The point is - how does Instagram know you should be re-invited if you are deleted? If you are really deleted, they shouldn't know you were ever a member.
Great to see some movement here!
oooh! I can respond to this one!
What should you put on your resume?
A resume is ultimately a marketing doc (selling you). What you should put is things that sell you well for the specific job you are looking for.

1 - Really clear name, email and phone at the top. Also get a professional email instead of joedude234@hotmail.com. Something like name@yoursite.com

2 - A clear bio/subtitle.
It can be simple as Back End Developer. But so many people leave out and as resume reader I have to parse your entire resume to "get" what you do.

3. Experience in the following format
Job Title (sell you, not the company first)
Company
Dates
Location (highly optional)

3-5 Well written bullets of your impact for each job. In Metric + Time format.

* Increased sales by 40% in 6 months by redesigning sign up flow.

Don't use a lot of buzz words. Keep it short, scannable and positive.

I would list at least 3 jobs if possible.

Education
Your Degree (Bachelor of Arts)
School
Dates
Any specific wins at school.

Skills
A list of skills in order of your strongest. This is an easy one because the job you are interested probably has some if not all of these listed. Avoid putting too many skills (10 is good) and don't put obvious ones like Microsoft Office.

I run HireClub where we do resume reviews (I've done 1000+ reviews in my time) and have made a simple resume builder with a beautiful design. You can see my resume at https://hireclub.com/resumes/Kz2Nsrhp

In hiring a developer, the best thing I would want to see is launched projects I can actually use. Don't have one? Make one. I don't care if it's simple as todo list but I want to see and use something you actually coded.
The other thing is sample code in your preferred language. This should be a single class that is clear enough in its purpose but complex enough to see your coding style.

The best way to find a job is through referrals. 75% of hires happen through referrals. Only 15% happen through job sites. Your goal is to network and connect to folks that can vouch for you.

Brief (text editor)
"You'll be replaced by someone who is either ignorant of the problem, or isn't but doesn't care."

It costs companies time and money to replace people. So you'll be hitting their bottom line just by resigning.

They might not even be able to find someone to replace you, but if they do you might be replaced by someone who's not as effective.

When you move somewhere else, you could help a competitor that respects privacy, or maybe even start your own privacy-respecting company.

I think the person you were responding to was pointing out that it is almost certainly not the case that the various traits which we would describe as capacities are distributed evenly across races. As far as I can tell, they were not advocating for racially based policy.
I would imagine if what happened to facebook happened to google, it would be 100 times worse. So when do we tackle google?
One more: I could try out/ use the app on platforms for which it is currently unavailable, such as my iPad Pro (with large screen and stylus) or Samsung Note 8 (smaller screen but also a great stylus).

Someone mentioned the lack of web API for stylus, which is a huge gap right now. I expect that gap will be filled sooner or later. Indeed with WebUSB it should be possible to implement drivers for the plug-in Wacom style devices for the web right now. Since getting these two great devices I haven't plugged in my Wacom once though.

The lack of a really good vector app for Android (like Autodesk Graphic for iOS) is what made me curious to check out these comments and see what Krita is about.

Yes the web has extra overheads, but it is the cross platform runtime with the broadest reach.
Supply and demand. Turns out a lot of people want to develop games and are willing to be underpaid compared to other developers.

Either an overwhelmingly high amount of developers join a game developer union and raise salaries, or a company will simply hire someone else.

It's not just about events automatically appearing. First of all, I'm not sure of a way to do that without individually exporting events, maybe if I setup FB emails for events, I could get GMail to auto-add them, but I don't use GMail so it would take more setup to ingest invites automatically. But even then, there's no way to RSVP inside the calendar invite itself. The interface is opaque, they let you read their data, but not interact with it in a programmatic way despite it being _your_ friend network and _your_ event.
That's a pretty important semantic distinction -- are you enforcing ethical standards (and I don't think anyone can force somebody to be a good person), or are you enforcing laws or rules?

If the same association, in the fifties, excluded black members, would you say that the standards they were enforcing at the time were ethical?
SpaceX and Tesla has their FB pages for publicity. When they delete them, they get even more publicity, it seems. Is this a moral stand, or a publicity stunt?
I switched from gmail to zoho mail some years ago, when I frist got my own domain. Slowly moved logins etc. over time, but using my domain for all personal communication. Then at some point I switched to Fastmail, and as I owned the domain, did not have to do anything. Then a couple years ago I switched to gandi's mail because dollars became so costly that $30 was too much for me as a uni student. Today I do not have a use for my gmail, but I let it linger around because I need one for my android devices anyways. I was quite hopeful that Ubuntu Phone would be my next phone OS, but it let me down unfortunately. When I will be able to get rid of android, I'll remove my google account altogether.
I've only had two ICE cars for a significant length of time, and each time I had to replace failed fuel pumps, both times they were located in the gas tank. They certainly seem to wear out more than rarely to me.

For well-engineered EVs, batteries are definitely not a wear item. Especially in a large-battery (i.e. >200mile range) EV, the battery will easily last over 200,000 miles before significant degradation.

