The Future of Cloud Collaboration
Collaboration is essential; it provides team members within an organization the opportunity to work together on a particular task. In the past, when workers wanted to collaborate on specific documents, they needed to meet in person or communicate through local user portals......http://www.livetiles.nyc/blog/the-future-of-cloud-collaboration/
Since the hash is derived purely from the password, it demonstrably does not have any more entropy than the password.

Before you mention the salt - the salt is only useful if it if available. The client needs to know the salt in order to perform the calculation, therefore your attacker will also know the salt, so that doesn't count as entropy in the hash, either.
And why would this be any more danger than of him using it while there?

Note that if declared, it's legal to transport unloaded in checked baggage in the US, and unless things have drastically changed the airline etc. isn't going to wonder if possession is legal for you at your destination.
What is a "SF tech bro"?

It's a scapegoat boogieman. A tool of techies in SF to manage their cognitive dissonance.

There are things everyone else in the city hates the startup/tech scene at large for. There are also people progressives hate for their not-progressive-enough views, and some of them have the gall to work in tech. When either of those (or any other number of criticisms) are stereotypically "bro" (or close enough), the people within startups/tech can blame it on the "tech bros."

It is meant as a slur. But bros are just a convenient and useful stereotype to blame. If it wasn't them, it'd be something else. "Tech bros" just happens to be OK to openly deride, because the identity has no social power within "tech" (whatever that means).
Nope, no data other than comparing the money being spent on the problem with my perception from the trenches. This is a human problem. That is, generally speaking the person in reception of help needs to work just as hard as the agency providing help for it to WORK.

911, in my area, is used for a lot more than "emergencies" unfortunately... we are the ultimate real-time problem solvers. "Man down" & "sick person" calls are generally not emergencies and they tend to be our regulars, which are generally homeless.
I've flagged this for the low quality of the discussion it is engendering.

Please post the study.
I hate that gentrification has become this bogeyman. It is the effects of gentrification that can sometimes be negative.
I'm here for this ^
Yes it's great for complaining to companies (except maybe Google), but the guy put a '.' before each tweet so that all his followers would see his complaints too. That's the type of person that would see a homeless person and say I need to tell everyone about the 'riff-raff' I just saw in an American urban center.

(And to your point, I personally haven't had that issue with transferring my accounts on Authenticator, but maybe it's different on iOS.)
I'm looking at Graylog right now.
The most telling quote for me was “The two men also differed over whether to address employee morale by re-pricing stock options to the new lower valuation, according to people familiar with the matter. Mr. Conrad favored the move, but Mr. Dalgaard believed it would train employees to expect a re-pricing any time the company’s fortunes changed.”

So the “we support founders” mantra may also mean we support founders and ourselves at the expense of employees. Despite all Conrad’s miss-steps, such as the ill-mannered Quora response, I now have a new respect for him. At least he was trying to fight for the employees. Sad to see a16z in this light. With fantasy valuations crashing to reality, repricing options should become the standard. Or you can follow the current SV playbook and hope employees don’t really understand what’s going on with equity.
Remove the sugar and starches from your diet, and be physically active. You'll need ample salt, maybe even more than you'd expect.
Then again: "The more I practice the luckier I seem to become".
That line perfectly articulates how I feel about most of the complaining I see on social media.
That's not his point ...

Someone may indeed include a firearm in their "EDC" but there should be a constant and sharp distinction between that item and all the rest.

If you are not hyper aware of a firearm you are carrying, you should not be carrying that firearm - no matter how routine it is.
Which other people have also done and so you just ended up being the lucky one who got it.
Not yet, but I'll give it a shot. How's sharding/scalability?
The issue my be complex but you don't see the same thing in most of Europe or Canada which suggests it's not immune to government action.
Let me rephrase my question. I wasn't asking how you can have it period, but how you can have it work. Of course governments can always try legislating insane policies, but if they go against basic tenets of economics, or science, or what have you, then they won't work.

It's pretty clear in this situation that they aren't working.
The cost of a Twitter-like web app development. Why it takes time and money
Awesome, thanks for the clarification. This might help (if I ever go back to using logstash at this point!).

Yeah, my point was more that they accepted my issue, but there's no action and there are more than 600+ other open issues. Seems Elastic is too busy branding and pushing breaking changes to their APIs.

