When did you try the IPSec/IKEv2 in pfsense? Prior to, I think, 2.4 you had to go into the registry and do some hack to get around certificate limitations. It's no longer necessary and setup was a breeze for me (and the registry hack worked for me as well). I loosely followed: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/IKEv2_with_EAP-MSCHAPv2
Story time?
That was actually the genesis around the Raspberry Pi. Eben Upton was really frustrated with the state of CS education in the UK(from what I recall it was mix of Excel and "computer skills").

The RPi was intended to be low cost computer that kids could hack on similar to what happened with the C64 back in the day.
Remote Work: How to Assess Developer Productivity

One, salary is not total compensation. Two, if an H1B can job hop, you have to include a nice carrot along with the sponsorship to keep them around (vesting RSU, vesting profit share %, tiered bonuses etc). Let the free market work.
Google's Cloud Print service (used on Chromebooks at least) has to constantly keep your printer in communication with the internet. To print to a printer on your LAN from a Chromebook, it goes out through the internet to Google's servers then back down to the printer. (And often times it stops working, so you can't even print to the thing 2 feet away).

Basically true.

And because SafeStack CPI is a much better solution, and our focus.

Work going into 2.4 to basically quash XSS / CARF.

I recall differently, but we were more focused on fixing pfSense and the four releases in that month.

2.3 got pkgng, and yes, we sign packages.

I finally had to take these parts over from the previous admin.

Which Airline Has the Most Loyal Flyers?
That's totally fair. Thanks for explaining. I'm on the opposite side of that, but I can see where you're coming from. I could see my daughter or some other young girl benefitting from this type of instruction so I wouldn't hesitate to volunteer with them again. I also see no shortage of opportunities for my son to learn about coding, so I don't think it's a detriment to him. I'd much rather send them to the same place, but if it's 95% male, then I can understand why a girl would rather have a different environment to start out in.
How difficult is is?
Visual editors work great when the thing will always look the way you've designed it. But that's not how the web works. Especially now that mobile web browsing is a common thing, your site will be viewed on all sorts of devices with different resolutions / aspect ratios / etc.

When you add that factor in it shouldn't be hard to see why a visual editor is not sufficient. Visual editors are just not a great way to specify the type of logic that decides how your interface will look and behave at radically different sizes and shapes.
Thank you. I really appreciate your comments about the Iliad translations.

> If you look at the Finnish or Nordic welfare model in general, most of the income transfers go to to middle class who also pays for them.

Right, but I don't see the difference to basic income in that regard. How do you avoid a politician going "let's cut basic income and lower taxes" benefiting the majority of people that are employed?
“Of all the great national heroes and statesmen of history, Lincoln is the only real giant. Alexander, Frederick the Great, Caesar, Napoleon, Gladstone and even Washington stand in greatness of character, in depth of feeling and in a certain moral power far behind Lincoln. Lincoln was a man of whom a nation has a right to be proud; he was a Christ in miniature, a saint of humanity, whose name will live thousands of years in the legends of future generations. We are still too near to his greatness, and so can hardly appreciate his divine power; but after a few centuries more our posterity will find him considerably bigger than we do. His genius is still too strong and too powerful for the common understanding, just as the sun is too hot when its light beams directly on us.

> huge supply of people overseas wanting those jobs so that they can get their foot into the US and then find something better

That's not really a good justification of claiming that the US Supply is more than what the current market holds. With that same arguement, a business could claim: Banana processing in Costa Rica costs $0.5/hr, so that means that we should have that as a ceiling in the US for the same job. It's apples and oranges.

There is a huge amount of people that would like to emigrate for financial improvement. But, at the end of the day they live there you live here. Want to take advantage of the supply that you're referring to, open up a location there. (And find out why they don't already have that organization there)
Huh. The "vim way" goal posts have moved even further. Used to be "no-op your arrow keys and use hjkl", now it's "noop your hjkl keys".

Something I, as a dedicated VIM user, will never do. 'hjkl' work fine, and are a good addition to 'we{}$0' and so forth. I can't personally find the value of hobbling myself for the sake of meeting someone else's definition of the ideal user.

I was recently talking with my girlfriend about print media, and she brought up a point I have been unable to shake from my head: because we get all of our information digitally, we don't value it as much as a physical medium that we pay for. Instead, there is just so much free information at the click of a button (and even paywall stuff can be bypassed if you put in the extra 5 seconds), that consuming information comes to feel like a chore.

It reminds me of the famous scene in Mark Twain's "Tom Sawyer", when Tom convinces a group of kids to paint the very fence he was contracted to paint. Instead of offering money for their services, he pitched the activity as a fun privilege to enjoy.

There's a lot of good stuff on Medium. There's also a lot of crap. And there is no way to seamlessly progress from article to article without encountering any crap at all.

Are the comments going to be informative, or an argumentative flame war? Roll the dice and see how much time of your life was well-spent or wasted.

I got the daily newsletter from Medium for years. Read it fairly often. Then I just got sick of it and unsubscribed. With the exception of links from HN, I haven't gone back since.

> could have adopted jails instead of creating i've lost count of how many "container" technologies

The "many technologies" are mostly user-level wrappers though. What actually happened in the kernel: they've added unshare(2) early on, but it only isolated filesystem mounts at first. Later they started gradually adding more things for it isolate: network, PID, IPC and users. The "users" part arrived really late and is kinda bad… that's why for a very long time you weren't supposed to give people root in a docker container, and I think it's still not recommended. That's quite hilarious, considering that jails' main purpose literally was "containing root", and it fucking worked great since the early 2000s.

