I've worked for a government data center where they ran instances of Ultrix in a commercial VM to run old data processing software that ingested and barfed out CSVs that contained UUencoded blobs of image data. All this was written in a mixture of very very old Perl, shell scripts in some gawd-awful Ultrix shell CSH script, and C code full of weird -isms that made it difficult to port to anything made after the rise of mammals. This was of course mission critical. At least they virtualized it instead of continuing to run physical Ultrix boxes, which was apparently a huge fight with management.

A side dish of LULZ was that they were experimenting with moving the VMs to EC2, so there is probably Ultrix in EC2 now.

This stuff is really, really common in large "mature" industries and government.
Onfleet, San Francisco, On-site, Backend engineer

We're looking for a top-notch backend engineer, with the opportunity to grow into much more. Backend experience and/or experience with building RESTful APIs is a must. Frontend experience is a plus.

We're building a modular platform that solves the hard technical problems around fleets of mobile workforces (e.g. route optimization, simplified dispatch UX/UI, real-time location tracking, driver mobile apps for multiple platforms). We provide an end-to-end solution for assigning work, tracking drivers and driver performance, and providing a delightful end-user experience with automatic SMS updates including accurate ETAs and a map to track deliveries en route. Incumbent fleet management software is antiquated, pre-smartphone era, and expensive.

Our backend is built using the latest technologies, including Node.js, Redis, MongoDB, and WebSockets. Our product is mission-critical, so reliability and stability are critical.

As our third engineering hire, you would work very closely with our product-focused founding team to bring a perfect delivery management experience to SMBs and other delivery-centric tech companies, enabling them to scale their businesses and delight their customers.

More details here: https://onfleet.com/careers

Feel free to email our VP of Engineering m[at]onfleet.com with any questions you might have.
> you do not know what the student is doing on their laptop, nor is it your job to police what they do on their laptop; some students are using their laptop to enhance their learning experience, and some students will have come to rely on that enhancement

You're a teacher, so I trust you know what's best for your class. But I could rephrase "it's not your job to police..." as "just don't worry about it!"

The problem "just don't worry about!" doesn't address is the feeling of annoyance from perceived-disrepect (whether it's justified). The teacher wants to feel attention paid to him/her. Solutions that take the form, "ignore your needs!" don't last (I think they lead to burnout) because they don't address psychology.

I don't know the solution, but I'll hazard: teachers need more methods, better curricula, more support. Teach Like a Champion is the one of the best books on practical teaching, and on human relations I've ever read.

Unfortunately, "don't worry about it!" is as impractical as "teachers and society must improve!" But like I said, I don't know the solution.
> Yahoo is just a front end for Bing, so can't really be behind it.

Back when Apple Maps on iOS was just a front-end for Google Maps, many people found it to be considerably behind Google Maps as used through other mechanisms. Being a front-end for X doesn't mean you can't be behind X, or even ahead in UX.

None of Google's logos seem particularly good or interesting to me. From a business standpoint, pre-school style design is probably the image they want to portray; that Google is very simple and easy to use. If you're going to criticize the logo, criticize it on it's merits as a logo: giving the first impression you want to foster in it's users. Not just whether or not you think it looks prettier.
This is a great example of the house of cards all our network systems are built on top of.

Imagine this scenario: you maintain a network of web servers, database servers, file servers, etc. They all combine to generate a large website used by tens of millions of users every month. One day you are just doing a cursory look over a certain server, but you see something strange. Someone is logged in to your server. And they have a Russian IP address.

What do you do? Obviously, the first step is you login to your edge routers and null route all of Russia. GFTO. Next, you've got an idle session on one server. What were they doing?

How can you reconstruct what they were doing? bash history? maybe. Network forensics? Your network probably isn't recording every historical connection between servers—99.9999% of the time useless—but critical in this case. File system access? Your file system probably isn't logging every historical access—useless 99.99999% of the time—but would be really freaking useful in this case.

So, you investigate their history, double check some database logs, check netstat, check lsof, and in the end, you really have no idea what they were doing at all. Our systems don't leave enough bread crums around to reconstruct even interior hostile activities, much less semi-intelligently disallowing Google to not index confidential information when accidentally left exposed.
What fight? The way those battles are waged in large, slow companies is that the political decisions are made over your head, without your input, and decided before you're made aware of them. It's a lot harder to try and fight a decision when the decision-makers don't know or care what you have to say.
And on the scale Google operates on it'll save quite a bit for them as well to serve it.

Subject: HN Who is hiring > recruiting@sendgrid.com > if you don't see anything that you could directly apply to.
I'm wondering whether the use of

ingenious (adj)
(of a person) clever, original, and inventive.

in place of

indigenous (adj)
originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native.

is a Freudian slip or sarcasm.

