Also, many CA don’t provide programmatic way to order and to download cert. Another annoying manual step, especially consider having multi-domains not convered under a single wildcard.

Sadly let’s encrypt does not support wildcard... and support for intranet is controversial to thosr who want to keep their intranet “totally private”. I love the autobot. One command to generate new cert, another command to reload my Nginx.

It isn’t just about finding “good” candidates. It’s about finding a diverse set of candidates.

Having spent a lot of time hiring over the past few years, I can tell you that the candidates we see from “top tier” schools are almost always “good”, but also incredibly homogenous. I’d rather take the bit of extra effort to find people with different backgrounds and world views that are also “good” at what they do.
This drives me nuts. I don't understand why it's so commonly missed.

I'm not saying anything is funny about it. this plethora of rape allegations toward men is horrendous AND I CAN ONLY FEEL SYMPATHY for the female victims, should it not now be mandatory to record dates and romantic engagements so they can be listened to in a court of law? This is not legal in the UK. I wonder one thing though. If the guy doesn't want to pursue the relationship with the victim, would an allegation be more or less likely?

"Hitler's concept of concentration camps as well as the practicality of genocide owed much, so he claimed, to his studies of English and United States history. He admired the camps for Boer prisoners in South Africa and for the Indians in the wild West; and often praised to his inner circle the efficiency of America's extermination—by starvation and uneven combat—of the red savages who could not be tamed by captivity." - John Toland, Adolf Hitler: The Definitive Biography[1]

I remember seeing a paper about relationships between genetic addictive disorders, impulse control, and carbohydrate intake. Tried before finding it, but just can't remember the right terminology.

As somebody with a family history of addiction, I can confirm that I get all kinds of cranky without my carbs. Imho some brains just crave those constant dopamine kicks, losing all impulse control in the process, carb intake seems to play a role in that whole dynamic [0][1].

A couple of years ago I did some "metabolic balance" diet which was very low carb for a couple of months, mostly to treat my migraines. After initial irritation, I felt really good physically but I had a constant craving for all the tasty carb stuff, like white bread/noodles, wearing me down mentally. I don't think I could live like that for years.

Neat tool - and a lot of hard, careful work no doubt.

In one of your articles, you say that your product isn't a 'grandma web site builder' or something to that effect. Any chance you could, in the future, perhaps use different language? Maybe something a little less derogatory to older folks?

You're sort of right, I suppose, but I'm not trying to make comparisons. I don't live in California but from what I understand there are building regulations to ensure new buildings are likely to survive an earthquake.

How are we to conclude that your argument has any worth whatsoever when you aren't able to even define the components of the claim you are making?

Don't be pedantic. Defining "scanning" as "anything that looks at the bits on disk" makes the word meaningless in this context, because then yes, Google must absolutely "scan" it to provide basic functionality, and heck every service everywhere must "scan" their data to provide basic functionality. But that's not useful to talk about.

> One command to generate new cert, another command to reload my Nginx.

Maybe this is what you meant but you can do it in a single command. For example:

certbot renew --post-hook "service nginx reload"
The issue we've run into with Let's Encrypt, is that they have a limit on the number of new (non-renewal) certs in a time period, grouped by high-level domain. So, for example, when you have lots of separate groups running sites until a common domain (groupa.example.com, groupb.example.com), you often hit the new-issuance limit, and have to wait.

So, I expect existing CAs (and groups like InCommon) will continue to be around to serve large entities.
> The US was more than hostile, we had soliders on the ground in Murmansk and Vladivostok.

US sent soldiers to secure shipments sent to Tsarist Russia. And surprisingly bolsheviks declared themselves "free" of any Tsarist Russia financial burden(s), so allying with Whites was logical.

So it wasn't hostile at that time.
I’m dismissing Trump as an example as he’s a clear outlier.

How much do you figure you would have to pay Bill Gates to babysit? Unless you’re in his immediate circle that’s going to cost quite a lot of money. People react to incentives in relation to their current wealth. A chartered flight or sweatheart real estate deal will mean a lot less to someone making plenty for their job of representing the people. They’ll also be much more sensitive to scandals.
It was always the plan of the Marxists to grab all the power and run a dictatorship. They supposed they needed that to reeducate the masses and change society. Then, they ended up doing what every dictatorship ends up doing. In the end, 100 million people died.

