Microsoft was really really bad at security. Then the internet became a popular thing. I think an fresh xp install would, on average survive 15 minutes before getting infected by blaster. Microsoft, to their credit, improved dramatically. I don't know if they're extraordinarily good compared to other software producers. Microsoft gets the mention because it was so very bad, back in the day.

When people start getting jail time for flying in restricted airspace the events will drop. Idiots pointing laser pointers at aircraft used to be pretty common until people started landing in jail because of it. Trying to say drones need transponders and such is non-starter because the same people who will be so ignorant to warrant them wouldn't bother to spend the money on one in the first place and follow those regs.

"talking it out" rather than "us versus them conflict" (court) is the 'progressive' thing. Mediation over strongest-takes-all. It doesn't have to be about welfare or underprivileged groups to be progressive; that's a conservative canard. Look at marijuana legalisation, for example.
As OP said, there are also things to consider, such as IP reputation, etc... I've done higher volume mailing from a tiny server just like OP, but we also had a couple huge slices of a /24 and pile of /16 net blocks GRE tunneled and used different blocks of addresses for different types of mail. It's not as simple as just setting this up and forgetting it, there's a good bit of arcane knowledge required to do it right. If you're sending millions of messages per day, you cannot afford to burn a bunch of IP addresses because you triggered grey/blacklists for major ISPs or email providers. Shit, these days, you can't afford to burn IP addresses, period. They are officially exhausted. If you HAVE to hit a user's inbox, you can assuredly afford to spend a few grand setting it up right, and then reap the rewards for months/years afterwards for very little recurring cost. Just my two cents, as someone who built a single server to send millions of messages per day.
Most of the books (Dale Carnegie etc) actually tell you not to do those things. Genuinely listen to people, be honest, don't fake interest or anything else.

That you are "born with it" may apply at the level of high-level national politics or something like that, but for most of us, it's just another skill and the books are helpful.

They say "give me evidence", because so far they have an enormous mountain of evidence that SR and GR describe reality well.

That doesn't excuse people being jerks -- science should be welcoming, not alienating -- but it does mean "well, have you considered X" is almost always coming from a place of ignorance, not well informed skepticism. Some impatience with the cranks of the world has to be excused.
I don't know - the idea of someone who has done a week's "security training" running around all that expensive, critical ground and airborne communications & navigation equipment with a weapon capable of blasting out EMP signals makes me more than a little nervous...

No matter how expensive the "gun" is, you cannot really direct an EMP wave and restrict it like a traditional borescope weapon. All it will take is for someone firing it across an ILS transmitter array at a drone on the other side, and the airport loses their Cat II landing capability just as the airport gets socked in.

The Chengdu case DJI was facing was something totally different. I try my best to describe

1. the so called "drone" was witnessed by pilots from 1km away with bare eye. DJI products were very tiny and I doubt pilots could see that.

2. Yesterday evening it was raining and pretty dark outside, there's still a "drone" interrupting airport.

3. Lots of online speculation say it's not as simple as "DJI drone accident". It's rumoured there was a responder onboard the unknown drone.
No it doesn't. Rust doesn't have overloading, or operator overloading, or literal overloading. It literally has none of the pieces that cause the combinatorial explosion in Swift.

I can't even recall a single time when patents have helped 'the little guy'. The only case that I can think of offhand involve manufacturers holding out until the patent expires, even if it is a decrease in public safety.

I think the most simple, and best, reform for /patents/ is elimination.

While I'm on the subject, returning to the 15 year copyright and 15 more IF you pay a lot to renew sounds like a good starting point for that discussion.

Trademarks should have something similar (a slowly rising fee over time) but be allowed to exist as long as that fee is paid; that's a consumer protection mechanism.
This looks interesting. What does 19$ buy me? Updates for life ?
ECC is officially supported by all AM2/3(+) CPUs and AFAIK all corresponding motherboards from ASUS. As in, you have it guaranteed on the spec sheet.

There are also reports of BIOS support in some boards which don't have ECC advertised. And you can try to enable it in the OS even without BIOS support, though some level of hardware support is still necessary. As Linux documentation puts it: "may cause unknown side effects" :)

> Also, no offense, but I'm not going to rely on hardwarecanucks as an authority on this subject.

