Fuck you very much, figuratively.

People arguing that "literally" is "now accepted" to actually mean figuratively are the whole fucking problem. When stupid people use words this poorly, language ceases to have any fucking meaning.

Try using 'literally' to mean 'figuratively' in a court of law and let me know how it works out.
This feature is almost certainly the key reason Venmo became successful.
I don't think such an admission necessarily follows. It has always been possible for determined criminals to invest enough time and caution to make their communications prohibitively expensive to intercept. The vast majority do not do so. Everyone (criminals included!) have to make decisions about the tradeoffs in time, effort, and convenience they're willing to make for security. Changing the default level of security enabled out of the box on commercial devices changes that calculus. It's possible to simultaneously believe that the FBI should not surveil normal citizens all the time, criminals do have the ability to secure their communications to an arbitrary degree if they make the effort, and the default level of security your iPhone provides should be less than "requires nation-state level resources in order to comply with a lawful search warrant."
If you're looking for a quicker summary of what's happening, there's a write up on r/cyberpunk[0] that was posted 3 days ago. There's a very specific flavor to the subreddit and the comments on that write up that might be satisfying for those that appreciate cyberpunk.

If it wasn't immediately evident, this is very NSFW.

>The GDPR applies extraterritorially.

Yeah. Good luck with that.

It'll work for the big, entrenched companies like Facebook who couldn't bear to be without its UK customers, for example. But I don't see the EU successfully going after every little dot-com startup from Alabama to Angola, many of them in jurisdictions that barely have a functioning legal system, let alone respect for EU law.

If such extraterritorial enforcement was actually possible, there would be no 419 scammers.

If that's the case, it looks like the chip has a surprisingly modern feature set. For example, based on this article[1], the RSC on which the RAD6000 was based had an on-chip memory controller in 1992.

It also had a branch predictor, however, this line is notable:

> Note that the RSC never speculatively executes prefetched instructions.

This means that the branch predictor only did fetch/decode, and so the chip would not have been susceptible to Spectre, as the pipeline would have been flushed and the correct instructions reloaded as soon as the condition evaluated false, before the branch would have been actually executed.

> David Metzler's series "Ridiculously Huge Numbers"[1] is a good introduction to this. It goes rather well beyond puny little integers like Graham's number.

Yes, David Metzler's series is great and, I would say, essential viewing if your interest in large numbers is piqued.

While he doesn't go through some of the big numbers talked about her (TREE(3), SCG(13), etc), he gives an excellent explanation of the fast-growing hierarchy. This is really the closest thing we have to a 'standardized' way of comparing the sizes of very large numbers.

I would also recommend Giroux Studios' 'Extremely Large Numbers'[1], which takes a similar style to Metzler's videos and goes further with the fast-growing hierarchy. (Does something called 'infinite collapsing functions' sound interesting...?)

That may be true, but it doesn’t mean customers are going to use it. The fact that millions of 20-30 year olds in the USA tell each other “Venmo me” is quite a bit of inertia to overcome.

Then again, perhaps Zelle will capture the non 20-30 demographic, which is presumably quite large. Most 20-30 year olds have both their banking app(s) and Venmo installed, whereas many in the 30+ demographic have only their banking app.

In the 30+ demographic, Zelle is a new entrant to the “peer-to-peer payments” market, and has a first-mover advantage. Since this demographic is not as intimately familiar with p2p payments as the 20-30 demographic, Zelle has the opportunity to concept of peer-to-peer payments. That is, Zelle has a clear playing field in the battle for the “tipping-point” mindshare required to solidify its first-mover advantage in certain markets.

It would be interesting to map the “real” human social graph, and then overlay app usage onto it.
There are always facts particular to each case. That's why arguments can continue forever -- there is always some mitigating factor you can point to that makes your side OK.

But if you are objective about it you would probably come to the conclusion that conservative political viewpoints or support will hurt you in the SF area, but even radical liberal viewpoints will not.

The prop was, by any measure, mainstream at the time. It may have been on the wrong side of history, but remember that even Obama expressed a lack of support for gay marriage in the past.

Any political issue seems like the most important thing in the world if you look closely enough and lose perspective. Let's move on. Any political position even close to the mainstream should not cost you your job unless you are a politician. But political stuff, for the most part, should not take over the workplace either.

For sure! After years of running a personal mail server with a setup similar to what's described in the article, I moved to using a pre-built docker setup and haven't looked back: https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver

The easiest way to get this type of VM setup going is to start up the container on your mail host with all of the fun features (filters mostly) turned off, verify that the new mail container works as expected, then slowly start turning on features one by one so that if you happen to break something with a bad configuration you know how to roll back to a configuration that is functional.
How we retreat as a remote team
This is totally anecdotal, but I (and apparently many other people online) have had pretty terrible experiences with Zelle, moreso than I've noticed with other fintech services.

A family member tried to send me money, which used to work perfectly fine via the bank's older transfer methods (including PopMoney), but once the bank switched to Zelle they somehow lost the transaction completely because my bank had yet to integrate with it.

Zelle's app and help pages were terrible and directed me to create an account and download the app to get the money out. I did that and the money was still nowhere to be found. The bank customer service wouldn't touch it because it was Zelle's fault, and my family member apparently had to wait on hold for an extremely long time with Zelle to get it sorted out and get the money back in their account. I can only imagine how much of a nightmare that could have been for less financially-secure or tech-forward people.
>It feeds into the suspicion many have that many (most? all?) large Chinese companies are effectively controlled by the Chinese government.