If your ideas require you to impose a dictatorship to implement them, then maybe they're not such good ideas.

To me, not addressing the specific regs they are afoul of is a huge lie of omission. Especially considering they are trying to cast those regulations as "outdated". If they are outdated, then put it out there. I'm sure the geeks who no doubt make up the lion's share of their customer base will be able to vet the regulations vs. reality.

I get the impression this is more like another attempt to do what Opendoc, the various ‘Works’ products of the ‘90s, OLE, Ashton-Tate’s Framework, etc. promised than a spreadsheet.

Question then is what would make this succeed at doing that where those products failed. That many people think they want something like it isn’t enough. Has the time for this kind of product come, is ‘collaborative’ the killer feature, or what?

Interesting. When I pushed a bit at (well-known tech company), I managed to get a couple of high-GPA CS students from my state university into the internship interview pipeline. These students were personally recommended to me by the school's top (IMO) CS professor. I was particularly excited for one of them, who had a 3.9-something GPA, and who seemed pretty solid technically when I spoke with him on the phone. Unfortunately, he didn't pass the online coding test in order to proceed to the next step. The others did miserably on this test.

Compare that to the students I interviewed for internships from top 5 engineering schools. Among them was one of the best candidates I'd ever encountered, regardless of experience level. He came up with a unique (and quite good) solution to a problem I'd been using as an interview question for years. As someone who had done fairly well in state school, I was floored by how much more well-prepared these students were than I had been.

My story is anecdotal, and there are many factors that can explain what I perceived. But I suspect the top companies have figured out that they get best results in hiring based on a) recent grads from top schools and b) great resumes from experienced devs who maybe didn't start out at top schools & top companies.

On the plus side from a diversity standpoint, the students I interviewed from these top schools were both male and female, and from a wider variety of ethnic backgrounds than I usually see in the hiring pipeline.
Actually if you define the COBOL slang well, you can add a construct which will allow dropping back down into Perl 6 so that you can intermix both languages and use each to their strengths in the same file.

That is how the string literal and regex sub-languages work in Perl 6.

Frankly while that is a nice feature, and makes it easy to test bug fixes to the compiler using the REPL, I don't think that it is the best selling point. Mostly because it is only used by a handful of modules currently, and most users of those modules don't care how they work.

I think it is better to say that Perl 6 is a rather flat language. Once you learn a feature, you can use it everywhere. For example there are languages that have special syntax for use in list slicing, whereas it isn't special in Perl 6. (instead you can use a lambda to do more complex slicing)

What this means is if you see a construct that you've already seen, but it is used in a place you didn't think it would work, you can pretty much guess immediately how it works. For example an <code>if</code> block can be parameterized using the exact same syntax as parameterizing the block of a <code>for</code> loop. Which is useful so that you don't have to create a temporary variable, or call the same method twice. (It isn't all that useful when using the comparison operators which only return True or False though)

The most oft heard complaint among people who are adept at Perl 6, is about having to go back to another language. I think the main reason for this is Perl 6 bends to your will, and other languages bend you to it's will.

Ha, a fair criticism. I was aware of the distinction, Salman seems to be sovereign in name only these days which is why I took the liberty of framing MBS as the decision maker:

> The question now arises: Will the king abdicate the throne and turn power over to the son he clearly trusts? Serious newspapers have raised the possibility. King Salman has already given his son unprecedented power. His nickname is Mr. Everything because he has been given control of the military, the economy (including the oil industry), and even control of the entertainment business. He has been the de facto foreign minister for the last two years, conducting all the important foreign policy issues and visits, including setting up President Donald Trump’s historic visit to the kingdom. He will presumably represent Saudi Arabia at the G-20 meeting in Hamburg.

Salman is 81 and suffers from pre-dementia. The state of his health is a closely guarded secret. He has been very busy this year, with a month-long trip to Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, China, and Japan, plus attending the Arab summit in Jordan, as well as hosting Trump and 50 Muslim leaders. So he, apparently, is capable of being in power for some time to come. His brothers have often lived into their 90s.
