It's a good idea. I suspect you will want this to be selectively applied though. Not that I know anything at all about your opinions or positions, but most people have holy cows they do not want questioned. Also, there is A LOT of BS being published these days. Very nearly all biomed papers can be torn apart and dismissed after a day or two because they contain the same statistical and logical errors over and over.
Is anybody else using ridiculously long variable names?
I've seen our own codebase end up employing rather long names pretty much everywhere, things like:

val documentAndPdfSavedOnDiskJsonStates = ...
val resumeAndPortfolioThumbnailsJsonStates = ...

Is this worth debating? Good idea/non-issue/binary size issues maybe?

Best regards!

> By SaaS I meant company offering subdomains/custom domains that needs LE - not LE itself.

Ahhh, sorry, my misunderstanding. (But an alternative comment - it's not that those SaaS companies "need LE", it's just that they want free ssl certs. I _want_ free Tesla's - my local Tesla dealership doesn't care... That doesn't make their prices "ridiculously high", it a problem with my expectations.)

> LE is not a charity. It's a business.

Not sure I (or they) agree with you there:

"Let’s Encrypt is a free, automated, and open certificate authority (CA), run for the public’s benefit. Let’s Encrypt is a service provided by the Internet Security Research Group (ISRG)."

"Consider becoming a sponsor or simply donate via PayPal."

Sure there's a wide grey line between "a business", "a 501c non-profit", and "a charity" - but if your revenue stream comes from a "please donate or sponsor us" link, not your product's pricing (whether that's a thing/service you sell, or the privacy of your free users you're selling), I think you're a lot closer to the "charity" end of that line than the "business" end.
SaltStack formula: Django stack, Varnish caching and HAProxy load balancing
What I think the parent poster is saying is that in hindsight, you can easily say which customers you were right to pivot for and which your were wrong to pivot for, but going in from the front no one, and I mean NO ONE can actually, really tell which customers are weird customization cases and which customers are revenue-bridges that will lead you to better market fit.

There are always obvious cases in this mind of thing, but the larger point is that we could easily have been looking at an alternative history where Uber was on the scrap heap, and we would all stand here, wagging our beards, berating them for "moving from niche use-case to niche use-case" instead of doubling down and building something of long-term use and value, of executing on their vision. Instead, we're saying that Uber was an instance of a GOOD pivot, but at Uber, at the time it was happening, anyone could've made the argument, "Hey, aren't we just filling a really niche use-case here, of regular people who are willing to trust their lives to unlicensed strangers for a ride?"
To this I say, we simply love ourselves more than we love others and you don't have to beat yourself up on that.

Somewhere, there's someone that loves you enough to accept you for this. ;) Everyone needs family, even Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent.
Been a while, may not be entirely correct:

Slashdot's model was perhaps a little overcomplicated, but my favourite feature was the ability to tag up/down votes with flavours. +1 Informative was different to +1 Funny, and "Factually incorrect" was a different downvote to "Off-topic spam" (whatever they were called).

Other quirks off the top of my head: it capped at +5 and ... -1, I think? The score represented a thing closer to the up/down ratio than "Facebook likes". There was a dedicated -1 Overrated moderation for "I don't disagree that it's interesting, just not +5 interesting".

Also, logged in users got a fixed number of moderation points at random intervals, and you couldn't moderate in a story that you commented in. I'd like to believe this discouraged "throwing away" points on low-effort joke comments, but I'm not sure the facts of Slashdot comments entirely bears that out.

EDIT: And then there was meta-moderation...
I do as a way to self-document the code. Many people who I have worked with love this because the code is easier to read, easier to understand, and becomes more maintainable. Just my two cents.
There's another book from this publisher called Grokking Algorithms. That one left me very impressed. Usually, I don't care for any "simplified/easified/dumbed-down" books because they often feel like a compilation of buzzwords with all the important bits removed. I thought Grokking Algorithms was simple, yet very meaty/substantial if that makes sense.

