I think this might be a case where we are seeing something as a zero-sum game that isn't. Property in Manhattan would be pretty worthless if we had kept Manhattan to a few hundred single family homes. Lower prices might attract more people to move the and everyday someone might want to build a skyscraper where my single family home is now.

I am especially enthusiastic about Open Source software and hardware, and deeply believe that technology and science can change lives positively. Recently I have authored Crankshaft - a GNU/Linux distro with a "killer app" for the RPi. It has thousands of downloads and estimated hundreds of real deployments in the first month of the debut and going very strong. It is currently #1 Shell project in Raleigh on Github and #143 in the US.

I am finishing my Ph.D. and am looking for an opportunity for an SWE position: general development, embedded, research, or backend infra. I would love to deliver products. I am not a US citizen, I have a 2.5 year STEM OPT. I am looking for an employer who can potentially sponsor a visa after a couple of years. International opportunities welcome.
You still think the truth is objective after a year+ living in this alternative fact world? There is no such thing as a "truth" anymore. Even cold hard figures are negotiable. Remember "The employment rate was fake news before but it's very real now"
I'm not rejecting the "woo woo" actually. Just explaining the downvotes.

As u/hosh 's comment showed, the amount of work required to get to an agreed definition of terms, just means that these conversations are not ideal for this type of discussion board.

It is totally possible to do, but the length of each response means that these conversations are better served off line. Or with specific online communities who have already cut through a lot of the mess, to come to a shared understanding on some topics.

Sorry this is just a semantic argument, when you are trying to have a deeper one. But my only real issue with your last comment is that it is very difficult to read, and would benefit from some paragraph breaks.
Is that an iPhone thing?

I know it's not possible to set the hostname of your phone on most android phones but it's unique.

Of course with Android making build versions and etc. Available to devs and in the case of chrome to your user agent.

Aragon | UI Developer | Remote, full-time | https://aragon.one/

Aragon is everything you need to run organizations (companies, NGOs, foundations, open source projects…) on the Ethereum blockchain. It implements features like a cap table, token transfers, voting, roles, fundraising and accounting. Aragon organizations are easily customizable, and they are also extensible by installing third party modules.

We are looking for exceptional UI developers to work with us on Aragon, Aragon Labs, and Aragon apps. Apart from being experts at building interfaces, our ideal candidates are also decentralization advocates.

Our current set of technologies includes React (web and Native), styled-components, RxJS and web3.js.

Apply here: https://wiki.aragon.one/jobs/openings/frontend/
Nice project. I like seeing people make their own tools.

The part that jumps out at me, though, is that this had to be specifically targeted at GitHub Issues. Why is bug tracking still a bunch of silos? I hear programmers speak of "open standards" and "interoperability" and "separation of concerns", and still the otherwise smart engineers at Bugzilla/GitHub/BitBucket/Trac/Jira/Launchpad/FogBugz/... go and build these systems which are 98% identical but provide no common interface.

I can share events across calendars, vector images across graphics editors, audio files to hardware players with different codecs, source code history to different version control systems, and nearly every other impossible-sounding cross-platform conversion, but with bug tracking, the shoemaker's children go barefoot.

(The one platform that gets partial credit here is Debian, because they use plain email, and you can rsync yourself a copy of the entire database. It's not exactly pleasant but at least I can process everything with existing standard tools.)

What's the logic here? Those principles of software architecture are good for every type of software except bug trackers? If we keep your issues hostage, you're less likely to leave our service? We're each going to try to become dominant so our proprietary API is the standard?
>Established businesses aren't going to put their data in someone else's datacenter

You are incredibly unbelievably wrong here. I work for a vendor known for incredibly high prices and have knowledge of basically the entire infrastructure of every one of my clients, and nearly all of them have a massive cloud strategy that's in-place right now. I even have clients shipping their security and compliance logs to the cloud, or sending them from cloud to cloud.

Actually the more medium-sized businesses are the ones most hesitant to move to the cloud, because of the lack of cloud expertise on their teams. But even then... it's still a huge strategy. They're all consolidating physical datacenters and using Amazon or Azure or Google.
The monitoring is to see if the product is making network connections, you can do that with any AI assistant, yes, but the Google and Amazon products are going to require you to allow them to make those connections. This claim is that you can see that this product isn't making connections. (I think)
> In our alternate history there was also room for Next or BeOS. You never know.

Now that you mention it, I kind of wonder what would have happened if Steve Jobs had never left Apple in the first place.
The lies we tell ourselves as designers
Ask HN: Who is firing? (April 2018)
We always see hiring threads but rarely do we have threads about companies doing the opposite.

If nothing else, an insider's perspective on seemingly worthwhile companies make for compelling reads.
Maybe in a container build environment like CircleCI where having a small concise toolset is desirable?
It is no good to see this complex world in binary terms like China vs. US.

As a Latin American you surely noticed how large the China tentacles are. Latin America is full of ongoing Chinese projects where a little local complain trigger a call from the Chinese president.

In Latin America a lot of problems can be explained by internal forces (e.g. corruption). As the Martin Fierro[1] says "Los hermanos sean unidos porque ésa es la ley primera. Tengan unión verdadera en cualquier tiempo que sea, porque si entre ellos se pelean, los devoran los de afuera" [2]

[1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mart%C3%ADn_Fierro

Arguing on-line can be a good thing: it sharpens both your logic and articulation skills. If you don't like on-line debate, you can leave.

