I feel like that only works while you're young and in demand. Give it a decade or so. But I'm curious about your strategy.

There are many contexts that you simply can't work for someone if you won't sign an NDA. It'd be interesting to know the areas where that isn't true.

It does evoke the brilliant:

"We're making the world a better place through constructing elegant hierarchies for maximum code reuse and extensibility."

It's a infrastructure piece, which is several abstraction layers below the things that do impact freedom and all the other abstract values that high school LD debaters love to talk about. That they continue to parrot the "just missed a security update" view of the Equifax hack is both sad and makes me highly doubt their security acumen. True security relies on layers, not an impenetrable outer shell. Equifax's blunder was a fundamental lack of security-conscious architecture, not a failure to install a security update. I'm guessing that CoreOS actually understand this, they're just trying to profit from an event that's going to have real negative consequences for a lot of people who's information was stockpiled without their consent, which is a pretty crappy thing to do.
Tips for Successful App Development with React Native
The casual culture of pulling in hundred of dependencies, and mushrooming language specific package managers is ridiculously insecure and has to go.

There is no way for anyone to know what all this code is doing, there is little way to verify updates and its simply untenable.

If some developers like this sort of unsafe practice it should be strictly limited to their machines and in no way make it across in any form as a deployment artifact.

There are already secure distribution package managers with the necessary infrastructure, you are not special, use those. Ruby is already paying a price for imposing dependency hell of users and wasting millions of man hours. Many have suffered and do not even bother with Ruby apps anymore. Node and others who think this is a good model will be next. Users should simply boycott such user hostile developers and languages that encourage this kind of insecurity.

>I wish it were possible to make a service that lets you upload encrypted notes that will be made public after your death. But those two requirements conflict.

That's a very interesting idea. What do you mean by the "requirements conflict"?

Couldn't it be implemented with a dead man's switch where one would check in every year or so. Of course there would need to be some verification methods baked in to thwart pranksters.

This is a beautiful, romantic view, though I don't see how it can me made all that physically rigorous interpretation.

Here are some thoughts on the philosophy of what you say.

> Life is inevitable

On one level, this is a tautology: the physics of the universe are such that life has formed therefore life occurs with 100% frequency in all known universes.

On a different level, it's not too hard to build "physics" that are too trivial to even encode Peano Arithmetic much less "life" as we would identify it. Thus life isn't obviously inevitable in all physical models of the universe, so we can take the emergence of life as an "experimental constraint".

On a personal level, I too feel the importance of life. However, I don't think any of that special feeling is compromised by taking life to not be somehow "universally fundamental" in some way.

> Life is a fractal

The mathematician in me kind of flinches at this a bit. :p Fractals are super cool though! But, heck, the eastern coast of Cambodia exhibits fractal-like qualities too. As do coupled-pendulum setups and the x86 execution pipeline.

This line of thinking feels to me like putting The Mysterious into some spiritually special place in our thinking.

For myself, when I think something is "obviously true" I usually find that I just don't know enough to appreciate the intricacy of what's really going on. Dunning-Kruger and all that.

Anyway, just some 2 cents.

The biggest barrier to entry is not money but time. Every year the boards get cheaper while being more powerful. A esp8266 costs just $5 now and it comes with wifi. A wifi board for older boards that don't come with wifi costs > $5.

The biggest barrier to entry is time because unlike web or other higher level software stack, blogs and github resources are no where near the level you feel like you can figure out how to make something work other than Arduino and RPi platforms. Want to learn how to code Beaglebone's PRU with rproc and not the deprecated uio? Good luck. Want to learn how to configure TMC2130? Good luck. In order to drive the micro-controller space forward, the IC manufacturers really need to produce thorough tutorials that newbies can understand and get up to speed, and keep them up to date. Just take a look at Deep Learning, which became popular no sooner than micro-controller world did. I can easily list 5 top tutorials and MOOCs where a newbie like myself can follow and get some meaningful understanding or output from it. Deep Learning is arguably a much tougher and vast topic as well.

