The iptables rules are static though, aren't they? And they have bypass enabled, so you should be able to load them once at system boot time and leave them there to default to allow.

As far as nfqueue, I googled around but I wasn't able to find out what perms you need in order to communicate with netlink. I assumed you could open an fd and drop perms but it looks like it might not allow that. I agree that eventually you'd need a pretty robust multithreaded app to handle large packet flows without adding too much latency... it seems like quite a big burden just to authorize specific applications to make specific network connections.
No, the A in ARC doesn't refer to the compiler removing redundant retains/releases. It refers to the programmer not having to write a single one in the first place.
Did you have a market fit before taking the funding?
There was nytimes article some time back comparing how CA and KS did after former increased state taxes and the latter decreased. I am sure there are other factors but the gist of it was cutting taxes does not necessarily result in economic expansion. GDP of Kansas decreased over the period whereas CA's increased.
The tax cuts were sold with the phrase, "supercharge growth". So yeah, that kinda was a bit of the point.

It's true communication skills are more important once the senior level is reached. Perhaps the work involved in moving through the junior ranks is not appealing.

It's clear women on the whole are not drawn to STEM. It's not clear why but there does appear to be a biological component. It's certainly not primarily socially constructed.

That's my observation anyway. I haven't studied the issue in great detail.
A magic number analysis of the images used in accounts would handle pretty much every duplicate found (which would highly hint at mass-reselling) unless the people got smart enough to figure it out and start jacking with the color palette.
It was just one example. I've seen similar issues from IT security in other situations. Like recommending every tier of an application in AWS having it's own VPC, with firewall appliances between them, manual approval chains to open up ports in a dynamically scaled app, etc.

Basically, finding pragmatic security people that can balance "perfect" with "real life" is hard.

France probably has a proper ID card and doesn't have to use the driver's license as ID. So the driver's license is just that and since whenever you're stopped by police while driving they can verify you actually having one duplication isn't a real risk.

A mandatory training every other year would be an approx $2Bn program annually. (Based on $50 per person per class including administration, which seems very conservative to me)

It seems obvious that if you had $2Bn per year to spend on preventing avoidable deaths, this would be an extremely low priority.

What is "CO"?
It's wasn't exactly "fake data". It's just that Greece decided to use its own custom-made "IFRS" that were conveniently misrepresenting debt (among others) to make "this year look good".

Varoufakis's tactic was "catenaccio" (for the football/soccer aficionados). What Italian football/soccer teams established in the 80s and Barcelona perfected in the 00's, meaning keep the ball, pass it around with no purpose to attack/defend, just delay till kingdom come. Because since we will never "win" (maintain an inefficient and ineffective economy), we will also never "lose" (progress, liberate professions, promote state transformation, reduce of corruption and cronyism).

And this is why Greece is suffering this brain-drain while at the same time the economy is struggling.

Don Quixote was an honorable figure. Varoufakis, Tsipras and the rest of the happy campers in government are just a useless gang feeding of a dying country.

I remember the one-and-only time I used Etsy. It was for my wife for mother's day. I found a handmade ring that had holders for 3 tiny stones. I contacted the seller and asked if she could use 3 gem stones for each of our two children and pearl for their mom. It looked like I was gonna knock it out of the park for mother's day, she was gonna love it. I paid. Mother's day came and went, the seller's Etsy store went. After months of back and forth, Etsy issued me a refund. I lost that marriage, I guess it was the beginning of the end lol.

I think ∼3E−5 per base per replication. Might be a more useful number [1].

If you use 10mers, that only gives you 1048576. I'd be almost certain that >90% of those sequences also exist in the human genome. So your target isn't specific enough (take out stuff you need as the parent suggested).

So you need to use a longer sequence, perhaps 25bp. Maybe there's a stable region or set of regions you can target (in which case the high overall mutation rate doesn't matter). Or a cocktail of sequences, specific to the global HIV population (I doubt this, HIV mutates more in a single individual than Flu does in the global population).

But if not, then you first need to figure out what the viral population in this individual looks like. So you sequence a subset of population, and come up with a 25mer or set of 25mers that target this population.

That might be a lot of sequences (significant problem). Which you then need to get synthesized (will take weeks).