A good online debate ends up looking like a geometry proof: based on these givens, here's the logical conclusion using cold, hard, and clear logic.

Now, it may be that people disagree with the givens, being that many of them depend on assumptions of human behavior and psychology that would take million$ to settle in controlled studies, but at least one narrows down the reasons for their preference. Another reader can then "shop the proofs" and select the one with givens that best match their own circumstances or shop practices. Thus, good debates create clear(er) decision trees even though disagreements remain. Parameters will remain parameters.
I think its lots of jobs that didn't need full-on computers in the first place.
That's called a lie by omission, so in such a case, if you wanted to tell the truth, you'd have to include "y said z" or you'd be lying.
It would be quicker to just look at the US, where protectionism has resulted in it becoming an economic superpower.

Checkr (YC S14) | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE | Senior Software Engineers

I'm Ben, an engineering manager @ Checkr. We are an API for background checks- it may sound boring at first but there are interesting problems to solve and we've seen lots of success in the market. We are hiring for all sorts of engineering roles, and are working on expanding the product beyond APIs to target traditional enterprises and innovate in a space that sorely needs innovation.

A little about our stack: Ruby/Sinatra/Rails, MySQL and Mongo, RabbitMQ and Kafka for queueing, React and Angular frontends, growing Golang and Python microservices, Kubernetes and Docker for deploying, Presto for our data warehouse, moving to gRPC for service communication.

Come help us redefine background checks!

Yup. PLOS was founded partially to do just that - prove that Open Access can work as a business model.
Yep, now explain that to a regular macOS/Windows user.
If Microsoft implemented proper security policies, I imagine that guy didn't have access to all of Microsoft's user data.

So that would be the main difference. Virtually all of a company's employees shouldn't have access to user data at all, and those that do would only have access to parts of it.
The Hottest Jobs in Boston Tech (April 2018 Edition)
> The signal/noise ratio seems high, i.e. there is a lot of factual information and relatively little ideological noise.

That seems true.

> The story contains complexity, for example in the relationships between the people involved, that makes it less predictable than the median.

There is complexity, but it's the pretty much the kind of complexity that has become a cookie-cutter template of harassment narratives in creative industries recently.

> It's a new variation in the ongoing shift in discourse about these behaviors

Is it, though? The dynamics seem to be nearly identical to many of the other narratives recently, differing only in the identity of the victims, perpetrator, and workplaces involved.
>I have never seen that message on CNN

Give me a break. You don't remember "This an Apple", one of the most elitist, pretentious advertising campaigns in recent times:

""This is an apple. Some people might try to tell you that it's a banana. They might scream, 'Banana, banana, banana,' over and over and over again. They might put banana in all caps. You might even start to believe it's a banana, but it's not. This is an apple."

I think if more developers had to live on 768 line displays, slow CPUs and 4GB RAM, we would have much better performing software.

I've never understood this argument. Why is the portable wiretap in your pocket inherently safer?

> Limbaugh's point was that he is utterly without art and music talent/training yet can re-create some of these highly praised "works of art."

Recreating something is worthless. Who cares if you can recreate something. He can splatter paint on canvas, but never thought to do it until he saw other people get popular from it. So sure, he can splash some paint on canvas, but he can't think of doing it, and that part is the art. A painting is more than just the paint on the canvas.

If I buy a machine-cut perfect 1:1 replica of the statue of David, does that make my statue as much a masterpiece as the original? What if I pay a human to make it instead of a machine?

Never had heard of rq, so thanks to the person above for that. I also use jp from JMESpath. I like it because both azure and aws cli use the JMESpath way of dealing with JSON so filtering between two different cloud providers is at least a _little_ easier when hunting needles in haystacks.

For some compare and contrast between: jsonpath, jq, and jp these were for getting AWS ec2 instance IDs:

cat foo.json | jsonpath -p $.InstanceProfiles.[*].RoleId
cat foo.json | jq .InstanceProfiles[].Roles[].RoleId
cat foo.json | jp InstanceProfiles[].InstanceProfileId

I personally believe that social media may be one of the best use cases for blockchain technology. I think that each node "paying" for their account with some sort of resource usage could be sustainable, but I am not a blockchain expert. It would be interesting to see if something like that could work without turning into a ICO money-grab.
Open boarders worked well in the early united states. I don't want to go back to closed boarders between New York and New Jersey.

I didn't notice the YouTube link at the bottom of that article, so went searching myself, and found a different recording of it [1]. That's the 2002 remastered version. It's longer than the one linked in the article--I don't know if the tempo is just slower or if the remastered version has more material.

Then I saw a comment mentioning the link in the article. I stopped the playback of the remastered version, and started the video from the article.

Then I switched from watched the embedded video in the article to watching that video on YouTube itself.

It turns out that I botched stopping the playback of the remastered version, and botched the switch to the YouTube page, so I actually had three copies of the piece playing, at different places within the piece (and possibly one going at a different tempo).

It took me something like a minute with all three going to realize that something was wrong. I only noticed because I rewound the one I was actually watching back to the start, and the intro sounded wrong, prompting me to check the other tabs.

I think it says something (not sure what) about this work that I could have three copies at different points within it playing simultaneously and not quickly notice.
