Right, however javascript will still be the only full featured language having its runtime and libraries included with the browser. That means that for other languages, only the ones with fairly light runtimes and libraries could be suitable for inclusion in most web apps. This will limit the choices for non javascript general development. It may be possible to do a webassembly/webgl rendering engine to replace html/css using a limited set of dependencies.
> I'm sorry but social media marketing is a business, not real innovative technology.

Is anything really claiming with a straight face that social media marketing is innovative technology?
Your assessment is totally correct. Steganography can be put everywhere. Perhaps the Free Software Foundation can take advantage of these cases for pushing for more use of open source, non-fingerprinted software.

OR for enforcing fingerprinting! (It can help with fighting against corrupt governments)
I think people might be downvoting because you're sort of all over the place and expressing 2 different opinions which seem contradictory.

I agree that there are cases (as noted in the blog) when email or chat is a better tool. But, they are not the right tool for all cases.
Of course, it's only really confusing if your only touch points in the state are I-95 and US-1. A small handful of miles either direction off the Northeast Corridor, and the state earns its nickname.
iptables will consume resources on your droplet (CPU/network) to filter out the traffic. Cloud Firewalls are applied directly by the DO network, before ever hitting any of your droplets, so it uses none of your resources.

Hah. If you think 3% is bad, I'd love to know what you think about the 30% that Apple takes for in app purchases. You are forced to use their system (or your app gets rejected), so you have no option but to use their payment methods. Highway robbery if you ask me.

I've been saying this for years: http://cryptonector.com/2010/04/on-unicode-normalization-or-... (originally at blogs.sun.com, now blogs.oracle.com, though I can't find it there).

The problem is that most input methods produce something close to NFC while HFS+ decomposes to something close to NFD. Which means that if you cut-n-paste non-ASCII Unicode names from a finder into any app that doesn't normalize, then you'll have problems.

The solution we came up with for ZFS was normalization-preserving but normalization-insensitive name comparison and directory hashing. This produces the best interoperability via NFS, SMB, WebDAV, and so on, and local POSIX access.
They work sometimes, sometimes people do rob you. That's still a thing that happens. So I lock my door to deter thieves, and buy insurance so that if I do get robbed I'm not doomed.

The NSA's statements aren't "we've lowered risk to an acceptable level, and put in safeguards for when leaks inevitable occur". They're "we're the only ones using this data, so there's no problem". That's provably false several times over.

To continue the metaphor, they didn't buy insurance because they trusted their home security so highly, and lately it's starting to look like they also forgot to lock the door.

Regarding Go and package management, I'd say that Go doesn't have that issue yet because there really is no package management outside of using mercurial or got repositories. They are working on vendorizing those in a one way fashion and expect, as a Go programmer, that there will be am explosion of drift in due time. As you stated, "I think this is merely a result of a language becoming popular and having a robust community of developers." I couldn't have put it more succinctly.

There's a code lock - the PAL - on US Tridents, not just the launch keys. Anecdotally and non-authoritatively I've heard that there are offline backup codes in a safe accessible to the command crew (which is the mechanism I refer to above).

"Last strike" is arguably a necessary component of a submarine deterrent since it means even a surprise decapitation strike carries the risk of a retaliation. It's certainly why the UK delegates launch authority to the captain (again, after a procedural verification of the destruction of the chain of command).

God, this stuff is frightening.
>> It's nice to see an artist agreeing with that viewpoint.

Yep. I've always beaten myself up over my ACT score. Near-perfect scores on grammar, science, and math, but near-zero on reading comprehension. And it was a lot of, "what is the author trying to express by using this word in the title?" I'd rather know how good I am at, "after reading this 5 page article, did you catch this really important detail well enough to recall it quickly?"

Art's important too, but can you judge someone's artistic side in a multiple choice test graded on a scale of 1-9? Don't think so...
How many firewalls can a single user create, and how many rules can be in each firewall? How is the order of multiple firewalls applied to the same droplet determined? Where is there logging to show when a rule matched? Is there any future plan to support REJECTing packets rather than only DROPing? Will the user interface warn the user when they are about to block all traffic (including ssh) to a droplet?
Maybe if you're working for something that requires very high security but it's completely unrealistic that you can security audit all your dependencies. I'm pretty confident Angular, React, Vue etc. don't have any glaringly obvious security problems that all the other contributors missed for example.

Do you check the source code for Apache, MySQL, PHP etc.?

If I'm picking a library for a component where its flaws would be high impact (e.g. security) and there isn't a strong community behind that library I'm going to be very cautious though.
Lots of people use planners and datebooks to remember important dates (like your high school best friend's upcoming wedding!) And lots of people use journals or diaries to take notes or keep memories.

It's Time to Rethink Agile at Enterprise Startups
Leave it to Pearson to sell us the problem and then sell us the solution. Taking poetic license to exaggerate just a bit...