Now. It's taken days to run your sequencing experiment, and weeks to get your CRISPR stuff synthesized. In this time the viral population has been generating 10E11 new virions per day. You're population has moved on, and almost certainly contains members which don't have your previous cocktail of 25mers in them and will survive the treatment.

Because HIV mutates so much, there was some interesting work I saw a while back on guiding the evolution of the population. You'd use drugs which don't wipe out the infection, but push the population toward specific genotypes. Specifically those which you have good treatments for, in the hope that you can wipe out most of the population at once.

NStack lets data analysts to do sophisticated data work in the cloud without a team of engineers. To accomplish this, we’re a building a platform for composable, data-driven microservices, using a mixture of Haskell and low-level Linux systems tech (including containers, systemd, IPC, with some typed DSLs, systems code, and distributed systems thrown in). Our aim is to use the fundamental lessons of programming languages and operating systems to provide an abstraction over infrastructure - think Bash for containerised microservices.

We’re looking for both talented backend/systems programmers -- preferably with some knowledge of typed functional languages and *NIX systems programming -- and smart generalists / full-stack developers to join our team to make this a reality. It’s a challenging role, working on hard problems, and offers the chance to work with a top technical team and shape a company and product from an early stage.

NStack is funded by top-tier investors from the West Coast, the founders are both technical and ex-YC / academia, and our team is lucky enough to include world-class talent for the problem we're solving. Salaries are competitive and include generous stock options. We're generally hiring onsite, however remote within Europe is also possible for the right candidate. We’re looking at a range of positions and experience levels - whether you’ve just left uni or been hacking for 20 years, if you’re interested please get in touch.

Politically that's a great idea. Put those large rooms in the right states and you can get favorable bills passed.
I meant critical reaction, not sales. It's true that critics don't always represent the silent happy majority. But if there weren't a real problem, they wouldn't be scrambling to show their Mac Pro roadmap in advance.

In terms of sales, sure, the models that are selling the best are also the ones that have been refreshed recently: https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Mac
They don't want politics to get active to interfere with their business.
It is like VB 5/6's RC. And it is unlike RC implementations in which the programmer has to write the retains and releases. It is not, though, a compiler optimization.
The worst scenario is when you work after work and are unsuccessful at both ventures. There is no safety net, there is no rest. At least you are likely to die earlier from the load.

Astroturfing is building opinions by faking or artificially mis-weighting some opinions, like using fake accounts on social networks to vote and contribute with a particular sentiment, making it look like more people feel that way than actually do.

What Facebook does is to allow and disallow certain types of content based on public guidelines. Even if those rules are nonsense, unfair or politically motivated, it's at least not done secretly unlike real astroturfing.
It seems like speaking and even attending conferences varies a lot by a developer's personality type. I've always been a fan and find it the most effective way to take in info on a large variety of topics I might not otherwise find in a very concentrated period of time. The networking and whatnot can be useful too. At PyCon it was neat to meet GvR for instance. Anecdotally I'd say maybe 20% of the devs I know pursue conferences regularly.
Yeah, I see a ton of these stand-alone VR headsets that--on the surface--look amazing.

I can certainly understand how some features in the list would require sending user data to Trend Micro - blocking malware domains, for example. This makes sense - and it already happens with all the major browsers.

I am less sure why, for many of the other examples in the list, the router can't just receive updates from ASUS/Trend Micro without sending user data abroad. Maintaining a local list of common software and popular services is not that onerous for such a device. People with less common software are not likely, as you said, to be who they are targeting.

As I understand the article, the current EULA means I have to give access to my data to a third party if I want my router to receive some useful information (say, mapping) from them. This is information which they could just give my router anyway, without needing my data, in many of the cases for which the EULA is required.
Though if you subtract the working people for it from an organization, what remains? Not that I disagree, in the same sense that it's too easy to solely blame soldiers for the wars civilians enable politicians to send them into. Of course the folks at the NSA didn't wake up one morning and just decided to be a bit too creepy on their own.

But at the same time, no person is a completely passive receptacle for the social pressures of elusive active people, to a degree everybody is responsible for what they take part in. Otherwise, anything/anyone you could point to in criticism and for the purpose of changing any organization could in turn say "don't change me, change my environment", in an endless circle. But it's all made up of people in the end, so why not everybody own their own shit right away? Free will might be pretense anyway, so why not go the full mile.

