I'm not the person you're asking, but I have my own experience which mirrors theirs.

Only 5 years ago I was working hourly just above minimum wage in a job I disliked. The management had a very strict tardiness and absence policy, and a strike system that meant if were absent without proper excuse more than 2 times in a 3 month period you were terminated.

I didn't exactly have a traditional support system while I had that job. Lived with some friends, but couldn't reach out to family or the like for help. That's how most people were at that job. Independent, but broke. Still though, the job was miserable. I think of myself as a work-loving sort of guy but I dreaded every day of it. So we all were absolutely looking for any way to get out a day. Even if it meant we didn't have a 40 hour paycheck, when you loathe your job it just doesn't matter. Maybe you'll not eat lunch or dinner for a couple of days - but at least you'll be free.

I used my hatred of that job to propel me into something more. A lot of people in those positions are held down by other forces which did not affect me. I hope they can find their own ways out someday.

I don't think people like that lack moral fortitude. Going to work is not inherently morally righteous. Nor is a perfect attendance record. But, in my experience, people who have bad jobs that they dislike will game whatever systems are available to get as much time away from them as possible - even if it hurts their financial bottom line pretty badly.

>...if the problem is that that Dave behaves inappropriately sometimes, it doesn’t really mitigate the situation that he doesn’t do it all the time, and to every woman he encounters.

The assumption being that "the problem is that Dave behaves inappropriately sometimes", which may or may not be true. Character witness is relevant in these kinds of cases.
I'm starting to think that most of the companies shared within this thread which does 'exactly that', are built after this discussion..
Not quite. There are laws about why an employer can decide not to hire you, and it is easy to argue that if an employer asked about a protected condition and then decided not to hire you, they did so because of that information - so generally employers try very hard to avoid knowing about protected conditions for a candidate so they can't be accused of discrimination if they don't hire you. (In this case, the manager did more than just ask about it, he pretty much said they would reject him because of the condition, and that bit would be the evidence of illegal behavior).
That's a very shiny pedant.

How does it make you a greater risk? Is it possible you have an email address similar to someone else's? I receive emails obviously targeted at a different person, but because our addresses are so similar It's a common occurrence.

Unless you're speaking of a spear phish trying to lure you into clicking a link, it's just harmless spam. Hell the same could be said if I signed your email up for dirty porn emails, you'd just delete or ignore.
The question was not which library could present an AST for all those languages, but which kind of library format can be consumed from all those languages. And ideally without FFI and writing complex wrappers. C libraries non very convenient to use from C#, JVM, JS (node.js) or sometimes it isn't even possible (e.g. for JS in the browser).

The question is important, because otherwise one would constrain editors to be written only in a language which is compatible to the library format.
From Stan Kelly-Bootle's brilliant "Computer Contradictionary":

symposium, noun (from Greek, "to drink together") A gathering of scholars where each attendant is intoxicated by his/her contribution and sobered by the lack of response.
If you're getting ready for work in the morning and you're suddenly hit with an overwhelming panic attack and you feel afraid to leave your house, that doesn't leave much time to request the day off to use for vacation.

Most people will judge you if you call in and say "I am experiencing extreme anxiety this morning and I'm afraid of leaving the house, so I won't be coming in today." So instead you shoot your coworkers/boss an email or a text that says "Hey, I'm not feeling well today. I don't want to get you guys sick!" Because that makes you seem caring and thoughtful instead of a weak coward who can't handle the stress of real life.

Even people with "serious problems" have to pay the bills.

*Edit: I just realized that when you said there might be a more serious problem you might have meant that the employer is not offering enough vacation days. If that is what you meant, then I'm sorry for unfairly maligning you with my last line.

I totally see the upside of taking an Accenture et al approach but I can't stomach the offshore sweatshop model. In the early days I tried offshore and the quality simply isn't there. I can't sacrifice the quality of what we put out just to make more £££'s.
That's only true if it's prepaid. LE could, in theory, simply send an invoice to the account's email after the renovation (or on a billing cycle, say, yearly). Not that I think it'd be a good idea.
Yeah, I think your suggested mitigations sound reasonable. Everything in this space is going to be only partial mitigations, but it should still be discussed, especially if "secure" is a selling point and given that the FaunaDB service is billed based on usage.

What I would do:

- one-time use token for the creation form, a la CSRF tokens and nonces; Although that just doubles the number of requests needed to perform a submission

- rate-limit all endpoints based on IP, user agent, etc

Windows NT 3.5 ran the Win32 subsystem inside csrss.exe [1]. But csrss.exe was and continues to be a "God process" that is game-over if compromised. The difference between NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM (what CSRSS runs as) and the kernel isn't particularly meaningful to an attacker: both are essentially unrestricted access.