The problem: High school kids now spend 100% of their time studying prepared curricula, sold by Pearson, to study for standardized tests, sold by Pearson.

The result: Students lose critical thinking skills.

The solution: A standardized test for critical thinking skills, sold by Pearson, and of course a prepared curriculum to study for the test.

This is largely due to microsoft being an early adopter of unicode. In the 90s, unicode was limited to 16 bits, so switching to fixed-length 16-bit characters made a lot of sense.

Of course, it didn't take long for that to change, but MS had already put a lot of resources into switching to UCS-2.
Ohhh that's a very good idea. I disliked the notion of management, and organization makes much more sense. Thanks a lot!
> Note that even on Windows, you still have to deal with the shell interpreting what you type.

Hypothetically that is not strictly true. You could create a shell that would be a very thin wrapper around CreateProcess and not do any interpretation or parsing of the childs arguments. In unixy shell must do at minimum some degree of parsing to split the arguments.
Agreed. I would highly recommend the book Disrupted which is partially about this attitude. It seems to be prevalent in the modern tech industry and the younger generation working within it.
How would you describe brogammer culture? I haven't really considered this topic at all so I may be entirely blind to it.
I agree, the study of philosophy is arguably the cornerstone of critical thinking. I didn't get to spend much time in college between deployments, but by far the most useful classes I was able to take were philosophy classes. Philosophical debate forces you to truly consider your positions and opinions.

College did nothing for me as far as IT skills go, but it did help teach me to teach myself.
Like I said, it gets tautological. What is the difference between a compulsion, a desire, and a want? All could be defined as "that which would make me happy". And as fully acknowledged in some of my descriptions above, it's not that one ends up better off, but that one appreciates something happening for its own sake. All of these seem to be equivalent. None of it is trivialization, it's simply a cloud of motivation in which there aren't easy-to-draw lines of distinction.
Strictly speaking, The Old Testament or Jewish Bible (Tenach) is made up of three parts 1) the 5 books of Moses [Genesis, ...], 2) 5 scrolls [Ruth, Ester, ...], and 3) the 12 prophets [Isiah, ...]. A Torah Scroll is the 5 books of Moses.

In Jewish tradition, there is the written part of the law (Tenach above) and the oral law which was given to Moses by God, but not intended to be written down but be passed down orally from generation to generation. By tradition, Moses told it to Joshua. As Judaism became more spread out and Jews more dispersed, they started to write down the Oral Law which with many commentaries became The Talmud.

The Talmud helps to explain passages written in Tenach. For example, "an eye for an eye" does not literally mean an eye, but rather the monetary value of an eye for an eye.

The Talmud is a book of process and ones learns the critical thinking skills by studying the Talmud. There is also of course the content which is learned.
> other metadata (eg printer-specific output artifacts)

This is actually a really good point. I've been rolling my eyes a bit at people smugly pretending they knew what DocuColor was last week, or equating it with things like EXIF data that are far more widely known.

But you don't have to know about DocuColor specifically to avoid this issue, you just have to suspect that printer outputs are a threat vector for something identifiable.

I think you might to re-read my entire comment: note that I'm not arguing that the technical details are wrong, only that they're insufficient to support the huge “APFS is unusable” conclusion.

As previously noted, Windows and Linux work the same way and they are used by more people in individual non-English locales than the total number of Mac users. Would you say “NTFS is unusable by non-English users” is a useful statement?

There's plenty of room to say that a particular tool needs improvement, or that people making systems which copy or archive files should check for pathological cases, but it doesn't help anything to overstate the case so broadly.
That's weird. Firefox is my first-choice browser, and it only takes a couple seconds to load Twitter. You might want to see if you have any badly behaving plugins.

You are walking into a classic argument about concise notation for experts versus self-explanatory names for generalist programmers. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14239228 for a previous iteration of this argument on this site.

Suffice it to say that anyone with sufficient mathematical expertise to actually make sense of this stuff, who is going to do anything interesting will want to use concise names. And yes, this will be the first thing that a programmer who doesn't know it will complain about, but it is far from the largest problem that you have to face in using this stuff. And if you work through the actually important barriers to doing useful stuff with this knowledge, you'll probably appreciate concise notation.
I remember the moment I unlocked the critical thinking I do have.

It was 7th grade, and I was in a home-ec-like class. The day before we had learned how to order from mail order catalogues (showing my age there). This day the teacher passed out magazines, told us to pick an ad, and then find 5 ways it was misleading.

Easy, right? Sex, money, Fame, these associations are in a bunch of ads, and everyone knows about them. But it turns out that 5 is a pretty high number for some ads. You had to really look. And even that didn't change anything for me.

Then we presented to others. And one girl showed an ad for Bayer, and said "4 out of 5 doctors recommend. Who picked the 5 doctors?".