Many things are also gradual processes, and often kind of a feedback loop. In this case I think it's safe to assume anyone who mentions during the interview they'd proudly blow the whistle on any seriously evil stuff they happen to come across, if the official path through superiors gets blocked, would not get hired. Can this be fixed iteratively, or would it make more sense to make a whole new set of organizations, attracting people from wholly different buckets of the population, and once those are up to speed turn the old ones off? Not super realistic, but maybe still more realistic than waiting for people who are entrenched and off the deep end, with a full support network and lots of bucks on the line.. they seem to get worse, not better.

I stopped drinking 2 years ago. I never crave the high from alcohol anymore, but every once in a while I get a strong craving for a nice tall glass of beer.

Beer takes a bit to develop a taste for, but it's pretty much sugar water and it goes so perfectly with so many dishes.

I'm tempted to pick up a non-alcoholic beer like O'Douls, but I don't want to start drinking again and I figure drinking non-alcoholic drinks is a step in that direction for me (I'm not a recovering alcoholic, I quit because it was getting in the way of my health/fitness goals).

> If we assume that group A and group B have the same average skill level

This assumption, on which your argument rests, is invalid.

I'm an engineering college student who's had conversations on this subject with admissions officers at my school. The gender ratio of accepted students is much more balanced than the gender ratio of applicants. Every year, the admissions department fields complaints from upset male applicants who were rejected; they feel that they were done a disservice because "the bar was higher" for them than for the female applicants. They point to the different acceptance rates for men and women as proof of this "lower bar" for women.

In reality, according to my school's admissions officers, the average female applicant is significantly stronger than the average male applicant. There exists, apparently, a huge volume of unqualified male applicants, who inflate that "80%" figure despite having no real chance at earning a position. We're talking SAT scores hundreds of points below the typical admitted student, no actual engineering experience, things like that. (I have heard that large companies like Texas Instruments also have this problem, which is why they place restrictions on which specific degrees applicants can have - to filter out that chaff.)

These men remain in the applicant pool where women would've washed out, the admissions officers at my school hypothesize, because it is easier for women to "give up" on STEM fields at the first sign of trouble due to social / societal pressures. Incompetent men, however, can think they're good at STEM more or less forever.

A more reasonable conclusion to draw, instead of "Facebook's male engineers are more skilled than their female engineers", would be the one that is presented in the article by the people who have the data. Namely, that this statistic arises from the confounding effect of seniority: Facebook's more senior engineers tend to be male, since the drive to hire more women has been more recent, and more senior engineers have code accepted more often.

Huh, I didn't even know they started selling public land. Last I had heard, the federal government tried to give back land to the states, but the states didn't accept. The reason being that the federal government was paying the states to preserve the land as if the states were making money off of it. So the states didn't want their free income gone.
You're technically correct, I think -- the actual point isn't to super-charge growth.

But without massive spending cuts, you need supercharged growth to offset lost revenue. The premise of Kansas-style tax policy -- which coincides in spirit with Trump's proposed tax policy -- is that you can avoid massive spending cuts by supercharging growth.

Without that premise, these tax policies would be much more difficult to push through. Because they'd have to admit massive deficit spending, or else come pre-packaged with huge cuts to popular services.

So, the end goal isn't necessarily to supercharge growth, but the promise to supercharge growth is a huge aspect of what makes these tax plans politically viable.

Drunk driving goes down quite notably with age

> https://www.cdc.gov/motorvehiclesafety/impaired_driving/impa... "Among drivers with BAC levels of 0.08% or higher involved in fatal crashes in 2014, three out of every 10 were between 21 and 24 years of age (30%). The next two largest groups were ages 25 to 34 (29%) and 35 to 44 (24%)."

It's not unreasonable to assume the 18-20 age group would be a similarly high percent as the 21-24 currently is, if it were legal for them to be drinking.
Many online communities historically have been bigoted and misogynist.

If the effect you observe is real, perhaps it's just the reflection of a community that attracted and kept more people over the years because it wasn't (as much) like that?

Indeed, part of that will be the culture of the company.

I've seen quite a few companies where any breach of security is held to be the "security team's fault", so they have an incentive not to accept risks (limited upside if they accept a risk, alongside a large potential downside if a breach/incident happens as a result)

Getting past that really requires a culture where security is the responsibility of all people in the organization and there's no finger pointing in the event of a breach/incident.
