I agree, the number of kudos is alarming. Having worked with compiled and scripted languages I can say with confidence that there are pros and cons with each approach. Sometimes its easier to copy a single dll as opposed to a bunch of .js files, among other reasons. Either way you will want a clearly defined api that hides its implementation from whatever is consuming it.

Because now you're gaming the system. If the incentives put in place by the system are so perverse that the best advice is to -- for lack of a better word -- "cheat", then the incentives need to be changed.
> Isn't this exactly what CF is attempting to do?

No. The real bad people have botnets and can cycle through a million random IP addresses every time you block one. A real solution needs to be secure against someone you don't yet know is bad.

This is going to get a lot worse as we've run out of IPv4 addresses. ISPs are going to start to NAT many users behind one IP address. Some already have. Then you have the same issue as Tor where one user is malicious but shares the same IP address as a thousand innocent users. IP blocking isn't going to work anymore so you might as well find an alternative solution now.
It's also uncivil to accuse my employers, repeatedly, of a policy that you have no hard evidence of or personal experience with, except one person's hearsay. I understand it's your friend. I am still disagreeing with him or her.

For those reading along: you will not be asked by Pivotal to submit to such a test, either when applying or upon being hired.

If this turns out be false, I will personally pay $2,000 to the ACLU or another charity of your choice.

If I understand well you want to use Deviare in your GPL compatible project and hooking into a closed source application such as Microsoft Outlook, Internet Explorer, Skype, etc? The answer is yes, you can use Deviare in this context using the GPL license, we don't think that instrumenting a closed-source application via Deviare is part of your software, even when you can complement other closed-source applications.

> I've never seen anyone who gave a fuck about their contribution graph and record streak[...]I want to say if you feel pressure when looking at your contribution graph, it's all in your head and you should take a break because you're clearly not thinking straight.

Interesting deduction but it's extremely anecdotal and ultimately false. If history has taught us anything it's that people want to control their appearance to others. If there are rockstar developers with a huge contribution graph then people will start to associate that as a pattern to being a rockstar at which point it becomes a goal for people to shoot for.

Yes people shouldn't care. But they do. It's simply how the human mind works. While you say you don't care and you probably don't, I wouldn't be surprised if you cared even if it was just a very, very tiny bit even subconsciously.

This affects users of all social networks. People even develop eating disorders because they're worried about negative social evaluations[1].

You can buy serviceable vehicles for $15-20k that are reliable, last for a decade, and meet the critical needs in the US for a car [commute, almost all shopping trips, etc].

Adding what is effectively the price of another car ($15-20k) onto that is a luxury. Pretty much paying double the price you need to pay is something I'd consider a luxury regardless of the class of good.

Source: I paid $12k for a 2 year old car.

Honda Fit, etc as well are in that price range new:

WalmartLabs - Clojure Developer. | SF | Remote (US Timezones) | H1B VISA

You can work on Clojure at quite a few companies, but rarely can you impact millions of people at such a personal level. We're a small, flat team of engineers building mission critical applications for Walmart Grocery. We work with our own tools and make our own build-or-borrow decisions. Our culture is a healthy mix of sharing and pushing each other to be better at our craft. We use pull requests & code reviews liberally. We make refactoring time. We deploy often, with a single line of code run from a REPL. Engineers on our team are challenged to work through our full software stack and be part of our product management. We believe that people are more engaged, fulfilled and happy when they feel responsible for actually shipping their work.

Some aspects of our work that are important to us:

- high performance distributed systems
- robust & well-factored codebases
- simple & fast deployments
- automating the hell out of operations
- thorough system test coverage
- managing our own development process and work backlog
- pair programming when it makes sense (locally and remotely)
- contributing back to the clojure & open source community

What we do:

- write all our production systems & tools in Clojure
- create and orchestrate massive distributed systems
- spin up web services for handling large volumes of data

For a glimpse behind the scenes, check out a talk we gave at Clojure/West last year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av9Xi6CNqq4.

Look, please correct me if I'm misunderstanding or taking your words out of context.

But what I hear you saying is that CloudFlare is fundamentally opposed to user privacy at a business and an architectural level.

I.e., if you don't agree to let CloudFlare track you around the web (perhaps by simply declining cookies) CloudFlare is likely to degrade your user experience to the point of being borderline unusable and then point the blame at you for coming from a bad network neighborhood.

