If an American spy plane showed up over the Soviet Union, the plane would get shot at. If an American spy plane showed up over France, they wouldn't get shot at.

Of course there's an understanding that intelligence agencies are all ultimately looking at everything, but there's a degree of cooperation. Even in the current state of affairs Russian and American intel agencies work together on anti-terrorism stuff.

However, if the other group is clearly actively against you, then it's harder to work with them. It's safe to say at this point, given the evidence out ther, that WikiLeaks does work with an objective of embarassing American interests.
Sure. If they don't care about free speech, that's their prerogative. I'm saying you can be critical of Twitter on that basis, and it would be no defense against criticism to observe that they aren't legally required to care about free speech.

All GP is saying is that some gambling, such as on casino slot machines has a mathematically defined (and legally regulated) payout of less than 100%. Same for state lotteries.

Bitcoin may well be in a bubble, but it isnt mathematically and legally guaranteed to decrease in value overall as compared to what most people consider traditional forms of "gambling".

Most of the statements in here are biased by Percona's relationship with MySQL.

I mean you could complain that it's a fork; but who are you to bitch it's free software. If you paid for MySQL enterprise and they forked to something else and your license is worthless then you have a case.

So it's not MySQL 8.0 and it doesn't have the same features as MySQL; it's obvious that the developers of MariaDB don't have the same mindset (and possibly same user audience) as MySQL does.

Lastly most people use MySQL because they don't know better. You read a book about LAMP and it tells you to install MySQL; you really didn't make a choice. Lots of applications depend on MySQL and don't work on $othersql so you get forced dependencies.

You could say MySQL used their clout to try and force their world vision of dominance. This wouldn't be far from the truth.
User interfaces have gone backwards decades in quality.

Look at your car radio in a 90's car. You didn't need to look at it to figure out how to push the radio button, turn the volume, anything. You could even adjust the bass on the fly with a bass knob instead of navigating to your "eq" menu to do it.

Now, you've got to look away from the road, realize what "mode" your in, you can move the menu around to the "audio" section, then "fm", then select a channel. And of course, it's a touch screen so there's no tactile feedback. But at least it's got PRETTY ANIMATIONS!

My Toyota Corolla will blast audio out of the speakers as it boots but the volume knob doesn't respond till it completely boots up. So you may start the car and have 5-10 seconds of blasting radio that you can do nothing about. GREAT JOB GUYS. A volume knob that needs to boot.

This is what was considered not only acceptable, but a "Feature" in a modern vehicle with hundreds of millions of dollars in investment and NOBODY thought to see if the radio interface was actually... efficient? It's not like people interact with the radio/music console in a car on a regular basis...

Or my 2001 Jetta. It was one of the earlier cars with "climate control". What that actually means is that to set it to heat, you have to tap the "plus temp" button a literal 20-30 times to get it into "HI" to force heat on. And then the day warms up and on your drive home you want AC? Tap it 20-30 times on the "minus temp" button. There was no knob for AC temp. They gave you 1 degree precision on a car that couldn't guarantee 10 degree temperatures. Additionally, the volume control for the car had digital buttons. That's right. Enjoy pressing up/down 50 times. No ability to rapidly change volume. So when you switch radio stations or to casette/cd and the volume is highly different you have to sit there pressing the button over and over. But, even then, at least these were BUTTONS that you didn't have to look away from the road to use. They had little tactile notches on them so you could feel around for them.

"Personal experience and insight would also be appreciated"

Personal experience:

I never learned how to set up DNSSEC. It was a moving target at the time I became interested in DNS and as we know it has never been easy to set up. I did learn how to set up DNSCurve though.

Insight:

I have no great insight. Around 2008 when the BIND "experts" acknowledged the problems with forgery and started pushing DNSSEC again, I stopped using shared caches. I switched to local dnscache only. Hence I see never had any need for DNSSEC.

Today I do not even use a local cache. I only use /etc/hosts and local authoritative servers, tinydns and nsd. This is mainly for speed and availability. To gather DNS data, I created a "nonrecursive resolver". It beats the speed of a cold cache.
Building a HTTP/2 server with Node using no external modules
Hopefully you can spread discussion about ethics enough to where engineers can make these decisions even before joining the companies.

I imagine many of us would _not_ want to work at a multi-level marketing outfit, considering how they mostly all work through exploitation. By having these discussions we can make sure that companies with dubious ethics will have an even harder time recruiting.

