The way I see it, they probably did it somewhat incrementally. To some degree, they've ALWAYS programmed the ECUs "to the test", because isn't that basically what the authorities want? A system that meets standards X, Y, and Z, as verified by a test of X, Y, and Z? What got them into trouble was the fact that ECUs became more and more sophisticated, allowing them to gradually isolate X, Y, and Z into ever-shrinking "islands" of compliance. It was tolerated for so long that both engineering and management probably became accustomed to cheating the test to some degree, so when the standards became even more stringent, they basically saw nothing wrong with creating a special "clean" ECU profile narrowly tailored to the specific parameters of the test procedure. Granted, they knew they were cheating, but I think when you're inside the corporate bubble and everyone's operating on the premise that cheating has always been tolerated on the test, it becomes harder to be the guy that says "this is too much".

I didn't say it was the only language that could implement itself elegantly. Admittedly, I've never seen seen a Forth implementation in Forth, so for all I know, it's incredibly ugly. Or so beautiful it could bring tears to the eyes of god. I don't know.
> It may just be a couple commands more, but it's unnecessary cognitive load for many app devs.

My general approach (not only to interacting with k8s) is to create fabric files with list of commands that makes sense in given place. I've seen people do similar things with Makefiles.

You would type "fab -l" and see list of commands, including "restart_pods" with the docstring describing what it means. Or even broader command for "rebuild and restart". Not only it helps me as I get auto completion (https://gist.github.com/Fandekasp/1522827), but also others can get things done without understanding all the details. And it's easier to migrate everyone to use slightly different command, e.g. add a flag.
It's not necessarily going to be easier, but if your business plans to sell primarily to the US market and wants to accept credit card payments then incorporating in the US with a US bank account may be easier than trying to do so from many other countries. If on the other hand you are mostly planning on addressing your local market then a US based entity may make things more complicated for no reason. I think Atlas is targeted at the former.
> What's less attractive is Dogmatic Bikeshedding C++ OO Fundamentalism.

Is that a thing? I always saw more of that in the Java world than C++ -- Java's standard library is rife with the singleton factory decorator monstrosities that have come to be associated with OO, C++ and the standard library have always felt more generic-programy. Now egregious use of obscure template meta programming tricks because of perceived (vs measured) performance gains, I've seen some horrors there...

I mentioned SELinux in a previous comment along the same vein.
I think he is high enough to be guilty but still a low level that he cannot "lawyer up".

So he seems a perfect person to push for plea bargain so they can build a good case against people actually responsible for this. At least I hope they will try to do that.

But, cynic in me says that this is the end: they will claim this multi-billion dollar scam was architected, coordinated, and executed by him and only him. Move on.
YC validates that a company might be worth a lot one day. Employees factor this into their decisions both to join a company and in salary negotiation. Everyone knows this and anything less then full acknowledgement of the fact is complete chickenshit.

To then turn around on a YC forum and say "It is completely fair that employees come out of a $MM acquisition with the skin on their backs" is equally chickenshit.

Until startups stop banking on the marketing of equity to employees I'm always going to advocate for said employees.
Fascinating. Had a read of the first chapter, so far I love the exposition.

Why should this matter to someone interacting with Vala as a programmer the language?

These are implementation details of the runtime. Vala predates the new plans laid out over the last ~18 months, but at this point, shouldn't Vala be a research branch of C#? Seems like this kind of approach would serve as a multiplier for the benefits Vala is trying to bring to the world, from both sides.
The days of sieges and naval blockades are behind us now. Probably.
No, no I haven't. I know a bit about programming languages, not massive amounts.

Now that you've had some time to stare smugly down your nose at me, my point was that it was a testament to the expressiveness of Python, and the simplicity of the VM that that VM was a reasonable thing to write in 500 lines of python. I also noted that it's sligtly less impressive in light of how Scheme was able to do something similar, but in a significantly more compact manner, as the language was more flexable, and simpler.

Hacker News is moderated but not censored in any sense that I worry about. With zero moderation you get pretty much just spambots. With bare minimum moderation you get trolls, schills, and harassers, so cohesive conversations don't happen because points can't be made in full. Hacker News is the best source I know of for news + discussion because the rules and moderation censor the noisy, unsubstantive comments that would otherwise derail an important conversation.

That said, I wish there were more forums like HN because I would like to follow the same quality of conversation that I see here on subjects besides computer science and tech companies.
There are certainly worse things you could put on a resume. It sounds silly at first, but I'd feel better about hiring someone who had hundreds or thousands of satisfied customers with few or no unhappy ones.

> I'm a sado-vegan. I only eat plants that have been proven to actively signal other plants when being killed.

