Love love love that this is a K/Q/erlang/APL/J inspired language that uses common English.

Have you started on the JS translation yet? I suppose it would need to allocate sparse arrays in order to keep performance reasonable? How do you see that going? I would definitely use it and might be able to help if I can find the time.
At Strata+Hadoop last week Cloudera said they are continuing to sign up 100% y/y customers and growth remains steady. Surprising that their valuation got cut so much...
Err, needs to be non https; I broke it.
True. Doesn't help anyone else who wants to read the blogs though. And even thought the storage is redundant, the fact that it's controlled by a single company makes it a single point of failure. I also hope Geocities is around somewhere and is recovered at some point in the future.
It wouldn't be hard to only display the captchas if sudden increased traffic from Tor exits indicated that a DDOS through Tor was in action.

Clever (YC S12) - San Francisco - onsite

Right now the market for educational software is a mess. It’s incredibly difficult for developers to get their products into schools, and it’s even harder for them to scale. School districts spend tons of money on learning applications, but they have no way of knowing if students are even using the apps they’re purchasing. Teachers know there’s great software out there, but relatively simple challenges like getting 30 students logged in at once make using it impossible.

At Clever, we’re working to change all that. We provide schools with a free API and single sign-on solution that makes using educational apps a breeze. We’ve grown fast: after three and a half years, we’re moving data for a third of all K-12 students in America (20M kids), and 50,000 schools are using us to manage their education apps. Our goals are much bigger than that, though. We want to be two things:

-a single place where schools can easily integrate, manage and analyze all the software they’re using, and

-a single identity that students can use to see everything they’ve learned across multiple apps.

We’re a team of 100 (40 engineers) based in downtown SF, and we’re looking for engineers who enjoy working in (or would enjoy learning) Go, Python and Coffeescript. More generally, we want people who are sharp, adaptable, and passionate about improving the way education works for everyone. In particular, we’re looking for senior engineers and engineering managers: empathetic leaders who are excited about teaching, coaching and professional development.

I would expect most of the malicious traffic coming out of Tor isn't using Tor browser. I wonder what the attack numbers look like for Tor browser vs not Tor browser. Cloudflare has client side checks already, which could be extended to check whether the browser is Tor browser, and if so, don't block it.
> successful economies should strive to be pretty balanced

The economy is not a thing that can "strive" for anything. Rather, the economy is simply the collection of actions taken by people in the market.

Let's ask, why are those economies successful in the first place?

> stupidly catering to middle classes instead of solving real problems

That's a bit condescending, don't you think?
Pretty sure it means you can't have servers running your tests that prepare your production code for deployment. Maybe you use RHEL to run Openshift 3 with containers spinning up a test environment to run acceptance tests exactly like production before deploying the same containers on the production machines. Not allowed with the free dev license.

My secret to my success on Wall Street-–commentary
> "The job of finance is to provide capital to companies. We do it to the tune of $250 billion a year in IPOs and secondary offerings. What else do we do? We encourage investors to trade about $32 trillion a year. So the way I calculate it, 99% of what we do in this industry is people trading with one another, with a gain only to the middleman. It’s a waste of resources."

Very few people would invest in IPOs or secondary offerings without a secondary market for the shares.
But you've seen it before, and if you saw it again and you didn't remember exactly what the symbol stood for, you would probably still remember it was math related, and be able to look it up fairly quickly. There's a whole class of domain symbols that fall into this category, and even for the people that don't know them immediately, if they look them up, they might find useful info that conveys some of the original developer's intent. For example, Δ, an searching for it will probably bring you to Wikipedia[1], where some common usages are easy to see (and "change" is the top one, which is what I would assume when seeing it).

Increased symbolism front-loads learning to increase expressiveness later. If we've already front-loaded that learning to a small or large part on a large chunk of the population, that can greatly change the equation for how much it slows initial understanding of the code, and thus it's usefulness. As I mentioned elsewhere, we generally use '+' and '-' in programming languages because everyone already knows what they mean. We could just as easily use add(a,b) and subtract(a,b), and in some languages we do so, but in general there's so little friction in using the most basic math notation it's accepted without qualification as a better way to do it.

When will Bitfusion be available for Google and Microsoft?
Hm, I didn't notice that part and I hadn't thought about ad click fraud and vulnerability scanning.

