After a nuclear accident in France you will be able to read the same about the "safety record" in France. The safety record of eg. Fessenheim does not sound reassuring.
Paying for the privilege of seeing adverts. So fundamentally MS.

I'm so glad Win7 will be supported until 2020.
Its pretty cool to see this being done in ASP.NET Core and TypeScript.

Microsoft sure has come a long way over the past few years. I'm glad to see that developers are embracing it too!
Above market rate? As someone who has vigorously engaged in this process for literally years (due to the needs of myself and also my friends), the best I have ever seen is $800, which is the service I ended up using. Do you have any examples to point to?

One of AMP's goals seems to be ensuring that websites aren't noticeably slower just because they have ads on them.

I'm from Tunisia, a country with heavy currency controls, where it is actually impossible to send money out of the country. Of course, if you're a foreign company etc. you can, but not for regular citizens.

So what does that mean? No credit cards online, no bank transfers, no PayPal, and so on. I hope this service can somehow help aspiring local entrepreneurs.
That's not the only angle here. Apple was asked to aide the FBI in attacking a phone, not to design bad crypto. (They may have also been asked to design bad crypto, but that's not what is happening here)
Small thing - pay attention to that advice, it really aint a pretty time to come.

Content alone loads faster than loading content plus ads.

Making one DNS request is faster than making several, including ones for domains related to advertising.

There are the speed gains that Google can offer and then there are ones that are under the user's control, which Google will never offer, unless they change their business model.

Not requesting ads makes my user experience faster.

Experiment: Disable Javascript for Google searches and what happens? Do the ads still load?
Actually, that is a popular misconception. Airlines have been highly profitable for the past few years. It is directly related to the degraded consumer experience. More capacity discipline and new ancillary fees have really boosted margins. Also, the cost of fuel has plummeted.
Great work Eduardo!
I'll answer that this way, you don't want to allow the middle to get too [unsustainably] thin while the ends bulge. There needs to be a balance.

I still remember the last time I used Windows (outside of a VM for testing.) I had been given a Surface to develop on for my video game. At one point, it started playing an advertisement as a part of the operating experience. My reaction:

1. What is happening?

2. Why is this happening?

3. How do I shut this off?

4. Who the hell decided this was a good idea?

5. Where's the nearest trash bin?
Of course criminals can use encryption. I didn't say they couldn't. I said it was security vs. security, because there are security issues on both sides. Duh?

FOSS isn't free. You are being "paid for" by other people donating their time to make many, many people happy.

Why is WebRTC bloat? A lot of people us it for video calls nowadays. Pocket is a neat solution for avoiding having lots of tabs eating your memory, which in turn ends up causing page swapping and messing with your experience.

That's alright, it means in 99% cases it's just a very small javascript file on your disk. No harm done.

Why Price Adjustment Policies Are Secretly Great for Retailers: Part I
Since A/C and heat run off the same battery pack that moves the car, compromising remote climate control can be more than just a nuisance. Someone can ensure that you wake up, or leave work, to find your battery has no charge left and you can't get where you need to go. It's like being able to siphon your neighbor's gas tank, while their car is parked in their garage, via an app.
The purpose of incorporating in the US is just to facilitate opening a US bank account. Given the likely very different circumstances of Atlas members, DE is a reasonable choice that would cause the fewest problems for participants. I do wonder what kind of payment volume is reasonable before it makes sense to touch the US. Also if I am building on top of Stripe as an essential vendor, do I want them to control my very corporate structure itself? Hm...
Anyone who has been cursed with using anything related to CarWings might not be surprised by this. I swear their backend is running on some intern's personal laptop. That feature where you can preheat your car from your phone? Be sure to allow a few minutes to do that. Start the app, wait 30 seconds for it to log in. Go to "Climate". Oh, shoot, it thinks the heat's still on (the app does a pathetic job of managing state). Click "Turn Off". Wait another 30 seconds (or more) while it round-trips to the car. Click "Turn On". Wait another 30 seconds. Go to car, expecting it to be warm. Open car door to discover that it's stone cold.

That's just one example. Nissan said they'd charge for CarWings after three years. Going on almost five years later, we've yet to receive a bill. Nissan knows if they tried to charge for CarWings, they'd have three paying customers because no one else would pay for that crap.

With all its warts, I would have said nothing much would surprise me were a security hole were found. But this is just astounding. The prior API at least required creds. So they took an API that had some modicum of security, discarded that and just use a string that's visible from the outside of every vehicle? Picture me with my lower jaw hanging between my knee caps.
It was sold to the public as a "free" upgrade.