I do sincerely appreciate your clarifications and comments on this one, though.

I used to write a lot of personal Python scripts (ie ~/bin). I mainly did this because I seem to always screw up bash scripts and just can't remember all the conditional flags ie ([[-z ]] and error handling with bash for me has always been tricky.

However in the last couple of years I have dropped Python in favor of Groovy in part because I know the JVM and its plethora of libraries so well. Groovy is a highly underrated language. Really my only complaint is the startup time is not nearly as fast as Python but it does seem faster than say Clojure scripts. Also one of the things that I have to say I sort of think Java got right is that it has always been backward compatible (I know this was sort of impossible with Python given its not really a byte code language). That is I really don't have to worry if I write Groovy in a pre Java 5 (ie without generics) where as with Python I wasn't sure if I should write new scripts in 3 or 2.

The other annoying thing albeit far less than Ruby is dependencies with Python. Groovy has a complete bad ass way of just declaring dependencies in a script (@Grab) and they will automatically be downloaded. I have yet to see a scripting language that does this (ie dependency install on demand).

BTW since apparently any time I mention Java-like-tech on any HN post I seem to get downvoted... I really really love Python. This was not to denigrate Python or that Groovy is better than Python.
Don't Let Them “Gamify” Your Life
In my city, most of the programs to help homeless people have waitlists on the order of years.
Loggly is a five digit monthly bill at our present logging volume. No thanks.
Ok, so I have a new interview question for any startup job: "Will you reprice options should valuations decrease?" They say No, I walk.
So I should be able to write a program or one already exists to check if its a Go program and what its dependencies are.
> sleep in the cold

Are we talking about the same city here? I'd call SF "occasionally chilly" at best. That's part of why so many homeless people gravitate to CA; if you're sleeping outdoors there are many, many worse climates for it.

> The coldest day of the year is December 26, with an average low of 44°F and high of 55°F.

> You cannot be secure while offering easy 'backdoors' into your own account at the same time. People will just have to be more careful (e.g. by associating a backup U2F key with their account), or go through a real-world ID process otherwise (like banks typically do).

Sure, but by that logic the most secure system is offline. It's the same issue with corporate networks requiring "complex" passwords and changing of them once a month. Sure, it's technically more secure, but the end result is the office genpop writes a post-it with their current password which defeats the whole purpose.

The most secure real-world system is the one you can keep using with its designed security solutions, regardless of its (low) theoretical security level.
This is true and an angle I have not thought about before (though I have first hand experienced it).

As an example I don't think good quality non-factory-farmed red meat is bad for a person, despite a fair amount of research on both sides of the topic. But since switching from couch me to exercise-a-holic me.. My relationship with red meat has changed. Had a grass fed burger Monday for the first time in a while, was up all night. Did not agree with me so much.

On the other hand, 1 beer or whatever amount of salt I consume seems to have no impact on me the next morning - happy to hope out of bed at 7 and go run.

Humans are not racecars so not sure I buy the analogy as given.. I wonder what the real reason for this is? Maybe a better broscience guess is that so much of your energy is devoted to repairing "damage" you did the to body during the day, your body has less spare energy to devote to processing crap.

Agency is a basic component of having a reasonable life.

Taking it away is literally dehumanizing. So if it is to be done, it should be done with great care.

(I'm addressing your 2,3,4th paragraphs, I think not heating the outdoors is fine)
I did a lot of research on this a while back and concluded that, no, there don't appear to be. I was hoping that Nest, despite some of their shortcomings, would try to tackle this market. Seemed like a more obvious market for them to move into, as opposed to smoke alarms.
in addition to all of those, there are still plenty of ways to create weak passwords with at least 8 characters. Dictionary words, 12345678, and so on.

You can make a smarter password strength meter, like zxcvbn[1], but its tricky and depends on many heuristics so I don't think it would be ideal for a password standard.

Insurance is important, but that doesn't mean a license should be legally required, for a few reasons:

1. Ethically, I think that if you choose to do business with an untrained, inexperienced broker, then the consequences are on you. In fact, there may be legitimate reasons to do so, which brings us to point 2.

2. If the members of a profession control entry into that profession, which is always the case with occupational licensure, then those members have a strong economic incentive to construct barriers to entry. More and more irrelevant requirements will be added over time. Certification protects against this tendency while still providing all of the supposed informational benefits of licensure. If certification requirements become too crazy and irrelevant, the price differential between certified and uncertified professionals will increase, and consumers will start to use uncertified professionals instead, forcing the certification requirements back down to sanity.

