Women have more matches, but a worse experience. Men have less matches, but the matches they get are better.

Which is better, getting 1,000 matches in a day, when 999 of them are people who just swiped right no matter what, or who are downright rude, aggressive or poor communicators?

Or getting 2 meaningful matches in a day from people who actually want to meet you and might be a good fit for a relationship or friendship?

The first is just a bunch of noise with no signal. The second is preferable.

And plus, I'm a guy and I would easily get 3 or 4 matches a day when I was on Tinder. It's not like men are completely ignored on it. I'm hardly a supermodel, but nice pictures and a well-written profile can go a long way on online dating. Plus living in a high-population city.

Just speculating here, but it wouldn't be surprising if Amazon ultimately acquired Twilio. CEO Jeff Lawson used to work for Amazon after all.
You can't believe that we thought some women had mood swings that relate to their having wombs ... I might have news for you! Sure they got the level wrong, but it was basically an early endocrine based explanation for human behavioural changes?

My favourite "I can't believe" is probably homuncular theory, that ejaculate contained a tiny little man [men?], fully formed, who grew to be a baby. Presumably it was homuncula all the way down?? [Not sure of the historical verity of that theory.]

They could at least allow it. Signal is the odd one out among secure messenger apps for having no way of adding a contact in a face to face setting without uploading all your contacts to their servers.
The funny thing is that we already have national TLDs. And many of them require that a person or company is a citizen/resident of the nation before they can register an address there.

but the gTLDs were in a sense in legal limbo for a long time. On paper they were always US controlled, but anyone anywhere could register there.

But then more recently we have seen sites takes down by the FBI and similar even though both the physical servers and the owner are located abroad. This simply by having the registrar reassign the DNS entry to an FBI page.
You are why we can't have nice things. If you don't follow the rules, others don't know what to expect from you. That means you are more likely to cause an accident. You're right the rules weren't designed in a perfect world - if it was perfect, nobody would have accidents. Instead we need rules so you know what others are likely to do.
I respectfully disagree. From a short term investment perspective, then yes, perhaps I would be interested in profit/employee ratio. However, from an holistic economical health and long term investment perspective, I want to see the top revenue/employee generators.

Why is that? Because revenue is a pure measure of productivity, whereas profit is a measure of income after a number of filters (deductions are applied - some of which are subjective) have been applied. Using revenue, I can see how much horsepower a company is contributing to society.

It all boils down to what your looking at the data for.

If I'm looking to hire one person to lift kegs of beer into my truck everyday (this is me dreaming) I'm more interested in the big lady doing more absolute work (e.g. lifting 350 vice 300 lb).
From what I can tell, it's worse than just Intel being a gatekeeper - every execution of "remote attestation" essentially relies upon the Intel Attestation Service to actually perform verification (or at least as the certificate authority). In a (hypothetical) world where all of Intel's security features are owned by the US intelligence community, this type of pattern seems like an awesome vector for deception ("false sense of security"), where surveillance groups have a large supply of Intel-certified EPID keys, which they can use to arbitrarily fool remote-attestation clients. It's concerning to me that the OP article doesn't even mention Intel's highly trusted role in this process.
For those who (like me) don't know this company:

"Google Cloud announced today that it has acquired Bitium, a company that focused on offering enterprise-grade identity management and access tools, such as single-sign on, for cloud-based applications."
Sure, but compared to the stickers UI paradigm it's far clunkier to browse for an image file every time and to collect and arrange image files sent by other people, particularly on a mobile device.

Also, stickers display with proper transparency, giving them the appearance of arbitrary shapes, whereas images on Signal are displayed in a rectangular frame and transparent areas get a black background.

Compare:

Same experience: my 4yo built a rainbow-colored case for a Pi2 B, cabled in monitor and keyboard and mouse and power, and knows it’s the computer she built. Following Goerzen’s advice, she gets a text login—so three years later, she knows about startx, apt, and finds alpine about as usable as iPad Mail.app. When the computer was disassembled for a move, we had a great conversation about how to put it back together, what was working where, and how USB ports defy physics and have three sides, one of which is invisible.

As a first approximation they could be looking at what IP you connect from. unless it is coming from a known TOR exit point (and famously Facebook even operates an .onion address) or some VPN, that would give an indication what nation you reside in.

After that i guess they would look at what data you have given them.
I think that competitive programming, the kind of programming done at IEEE / ACM competitions as well as interviews, is very different from actual day to day programming.

It tells you the person understands data structures and some aspects of programming, but translating that to productivity/success is questionable.

In addition to competitive programming you've got "collaborative programming". Programming for maintainability, growth, construction for verification, good practices, etc.

A good programmer has a balanced combination of both.

Although they probably tell the auditors the opposite, there is all sorts of potential data in there that is illegal to possess. Everything from the details of active police investigations, identity of undercover officers, pictures of abused children, investigations of child abuse, to HR matters, to attorney-client privileged information to secret tax data.

In many cases, unaauthorized possession (and disclosure for the government person) is a felony.

I think it's fair for non-simple coding problems.