"Free" in that context is what I am referring to.
Personally, I've used LinkedIn for recruiting tech talent, being recruited and most recently, doing biz dev (aka sales).

Stray observations:
1. LinkedIn has too many products like sales navigator that attempt to force you through a specific workflow. While it can work, it feels a lot like a misguided tracking system.

2. LinkedIn is most useful as an online resume. Whenever I am meeting someone new or want a refresher, I check LinkedIn. I think everyone does this in North America. This doubles as a useful social sign in tool for biz apps.

3. Older people (40+) in non tech positions respond surprisingly often to InMail. They respond far more often than young techies (who probably get too many messages). This is surprising and extremely useful for my job.

4. LinkedIn needs contact management in context of career. For example: simply stating when you made this contact is crucial.

5. LinkedIn needs a way to show how active a profile is or at least indicate if a profile is no longer responsive. There are millions of LinkedIn profiles that are inactive but LinkedIn encourages you to pay to message them.

6. There needs to be an indicator for how close you are to a specific contact. 99% of the time your mutual contacts are useless. This is especially true for "active users" like myself who see no major disadvantage personally for adding as many contacts as possible.

My whole point is that LinkedIn has an extremely valuable service. It is missing some features and product focus. Many of my above suggestions also help refocus LinkedIn's integrity.

Overall LinkedIn falls into this strange low integrity (in this case, spammy) but somehow successful company. The question is are they going to clean up their act. I think they will.
I live in the US. I get connection requests from Nigerian princesses and London bankers. Not sure which set of people would be more fun to hang out with on a Saturday afternoon.
Too bad about Intel dropping support for Skylake and newer CPUs on Windows 7.
Part of the reason for this is that most banks, due to the Patriot Act, require a physical presence in order to fulfill their interpretation of their Know Your Customer duties. Am curious to see how Stripe plans to get around this as the precious few services currently on offer are of the 'friend of a friend' wink-wink nudge-nudge type.
Look no further than the source. Who is TC writing for? Certainly not my girlfriend. Certainly not the founder of my former marketing agency.
Looks nice. I would like to see more links to original sources, to find out what exactly the event is about. For example, the "Blackbird New York" events at this theater are not live music performances: https://etrigg.com/location/belasco-theatre-new-york-new-yor...

"Blackbird" is a Broadway play, but it took some searching to figure it out: http://www.newyorkcitytheatre.com/theaters/belascotheater/th...
I don't like the fact that it uses an external API. I don't like a third party (other than my mail host) to have access to my email password and messages.
No. Whatever backdoor you enable for the US government can be used by other governments. When traveling internationally I would rather just deal with the minuscule increase in terrorism risk in exchange for a phone that can't be decrypted by anyone but me.
They respond quickly if you're doing $80k a month in business with them, in my experience. Besides which, PayPal has way too many caveats, including a different rate for Amex and an additional 1% for international cards, according to the page you linked.

Has anyone actually check into if those settings could actually prevent Tesla from connecting to your car?

I'm not concerned about that end API, I am concerned about the company being able to manipulate my car without my knowledge or permission.
> That's a political decision, not a technical regression.

It's both. Private supersonic flights are no longer available, and it is more of a pain in the ass to get on the inferior flights that are available.

I could go on, but it's moot -- the only point I'm here to make is that progress always been paired with regression, and it's always going to be a personal decision as to whether the tradeoffs were good ones.
Thinking about it further it only affects one lookup direction. Name -> Face is incredibly difficult for me, but Face -> Name is a lot easier (and really the reason I didn't need to worry as much as I did).
The form of your argument is: Tesla says 19th century scientists have flawed thinking about alternating current, Tesla is a 19th century scientist, therefore Tesla has flawed thinking about alternating current.

Why not ask professors at your university for opportunities on campus to do research in the fields you're interested in? This would be infinitely better than only doing MOOCs on your own (which you can also do on the side) because you are 1) receiving guidance from professors and/or grad students, 2) possibly getting paid, 3) have something concrete to put on your resume.

The thing with doing MOOCs on your own is it seems easy to get lazy and end up wasting a lot of time with nothing to show on your resume.
Absolutely. Just that I've been renting rooms for years and the most I have yet paid while single - admittedly, I can be stingy - is 300 euros a month, in Berlin, all bills included. I've lived in 8 countries too, so this is not an isolated experience.

