Other than the fact that corporate HR "investigated" the literal screenshots of Susan being sexually propositioned by her supervisor the day she joined the company and determined there was nothing wrong, right? I sure fucking hope that skews form the mean when it comes to harassment.

Your words are chosen so carefully. "Anecdotal...looked credible..." The same words I'm sure HR had in their oops-we-got-caught presentation for Travis.

First, like in Prisoner's dilemma, if some sovereigns take drastic action, they pay the price but don't achieve the goal anyway unless almost all others are cooperating.

Second, the interests are not aligned - those who'd need to take the largest investment are those who'd suffer the least from consequences; and those who need the goal the most can't change that much.

>We have at-rest encryption on our roadmap

i'm not sure whether you understood the term "at-rest", all that would imply is that the data disk (or perhaps the database) is fully encrypted, but the server holds the decryption key at runtime. that would add no security because anyone who hacked into the application server will still be able to dump + decrypt all the notes, all they have to do is also dump the key from the running server. what you need is end-to-end encryption, so the server only receives the encrypted notes from the client.

I'd argue this is their own fault for failing to establish a business model and expectation of payment. Once you give things away for free for a long period of time and then begin to charge later the blowback is severe. Howerver, if you set expectations upfront, people are less likely to revolt. Note, I am not one of these people because I appreciate and respect paying companies for products that I use and love. I think this stems from my founder's mentality more than anything though.

Ted Talk Review Ben Goldacre: Battling Bad Science
So, I'm a nonexpert, not going to source this, and am repeating hearsay. Salt this comment to taste, but:

While I won't dispute that the moment he refused to deplane, he violated the law (you're required to follow the instructions of flight crew), the request that he be removed was also a violation of UA policy from what I've seen.

Here's some things that I've read

- He had previously volunteered to deboard, until he learned that it would be such a long delay

- This was not a case of overbooking, the 4 people added to the flight were United Employees, not overbooked passengers.

- UA policy states that airline employees will be the first people bumped from a flight in the case that it is overbooked

- (According to someone on reddit, so extra salt:) All of the overbooking regulations have to do with seat assignments. You shouldn't get bumped once you're assigned a seat, much less seated, and doing so may be a breach of regulations by United.

If that's the case, then the crew were absolutely breaching UA policy when he was removed, and they may have been breaching federal regulations when they asked him to deplane. To be clear, that's no excuse for refusing to deplane (even if he knew he was in the right), but it's not as simple as "he was disruptive" if the request for him to leave was illegal.

For an example of how this system switchover looks like, First Bank in the United States just did a whole-system switchover in March, at least for their business customers. They handle my wife's business' banking, which means I do all the paperwork, and it definitely was a pain. Basically it was like signing up for a whole new bank account. They copied over something like only the last 6 months of transactions and some payroll info, but things like automatic bill payments and everything else (even basic online login) had to be set up again.

"Simple" was a poor choice of words as it doesn't capture what I mean.

I meant "fewest possible abstractions over the underlying hardware".

BF and Lisp are both much simpler than C, but don't fit what I was trying to get at, as they present a totally different abstraction that is actually quite different from the underlying hardware.

(Actually, so is C, since assembly language is itself an abstraction and processors work much differently than they did in the 70s and 80s... but as a programmer, and not a hardware engineer, I consider asm to be the baseline, zero-abstraction level ;) )
I think I'd like to do more with my machine as it's getting bigger and faster, not the same things from 10 years ago that now hog all of my excess.

Autocomplete is a big productivity boost too: VS Code will suggest methods on the object, then tell you exactly what arguments it takes and what types they all are.

Premuim? Not at all. Compare AM4 motherboards with Socket 2011v3, and you will see a huge price difference. There are plenty of decent AM4 boards to be had around $100. The cheapest 2011v3 board on newegg.com is $140. Higher end 2011v3 boards approach $600.

Out of stock? A quick glance at newegg doesn't show any out of stock. Where are you looking?

Well fair enough.

I don't consider myself better then my team when taken as a whole, however I am the lead for a reason and I'm much closer aligned on how to maximise what we're delivering to the client as I have to actually deal with them. The reasons why I sometimes have to pick a worse solution to a problem are obvious to me but not always to my team, but that's the way it goes and I'm the boss.

An example? Once we had a requirement to have a user store for some group of apps and we came up with a really nice ldap solution, and two members of the team were really invested in the solution and the debates were endless on some technical details of the implementation. It was beautiful, as these things go.

Then I find out that there's an existing AD environment we can just hook up to instead of reimplementing functionality that already exists so I shitcan the project.

Does that make me arrogant or good at my job? My job is to help my clients, spending a few months implementing something that already exists just because some of my tech staff prefer our solution is not helping my client, yet these two members refused to implement the Code to interface the existing environment.

Disagreements happen, but refusing to do work you disagree with when you're a contracted professional is unacceptable.

