When the paper was written, the jury was still definitely out on good concurrency practices for applications: the computing world(apart from mainframes, which of course had learned every lesson 30 years earlier, but nobody paid much attention to) had only relatively recently exited the era where one might ordinarily synchronize your co-processing units at the instruction level, with hand-tuned assembly, just like any other piece of external hardware. Cooperative, event-based programming is familiar to this style. Asynchronous primitives backed by hardware scheduling were the "new kid" for a lot of programmers.

So, like with every technology, there was some exuberance and overuse of a novel formalism which shows up in this paper: "scales to 100,000 threads", it proclaims. Not much later, interest in "green threading" and "lightweight concurrency" grew as a way to get some of the architectural benefits of being asynchronous while mitigating waste from large numbers of threads, and consensus shifted towards mixing the approaches, which seems to have converged on the few-threads, message-queue-per-thread approach.
I completely agree with the article. Car drivers have to have a lot more responsibility for their actions. They are already the worst part of every city, with their excessive honking, stinky exhaust and lack of awareness of their surroundings. So far, while riding on the side of a road, I've had a pickup truck driver trying to kill me in the US; numerous buses and trucks trying to hit me or run me off the road, SUV drivers and passengers trying to hit me with garbage and multiple people threatening me with violence (and a bus who had actually succeeded in hitting me) in Lithuania. Just over several years of commuting. In addition, I closely follow traffic rules, and always do the hand signals for turns. Basically, ride the bike the same way as I would drive a car. I also refuse to ever ride a bicycle on the sidewalk.

In contrast, in Denmark, the drivers were very aware of every bicycle and pedestrian and much more relaxed towards them. It felt like utopia there, and according to the locals, the strict liability laws are a large part of it. Another significant reason is that Danes in general are much more calm and relaxed than anyone else I've seen so far.

Huffington: “There’s a lot of data that shows when there’s one woman on the board, it’s much more likely that there will be a second woman on the board,”

Bonderman: “Actually what it shows is it’s much likely to be more talking,”

Yeah, I'm certain that lots of people bought FSX, so it always puzzled me that they didn't do anything about it as the years went by. Granted, FSX was truly crippled by terrible performance, and it really hasn't aged well. It doesn't even run all that well on today's hardware, more than a decade later.

That said, maybe DTG will do something with it.

One of the reasons I use that extension is that it deletes things a short while _after_ the last tab for a site is closed (so they undoing the close lets me keep going). In that case there's no content in which to run scripts.
Appreciate the seeing the security audit, but I don't think I'd use this on the open internet. As far as I can tell, this does not drop privileges or separate the process so the bit listening on the network is also the bit running as root.

A security audit is nice, but it doesn't provide ongoing protection.
It is not remotely unsafe the way that raw pointer arithmetic is unsafe. Proving things about what raw pointer arithmetic winds up doing is undecidable; non-computed goto, on the other hand, is completely obvious. On the theory side, at worst you can create nasty irreducible flow-graphs where you can't simply put code on 'edges', but this is pretty minor. It is very unlikely that a compiler is going to go into the weeds from a local goto; you are spreading FUD.

Exceptions, on the other hand, or non-local goto, has a good chance of seriously scrozzling compilers and causing a lot of optimizations to go away.

All that being said, the potential to break human understanding of the code with gotos is serious.
Which is why they claim you're the one that ran into them. Hence the need for dash cams.
Mozilla needs to stop chasing Google in this never ending quest to turn Firefox, quite literally, into the winning combination that is Chrome.

Just because Chrome is a winning formulation, doesn't mean it is the only one. My armchair example is themes... both chrome and ff now look like alien invaders of corporate identity on my desktop. While that makes sense for Google, it hurts Mozilla's image with the community of hackers/tinkers that love Firefox for features just like that one; features that quietly say, "its your browser, you likely know best". Especially because themes worked reasonably well for so long(at least from the users perspective, I'm told the implementation was fragile).

Maybe its time to go all in on the hacker community and make Firefox, a "Linux first" browser. The PC market shrinking, no one is arguing that. Trying to squabble over pieces of an ever shrinking pie is not a recipe for success.

This is especially true for Mozilla. All its competition can simply forget about their browser products and still be profitable. A failed Firefox likely means Mozilla disappearing for the digital landscape.

