But it's also worth mentioning that consent does have to be renewed between each act. Just because he consented last night doesn't mean she can assume consent tonight without a fresh affirmative indication of consent. (Which doesn't have to be verbal, necessarily, but should be enthusiastic participation rather than simply submission to a partner's overtures.)

This sort of response is typical for someone from NY(yes, this is also racist).

I'm white in the US. There is so much ignorance and illiteracy in the way white male racism is portrayed in the USA. It's a beautiful display of how you preach openness and then completely disregard all nuanced world views. You may not have known them then, but you sure as hell don't listen when someone is trying to explain it aaron.

A huge portion of people that are on the receiving end of racist systems are white male by your definition.

The thing that's so offensive about your kind and the authors kind of attitude is very similar to when some spoiled american female brat who's parents can just easily lash out tens of thousands a year for an ivy league school tells me how would i know anything about discrimination because i'm too white.

The device you used to type in your opinion was likely produced in Asia. This enabled you to pay less without getting less.

You can in fact get a Bulgarian developer which is just as good or even better than many Western European or American developers (I have hired a few) and for a fraction of the price.

Meanwhile they may still be paid very decent amount of money that allows for them to have a standard of living exceeding the one they would have had if they had been employed in Switzerland with Swiss salary, and Swiss living cost.

You don't always get what you pay for with developers or any other services or products. Sometimes, but not always.
I actually said drunk, not slightly intoxicated. Drunk does have a legal meaning (it is illegal to be drunk in public in many jurisdictions), but even if we limit the discussion to "substantially" intoxicated then many, many men have had sex while substantially intoxicated.

Well, the current tests with self-driving trucks are almost exclusively by european carmakers on German roads – where 2 to 3 lanes are common about everywhere, and trucks are limited to 80km/h or 100km/h anyway.
Right, I see. I think that's a completely different issue, especially given where you lived.

The idea that cars sit idle too much does not hold water. Cars age through usage, not over time.
"Last mile" delivery may perhaps be done with much smaller, mostly-autonomous vehicles (with remote operators getting involved only when needed).

See related article and thread in [1] - article also discusses some startup ideas for mostly-autonomous systems.

[1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11565601
The demonstration in Europe shows that driverless trucking is right around the corner. The primary remaining barriers are regulatory.

What about the roads themselves? I'm curious how an autonomous truck will handle a snow-covered highway, fog, potholes, and tight corners caused by narrow roads, bad parking, snow banks, etc. This is a way of life where I live (Boston area).

The article about the Russian driverless van (cited by @ommunist) talks with the experts, who are by no means 100% convinced this is "right around the corner": (1)

Industry players are aware that just one serious accident on the roads involving a driverless car could set back their development by decades.

“Everyone has come to understand that the technology is 90 percent ready, but even when it’s 99.99 percent ready, it still won’t be launched,” says Gol, whose product is currently being tested in various scenarios and weather conditions.

“Until we can teach [artificial] intelligence to learn the nuances of things that can occur unexpectedly on the roads … what will happen if transparent glass is being carried across the road, what if there’s a paper bag that the system perceives as a rock,” the system isn’t ready, he said.

“We need a mathematical revolution to overcome that 0.01 percent,” says Gol. “We all understand perfectly that to have just one accident involving autonomous transport will have a huge fallout in society – the technology could be closed down completely for another 50 years. It’s a huge responsibility,” he added.

But it's still simple math. More weight, be more aggressive with brakes.

If human truck drivers can do it, then a computer truck with a 360 model of the environment around it can do it more efficiently right.

I don't understand the problem here really. Computers are way better at logical computation than humans and that's all we require here.

Are the lower masses not offset by higher speeds though?

The article mentions 45mph as the most efficient speed for a truck. I can imagine the regulators demanding a pretty low speed for automated trucks.

As one of the few left of my peers that still develops I would say that it is a milestone. There is a lot of burn out and churn along the way. I knew guys that left software dev to become a worm farmer. Most take the elevator up to management which is what I did becoming a CTO but I always position myself at small but growing companies so I could keep myself hands on with technology. I have two friends left that started dev around the same time as me (92). For most it's just not a long term industry and burnout usually takes it's toll.

That being said the web revolution happened in the early 90's and was a huge shift in development. There where a lot of older devs around at that time who where doing desktop and had no desire to make the jump so 40'ish is also kind of a demarcation line of where an epoch changed in development, so the fact that you see few over 40 devs could be a) that the web was small back then and there where only a handful of us doing it and b) The developers that where doing web in the early 90's where all young, therefore it is kind of origin of a new type of developer.
"probably a lot smaller number than people expect"

If you crunch your way through files (and lets assume they're random from the hash functions point of view) for 10 years, you have to calculate the hash of 60.000.000.000 files / second - to have 50% chance of finding a collision. If the average filesize is 1 KB, that is ~56TB data every single second.