You'll be happy to know that actual battery lifetimes for properly-engineered long-range EVs are similar or better than a typical combustion engine (i.e. over a half a million miles). For instance:
https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-battery-life-80-percent-capa...
and
https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1112465_tesla-model-s-d...

I owned one ICE car for a short time that had its timing chain break, destroying the (interference) engine after just over 100,000 miles.

In a properly engineered long-range (>200 mile) EV, the battery is less of a wear item than the engine in a typical ICE car.
Also, you mentioned paying a opt-out payment. Spotify does have premium which removes the ads, is there any reason you don't like that?
You're conflating being a socialist with respecting privacy. Respect of privacy is an issue that cuts across the left/right divide. You could be a capitalist or communist, libertarian or socialist and still respect privacy. Organizing for change isn't limited to socialists either.
>I hope this platform dies, rather quickly. Because it harms society and individuals more than we are aware of.

I'm not deleting my account. I only signed up because I was using the Facebook API for something once and needed an account to test. Other than that, I occasionally post links to news, pictures (look at my food! look at this funny animal!), and I check on groups that I belong to, especially the trading ones. The groups are especially useful. I also only ever log in from a single place, my mobile.

It always amazes me how people use it. What did you think was going to happen to that data? How do you think a service as large as Facebook was paying it's bills? People don't need to stop using Facebook. They need to sit for a second and think about they are using it.

The scorched earth mentality says that if you're not in favor of gun-banning, you're pro-murder. If you're not in favor of policing all of your user-generated content instantaneously and at significant cost, then you are pro-childporn and pro-child-sexual-exploitation. When in fact, nothing could be further from the truth.

The form of this is a false equivalency (or perhaps the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy_of_composition): If you are pro-<activity that is only rarely engaged in by bad actors>, then you are pro-<activity that is ONLY done by bad actors>

The upshot of this will be ZERO startups that deal in user-generated content simply because they cannot afford the manpower or the liability. Which is a pretty bad consequence, IMHO.

This also creates a law open to abuse: If you have a corporate enemy that permits user-generated content, simply anonymously post some objectionable content to their site, take a screenshot, and then alert the authorities with the URL and screenshot. It's like SWATting, except on a whole 'nother level!

Is Giphy really to blame in this fiasco? How are they somehow more to blame than the person who actually posted this? (as they would be, after this law goes into effect) https://mashable.com/2018/03/10/snapchat-instagram-giphy-rac...

When I read that Drew rejected Jobs' offer I couldn't believe it. Big props for backing yourself and growing it larger than the offer.

If Jobs did succeed in acquiring Dropbox, it would have been shuttered and the tech would have been absorbed by the iCloud borg, depriving us from the Dropbox product.

Thanks for that!

Unless you’re offering a similarly objectionable issue with current ethical standards, you’re playing word games instead of a real argument.

Which is obnoxious.
You'd think that 9/11 fit the bill of being 'a new "Pearl Harbor"' nicely.
It's perfectly acceptable in social situations to get a number of friend from a friend to send them a text message or a phone call.

Well, Obama's policies were plenty controversial if people wanted to fight about politics.

You're also leaving out Guantanamo, assassination of American citizens without a trial, and the Fast and the Furious scandal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATF_gunwalking_scandal).
I'll admit to what feels like a pedantic point: Yes, the EU can make a law saying it'll be very very angry if a non-EU entity does not do what it wants. But since this post is asking about HN's compliance with the GDPR, it seems practical to scope the conversation to "Can the EU make and enforce a law that affects non-EU entities".

Otherwise, it's fair to say that I can personally draft a document saying HN must give me $3.50, and sign it into law for the House Of Akerl. But my law is quite uninteresting to HN, given the low odds of any of the YC folks sending me $3.50.
[On the Cforall team] For what it's worth, one of the features Cforall adds to C is RAII.

The exception implementation isn't done yet, but it's waiting on (limited) run-time type information, it already respects RAII.
In that investigation they seemed to place the blame more on sticky pedals and floor mats, not operator error.

That wasn't the final word, though. I believe this is what the GP was referring to:

> When NASA software engineers evaluated parts of Toyota’s source code during their NHTSA contracted review in 2010, they checked 35 of the MISRA-C rules against the parts of the Toyota source to which they had access and found 7,134 violations. Barr checked the source code against MISRA’s 2004 edition and found 81,514 violations.

...

> Their descriptions of the incredible complexity of Toyota’s software also explain why NHTSA has reacted the way it has and why NASA never found a flaw it could connect to a Toyota’s engine going to a wide open throttle, ignoring the driver’s commands to stop and not set a diagnostic trouble code. For one, Barr testified, the NASA engineers were time limited, and did not have access to all of the source code. They relied on Toyota’s representations – and in some cases, Toyota misled NASA.

It seems funny now looking at retrospective that neither Drew or Brandon said anything about syncing on Mobile. Congrats Dropbox!
Those of us who had nested functions/procedures and “procedural types” in Pascal (or Algol, but that’s beyond my experience) back in the day have :-)

Then K&R came, and took our nice toys away.