I propose that the Linux/Hacker community is the logical conclusion of PC itself and, by proxy, the PC browser market. Long after everyone has gone tablet or whatever, the last hold out of the PC market will be the Linux diehards, why not cater to them from the get go? You are going to be catering to them when all is said and done.

As a tangent, a great starting "performance feature", which is what all this e10s stuff is getting at, would be vaapi support for hardware accelerated video on linux. You can't really call your browser fast when it chokes the CPU on any 4k video. The the only browser to currently support it on linux... sigh... chromium.

I wish urbanists / "urban planners" would learn that same lesson too.

They seem to think gentrification / "YIMBYism" is "good" because it "invests in" or "cleans up" the neighborhood, not realizing that all the poorer people they "cleaned up" don't disappear -- they too end up living in some further out area, with all the same problems that causes.

> It was voted in by Boomers, what do you expect?

Boomers weren't the politically-dominant generation at the time Prop 13 was passed. I know people like to pretend all of history is divided between "Boomers" and "Millennials", but at the time of Prop 13, leading edge Boomers were in their late 20s and trailing edge Boomers were tweens. It's less accurate to say that Prop 13 was voted in by Boomers than to say Trump was elected by Millennials.

Prop 13 was voted in largely by the “Silent” and “Greatest” generations. Insofar as Prop 13 is unfair to young people, Boomers were the first young people that were on the recieving end of the unfairness.

You straight up asked me to imagine the situation was reversed. And I did. And I noted that it wouldn't bother me or really anyone. No one cares about women making fun of men, and I don't think they should. Especially if it was an offhand joke about how men talk more or less or something. I can't even imagine how that would raise any emotion in me. I might even laugh at it, provided the joke was executed well.

You are really grasping at straws to make an excuse for a double standard. Either gendered jokes are ok or they aren't. It shouldn't matter what gender.

Anyway the political skew on this site is ridiculous. The f-ing president of the United States got elected after saying way more heinous shit about women than this. Half the population still voted for him and loves him. Yet on this site any comment even remotely critical of feminism is downvoted and flagged to hell or removed by the mods.
Generally I support policies which incentives safer driving, but it feels a bit won't to punish drivers when, although nominally" cars cause accidents", the actual root cause is probably more related to cyclist visibility. This is a technical problem, and it should probably be addressed as such.
This hidden racism is rampant among the leftists. They start their policy-making by assuming that minorities can't do certain things. They make themselves feel better by telling themselves they are helping out the disadvantaged. But they really have a disdain for minorities. They don't see them as capable citizens, even when those things are basic.

Example: they think Voter ID laws are racist because they think black people and other minorities can't find or get to a DMV or don't have internet [1]

They want artisanal-everything, Whole Foods and similar which is also a way to push out those that can't afford those things. I hear them talk about moving to these hipster places that are "up and coming". I know what they really mean. A gentrifying place where they can be surrounded by people just like them, with the same views, the same interests, similar occupations and similar social status.

So do you believe that you can do some of mkempe's examples? Do you believe it strongly enough to try to give us a demo?

If you really believe that you can, and you try, you're going to get a very painful demonstration that reality does not match your beliefs. And if you don't believe it enough to try, you're just shooting your mouth off.

I was the Developer on Doshii (one of the companies listed in the article) for the first 2 years of it's life.

> Where were you based? Near to the city or a suburb?

In and around the city

> How was the internet speed?

It's still Australia. It's bad everywhere.

> From where did you work? Co-working spaces / coffee shops?

I worked mostly in offices because I work better in offices. Most of the time I worked in the bar of another company's office. Wrote on the windows with whiteboard pens. Moved to a co-working space much later on.

> Is it easy get connected with VCs?

I wasn't involved much in finding them but we had a few interested. When we were ready is wasn't hard to get in front of some.

> Is it easy for someone moving from outside to blend in?

Outside Australia? Outside Melbourne? Don't bother blending. You do you.

It's a mixed bad. You meet a lot of great people who are very fun and interesting. As to be expected there are also a lot of jerks who think they're hot shit. Generally more good than bad.

Hey, thanks to everyone for the kind upvotes. Hopefully it will be useful.

