"setting up servers in a new data center on Halloween"

That kind of problem seems remarkably common - the end of months and years can be peak times for businesses but it's also the kind of date that people pick for their project milestones ("we'll have the servers in by the end of the year").
To be fair, it lacks a lot more than that when compared to Evernote. Evernote is a bundle of great ideas, done horribly catastrophically badly.

1. Evernote has dual-language OCR of PDFs and images (and a few others crappy formats that normally shouldn't be used like .docx, .xlsx, etc). That's a great idea. DevonThink doesn't even have Japanese support (their licensed OCR only supports Western languages).

2. Uh... OK god dammit that is really the only feature that keeps me using Evernote's horrid apps. Shit.
although I'm sure they're still better than poor kids would be

Photos are everything man.

There are a tonne of average-to-poor looking girls on Tinder who have very good photos of themselves that paint them in a much more flattering light than they really deserve. Take a leaf out of their book.

Tinder is the most superficial distillation of dating out there, your entire judgement of the person is based on a few photos (and often just the first one).

You need 4 photos, show them in this order:

One full body shot of you with a clear image of your face,
one of you topless (if you have the body for it),
one of you looking cool with your friends, and one of you doing something you like, preferably some sort of adventurous hobby like climbing or diving

PAY TO GET PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS DONE. I can't emphasize this enough, more than anything else this will drastically improve your results.

The 'about me' field is almost irrelevant. Keep it to 3 sentences or less. When you get a match, push for a meetup at a bar (or your house if you feel bold) as soon as possible, preferably within 24 hours. Get their actual phone number within the first five messages. THE GIRL ALREADY LIKES YOU, there is no need to play silly games at this point.

I also use a Tinderbot to automatically like all the girls. I wrote my own version based off the work of somebody who reverse-engineered the API, my repo is here https://github.com/samphilipd/tinderzapper . When I feel like going on some dates, I just run that for a few days, unlike all the unattractive matches and push for meetups with the rest. It's a pure numbers game.

BELIEVE ME there are girls out there who will find you attractive and want to meet up with you, you simply have to sift through the junk to find them.

The above is pretty much exactly what I do. I'm only slightly above-average looking and very below-average height (5ft4). I do workout so I have a somewhat decent body. I've been on countless dates this year and got laid with 10-15 girls just through tinder.

Anyone can get a date on Tinder with professionally taken photos. In fact, most of the girls on there already know the importance of photos and are very skilled at showing photos that present them in the best possible light.
Linux systems on the net tend to be servers with lots of available outgoing bandwidth. So Linux systems are very valuable targets for the DOS enthusiast and are quite common. So chances are that this attack only targets Linux systems.

But, yeah, the headline is click bait. Linux systems are known to be quite secure so this is the old "Man Bites Dog" shtick.
Interestingly enough in the example he gave 303 x 13 I actually didn't look at the last digit to see that 5074 is wrong, I did an instant mental calculation of 300x13=3900 and saw that 5074 can't possibly be right before reading on.

So everyone has a different spidey sense.

Actually the example I was thinking of is the finder methods which require only an interface definition conforming to a naming convention. Bytecode is generated at runtime - there is no generated source to manage.

Not much of what Jhipster generates could be considered boilerplate - the application code is pretty DRY. I've used Rails off and on since 2005 and it is fairly comparable in that respect at this point though Java is more verbose of course.

It doesn't really secure users' data, since Google is able to read that data. Were it truly secure, it would all be encrypted with a high-entropy keys known only to the users.

People without backups could always choose to store their keys with Google, but people who want their data to actually be secure would be free not to.

It isn't the mutual selection alone, but that feature in combination with swiping (basically a first impression) and inability to go back make it substantially different than dating sites.

To my knowledge dating sites usually have pages of profiles you search though. If you see someone you select, but say you go through 5 pages and no one catches your eye but you're out of matches. You may be willing to go back through and lower your standards to make some matches.

This is also aided by Tinder being a more dynamic app. The number of people that are active(discoverable) changes day to day, whereas a dating site is essentially static; with only new users adding more potential matches.

I'm the creator of JHipster, thanks for the link :-)

Yes we do generate CRUD entities, from the database (SQL, Cassandra, MongoDB) to the view layer (AngularJS/Bootstrap). All this with security, caching, monitoring, documentation, tests... So this is very different from Play, Dropwizard or even vanilla Spring Boot (on top of which JHipster is built).

I'm not saying it's better or worse, just that it's a totally different beast: depending on your needs, JHipster can be a huge time-saver.
Considering that the "new operating system" is pretty much Chrome running over Linux without any Window Manager, I'm not that sure.
> The engineers in charge of these systems have been "at odds," which has created friction, according to The Information.

> Uber’s chief technology officer, Thuan Pham, later wrote to his staff that the mistake “reflects an amateurism with our overall engineering organization, its culture, its processes, and its operation.”

This makes it sound as if the two engineers in charge of the Node.js and Python systems are bickering over which technology stack is better and refuse to compromise. I get there is worry about career progression if your backend option loses, the glory of being the engineer in charge of the entire backend of Uber, and the different specs of different technologies. But to hold the entire company hostage seems like it would be a career-ending move to me, regardless of sides. Then again, I am not in management.
I use a combination of Sparkleshare, Emacs, Markdown, and an emacs mode named Deft to accomplish this. Deft autosaves my notes as I write them, and then Sparkleshare automatically syncs changes with the git server. It's pretty nifty.

I might use OneNote if its search could find text in attachments. But it cannot; it only supports searching the actual text contained in the note itself.

