Although the smaller the company, the greater the chance you're going to be working on "It's like Facebook/Instagram/Twitter, but...", with nowhere near the time or resources to even do it properly.
I live in the Seattle area too. I don't know a single person who work/worked at Amazon who disliked it or had any experience like what the NYTimes article described.

I like how you just make a blanket statement like "It is okay or great if you have low standards and low self respect/esteem". Way to play the superiority card. I know guys who went from Amazon to Google and say they liked Amazon way more.

Our experiences are obviously both anecdotal.. but only one of us is making condescending value judgments of others.
A sizable group but I prefer either to not work with them or to make it clear to them that they need to draw attention to problems.

These are the same sort of people who don't speak up when they think you're about to make a disastrous decision. I tell my coworkers/partners/clients frequently that I, like anyone, have blind spots. If they think I'm missing something, please, PLEASE address it sooner rather than later.
I agree 100% it is good for people to speak their mind, but I'm just saying in some cases you really can't.

> with crypto it is much harder to claim that a judge's authorization isn't required to even try to subvert the privacy intent.

No doubt, but the issue is that a judge's authorization can be ineffective in the face of crypto.

> TLS doesn't create a real loss of intervention. It requires that the intervention be far more explicit and/or targeted.

That targeted intervention is really easy to block for those who want too. All it takes is not revealing a key/passphrase.

> There's no way because legally the system (for the most part) considers it outside the scope of fraud laws.

Not just that though, it is also impossible because the conditionals introduced by a court system are very hard to encode in a crypto system, even more so if you want to do this and be able to retain trust.
I actually agree about the repetition. I was speaking to formatting of the file locations that are included.

Far better to remove (or move) for characters, than to update every tool to handle yet another format (and/or increase false positives in detection of src locations in an error stream).

To be clear, I am not in the camp of trying to recover objectivity, and generally feel that the attempt is a sin: God is dead, etc. I thought it was an interesting attempt to find a space where it might exist, though, in the moment of the joining of two minds. Undeniably something happens in the act of conversation, since we know we can speak to each other in a useful way that is not entirely subjective. We must at least be responsible to each other in conversation, and we might call that act of (partially) successful transmission/reception "objectivity".
A quick scan doesn't show any reference to (La)TeX, although Mom appears to address similar needs. Such a notable absence feels deliberate -- I'd be interested to know if there's an underlying philosophical difference, or an article on "why you should let Mom typeset your next paper instead of using LaTeX." (Would Mom be suitable for journal articles?)

Very, very interesting to see, especially for someone who lives in the Palo Alto area. From friends in real estate, the conversation at many of the town hall meetings break down to: existing property holders, and those who have moved to the area for work. So depressing to see, as it has second- and third-order effects in terms of who can come to SV to work. As the article points out, certain types of folks (e.g. those with families, or other financial obligations) are being priced out of the workforce. A total disaster.

Just some thoughts:

High achievers are frequently perfectionists. Perfectionism is a good eye for details on the basis of very high standards. We know the downsides of perfectionism (e.g. black & white thinking, more difficulties to work towards 80/20 if necessary), but it is still an excellent basis for achieving great work.

There seems to be less cognitive load in keeping up perfectionism / high standards simply all the time; in comparison to deciding whether perfectionism is useful in each individual situation.

Therefore many high-achieving people will keep up their perfectionist attitude all day, for all things they encounter in life.

Unfortunately, few things in the world are perfect, or well enough under their control to become perfect.

Hypothesis: The bad temper of many good workers and high achievers comes from perceiving everything in life with the black & white pattern of perfectionism in a non-perfect world.

This both drains their energy and can make them appear a little dissatisfied.
Music I like? I've never heard of a night club that plays 80s thrash metal, 70s hard rock, etc. It's always some horrible dance or pop music, or country. I also don't drink (except maybe a half-glass of wine on rare occasion with a nice meal at home), so I really don't see how the nightclub scene is any better at finding someone I'd enjoy dating than a dating app, in fact at least with the dating app I have a chance to find women who aren't alcoholics who listen to shitty music.