I've never understood why moral vegetarians seem to think that hurting and killing plants is so much better than hurting and killing fleas. Plants are well-established to react to injuries and to communicate to other nearby plants when they're under attack. If you're going to argue that you have a moral obligation not to hurt chickens, you need to at least be ready to argue that you don't have the same obligation not to hurt onions, which feel strongly enough about being attacked that they actively fight back.
In New England restaurants you'll find 'scrod' on a lot of menus. It means something different in every restaurant.
Pure speculations: Wouldn't it be possible for an app without accessibility access to just kill and relaunch another app in a wrapper? This wrapper having hooks into system APIs?
It is sort of perplexing getting into self driving cars when it's such a crowded field already with giant's such as Tesla and Google already pretty far along. Especially since miles driven with a lot of experience in edge cases being fundamental to testing and teaching such technologies.

Manifesto of Open Disruption and Participation
As a counterpoint, I find the web version pretty great on iOS. Minimal JavaScript, loads fast, everything on one long screen, and the back button always works, leaving you exactly where you left off.

It is a nice counterpoint to overly heavy web that we have unfortunately gravitated towards.
If it doesn't have any self-replication code, then how can did DrWeb get a copy? Did somebody drop in on a Tor hacking forum, or is it being distributed through a separate system, or did they just make it up for marketing, or what?

I pretty frequently edit headlines when I submit links. In fact I think it would have been better if this submitter had in fact done so. I just think it's unreasonable in general to expect submitters to do this. It takes time and most submissions will never make it anywhere near the front page. If it does make it to the front page, and the title is egregious in some way, one of the mods may re-title it anyway.

Not at all recently. But youtube's policies and the community's reactions to them are very much a case of "First they came for the x". Happens very regularly, and only the affected ones speak up, which is just not enough when we're talking about a web giant like google/youtube.

"shouldn't Vala be a research branch of C#?"

Vala is a nicer shinier layer for programming with GObject in C. I don't really understand what it has to do with C#? Do you mean just the syntactic influence?

Keep in mind, lots of vocal people hated Mono, not just because of some vague looming threat of possible patent action, but because they disliked the memory heavy and slow startup nature of the runtime (see: Tomboy).

Look into Syncthing. It's free and libre and works excellently as a replacement.
This is very similar issue that made migration to Python 3 so painful.

A lot of the code had broken unicode from the start. The difference was that it worked in python 2 most of the time and failed on special cases, while python 3 was stricter and mixing bytes with string always caused it to crash.

Once dict() is ordered and people will use that property (even unknowingly) if the behavior changes again in the future, a lot of their code will be broken.

Snapchat tells me that nobody has access to messages I've sent to friends except for me and my friend, and that the message is deleted after the message is viewed. I have no evidence to show that they don't, and thus far no precedence not to trust them.

Interesting to see people pick apart what constitutes renewable and base loads etc. It is an interesting milestone that some part of the planet can be lived in with electricity that is only from renewable sources. That's pretty neat, you can live there after civilization collapses (assuming you can displace whomever is already living there :-)

Its a huge boon for a nation state to reach the crossover point of 100% renewables. Then they can start to grow it from there. It is much harder for a nation-state to simply lose access to imported energy sources, then there is the whole rioting and anarchy until enough population dies off that the remaining start seeing the others as necessary for survival not a threat to it.
Very cool concept. I would love to use it and help it.
If you need real-time file syncing, you could run a lightweight Linux install in VirtualBox and install Dropbox there. Dropbox on Linux runs in userspace (not as root) and so it's much more secure. Share the file between VirtualBox/Linux and your Mac, and you're done.
> 2) With that logic all applications "have" all my files, but you bet I'd find it weird if I caught Libreoffice uploading files of interest to a service of theirs.

On macOS this is not true though, for well-behaved document-based apps! Sandboxing prevents access to anything you haven't explicitly granted access to. I don't know if Libreoffice implements it correctly, though.

I mentioned something similar in one of the other threads on the same subject, but here it goes:

Right now, using facebook isn't like choosing an email account or cellular provider.

It is more like one of the old telecoms. And unfortunately, if you move to one of the 'others', it isn't compatable with facebook. It is truly more akin to a phone company that won't connect to other companies.

Which means that switching definitely has its costs if friends, family, etc are already on the network. This is a huge advantage in Facebook's favor, and part of what makes entry into the social media realm somewhat difficult. Folks have attempted, but none have taken hold well enough to be worth the time.

Not a hopeless situation, just has challenges. I'm not sure what the answer is to solve the stuff outside of passing some sort of regulations, either protecting speech to a point and/or demanding cross-communication so choice seems reasonable.

I understand Apples standard secrecy policies, but in developing a self driving car it feels highly counter-productive. It's hard to test software and gather data in the real world while simultaneously keeping everything under wraps.
Rewind to December 2006 and I could just as easily imagine someone saying the same about smartphones.

It's early days in self-driving cars, and Apple has a lot of talent, a ton of cash, and (generally) a huge amount of desire to nail the user experience in ways other companies cannot or will not. Clearly their project is experiencing issues, but I wouldn't count them out.
