This is also true. I think the particular threat I was replying to was "can employees, on a whim, go into stored e-mail and view it?" You're right that there's another possibility, which is that on a whim the employees will engineer a system such that they can view all the plaintext that flows into and out of your inbox.

There are maybe a few things that could be done to reduce your trust in "Honest Munin's Very Secure E-Mail Hosting and Used Cars", like, I could publish the code to the server and run it in SGX, allowing anyone in the world to use SGX attestation to verify* that the code running in SGX is the code that I publish, and that code could only initiate encrypted network connections with other mail servers. So even if I ran that in good faith and sat outside the SGX container listening to the network traffic, I'd still be getting a face-full of encrypted data.

This is still a "verify*" because maybe something is funky with SGX. You're not really trusting me now though, you're trusting Intel and the SGX TCB. Maybe that's worse? I don't know. I still think that's an improved proposition over trusting the honesty of system administrators to not grep your INBOX on a whim, though.

edit: I guess this also kind of breaks down because the story for TLS in SMTP land is kind of dire, so you could probably actively MITM the communication between the SGX blob and the outside and there's no practical way for anyone to know that this is going on. Maybe someone will fix that someday! Probably not though!
Yes, the machines they produce is very high quality and lasts a very long time. Longer than any other laptop I have used. Even if I have used it for quite some time it still feel fresh and performant.
I'm the same. I'm not at all interested in the new Macbook Pros with the touch bar and crappy keyboard, and the Surface Book 2 looks amazing. I don't even actually like macOS that much any more. And Windows has the Linux subsystem!

But. I need to do iOS development from time to time. At the very least, I need to be able to test web pages in Mac browsers. I can run a Windows VM on a Mac very easily, but I can't run a Mac VM inside Windows very easily. Sigh.
> you can write JS programs, that are equally perfromant, as the WASM program (WASM would be at most 10 - 20 percent faster). So if you see JS being slower in this case, maybe it just was not written properly.

I think that is a pretty bold claim without anything to back it up. I've never seen anything that indicates that while having seen a lot to the contrary.

The swedish government has been trying to prove that it has always been multicultural and diverse. The Swedish government have paid 450.000SEK for an exhibition which purpose was to show that islam always had a place in Sweden (even though this is most likely for modern propaganda purposes and not really anything actually educational).

The same goes for the established media. Anything that will "prove" that islam belongs in Europe / Scandinavia gets regurgitated without much scrutiny because of ideological reasons.

It is kind of fun to see white supremacism discussed in the context of Sweden.

Sweden is historically inhabited by europeans who happened to settle there over the course of centuries, and then to their amazement later discovered they are "white". They probably just thought they were people back then.

I haven't heard about Swedes participating in slave trade (vikings aside) and there was nobody else for them to oppress (vikings aside), so it's kind of strange idea that Swedes now has to make up for centuries of white supremacism ("people supremacism"?)

A lot of things which make sense in context of history of USA (when european colonists overran the land and then imported black people agains their will to exploit them) doesn't extend on Northern Europe.
Pascal was great when you were coloring within the lines, but C was more flexible. I don't think I was ever able to do image processing in Pascal, and I shudder to think what it would take to do a device driver.

Pascal was my primary language from about 1980 to 1990, then I transitioned to C and from there to C++. I missed the whole Delphi train.

Yes, from my experience all that eventually got fixed. For the first six months that I owned my surface book, I continued to use my rMBP. But by now, I really do enjoy using it as my primary computer. What I like most about it is using it with two external monitors connected to the expansion dock. I flip the screen around on my suface book and then place it in the middle between the external monitors and hook up a wireless keyboard and mouse. This triple monitor mode is awesome and perfect for doing some sketching or use my programming IDE on the surface book while having the other two monitors available for productivity. I replicated this setup at the office and home and now I can't imagine going back.

I've used Linux on a Surface 3 so I imagine it'll be a similar story for the Book: many things won't play as nice as they would under Windows (sleeping when closing it, WiFi), things like the touch screen might not play ball, and the graphics drivers might not work.

Linux 4.9 aimed to make the Surface usable, but I haven't found a distro that played with the Wifi drivers nicely (would work for a few minutes, then would shut off, become unresponsive, and required a hard reboot to get working again). There is a Fedora Surface image that many suggest works really well on Surfaces, but I couldn't get it to boot.

Now I just prefer using a Virtualbox image to do all my Linux stuff. It's easier to set up and requires far less rebooting.

In the same boat, I love my Surface book. The primary reason I would upgrade is for i7 and 16 gb at this point. At this point the price to replace a system that is working great I can't justify.

As a result I will probably upgrade to the SB2 in a few years and still be very happy.

So what is your solution? you haven't made an argument that there is an alternative choice other than 'more government'. Sure, bureaucracies are sprawling beasts of inertia, but what's the alternative here? Less government hasn't exactly proven to be less corrupt - it might just look like that because less corruption is outright visible.
OK, so on HN, it's clickable. But "gray text without underline" isn't always clickable on HN. This is true of other sites: it isn't even clear that the timestamp is clickable at all, let alone what'll happen if you do click it.