So instead, I've been trying (during better weather than current conditions) hiking groups on Meetup.com, since I do like hiking a lot, and would like to find a woman who also enjoys hiking. That hasn't gone all that well; it seems most of the people in these groups are retirement aged. I do see age-appropriate women out hiking, but they're usually with a husband/boyfriend, not in one of these groups. AFAICT, the single women in the age range I'm interested in (30-45) in this area (DC) are not into hiking at all, but they are into getting drunk from what I've seen of them downtown. And from what I've seen on dating apps and OKCupid, the ones who aren't downtown socialites are mostly Trump voters who spend their weekends at the gun range.

I thought modern video games are predominantly limited by GPU performance? Maybe the argument is that while usually CPU performance isn't the most important part of the equation, video gamers base their purchasing decision on misguided benchmarks that expose it.

The big CPU hog and prime candidates for these vector operations nowadays seems to be video encoding.

Could you be more specific about the "vulnerable numbers" we're talking about? The curve base point is a parameter for ECDSA as well.

I agree that any protocol that required you to generate curves or even base points on the fly would have similar concerns, but we generally don't use those kinds of protocols.

Not related to this article, but I was looking through the Rust survey mentioned at the bottom of the article and was surprised at the amount of people using it for web development.

I'm not very knowledgeable about Rust but I guess I assumed it would not be the best technology to use in that space. Is Rust really that prevalent in web development?

What's equally interesting is that right across the highway in East Palo Alto, there appears to be significant opportunity with much lower housing prices. Now, there are definitely reasons for this, but the economic variance seems to be more than simple financial cost. One of the commenters in the original article mentions this disparity, but it was given short shrift. EPA is not PA...but i can't help but believe that in the next 10 years it will become far more gentrified, simply due to growth pressures.

If "passage of time" is a cause for technical debt, then this sounds more like code rot (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_rot) than "debt".

IMHO, "rot" or "wear and tear" is actually much better metaphor to use with management than "debt" or "unhedged call option". Financial terms implies a degree of precision to the cost, and for debt, it also implies some predictability.

In reality, code that's fine today may become problematic tomorrow for all sorts of reasons -- some internal to the organization, some external, some predictable, some not. Like rot, the exact amount of code that needs refactoring or fixing is difficult to quantify precisely. Like rot, there's often some (sometimes crazy) workaround in lieu of fixing the rotted bits. And just as we can design our structures in ways that are less likely to rot over time, we can write code that's less likely to become problematic in the future (with the corollary that the decision not to invest in better initial infrastructure today may result in problems tomorrow at some unknown time and place).

It depends on the game. Physics-heavy games for example, like Kerbal Space Program or Besiege, are usually CPU-limited.

That looks really cool and I'll have to give learning Rust another try when this lands. Also, the title was pretty wonderful. I spent a bit thinking about it before looking at the domain and realizing what it had to be.
My biggest problem with this sort of schema (and the similar ones other people have mentioned in this thread) is that it doesn't solve any of the difficult problems an addressing system needs to solve.

At best, it's just a "maybe easier to remember than GPS coordinates" system -- but remembering GPS coordinates with this level of precision is not really an insurmountable problem. I know its hard to remember, but up until a decade or so ago, people used to remember dozens of phone numbers, which requires a similar level of memorization.

It doesn't make addresses any easier to find than GPS coordinates -- you pretty much need a GPS. It doesn't necessarily guarantee unique addresses -- you get a different address if you pick different points on the same building or property.

It doesn't encode any routing information. So you're a delivery company asked to deliver a package to 123 Wascally Wabbit. You can convert that to a GPS coordinate easily enough, sure. But then what? Which delivery truck do you put the package on out of which delivery center? You can easily compute which delivery center is physically closest to an address, but that doesn't tell you if there is a natural feature like a river or mountain between the two points. On the other hand, USPS addresses encode the routing information -- the third line is the name of the post office that the delivery vehicle for that address departs from.

It doesn't encode any navigation information. How do you get to the address once you're in the general area? Which road gets you there? If you're a helicopter or a drone or a crow, you can just fly straight to the GPS coordinates, sure. But if you're walking or driving, as most people will be, you've just re-invented the sport of orienteering. This is the problem 911 emergency addresses were intended to solve -- you have a street name and a number for every address, so if you need to find an address in a hurry, you just navigate to the street (which is an easy amount of local knowledge to learn), and then you have a linear ordering of addresses so that you know when you've passed the address you're looking for.