UCLA Library (http://library.ucla.edu) | Linux Development Support Engineer | Los Angeles, CA | Full-time career, onsite | 2 positions available

This is a new role within the UCLA Library's IT team. We have two positions open for Linux Development Support Engineers.

Here is the link to the job description and to apply: http://ucla.in/25noTHw

We are looking for Senior Linux System Administrators with backgrounds in supporting development teams and project managers. What's great about this position is the autonomy we have to create environments that serve the vision of the Library. We'll be working on creating continuous integration methods, using configuration management tools, developing infrastructures in in-house virtual infrastructures and in clouds services (like Amazon).

We value candidates' communication, organization, documentation, and overall "soft skills" just as high, if not more so, than technical abilities.

We are a fun IT organization with many interesting projects. We support websites that host collections of materials where our Library has the only copies of the images, audio, and video in the entire world. We are working through challenges for how to preserve terabytes of data where if they're lost, there's no getting them back.

The Library is a place where we learn something new every day, and is an awesome place to come to work.

I can't imagine how the idea that higher property taxes = lower property prices & vice versa should be controversial.
Before the age of angel investors, most corporations got their initial working capital through personally-secured loans. Those were either loans directly to founders (their credit card, perhaps) which was then loaned to the corporation, or a direct loan to the corporation personally secured by the founders.
A zero-sum game is one in which when you do better, someone else does worse. Which is to say, it's not like the economy, where both of us can get richer at the same time, but for Golden State to improve, someone else has to get worse.

When teams trade, they might both improve, but it will be at the expense of the other teams in the league.

When Golden State "gained" Curry at the draft, the team picking behind them "lost" the opportunity to take Curry.

> I would say Curry was a "gamble" pick.

I don't understand how to reconcile this with saying that the Warriors were lucky Minnesota blew their picks and he fell to them.
Since traffic from Tor is so low (0.4%) why do even care to do IP-based blocking? Won't all your other threat detection models kick in when necessary anyway?

Exactly. Imagine if Reddit's transparency report included a fat canary. Something like:

/u/mike_pants
/u/the_starship
/u/SlimJones123
/u/n3rdopolis
/u/mrbabyman
/u/GreedE
...

Individual users could determine if they've been the subject of a subpoena and I suspect that kind of cleverness wouldn't impress a judge.

You raise a good point. Economies are the collection of individual decisions. Perhaps what people are getting after is the short term vs. long term incentives or the potential for conflict between the incentives for individuals and those for the group.

Happened to me, too. I must have lost my poker face at that point, because a couple of questions later the interviewer seemed to have noticed that I had lost interest, and asked why. That was a novel enough experience that I was honest, and just said that (a) winning at GH is of zero interest to me, and (b) a corporate culture that actually cares about that is judging their minions by bullshit metrics, causing all the well-known the problems that come from picking proxy measures that don't measure what you actually care doubt.

And if they actually do care about seven day work-weeks being the norm, that's substantially worse.

(Interview ended shortly after I got a muddy reply about how hard it is to measure developer productivity, so they use the metrics they can find, etc. Textbook example of a drunk looking for their keys under the lamp post, which completely reaffirmed my decision.)

We're a startup that's using human stylists and machine learning algorithms to reinvent how shopping works for men (and someday women) who want to dress well but dislike shopping. In the process we're helping them to feel happier and more confident about themselves. We're backed by a collection of the top investors from London and Silicon Valley as well as Y Combinator.

You'd be joining a small, highly technical team with lots of startup experience (the founders have started and sold 2 companies before). We're lucky to have had a lot of success bringing together exceptional people in design, machine learning/AI and engineering, and we're now focussed on finding our first dedicated data engineer. You'll be working closely with Ed Snelson, Thread's Head of Applied Research and a world leader in data science, to build systems to improve our recommendations. Using data to help our users dress well is at the core of what we do; it's not a nice-to-have bolted onto the product. You'll be responsible for building predictive model training pipelines, assisting with model feature development, data warehousing, and working with the styling and product teams to ensure our clients receive the best experience possible.

1. Most smart people I've met that have few friends have few because they are freaking weird to normal people, and lots of folks just can't tolerate it.

2. Whoever wrote this has had a much better social life than I ever have. I'm somewhat envious, honestly, and have a lot of trouble figuring out what he's complaining about.

3. I'd more liken this to some sort of depression, because it can truly make people not realize they have friends.