This is great advice.

When hiring we are usually looking for "T-shaped" [0] skill sets which you haven't developed at this point in your career. But it starts with self-motivation and some sort of itch you need or want to scratch.

You can also contribute to other open source projects and those can appear on your github profile - code, tests, docs, tooling, resources/graphics, etc. Getting your commit accepted will normally allow you to go through some kind of review - especially on more active projects. Find something interesting with helpful committers. Lots of projects have 'need help' tags in their issue tracker.

> Wouldn't 'as close to costs as possible' be exactly what it costs to maintain the property (insurance, maintenance / upgradtes, rates, etc) thereby eating all the steady income.

Yes. We basically break even, including the cost of the mortgage. The idea is to own the property outright in 30 years, and then slowly ramping up the profits but still staying below market rate. Or simply sell the property.

But the point is it's a long term investment and savings account, that doesn't depend on the value to go up. If I wanted to be more rational I would add in a small return on capital as a cost, which would still have me be below market, just less so.
There is a broad coalition of people who are excited about socialist ideas. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>Google does not have a WFH policy.

Google is also among the companies I wouldn't want to work for. It's just a deal breaker for me. Having a policy and then rescinding it would be another deal breaker. I get that there were slackers, but when it comes to developers, were team leads really not seeing this? They had to have an audit? How does this type of slacking even work? "Oh, I'm working on this thing that should have taken a few hours for the third day in a row".

My point was that I don't think she afforded the "bring your infant to work" policy for developers. One main reason I might choose to work from home, is that I would be able to look after an infant while my significant other ran errands. All kudos to heading right back to work especially after that tough of a procedure. (although I'd argue SHE should have worked from home at that point)...
How do you disprove guilt-by-default in a "he said/she said" legal case?
No, I don't think that's a good thing at all. Not having dinner with my family was just a foregone conclusion. Even if I show up at 6 AM you're getting dirty looks if you leave at 5, because half of engineering doesn't show up until 10:30.

I'm not saying it's right or good, I'm just saying it's reality.

The implicit pressure is going to be "you have to stay for the team dinner," even if the dinner is "optional." So given that assumption, I would much rather the dinner happen at 6:30 and get home to my family than at 8:30. That way I would at least see my wife before she went to bed (let alone my daughter).
That wasn't mkempe's point at all. Either you missed it, or you're trying to put words in his/her mouth.

mkempe's point was that there are universal human values. There are universal values for plants, which are different from human values. The "relative" was relative to whether you are a human or a plant. For humans, mkempe was claiming that values are universal.

You can disagree with mkempe if you want. That's fine. But don't misrepresent his/her position.

There are a fair number of "open air" parking lots that I see when just taking a look at satellite imagery.

For a normal threat model user, it's hard to fault an iPhone these days, especially compared to the cluster*ck that is Android security updates.

However, most of the stuff we have written about in both the online trainings and Umbrella is for Android. Mostly because it is by far the most prominent platform for the major of countries that have the highest prominence of security threats to citizens, activists, journalists, aid workers etc.
> make Firefox, a "Linux first" browser.

I don't know, in many ways that's exactly what the original Mozilla was, to little success. When the project steered to Phoenix / Firebird / Firefox and focused on Windows, things improved pretty dramatically. I didn't like the "betrayal" of the suite at the time, but it can't be argued that project velocity got so much better afterwards. "Linux first" would be a step back both technically and commercially (after all, FF pretty much own that entire niche already, there is no growth to be found there).
Drop? I updated from 10.10 to 10.12 on my 13" MBP only recently, and it is worlds better. Likewise I've found iOS 10 to be the most stable ever, even as I do more and more on it. I have experienced some recent bugs (couldn't download any apps for a while), but they got resolved fairly quickly.

Yes, you have people arguing there's been a drop in software quality, it seems to have been a great click-bait topic in 2016 particularly.

There aren't any real reasons I have for choosing C89 over C99. Both tend to be very portable, which is very nice if you aren't sure what operating system you are running on (if any, in many situations). I still write many programs using the "-std=c99" flag, but I never find myself in dire need of the extensions, basically honorary ANSI C. For projects like this that just do numerical processing, C89 C really isn't that much more of a hassle.