It doesn't encode any service area type information. You want to order a pizza -- does the parlor deliver to 123 Wascally Wabbit? You don't know, and neither do they. You call 911 for a fire truck or ambulance -- are you served by the Newtown fire department, or the Newburgh fire department? Again, your emergency services need to plot your address on a map and then figure out whose region you're in. They can't just say, "Oh, you're in Plymouth, a suburb of Newburgh," and route your call appropriately.

(Essentially) saying "just use (masked) GPS coordinates" may technically assign addresses to all of those billions of places which aren't on named roads in recognized municipalities, but it doesn't solve it usefully.
That comment convinced me to follow up. :)

The biggest question I have about this: Is it really a good idea to make local actors and supervisor trees indistinguishable from remote ones?

Reusability is good.

Abstractions that are so "good" that they obscure potentially order-of-mag performance differences -- I'm not sold. Whether an actor is in-memory with me or across a TCP socket is order-of-mag, and may make the difference between whether my program satisfies is service goals, or fails them abjectly. Especially if that randomized latency happens a number of times, or in unpredictable places.

Error handling paths that have to account for the Two-Generals problem being indistinguishable from local errors I can be confident I'll hear about -- I'm not sold on that, either.

I'd be interested to hear rebuttals to those from folks who have worked deeply with OTP. Is it just... not that bad, in practice? Or are there parts of the abstraction that specifically help counter these concerns?
Whether code is crap is a completely separate question from where it was invented.

Putting signatures onto the individual package files could expose users to mismatch attacks, and would also make it harder to defend against build-trojan theft of signing keys.
I'd be curious as to how you find the boundary of science and decide what "rigor" is. The closer I look the more I find this border is cracked and broken, and the notion of a "science" that produces "objective fact" is a fiction, in the "hard sciences" as much as in the soft ones.

Recently my favorite koan on this subject is from Deirdre McClosky's "If You're So Smart":

>The market for apartments in New York, says the economist, is "just like" a curve on a blackboard. No one has so far seen a literal demand curve floating in the sky above Manhattan. It's a metaphor.

The same is true in physics (etc.), where we have models that describe the world - but these models are only responsible to our subjective demands on what they must do for us. If they lazily drop off in the area around a black hole or in the interstices between galaxies, well, so what? We can still tune our GPS satellites. The only "objectivity" here is what the priests who currently reign happen to tell us is the edge where we can stop worrying.
No, it was that sentence that moved me to comment! They're "reviewing this policy"? They were bound by the policy in this case? That's crazy. There's an exploit. They didn't write it. Nobody should have to wonder if they're going to disclose.

Ultimately I just care about this as an object lesson for how to handle security incidents.
"We do not collect any information from any channels nor do we collect any direct messages that you send to us"

First of all, number of nobles in Poland was much bigger, some say even 10% of population, which made it mostly the customary title, rarely followed by an actual wealth.

More importantly, since Poland was under Russian and German rule nobles were often dispossesed and persecuted.

the priv keyboard is nice, if you have the blackberry keyboard selected.

But as soon as you close the physical keyboard, and get the blackberry soft keyboard, it is pure garbage! years behind the most basic free keyboard. The top 3 softkeyboards for me (swype, google, hacker) have zero support for anything on the hardware keyboard. I can't navigate the cursor, i can't double click alt, i can't swype up, heck i can't even get a word prediction/correction band to show up!

So it is a futile fight with which keyboard you have selected. Then add two languages and now every time you want to switch the language, you also risk switching the keyboard you have selected. It is brain damaging to try to use it.

now, if i have root and can hook up to keyboard open activities on all keyboards (or if blackberry released the source to their keyboard i wouldn't need to do that) i can check if the physical keyboard is open and change it or something.

If police violence is the problem (and it is), then my violence isn't the solution. Worse, it removes me from any kind of moral high ground where I can try to help end police violence by trying to change police policy, training, or character. Instead, it leads me in the direction of civil war.

Is starting a civil war really your best answer to police violence? Or do you think "just kill a few and things will straighten out"?