Edit:
Never mind; they used it with in-house

They were talking about results - so I'd argue UX/UI was an irrelevant issue. They want relevant results, which Google is increasingly getting worse at (with Bing no better) and "Yahoo far behind".

Yahoo would be equivalent to Bing in regards to search results.

Context is important.

TL;DR:
The results obtained in Run 1 (which ended in 2013) from CMS and ATLAS have now been combined in a new joint analysis of the branching ratios of the most common Higgs boson decay products. The results show no deviations, even at the speculative level, from the predictions of the Standard Model. But uncertainties are being reduced significantly, so if there is a deviation from the SM, Run 2 data might find it.

For me, the biggest takeaway from this is how mind-bogglingly large amounts of data the LHC produces. The LHC Higgs Cross Section Working Group is big enough that they're organized into 11 subgroups, and these guys are still crunching away at data produced more than two years ago. Run 2 will finish in 2017, so they will still be crunching that data in 2020, and the LHC will be running until at least 2030.
I didn't think they could make it look any more as if it were aimed at 5-year-olds, but they've done it.

Seriously, though, it's probably a better logo. It's simpler and has a more weight while the old one was kind of overly light and spindly. I wouldn't be surprised if the next step in the logo's evolution would ditch the candy colors and go with a single color, in which the new logo would look just fine. That might strike some as sacrilege but it would work much better as a logo and look less like a set of plastic toys for preschoolers.
"definitely agree with this, but how could you specifically change the laws in this case such that they are still, by some measure, "fair" and "just"?"

This is a really deep question, which is part of why I dropped the entire discussion on the topic in my initial post so I wouldn't get too sidetracked.

One problem we have is that if we can encode laws into computer programs, which is to say, basically math, we also become subject to the problems that creates. For instance, raise your hand if you enjoy min-maxing in an RPG or MMO or something. Now, keep your hands raised and add a big evil grin for me if you'd love the opportunity to minmax real laws with such impunity.

In theory, even human enforcement is a computational system which could in theory be attacked the same way, but in its own weird way, its own enormous complexity and frankly at times random enforcement prevents the really terrible gaming of the law by preventing an attacking entity from fully accurately simulating the system for the purposes of attacking it.

(I said something that may trigger some knee-jerk reactions in some people about "gaming" the system. But however bad you think it is in the real world... and I would agree that it is bad in many places... it has nothing on the gaming you can do on something specified with programmatic precision and with no human in the loop to prevent truly stupid states from emerging. This isn't making your way to the top over the years by bribery and flattery, this is waking up one day and discovering that one person has literally all the money now.)

Google Logo Museum
I think the Alphabet logo is based on Product Sans mentioned here https://design.google.com/articles/evolving-the-google-ident... (The lower-case ‘a’ is distinctive.) I wonder whether abc.xyz will switch the body text now that the new Google style is public.
Misleading title. Doctors in the UK prescribe active components, not brands.
As soon as I saw the title, I thought of the furor when Gingrich and Clinton discovered that the FAA was using vacuum tube computers and radar in the air traffic control system. http://govinfo.library.unt.edu/npr/library/clinton.htm The foreign (sole) vacuum tube supplier that Clinton mentioned was Russia. Oh, the embarrassment!

I knew that there were some delays in rolling out the the replacement system, so I did some googling to see when it actually occurred. My god, it's now. We are in the middle of it. The upgrade was responsible for the recent air traffic meltdown. Please somebody, point out my flawed research skills. I cant believe this.
Slack Poker Bot
You could imagine something like some churrascarias use: you have a little badge near you that shows green when you're good, or you turn it over to the red side when you need help.
What's most interesting to me is not so much the logotype itself (which is nice; the tilted 'e' is the perfect sans reference to the angled stroke in Catull), but that one of the top-tier identity components is a unified loading spinner.

While Apple, Facebook, and Microsoft all have their own branded spinners, Google has probably had both the most visually adventuresome and the most inconsistent spinners across all its products. Beyond unifying these, though, one can see this as a step past mere unification, and an attempt to take ownership of an unavoidable part of the cloud paradigm, latency. It's a pretty interesting move in terms of branding-UX coordination.

This could easily be solved by making a random selection of jurors and alternates from the available pool. have everyone reporting for selection draw a numbered ticket from a hat.

No names, no faces, no questions about what you do for a living, nope, none of that. You get who you asked for, and without the bullshit at the beginning where the lawyer and da (and their jury consultants) work to stack the jury in their favour.

You want peers? Well, any random 12 out of the "random" pool selection ought to about cover it.

And think of all the time it will save. I've been called and ended up sitting there for hours on end. It's a foolish waste of everyone's time. Everyone should report, draw their number, hangout for a bit until they know the total of jurors and alternates they need for each trial, and Bam call the number and send the rest home. I figure it should take a couple of hours at most before there's no more bored disgruntled crowd sitting around.