That's not the law they broke, that's just a regulation that the insurance board is conducting an internal review of.

The law they broke was selling insurance without the use of unlicensed brokers.
If you give them housing they may still have problems but at least they won't be homeless.
>A lot of them prefer this "lifestyle"

I used to also think that many homeless "preferred the lifestyle of homelessness" but I recently learned of a town in Canada (Medicine Hat) that found it more cost effective to house the homeless. This myth that people prefer to be homeless was shattered and this town found that nearly all homeless were able to reintegrated back into having their own places. The mayor was skeptical at first now, he says, “It makes financial sense. That’s how I had my epiphany and was converted. You can actually save money by giving somebody some dignity and giving them a place to live.”

Despite what they recommend, I'd move to G1GC over CMS. Did wonders for our stability. This is on ES2.1.0 & OpenJDK 1.8.0-u80, IIRC.
By "bold" I'm also referring to your use of the words "freaking" and "ridiculous".

1. This was also said about JS before people just went ahead and wrote JITs for it. Are you sure what they're saying isn't "we can't make a JIT for python" rather than "nobody can make one"? Because that's how it turned out with JS.

2. If given the choice, do you think the community would turn down a JIT to avoid making the reference implementation more complex? To whose benefit is that requirement? I've never heard people complain about other languages that they didn't have an easy-to-read reference implementation.

3. I've not heard this reported as a problem in practice for languages that have a JIT. It's usually toy programs where the JIT overhead is significant and they're so small and short-running that neither slowdown or extra memory is usually an issue.

4. Not everything that runs on cPython runs on PyPy so that's not a choice I'm necessarily able to make.

I'm not saying there aren't reasons to not have a JIT in cPython. But it's a choice not a natural law. And it's not ridiculous to suggest that they could make a different choice if they wanted, as JS eventually did.

I think "hyper aware" takes it a little too far; more aware than a reasonable person is of his wallet, certainly, but depending on how you carry it (ideally such that you're in essentially no danger of violating Rule 2), as long as it's sufficiently concealed that you're not in danger of someone snatching it, it should become a routine thing. A very safe routine thing if done right, but as Massad Ayoob comments in his great safety video that there is a danger of relaxing too far and treating it like "Fluffy".

I certainly put more awareness into my surroundings, which could be key to my using it successfully if needed.
Quite to the contrary - I feel that we should strive to provide excellent opportunities to all. I feel no need to provide a comfortable life straight-away, though - if we've provided the opportunity, the walk between being poor and living comfortably is something that I'm fine with leaving to individuals.

And the fact that you think my friends are living 'just above the breadline' is somewhat interesting to me; I would disagree. The own, not rent, a home. They have and cashflow a child (a very expensive thing these days, and considering the cost to society and the planet, it should be a privilege). Not only do they have food, but they never want for it (granted, they can't spend $15 on fast food for the family whenever they don't feel like cooking). They have a car. If that's 'on or slightly above the breadline', then we might not even be using a common vocabulary.
Even though Justin seems like an asshole, I wish the Washington post and other news sources would try to objectively report the news instead of joining the bandwagon and making fun of the views of others. This type of subjective reporting doesn't lead to civilized discussion where you actually address the other sides views, not their delivery.
I was already using go-plus, but I think the addition of goimports is something recent — it wasn't there when I last looked. Thanks for the pointer.

I know that "go vet" can warn about this, my point was that it's amazing that Go refuses unused imports but allows shadowing. It reveals a very skewed idea of what is important when compiling.
Reading (but not the news) and having diverse friendships could also work.
It does seems like anyone under 40 is now a millennial.

The most recent clear definition I have heard is anyone born between 1980 and 2000. So anyone ~16 and under is a new generation, currently called Gen. Z, but they may get another name soon.

It does seem like the media is absorbing Gen X into millennials now for some reason. I don't know why. Baby Boomers vs everyone else?
Yes, clearly this man doesn't know more about homeless people than the average person walking the streets of SF! Show me your published peer-reviewed statistics or GTFO. /s
I mostly agree with this theory. But I would argue that this model applies to humans before we migrated out of Africa. Certain human races have dramatically higher athletic performance while others have lower performance. Take the Olympic performance in track and field between Jamaicans and the Chinese.

