Just some input from me... I am somewhat in your position, though I chose to keep my job. I've been trying to get my startup going for a year now. I actually don't have any customers, but I know that I've got a few websites, with tons of visitors, where I plan to mention my products and get them going through there. Me and my fiancee are in quite a bit of debt and working our day jobs and certainly have our dream businesses that we're both working on while working full time. She's as understanding of me as I am of her.

In other words, for me, I began my journey of understanding in 2015, founded the startup in late 2016, and it has taken me a while to build some products, and she's been very patient. This is not to say I'm at a race against time with her, but I've been telling her about it, excited about it, and there's only so much excitement a person can really see and not see actual results (Yes, I've built and showed her the products, but beta testing -- not that I'm finding crazy amounts of bugs, but just things that need to be fixed) ... and I pretty much am just about to enter in my more public beta testing phases right now. As for her, she has had too many ideas for startups and just one has materialized into anything, and while she came up with the idea, I am the one who pushed her to keep going with, even investing a bit of money that we both don't really have into a few products we needed.

I have kept my job and plan to keep it even while running my startup, because I love it, and it is a steady paycheck. So why not just earn both revenues?

It is certainly your decision, but first and foremost: you may want to discuss it with your wife. Her decision will matter more than anyone who posts here. I assure you. Do the right thing and talk to your wife first.

Now that you've done that, depending on what you discussed. There are several outcomes:

1) Keep your job. Keep working. Deal with the bullshit. Get those deadlines met. Have a steady paycheck. Take your time getting this startup going. Eventually, once you start seeing some revenue for your business, tell your boss, well, for good references, just say you've got other things going on that you want focus on right now, give your 2 weeks, wrap up, and be done with it.

2) Risk it. Quit your job in a professional manner. And focus solely on that startup.

2a) Your startup is going to be successful and you will be able to generate enough revenue that your wife and you are going to be happy to send a little extra towards the mortgage every month and also have some leftover for at least a night or two out a week. Please note: Depending on your product, how useful it is, the pricing, how well you market it, you could do well, but it is probably not going to be an overnight sensation, and will require you to focus on your business (finally).

2b) Your startup is not going to be as successful and you will either have to: ask for your job back or find a new one.

No matter what, you know this startup is going to happen. So let it happen. The two choices are simply a question of: how fast is it going to happen? Of course, that choice is yours.
Thanks, we've updated the submission title to indicate that.
That is a funny domain. Why it exists?
Was hopping to get HTTP2 server push on 1.12 since H20, Caddy and even Apache already support it.
(Ansible lead here) As I responded to a similar comment on Twitter the other day, part of the issue is our volume. When I looked, we had merged 395 PRs in the last month (via github pulse), which is ~33/day, assuming we work every day (which some of us do). That also includes a large period of time in which we were in a feature freeze for 2.3, meaning we weren't merging things in for a bit of the time. That's still about 3 prs per day per team member working on the code on top of everything else we do. This does not take into account the triaging of new issues, dealing with existing open issues, the mailing list, IRC questions, running public meetings... We've grown the team quite a bit (and are continuing to do so), but you can only do so much so fast.

We have recently enhanced ansibot to automerge PRs much more quickly without a core team member needing to be in the loop (the community is responsible for getting things automerged), so this will hopefully help even more so with getting PRs merged.

As for your PR, I'm a little confused as it says it was submitted on Feb 28th? Was that moved over from one of the modules repos? If so, I couldn't find any references to `iam_managed_policy` in either the -core or -extras repos.
The story goes: Islamic tribes began conquering the Persian empire. As they went, the population was given two options:

1. Convert.

2. Die.

3. (Option which wasn't provided) Run away.

FWIW, if you want more info about why your parent commenter seeks a "comeback" is likely related to how I call Zorastrian ideas "infectious" in another of my posts on this thread. Check it out. Let me know what you think.
> driving is usually not an option in the US

If you mean by distance, sure, but you can drive anywhere in the US, and there are a lot of people that do choose to drive semi-long distances (10-12 hours) over flying when fuel is cheap because they enjoy driving. It's less of an option when the distance is something like 30-40 hours, i.e. from LA to NYC.
Don't worry. People on slashdot complain about HN mods.
How do you feel about shell pipelines? Most shell pipelines don't name the things they operate on. Point-free style feels the same way: you string functions together and don't name the input/output.