All is the correct answer. Just like it's not legal to own property in China, all companies are ultimately owned and controlled by the Chinese government. They have shiny, pretty, Western-looking front ends to attract foreign investment, but from a strictly legal standpoint, they're all owned by the government.

For some reason people forget that China is still a communist country. Nothing's changed other than it's gone from exporting rice to exporting phones.
I would say that's because Eastern Europe has changed, to the better, and ironically in some regard because of his previous contributions. When Eastern Europe was still largely communist, his ideas of government and society (even if you don't subscribe entirely to them) were much better than the systems in place at the time. So of course everyone loved him.

Nowadays with much of Eastern Europe having pretty decent democratic societies (lots of problems still and the Russian influence has grown a lot lately) his ideas aren't seen as a pure "positive" contribution but more like a variation with its own pros and cons of the systems already in place.

Personally (like I said elsewhere in the thread) I own much of my professional life to one of his foundations and as such in my book he is a hero and a person that had a huge positive contribution on my life.
That's a great idea, we'll definitely look into it!

Wow, this is incredible. So many interpret their statement as either "all white men are bigoted and should be fired" or "all the white bigots must be fired but the other bigots can stay". That literally never occurred to me. Why is that? Occam's razor. Benefit of the doubt. Common sense.

Not only that, but they said as much after the fact. I believe them. Why don't more here believe them?

They would have to be a complete idiot radical for those quoted interpretations to be what they meant.
Having run both Exim and Postfix, I would highly recommend you run Postfix, if not for the security for the configuration.

It's a fairly safe prediction. Most large companies eventually make a strategic error (like missing a disruptive innovation) that eventually leaves them bankrupt, acquired, or just irrelevant. For hard data look at the Fortune 500 today versus 50 years ago. How many companies have maintained leadership versus how many are just gone? Sure there are always exceptions and Google and Facebook may beat the odds, but that would be a risky bet.

"suggests that readers really altered their preferences to avoid being seen with a physical romance novel" I don't think that is necessarily what is happening, at least not primarily. People who read romance novels tend to read a lot of them, so I think that simply reducing the friction of purchase and allowing you to buy it and then immediately read it has more to do with the appeal.

As much as I think the action is commendable I have my questions about the role of an email client in today's market

Maybe they should think about how to make a mobile version of it. Still a mail client is a "solved problem". Most of email's problems are behind the client, not on it (like spam control)
If you are no more likely to lose money day trading than you are to make money, then it's not wasting money.
I use both Venmo and Zelle (through BOA). Zelle gets used by me for "real" transfers that are recurring or large one-offs. The large one-offs I still confirm in advance, because people can have multiple bank accounts and not know where their email/phone is linked. (I think it's the last one setup).

For anything small or group-related, I use Venmo. Largely because everyone (that I've ever exchanged $ with) in my social group uses it, and it's quick and easy. Examples include: food splitting, having one person buy event tickets and paying them back, airbnb/party costs, and fantasy football due collection.

So I agree, Venmo is going to be tough to overcome, I don't see anyone in my group switching to Zelle anytime soon. Zelle would have to do a lot of marketing to even get people to understand that they can do it. I was skeptical the first time I sent money with Zelle and the only reason I tried it was because BoA replaced their transfers with it.

Every programmer wants remote unless otherwise stated.

Work Remotely. Salary. Benefits. Software Stack. Chill Boss. That is what matters.

Just about anything else the startups have to offer is categorized as "meta". Not helping things ship.

Devs don't care about "culture". What does that mean? Mandatory stand-ups, weekly 2-hour meetings, signalling "values", and these group photos where everybody forces a smile? (You haven't exited. What is there to celebrate about?)

They don't want the politics. Colleagues trying to justify why they're there, instead of being in a conscience frame of mind to better the company. Anything else not helping the product to market (shipping), gaining users, and retaining them.

The requirement of "on-site", unless there's a legit reason, has become a red flag that invokes an image of a boss in a suit, reclining in their Aeron chair, that's an insecure, yapping, "expert beginner" micro manager who won't heed technical advice; a bozo.

So what makes a "Chill Boss" for programmers? A correlation worth testing is greater software development experience than employees. As opposed to just having a history going straight into management soon as possible.

It is kind of like the thread I have seen a few times that does something like

>Damore didn't say women are inferior

>> Quotes Damore "I'm simply stating that the distribution of preferences and abilities of men and women differ in part due to biological causes and that these differences may explain why we don't see equal representation of women in tech and leadership."
>> See he clearly called them inferior.

>>> No he didn't he just said they were different.

Two people see the same sentence and draw very different conclusions. We can either adopt a norm of honoring what the writer intended or a norm of honoring what the reader observed. I think a lot of people who are most vocally pro-diversity use the later norm when determining if something is or isn't ????ist. If this is the norm I think it should be universally the norm. Thus if we are being charitable to the writer I agree with you that the interpretation should be "We should fire all of the bigots (who happen to be white men)" and not "We should fire all the white men (who are bigots)."

This is a really hard principle to apply consistently which is why I tried to highlight the same kind of statement that was racist instead of sexist. In hopes that people could understand why white men might take offense to the original comment.

Hope the explanation helps.
