No way, that's absurd (the "help him" message, not that Assange might be in danger). First, those tweets were not posted one after another, or even in chronological order. Second, it's a mixture of missing letters and extra letters, and for example in "recipie" they select "e", when it's obviously "i" that is the extra letter. And then why take three letters from "algorithim"? And most importantly, many of these tweets were posted before Assange even lost his internet connection.

I will say that I am totally dismayed by the general response toward Wikileaks on HN. I wish Assange the best, and hope Wikileaks continues with its work in the American political sphere for a long time. I don't know so much about Wikileaks' activity relating to Turkey, for instance, and if that was handled improperly, but the Podesta and DNC leaks are proving extremely valuable to American democracy.

Absolutely and I'm not against innovation at all. The exercise of making JavaScript a valid server-side alternative often seems pointless, though. What's the benefit of JavaScript on the server side other than "one language"?

Perl, Java, Spring, Ruby on Rails each offered significant benefits over what existed before. What does JavaScript on the server side do better than other solutions? There's the event loop and non-blocking behaviour but is that enough for most applications to justify using JavaScript on the server side?
Or with the Internet :-D
Perhaps, then, twitter is not a malady but a symptom. The idea that we can whittle all of our ideas down to 140 characters has been building for decades, as you say, and only now manifests itself explicitly.

I don't think it's too nostalgic to pine for longer, epic exhortation of ideas. People still give memorable speeches (cf. Obama's "More Perfect Union"), and people still memorize the speeches of old. They give context to the soundbites and give depth when we want to go beyond the misquotes. But yes, blaming twitter goes too far, because it certainly has its place, too. It's just another tool of communication that has its benefits and pitfalls.
Well the last two things are or should be illegal. If law enforcement in the US actually cared about enforcing the bulk of the law instead of only the parts which are personally profitable (drugs), you wouldn't really need to worry about them. Regarding debt collectors, well predatory lending practices are illegal as well, and beyond that its your personal responsibility to pay your debts.
Statistical Data Exploration Using Spark 2.0: Shape of Data with Histograms
I did contracting work on an Android app which records diagnostic data from smoke alarms. You press a button on the alarm and it emits a high-pitched series of chirps. Phone records, decodes and displays stuff like battery level, time of last recorded alarm etc. The recording scheme was rather simple, only 10 or so bits per second, and used Manchester coding. Most problems I ran into were due to audio hardware differences on different Android phones. Some phones have multiple mics and there is no consistent way to specify which one to use (or, more precisely, to know the location of the mic used). One workaround for this was to record in stereo--phones would usually record the each mic to its own stereo channel. Then the app can look at both, and use the one with a better SNR.

Some phones do proprietary audio filtering and noise reduction at hardware or driver level--you don't get access to the raw recorded audio data. On the upside, all phones these days are plenty fast to do CPU intensive audio processing.
1. I didn't call naked female breasts porn, I only said that classifiers have a hard time identifying what is porn vs educational imagery. One example if you think about it is that many simple classifiers utilize skin color. More skin color, more likely to be porn. So yeah, even if you don't want to consider just naked female breasts porn, your classifier might still make that mistake.

2. As someone who works in abuse, defining porn is really nuanced. You don't get to define porn for yourself, and while I actually do agree with where you stand on cultural norms in general, when it comes to offering public services you actually have to just go with what people find acceptable per country / comply with laws. So in some countries what would be called porn isn't considered that in others (topless women in Europe, or bikini-clad women in USA).

You can argue that all countries shouldn't body shame women or set rules for what they can and cannot wear / especially with double standards vis a vis men. (And I personally hold that view too.) But that's a societal issue / opinion and not related to having to define service behavior, which exists in society and has to comply with its whims.
Problem me with Vue is it's template language. Why invent a new one and not use JSX? Main selling point for me with JSX is it's the most type-safe templating language I've seen when used together with TypeScript.

People have pointed out here that it's easy to use JSX with Vue, and that could be something I might look at.

Exactly my thought. Every European country I've lived in works in pretty much the same way. Of course saying it comes from Japan makes it look more sophisticated ;)
By European standards it's good old corruption, but in US it's suddenly an "industry".

Whenever we have problem here, first mentioned solution would be Single National Registry of Whatever.

VAT returns fraud - make registry of all refunds. VAT evasion - log all VAT transaction in tax office database. Land disputes and corruption - make a map with all registered land plots and their owners and make it open. Voter suppression and voting fraud - make voter registry, have it always up to date and let voters check if they are on list online.

