Reminds me of the Petraeus scandal where they communicated via unsent Gmail drafts in a shared account.

EDIT:

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petraeus_scandal

Petraeus and Broadwell used fake names to create free webmail accounts
exchanging messages without encryption tools.
They would share an email account, with one saving a message in the
drafts folder and the other deleting it after reading it.
Yeah, my comment doesnt make that much sense, reading it again. That was just an example how badly trained personnel can make any accident worse, justifying a very well trained operator for crucial automated systems.
Couldn't figure out a way to solve them reasonably (and within schedule) using RethinkDB, so I did a "master-slave" with the RethinkDB as the master and PostgreSQL as a slave replica. Then did all the queries and analytics on the PostgreSQL database. I think this is far from ideal in terms of server costs, but scope creep is never ideal.

I suppose using computed property indexes in RethinkDB might work as well, or generating indexes, sort order, and doing query optimisation outside of the DB, but I couldn't figure it out in time, and it also seemed way more complicated than replicating the data to PostgreSQL.

EDIT: Above is for the OLAP use cases. OLAP of some types just don't go well with document databases. For the Decimal type, I stored it as a string, and had a computed property that transformed the string to a float. The float can then be indexed and queried like a number. It was good, until all the other OLAP use-cases creeped in.

Having said that, I found that custom replicas with RethinkDB is easy because it emits data change events. Never expected that feature to be an escape hatch.

Mitchell v. City of Henderson.

Now every last amendment from the Bill of Rights has been discarded.
The link is right there in the first paragraph :-)
What constitutes probable cause for a search is relevant. The judge is arguing that all devices connected to the Internet are probably hacked and that as a result of the devices already being hacked, there is no reasonable expectation of privacy.

Putting 10 bombs on 10 buses requires a lot more planning and terrorists, which greatly enhances the chance of getting caught. Especially in the US, where much of the risk is currently centered around "lone wolf"-type attacks, anything that would require a greater number of people seems like it would be a significant deterrent.

NCC Group (formerly Matasano Security, iSEC Partners, and Intrepidus Group) - Austin, Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, and Sunnyvale, CA

As you lay around in your summer post-barbecue funk second-guessing your life decisions, consider making a move to a new career path, or transitioning to a growing organization doing important and exciting work... NCC Group!

If you’re a tinkerer, you enjoy breaking more than building, or someone who wonders “why” and ends up down the rabbit hole 36 hours later with a disassembled air conditioning unit surrounding them... we’d love to hear from you! Our process welcomes those with years of experience, as well as those with little to no direct experience in what we do.

The bottom line: if you love security and research, NCC Group just may be a perfect fit for you.

What do we do exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer.

All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

Open Law Library | JS/Python dev; C# lead dev | openlawlib.org | U.S. REMOTE | $80-130k

Open Law Library is a small nonprofit tech startup and open access legal publisher dedicated to making the law accessible to all.

We are taking the tools and techniques developed for programmers to publish software code - IDEs, linters, compilers, continuous integration/deployment, VCS, etc - and adapting and transforming them for use by lawyers to publish legal codes. Governments use our tools to save time and money and then publish their laws openly for the public.

The founders are two lawyer/programmers (Scala, Python, and Javascript). Our funding is a mix of donations, grants, and government contracts.

If you are looking for a meaningful way to contribute to our democracy, you find joy in building the perfect tools for your users, you like deep and challenging problems in such diverse areas as version control, DSL design, UI/UX, and NLP (more accurately, LLP - Legal Language Processing :), and the idea of helping build a team excites you, then drop me a line at dgreisen@openlawlib.org.

* C# Lead Developer: Government lawyers live and breath MS Office, so our tools must integrate seamlessly with their MS-centric workflows. We are looking to hire a C# lead to help us build out our Microsoft team.

* Javascript/Python Developer: Our development environment for editing and publishing legal documents is based on the Atom editor. You will be integrating Atom with our existing Python backend and building all new tools, either in Atom plugins or in our Python backend, as appropriate.
And I presume no telephone connected to the public telephone network is private, because someone might tap into the wires?

I think you are right.

Being in a closed cabin at 30,000 feet means that the size of the explosion has to be a lot smaller than on the ground to have the same impact. Additionally, guns can lead to lead to 9/11 situations.

