Added Google Auth to JSONbin.io, Next Is REST API
Hi,

Couple of months back I released this small project of mine called https://jsonbin.io

In the feedback, people asked for secret bins/authenticated data storage, so I've now added API key for storing and accessing the data.

Next is DELETE API endpoint for secret bins and proper REST API implementation.

Feedback is appreciated :)

Thanks
Exactly. We've been through this before, with "racist" computer vision algos.

Are you sure about that? How is it possible to track the browsing history by a website?
And what would be those disadvantages? You listed things which you think are supporting the arguments to be present in the office. But one argument which is supporting on-site presence, doesn't make it automatically an argument against working remotely.

And you are basically trying to put words in my mouth. I didn't say a word that I will do what I am told without concern. That's only your implication.

Correct me if I am wrong, but you imply that because requirements are usually unclear: that means that clear goals are undesirable. Does that sound logical to you? Because to me that's a big no-no. I only saw people pushing this kind of mentality who like to fish in troubled waters and enjoy the mess to take advantage of it for their own sake (i.e. climbing corporate ladders).

And let me highlight one thing: if I am supposed to clear things up and organize my work, than what is my manager supposed to do? In this world that you imagined there is no role for a manager IMO. And that would be pretty much fine with me. It's just far from reality.

I won't subscribe to the idea that the office is a rainbow colored fairytale. I am coming from the exact opposite direction of thinking.
You can't relate to them and they've probably lost the ability to relate to you.
I grew up in a small Eastern European country where everyone knows someone who managed to profit hugely during the times of upheaval in the 90's and one of my school buddies from back then likes to go watch F1 races in Monaco from the deck of his speed-boat. When he's not spending his summers kite-surfing on the shores of Turkey.

I mean, I'm also in tech, in the US, which means my salary is higher than 99% of salaries in the world, but I can't begin to dream of living the same lifestyle my buddy can enjoy, and he's most likely small potatoes compared to the "wolf-of-wallstreet" types mentioned here.

It's unbelievable.
You need to weigh up your perceived benefits of blogging against lost progress of other aspects of your business.

In the early stage, focus should be on generating money so you become self sustainable. If blogging is part of that strategy, so be it. But blogging for bloggings sake isn't probably a good spend of your time.

However, the relationship between doing something here = an equal loss somewhere else is rarely true - so if it's something you enjoy doing as something different to your normal routine then why not.

We've written a fair few blog posts in the past and always focused on keeping them high quality and is has paid off in some ways - I would say though that writing a good quality blog post easily can take 1 full days work. If you're looking to outsource it, you're doing it wrong.
Reminds me a recent story: a friend's girlfriend, in her 50's, recently took off a month off to help move her widowed mother, in her 70's, down to a new retirement place in Florida. She took all her stuff from a 3000 sq ft house.

My two observations:

1. The economic price for someone to take a month off to move and rearrange a sizeable household is nontrivial.

2. That someone would desire to spent the rest of their days in a big house full of stuff is foreign to me. This is the generational divide.

The formation of a estate filled with physical possessions is a prime driver for a lot of older folks. The younger set isn't so interested in that.

My ideal retirement: a bed, a desk, and a laptop in a small flat on the left bank in Paris.

This is going to have a big impact on several industries. In the future, fine furniture and china manufacturers are going to look like furriers today.

>I do think that overall we see value in things that truly have no monetary value all while keeping this item of "value" in the attic or in a box without seeing the light of day for decades. Things take a great deal of time and energy and for me personally, there seemed to be a connection between a disorganized living space with a disorganized mind/life. I cleaned all of that up and found I had better health, had time for the things I enjoy most in life, and was far happier than I would have imagined by having "less."

I don't quite see how an item lying in an attic would make you unhappy.
I agree. And I hope this Ellen Pao issue cracks this system wide-open.

Because there is systematic bias in finance (would they put somebody with a tattoo on a board? somebody with a nose piercing? somebody who didn't go to college? As well as minority underrepresentation)

I can't imagine if boards did blind interviews, or even merit-based interviews.

I think the uncomfortable truth is, we in engineering try so hard to make our own little meritocracy, but we live underneath a bunch of spoiled 1% capitalers who see people who have less than a million (or of low class) as non-people and they keep wrecking our work [because they aren't actually as smart as Sergey Brin for example] and turning everything we make into ad-tech. (All the while patting themselves on the back)

Yes? Paying someone with American citizenship more than someone with Chinese citizenship for the same work should be regarded as unethical as paying a man more than a woman or a white person more than a black person.
We use Groovy at my work in a majority of our projects as well. I love traits and some of the other shortcuts and I don't feel like I'm too far away from Java that I couldn't work in it immediately.