Corrupt officials - make open registry of tax declarations of all officials, MPs and their family members. Property and corporate ownership fraud - make registries of companies and properties and make it open.

Passports take longer than 30 days to issue - registry of all citizens, residents and everybody who entered country. And the first thing you do, if you are foreigner or citizen, you get tax number and keep that ugly piece of paper with you. Without tax number you don't even exists.
It says they tried not to be biased, but it doesn't look like they tried at all. Apparently every design decision made in Vue is superior. This isn't a fair comparison and shouldn't try to masquerade as such, it would be fine if it was positioned as an opinion piece on why we think Vue's approach is better instead of a "perfect framework" ad it is.

But after using JSX I'm never going back to a templating system. JSX has an intuitive direct mapping to JS that lets you use the full power of a programming language without needing to learn another crippled DSL syntax.

If you've never used React before after reading this you could be forgiven for thinking it's a complex monstrosity needing a week of prep to build a HelloWorld app which is a biased gross over exaggeration. React has one core concept, Components, which is easier to create, encapsulate and reuse better than anything else I've seen. I also believe in React's being able to use JS for Views, Style and Behavior making it easier to encapsulate cohesive Components.

I consider Ecosystem, community, dev resources / backing, encapsulation and reuse integral for adopting a framework which React wins easily on but is quickly disregarded here.

Whislt this is a biased guide Vue has convinced me enough to evaluate it, I'm especially interested in its performance and being able to reference it like a jQuery script tag which I believe is the biggest shortcoming of modern JS fxs which has succumbed to npm micro module madness inflicting complexity and friction on all developers which is IMO the major source of complexity when adopting a modern fx.

This attitude only promotes the idea that "well we might as well just continue like this then". If you can never forgive a company for doing wrong when they've corrected themselves years ago and now have a track record of doing nothing else that's irked you then what's the point in them ever bothering to make the change?

If what they do is useful to you but have a feature or bug or something else you don't like then you absolutely should forgive them if they then fix that feature or bug to work in a way you like. They may as well never bother fixing things if they can never be forgiven after repenting their internet sins.

If you've since found something that does do what you want then fair play, fill your boots. Otherwise you're being petty for the sake of being petty.
In Sweden anyone can look up where you live. And your earnings. And your grades from school. All government data is public, unless it is secret. (If you live under serious threats you can apply to get your data classified, in which case it is only allowed to be handled by people with clearance for that, which tend to make your life a bit complicated.)

Since it is the same for everyone, including the prime minister and the king which is kind of the point for a society that wishes to be transparent, it doesn't make much difference for the prevalence of spammy services. Except maybe lowering the market value of address registers.
While I saw that comment coming a mile off, "tight coupling" of your components to their templates is not quite the same thing as tightly coupling completely seperate classes with completely different datasets and responsibilities.

It is unlikely that it gets deprecated here. It's used for too many things. For instance one part of the free healthcare you get is a local doctor usually a few blocks from where you live where you can go for basic needs. This is also assigned based on your current address.

My personal code base is C++/cmake and Python.

It would be really nice with a way to slowly start writing code in Rust instead.
I don't doubt that you can.
But in a lot of situations, as long as the slow stuff like db queries and api calls don't block, it's good enough.
And that's easier to accomplish in JS.

The EU version of that WiFi regulation also has a clause that while the default firmware for the router can't be allowed to be used for such purposes, users should always be able to install their own firmware.

If your primary threat model is an active attacker in proximity to the server, rather than the client, SSL provides _NO_ security: The attacker can intercept the plaintext communication to your domain used to show control over the domain and trivially obtain a certificate.

If your threat model is adversarial nation states that control a CA or ten and are willing to create some bad issuance drama... again no security added by browser SSL.

If your threat model is an attacker who will compromise your webserver because no one can keep up with the flood of new vulnerabilities, and the only way you can keep a private key private is to keep it offline-- which can't be used with SSL then again, no joy.

Some people believe the use of HTTPS in these cases creates a false sense of security and reduces the likelyhood that people will check using other mechanisms. I am pretty confident() that they are wrong and that they've not actually measured the effect. But it's not a crazy position to take.

(Especially when you mix in how easy it is for https snafus to result in giving users scary warnings that make them blind to scary warnings)

(: confidence due to religiously verifying packages and keys, and finding _frequently_ that they are unverifiable even on major high profile targets like major linux distros or crypto libraries... e.g. signed with a key that is signed by no one else and exists only in the same directory as the binary; if people were actually checking I wouldn't find so many messed up cases; Also confident by watching the number of .sig downloads on my own software-- no one checks).

