Yes, it worked as intended. And still the employee felt humiliated, "the damage was done" and the mutual trust was eroded. So this processo doesn't work at all, even in the best scenario. That's why the author is criticizing it I guess.

What are those "natural skills" and how do they help people "succeed" exactly?
Please have the courage to state why you are downvoting. I have stated facts and it surprises me that anyone would be for Iran supporting terrorist organizations.

Iran is also developing nuclear weapons.

If you believe that Iran is not supporting Hamas and Hezbollah or that it is not developing nuclear weapons, please cite your sources. A simple web link will do.
Iran had nothing to do with 9/11. Perhaps you're thinking of Iraq, which also was not behind 9/11, but a similarly named country that we happened to go to war with shortly after 9/11.
I'm confused. I thought the idea behind cryptocurrency is that transactions are supposed to be much cheaper than existing money infrastructure. At some point, is this just a big scam to pay miners to produce waste heat?
Subscription to 1Password is not mandatory.
Or at least it was not in the past.
Without a subscription, you can create local vaults which can be synced via Dropbox, iCloud or over WiFi within the same subnet (which means over VPN too).

Here is some documentation on the Dropbox sync for example:

In the US there is also a large class of legal workers called paralegals that don't need to pass the bar. They usually (always?) work under a lawyer, though. The paralegal is generally responsible for running the day-to-day part of some specific aspect of a legal practice. They are analogous to nurses or physician's assistant in a medical practice, but for the legal profession. So they are not layers, exactly, but often do the same kind of things.

Have a read of the comment in context. He's primarily saying that the G20 is going to lean on the providers as the method of action. The journalist throws out a quip and he quips back. The journalist raises the point of 'what about outside the jurisdiction of the G20' and he responds that we've gotta start somewhere.

I think it's a misguided push missing some fundamentals and am totally opposed to it, but in context it's clear that they're not trying to legislate maths to behave differently.
You can make it safe by using a secret key in conjunction with the keys. For example; all passwords as written but the third character must be # instead of what's written. This renders the book useless if stolen or copied.

If you keep the book in a locked draw and use some tell tails to ensure that you will know if it's been opened you have a strong chance of being able to know if you have been physically compromised.

Any online key store is vulnerable in a number of ways, end to end security is hard. The biggest issue is that your provider might be placed under significant physical pressure relieved only when your account is compromised.

And you will be unaware.
This 10-Pound Keyboard from the 1980s Is Making a Comeback
That'd be like the Pilgrims calling the Native warriors 'terrorists' ... well 'barbarian'.

I don't condone Hamas, nor do I care for Islam, but no one comes close to contemporary Israel when it comes to inhumane and brutal war-crimes. I mean to drop Phosphorous on armless people ? That should take some cruel heart. It's not just Israel, US used depleted Uranium in Iraq, and before that Napalm in Vietnam. The brutality and the mass silence towards such blatant war crimes is stunning.
The republicans carry most of the south these days. I guess this means the confederacy was strongly pro-Lincoln? Presumably the whole civil war thing was fake news?
I'm not Ollie but I'd say the main strengths of pmOS is that it's lightweight (Alpine is a small Linux distro) and that it seems to aim to be structurally simple (only one package changing per device supported). There's probably some additional strengths in having pmOS as a community-led project, with no need to navigate the bureaucracy surrounding earlier attempts.
Much what i was going to say, until he mentioned the continuous conversation over the ensuing 3 years. That's still no slam dunk. Semi-regular emails fleshing out an idea are still far from actual "execution", but we don't have more info and the nature of the collaboration, so i withhold judgment.

I'll say this as a more general comment on this sort of thing: I work more within the realm of academia, and of course in that realm there is a very strong requirement and culture of citing all sources, influences etc. In that context, this issue might not appear, or not as much. Giving credit as a tertiary contributor is both easy and "free". That's harder in the startup world because boundaries if activties are more blurred, and giving any sort of formal recognition of influence or minor collaboration can cost a lot in terms of equity etc. At least, that's my impression, from the academia end of things.
Talking about 9/11, it was funded by Saudis and done by Saudis. Iran had nothing to do with it, and yet mr.PRESIDENT's first foreign visit was to Saudi Arabia. Doing all the weird sword dancing.

Australia is one of the primary test markets for Tinder and Facebook.
See this is the issue. When looking at the support of terrorist organizations, you need to look at it from both sides.

America and NATO have waged wars in basically every neighbour of Iran except a few. They've been directly helping Saudi Arabia with selling them a crazy amount of weapons. Saudi Arabia is a state that has many times threatened Iran.

All these support for different factions are a geopolitical game. Criticizing Iran for playing the game doesn't make sense as the second they stop their statehood is threatened.

I just would like to add that I hope they stop, but I know why they don't.

Now about the nuclear weapons. This is simply not the case anymore. Let's tackle what you said about that one by one.

- Iran is developing nuclear weapons. - No they aren't. The agreement they made with 5+1 clearly puts Iran under a magnifying glass of scrutiny. The EU and the white house have said countless times that Iran is keeping their side of the deal up.