As for my tech credentials, yeah I did a bit of ia32 back in the days where one might want to use 16 bit registers to avoid nulls if you get what I mean, wink wink, but never for profit. C? Yes, I was a c developer and I maintained boost on Solaris for a few years while maintaining as much ingnorance of c++ as possible and not really understanding any of it (mostly a packaging gig).

Today, we are further up the stack but I don't think it has much relevance.

I don't make unpopular decisions because I don't understand what the consequences are which seems to be your take; I just pick the battles we should be fighting for our clients and my comment was that I have little time for people who can't put the client ahead of what they want to work on.

You are hired for your technical ability but that's to further the goals of your client. You aren't working on your side project and refusing to work on things, even those we all don't want to be doing but which further our clients goals is unprofessional and I have no problem saying goodbye to those who do.

Its good to be strongly opinionated. Discussion is great. Multiple solutions and experimenting are good. Your design doesn't happen for some reason (and like above, it might not be because it's not the best solution) that doesn't mean you don't look like a spoiled child refusing to do what you're getting £1000/day to do, and unfortunately this attitude is more prevalent than you'd think.

To me, the value is at design/write time, not in converting old code. Old code that already works correctly will not be made more correct with TS unless you have branches of code that haven't been tested (by you during development, in tests or by your users). Working TS just lets me catch type mismatches while I'm writing instead of after the whole build process has run and I've reloaded the browser.
It does seem pretty entrenched at the very least. This exchange was pretty damn eye-opening:

> Most people never really stopped to think about the implications

You seem to suggest that Uber's toxic culture gave them a business advantage. Like, riders got some benefit that a conscientious person ought to have guessed was derived from the suffering of others.

I think what really happened is that Uber successfully assailed a bunch of stodgy monopolies just by taking a modern approach to dispatching. Then others saw the opportunity and there was a goldrush. Today Uber and everyone else are squeezing the drivers (same is true for all the "Uber of X" sharing economy variants). But the crappy backoffice culture surely didn't make it more convenient or cheap to get a ride.
To be fair, you don't actually need to know Docker beyond being able to follow a tutorial.
> So, for example, you know if at offset 0xDEADBEEF there is are 8 bytes which are holding a number that you want to use, you can access that chunk of memory and use it however you want. And you can interpret it how it is appropriate for your use case, for example reading it into a string, or an int.

Except these days with strict aliasing that's not true. If you access memory through a pointer of the wrong type, you've probably committed the crime of undefined behavior, for which the compiler might punish you by breaking your code - but probably won't, leaving the bug to be triggered in the future by some random code change or compiler upgrade that creates an optimization opportunity.

Admittedly there are ways to avoid undefined behavior, but still. C gives the compiler a lot of leeway to mess around with your code.

How do you know how many CI minutes you have used?
Good points. Hadn't heard half of them.

As for the 4 employees - there is staff travel for personal reasons (ID travel, interline discount, heavily discounted, stand-by), where you have lower priority than paying pax. There is booked staff travel, where you have intermediate priority. But then there is travel for operational reasons (positioning), where you have higher priority, because if you don't get there, a whole planeload of pax (and more, due to knock-on effects) won't fly. So, the number of available seats was reduced, and insofar it was overbooking.

And certainly all this should have been sorted out before boarding, no doubt, and normally is. (Apparently only 6 in 100,000 pax or so are IDB, by the way.)

But imagine a seatbelt turns out to be broken, or the wind is so strong that they have to load more fuel and reduce weight, or whatever. Then there's a seat less, for operational reasons, and someone has to leave, even if they had boarded already.
It's completely honest. When I tried to get an Elasticsearch license (when it was cheaper) sales refused to respond to my emails for a bit. Bugging someone on irc I finally got someone to respond and got a nice trial license but they /REFUSED/ to take my money.

I would have dropped the money in their pocket if they would have responded. But I wasn't asking for a license for a company but for myself... so they got stupid
It does go in all directions, as I've hopefully made apparent in my above post.

But, just because that blanket label is overapplied doesn't mean that there isn't a ton of ill-informed bandwagon outrage against Uber, nor that the opposing pejorative SJW labeling of said outrage against Uber is ill-informed bandwagon outrage either, ad infinitum.

There's tons of terrible reacting to both real and contrived issues, recursive through reacting to those reactions. At some point, the reactions cause more issues than the initial issues.
I'm arguing semantics because I believe the semantics matter.

I feel very strongly that decentralized computation and software freedom are powerful forces for good. Conflating hosting and software plays to an agenda of curtailing individuals' and businesses' ability to self-host and to have freedom. I think this agenda is driven by hosting providers' profit motive primarly, but it plays into agendas of unrelated parties who seek to curtail freedom for their own ends.

The creation and maintenance of software is a service-- it always has been. Creating and maintaining software has never been a "product" because it doesn't suffer from scarcity. The best world I can envision is one where the underlying infrastructure, authorship, maintenance, and administration are all able to be decoupled based on need.
