In the specific case of GCM: you can trivially recover the authentication key, and you can (in realistic circumstances) decrypt the messages for which the once was repeated. That, in turn, means you can recover the keystream for that nonce, key pair, meaning if the peer accepts new messages with the repeated nonce (realistic), you can forge arbitrary messages of the same length of shorter than the longest ciphertext for which the nonce repeated.

That would be what I meant by "removing", though you also have to make sure they don't emergently develop (which I'm not sure is possible), because if it develops them against our best efforts, it likely will (correctly) view us as threats to its personhood.

Which was my point: the model of security is reliant on things we're not sure we can even do, but are likely to make the AI view us as a threat, raising our existential risk. So I view it as security theater that actually makes us less secure.

"the private plan without subsidies... was $250"

But that plan was only available to healthy people without any pre-existing conditions.

Now, the $780 version of that plan is available to everyone.

You are a healthy person who could get healthcare before and still can for roughly the same price. The ACA wasn't meant to change things much for you: it was meant to increase coverage. Now people who are older or who have a chronic condition or a bad family history can get the same health insurance as you. That's what your tax dollars are paying-for.

I'm not trying to justify insurance company profits. I think it's mostly a load of crap. But the costs of a grocery store are pretty much fixed and easy to predict. The costs for an insurance company are far more complex, because they change with the number and scope of claims.

I don't think you can deny there are cost risks for insurance companies that a lot of other markets don't have. However, to back you up a bit, their profits are extremely good which probably means they are largely overstating the risk in order to gouge their customers.
Pretty mundane and naive observations, which is not surprising since it looks like he tried a VR headset for the first time a month ago.
Easy fix is to require all insurers to provide ACA plans. Also cross state plans sound nice in theory but then you need cross state normalization of insurance regulators. That may only happen at a Fdderal level and will be an interesting constitutional issue. Same with Medicare and Medicaid.

Metrowerks, like Borland, were a product of their time and suffered badly when those times changed.

Both made fantastic third-party compiler suites and both saw a tremendous amount of success because of that. Then the operating system vendors started to re-focus around building a first-class compiler environment for their developer base and it got very hard to compete.

Borland got ground down by Microsoft Visual Studio while Visual Basic killed any hope of Delphi taking over. Metroerks slid largely because of Apple's Xcode.

It's a shame that Borland and Metrowerks tanked like that, they did add their own flavor to the development world, but it's also a good thing. Back in the 1990s being a developer meant forking out hundreds if not thousands of dollars for good tools. The barrier to entry was awfully steep. Since that made app developers a rare breed, finding developer support was a lot harder.

Today anyone with a computer has access to top-quality tools without having to spend a dime more, and they're also able to access a knowledgable developer community that's easily engaged to help solve problems, provide advice, and recommend strategies.

When using Metrowerks you were on your own. If the book you had didn't solve the problem you could try your luck on USENET or a mailing list, but that would only work with the most trivial of problems.
The real "Whatsapp Backdoor" is that, by default, the app stores a backup of all your messages on "teh cloud". On android, that's google.

So google can play "eve", and every run of the mill script kiddie that can get your google credentials may "restore" your messages. How convenient.

And that's the default settings. So, even if you turn it off, "mallory" can steal the credentials of your contact and snoop into your conversation that way.
> Fork-and-exec isn't complicated by threads. Only fork-and-keep-executing is.

Another issue is that fork-and-exec doesn't work well with languages with complicated runtimes, e.g. multithreaded garbage collection. It forces you to use a lower level language (such as C) to write all the code between fork and exec. An API based on process handles with a separate "start" call to convert a not-yet-started handle into a running process wouldn't have that deficiency.

Another issue is that it is very hard to implement robust error handling without race conditions in the fork-exec model. What if the child process encounters an error between the fork and the exec? How does it notify the parent process of exactly what error it got (e.g. "setsid failed"?) You need some sort of IPC mechanism between the child and the parent. And such an IPC mechanism is prone to race conditions. By contrast, the process handle-based API I suggested doesn't have this problem since it doesn't introduce more concurrency into the system than is absolutely necessary.