- Threatening Israel. - This is true, however, Israel is the only country that hasn't signed the NPT. Yes they can technically make nuclear weapons now since they haven't committed to not making it, but at the same time saying Iran threatens them is an understatement. There have been dozens of Israeli officials that have threatened Iran with war. AIPAC has been seriously lobbying in the US to go to war with Iran. So it's not one sided, it's not like Israel is this shining rainbow and Iran is the evil fire nation.

Let's stop looking at stuff in black and white.
While that is indeed a big reason for the current family based immigration system, I think there are strong arguments to be made for a merit based immigration system. Some people may support it for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean that such a policy wouldn't be good long term for the country.
Keep in mind that enabling the LastPass Accessibility service in Android disables device protection features (like storage encryption).
I didn't downvote you, but my guess would be the 9/11 remark, which doesn't seem to connect with the rest of your argument.
If only there's a way to do that with my iPhone :(
9/11 was a terrorist act. Iran is supporting Hamas and Hezbollah which are terrorist organization (US, EU, as well as Israel). Terrorism is terrorism. When Iran supports terrorism it supports terrorism.

The only way to denounce terrorism is to universally denounce terrorism. Otherwise you are just supporting terrorism. Do you understand this?

The idea that we live in a meritocracy, and intelligence and novelty are rewarded more than being a corporate drone.

We don't live in a meritocracy, but it's an ideal that many (probably a lot of folks who work in startups) would rather push towards: replace the "lucky" rich with the "deserving" rich.
It's really not. All the sadness and broken-ness of PHP is still there.
Romania also has a competitive school system. Surprising to me (from UK) to find that even the class (in addition to the school) you get to attend in high school depends only on the final published mark you get in the National Evaluation (taken in 8th grade) plus your course mark. The exams don't measure intelligence as such, they measure performance in the subjects examined and how else should one objectively measure this?

No one defends the making of unwarranted perjorative conclusions from low scores other than as a measure of competence in the subject tested.
Smart? Yes. He's very intelligent, a former investment banker and very clever politician.

Definitely not as dry-cut as you make it to be - with those same strokes then the US is sponsoring terrorism abroad with its role.

And you keep mentioning the fact you were "a couple miles" from 9/11, as if this somehow adds credibility to this directly-unrelated topic...
This actually shook me awake when I read this. It was just a few months ago my aunts where sharing articles (through Telegram) with us, from Iran, about Maryam and her accomplishments. She was brilliant and really did serve as an inspiration to many Iranians all over. May she rest in peace.

Noncompetes that are tied to equity agremeents, rather than to employment contracts, are different, and often enforceable even in California (subject to various caveats, consult your lawyer, etc. etc.).

The paradigmatic case that California allows is: You own a restaurant that builds up a good reputation. You agree to sell it, with a condition in the sales terms that you won't open a competing restaurant within X miles for Y years. In large part what the buyer is buying here is your existing reputation and customer base, so you agree to a noncompete to facilitate selling these intangible items, which are more valuable if the buyer doesn't have to worry that you're going to sell the restaurant but then turn around and open a near-identical one to try to keep the customer base.
Until recently, MSR was also very disconnected from product development. There was a distinct change last year.

Also, in general most papers are more useful for writing further papers to improve on their limitations (until something's great), than to be adopted right away. This one is pretty cool, but both the conclusion and the benchmarks set out significant challenges for further research. After all, this is the first OS using automated verification, not the last.

> a lack of software developers inside Microsoft willing to replace their existing code and learn new tools and languages.

I'm sure research on the topic hasn't ended, so should they switch now or wait for more research? Or wait for research on verifying existing code? And if a new paper comes out, should they switch again? Also, do universities train enough developers to use such technology?
Why Canada Is Becoming a Hub for A.I. Research
There's seems to be some kind of American myth that "at will"-employment is for the benefit of the employee, or in the very least of equal benefit to both parties.

I like the idea of a text "attachment" but I could also see it being used negatively.

e.g. I tweet something positive in the 140 characters, and in the attachment I have something offensive. It's similar to the editing tweet problem.

I love this idea, but you need to nurture the entrepreneur in your child before giving them the money. Like a lot of people here, I have a decent degree from a good university; I can confirm that it hasn't given me much more than a foot in the door for my next interview. Most of the academic knowledge I gained, I could have learnt by myself (in fact that's what I did, even at university), and a lot of it is now redundant. In some ways, I feel a university education was a fairly bad use of my time and money. After uni, I got a "good" job, was hugely unsatisfied, saved some money and then started my own company. I cannot stress enough how difficult it can be to find direction when doing your own thing. As a kid you're used to living within a fairly bounded, directed framework. When you have to define your own direction, it can unsettle you. Make sure your kids are comfortable with finding their own way - it's not just about making them independent, but also about developing an intelligent work ethic (which I believe is the key characteristic of a good entrepreneur), and being comfortable in the midst of uncertainty.
Thank you. But they are connected. Terrorism is terrorism. You can't be against the terrorist act of 9/11 and then support terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah (terrorist organizations according to US, EU, and Israel).