Why not acknowledge that this is a problem and just add a little "Permalink" link, which some sites used to have? Or at least a permalink icon?

Surely the combined design talent of Google, Facebook, and Twitter can solve this problem better.
Since you are arguing the difference between bribery & extortion:
"Extortion could occur between two businessmen and still be a criminal offense, whereas bribery is primarily focused on the bribing of Government employees or bribing by Government employees. But the most important difference is the difference between a threat to do harm in extortion and an offer to do good in bribery."

I'm highly aware of what I don't know and often very keen on learning new things.

You're right that we might use "short-circuiting" (AKA lazy) `||` in many languages to use a default value, but it doesn't usually work for variables.

For example, in Python:

>>> foo or "default"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'foo' is not defined

In Javascript, variables are either bound (e.g. with `var`, as a function argument, etc.) or else they're treated as properties of the `window` object (behaving effectively as globals).

This is very unusual, and can be thought of as mixing "data" with "code": the `window` object acts like a reified version of (global) binding environment, which in most other languages is implicit. This has implications for things like the usual distinction between bound and free variables (since we can imperatively add fields to `window` at any point), and hence for things like alpha-equivalence.
As I get older, I'm strongly swinging into the camp that thinks languages should have strongly restrictive syntax. Object pascal is one of those languages which is both low level enough to cleanly map to efficient code, as well as high level enough not to feel really restrictive. Its a language that is completely misunderstood because far to many people read a couple critical essays, and believed everything they read, even though the strongest argument frequently was that its harder to type "begin/end" than "{/}". Which is a pretty lame thing, given code completion in editors as old as emacs.

Put another way, the thought patterns programmers fall into when using it seem to result in code which is easier to understand than most other languages which seem to encourage "perlism" (creating a single unreadable line), "forthism" (creating a billion two line words that combine to solve all the problems in one word), or a few other things which become completely unmaintainable when the project grows beyond what can be written by a over-energetic student in a semester at school.

There's one metric Google's lighthouse doesn't look for, and it's huge to me. Speed while switching pages on a PWA, and if there's a loading spinner on every single page change, whether you loaded it or not.

A site I built splits JS and waits the 20ms for it to be downloaded, then switches the page. Other sites I see will put up a loading spinner every time and leads to a horrible user experience.

Yes. Many coding boot camps are full of people who are simply very employable. I think that's part of the reason why some of their hiring stats are so good-- there's huge selection and survivorship biases in their grads. I went to a bc 4 yrs ago and several of my classmates had cs degrees or actual work exp in a software dev role.

There are plenty of reasons to go to a bc besides "welp, I woke up today and felt like being an engineer"-- maybe you're working for a doomed company, or you want to change cities, you feel your growth is limited at your current gig, or you just want a break from your routine. Ymmv but it's a mistake to flat out dismiss all bc grads.

I did enjoy Pascal a lot, but right now it lost the PR battle.

Its spirit leaves on in languages like Rust, Swift, Kotlin and similar.

It is easier to drive adoption to those languages, than try to convince younger devs to use Pascal, even with a swanky site.

I like your idea, though.

It really depends on how much time you have to invest. On the low effort end, you can put some money into coinbase and speculate that way. On the high effort side, you could mine the "up and coming" alt coins on a box.

Personally, I'm telling a lot of my friends to put a few hundred bucks (money they won't mind losing) into coinbase and evaluate afterwards. At the least, it's an interesting tech/story so having some money involved makes it fun. There's also speculative upside, though idk if we're past the "easy money" stage or not.

I still think "investing" in bitcoin is a gamble and I'm not convinced it should have a place in your portfolio. Not only because of the speculative risk, but the added risks of forks, hacks, etc. I'm really concerned about how liquid the market is and should an event happen, the little liquidity that exists will dry up.

People somehow pressure them out. It is always messy and specific, so, it's pointless to ask for generalities.

Nobody. You follow the steps.

I don't understand this question.

Anyway, if you take a look at history, you will see that the only thing that ever solved a rotten top are those steps I outlined. Waiting for the old people to die off is a way of doing it, but quite slow and unbiased; it works much better with societal pressures biasing it towards keeping the more honest people.
From the standpoint of CAP theorem, Consul is AP and ZK is CP. AP and CP distributed systems have their use cases, so it's important to think them through up-front. For example, I personally consider service discovery to favor AP.

I arrived at that personal assertion by building a SD setup using our conventions + Curator + ZK. In disaster scenarios we forced into the system when testing, I was able to get ZK to basically lock up because, really, that's what it's supposed to do, guarantee consistency--if it can't guarantee consistency, then it tells you about it. Consul for us fit the bill better.

Note: This was some time ago and I do not claim to be a ZK expert; it's quite possible the root issue was me. YMMV, etc etc.
See this page[1] for a detailed explanation, which explains that under most extortion laws, the threatened act may be perfectly legal (like leaking photos of someone in a compromised position). It becomes illegal if the threatened act would "harm" the victim and you demand money in exchange for not doing it.
(Legally, harm has a very broad scope, and can include loss of reputation.)

[edit] Note that what this YTer is doing would probably not be extortion under California law as long as his claims are truthful, as he has already posted the videos, and is only demanding money to take them down.