> as traffic lights and life-support systems fail.

Has anyone on life support ever died from the power going out ? I've worked at a hospital and the life support machines have internal battery backups, they're plugged into a separate outlet that is (at least) got an instant-on backup generator and possibly another battery backup. Plus, the ventilators I saw have rubber balloons on them that can be manually squeezed to breathe the patient if the machine dies. I also thought ventilated patients are also staffed by critical care nurses that have at most 2 patients per nurse. I've never heard of a ventilated patient set off in a room alone without adequate supervision.

Not saying there's no risk elsewhere in a city from power loss, but I thought hospitals had this situation covered.
> Green party in Finland made 560 euro basic income proposal few years ago that was cost neutral.

Sure. But the ongoing experiment is not anywhere near cost-neutral. It's literally giving free money to all participants, while raising no extra revenue from any source. Even people in favor of the basic income agree that implementing this model country-wide would be totally impossible (the 5% of GDP extra deficit from the article seems like a fair estimate).

So criticizing this experiment seems totally reasonable, no matter what ulterior motives the labor unions might have. The experiment is just not going to be actionable no matter what the outcome, everyone knows it's useless, but it was implemented anyway since it was an item from the coalition agreement that could be ticked off easily.
Well yes, he did break the law of course there is no denying that. But in the spirit of what he did he wasn't malicious in that he kicked off a DDoS with these printers or anything more than that, it was of course illegal but at least those people now know.

I think it basically comes down to practicality. If you don't adjust pay for location in a remote company, you either pay the market rate for the most expensive market or you price yourself out of that market. If you pay the rates of the most expensive market everywhere, you are essentially leaving money on the table, since your competitors can potentially hire two people in Nashville, TN for every 1 person you hire (though you obviously get your pick of the litter by paying above-market rates) - or they can afford a bigger advertising buy, or any of the other competitive advantages you get by saving money. Not only that, but if you're not a remote-only company and are actually based in one of the expensive locations, you're basically offering your in-person staff a huge bonus if they leave and become remote.

Honestly, anything other than paying market salaries +/- some relatively small error term is probably not sustainable in the long run.
I can try, but I'm not just going to guess what your misunderstanding is. What specifically would you like me to expand upon?
That's true, but you can easily reach a six figure salary in software or IT, and you'll essentially have been in the workforce for twice as long as the doctor if you retire at 65.

How much you make really depends on your specialty as well. Cosmetic surgeons, anesthesiologists and radiologists make a lot more money than general practitioners. Pediatric anything does not make much money.

Cosmetic surgeons make an absolute boatload of money though. Like, an absurd amount. A guy I play pickup basketball with went from being a pediatric surgeon to a cosmetic surgeon, and he said it almost feels criminal how much more money he makes now.

The principle battle with printers as I see it is getting them to accept a third party print cartridge.
Completely agree. It resonated with my experience as well.

Over my high school years I was incredibly frustrated by the things I was taught in ICT GCSE and ICT A Level (at the time there was no computing GCSE/A level offered by my high school). And even now, I'm studying for a BSc in Computer Science and I'm surrounded by people who probably can't write a hello world application without getting help from a TA.

I find the state of things really ridiculous and I wonder whether all UK universities are like this. What frustrates me the most is when my professors are seemingly putting a cap on my grades. It feels like they are pushing everyone who is lagging behind up (past the 40% pass mark) and everyone who's doing exceptionally well down (towards the 70% mark). I'm guessing that it makes sense to retain as many students as they can and at the same time ensure that the course isn't too easy, but it seems incredibly unfair.

Also, what is up with the grading system? A "first" is 70%+, and as soon as you achieve that as an average you're indistinguishable from anybody else.
No, but if they are in certain stages of applying for a green card, their application resets.

I don't know if it's properly historically true but I've seen several explanations claim it's intended as a statement of support for the Revolutionary war, something along the lines of the "just" outcome making the means ("war/rebellion") acceptable.

They'll still sell the Lumia 735. A select few retail stores even carry them in stock. But the phone is from 2014, and they don't officially support Windows 10 Mobile at all.

Verizon takes a "do so at your own risk" approach to Windows 10, because Microsoft doesn't permit carriers to hold back updates for Windows 10, and Verizon wants carrier approval for all software. So they don't have any Windows 10 phones, and the Lumia 735 is officially only supported as a Windows Phone 8.1 device. But the 929 and 735 both run great once upgraded to 10.

It's been a big sticking point for me that Microsoft's current strategy is to target enterprise, like with the HP Elite x3, but they don't have Verizon, the primary business carrier, on board.

Loan forgiveness isn't that great of a deal, because the IRS treats it as taxable income. So if you are making $200k a year, and you get a $200k loan forgiven, you will have a massive tax burden.

Plus, loan forgiveness is only after ten years of payments. Doctors will probably not have much money remaining on their loans, unless they spent ten years working for Doctors without Borders or something similar. If you pay back your student loans at the standard rate you will have repaid them after 10 years.
That's kind of interesting. Is there a branch of the humanities that tries to predict which cultural icons will become mythologized over time? I fear 500 years from know people will start wars over ancient Chuck Norris memes.
Nonsense. The power of an alternative employment offer is the leverage its gives you against your current salary. As a green card holder, my employer has twice matched competing offers resulting in significant raises.

If I was still on an H-1B, I would never have been able to negotiate that way because of the risk that they fire me and I get deported.

Maybe some get away with that cliché behaviour, but in my experience this is just an inappropriate way to deal with their own weaknesses, leading to embarrassing situations (for them) as soon as they get to work with people more experienced than they are.