If someone asked me a problem that basically reduced to a textbook case of something in the middle, difficulty wise, like reservoir sampling, and I said "oh, nifty, resevoir sampling, what do you use that for in your stack?" and they said "nothing, I just want to make sure you can code," then depending on how my experience to that point in the process had been going I might challenge them on that to some extent, a la "do you find this more useful than questions that are more representative of the work you're expecting me to do?" If the loop had been going particularly robotically, this might find stronger forms - I've walked out on a mismanaged interview before, though it was way worse than this (and way worse in a very different way - they just weren't at all prepared and the tooling they wanted me to use wasn't actually functional).

Or they might answer something more like "we use it to select test cases from our logs to ensure that we're adequately testing against real behavior with proper weights" (or whatever—it's been a while since I actually did this in a past job :) ) in which case I'd still try to have what I consider a more "real" conversation ("what primary problem are we trying to solve, and what else might be options to consider"), but in that case at least they had a good answer to the question and I'd be happy to write the code too.

But lastly, frankly, as a hiring manager I absolutely want to hire people who are willing to "not focus on the task at hand" and question things. I don't want people who just blindly do what I tell them to, I want people I can trust to disagree with me and be able to make a case for why they disagree. Being a manager doesn't mean my instincts are 100% and theirs are 0%.
Nonetheless, Bazel is very much set up for Google's mentality of building giant static binaries from head and shipping them off to a server somewhere, where they'll be replaced in two weeks with the next release, and then never thought of again. There's some software out here in the world that works like that, but most of it doesn't.

In any case, CMake is _also_ a dependency management system, but works with libraries in the way that they are shipped on a typical Linux distribution. It lets you find common stuff easily, and has multiple extension points in terms of adding support for new libraries. CMake itself can ship your find module, the library you're linking against can ship it, or you can ship it yourself.

As far as I know, you still can't upload video to Twitch: they are focusing on livestreams. You can record your livestream, and then make it available to view, but well edited videos are rare (you'd have to make and edit the video, then stream it, then edit the VOD for length, etc)

Edit: found https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/2577667-vide...
which seems to indicate that you can upload video, but it seems to be rare on the platform compared to their bread and butter livestreams.
Signal allows you to send messages to numbers which are not in your contacts, which by definition implies it can be done without uploading your contacts to your servers.

In person you can also exchange "safety numbers" via QR code which provides key verification.

regarding the database question:

I hear it as:

"Tell me how detailed your understanding is of database internals in a conversational format; here is a talking prompt to help..."

regarding typing in the url question:

"Tell me the level in which you understand networking protocols"

In the real world I would hope these questions would be more of a discussion; "ah, you mention ACID, what kind of pattern can you employ to help implement that", "MVCC" etc..

This format of interview is hard to pass on simply regurgitation alone and does a pretty decent job of vetting technical understanding in a natural, conversational way.
The US didn't and doesn't pursue corporate espionage at a government level. The Clinton administration was presented with the idea, but the question about what company would be given the information wasn't clear since, unlike many countries, the US has no real government controlled industry.

It does degrade it tho. There have to be ui elements to interact with them, you need to be up to date on packs, a market needs to be implemented, maybe payment needs to be introduced, the chat looks ugly full of graphics, etc. Plus, every feature adds vectors of attack and things to maintain.

Lets talk about backups
Backups are the bane and the core of IT... non-sexy and nobody wants to talk about them.

But as we move forward in a multi-cloud-vendor world, where we are largely having to deal with compliance regulations, things get complex quick.

How are you doing backups/DR/BCP to the cloud when you have data types of; Enterprise, HIPAA, CJIS and you have a spread among the big-three (G,A,M) clouds?

Do you backup on-prem to one, over the other, if so, why?

Backups in a multi cloud world are fast becoming an area where we need to shine the design light where its typically kept in the dark.

I would like some of your approaches, please.

The headline is intentionally inflammatory and absurd. Look around the large hardware and software manufacturers and ask which one is working the hardest to protect your privacy and and security. It’s certainly not Chinese-owned Lenovo for crying out loud.

One of the mitigations is that macOS requires apps to be signed, so the malware needs you to install a signed version of itself, forcefully install an unsigned version, or hack an existing software and use it to sign itself. Not the best but could certainly be worse.
Oh ok, thanks for the correction.

You don't need any of that. Certainly none of that is present in Telegram. I don't think you read my original comment in full.

Ironically Signal already has Giphy integration, but I suppose you didn't notice because you don't use it—as would be the case with stickers.

Readability is why I use "closing flags" so I don't get lost in a sea of closing curly brackets. Example:

if ($TreeHasLeaves) {
Write-Host -f green "The variable TreeHasLeaves is $($TreeHasLeaves)"
}; #end if TreeHasLeaves

My "GilLang" auto-adds these closing flag comments after each closing bracket - currently it only supports Powershell, but the goal is to streamline basic coding (if/then, for/foreach, do/while, try/catch) in many languages. To create the above function statement, curly brackets included, just type use "New-FunctionStatement if TreeHasLeaves -Powershell".
Is the only difference the placeholder X? I was running into issues with dplython in executing arbitrary functions outside the tidyverse. Can your package handle situations such as this?
