Things you could work on:

* Client-side UI code.

* Server-side REST routes.

* Platform and core APIs.

* Document and report generation.

* Distributed processing architecture.

* Scaling and performance optimizations.

You should have knowledge of some of these. Most of all we look for those interested in learning.

Please send us:

* cover letter — tell us why you’re interested and give us a reason to get excited to hire you,

* resume/linkedin profile,

* link to github projects or other work samples.

I lived through 2001. This is not a bubble. As exhibit one I point out that everyone has been calling bubble since 2012. Real bubbles have more rah rah and less skepticism and more crazy.

I do see a slowdown but this is nothing like dot.com. Seems like a normal correction and is not really separate from the rest of the economy being uncertain. Nothing tech specific.

Bubble is an overused term. An inflated market is not a bubble, and a correction is not a bubble bursting. Markets go up and down all the time.

I'm not sure why this is surprising, under current precedent,you can be forced to type in your password (https://articles.forensicfocus.com/2012/02/09/another-judge-... covers some cases, but there are a lot of cases).

Touch ID is not really different.

In general, one of the only reasons you won't be forced to type in your password is if the act of proving you have the password is somehow incriminating (IE there is a dispute over ownership, etc).
More likely she'd be held in contempt of court, or charged with withholding evidence.
The original poster implies software, and software (the main product of SV) is in a bubble which will burst.
> Arguably not even a constitutional amendment could permit restrictions on Americans' interstate travel.

You might think it would be arguable but John Gilmore discovered you can't even argue it -- the law is secret and cannot be discussed in open court, thus he had no standing to sue over it: https://papersplease.org/gilmore/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilmore_v._Gonzales

The wikipedia entry is slightly misleading on one point: the ninth circuit said he could travel without ID (this case came about because I had been flying without ID and discussed it with John) -- his suit was that he had no choice due to a law he was not permitted to read (yet ignorance of that law is no defense!) and he argued that that was a violation of free speech + free assembly. Without being able to discuss the law in open court, the justification for the decision was a fig leaf.

a few years back they launched this tax free incentive for startups. I tried applying with my co-founder at the time. They rejected us because we were a technology startup. They were looking for companies in the hard sciences. They also had a condition that we had to hire or get sponsorship from one of the colleges.

If they really want to catch the next big startup, they should change some of these restrictions that would attract talent in technology.

That's probably more commonly true in cities where people already heavily use public transportation and cars are not necessities; much more likely to be aware of these sorts of things. In contrast, cities where you only use ride-sharing on weekend nights a couple of times a month when you drink too much, there's less of a need.

I specialise in working on the back-end for SaaS applications. I work to understand the business aspects and have a high skill level for quickly and thoroughly understanding large systems.
More than moderation, I think it's just an artifact of their ranking system. It basically guarantees that the only stuff on the front page or top of large reddits is going to be stuff that's shallow and easy (not to mention quick) to consume.
>oh please. i trust google far more than my own government for data protection; we're talking about an orginisation who leaves sensitive literally just lying around

We're talking about a corporation that had employees access personal data to show off to teenagers[0].

No one can be trusted with data, therefore it needs to be restricted to only those who need access. The NHS probably needs data about patients, Google does not and the unspecified third-party contractor Google has employed to store the data definitely does not.

You should try eating smaller portions.

You will usually find that eating slower will satiate you with less food and over time you'll start eating less.

That being said, I have not experienced the same symptoms as a result of hunger - I find the feeling a minor annoyance at best, certainly much lower than other environmental factors that usually impede concentration (temperature, noise, lighting).

Certainly the individual responses to feeling of hunger vary from person to person.
> assuming they could not be de-anonymized

That's where the problem is anonymizing data is really difficult and it takes only a few bits of info to associate that data with a name. It takes only 3 pieces of information to uniquely identify 87% of people, Zip code, birthday, and sex.

If it's Superman it's already for a younger audience.

Of course with the infantilization of culture that's difficult for a lot of people to fathom, and it even needs to be masked a little (that's what causes the need to have people like Nolan to instill dime-store "darkness" into superhero movies, which supposedly makes it "deeper", while it's still 10 times as shallow as e.g. "The Searchers").

