I remember a friend of mine interviewing there. He was flown from London to SF for the interview. He got through the technical questions fairly easily. At the end, he had an interview with one of the co-founders, who asked him "As an FDE, what do you think your role is?". My friend totally BS'd his way through the response, thinking he's messed up the interview. The founder however ate up everything he said, and added his own flavor of fluff to the conversation. That's when he realised that Palantir was not really selling software, as they originally made out, but consulting, much like Accenture or McKinsey. Needless to say, he was truly disappointed by the experience - Palantir was quite simply not what it was made out to be.

I think this needs to stop, at least for this article, in HN. If this is about discrimination/mansplaining, I would have supported you. But things written in this article is correct and is bad for not only females but for the organisation as well.
You may or may not be morally deficient, but by demanding certain behaviours of women, you're being misogynistic. Many women have had the experience of being physically threatened, or threatened with career damage, by a man they refused directly and with sincere clarity, and have therefore learned to reject with a softer line that doesn't put them at risk of harm. Oh, and no-one cares if that wasn't you or how you behave. Your failure to comprehend demonstrates a lack of sophistication on your part. Don't blame women for your attribution error; help us fix the other men instead.

I wish there was a way for pipes to carry metadata about the format of the data being passed over the pipe, like a MIME type (plain text, CSV, JSON, XML, etc). Ideally with some way for the two ends of the pipe to negotiate with each other about what types each end supports. I think that sort of out-of-band communication would most likely need some kernel support.

Maybe an IOCTL to put a pipe into "packet mode" in which rather than just reading/writing raw bytes you send/receive Type-Length-Value packets... If you put your pipe in packet mode, and the other end then reads or writes without enabling packet mode, the kernel can send a control message to you saying "other end doesn't support packet mode" and then you can send/receive data in your default format. Whereas, if both ends enter packet mode before reading/writing, then the kernel sends a control message to one end saying "packet mode negotiated", and which triggers the two ends to exchange further control messages to negotiate a data format, before actually sending the data. (This implies pipes must be made bidirectional, at least for control packets.)
Typescript as a project might be bigger than the rest. E.g. compared to flow the typescript repo has double the stars and quadruple the commits. If those metrics mean anything.

That's still a questionable situation. If a subordinate asks out a superior, how does the superior know if they're actually interested, or are just hoping for preferential treatment? And even beyond that, peers of the subordinate, once they find out about the relationship (and of course, they will find out), may be uncomfortable with a peer of theirs having the ability -- whether real or perceived -- to bend the boss' ear to that degree.
Google chrome os!!!

Add on your comment about c, it's also a major problem with Windows. It's tragically so easy to attack windows systems with endless patching and discovery of vulnerabilities. The vast majority of companies could get by with their clients (the people who click on these stupid attachments with the infected pictures or word docs or web links) if they were given google chrome os laptops. google chrome os laptops would hugely reduce vulnerability problems for majority of end users.
Something that bugs me is, in languages that have a wrapping `namespace foo { ... }` sort of construct, the contents of that block being indented.

If, in a typical file, after the preamble at the top, you're giving ALL of the subsequent lines a minimum of 1 indent to the right... then what's the point of that 1 leading indent?

Just hug the left side. You don't need a constant visual reinforcement that you're a good kid who namespaces their declarations.
I've watched a COO of NYSE listed company on stage at company meeting describe something bad as 'gay' with 0 repercussions
I'm reminded of this:

Among his other activities, Woz collects phone numbers, and his
longtime goal has been to acquire a number with seven matching digits.
But for most of Woz's life there were no Silicon Valley exchanges with
three matching digits, so Woz had to be satisfied with numbers like
221-1111. Then, one day, while eavesdropping on cell phone calls, Woz
begin hearing a new exchange: 888. And then, after more months of
scheming and waiting, he had it: 888-8888. This was his new cell-phone
number, and his greatest philonumerical triumph.

The number proved unusable. It received more than a hundred wrong
numbers a day. Given that the number is virtually impossible to
misdial, this traffic was baffling. More strange still, there was
never anybody talking on the other end of the line. Just silence. Or,
not silence really, but dead air, sometimes with the sound of a
television in the background, or somebody talking softly in English or
Spanish, or bizarre gurgling noises. Woz listened intently.

