Seriously, this piece assumes everything will be exactly like it is now except everything that can be automated will be automated.

It does however have some really pretty vaporwave illustrations so I guess there's that in its favor. I'd listen to an album that had most of those drawings as the cover art.
Also first time since IPO that it's above the IPO price. Right on time for the first employees to cash out.

Everybody wins!
Of course not consistently. Just, if something becomes conventional wisdom in investing all of a sudden, there might be contrarian opportunities for a little while.
If they had a weirdly large supply you can be guaranteed an army of recruiters from FB, Amazon, Google et al would be lining up at campuses the way they do in India.

The only limitation these firms face in growing faster is getting their hands on talent.
This asks for $35 to read the article, to save other non-academics the click.
Anyway, we're really geting far off topic. I guess I'm replying too :)

Heh, I'm here to have interesting conversation, not necessarily on-topic conversation. :P

Why is reinstalling an OS a solution to a rooted OS
but re-flashing ME/AMT isn't?

The issue is that it looks to me like there's no equivalent to "reinstalling the OS", since the non-SPI route for flashing the ME is an ME function. That's why I used windows update as an example - flashing new ME code is less "boot from install media and reinstall" and more "sudo dpkg -i new-kernel.deb" or "run windows update". And if the ME is compromised - dpkg/winup in this analogy - it could easily propagate itself to the new firmware. Since at least some of the vulnerabilities are in bootloader code that's stored in ROM, it may be flat-out impossible to prevent the ME from compromising the new image if it's running while you're flashing - IOW, time to crack the case and find the SPI headers.

Also, really, reinstalling the OS is a solution to a rooted OS only almost all of the time - a truly determined infection can lodge endospores in places like GPUs and hard drive controllers. They just don't do that kind of thing because the spectacular range of PC hardware makes that capability cost-ineffective. If they can find something like that for the ME, or if they don't even have to because they control the only way to update firmware and it's the same on every intel system, that's a much higher-value target.
> This is not the correct comparison.

I think comparing the code quality of the AMT to that of another OS is a fair comparison, given that the current-gen AMT is running a modified version of MINIX[1].

Would you let a third party pay for your salary?
> How would that work for offices that send non PHI emails?

They could encrypt those emails as well. While sending a non-encrypted email that contains PHI is a problem, sending an encrypted email that doens't contain PHI shouldn't be an issue (as long as the intended recipient can decrypt it, which they should).

> How hard would it be to shut down and create a new email for each employee that left, etc.

That comes down to revoking the certificate or using shorter intervals for the duration where the certificate is considered valid. For example, if the organization requires that one changes their password every 60 days, then a certificate should not have more than a 60 day period where it's valid.

> Would you have to have a special email server just for PHI and another for regular?

This wouldn't be server dependent. This would be dependent on the email client handling the encryption and decryption. The more that's automated, the less chance that there's a mistake with regards to email containing PHI.

> Also, physicians themselves rarely send emails, they have office assistants do it. They are busy providing care.

Physicians have to do all sorts of things like writing progress notes, dictating admission and discharge summaries, calling in prescriptions, writing orders, etc. The system they use could also be used to securely send PHI containing email to other physicians, pharmacists, or hospital systems.

But regulation could be a good incentive against physicians allowing others to use their account credentials to do things like sending PHI information to other organizations. No physician would like to be summoned by the board of medicine of the state they're licensed in over something like that.

But I think that a lot of the problems could be addressed by those who have cross-domain knowledge about technology and health-care (speaking as someone who went through medical school and subsequently changed fields to computer science/software development).
Expensive things may not be a bad thing
There are definitely petawatt class lasers currently (ex. the Texas petawatt). I think most are of order 100 fs.
Within a month or so of signing up with Twitter I got to watch someone I followed live tweet themselves running from their house as someone else was live tweeting that they were coming to attack/kill them.

Because the person I followed tweeted a joke.

That was YEARS ago. Obviously it’s left and indelible mark on how I think about these things.

I’m with you. It continues to amaze me that people seem to see this stuff as acceptable status quo. I don’t know if it’s because they were in a group that isn’t being attacked, or they haven’t had friends attacked, or they think they’re safer whatever reason.

What goes on… just the worst of it not even the ‘basic’ racist insults and such… is rather horrifying.

But in even the most obvious cases Twitter and others refuse to do anything. I’d say the courts are our only hope but I don’t see them being able to catch up. By the time you track someone down and prosecute them it’s been far too many years and the problematic behaviors have continued from that person and others.

It does feel a lot like a Pandora’s box.
I doubt anyone in the silicon valley believes that.

Most large tech companies have engineering centers in India doing real work and there are quite a few Indian expats here doing serious engineering work.

I think the reputation you describe comes specifically from the low-cost IT outsourcing firms. My personal experience reflects this. I've managed and worked with large teams in India that did great work. My experiences with outsourcing firms haven't been as good.
I should donate to every project on github in case I need to use one somewhere in the future!
One of the articles linking from this one (https://qz.com/964843/less-than-5-of-india-engineers-are-cut...) made me laugh:

> More than two-thirds of the candidates from the top 100 universities in the country were able to write “compilable code,” or that which does not throw errors when compiled into machine-readable code.