Usually when offices offer those perks it is to keep people at work and blur the line between work and home. It's not cynical to point that out. By offering really expensive perks they are filtering for people who value those perks over salary (because there really is no free lunch)
It works if you're someone like Amazon that can pay based on sales generated, but that's actually somewhat unusual. A lot of advertisers are hoping to also push their brand, and there fraud is the big problem. A lot of the JS served is just validating that the ads displayed properly, or was seen by the correct target audience.
If you work from home there is no reason your geographic location should impact pay.
Irrespective of how small or isolated the task, you have to train them to do it. And more often than not with a junior hire, you have to re-do their work anyways, or baby-sit them the entire time while you tell them what to write.

Not to mention, that if it's something they can be trained in once and monkey-repeat ad-infinitum, then there is a near-100% chance that I can automate it.
IDEs are generally heavy, but Microsoft (and other IDE makers) don't make them that way just for fun. They build the IDE that they want to use.

When an IDE doesn't do something the way you want it done and you find yourself fighting it, I can totally understand not wanting to deal with it. On the other hand, if your IDE works the way you want it to, it can increase your productivity.
The guidelines ask us not to spark flamewars like this because they're at once agitating and tediously uninsightful.

Hey that's really great to hear. (that you're keen to use Kim) WTF-Forms and Marshmallow both solve problems and they do it well but it seems like us you wanted something that offered just a bit more flexibility. That's totally the idea behind pipelines in Kim. They are like tiny little computer programmes and are really capable of anything (providing it's possible in Python of course :D )

It's great you asked this question as we noticed part of the documentation was actually broken. here's a link to a pretty basic example of adding extra validation "pipes" to a pipeline

We'd be more than happy to discuss how to solve more complex requirements if there's something specific you had in mind though.

Thanks for the message!

This was a telling quote from the article:

>I broke up with my girlfriend, telling her I couldn’t see a future for us in my sad financial state.

Minimalism holds the same attachment to physical possessions that consumerism does, but it associates negatives feelings as opposed to positive ones. It's like love and hate. Hate is not the opposite of love, but the other end of the spectrum. Rather than getting a sense of self worth from having things, he's getting a sense of self worth from NOT having things.

The opposite of consumerism is a person who's happy with the stuff he has. When the opportunity arises to get something nicer, he takes advantage of it, but he doesn't actively go out and buy something new. Sure, that person may feel a twinge of jealously at people having nicer things, but he simply lets those emotions pass without acting on them. Acceptance and detachment.

Graphic Drivers. The desktop GPU situation looks like a wonderland compared to the mess that is mobile graphic acceleration.
American Express Plum card used to have one of the best bonuses for quick repayment. It originally was 2% with no cap, if you paid it within 10 days. Or you could pay your minimum and defer the payment a month with no penalty. I think it is 1.5% now, which is still pretty good considering there's no cap.

I got it when I was doing a lot of affiliate marketing (no rebills, I swear), which is sort of like being a founder, and spending $xx,xxx a month on traffic. Getting 2% of that back was actually pretty sweet, considering my margins were 15-20% in general.
Certs show the candidate is in the upper 90% of the group. Its no different than fizzbuzz. Its very much like stack ranking and tossing out the bottom 10%, those being the cert-less.

My day job maybe 15, 20 years ago was basically Cisco CCNP Routing test. It was kinda useful to study and pass Cisco Switching test because switching is a different world of networking. Probably I was in the top 10% of router ops, but I was only in the top 90% of switch ops. For many jobs thats perfectly OK.

Something very few people like to talk about is self inflation of company requirements. Top 90th percentile is frankly more than good enough for most companies. Yes lots of self important strutting about rockstars and ninjas but all they really need, often all they can get, is top 90th percentile, and it works out fine.