Preventing content scraping for publicly accessible content is kind of dumb and impossible in my view anyway though. For the few that care about making scraping more cumbersome the option should be there to enable the captchas, but I don't think it should be a default.

Ad click fraud is a harder problem to figure out, but should be a issue for the ad-networks to deal with and not the sites with the ads.

I'm torn about preventing vulnerability scanning. While I do it on my server using mod_security, it's also a form of "security by obscurity", which I'm not that much a fan of.

Anyway, disabling captchas completely should be a very visible option.

The protections on "dangerous GET requests" are probably only needed for a small minority of CloudFlare sites, so what should be the default setting becomes a question of what's most valued the most - safety for the many (making Tor usage easy and not cumbersome) or security for the few (who rely on the default settings protecting them from "niche" security issues).

I think making Tor usage easy by default would be best for the security of the web at large, but I can see why CloudFlare has different priorities.

I'm using a rmail+m{pop,smtp}+mairix+spamassassin approach nowadays (My email provider's spam filtering is crap, so I do it myself, with a whitelist from my BBDB). Notmuch always seemed interesting but I couldn't dive in yet. I have some free time this week, so I'll try. If your configuration is public (i.e. on github), would you mind sharing a link?
Why wait for them to fade when you can cause much more directed mayhem by painting new lines that lead the vehicle somewhere unsafe.

I know I wasn't interested in doing any JavaScript until they started modularizing it and npm was that on crack. Possibly once the kids had their shiny new npm, some went mad with power and took it too far. Take the good with the bad though as the JavaScript language is known for.

You can't say "this is big" on your own startup. That's cheating.

EDIT: I was incorrect and OP was not from the startup; although the voting behavior is highly suspicious.
Reading replies to this I think it might be a good idea to take a few deep breaths, then consider just how small this mistake is, how it should be a lesson learned and that no one needs to be fired over it.
"Cloudflare just have to get smarter here. It's their business to do dynamic filtering and balance this stuff, not Tors."

It's not their business given Cloudfare doesn't make shit off Tor: it looses bandwidth and time fighting malice instead. It's actually their business to block it. Tor needs a reputation system or some other method to deal with this stuff.

Google Groups has a feature to automatically reject messages it considers to be Spam. That feature has always been quite terrible. The Google Groups Backend hasn't changed in a very long time.

https://support.google.com/groups/answer/2627595?hl=en

I personally always disable it for public groups and then rely on Spam filtering of the recipient inbox.

By the way - the bounce message you are seeing is what is sent when the Spam Classification Server determined your message to be Spam. The main reasons for that are things like sending from a bad IP, having certain keywords that are strongly correlated with Spam, or having domains in your message that are associated with Spam (based on other messages having been marked as Spam containing those domains).
Oh yeah, I didn't know about this option. A static dir for /.well-known is a much more elegant solution than shutting down nginx... Thx for the pointer.
Pixlee | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

Pixlee is revolutionizing the relationship between people and brands. We help companies leverage customer photos/videos from social media to improve marketing.

We work with over 100+ customers, including top brands such as Converse, Kenneth Cole, UGG Australia, Mattel, Charlotte Russe, Marriott Hotels, and AMC Theatres, to drive higher online conversion, increase performance of owned media, and create a more authentic brand experience. A graduate of the Stanford StartX accelerator, Pixlee is an Andreessen Horowitz and XSeed Capital portfolio company. As a rapidly growing startup, we are constantly looking for talented people to join the Pixlee team and to help us revolutionize the intersection of big data and social media. At Pixlee we work hard, love to learn, and value teamwork and humility. We’ve got a big vision and we’re looking for game changers to join our team.

We look for talented, high-potential individuals who aren’t jerks. Our proposition to them is simple: Pixlee offers a unique opportunity to thrive and grow rapidly in a small-team startup environment operating at big-company scale. Our customers are some of the largest brands in the world and everything you do here affects millions of consumers.

We believe in using the right technology for the task, and we use a mix of rails, backbone, python, scala, elasticsearch, and postgres.

For me, I've really felt that I've been able to really grow very rapidly, and also been given the autonomy to make many decisions you can't make at a much larger startup. Its a very tight knit group, and we like to have fun.

What we're looking for:
- Software Engineer: https://boards.greenhouse.io/pixlee/jobs/86332#.Vg126xNVhBc
- Frontend Engineer: https://boards.greenhouse.io/pixlee/jobs/182363#.Vv6svBIrI5g