There was a story a couple years back about a guy who wanted to form a "white supremacist village" in the countryside, and couldn't get anybody to join him. You talk enough about something, and it does have effects eventually (even if only temporary).
i think it is not real.
I recently had an amazon delivery person submit that they had delivered my package even though they hadn’t. Prompting me to go through the stolen package process, only to find the package on my doorstep a couple days later. Definitely don’t want that dude in my apartment.
I didn't say legislate; my workplace health insurance plan charges me less if they detect I'm using the gym plan they pay for and my blood tests show I'm not smoking. I have the option of paying more per month if I don't want to participate in these wellness activities.

Internalize the economic externalities. You can lead an unhealthy life if you want, but you should pay for it.

I mean, it's a free way to have a persistent internet address, which is interesting.

I think this was all trash talk, nothing but an attempt to intimidate. If companies are following letters of the law then it doesn't matter who thinks/interprets what. and they better know they would be challenged in court of law.
Yeah, sorry, but that tweet is an implicit threat. What does he mean by "won't be around much longer"? The fact that you can even ask that question means it's implicit.

Twitter: Employee ‘inadvertently’ deactivated Trump’s account
The point is they said it was explicit, but it wasn't.
>Every software engineer I’ve worked with has had a strong sense of personal values and ethics, but the organizations we work for can take actions that are at odds with these. I’d like to highlight a few of the key challenges you’ll face and provide feedback for living your personal values. Most importantly, it’s critical that you think about the impact of your work and consciously set your personal values in advance of inevitable future challenges.

I'd agree with this assessment of developers. However I've come into these exact moral dilemmas myself in the line of working for various companies doing web programming. How did I resolve them? By making the decision that affected my own bottom line favorably. When looked at in isolation, it's impossible for a single developer to say no to the incentives of doing "evil" work. It won't be until the field of software engineering really matures and develops a set of standards bodies like other professions that engineers will have some sort of protection. Physicians can refuse to perform a procedure they're told to in the name of protecting their medical license. A software engineer should likewise be held to the same standard.

I have no idea. I am not an American. Merely pointing out that he is not a citizen, which grandparent comment vaguely suggested that he was.
Are you saying you prefer giant try catch blocks everywhere? I don't know python so not sure about how exceptions are handled there. I've switched from c# to go and in total I prefer go's style of error handling. The built in error type is lacking but there are plenty of packages that fill in the gaps.
Starting from Node.js 8.7.0, you can build a fully featured HTTP/2 server using just the Node core. You can use advanced features like HTTP/2 PUSH and Node also exposes a compatibility API with HTTP/1.1 to easily migrate your application to HTTP/2.
And THANK YOU to all of you who believed in Gratipay enough to freely give and receive $1.1 million over the past five years—all of the companies (MaxCDN, andyet, Stripe, Balanced, Digital Ocean, COS, Khan Academy, Klarna, Heroku, Crate.io, etc., etc.), the individuals (chrisdev, ncoghlan, adambrault, bruceadams, campadrenalin, jedgar, rdegges, therabidbanana, etc., etc. etc.), the open source projects and programmers (alexpott, DrupalCoreTeam, jmervine, bundler, jeresig, substack, zzzeek, bbatsov, mitsuhiko, kennethreitz, ericholscher/RtD, etc., etc.), and, yes, even the provocateurs (it's not your fault we didn't manage our community well).

Thanks for giving us a shot. Sorry it didn't work out. Best of luck!
No you are not missing anything, its just if you want to understand how and what we have done. And how we want the further development to proceed, thus contacting us would become inevitable.
No, the ideal of free speech is that you should get to express yourself, and I should get to express myself. Through discussion we may gain common understanding and benefit. We can discover unfamiliar perspectives, debate ideas, and figure out meaningful truths. We both will also appreciate the opportunity to have our thoughts heard - whatever they may be.

Stopping speech because you dislike the speaker, or disagree with what's being said is the antithesis of this ideal.