Fine then. AMD says it's unvalidated and unsupported, is that good enough for you?

> I'm well aware that this isn't the full grade of ECC support offered by higher-end Xeons and chipset combos, but it's better than nothing and it's affordable.

So would you be OK with running Xeon engineering samples then? After all - they certainly pass the same "best effort" test. Personally since these are server ES hardware - I'd tend to trust it more than consumer hardware like Ryzen, especially given their comparative age/maturity.

I just picked up a 10-core Haswell Xeon engineering sample for $140 last week. 40% more multi-threaded performance than a Ryzen 1700. The X99 mobo I picked up from Microcenter for $60 doesn't have ECC support but a bunch of them do.

Or if you want something that's official and you know works, there are surplus Sandy Bridge Xeons very cheap nowadays. A decent bit more multithreaded performance than a Ryzen 1700 - but you'll be giving up single-threaded performance. http://natex.us/intel-s2600cp2j-motherboard-dual-e5-2670-sr0...

Or really - a full retail E5-2630 v3 is under $500 now on eBay. That's not really that bad if you just have to have everything in one box.

> So for me, I'm looking at the possibility of getting a single system that can give me decent gaming performance, good development performance, ECC support, and more, all at a price that leaves me with money for other components.

What it comes down to: if you want everything in one box then be prepared to shell out. Everyone has this market segmented out, including AMD (after all they won't stand behind Ryzen's ECC either). If you feel you need ECC, that's really not a valid solution.

If a Xeon doesn't cut it for you - sounds like you might be in the market for two boxes here. A server/workstation with ECC and good multi-thread performance, and a gaming machine that you can overclock and get the best single-thread performance out of.

(Also - in general, overclocking also seems kind of counterproductive to the aims to running ECC RAM - although I guess I haven't looked into that.)

I wasn't criticising Swift. I criticised certain features of Swift being regarded as modern.

But, if you insist:

> Ada does not have parametric polymorphism.

Yes, it does. [1][2] It's supported through the use of generic units.

> Ada does not have ... algebraic data types

Ada does have tagged records, and other variant types, and has had for quite some time. [0] They aren't quite Sum Types, but are incredibly close.

> Ada does not have... Objective-C interoperability

GNAT does. It's part of the GNU Compiler Collection, and as such, can be linked against other languages supported by the toolchain. GCC also supports Objective-C.

Planes don't have to abide by bird flight laws. There would be some breakthrough from bird-like mimicry of neural networks and algorithms that allow to perform what NNs(our mechanical birds) need days to calculate.
Watch for research on how the black boxes of NNs are reverse-engineered and mapped. "Superbird" AI is just discovering that more general laws(flight) exist from bird emulation(bird flight) and applying it to extract direct algorithms that birds(NNs) produce internally(as instinct).
I am a self-diagnosed idea addict. I have whole notebooks lying around full of ideas spanning the last 13 or so years. Of all of those ideas, I've never fully seen any of them through. I have a few I am trying to whittle down to turn into a functional side project. If I were to guess ideas that I have written down, I'd say maybe close to 500 or so, spanning notebooks I still am in possession of. Over the years I've probably come up with thousands, many don't get written down.

I used to come up with ideas on a daily basis, multiple times. These days I probably come up with one or two per month. I would never pay for an idea, an idea is worth nothing. As always, the execution is what matters. Before Google, there were already search engines and they came along and did it better. Before Facebook was popular, MySpace was what everyone used and then Facebook came out with a better product.
Lots of reasons such as performance, type safety, static analysis, etc. NodeJS worked well when we were smaller, but it's not uncommon to work in code you didn't write and Golang and Java are languages where the compiler helps you a lot.

One of the best policies we have at Uber is our internal transfer policy. So long as you're in good standing perf-wise, you can transfer to other teams and projects within 1-2 months. For such a policy to work, it needs to be easy to work in unfamiliar codebases. I can't speak for Java, but it's much easier to drop into an unfamiliar golang codebase and be productive and not introduce bugs than it is to do that with NodeJS or Python.

I do exclusively golang work now but when I joined I was doing exclusively NodeJS. While the first two to three months with golang were a bit frustrating, I can't imagine writing a backend in NodeJS ever again. That said, I would still use NodeJS to build frontend developer tools, but that's about it.