A cert is not a Nobel prize or Congressional Medal of Honor. Its not even a PHD. Its kinda like graduating middle school, or having a clean-ish criminal record. Maybe the best example is its like passing a drug test for a job, having the self control to not get high for a whopping two or three days before the test is kind of a minimum display of self discipline to get a job.

i hope it's kosher to post it here but here goes: www.supercandyshop.com

why you should buy from us: we really intend to be the best value candy box out there, we currently have a break-even policy where we aim to only break even from every shipment. as long as we can find the right ratio of shipping cost to total weight of contents, we will fill em up with everything we can up until the cost reaches the price paid for the subscription(sometimes even a little past our cost). if you enjoy asian candy, give us a try you won't regret it.

what makes us interesting: the reason why we aimed to break even on the sale of each subscription is because our business model is a little different from the typical subscription box business. we do not ever aim to profit from the sale of candy/subscriptions itself, so our customers can be sure that they will always receive maximum value in every single shipment.

we believe there is more value in achieving a very satisfied customer base who enjoys every month's shipment, and that ultimately with enough scale, there will be profit.
sorry, yes, that was the most important part!

single cpu was faster than dual.

This was a xeon x56 vs an e5-26

on the e5-26 it was most pronounced, the x56 was less obvious
New York City granted Verizon a franchise agreement as this would provide a needed source of revenue to the city. See page 26. So not only did the city lose out on revenue but this also represents an opportunity cost for the city as they could have granted a fiber franchise(an obtained full revenue) from someone else.

10. FRANCHISE FEES

10.1. Payment to City: Franchisee shall pay to the City a Franchise Fee of five percent (5%) of annual Gross Revenue (the “Franchise Fee”).

What's concerning to me here is "Now the investigation is examining all his seized devices". It's possible, although perhaps slightly paranoid, that the message posting was intended to create pretext for seizure.

This may be a little far-fetched - there's likely easier ways to generate pretext - but it might be something for owners of Tor exit nodes to be aware of.

I'm not sure the general public sees ad blocking as an ethically green area. More of a grey area so many aren't comfortable doing it even if they love the experience.
"Brilliant Geek posts mysogyny on his spare time" happens enough that I took it at face value.

How could that possibly be true? The USG isn't going to limit what a company can voluntarily give to a customer.
Honestly, I have few thoughts about them.

Whenever I do think about them, one of my primary thoughts are of sympathy and strength. Not for any current standpoint (I'm sure they are mostly fine these days) but historically, (as you're likely aware) they were forced to convert over to Islam or were killed. Most Zorastrians still in and around Iran, were only Zorastrian in secret. I can't imagine how the religion survived a few thousand years in that region despite that hostile environment.

Other than that, we "Parsis" consider "Iranis" Zorastrian, just as much as we are. However, we do not consider them Parsi. Similar-ish to the Protestant/Catholic sub-cultures.
Any of those explain why force majeure would not apply?

My advice would be to make sure you have more than 1 card. There will be a fraudulent purchase at some point leading to a card re-issue. You don't want to be dead in the water for a few days while that happens!
My point was we get so much flak for doing this.

But then sometimes we're "supposed" to do it? Which is it?
Flying is the safest form of transport because of the FAA. Yes there are a ton of rules and regulations, but the vast majority exist for a very good reason and the FAA is very good at cracking down on offenders. Why? Because the consequence of failure is so high that we can't afford not to.

Get rid of the FAA and it's only a matter of time before what was illegal ends up taking down a full airliner, killing hundreds or even thousands of people and ruins flying for everyone.
I think a lot of Turkish citizens, and the Turkish government, are frustrated with the long time it has taken and now they have become ambivalent, feeling like they will never be allowed to join the EU. Its very easy to each side to blame the other, but from the Turkish perspective, there needs to be a concrete timeline for the process. Indeed for several years there are clear problems in Turkey that would block them joining EU, but those problems came up only after Turks became frustrated with the slow accession.

As for economic concerns, EU has many trade deals and many EU members would probably be quite happy to have some kind of trade deal without giving Turkey membership, and with how things are today, maybe Turks will just accept that.
For how many months, or years, have you been working from home? And, how often are you interacting in person with people?

I've found WFH to be great, but, after a while I really miss human interaction.
Point-free is generally the main style for concatenative languages.

In order to be able to read it, you have to know by heart the signature of the standard operators, and then you have to learn on the go the signature of the operators of the particular program your are studying.