> UNIX doesn't have a naming convention using file extensions.

Yes it does. The average Unix system is full of file extensions like .c, .h, .so, .html, etc. Even in Unix V1 file extensions were used as a convention - http://minnie.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=V1

> Some of your points are valid opinions that are shared by others, but I don't know how much they have to do with the UNIX philosophy.

Is there a clear definition of what the "UNIX philosophy" is? Is any criticism of Unix systems as actually implemented a valid criticism of the "Unix philosophy"? Or do you want to define the "Unix philosophy" so vaguely as to put it beyond any possibility of criticism?
It wasn't spite. Google introduced a large new feature as Android-only (turn-by-turn directions) and refused to put it on iOS. So this wasn't just a fear that Google would use its position to screw over Apple, Google was actually actively doing that.

GWB most certainly did not up the age of coverage to 25.

Prior to the ACA, nearly every employer-based coverage plan stopped dependent coverage at 19-years old or upon college graduation. Those that allowed older children would refuse dependent coverage if the children's employer offered health care, which meant that if you got a entry-level job out of high school at a company that offered insurance at any price, you couldn't use your parents' insurance.

After the ACA, every plan, employer-sponsored or exchange-based, must offer dependent care up until 26-years of age.

2.5 million <25-year olds gained health insurance in the first year after the expansion, which was before the mandate was in place.

The ACA gets credit for the expansion since it caused the expansion.
I can say that for C and C++, the compilation is very often parallelized at the translation unit (file) level, by starting multiple instances of the compiler either locally or over a network with something like distcc.
This is simple and effective enough that there wouldn't be much gain in parallelizing the compilers: all the cores are already busy most of the time.

> Rose's team tried to eliminate any other explanations for this link — for example, that children outdoors were engaged in more physical activity and that this was having the beneficial effect. But time engaged in indoor sports had no such protective association; and time outdoors did, whether children had played sports, attended picnics or simply read on the beach. And children who spent more time outside were not necessarily spending less time with books, screens and close work. “We had these children who were doing both activities at very high levels and they didn't become myopic,” says Rose. Close work might still have some effect, but what seemed to matter most was the eye's exposure to bright light.

The evidence is far from overwhelming, but the data is a lot more useful than your layman intuition...
What a peculiar thing to say.
> Hmm. I've heard many small companies could not afford to provide health insurance for their employees after ACA passed ( I don't know the details of exactly the causal chain there ). So they stop providing it and pushed people to use ACA which had ridiculous price hikes and also in some states companies withdrawing from the exchanges.

This may have impacted some companies, but none of the ACA small-business provisions were phased in until your company has more than 50 full-time employees. If your startup gets to a point where they have 50 employees, you should probably spend the money to get them health care.

tptacek,

Over the years interacting with you here on HN, I think this basically sums up the worldview that puts you and I at odds:

> Open vs. closed-source software is a concern orthogonal to verifiability.

Is there a place where you have written at length, defending this assertion?

I am open to it. But it does not resonate with my understanding, nor my (substantial, I think) experience in deployments of open- and closed-source software with specific respect to verifiability.

Above Avalon: The Battle Lines in Tech Are Being Redrawn
On engineering teams you don't want constant negotiation. The psychological chess that people play when they negotiate salary doesn't yield a better product. What you want is people collaborating dispassionately to always choose the best possible option --- the most physically effective, the most beautiful, the most platonically ideal (whatever that means), etc. Truth isn't negotiated. Likewise for the example below, programming languages. A language should be chosen based on technical factors. Defending your opinion should mean presenting a compelling (true) argument, not somehow coercing your teammates to your view.

I'm personally extremely conflict averse, in that I hate senseless fighting where winning depends mostly on asserting yourself. I'm cool with competition of ideas where the best ideas win, and I optimistically suspect most of these "conflict-averse" women would be too.