And _this_, ladies and gentlemen, is why we have disclosure deadlines for security vulnerabilities. For example, Project Zero expects vendors to fix security vulnerabilities within 90 days of notification.

Looking at this story, it's possible that 90 days is almost too long and should be shortened. As time goes on, it's becoming more and more common for multiple parties to become aware of the same vulnerabilities. Not all of those parties have good intentions, as we see here. Shortening the window of exposure is key.
Ada was designed for the DOD by the High Order Language Working Group for this.

They wanted something safe for embedded, and the original specification in '83 included generics, so you could handle data structures in a nice, safe, performant manner.

> how do you effectively protect the airspace around airports, powerplants, or other critical infrastructure with such devices?

Use cameras, acoustic sensors, and RF receivers to detect a drone's presence, and use a phased array antenna to shit some appropriate jamming signals in its general direction.

Your local electronic warfare military contractor should be able to set you up with all the equipment you need for such a system.
Is it normal for people to just have a lawyer they can call? I don't. I wouldn't know how to find a lawyer for this sort of situation, or even what kind to look for. Am I looking for a criminal defense lawyer?
I also was in a similar situation. Not as bad as the engineer in discussion but, I went through similar situation.

Years ago, I started getting signals that my work was preparing to let me go, like putting me on Performance Enhancement Program, etc etc. The thing is I had not kept up with my skills and so I really couldn't find any work with similar pay I could switch to. I also decided to stay to do better work in order to prove the managers wrong. I wanted to prove the management wrong, that I'm someone worthy of employment. I wanted to prove to them that I am a person, not some disposable tool to be tossed aside. I now know it was a mistake.

The stress at work kept building up in me for weeks. I woke up in middle of nights, and I am someone who sleeps like a brick.

And it hit me. One morning, as I was stuck in a stop-and-go traffic on way to work on freeway, I went over the little section of freeway that allows you a full view of the long lines of cars packing the freeway. This view suddenly caused me panic attack and I began to feel claustrophobic. I felt the urge to take off my socks (and strip off shirt, which I didn't) and open the window (which I did) so that I could relieve the feeling of trapped in the car. I had never felt such sensation before. I believe the issue of claustrophobia went on for about 2 years, as I remember worrying about taking a flight to visit family.

I never never had such issues before.

I think I can understand why the engineer didn't leave for another job. With his experience, he could've have gotten another similar or better job, but I believe he wanted to prove the management wrong. But unfortunately the stress got to him first.
Drones are nothing of not noisy, and that noise is unlike almost any other piece of machinery.

It shouldn't be too hard to set up towers around the airport with sensitive speakers that can triangulate the location of a drone flying within a restricted area. From that point it can sound an alarm and/or deploy counter-measures.
So let's say they put in a rule that said all OEM's must update their devices every month or lose access to Google Play apps and services. What happens when the carriers start delaying or preventing the patches and updates from flowing to the devices? Does Google uphold the rule and revoke their access? Or do they start extending the time by 1 month? Or how about 2 months? Or what about 6 months? What's the point of adding a rule you can't enforce?

Theft from grocery stores, while technically illegal, is a rather light shade of crime. Some police will just pay for the groceries: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/12/12/officer-buys-eggs-f...

True that it's a possibility, but FWIW I think if they're actually just seeking relevant information from a third party who they believe to be completely innocent, they're much likelier to call than conduct an in person interview. And in either case, you are still exposed to legal risk from the interaction.
The sentiment of "the better product will win" is understandable, but wrong as you present it.

Microsoft managed to gain a monopoly (legally or illegally - doesn't matter) and has used it to illegally keep others out, and network effects now (and for the past 20 years) have been that "goodness" measure - technical mediocrity had been sufficient (although recently they have been doing a lot of excellent technical work since the horrible 2000's)

In every single field Microsoft has not been able to leverage their monopoly (e.g. Phones) they are not in a dominant position, even though in some they maintain a competitive one (Xbox one, c#, SQL server)
I am typing this (finally!) on my new desktop build. I did mull over the decision for a while but finally went with Xeon and ECC. So the memory cost more - perhaps even twice as much - so what?

If it never provides ANY benefit I will still not regret the peace of mind.