The vast majority of jobs now are not 'low-level hardware, highly algorithmic or heavy in the domain modeling space'. They're corporate CRUD-style apps, existing software maintenance, and other such things. There's no reason that a bright student with a biology background couldn't be a perfect fit for these sorts of things if they have some contact with a computer science class or two.

Agree 100%, the less you act like a cog in a machine the less people will treat you like one. Lots of developers seem to want to log in to a system every day and just have a list of tasks they have to complete without any real collaboration or divergent thought and have their salary calculated by % of task completion.

In my experience the people who collaborate in the office and try to push things further are the ones easily granted autonomy and no longer have to answer to micromanagement. Managers can see the difference between a box ticker and the breakouts that are actually making a difference at the company, once you achieve that then you'll notice people stop questioning what time you turn up to the office if at all.

UI-level tests are the only kind that reliably test the full stack of your application. No amount of unis testing will catch a missing button or a wrong config setting.

And while recorders present some challenges, manually coding UI-level tests make the maintainability issue an order of magnitude worse.

The best way to make web UI tests stable is to involve engineers and make sure that the pages are structured in the way that make automation and validation easy. Usually the changes required for this are trivial. When they're not, it often points out something in the UI that doesn't make sense anyway, like having no confirmations for user actions.

And in any case, automated UI tests are still better than manual UI test, which is what a lot of people are stuck with.
Mac App Store fails mostly because the restrictions on apps in it are too severe. Many applications can not exist on it due to sandboxing.

This and the fact that the application itself is quite terrible.

Edit: Also, for desktop apps the pricing model without paid upgrades is not viable. Compared to mobile, there are too few customers.
Did the MacOS App Store fail? I don't think so. Sure, it's not as popular as the iOS store but this is probably because most Mac apps are an order of magnitude more expensive than their iOS counterparts. Personally I don't mind paying a few bucks for an iOS app, but I think twice before hitting that buy button on a 50$ app.
An interesting aspect of this is "How can you tell if a streaming site/app is legitimate?"

There are so many weird, on demand, maybe you need a cable package, maybe it's just all you can eat, maybe it's just a 2 month free promo, services out there that it's really hard for the average person to know what is legitimate.

The shrinking release windows and ongoing push for day and date digital releases just makes it even harder.

Case in point: TubiTV just randomly showed up on my Roku recently - It's available on XBox and streams a bunch of different stuff. Should/do I need to verify that they've correctly licensed their movies before watching?
Just paying devil's advocate but it seems by your logic all the phone companies should be ok to monitor all conversations and ban anyone having a hate converations. All email providers should be ok to scan email and ban anyone for hate emails or any other topic they dislike. They're private companies right?

The phone companies may be regulated as public utilities but most of my friends don't use the phone company's voice services anymore. Instead they call on Facebook Messenger or Line or WhatsApp which are not regulated as public utilities.

I don't know where to draw the line. Kicking them off say youtube? Maybe. Kicking them off the entire internet? I'm not so sure. Allowing them to stay on the internet (if you agree banning them from the internet is going too far) requires some companies to carry their content.

I understand where your concern is coming from, but I think you're missing a few of the pieces:

* When it comes to Selenium, Simon (the guy you replied to) is about as authoritative a voice as they come.

* The death of Selenium IDE is anything but sudden. It's really been more of a zombie for years and just kept kicking along. It's been saved from absolute death a few times over by generous support of volunteers willing to pick it up. But I don't think anyone tracking Selenium development is going to be surprised by this move.

* Selenium has been on a multi-year quest to shift support for the browser drivers out to the browser vendors by way of the WebDriver W3C standard [1]. The goal is for Selenium to be more of an interface to browser-specific implementations of the WebDriver specification more than anything else. Which is to say, Selenium dropping support for a particular browser shouldn't be too concerning because the major browser vendors will be maintaining their own driver implementation.

* Slightly related to the above point, but Selenium IDE is not and never has been maintained by Mozilla. The Firefox WebDriver implementation, however, is. And Mozilla is heavily involved in the editing and drafting of the WebDriver specification.

Hopefully that helps assuage your concerns.