Fortunately, the GNU Pascal compiler needed nested subroutines, so they exposed the feature in their C compiler, as well.
There's a third way you didn't mention, and which replaces most uses of trait objects in practice: use an enum.
Intent is often used to interpret how a law should be applied.

The protesters intent was to protest, and the reporters intent was to publish journalism on the protest, on a matter of significant public interest too.

Many people have no problem seeing the difference.

In my opinion, neither group should be charged in this case, but certainly not the journalist.
I wonder if they just threw away data from three other control groups...
Did they bother to ask any C developers what the pain points are? The kernel, qemu, libvirt, coreutils and gnulib developers really use C and POSIX to breaking point, and have some real problems that might be addressed in the language, but I don't see much evidence of those problems being addressed here.

Did they study existing code bases and bugs to find out how applicable these changes are to fixing real problems?
Have you hosted it anywhere, that might be an interesting read.
The theory that a free press is required for a free society. Some laws/statues don't apply to journalists, or there are exemptions for journalists, and some laws explicitly protect journalists.

For the most part though, what protects journalists are the same laws that protect non-journalists. As journalists are involved in the judicial process, the finding of the courts are applied in a way that they would apply to anyone in that situation, not just journalists.

Another way to interpret this: the actions of a concerned citizen documenting people breaking the law. Example: If you saw a woman being chased by a man waving a knife in the air, and you started filming it, and they both ran into a building marked "PRIVATE - NO TRESPASSERS", should the person documenting this event simply wait outside? Or follow them in, at the very least to document what appears to be an attack, and potentially help? Would this person be charged with trespass? (IANAL, but you can see how regardless of a 'journalistic standard' these situations could become less than simple)

Swift Integration Traps
From the military's point of view, the public's willingness to support a war is at least as important as better planes and bombs. Every military parade and Blue Angels flyover are the military spending money to convince the public that war is glorious.

The shift from promoting a particular war to promoting war generally has to do with the number and frequency of small wars. In 1940, it was sufficient to get the public hating Hitler and Hirohito. Now, there are too many enemies for the average person to keep straight.
@no-privacy's second paragraph is confusingly worded but I think this was the intent of the post - that comparing to Figma to Github is a good/bad example because they're easily differentiable/not alike.

For me personally, robocalls outnumber legit call calls 10:1 these days.

Interestingly, most robocalls I get come from numbers that match the first 6 digits of my own phone number. I don't know why they do that, but it makes it easier to screen calls.
The new async/await stuff will help a lot with this; it'll enable borrowing across futures, which will remove this requirement and make things a lot simpler.
I think Occam's razor applies.

Several days ago, Musk posted about his brand new "media empire" called Thud! [0] — "That’s the name of my new intergalactic media empire, exclamation point optional" [1].

Not implying that he is building a FB competitor but I'd rather we wait and see, rather than speculate as to his motives for deleting those accounts/pages.

EDIT: Thinking about it a little more, he hasn't deleted his Instagram yet although he acknowledges "FB influence is slowly creeping in".

I think the influence he is referring to is the unintended consequences of the AI powering "The Algorithm" used by Facebook, which no one seems to fully understand. IOW his fears about an all encompassing AI may have something to do with his decision. He has publicly criticized Zuck for being naive [2] about the risks that careless application of AI portends to everyone.

Workers in the game industry are not only devs. There are also artists, testers, IT techs, marketers. I'm not sure the biggest issue is about the salary, but the (unpaid) overtime, precarity, sudden lay-offs, etc.
Live-synchronization became a thing when the use-model of the internet shifted from always-connected to sometimes-connected. I don't think that nobody ever thought of this synchronization model before. I mean, it's pretty close to rsync or git.
If objects that hit zero refs have their reference pushed into the queue of a dedicated GC thread, is that not still called RC, or is that called something else?
>"It's perfectly acceptable in social situations to get a number of friend from a friend to send them a text message or a phone call."

Sure, and I have done this many times. But if we append "to invite them to their party" to your statement it becomes "kind of weird". If we also add that they are doing this to many people at once, it becomes "even more strange".
well you can't be too hard on Brandon

if every Brandon out there was able to see the big picture, Dropbox would have had A LOT more competition, when Dropbox was still in the early stages. It would have made it a lot harder for Dropbox to succeed, right?

So in a way, the fact that the millions of Brandon's out there who think curlftpfs is the best, and are not capable of seeing the true value of Dropbox--perhaps that was a positive thing for Dropbox, right? Otherwise they might have tried to make a similar product and competed with you years ago :)
Operating revenue for "U.S. Information Solutions" is up $29 million over 2016 for the period right after the breach in 2017.

FWIW, this is why we go over this stuff in the book now; lots of people struggle with it, it's not just you.

And yeah, Deref doesn't kick in everywhere, so you may need the .as_str() in those situations. It should be the extreme minority case, generally. Same with .to_string(), though moreso. Most stuff should take &str, not String.