You don't need to intentionally create a radio receiver to inadvertently pick up EMI. Simple thin wires will end up with this same parasitic current problem, by nature of their shape and composition.

Shielding around these thin wires can be impractical in many situations due to the limited space afforded by the brain and skull.
Yeah, I agree. I lived in London, UK for a while and found the lack of sunlight much worse. Edmonton has a lot of sun, which makes it pretty tolerable.
At work, we use handful of SAN certs from Let's Encrypt. We have a few wildcard certs too, we obviously had to buy those. I'm glad to see LE offer wildcards, but I don't know that it held back too many people.

As for large organizations and the 90 limit, I find dealing with it at work isn't a big deal. We have so many they have to be automated anyway. Even if we only had a few, the process is much easier/faster than it used to be to have someone in the company buy a cert and figure out what files to get to us. Now we can just take care of it, no credit card required. An easy cert every 90 days or so or one that is much more work once a year? Let's Encrypt has my vote and people who want to make excuses will never run out of them.

Zeit Interviews Turkish President Recep Erdoğan
> Do you have evidence to justify this claim?

Sure, I worked a lot of retail/physical labor/etc. type jobs in my younger years. I was out of the house at an early age, and took these jobs very seriously since they paid my bills. My co-workers for many reasons did not, at least a very significant minority of them.

I don't think it's really "out there" to say that the typical minimum wage worker is not as high quality as the guy 4 years in making $20/hr. That is reflected in their pay, after all. The folks I worked with were either generally reliable and usually job hopped quite a bit every 6-12mo for raises, or they were just workers who barely had enough value to not get fired. The latter were more common, in my experience. Despite what you hear on HN and elsewhere - there are a significant number of people who have zero interest in working, and only do so to pay bills. If they could sit at home all day doing nothing, they absolutely would. Working with them is not fun, and until I found the whole computer/on-line community thing (in the early 90's) I felt extremely alone spending most of my day with those types that had zero ambition to improve their lot in life.

And I think it's more of a "masses" problem - not necessarily class based. Maybe investment based. You likely don't really care much about your $7/hr job, at least a significant portion of people do not. That same is not as true for the $100/hr job. It's simply a filter.

You see the same issues in other "body shop" style white collar offices too. Even relatively highly paid folks like insurance call center workers have to be treated like children, or you'd have half the office call out on a friday before a long weekend. Been there, done that as well. I imagine Infosys and similar companies have policies that look very similar to someone like Walmart.

I'm obviously having trouble describing my thoughts here - but in the end I'd say it's something like professional careerists vs. a just a job. The latter there is very little skin in the game for the average employee comparatively - and those that have that motivation generally don't stay in that socioeconomic class very long. You see the same effects in any space open to various segments of the public. The higher your admission fee the less you have to pay for people destroying things. More skin in the game.

Edit: I think it's important to state these are generalities. The actual working poor tend to be by far the hardest working most reliable folks out there. If they had issues making it to work - it was usually something huge in their lives. The thing is though? These folks typically got promoted or much better paying jobs elsewhere, so it's again a self-selection thing. Sort of like stack ranking your employees and only the lower 50% get to stay in your company.
A huge amount of people working as developers have no formal CS education whatsoever. In my company I even hear it touted as a perverse point of pride sometimes. (Kind of like, Oh you have a degree? I studied biology and I can still do the same job.)

Regardless of the value of the pun, telling people that they should comment about certain things instead of actually commenting those things yourself feels a bit strange. If you want to have a conversation about the security implications, why not just start it yourself?
Two dangers around this perspective seem evident to me:

1. Diagnosing others based on second hand information. Presumably not as a professional either.

2. Attempting to define right and "wrong" behavior in a psychological context.

On (1): you experience a vast minority of Trump's or Job's life (unless you know them personally). How can you possibly hold to those claims? You have no idea how either of them acted in non-public contexts.

On (2): I would assume that establishing a proper range for "sanity" sits as one of the larger difficulties around the psychological field of study (although I do not know). Too narrow of a definition and you risk identifying everyone with something wrong. Too wide and you risk alienating those who could benefit from some kind of help.

I completely agree with your categorization of mental health services as a "weak point" in society largely unaddressed. With that, I think individuals need to exhibit care throwing around 'diagnoses' casually outside of a proper psychological context.
Indeed this is exactly what webfaction does!