Ask HN: Is Sr. Developer appropriate job title?
I am a full stack programmer work with startups and maintain a few open source packages.

I am working for a startup which I joined three years back. I was the first tech guy to join. Tech team now has 10 developers where as startup head count has grown from 10 to 100.
Overseen the product development, more than 50% of code is written by me.

I contributed in following ways

- Code

- Generally decide tech strategy

- Built tech team culture

- Established development and project management practices

- Help product design

I'm 35+, love coding and intend to continue doing all of above in coming years.

Company looks heading in right direction. There are investment rounds and also good revenue.

My title since we started is Sr Developer.

Questions:
a. What should be the appropriate title?
b. Should I push for equity? Found informed me couple of times that he is working on it.

Lastly, I feel there are chances that later some 'Director X', 'Product manager' might try to act like my boss.

I didn't use vue, but https://vuejs.org/guide/syntax.html did not look so complicated.

But you are right, i am not sure to use a template system again. But the advantage is cleaner code, many people change quickly to spaghetti code in jsx (mix all together, ifs, loops, ...).

You talk about JSX as if it is some sort of standard. A significant number of people aren't interested in compiling to JS or language extensions for a number of reasons.

I appreciate what Facebook were trying to achieve with JSX, but libraries like Mithril serve as an example that native templates can be done without a syntax extension.

Europe has had a lot of bad experiences when it comes to how we've treated our minorities, and the census has often been used as a tool for finding "undesirables". And I'm not only talking about countries like Germany here; Sweden had a policy of forced sterilisation for reasons of "racial hygiene", that it didn't discontinue until 1975.

This comment is so on point, I love working with code that has been built with that philosophy. The code remains simple and you don't waste hours trying to seperate useful complexity from bloat.
That was informative. Thank you.
Spaghetti code refers to poor coupling not cohesive encapsulation or being able to build complex smart views which can easily be refactored using native programming language constructs. I'd much prefer having a single powerful language for everything instead of forced artificial friction on having to spread your component over multiple DSLs.
Seriously? It's OK if only one site/company gets taken offline at a time?

There's no RFC that talks about methods for preventing or mitigating hundreds of thousands of machines all sending arbitrary traffic at you at the same time.

The only way to protect yourself from that sort of attack is to buy filtering from someone who has a bigger pipe than the largest DDoS available, and have them filter the packets so that you only get clean traffic. Unless you know of an alternative that nobody else has heard of yet.

So you wind up buying transit / scrubbing from one of a few big providers, because that's the only way to avoid being sniped by DDoSers.

Claiming that it is less productive when you barely know it isn't fair...

I'm really quite familiar with both go and rust, and I can say straight out that go is more productive than rust.

...but because rust is in any way a worse or less productive language (that remains to be seen), but because it has an immature ecosystem with few high quality crates and virtually no tooling.

Go has a lot of very polished tooling (eg. gocode) that is supported in multiple editors, and a variety of high level packages for all kinds of things.

Certainly I'm willing to acknowledge that if you're using vim without any plugins to write your code, or if you're evaluating the effectiveness of writing individual functions, it's a much more abstract kind of thing.

...but have you actually bench marked yourself coding a real world project, from scratch, in both, from idea to delivery? I have, and for me rust was an order of magnitude less productive than go. At least.

Once the tooling for rust gets up and going we'll be a much better position, but...

You're effectively saying that there is zero productivity boost in the extensive go tooling ecosystem (which rust currently doesn't have); that's pretty hard sell...

Why it is madness?

The color of skin is no more relevant to anything than color of hair. You can know the percentage of, say, red-haired people in your country, but what for? The only thing where that could be needed is to fight e.g. some Dark Ages prejudices against red-haired people, and this is expected to be a marginal issue, not some all-encompassing national program.

The same goes for religion. In Europe, religion is inherently private endeavour.
Maybe I misunderstood you, but http://www.cypherpunks.ru/gost/enVKO.html VKO 34.10-2001 is ECDH analogue. It uses two 256 or 512-bit elliptic curves keypairs for deriving common shared 256-bit key. It is Diffie-Hellman, like curve25519, with at least 128-bit security margin.

Your right to do as you please with your property ends where my property, and interference with my enjoyment of it, begins.

Or do you also think that if you buy some property straddling a river, you can dump waste into it and say "my property, nobody can tell me what to do with it" while making everyone downriver pay for the cleanup of what you did? Because that's the ultimate moral grounding of laws restricting property -- you don't own an isolated island in the middle of nowhere, you own property that's adjacent to and can affect other pieces of property owned by other people who also have rights.