It doesn't fly well if the author doesn't follow certain "usability" rules:

- name things thoughtfully and properly,

- no more than 3 arguments for your functions,

- keep the complexity of the functions as low as possible.

This is good advice in any language, but I'd say that with concatenative languages at least, deviations are likely to have more acute negative consequences on maintainability.
Self appointed experts should not be accepted by courts. That is what caused cluster fuck of bite mark non-science and fire non-science.

Being a manager of an InfoSec team I agree with this, especially the CISSP and CEH.

I've seen a few folks get a CEH and then they're off to App testing land, but the funning thing is, none of them has ever written an app, some not even a script, and they are now doing security testing on mobile apps. Basically they just push a button on an app scanner and pull a report, it's sad.

The folks that do succeed in security are the ones with curiosity, experience and drive to learn.
I know there are.

But listen, we agree on the relatedness of Slav 'rabo/robo' and Germanic 'Arbeit' (same in all Scandinavian languages), right? That relatedness very clearly suggests a very old, common Indoeuropean ancestor. Latin 'labor' really doesn't sound like an all to unikely cousin, then.

Don't the jumpseats have more legroom? I thought the ones I'd seen did, just by not being part of the ordinary aisles and being smaller (slimmer back especially). I'd take a milking stool over the regular seats if it meant not having my knees jammed most of an inch into the seat in front of me (and I'm not even that tall).
Curious - for us non-strategists could you give another sentence explaining your thought here. I don't quite get why scaling both would prevent a sale - but it appears like hard-earned insight.
Book Cover Design: A Case Study of Penguin Books
Ah, yes... the "paper tiger". While I do have certs myself, it's only because my employer has required them. Left to my own devices, I would never bother. I've been in IT for almost 20 years and I agree that the "no cert/no degree" guys usually work out.

The team lead whose feet I studied at in my first few years in IT had a high school diploma and he could run rings around the guys from Carnegie Mellon and RIT that worked with us. He was a deep diver mentally. I watched this guy drop awk, sed, bash strings a mile long, write Perl scripts without consulting a single web page. He knew iOS (Cisco), Perl, TCL/Tk, Sun, BSD, and about everything else. He could configure a HA UNIX servers and Oracle DB backends without consulting a manual. It was most impressive. He was let go because he was a team lead (middle manager). The people that replaced him--yes, people-- knew nothing in comparison.
America has also LONG allowed all sorts of toxic materials and chemicals, and, through incompetence, exposed its living beings (humans included) to such. In particular, materials which bioaccumulate have a tradition of being just ignored as unimportant until a couple decades ago (ddts, lead, asbestos, silicates in general, phthalates, etc).
There's also biochar
What an awful headline. What is this even saying?
That just shows a lack of imagination, I can think of many ways to do it securely. Also, in many cases there is no longer any "on-site" location to run things from. If your servers are in AWS, your code in GitHub/BitBucket/AWS CodeCommit, your CI pipeline is in Circle/Travis/Codeship/AWS CodePipeline... running an Ansible playbook on a service professionally managed by Red Hat is fine. It's likely to be better managed and more secure than your average never-been-patched ad-hoc on-site Jenkins box or your devops guy running the play from his MacBook.

Macbook Pro Firmware Exploit Unrepairable Vault 7
I have a macbook pro
Boot ROM Version:	MBP114.0172.B16
Model Identifier:	MacBookPro11,5

This is intel's method to find firmware exploits
https://securingtomorrow.mcafee.com/business/chipsec-support-vault-7-disclosure-scanning/

But you cant do it on the latest macbooks because the firmware is not available to download to make a whitelist.

If you look here
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201518

My boot rom version doesn't exist and there is a comment saying

"If the firmware version you see in System Information is newer than what's listed for your Mac, you don't need to apply the updates listed for that model. If you try to use a manual updater that's not designed for your Mac, or if it's not needed, the installer alerts you and the software isn't installed."

So I called apple support and they cant help me either.

Since I believe my system has been hit. Here is my json file and firmware for people to compare against.

https://ufile.io/f454c

So pretty much unless you have a clean mac to rip the firmware from your computer is vulnerable to firmware exploits and there is no way to detect it.