Then, one day, with the phone pressed to his ear, Woz heard a woman
say, at a distance, "Hey, what are you doing with that?" The receiver
was snatched up and slammed down. Suddenly, it all made sense: the
hundreds of calls, the dead air, the gurgling sounds. Babies. They
were picking up the receiver and pressing a button at the bottom of
the handset. Again and again. It made a noise: "Beep beep beep beep
beep beep beep."

The children of America were making their first prank call.

And the person who answered the phone was Woz.

That is because they are all busy trying to make HTML/CSS/JS work like GUI tools we already had in the 90's, while failing to do so without major hacks, which then get written in blog posts as some kind of victory.

React is the latest example of it. Great! They just discovered how many 80's UI's used event loops.
So if, say, 1,000 men got completely unsolicited propositions, groping, etc. and one man "dated up" at a company with women in high leadership positions, would you argue that those problems are exactly equally important and exactly equally serious and make sure to post comments about how incredibly important it is to ensure some balanced coverage and make sure everyone knows that it's not just solely a one-sided issue? Would you make sure to imply that anyone who focused on the much more common case was "justifying questionable behavior"? And try to drag the topic away from the common case?

Do you also do this in discussions of any other topic whatsoever? Whenever someone posts something about HTTP, do you make sure to post comments about Gopher and present it as being just as important?

Save money on your Uber trips in #golang
Define a standard format for describing command syntax. I'd suggest basing it on JSON, but you could use XML or Protobuf or Thrift or ASN.1 or Sexprs or whatever. Embed in executables a section containing the command syntax description object. Now when I type in a command, the shell finds the executable on the path, opens it, locates the command description syntax section (if present), and if found uses that to provide tab completion, online help, smarter syntax checking, whatever–if you've ever used OS/400, it has a feature where it constructs a fill-in-form dialog based on the command syntax descriptions, which you can call up at the press of a function key. (Obviously the shell should cache this data, it shouldn't reread /bin/ls every time I type "ls".)
After being a windows jerk for 20 years I fully switched over about a year ago. My only remaining attachment to Microsoft is an old version of office I have running in CrossOver.

You don't seem to be alone in having issues with it.
There's a difference between being involved with a peer or with someone outside your reporting structure on the org chart, and being involved with someone who is inside your reporting structure. It's the differential in power when combined with sexual advances that creates problems, not the sexual advances alone.

Of course, unwanted sexual advances are a problem regardless of the relationship of the two parties, but unwanted or wanted advances between two people with a superior/subordinate relationship is where we get into trouble.

At all companies I've worked for in the US, there's never been a ban or stigma against colleagues dating, as long as there's no power differential between the two people. We still of course always expect people to behave professionally within a professional setting, but after-hours is your business.

If relationships between people with a power differential are commonplace in Italy, that's... unfortunate.
Contrary to rest who says women are not empowered in other domains as much, I will say the reason is there is lesser liability for making the accusation. I think, by hollywood you mean actors, and the impact on the career can be big as the job period for a movie is short and does not completely dependent on looks and experience. Other than actors, the majority of hollywood, there are completely different dynamics(make up artist, graphics designer etc.). And for Wall Street it's clear. It's not under the wraps. I think general public sees them as sexist much more than coders.

> what a more modern shell might look to address some of the problems of its predecessors like pipes that are essentially text-only, poor composability (see `cut` or `xargs`)

A new system and set of utilities. None of the Unix environment works in that world, and shoehorning it in would feel incredibly clunky.
Generally speaking anytime you start to breakout bash/zsh/sh/csh functions you've already entered a zone where just writing a python/perl script would be the easier and a more maintainable solution in the long term.
A compiler verifying against a static strong type system proves certain properties about your program which provides some assurances about what your program can and cannot do.

You might be able to prove more assuring properties about your program with a test suite.

When the GP said:

> A good type system enables you to structure your code in a way that most sublte bugs are "converted" to type errors. That's the magic of types!

I am almost certain that s/he meant type errors uncovered without actually executing the program. In a dynamic strongly typed language, you will need to execute the program and force it into these errors - presumably using a test suite.

> A language with strong typing (which additionally can be a dynamically typed language, something that many people are not aware of) will catch any of such type errors, without having to bother adding type specifications/signatures everywhere in your code.