You are either pregnant or you are not. You either support terrorism or you are against it. Iran clearly supports terrorism which means they have no respect for what happened at 9/11.

If this really becomes an issue, (and assuming companies manage to coordinate) you could simply require a one-time security deposit around $50–100 to be sent from a bank account. Voilà, no chargebacks.

Yeah, the KeePass database is encrypted and I secure it with both password and keyfile, but I still want something that won't leave my database "out there" available for bruteforce attempts or other attempts at it.
In my country (Finland), government actually pays for studying and universities are free. My experience studying abroad is that actually the curriculum and studying is mostly the same all over the world. I think there might some outliers in the TOP10 universities in the world, but the major differences are in the student population, connections and reputation. I think only maybe 10-20% study really hard anyways. At that point in life most people would have more than 100 usable hours easily, but most of the students do minimal work necessary and do something else.
Thanks for coding this up. The code in the blog post is, at best, incredibly misleading.

I don't think it would have helped, but I suspect it's less a distracting background offering serendipity/weak contacts and more basic expectations of finishing and communicating things.

The IAS has something of a bad reputation for fostering rest rather than revolution (I think both Hamming and Feynman criticized it in rather strong terms). You should also remember that Shannon was given carte blanch at MIT because he was so famous and respected, and that's exactly when his public output went to zero. Not that he didn't keep himself busy (he did a ton of stock trading and other things which is where Shannon's volatility harvesting comes from etc) but without any kind of external constraint or direction... I was shocked to learn that Claude Shannon died in 2001, because from how he drops out of all histories in the '50s-60s, I always sort of assumed he had died around then, relatively young.

(Probably a fair number of HNers could learn from Shannon's bad example: shipping matters!)
No. Same company, completely different products.
I'm sure you meant well but you sparked a political flamewar with this generically off-topic comment. Now instead of talking about a fine mathematician people are going on about terrorism and how whichever side they identify against is the one to blame for wars.
You are either being purposely obtuse or don't see the hypocrisy of your statements regarding supporting terrorism and the US.

> if you have a smartphone... there is no reason to be unreachable

It is totally fine to be unreachable nights and weekends[1] without providing notice to your employer; being able to detach from work completely from time to time is key to minimizing burnout risk, and what you do on your own time is none of their business.

Ah interesting, doesn't the Pi 3 use the same wifi chipset though? I think the Pi uses BCM43438. I'm not sure if all 43x chips use the same firmware.
I must call BS on your first point: it's not just false, but also quite naive to think that an immigration program would purposely target low-skilled individuals.

First, DV is supposed to use random selection (lottery) - so the resulting distribution should reflect the statistical makeup of the applicant pool.

Second, one of the DV requirements is a high school diploma - so the pool is biased towards higher education from the start.

Third, the rest of the process (documentation, online application, English/affidavit/liquidity requirements) again favors educated/affluent individuals.

So I posit that the opposite is true: DV is selecting from a highly-skilled applicant pool, and the benefitting immigrants are better educated than the average population.

Anecdotal evidence: all DV immigrants I know (including myself) hold at least a bachelor degree, and work in high-skill professional fields.
I use this ruby script:

print ((rand * 1_000_000_000).to_i.to_s + \
("a".."z").to_a.sample(10).join + \
("A".."Z").to_a.sample(10).join + "_")

It solves a number of annoyances. First, it's easy to type on mobile if you need to for some dumb website that clears your input field when you alt-tab, since it sticks to numbers, letters, then capitalised letters. It contains a non-alpha numeric character, but at the end for stupid forms that don't allow them.

As for keeping the passwords around, you can do one of a couple things, but I generally just forget the password after logging in with it everywhere. I'm signed into chrome, so what's the point in remember the password myself? Unless it's something sensitive I don't bother. It's easier to generate a new one than to dig it up.

Despite the misleading title, this only applies to "nonimmigrant foreigners." The title leads one to believe it applies to all travelers.

In my opinion, any country's executive power should have the right to restrict such travel for any and all reasons. In the United States, the executive branch has that specific authority.
You're absolutely right, I dismissed this far too early and didn't think far enough for an app like this. Thanks for clearing that up.
First they took the "nonimmigrant foreigners" and so I did nothing.

At this point in my career I've realized that if you're told your performance "needs improvement" and someone isn't assigned to mentor you and help you perform better then you should start looking for a new job.

Not apprenticing you is like saying "you suck, fix yourself". No. That's not the culture you want to be a part of.

I've been that guy. There have been times someone helped me and I grew and it was awesome. There have also been times I wasn't helped and there was a ton of unnecessary thrashing. It's just bad leadership. My guess is the work environment is maybe a little toxic in other ways too.

Companies use these highly one-sided contracts with IP provisions and such because they can and because it's not any more difficult to include it in their boilerplate contract than to not include it, not because it often makes a material difference for them.

Except for the non-compete clauses. Those are materially important and likely to affect a large proportion of total employment contracts (whereas IP clauses are rarely relevant).