If anything my bet is that JS is not worth learning at all because future is all about WebAssembly (and LLVM effectively - he is right about that).
Well, there's use and then there's use. Are companies like LinkedIn and New York Times using Node for critical enterprise shit, or simply for a web interface for light stuff like mobile and customer interaction? People like to point to PayPal, but that's only one out of hundreds and thousands of major corporations. As the author says, most of the big shops aren't basing their businesses on Node and JS. They put their trust in real languages like Java, C#, Python, C++ and Scala.
That would probably be better. In reality, however, a business will go for the cheaper (or required-by-law) option and will more heavily towards humans or automation

Delicious is finally dead
But you don't need to do that. You simply take 256 bits and use them as an AES key. You then generate a stream of bits and write that to disk. Reading the disk afterward is equivalent to breaking AES.

Completely agreed. I've already mentioned in this post about only using the Linux CSPRNG to seed a userspace CSPRNG, because the Linux CSPRNG is horrendously slow, due to its ad-hoc design. However, if the Linux CSPRNG was AES-128 using the standard CTR_DRBG, with AES-NI, it could go north of 2 GiBps without breaking a sweat, keeping clean random.c code (it already ships aes.h), and it's backtracking resistant.

However, if you're going to spend good money for hardware producing random values, at least for me, I'm going to want the best bang for my buck. If you look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_hardware_random_..., you can spend $35 for the WaywardGeek "Infinite Noise RNG", which outputs 300 Kbps, or spend $24 for an RTL-SDR dongle and get about 2.8 MiBps. The value of bits per dollar is much higher with the RTL-SDR than the WaywardGeek. This is considerably cheaper than getting a radioactive sample, coupled with a Geiger counter.

IDQuantique sells a product that purportedly generates millions of random bits per second. If I were gambling at a casino, I'd feel more comfortable with that than with randomness from an AES stream. Yeah, I know I'm thinking irrationally.

Yeah, that is irrational. The problem with most TRNGs is that their output is biased. As a casino operator, I might be interested if the bias benefits my casino, but I would also need to prove to regulators that I'm not cheating the public. Personally, I'd err on the side of caution when it comes to the law.

So either I would whiten the output with a cryptographic primitive (John von Neumann debiasing is too costly, losing at least 1/2 the bits), or just write a userspace CSPRNG, and get the throughput you'll need for the demand. I could then constantly rekey/rseed the generator with the TRNG if I was tinfoil-hat-paranoid.

In either case, TRNG or CSPRNG, you'll want exceptional throughput for your casino. Which brings us back to another example of which 800 bps just isn't going to cut it. :)
7 Steps to Improve Your Pinterest Visibility
It's an interesting point you mention regards Consultants. I've been operating as a strategic consultant for the last 2 years, but purely as a one-man band. At every step of the way, I've been constantly asked to assist with the implementation/execution as well (since I only focus on the planning element).

The thing is, I read a book called Million Dollar Consulting by Alan Weiss, and he always stated that consultants don't ever do execution, that they only focus on the thinking/strategising side. I'm now starting to think that was a big mistake and that I should indeed form a team.

Any thoughts or suggestions in light of the above?

I very much enjoyed this article, but I had that BEE thought as well! My theory is that a lot of us human beings manufacture strife and struggle, because that is the Hero's Journey that everyone wants to be able to tell to their grandchildren. In the absence of "real" conflict (war, poverty, abuse), we shine the dark light on things like this. "I have a well paying job with great benefits and live in an awesome city...but I'm sad because, like, what does this all mean, man?" I'm not discounting the deep sadness that existential crises can saddle your daily life with, but I've seen this trend time and time again. Just pay attention to modern rap music, like Kanye. Listen to his lyrics. That dude has minimal "real world" problems in his life right now, from what I can tell, yet his music is one of "me against the world." That's because he knows what a story arc is supposed to be like, so he'll play that out for us, regardless of its actual truth.

It'd be awfully "convenient" for the truckers & taxi drivers if this were to happen... I predict a dirty tricks campaign with one or two engineered "accidents" to safeguard their industries.

Does the fact that most of the code in your car is autogenerated from tools like Modelica change your view on how likely this can/should be opened?

That is, the 'model' is the truth and the IP. The generated code is spaghetti, the vendors components are black boxes, and their 'code' is nothing more than another locked subsystem in the model.

Let's say in an ideal world, these mission critical systems must be opened - what do you propose everyone's business model should be? If everyone must see each others models... where is the free market competitive advantage to be gained?

This social justice movement is toxic, contradictory and insidious.
Yeah, probably. But I think most people looking for some light entertainment will look for 'a movie', not 'this particular Lionsgate movie', and in any case, with Netflix being so wildly popular, and average Steam users probably being fairly well-versed in today's online entertainment options, I just can't believe that this is very significant at all.

They've been slopping about for the past several months, and it looks like they've finally given up on it.

Really, how difficult is it to have a site and service that stores links and tags? Even at a high volume of data, in this day and age it should be trivial unless the money's not there to support it.

According to http://blog.delicious.com/ , they cancelled the premium service in January, attempted to monetize it again via sponsored links in RSS feeds in March, failed to revise the site successfully in March, then had "site problems", and finally said this month that they would be transitioning back to del.icio.us, but they seem to have been unable to do that either. Now the site's either down or stating that it has too much traffic. They've completely screwed the pooch.

It's really sad.