A static type system does not need type specifications/signatures "everywhere" in your code. In Java and C#, it does. But many modern languages, TS included, can infer static types to a large extent.

I work on VoIP systems and 999 is set up on these as a priority dial (built into the system as "emergency number"), giving it's route out to whichever ARS is available.

> “Netscape couldn't catch with IE because of their convoluted stack”

Wait what? There are several reasons why IE managed to crush Netscape, but the complexity of their software stack isn't even on that list.

I was working in the industry when all of this went down, and I can assure you that Netscape's software stack had absolutely nothing to do with it. The actual story is mostly about Microsoft leveraging their monopoly to push competitors out. This is part of their standard modus operandi since the company was formed.

If you think I'm wrong, please give some evidence to it.
Yeah, that's the thing I don't get. I'm certainly no stranger to foul language (2 minutes with me in a social setting and that's obvious), but his shtick always seemed to me to be about shock value and getting a reaction, and a certain amount of braggadocio around being an "outsider", which has always turned me off.

There's another possibility:

> If he wanted a relationship, there are infinitely better and more appropriate ways to go about it, especially if he thought she might actually be interested.

McClure aside, in general situation when during recruitment precess you meet someone you would like to date is there really a way to go about it that doesn't end badly? Message during recruitment is plain creepy. Asking them out after they are hired is bad for obvious reasons like you being the superior and him/her having the impression that this is the real reason they've been hired. There was at least one story on HN that I remember when someone wasn't hired and soon after was asked for a date and it also ended badly, even if that person waited some time to be "safe" that still could be counted as stalking and using information summited during the interview for personal reasons is bad.

But you can't even ask about their phone number anyway! It doesn't matter if your intentions are honest and you two could be a good couple if you met at different occasion. Once the recruitment process starts he/she is pretty much removed form your dating pool. Even if you ask nicely without any inappropriate signals - any move you make can be seen by him/her as you taking advantage of the situation. Even innocent question about phone number can have really scary implications from his/her point of view.

Sure it can end in nice date or maybe an awkward silence and you explaining yourself and apologizing or it can give them a true nightmare... Are you going to risk it?

dudes really need special courses on how to not be harassers?

Given the many first-hand accounts of ordinary everyday harassment and men who flat-out do not seem to understand what is and isn't inappropriate, or what the words "no" or "I'm not interested" or "leave me alone" mean, yes, it does seem there is a significant population for whom this type of basic education is absolutely and vitally necessary.

Think of it like driver licensing -- many people, probably most adults, are, with a few lessons, perfectly capable of safely operating a car in most situations. And would seek out those lessons (whether paid from a professional teacher, or informally from an experienced friend or family member) regardless of whether they were required. But enough people wouldn't that we have to force every single person who wants to drive to obtain a license through a process that involves examination of their knowledge of driving and traffic rules.

So "teach about how not to harass/teach about consent/etc." should not be interpreted as "this person is calling out 100% of all men alive as well as me, personally and directly, out of blind hate", but rather as "just like driver licensing, there are enough assholes out there who ruin things that we probably need to make sure people are taught this".

Also, mandatory teaching/training ensures that nobody can pull a "well I didn't think that was wrong" excuse -- if people are taught what is and isn't acceptable, and there's a record of them being taught it, then they know it's wrong and we know they know.
There are tiers of hosts/miners with different options.

What do you mean “dialing too far”? Choosing the wrong hole in insert your finger into?
To expand on your first sentence: some past jailbreaks allowed booting different versions of iOS than the one with the bug, because they were lower-level (bootloader based). So you could upgrade for security fixes, upgrade for the latest features, or restore to fix a hosed system, all without losing your jailbreak. For a long time I wanted to implement that for userland jailbreaks, but I never did, and now it’s not really possible anymore. But that would have solved the “jailbreaks are inherently insecure” problem.

But yeah, much better if the cat and mouse game weren’t necessary to start with.
If you use bytes that are invalid in UTF-8 (e.g. 0xF5-0xFF) as delimiters / structure characters, you can use text-only tools to do structured operations on UTF-8 strings without ever having to escape anything -- the structural "characters" you would need to escape can never appear in the encoded bytes.