Again, of course Twitter legally could ban Trump. Doing so would not be in keeping with the ideal of free speech.
No one is arguing that onion links are impervious to being lied about. But domain names don't have that property either. In fact, it's somewhat easier to compromise many domain names.
Funny how that's around the time of the supposed cognitive revolution.
If I was doing brand new development somewhere I'm sure I'd use Postgresql, since from a developer point of view it's the most consistent and flexible. While for the last few years I've worked way more with MySQL / MariaDB and at the moment the MySQL side of things is a bit more familiar to me, I still appreciate PG's vastly superior query planner and index features. Certainly in the SQLAlchemy world when i want to see how a database does something "correctly", Postgresql is where you go to see the "correct" way to do something (such as, the correct answer for "SELECT NULL IN (SELECT 1 WHERE 1=0)" - the answer is false, not NULL, or when I had to convince MariaDB developers, who just added real CHECK constraints in 10.2, that I should be able to drop a column that has a single-column CHECK constraint on it without first dropping the constraint, PG serves as the canonical example for "yes this is supposed to work").

I'm personally a little annoyed at PG's efforts to turn SQL into half an OO programming language (see http://ledgersmbdev.blogspot.com/2012/08/postgresql-or-model... for examples), but for selfish reasons; features like these are meant as replacements for what you get from a tool like SQLAlchemy Core and the unusual syntaxes they have are also really hard to implement yet I continually get asked to implement more of them. These aren't reasons I wouldn't use Postgresql it's just this little cloud of "ugh" that hangs over me when I really have to dig into PG :).

It also makes me cringe a bit the way Postgresql spawns a child process on the server for every database connection still. MySQL has very cheap connections and that's still a pretty compelling reason to keep it in mind for some kinds of applications (applications called Openstack which eat up thousands of connections...).

In the closed source world, MS SQL Server has really been getting a lot easier to use and I'm very impressed at their linux version, I have it running in docker and it is 100% exactly the same as the windows version as far as SQL / client interaction. None of this "MySQL default casing conventions are OS-dependent" stuff (see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/identifier-case-sens... , and prepare to be amazed what hacky cruft still lives on within the MySQL ecosystem).
We are using a ton of them to create 3D heads up display camera overlays. They are too slow with GL software rendering.

That's not why its future is threatened.

1. It's low oil/gas/energy prices and the fact that it looks like we are in for a low energy price environment for a decade or two.

2. Tesla, just their sister company solar city was built entirely on government subsidies. Those look to be going away.

3. They are hemorrhaging money.

Tesla is this decades Prius on steroids. Except that tesla doesn't have toyota's best selling sedans, tacoma trucks or their luxury lexus buttressing their foray into clean cars.

Remember when everyone thought that prius would take over the world?

The Race to Cut Auto Chip Costs
Most of the colors on that display have a rationale. For example, on the speed tape on the left, the white, green, and yellow colors all map to colors of a standard airspeed indicator. That the course (CRS) is green instantly tells me I'm navigating by a ground-based VOR, not GPS (which would be magenta). Same with the green diamond on the right by the altitude indicator. The waypoints at the top are all GPS-calculated, therefore also magenta. At the top, the green radio frequency is the one you'll transmit on. The blue airport icons in the Nearest page (bottom left) indicate towered airports (matching those found on standard aeronautical charts).

I've used gspread a few times to automate generating reports.

Twitter employee on last day of job deactivated Trump’s account
I hate wikileaks, but I honestly don't see the contradiction in Twitter's behavior on this point.

Perhaps they were naive on whether RT was actually an aperture of Russian intelligence services. OK. Their KYC game could use some upping. OTOH, would anyone be surprised if the CIA were paying some little hedge fund somewhere to let them piggyback on access to Twitter's feed?

As far as Wikileaks' uninhibited operation goes, as far as I can tell, the CIA has not had its account banned from Twitter, just its firehose access. Does Wikileaks have access to that? What would they do with it if they did?

I mean it just seems like the line of questioning is, "Hey is it fair that you let them do X and won't let us do Y?" Maybe I can't see it because my silicon valley ass has no ethics.

I mean steroids mostly cover this already.

You get cardiovascular benefits from drugs like anadrol which increase hgc.

Steroids are used for muscle preservation in burn victims, I bieve it's anavar but could be wrong on that.

On some steroids you can eat thousands of calories and not gain fat. Trenbolone is one which is quite popular for that and is used to get lean and dry.

Now are they safe? Not in any large or prolonged dosage.

Aging is another which people look to HGH and other similar growth hormones. Run in small doses 2-4iu a day you'll see a lot of benefits without the weird side effects.
Right, they’re notable exceptions to a trend, aka outliers.