I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean? Most devs make typos or errors when writing new code at some point; the compiler spits out the reason (or your IDE helpfully points it out), you go back and fix it.

> One reason for the poor performance is the dearth of good instructors as well as misaligned college curriculums. “The school curriculum focusing on MS-Word, Powerpoint, Excel, etc., rather teaching programming using elementary languages such as Basic and Logo is also the culprit,” said Varun Aggarwal, the co-founder and chief technology officer at Aspiring Minds.

Basic and Logo? What in the world?
> Or are we to believe that stereotypes all come from nothing?

This is a false dilemma. Stereotypes come from something, sure - but they don't necessarily come from accurate characteristics of the race. They may come from one of the many cultures that makes up the race. (As a child of immigrants from south India whose family has been Christian longer than Europe has been Christian, I have some opinions on your conflation of race and culture.) They may come from some particular subculture that happens to be interacting with the people forming the stereotype. They may come from what is essentially propaganda - national myths, folklore, religious traditions, etc. that reflected an older culture that people find useful to claim an identification with, but may not accurately represent any people. They may come from propaganda by the people forming the stereotype, as in the case of the "model minority" stereotype in the US. They may come from the reaction of the culture or the race to living under oppression by the people forming the stereotype, and not reflect the natural tendencies of the people if given their freedom. (For instance, the stereotype of Jews as greedy can be traced pretty directly to the old Christian prohibition - now seemingly forgotten - on lending money with interest, which left the profitable and necessary job of banking essentially reserved for whatever visible non-Christian cultural minority happened to be in Europe, regardless of any traits of that culture other than happening not to have such a prohibition.) They may come from accurate traits of the race or culture from a generation or two ago that are no longer accurate. There are lots of options here that you seem to be dismissing.

Boosting is something that can be done in all sizes of weapons. It just means adding some hydrogen into the primary fission device, as simple as filling the otherwise hollow pit/core. When you read about "dial a yield" technology, that is about adding or removing the boosting hydrogen from the primary. Vent it off and you get a lower yield.
There is research about reframing arguments for a given topic in terms of values that are highly important to a given political ideology[1]. In short, there are priors of deeply-held values that can reliably predict a political stance. With this you can potentially convince those opposed to an action on grounds of some aspect of it (be it perceived masculinity of actor, or religious reasons) to reconsider the action from a familiar perspective by reframing the argument in terms of the audience's most deeply-respected values (e.g. purity, masculinity, patriotism).

So, any recommend blog?
Seems like one of those things where reason didn't get you to where you are, so reason won't get you out of it. People tend to have an emotional reaction to a person telling them to do something they already should be doing. Maybe tech can help. Here an example of what I'm talking about.

Consider coupling Anki[0] with one of the many existing German decks out there[1].

I've been using it for Spanish[2] and I've found it to work extremely well. It has somewhat brought back my interest after Duolingo became repetitive.

It goes up and down like a yoyo. Always has done.
Right. But if I have to plug something in, then I might as well just use a cheap phone. Color display, full browser, touchscreen, sensors, etc. For twice as much money as this kit, I get a lot more value.

You do all of the above. First you go to O365. Then you put your AD and ADFS in the cloud as a DR. Then you target other things where DR is useful.

After that, you opportunistically move stuff as it makes sense. Then squeeze every provider of software and services, and pick off the stragglers by moving to cloud/SaaS.
And it stops there after a short suggestion. Maybe it's time for "behavioral medicine" a la behavioral finance. We already know people aren't going to listen (they statistically don't) so how else can we tell them in ways that they will listen.
Bullshit. Tech companies are not competing for worldwide talents. The companies you quote have at most 3 offices in Europe: London, Zurich, Dublin. The first thing a recruiter will tell you is to abandon your life and your family.
I'm not sure users would understand what they are being asked. Plus, whenever someone wants to do something dangerous in the browser, they say "Oh, we will ask the user". If everyone got their way, users would be inundated with dialogs.
Those few and far between opportunities is what the consistently great investors shoot for. I think I might agree with Warren Buffet and his view of investing. If you are a professional investor, patience and rare (every few years) big bets when things look very good. Otherwise, full market index funds.
Do Flagged posts fall under "Recently deleted posts"?
It's very far from "poor" when IT industry is concerned :).
While pay rate is obviously lower vs US it's higher or on par with most EU countries. So for say Senior Java Dev (the pay is much more dependent on a stack vs US) making 66K - 72K which would be about half of what same person would be making in US (outside of SV), but tax rate will be around 3% vs 30% and cost of living is a fraction of what it is in US. When I was living in Ukraine my disposable income was like most of my salary vs in US it's a small fraction of my salary.
This is always the proposed answer whenever someone wants to introduce X potentially insecure API. It is lazy IMO. It requires the potentially uninformed user to make a critical decision. Plus, if we introduced every insecure-but-we-prompt API proposed, the user would be inundated with prompts and it would reduce their productivity.
I think it is an improvement, though.