The term "Glass Ceiling" was created to help discuss the difficulties for advancement by women and minority / upwardly mobile individuals in the workplace. I'd venture a guess HN is likely stratified to a predominately middle-aged or younger demographic (US), albeit with a significant number of professionals with decades of longevity with technology. So, not the primary target of the concept, but a group that definitely has grown up with the concept being discussed as a social/professional issue.

However, outside of technology fields, from personal experience and numerous discussions with peers (anecdotes), I think I finally hit the right term to describe a different 'advancement' conundrum: "The Grey Ceiling."

To put the idea in blunt terms, there's no room for advancement and career development when the prior generation(s) are stuck in the workforce for whatever reason(s) - lack of retirement savings, dependent adult children or being part of the 'Sandwhich Generation' or significant debt accumulated over the years.

The Grey Ceiling has no incentive to assist up and coming professionals to grow, to increase their income, or become peers in the corporate environment. The Gray Ceiling sees youth as a threat - insofar as if a younger worker gets a raise it's less monies available for themselves. The Gray Ceiling is not a 'guidebook' or 'conspiracy' to keep the younger professionals from advancing, but rather simply a result of self-interest amongst a cohort of people.

Of course there are dozens of firms that take on mentorship and development type programs. Like becoming an i-Banking Analyst. Of course there's light at the end of the 80 hour work week tunnel!

gog.com is the best option out there in my opinion. A strict no DRM stance, with sales on par with Steam's. You can download the installation binaries once and install offline as many times as you like with no extra effort, so there's no worries about losing your entire collection when a Russian script kiddy hijacks your Steam account to facilitate Counterstrike item scams and then Steam bans your account and says "we will no longer respond to further inquiries and consider this matter to be closed".
I didn't even realize that it was an advertisement. But if it is, it's not the first one. The Beatles images shown in December were then probably also technically ads for the just-released-on-streaming Beatles catalog.

You can incorporate as an LLC and elect to be taxed as an S-Corp.
Parts of each of the first eight amendments, leaving aside the third, have been incorporated against that states. But not the entirety of all of them. For example the Grand Jury clause off the Fifth Amendment and the Excessive Fines clause of the Eight Amendment have not been incorporated.

The Ninth Amendment has sometimes been used as a partial basis of modern sexual privacy law (see penumbras and emanations) and inasmuch as those doctrines also apply to the state I guess you could say that the Ninth has kind-of, sort-of been (partially?) incorporated. It wouldn't make any sense to try to incorporate the Tenth Amendment.
Oh man, it's absolutely true for FOSS, unless you develop FOSS purely because of idealogical reasons, Richard Stallman-style. FOSS development can be turned into reputation and popularity, which can be turned into cash. It's much easier to get your startup off the ground (or find a good job or decent clients as a contractor, etc.) if you have 10,000 Twitter followers, because you write popular FOSS.
Wow, can you imagine if these companies kept their original logo's?
All these issues you mentioned are solved by using IRCCloud or Quassel – I currently have a backlog for the channels I’m in via Quassel back to 2014 – available in the app, over the webapp, via the program on Windows, Mac and Linux.

>>However, Apple is a neutral third party that holds information needed in an investigation.

No, they may have the technical ability to weaken a product they made, which may hold information needed in the investigation. They already provided the information they actually have access to (the iCloud backups).

If they are indeed forced to do this, I expect the market cap of AAPL will drop significantly (billions of dollars, most likely) to reflect the weakened security of their product. Is that a reasonable thing for the government to require of a neutral third party?

Yes. This is such a specific use case that most workers don't follow.

This is interesting, and has made me think about the recruiters that contact me.

Early in my career I thought I wanted to be a project manager, so I tailored my CV to junior project manager jobs and uploaded it to several job sites. I haven't really used job boards since then.

Now, several years later, I am regularly emailed by recruiters about senior PM / programme manager jobs. I've never understood why, since I've never indicated any interest in this type of job.

It's almost as if they have obtained an old CV and extrapolated to the type of jobs they think I would be interested now, years later.

I'm possibly being paranoid, but your story made me think!

HSM - Hardware Security Module?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_security_module
Waterproof and warmth aren't usually a useful thing to mix. Because when you really need it to be water-proof you likely don't care that much for the insulation (although you do care about wind-resistance), where as when it's really cold - it really makes no difference whether it's waterproof or not.

I tend to get a light non-insulated (but wind-resistant) shell and a light down-jacket - which in my experience works under all but the most extreme conditions.