If you mean every Rust program requires a dispatcher to run, then no, Rust does not need a CPU dispatcher. Thread and locks are not primitives: they're implemented in the standard library (the std part, specifically). The 'thread' safety guarantees don't rely on that functionality, instead the arrows go the other way: the spawning and locking constructs build on the guarantees (driven by the Send and Sync traits, which are purely compile-time constructs) to provide expressive yet safe API. For instance, there's numerous operating systems built in Rust, for instance intermezzOS seems to be pure Rust except for the single file https://github.com/intermezzOS/kernel/blob/master/src/asm/bo... .

If you mean that it would be really nice if there was a general purpose dispatcher library available, then sure, that seems like something that would be great on crates.io.

In any case, I don't see how your comment relates to mine.

Raspberry camera has small issue - it's sensor (along with lens housing) is not soldered directly on PCB instead it's glued with double sided adhesive tape. So by adding by introducing PCB mounted lens assembly you will probably end up with half focused, half blurry picture because sensor will not be parallel to lens.

I've come to believe that all political systems at greater than community scale end up as kleptocracies. Because power corrupts. And because people are readily manipulated. Especially when so much data is available, and propaganda can be individually targeted.

I used to think that things would improve after the singularity. But Hannu Rajaniemi's novels have disabused me of those fantasies. It could well get worse. The masses become slave minds. Subprograms, basically.

NPM is my primary reason for not using NodeJS. I installed a specific package in an empty project and got over 690 dependencies. For running `npm install {package-name}`.

What's worse is that I skimmed the tree to check for anything particularly heinous, but there was nothing that stood out as unneeded.

With such a tiny stdlib, especially out of the browser environment, there's not really a better alternative than to make it easy to include dependencies for your dependencies. Without NPM, the Node community would be tiny if not already dead.

I don't have a better idea either. For my purposes, it just means I use a different language, but that's not really a solution.
Help fight the Normies
A few years ago I worked at a big company that desperately needed something like this. Without it we more than did our part to make the internet less secure.

Without containers, software releases and infrastructure upgrades were highly interdependent. The result was that the software never released and the infrastructure never got upgraded.

Being able to upgrade individual services, independently of the infrastructure, is a bigger enabler than you would think in a large company. When you enable this, teams are suddenly able to release more often. Features ship faster and the lifetime of application vulnerabilities shortens.

Meanwhile, if Tectonic works as advertised, your infrastructure can auto-update but continue to provide a stable API to the services it supports. Again, the lifetime of vulnerabilities shortens, potentially by a lot.

People who say that are people who don't understand fiat money's ONLY purpose is to track who owes what. It's debt-based. If Alice pays 1 unit of currency to Bob is because Bob gave her a product or service worth 1 unit of currency. Bitcoin is great at tracking "debt": universal, electronic, decentralized, robust, inflation-proof.

Programming language 'sages' tend to blurt out these generalizations, although they are based on insights which are only PARTIALLY determinant.

Many advanced ('fancy', if you will) algorithms are based on mathematical proofs and relations, which are seldom obvious. Some of them have taken hundreds of years to reach proof and be capable of being used as a theorem.

If all we needed were 'obvious' algorithms we would have hardly solved any real-world non-rudimentary problems with computation.

In my experience consulting in boring offices of companies that provide business reporting and compliance services a lot of the people only have a few hours of work to do most of the time. But a lot of the processes are manual and brittle and so every so often there is a crisis and if they didn't have everyone to minimize the impact of the crisis on their customers they would lose business fast.

I bet there are a lot of companies where productivity is low because people don't make extra work for themselves, do what they need to meet low expectations but the company needs to keep people around because they can't build processes that don't need the people.
A comment on /. stated that they use Monero, optimized for customer grade CPUs. Personally I do not see a problem in computing third party code: at the end of the day it's how HTML/JS was designed. If such code is harmful then it's malware and it has to be blocked and the organization spreading it bashed. Otherwise we should ask compensation for all the SELECT * ever written :)

This strategy is just as transparent as it sounds. Eventually US/EU regulators will find out and shut it down. A similar thing recently played out when a Chinese company owned by the son of a major Chinese aluminum smelting magnate tried to cross ship about a ridiculous quantity of aluminum through Mexico. In this case, certain rules may need to be amended, but that is not outside the realm of possibility.