I think you should focus more on giving concrete examples instead of making snide comments.

And, I'm not going to watch an eighty minute video in order to find out what you are talking about. Specific examples would be appreciated.

I agree that tagging globals as const can help the optimizer. If that is what you were talking about then I have no disagreement. However I have seen many people who expect speed wins when they tag member functions as const, or local variables as const. In those cases it is rare for 'const' to improve code-gen.

Lawyer is something you plan to do, programmer is something you fall into?

I became a programmer because I was doing this thing for fun and all of a sudden someone started throwing money in my direction. I later became a farmer (another male dominated profession) under the same conditions. In fact, every job I have ever had in my life was a result of doing something for fun resulting in someone wanting to pay me to continue to do it. But if I start doing legal-related things for fun, I'm never going to turn that into a job as a lawyer.

What if males are more apt to do something that allows them to fall into jobs? If the programming profession were regulated like the legal profession, you may not get any more females wanting to be programmers, but you would eliminate all the males who simply fell into the position. A thought.

How do you start these conversations with the team, especially as far as wanting to reach more underrepresented groups?

When our company was very small it felt reasonable to say "We need to hire more women and underrepresented minorities", but after the team grows a bit I worry people might view that as "affirmative action" of some sort in a negative way - and I don't think I know how to handle that conversation.

Not to mention how this might interact with US employment laws around discrimination - I think I'm misguided in worrying about this because so many tech companies (like Lever) are vocal about their desire to hire more people from these groups, but it does feel a bit like there are landmines when discussing this topic.

I feel like I don't know what kind of language / goals I should be using. I DO feel like there's a distinction between good diversity efforts and accidentally shutting out some over-represented groups that don't deserve it - but I don't really know where that line is drawn.

The top comment on /r/rust is worth reading: https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/5nu1w7/rust_and_the_l...
Please don't assume my comment implies unvarnished support for the ACA. Except for the somewhat cynical last line, I tried to keep it fairly factual.

If you do want my personal opinion, I'll give it here:

1. From an economic standpoint, single-payer healthcare fundamentally makes sense. Put everyone in a single pool to reduce risk, drive efficiency, and maximize negotiating power.

2. From a free market standpoint, the current model of tying healthcare coverage to your employer hurts both employers and employees. As an employer, why am I responsible for paying this "benefit"? If too many of my employees get horribly ill, my premiums go up to the point that I can't provide a competitive benefit; my costs increase, my employees' contribution increases, and my ability to recruit talent suffers. As an employee, why must I forego an entrepreneurial opportunity because I can no longer afford healthcare for my children without an employer footing the majority of the bill?

3. From an efficiency standpoint, the current model wastes tremendous medical resources (bureaucracy, physician time, lack of cost transparency, treatment limits, etc.). I have friends in the medical industry (doctors, executives, med tech providers), all of whom dream of a single-payer system.

4. From a constitutional standpoint, I believe healthcare falls under "promote the general welfare" and "secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity." A national, taxpayer-funded health program is no different than any number of other government-funded programs that free us to maximize our potential as citizens. And yes, we pay taxes to fund those services whether we use them or not.

So yes, I'm a believer in a single-payer model. Yes, I believe the ACA is essentially a handout to insurance companies. And yes, I was very disappointed when Obama took single payer "off the table."

However, I also think it's better than pre-ACA, despite its flaws. And at this point, it's certainly better than the chaos that will arise from simply abandoning it. Understanding its compromises, I can't really envision a "replacement ACA" that will pass a Republican congress that can be better.

If Congress delivers a better ACA, I'll happily embrace it. Heck, I'd even give credit to the Republicans if they just tweaked the ACA, renamed it "Winningest Solid Gold Trumpcare" and fully backed the result to make it successful. But I see no positive outcome if they go down the "repeal and delay" path.