As a post-doc in developmental cog neuro I feel I have to be a 'poly math.' Cognitive theory, Developmental processes theory, Brain theory, developmental brain processes, structural and fMRI methods and software, multiple regression (including mixed models, structural equation modeling) intermediate programming, linux administration, technical writing, experimental design, administration of research activities, teaching (??), and recently throw in autism research. On top of that, I'm reasonably informed on current events, read HN daily, keep tabs on the outlines of advances in medicine and other sciences.

I think I'll go back to sleep.
Heck, it already happens entirely inside of a field: probably once a year and at least once a decade, there's a major paper in math or physics that is basically "applying standard technique in subfield A to subfield B".
We started with everything in natural on our products, but rapidly I found myself wanting something more formal.

I have been working on formal specs for our products in Coq in the past but it took me too much time and outside solely software dev it got me stuck.

So lately I have been using TLA+ (I used it many years ago but did not find it formal enough in my then naive age and experience) and I must say it is great.

The learning curve is quite steep but not as steep as Idris or Coq (also less formal) and far more practical.

Think the author could have used TLA+ although I did not get a full appreciation about his executable specs from that article.
I have to agree with him.
"On January 4, 2012, I sent an email to the managing partners presenting all the facts as clearly as I could and asking for substantive changes and either protection from further ostracism or help with an exit."

> Are you suggesting these gender topics have a comparable consensus ratio?

Uh, yeah. A comparable ratio of social scholars are convinced that sexism is a major cause of the power disparity between the sexes.

> If so, evidence of this consensus should be trivial for you to produce.

It is. Like I said, it's on fucking Wikipedia!

> A humiliation and dependence that none of the outraged people actually lived through.

Really? You must lead a charmed life. Do you have any idea how many women experience sexual harassment at work every year in the US alone?

> It's amazing that women could put up with the insane discrimination and sexism to achieve gender parity in so many other male dominated fields, like law and medicine, all without needing the outrage machine, but they are somehow powerless against a bunch of nerds who, by and large, just want to play with cool tech.

Ha! Are you aware of the "outrage machine" (or "political action", in the professional academic jargon) that was required to get us to the point where women are even allowed to practice medicine or at all (or to vote)? That achievement wasn't gained by "putting up" with anything. You think "this is outrage?! Take a look what it took to get women the right to vote in Britain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffragette#Early_20th_century...

I always find it funny (and indicative of a complete ignorance of the subject) when people think that feminists today have taken it too far (of course, conservatives often acknowledge the justice of past progress yet claim that this time it's too much).

The fight with nerds isn't the longest or hardest -- far from it; it's just the most recent.

> Frankly, it makes one question whether outrage is really a useful response at all.

That is a good question, but one that history can thankfully answer. Yes, it turns out that outrage can be extremely effective. Of course, it's hard not to be outraged in the face of injustice (just look at how outraged some people were after Damore's firing, even though this is a truly rare occurrence, and he did cause a scene that required the CEO of Google to cut short his family vacation).
> I just think it's fair for them to set terms of service that lay out what you can and can't do, and for those terms of service to have some moral backing to them, beyond simple legality.

This would make a great piece of cyberpunk dystopian fiction. Humanity in a far off future finds its codified moral compass not in religious texts, not in the spoken words of religious leaders, and certainly not in books written by philosophers. But rather, in corporate contracts copy-pasted together by Employee #5 at some hyper-growth startups during the Early Years.

Why do we still give a shit how someone chooses to spend their free time? Why can't you be successful and partake in drunken S&M orgies at 3 am? As long as it's between consenting adults, I don't see why it should somehow tarnish your character.

The macOS app store didn't gain much traction but you're underestimating just how much of a cease pool the Windows app store is. Microsoft must have the resources to moderate that better. But based on my last test search of "Firefox" coming up with dozens of fake Firefox apps or "apps" that are "Firefox Guides" basically PDFs wrapped as an "app" etc... My only guess is Microsoft knows there's a truly abysmal number of legit apps so they just choose not to moderate it

Every visible trait that makes you seem different from the rest of the in-group counts as a 'demerit.'

- Are you a woman in a male dominated field? -1

- Are you a racial minority relative to the dominant group? -1

- Do you take time off in a 24/7 work culture? -1

- Are you gay? -1

- Are you transgender? -1

- Do you have a physical disability? -1

.
.
.

If you have enough of these, then the group will likely reject you, and will also rationalize your rejection along the lines of performance or poor 'fit.'

Groups have to take specific proactive steps to prevent this kind of behaviour from emerging naturally.

What can you do to help? If you see evidence of discriminatory behaviour: denounce it immediately and publicly.