They get around the port issue by using a nginx frontend that uses the Host to route each request to the correct apache instance each user is running out of their home directory. All these apache instances are bound to higher unprivileged ports.

The author makes the argument that these commits changed the direction of git, and "Thanks to these two commits, it's now a tradition." The author's argument is made more compelling by the fact that it was the lead maintainer that made these commits. Did he need to name the lead maintainer? Perhaps not. But doing so does not convert the reasonable argument to an ad hominem fallacy.
No, that was the initial conclusion but later analysis (of the measurements) put it within the (non typical) range of her.. remember- it was partial remains too.

They also found a woman’s shoe and a sextant with a serial in the range that would have been issued to her.

It’s not conclusive at all, I agree, but it’s got vastly more evidence (that is otherwise not easily explainable) than any other theory.

How to effectively share your research at conferences – a concise walkthrough
> First, "sick days" generally are a policy for handling acute disorders; e.g. last week I didn't have disease X, today I do, and next week I'll be healthy again. You can't "wait out" a mental disease; taking a day or two off may reduce elevated stress levels but that is not the disease, the underlying problems aren't going to be solved when you come back.

In the UK time off to manage a long term condition could be justified as a "reasonable adjustment" under the equality act.
And probably deters a great many people from pursuing the basic science altogether.

Bandcamp is fine, but it's not on the level that Soundcloud was for browsing music (or for hosting your own). It's still really limited on the social side - the only way you get "likes" is when people download your stuff, the discovery tools are limited to "what's popular in this tag today" and random curated content. There's no "feed" like Soundcloud had.
Also, possibly the most irritating part of the site is that fan profiles and artist profiles are distinct entities. So if you want to buy someone else's music but you're signed in, you have to sign out, get on your other account, purchase, and then log out/in again. Super clunky. Last, there's no way to communicate with other people, other than the email that you send when you buy things. I used to legitimately befriend like minded musicians through SC messaging and we'd collab or remix each others stuff. Not a thing on Bandcamp, or not as much. Everything lives outside of their network - in Facebook chats or Reddit threads or some random forum.

However, despite its shortcomings, Bandcamp is where cutting edge music lives in an age without Soundcloud. Labels like PC Music, Mall Music and Dream Catalogue have all pushed independent music to bizarre new limits in the last 4 years alone. Orchid tapes, an indie outfit, made their name off of Bandcamp releases. Alex G, Katie Dey, Elvis Depressedy, and a slew of other musicians have been recognized for their indie releases and now enjoy moderate indie popularity. As long as no one else is beating them, Bandcamp will continue to run on its skeleton frame and empower artists who use it.
While learning from others is great, to get good at this profession, you really need to become a life long self learner (autodidact). Seek out challenges that interest you and implement them using new technologies and techniques.

This (causal entropic forcing) is one of the coolest ideas I've ever come across; it's one of my go-to stories about machine learning and philosophy.

It combines well with Jeremy England's theory that life is entropically inevitable: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/a-new-physics-the...

..and I wonder sometimes if you could make a religion out of all this; morality and existence based on entropic math. Consider that the goal of CEF is maximized possibilities, smoke a bowl, and think about fractals and holograms.

One of the things I find really interesting about CEF is that it doesn't specifically help with understanding or predicting the world around you; it just gives a very effective way to determine what possible actions you should actually do. Given that (AFAIK) the human brain/mind is itself a combination of many systems, it seems to me to be very elegant that a CEF agent is also a combination of systems, each of which have limitations and issues.

Thats what we are doing at our fompany but its not a platform but a service company: VNGRS www.vngrs.com
I've been trying to parse this body of work - there doesn't seem to be a writeup on the exact implementation, just that it's using "Causal Entropic Forces". They have this writeup on the optimization implementation here: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1705.08691.pdf

One red flag for me is that they're simultaneously claiming that there's no training during the OpenAI Gym while also claiming that the optimization approach is relevant. In that case, what is being optimized? It seems like they might be optimizing over previous simulations - there's frequent reference to having access to a "simulator". In that case, that should effectively count as training, right? I was under the impression that the OpenAI Gym was supposed to benchmark untrained approaches so they could be compared by learning time. Hence the gradually increasing training curves in the other approaches.
>This also involves a marshalling cost at the ABI boundary

Only for some languages, and that cost should be far far less than running a separate process, shipping json over pipes, and parsing the json

> And it's less ergonomic for many plugin/editor authors

I think that many modern programmers find this more ergonomic than a C ABI is part of what he is complaining about. Let's get comfortable with what is good, rather than make what we are comfortable with?