Well, particularly with aerostats (tethered to the ground) you really need to be on the ground, not just engaged in an aerial bombing campaign like in Syria. Though I am surprised the Syrian government doesn't use these - I suspect the electronics and software might be a limiting factor.
Why wouldn't it be? He's just using it as a blog.
I believe all the "Grokking" books have the same editor with very high standards. :)
Think Stories, Not Slides
Do you think part of the problem with "online education" lies in defining what an education is really supposed to achieve? Should I be guaranteed a job at the end of this series of courses? Should I learn for leisure? Why try to build a one-size-fits-all university on the web anyways?
We were looking to break up our monolithic rails app into micro-services so devs could iterate and develop faster. We also thought that the application as a whole would become more failure resistant. Unfortunately, inter-dependancies among the services themselves meant that the failure-resistance didn't pan out as we thought.
That is also my point of view, severity and other factors matter. But that also seems to imply the same thing for vulnerabilities - discovering a remote code execution vulnerability in Windows might warrant a different action than a hidden master password in an obscure forum software no one really used in a decade. The danger is still more abstract but it can still cause real harm to real people.
It's because the RSS community never figured out standard, easy ways for users to:

1) Find new feeds

2) Subscribe to feeds

They got close on #2 with the addition of feed autodiscovery (http://www.petefreitag.com/item/384.cfm) as a built-in feature of browsers, but the UX never got polished enough to make it a single-click thing, and eventually the browser vendors decided it wasn't being used enough and phased it back out again. #1 is a nut that nobody ever even came close to cracking.

In retrospect, all the energy that went into the war that ended up splitting the community into RSS and Atom camps was energy that was diverted from solving existential problems at a critical moment. It'd be interesting to read a retrospective asking the various players in that war how they feel now about the decisions they made then.
> Our Congress is very much in the pocket of the health care industry.

When you question some group's integrity please show restraint and back it up with solid evidence. Without that these statements are on part with racist statements like "all blacks are criminals".

It is absolutely true that government regulation is hurting healthcare in USA. It has drove the prices up and made understanding healthcare far more difficult. Hospitals do not benefit by these regulations, Insurance providers don't benefit either, Patients don't benefit either. The shi*load of these regulations has already crossed the mark where anything makes sense.

Government regulation is driven less by healthcare industries willingness to get hurt in the butt but by the voters who want government to do "something" everytime someone dies.

Profit margins of insurance companies are nothing worth boasting about. If the congress is really in pocket of insurance companies let me say they are doing a lousy job for their masters.
You assume that your own research machine can't be compromised, nor are the communication channels of the organization at fault.

So, it won't be fixed.

Hopefully only one or two people know about the same flaw you found...

Oh, but you would know ahead of time if concrete physical harm could possibly come to the victim of an accident?

Well good for you! You should probably be in charge of defending all infosec research, since apparently you can't be hacked.
http://www.chesterton.org/3-acres-and-a-cow/

That would suffice.
You get a completely separate network stack. None of the network devices are copied/cloned. You can move a network device into the container, but it's no longer accessible in the host.

Since most people don't have spare physical devices, there are a couple of approaches using virtual devices. You can create a "veth" device pair, which is basically a two-ended loopback connection. Move one end of the veth into the container, configure them as 192.168.1.1 and 2 (or whatever), and set up NAT. Or you can create a "macvlan" device, which hangs off an existing device and generates a new MAC address. Any traffic destined for the macvlan's MAC address goes to the macvlan device; any other traffic goes to the parent device. So I can move the macvlan into the container and assign it the address of 123.234.34.46, and it will ARP for that address using its own MAC address.

The container also has its own routing table, iptables (firewall) rule set, etc. And anyone listening on a broadcast interface in the host won't get packets destined to the container, or vice versa. It's basically like a virtual machine.

> I've never been able to understand how a parent could advocate against European-style healthcare goals

By the same token, I've never understood how parents could advocate against having a one-income family.

Oh wait, I know. Because everything has a cost, and everything is a trade-off.

The reason to not have a year-long leave is the same reason not to have a stay-at-home parent: it's expensive.

Of course, some people do wind up making that compromise. But Americans don't expect everyone else pay for their decision. Thank God.
The way I have seen this commonly solved is to draw each item from back to front (highest Y value, assuming 0 at bottom of screen and >0 at top). But every item is the size of one square, or is in fact multiple items the size of 1 square which make up the larger object. It just seems like a simpler and more efficient solution and you don't need to worry about cycles.
We did have a lead with a vision, and part of the vision was standards for each service (for example, file structure in Go). I can see the rationale behind it; a new dev can onboard very quickly on to a new service. But in hindsight, maybe it wasn't thought out enough.
The value of the piece of paper will vary, but evidence that you can do Job X is important in lots of cases--especially as experience accumulates and time from degree (or non-degree) increases.

The issue is that if all MOOCs were was another way to view lectures and do some exercises in an online setting for free/cheap, they wouldn't have been viewed with any particular excitement. But that's pretty much what they turned out to be.