> but I'd like to be told how rather than just downvoted!

It's probably in the tone of your comment, which (though it isn't the case) implies that there's something wrong with the laws.

I'd edit and rephrase in your position, especially since your criticism isn't of the law but is rather of the education of users. To your point: if users of devices could be educated in-device about the security of different identification and authentication schemes, the user could take better ownership of the security of said user's device.
Training Deep Neural Networks with Dropout
The person who is being held indefinitely for not giving up his password is really frightening. They should either let him go or charge him with contempt of course/obstruction and issue time served!

Even if you /know/ you don't have anything illegal on any of my encrypted devices, it's better to take a contempt of court charge than give up a password...because of what they might /find/ or possible things unrelated to an investigation that they can link to a crime (or what they can then plant).
Seems pretty simple, really.

1000 patients come in with symptoms that look like cancer at year 0.

100 actually get diagnosed with cancer at some point between year 0 and year 5.

Presumably, the remaining 900 didn't have cancer at year 0.
> > And it's not that checks are less thorough around [any European airport ].

> Really? Do they require you to remove shoes and belts, plus all items (even scraps of paper) from your pockets? Do they require you to stand motionless, hands raised for 1-2 mins to be scanned by a millimeter wave or backscatter x-ray machine or submit to a 15 min careful patdown and swabbing?

"Intrusive" is not the same thing as "thorough". You are describing how intrusive the US measures are. How thorough the measures are depends on their effectiveness at actually detecting what they set out to detect (all the information that has come out about the tests of the US system in that regard have shown that, while intrusive, it is absolutely not thorough.)

When I am done working at the office, I drive home and then walk to the nearest gym. That's about 30 minutes of walking. I then spend 30 minutes doing cardio and 1h00 doing weight lifting. I then walk back home. If it's a nice day out, I skip the initial 30 minutes of cardio and run to the gym instead. Listen to tech podcast while doing your workout.

Buy a crock-pot and precook your meals. They will be ready when you get back home.

Isn't the F-35's high price due to it already being 3 very different attack aircraft?

1. CAS with STOVL capability (Marine)

2. Light attack fighter (Air Force)

3. Carrier attack plane with bigger wings (Navy)

Creating 3 separate programs isn't going to change that. And, if not that, then the software they want is going raise the prices of the 3 different aircraft anyways. The Marines are probably going to want to develop the expensive Augmented Reality helmet anyways, for example.

If you create 3 separate programs, where will you save money?

This one is interesting, I had not seen it.

If I'm reading this right, it still doesn't compromise the data on chip (i.e., the card cannot be copied, the limits enforced by chip are kept, etc) but allowed to modify the chip so that a physically stolen card can be used without knowing the PIN because the POS erroneously accepts a PIN verification response from another chip. This described hack seems to be impossible in recent chip implementations as well, but I'm not eager to dig through specs to check.

Still, it is still similar to the chip analysis vulnerability in risk as it (a) requires physically stealing the card and modifying it - thus it doesn't enable the far more common scenarios of skimming the card by an ATM device or a person e.g. waiter; and (b) doesn't allow to clone the card, so purchases must be made quickly by people physically close to the thieves and operators doing the chip-modification, so it means a much greater chance of arresting the whole team than in the currently common fate of stolen US card data where you can just sell the data to people anonymously over internet, and they themselves can easily make cloned cards to make the risky part of actually obtaining the money/goods.

A skimmed card will just work on the first try. A card modified like this is still likely to trigger "stolen, call the police" message on the POS terminal.
Wow, is it going to be the usual "we are better than WordPress..bla bla bla" ?
Contempt is a terrifying charge, because under current law, you can be jailed indefinitely for the same contempt charge for as long as you refuse to cooperate with whatever the court thinks you should cooperate with. There's no upper bound there. So that wouldn't solve the problem.
I also keep seeing news about the Navy and Marines asking for more F-18's since they have ran through more hours on the airframe since the F-35 is late.