Part of the Evernote value proposition is being able to find things again (although Evernote's search interface is abysmally bad, and offers no way to narrow your search so as not have a huge number of irrelevant matches).
I've not read a lot of scientific information about the benefits of coffee, so I wonder: is it strictly the caffeine in the coffee, or is it a combination of the caffeine and the other chemicals in coffee? I've (mostly) weaned myself from caffeinated coffee, but I still drink several cups of decaf every day. Do I still get some of the purported health benefits?
What benefits would they see/get from using their own co-located servers instead of using VMs on a cloud provider?

For a fast-growing business, it would seem a huge win to not have to worry about physically scaling your infrastructure. And I can't imagine that their infrastructure size is so large (they're not, for example, indexing the internet) that they would get a huge cost savings from using their own hardware.

But certainly, I must be missing something?
Do the Nexus 5X or 6P finally have hardware encryption support ?

As Moxie Marlinspike pointed out in "The Fallacy Of The Crypto Contest" at http://thoughtcrime.org/blog/telegram-crypto-challenge/ these sorts of contests are rigged.

The challenge page says:

> Within the next three months we will give you access to a pCloud Challenge account, containing an encrypted folder. If you find out what is inside the Crypto Folder and send it back to us .. in decrypted state, we will give you $20,000

Marlinspike points out, regarding a different challenge set up with similar principles, that it's easy to construct a 'horrifically bad “secure” protocol that wouldn’t last a second in a real world environment, but becomes “unbreakable” when presented in the exact same framework' as the proposed rules.

"Contests like these are tools in the service of snake oil.".

Don't use encryption that isn't open to public inspection. Don't support snake oil encryption peddlers.

Fortunately this particular website's brain damage had a simple workaround. Some don't. And if they don't, I simply move on and forget about the site.

I agree.
And I'd add that the continuous compilation of the Play framework allows for a great, fast workflow. Even in combination with non-JVM compilation like for Typescript.

The last version comes with Slick integration which brings Ling-for-Sql style persistency to the JVM. In combination with support for Postgress JSON persistency that makes for a great fast prototyping stack.
I enjoy boredom every often in a while. Helps me put my thoughts in order and think more clearly, if I'm stressed it forces me to tackle and face whatever problem I'm having, and I'd also say it makes me more creative.
I tried to love the Trackpoint for years but I just can not get the hang of it. For me a trackpad always feels more natural and way faster, so a missing trackpad would be a complete dealbreaker.
More common? It shouldn't exist at all. The potential use cases for manipulating the selection are at best a minor feature and sometimes a serious usability bug.

Stop trying to give webpages control - any control at all - over the browser UI. The page gets to control just that (the page) and the framework around that page (the browser). Any violation of this a potential security problem. Any time the demarcation between "remote page" and "browser UI" is blurred, problems such as "phishing" attacks become easier.

If you want fancier UI than is possible from a web page, write a native app.
I generally find it wise to avoid calling engineering problems faced by other organisations trivial. There are often a lot of complicating factors that aren't obvious from an outside perspective.
If that's only me or me and a few experienced Scala developers I would use more cutting edge stuff - Akka HTTP. If the team is less experienced or have more experience with traditional web apps - I would go with Play framework. It's well supported, not difficult to get into.

We have a PoC that works with securepass (or the free form https://login.farm) that is able to swap username with the RFID tag id to open a door.

Basically:

- If you can solve k-sat in time (2-eps)^n, you've refuted SETH.

- If you can solve 3-sat in time (1+o(1))^n, you've refuted ETH.

- If you can solve 3-sat in time n^O(1), you've refuted P!=NP.

Since general k-sat is at least as hard as 3-sat, it follows that SETH is the strongest hypothesis (hence the name) and thus the most likely to fall. P!=NP is the weakest hypothesis and thus the most likely of the three to be true.

For first-time or occasional users things like that can get needlessly annoying, and if "it's just a tiny detail" is applied to everything, it quickly leads to "death by a thousand paper-cuts".

So yes, most people probably don't care about it, but IMHO good UX design should care about tiny details and look into small effects.

I've written FX trading algos, and I don't think it's so much to do with the fixing scandal.

For a long time now, FX has been a low margin business. It's just a guy on the end of a phone. Now they can't even use their one advantage, which is knowledge of flow, because of regulations about prop risk. So that guy on the phone, he's being replaced by a robot. At the end of the day, what does a market maker do? He provides prices and tries to keep risk steady. You can easily (*tm) write a program that does that.

The fixing thing, sure, it means something. It means you lose another income source, because now everyone will be afraid of getting caught. And rightly so.

But the writing was on the wall for the FX traders for a long time. Pretty much every trade under a few million bucks is done by a machine. To justify a phone call you're looking at maybe 30MM USD minimum. If you want to hide your trading, you can probably break up your big trade with an algo. It's also likely that if you have a big order, the guy on the desk is just hitting an algo as well.

Another benefit of automation is you get a load of data about how things are going. The banks will phone you and complain if they are losing money on your flow. They have stats about how profitable all the clients are. And they know if you are gaming their hedging algo.

I really doubt the figure that only 15% of trades were done by algo a year ago. Maybe a few jumbo orders skew it, but by ticket numbers I would think over 80% of trades are on some sort of automation.

You can very easily do DI without Spring. (yes I know Spring is more than DI) As the project grows you can simple add Spring if brings 'real' value.

You can defer the choice of data store very late in a project without hinder its progress.

I'm not anti-framework/tooling, I just want to make sure it is required before I add it.

Most, if not all, frameworks require some specific bootstrapping/configuration that is extra to the job at hand.

If for some bizarre reason you allow remote root logins over ssh be sure that that password is as strong as possible. Machine generated random strings are good, at least 12 characters to be sure.

If you turn off root logins but still allow user logins the remote attacking system will have no way to detect that fact and will still attempt to brute force you.