You will note that despite a targeted program designed to win as many gold medals as possible China did incredibly poorly in track. I would argue that this is evidence for the fact that while the human foot may be vestige designed for long distance running, other factors such as cardiovascular endurance and physical strength have already begun evolving away from this design. The change is so recent that I believe the degree of this divergence depends on your race.
I don't think it can possibly ever work. The question then is why Venezuela is doing it, and the answer to that seems to be that the Venezuelan government is insane.
Freezing is a form of processing, but it is a very light processing.

Take some Oats off the ground. Cool unprocessed. Mill it a tiny bit to help it cook more easily into steel cut oats. Minimally processed. Grind it down into instant oatmeal - Heavily processes. Add some chemicals and put in a test tube to turn into some weird kind of artificial sweetener? Highly processed.

I try to go as low on the chain as possible, without killing myself. I don't enjoy eating oats right off the ground, or boiled as is (unsure if we can even digest raw oats, never tried). Steel cut I do enjoy - so I stop there.

So back to fruit. If you can get fresh fruit great. If not, frozen is pretty close. If you have to revert to fruit rollups? Probably went too far.

* There is a debate that frozen fruits can actually be better than frush fruit, as fresh fruit is picked unripe and ripened in a truck - whereas frozen fruit can be picked when fully ripe. In this case, the slightly processed fruit may end up being better than the unprocessed fruit. Overall though this is the exception, for 99% of food - the more you do to it the more you lose.
My bet is that lots of people think like this (with similar levels of selfishness and narcissism), but wouldn't dare say it in a public forum.

Also, can people just move out of SF? I don't care which group it is (tech, or the people who have been displaced directly or indirectly by tech), but it seems like at least one group needs to just move out.

San Francisco has a $156M annual budget to address homelessness. That's not a small amount of money. First let's make sure that it's being spend efficiently.
To add to that hypocrisy, there's also the outrage when jobs go to the most impoverished in other countries, rather than be given to comparatively wealthy westerners at the expense of both the companies and foreign communities.

If you're single w/ no dependents and making $54k or more a year, you are already in the top 1% of the global population by income.[1] Makes a lot of the anti-1% stuff come off as extremely hypocritical.

Fundamentally, python3 fixes some of the serious WATs in python2 and makes it easier to write high quality and maintainable software. For a pretty quick overview take a look at:

https://migrateup.com/main-difference-python-3/

Perhaps if python3 annoys you more than makes you say, "Hey, this prevents lots of latent bugs I might have easily shipped to production before, cool!", then you need to learn python a bit better and re-evaluate what is annoying about it.

What we can't do is just let an AI build itself in terms of knowledge. Sure, we direct our kids when we put them into K-12 and beyond schooling, but the first 2 to 3 years they're with their parents watching, interacting, messing up, and so on. Kids just learn on their own. Some of that is clearly instinct, but at some point how do we inject such an instinct into a neural net? What would that look like to an AI? I think that's the problem here.

So this guy went to school, worked hard, and now makes enough money to pay rent and feed himself in one of the most expensive cities in the US. small golf clap

His main fault here is assuming that this also means, while ironically citing free market economics, that he's rich enough to have some sort of right not to see homelessness, mental illness, and poverty, day to day. That's a whole other level of wealth and power right there. Mid-priced (in San Francisco, anyway) restaurant? $20 theater tickets? That gives him some sort of insulating privilege from life? If you're Barack Obama, yes, the intrusion of a drug-addled crazy person bursting past secret service and into the restaurant you're dining in may be cause of serious concern. If you're a Saudi oil merchant, you can pay to stay at and go to places with tighter security, or bring your own. Heck, you can afford move to and work from areas with fewer of these problems in the first place, commuting around on your own private jet, being carefully shuttled from one multi-million dollar private residence to the other.

Your personal wealth doesn't give you the right to see and interact only with people who are within your same circles of success. If you want to start judging the personal success of others, holding yourself above them, and claiming your right to class insularity, there are probably some billionaires out there who would laugh in your face, if they cared enough, which they don't, because they'd rather they didn't see you at all.
Meh. When I was an athlete I had a horrible diet which consisted of mostly boxed pasta and I ate junk food every day. Didn't hurt my athletic ability noticeably.