More importantly, TSA probably won't defend against a state level threat, but it keeps crazy people from doing ridiculous stuff. Take a look at this pre-security list of incidents: (remember, a lot less people flew back then)

There is no way not to have security on flights. The next step is making it much faster and more predictable to reduce overall travel time.

I hope that every pro-Apple techie is happy with the monster that they've helped to create by enthusiastically jumping into the Apple ecosystem over the past 10 to 15 years.

If you're starting to see the light - please consider using my own personal tactics for never giving Apple any money, but still being able to use Apple products:

- Only buy used or unofficially-refurbished Apple equipment.

- Don't use any of their services unless they're free.

- Don't buy any apps, only use the free ones or pay for them through non-Apple channels.

- If you end up giving money to Apple in any way, try to make them lose it somewhere else down the road (i.e. by heavily using their free support services, talking people out of using their products, etc.).

I did not know about this. Frankly, it's terrifying. It almost makes me want to cry. The prospect of walking into a situation where I have to chose between utter financial ruin and just handing over something I've owned for nearly thirty years is unsettling.

Is there any financial help for these kinds of cases? I can't possibly spend hundreds of thousands of dollars defending this.

I mean, the only way to even begin to approach it is to sell everything we own and have my wife and three kids live out of a van. And that might not even be enough.

> but Erlang/beam code is not that fast.

True, no doubt. You wanted a comparison why phoenix is faster than rails. And simply doing things at compile time reduces work at runtime. In Ruby, all Metaprogramming must be done at runtime, for example via method_missing trickery (been there, done that).

> Ruby's templates are parsed into code that stays in memory, too, so it's not like they're re-parsed each and every time.

This is actually not the same. A single immutable blob of binary (elixir strings) which is shared throughout the whole application can leverage hardware caching better. Jose could answer this probably better than I can do.

> someone should dissect these things in a real-world-ish application to see what's actually true.

Moz.com recently had fun with Elixir [1]. You may also have a look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxhTQdcieQE from latest RailsConf.

> The claim was 'fast' though

Well at least I know that BEAM processes are far lighter than eg: goroutines. Also there is a per-process GC, so no "stop the world", much smaller units for individual collects, and when a process finishes before the heap grows full, it can be discarded directly.

> maintainable, which seems curious given that there are no really old Phoenix apps out there

Fair enough.

Personally I'd not wait until a software stack is a decade old before even considering it. I have at least worked on Elixir/Phoenix projects for many months now on-off with multiple colleagues, and it was/is still pure joy. Aesthetically pleasing syntax helps (broken window syndrome I guess), plus functional programming style in general, plus phoenix' foundation in "plug" and the clear modularity. "Let it crash" with supervisors also is incredibly robust, and robustness in itself leads to less maintenance costs.

It's kind of amazing how well it works. I completely understand consumers being upset about anti-consumer behavior from businesses, but competitors using every tactic they can get away with to out-compete each other, especially enforcing established contracts, is expected behavior. Nobody wants monopolies, but the phenomenon of people swearing off a brand forever because they try to make use of their business advantages is fascinating. It might be a sign of a need for someone to intervene to level the playing field, but I'd never be personally offended by it.

To what extent were the numbers meaningless? And how big was the unproven but probably effect so somebody else can try to verify it? Or even not try, discarding it as irrelevant because it was too small?

And the most important question that every statistical study should answer: What effect magnitudes were discarded by this research?

Claiming insignificant results and refusing to share them is telling your audience "well, we learned something, but we'll hide our findings from you because you are just too stupid to even imagine the kind of thing we learned here."

Yes, for some audiences that would be true, but it's something a researcher shouldn't even imagine telling somebody. It's basically incompatible with the kind of thoughts required from researchers.
Hey, I just wanted to shout out and say that your reply here is refreshing. I appreciate that you admit that the feature is "kinda wonky" and that you're still looking at and intellectually rationalizing about such things. There's no harm in trying out the various constructor approaches, and then see how it feels in the real world.

This is refreshing from other newish (cough golang) languages which pick the "wonky" path, but go on to defend it tirelessly. Keep up the good work.
Exactly, so probably we don't want more of it, no?

And the bees might be an invasive species, but they have no superpowers. I'm not sure how wide the biological niche of a GMO plant can get.