American society had an excuse, before. Racists weren't tolerated, but also weren't confronted. They were allowed to gather power so long as they did so quietly, and decent people could pretend that there wasn't a problem. Now, at least, the internet has made the problem impossible to ignore. A disease which is never diagnosed can never be treated.
Well, if you take the view that persisting any representation of information from one spacetime event [0] to another is “communication”, then pretty much any physical process is “communication”. But then the term kinda starts to lose its meaning.

>but yes, the price we pay for the internet is that it acts as a force multiplier for all collective human intent, good and evil

I disagree, I think that we can (and should) do everything we can to mitigate that evil. If Tumblr and Twitter didn't half-ass their ToS, we wouldn't have kids killing themselves because they got doxed and sent death threats. Websites don't need to be complete anarchist societies; I think many social media sites are morally obligated to follow up on their ToS and not just let everything go to shit because their AI thought what is clearly a credible terrorist threat is perfectly fine (this has actually happened to me on Facebook).

We have platforms where people can cause harm, but we also have the ability to properly moderate these platforms, the internet doesn't just have to be a bunch of thinly veiled 4chan-esque shitholes, we have the responsibility to make sure these extremely popular platforms aren't just letting people ruin each other's lives.

The Austrian school most certainly does not align with modern mainstream economics.
All fusion research has some relevance to weapons. If you are studying ignition, how to get fusion going, that is at the heart of research into building smaller thermonuclear devices. If you study containment, that is useful to increasing the efficiencies of weapons. Fire is fire.

WebRTC uses DTLS, not TLS, so I don't think it would be useful for determining TLS compatibility.
I banned the account last night because it's probably a spammer trying to build up account karma by pasting quotes from other articles. Here's another one you can Google: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16013540.

Spammers adopted this technique in the last couple years. A favorite method is to find a Reddit thread on the same topic and paste comments from there into HN.

A side benefit of this method is that when we ban accounts that do it, it looks like we're suppressing perfectly innocent commenters. Can you believe the abusive mods! HN is rife with censorship!
This is what I like to see from the folks, a bit of gumption! Take some of that gumption, use it to learn a smidgeon about the technology you use every day, and steer it whichever way you want it to go! Take a look at those companies doing annoying crap, and compete against them!

Oh too hard for ya? Well by default that kind of means you're content to let someone else be in charge and to remain a hapless piece of passive audience meat, who takes whatever's dished-out to you. Though it would be nicer for everybody around you if you'd do that more quietly.

Help the homeless! Great idea! It should dovetail nicely with your current efforts. Wait what's that you say, that's tech's job? You're too busy making the Toyota payment and doing pottery in the basement? Too busy paying for a basement you don't need, in a subdivision nobody cares about, so you can do pottery in it?

Even so, it's good you're finally kicking tech out of the house. I didn't say anything that whole time you were spending every waking moment paying attention to tech, coddling tech, worshipping tech, making tech into the spoiled monster it is today. I just hope you can follow through. Your request for the WiFi instructions doesn't bode well, or indicate a lot of conviction, or speak much to your usefulness as a role model or a man. A real grown-up would say "no tech" and that would mean "no tech" and they wouldn't go asking for the WiFi instructions like a lil' bitch!
I just took a quick look at it and I don't think so. I think it's basically just a script that provisions a new digitalocean instance via the DO api, installs dependencies, and builds/installs/runs the program.
LHR has more than one runway.
There's no such thing as an account whose comments can't be vouched for. Nor is it true that there are many dead new accounts, if by 'dead' you mean 'banned'. But it is true that software filters sometimes kill comments by new accounts. That's not software that we want to have to run, or write, but it's necessary because of past abuses by trolls.
I'm not dismissing what you're saying, and the fact that you're assuming that I'm just dismissing you is ridiculous. You're just assuming that because I don't immediately reject the discussion of stereotypes, that I'm some racist. It's just not true.

I'm really sad about the state of HN nowadays. Anyone not PC is downvoted incessantly. This is just another example of a vocal minority drowning out the silent majority on the internet sites that is contributing to our cultural extremism in our country. Not everyone with differing opinions from you is a racist.
>but assuming that so called home countries brains only can do serious engineering is quite short sighted.

I don't think thats the point he's trying to make. The Indian IT industry was designed and built for a certain type of labor/outsourcing market. It will take serious investment and attitude shift internally for local startups to grow and retain talent. Much of that talent that is able to perform the serious engineering you describe continually leave the country for the U.S. and other markets.
This blew my mind. Thank you for posting this!
I did not downvote you, nor have I called you racist. I attempted to engage you in reasoned argument, and you are unwilling to engage in debate. Other people are not downvoting you because you're "not PC", they're downvoting you because you're not making cogent arguments, and anyone not making cogent arguments should be drowned out by cogent arguments.

There is no way they get 200-300 subscriptions from a social news story. Their own self published data does not support this.

Per the research I just did, 2PW has been done for one picosecond, 10PW is being built. Apparently because of the very very short pulse, the energy required is trivially small (as in less than a light bulb in your house for an hour)