I'm sure they've been a useful way of learning for some. But they haven't fundamentally changed anything.
Hmm, you certainly can, but many of the intuitions come from reading little bits of python code. It's intuitive but I'd recommend doing a python tutorial first.
makomk is right. US crude production is dropping since Saudi Arabia increased supply to drop oil prices below what the other suppliers can support. https://ycharts.com/indicators/us_crude_oil_field_production
When you say obligation, do you actually mean that? An obligation is enforced by some sort of penalty, either legal (ultimately a threat of violence) or social (public shaming). There is no incentive for meeting an obligation outside of avoiding punishment, so why would individuals and private enterprises do any infosec work?
Yea, basic income isn't really that associated with leftism. The super-hard-right libertarian stance of "let people starve if they can't hack it" obviously doesn't like it, but otherwise it's basically a simple combination of wanting a social floor but without the attendant complexity, perverse incentives, and inefficiency of means-tested gov't programs. This view fits pretty comfortably in the center and center-right, while the left often just sees it as a way to low-key dismantle social programs that they're fond of.
Yes - the physical limit is 4-5 compartments so there are definitely plans to go beyond two. Longer timeframes depend on your digestive system - the outer bound is the maximum time before the pill moves through this system. XR version would be pretty awesome (kind of like a 'caffeine drip') - stayed tuned on that as we have some interesting stuff in the pipeline. As far as nootropics go, right now we are only planning to ship the fully formed capsules with our supplements inside.

No it wasn't a complete rewrite. We started by separating out the most mission critical components. Maybe that's where we went wrong; the most mission critical components were quite large and unwieldy to split out all at once. There was also the overhead of keeping the newly separated out component and the monolithic app in sync.
Hello! Thanks for your detailed feedback! For all of the vitamins and minerals that we offer, we can put 100% of the recommended daily value in the Multiply Pills. These values are determined by the National Institutes of Health, and they can be expressed either in mg or in IU (there are equivalence tables).
I would personally disclose RCE in Windows, not least because I think Microsoft does a better-than-average job in dealing with the research community.

But I need to be careful saying things like that, because it is very easy for me to say that, because I don't spend any time looking for those kinds of flaws. Security research is pretty specialized now, and I don't do spare-time Windows work. I might feel differently if I did.

I would not judge the (many) researchers who would not necessarily disclose that flaw immediately.
About Vitamin B12, if you need to inject it for medical reasons you should definitely continue to use your medications. About Vitamin C, 2g/day is 2000% of the recommended value. We plan to include the possibility to increase the dosage beyond 100%, but we will not reach such extreme values as they are not recommended for the vast majority of the population. Finally, about the additional supplements that you mentioned, we do let our customers suggest us new supplements to include in the Multiply Pill. Our list of supplement is not static, and we will expand it including the supplements that meet our scientific standards (validation in the medical literature) and have sufficient demand!
Yep. I used to not do this, but now, self documentation and clear understanding of how that variable should be used is awesome.

In Rust I've even started doing something additional which is use the shadowing feature. This was always a big no-no in other languages, some don't allow it, others do something different, but in Rust it can be used safely to reduce the explosion of variables in certain contexts. This helps reduce the need for distinctions between variables, allowing for shorter names.
Family != Self. It's akin to saying I can be my own spouse or my own kid. Is the Christian tripartite, God being the father, son and holy spirit a simple enough idea to you or any layman? Can God be God and also be man at the same time? I can be independent enough and but may still have family depending on me. You may want to define 'independent', surely it's not simple enough yet.

Can we not whimsically redefine words that are already well-defined or at least explicitly state how you want to use it if you're going to make a generic statement with it else stick to it's common meaning.
NSA’s use of software flaws to hack foreign targets posed risks to cybersecurity
Huh? All of the MOOCs very early made it clear that their business model was selling certifications, drive that's where the marketable value was. It didn't take anyone involved 5 years to recognize that.
Aerobatic (https://www.aerobatic.com/) takes a similar, though slightly more flexible, approach with their static site deployments for Bitbucket.

You pick a branch then (optionally) specify a sub-directory of your repository to deploy.

I hate it...they removed the information tab and made it ridiculously hard to stay on the same "vein" of content you were listening to without going bak to the home page.
Yup, we will be using data to hone your pill based on your needs! If you are interested in working with us, ping us at info@multiplylabs.com.
Please do tell me about all the carnage you've averted by looking for, finding, and reporting vulnerabilities.