My mind was blown. I think it was the moment where I considered myself a good judge and then was shown a point I had never even considered. I had thought all about having careful wording on the survey, not mentioning any negative results, but I had never considered that the very basis of it could be manipulated to the point of meaninglessness.

I think that moment of fundamental distrust, in both what I'm being told, as well as in my own certainty, did the trick.

Perhaps too well - I'm hypersensitive to being manipulated. I rejected any career that involved deliberate group manipulation, such as military, law enforcement, and legal. I recognize that EVERYTHING is manipulative to some degree and can't be avoided, but I try to avoid anything that does it very explicitly, so I can't for example, watch most documentaries. The moment the vocal pacing and background music starts something in my brains starts shouting "YOU ARE BEING MANIPULATED!" and I try to fight that manipulation, which is largely impossible so I generally end up turning it off. Ditto political speeches (I'll skim the transcripts, thanks), most anything out of marketing, etc.

I don't really think we can "teach" critical thinking, but we can provide opportunity for it again and again. I think our school system in the US (no experience elsewhere) is very poorly set up to do that, be it college or pre-college.

How many laws on the books does the average citizen break every day? Are all crimes equal? If they are not equal, does every lawbreaker deserve to be painted with the same brush?

I would suggest this line of reasoning - "they are all criminals" - is not productive. We all are criminals. Should we all be treated as such?
Holy crap. You drive up from the jersey shore to NYC every day??
You might have a different opinion once you have written a few tens of thousands lines of numerical code. There is a reason why mathematical notation is so terse - much terser than the “garbage” you bemoan, in fact.

Also, regarding your specific example, `eigen` would be ambiguous. Do you mean eigenvalues? Eigenvectors? Eigenfunctions? Eigenspaces?
What he gives is the identity matrix—multiply on the right by any 2x1 vector and you will get that vector back. So any such vector, provided it is not the zero vector, is an eigenvector with eigenvalue 1.
Ask HN: Looking for a list of web-based business models
These can be tech and non-tech (content etc) models. Ideally it would be nice to have a list or diagram of only the 'currently effective/lucrative' web-based business models.

why? I think it would be a great tool for people to take their idea and match it to the best business model, and one that is not out-dated, inefficient model, but a model that is currently profitable.
I've worked in several open plan companies, and what I find to be a key differentiator is that the companies that make it work:
a) institute a reasonable minimum amount of space per person
b) have enough quiet areas for people who find the open plan uncomfortable
Exactly - and that matters to me in cases where the ability to say that someone copying files won't change the checksum on a manifest, which users find extremely confusing.
> the reality is those that are studying it ARE religious. Even the koreans you keep referencing; even if they aren't religious at all, they are in the minority for those studying the Talmud that way.

"All those who study it are religious, except those that aren't, but they don't count anyways"
Well, that would certainly demonstrate the value of the text aspect of the code...
The problem is it explains to the wrong audience -- the overlap in the Venn diagram of "people who know what CRM means" and "people looking for a lightweight, open-source personal tracking application" feels like it'd be pretty small.

Since the app has a person's name anyway, I'd suggest abandoning acronyms entirely and making up something that sounds like a job title: e.g. "Monica, your Personal Assistant." (Which is an actual job title, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_assistant)

Vultr has the cheaper side down I will admit, but their network hasn't been to great for me. It's great for development work but for production-level stuff I wouldn't put anything on it.

Linode is like that old king on the block. They've had security issues in the past (multiple) and since they do store your credit card information those did get released (If I recall). They're decent and they work. They're a bit slower than the other two in my opinion, but they work and that's something I need.

DigitalOcean has been fairly solid and reliable. Yeah you can say you get more resources for how much you spend elsewhere, but DigitalOcean has been more reliable and solid than Vultr. I mean I remember opening support tickets with them and their response being "We took care of someone else on that node. Go ahead." Took me a solid 2 hours just to install a Ubuntu image on one of their (Vultr's) storage nodes. DigitalOcean has never had to give those kinds of responses to me and overall performance and the composition of their nodes has been fairly solid and reliable.

Yeah Vultr and Linode are cheaper and you get more, but I really feel DigitalOcean is solid and more reliable than Vultr. I mean Vultr's SLA is 100% uptime, but their credit return policy is to the effects of "we'll just give you your cheap money back". I don't care about credits and I just want my service online and not having to worry about anything, and most of Vultr's answers has usually been "wait" or "we did it" (but no real long-term solution to the problem). DO has been focusing on providing long-term solutions to problems I've had and no "bs" excuses. Linode has been solid as well, but don't have many of the features DO is starting to roll out with (which fair enough, it's their decision). DO has nothing but praise from me.
I'm no friend of the capitalist rentier class, I was mostly just surprised to see someone throwing around a figure like 65% tax without more justification.

That said, I feel like a better solution to wealth inequality would be something more direct like wealth tax or land value tax.