> But concentration of manufacturing know-how remains in China.

The US and EU had a monopoly on manufacturing know how for all sort of things until some executives voluntarily transferred that to the (then) third world in order to maximize short term profits. Their successors have spent the last decade shifting semiconductor production from China to lower cost countries like Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand.

Why would we assume this is the case? Certainly an infinite number of possibilities have already been ruled out, like the possibility that the entire universe would be totally devoid of all matter.
This way of tracking worker concentration raises a lot of questions, especially in an era where we are surrounded with stuff designed to grab our concentration.

What if access to social media is made impossible? What did the numbers look like when it didn't exist at all? What happens to the 44 minutes? Does the "productive time" get increased? Or does the "news checking time" gets increased instead to compensate?

What happens during a weeks a 2048-like / google-pacman game has just been released? Does the "productive time" goes down to the toilet? Should we consider ourselves fundamentally less productive, and reduce the official workday time to 1h during this period?

What if the underlying phenomenom actually is "1/8th of work time = news checking", instead of "1h of work time = news checking", as the article suggests?

Please let's not jump to conclusions too fast ; the reasons why we're not working 100% of our 8-hour workdays have almost nothing to do with the reasons why Ford workers weren't working 100% of their 16-hour workdays.
That was a phishing attack, nothing to do with Apple other than that the people attacked by it were iPhone users.
With that reasoning, every single discussion thread that contains criticism is bikeshedding.

Bikeshedding is for people who care about a project in one way or another. In their mind they're contributing because they're providing feedback, but overall they're just wasting time because their "work" is far from significant, which means they are not really achieving what they think they're achieving.

In this case most people who complain about their name are not their users. Some actually do want to be excited about their tech and want to be their users but they are not. Which means none of these have any intention of trying to make this project better. I am not their employee nor their shareholder. Why should I care about them?

"Bikeshedding" only applies to people who have stakes in a project or care about the success of the project because they are foolishly wasting time on something that doesn't matter when they actually think they are contributing.

This is not the case in this case. I do not care about cockroachdb and I am not trying to contribute to their success. I just bitch about it because i think it's a stupid decision. This is not bikeshedding.

I'm working on an approachable (i.e. easy to setup and manage) container orchestrator at http://quilt.io that may be worth checking out. It's still very early beta quality software, and some features are missing (notably bare-metal isn't there yet, but it's on the roadmap). That said, it's designed to solve precisely this problem -- ops shouldn't be this hard.
Some thoughts on dataism
The problem with the term NIMBY is that it isn't really about anyone's back yard. It's about people who live somewhere trying to control what happens on nearby property.

You are trying to have it both ways by talking about both externalities and "self-determination regarding said BY". The latter makes if you are only "saying respect property" rights: let people have as many voodoo charms and do as crystal-power-empathetic-gardening as they like.

But if you say that their complaints can override the rights of others because of externalities, then there must be a rational case about about those externalities. Harm from radio waves doesn't have much rational case behind it.

I think you're mistaken when you say that there were no signs. There were many signs, and here are some of the worst. As a point of reference, Feb 7, 2014 is when Bitcoin withdrawals were frozen.

May 2, 2013: CoinLab sues MtGox, says MtGox promised to let CoinLab operate its North American branch. This makes no sense -- why would MtGox surrender its most valuable territory to a virtual unknown? -- but MtGox doesn't explain what's going on and simply shrugs their shoulders. They will be doing this a lot.

May 15, 2013: US Government seizes $5 million from a bank account held by MtGox. MtGox shrugs their shoulders.

June 20, 2013: MtGox stops USD withdrawals; bitcoin and JPY withdrawals continue to operate normally. People ask when they'll be restored, MtGox shrugs their shoulders.

July 4, 2013: MtGox says USD withdrawals are back to normal. This is a lie. When people ask why USD withdrawals are still not going through, MtGox.. well, you guessed it. They shrug their shoulders and just repeat the lie.

By this point, alarm bells should have been blaring in people's heads. Anyone who claims that this kind of crap was the norm for the bitcoin world should keep in mind that Coinbase had launched in 2012 and was running a much tighter ship.

By this point, people still had more than 6 months to get their bitcoins out.