Are there other slices of my time on this planet you also feel entitled to a share of?

Would we all be better off if I went to work on a cat-sharing startup and spent all my spare time playing Dwarf Fortress? That way I wouldn't find anything, and you wouldn't have to worry about vulnerabilities anymore, right?

I seriously don't understand the logic you're employing here.
Ask HN: Poll: Do you git stash your WIP?
For the unfamiliar, git stash [0] is a solution to a problem like this:

You're working on a feature, and suddenly realize the need to switch gears to work on something else — say a prod hotfix — and you need to store your WIP somewhere, but you're not ready to commit. You run `git stash` with an optional commit message and get back to business.

What happens for me is I end up making many small stashes across many projects. It might be a trivial change or a prototype of an idea, sometimes I forget creating them in the first place and implement the same thing again and/or they become stale.

My question for others is:

Do you use git stash? Do you forget them sometimes some?

For some more context: I'm pondering writing a little program to peruse all stashes from all repos on your drive in one place.

[0]: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-stash
Yes, I stash and forget
Yes, I stash and don't forget
No, I don't stash — I commit my WIP on current

No, I don't stash — I commit my WIP on a new branch

I'm not sure it was so much "guaranteed a job at the end of this series of courses." But I do think that there was a suggestion, hope, even promise that MOOCs could replace traditional classroom education and degrees under some circumstances.

The issue is that, to a large degree, they mostly solved the easy thing. Making videos of university lectures widely available isn't hard. Neither is making other broadcast aspects of the syllabus available (e.g. in MIT OCW). A lot of good material was made available through Coursera and edX. But, frankly, a Wordpress blog with embedded videos and links would have worked nearly as well for a lot of this material.

Yes, CS somewhat uniquely benefits from the opportunity to reasonably evaluate code written for problem sets. But, for the most part, evaluation is at the multiple choice level.
I owned a PI Crown Vic and disagree that it's perfectly designed for a city. It is HUGE. It's a very long car which can make it hard to park and maneuver in tight roads.

That said, it's a fantastic highway car. Go 10-15mph over in the passing lane and everyone gets out of your way, especially if you still have push bars and a spot light.
That's not what public means, though, in any context.

But what is the solution? Does the US build its own GFW to "protect" its own Internet? If a Chinese company wants to build a service that Americans can use, aside from blocking credit card payments for those services, the US would have to build its own GFW.

I do not believe that both Koller's and Andrew Ng's transitions out of Coursera reflect badly on Coursera or on MOOCs in general. Instead, what you're seeing is two incredibly brilliant professors (I was a grad student in the same lab as both, and I TA'd for Koller) returning to their area of expertise. The world will probably be a better place for it.
Aren't both brain architecture issues?

Corporate incentives are built around converting avarice into societal progress and a are incentivized to find the shortest path to that profit.

With NPR it's entirely possibly that your commute in the morning is different content than mine. I can't possibly listen to them all day but I know one thing for sure. In general, they have positions on topics and they run that INTO the ground basically assuming everyone must agree with it. Then it becomes part of their narrative. They are very picky when to put on dissenting voices. Often times when they are needed, you get none. And NPR is horrible to Trump when they'd get respect if they'd buck the trend of the rest of media.

That's republican health policy. It was essentially the Romney plan rolled out in Massachusetts, and the only thing that would pass.

Obamacare is actually working very well in compelling the providers to participate. In most regions, private practices are rolling up into regional health systems, often around anchor hospitals.
Because you agree with their presentation of opinions. When you don't, you want to call them out, then and there. And they should hear it. They are after all paid in tax money and supposed to represent listeners and readers.
This is very sad! I for one think that MOOCs have huge potential to disrupt higher education even if it becomes a non-profit at the end.
Yes, they knew that the business model was to sell certifications--not sure what else it would be.

However, that Coursera certifications would be valued (presumably by employers) on a mass scale was always an aspiration without an awful lot of evidence behind it. (Yes, there are certifications that people pay a lot of money for but they're essentially all focused on a very specific set of skills and tied into some sort of ongoing program.)
Pardon my use of words but I think it is foolish not to accept that there are pretty serious trade-offs involved here and there are perfectly legitimate reasons why single payer is a very bad idea. I personally think a single payer system in USA would pretty much resemble Veterans Affairs. Corrupt, inefficient and something that makes consumers profoundly unhappy while taking away a good chunk of your hard earned wealth.
