Are you arguing that the second image here (the one marked 8:27 PM) https://twitter.com/EricPaulDennis/status/975891554538852352 is a perpendicular intersection of the end of a sidewalk with the roadway?

Is there another walkway/roadway intersection that's approximately perpendicular that I'm not seeing? (I have to assume that we're looking at different areas of the map, because I give you enough credit that you aren't arguing that these two characters are perpendicular right at the end: \| )

I agree with your closing notion that there is a question of contributory fault. What started this sub-branch was my argument that the pedestrian's contribution was not 0.00%. I also don't think that the Uber Volvo's share is 0.00%.

Yes, and there are multiple other chans that have popped up in direct response that are more "free" speech. Most of the stuff on 4chan can be found on reddit, etc, and often does, usually OC on 4chan just gets posted on reddit days or hours later, the only difference is shtposting doesn't get down voted.

No way is it a lie.

The kind of people who enjoy running a company with a ragtag group of 10 employees in the early days are rarely the kind of people who will be able to effectively run a 10000 employee operation.

If you’re growing fast there is no time for on-the-job training as CEO. You need to be effective immediately or else you are only hurting your company’s growth.
These facts are only relevant if you disregard LIDAR and you believe that the camera showed what the human eye would see. Videos on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRW0q8i3u6E and also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XOVxSCG8u0&feature=youtu.be) and ABC news footage (http://abc7.com/video-shows-self-driving-ubers-fatal-collisi...) at the scene of the crash paint a much brighter picture. The street lights in the footage appear to be distinct while the background is dark, indicating the gain of the sensor would appear to be reduced. Try taking a picture of streetlights at night, if the street is visible, they will appear as stars. Additionally, the safety driver was not paying attention.

EDIT: In my opinion, the more you think about this crash the worse Uber looks. The LIDAR should have worked, the lighting was likely brighter than the video shows, the weather was good, no obvious distractor objects, the road was straight, no parties were impaired. The pedestrian had a big bulky bike and crossed at right angles to the car. This is nearly the most basic test of self-driving cars and it failed. The only way Uber would look worse is if it had happened in day time.
On top of that, Uber disabled the Volvo auto-braking safety system. (https://www.sfgate.com/business/article/Uber-Disabled-Volvo-...)

Facebook: All the time. Virtually everyone I know, virtually every event I go to, virtually every business I frequent keeps their content up to date. I derive great value from it.

Twitter: Hate it with a passion. Primarily use it at conference and other such ad-hoc gatherings. Impenetrable UX (I still have no idea how anything works after 10 years of trying), impossible to get the feed working the way I want it, horrible use of space (somehow way less efficient than Facebook even though it's supposed to be for short messages), threading/replies/etc impossible to follow.

Strava: Post all workouts (multiple per day between bicycle/run/peloton/etc). Follow a handful of people. Non-addictive but I don't necessarily derive a ton of enjoyment from it either. Great for tracking my workout data but the 'social' part is something i don't much care about either way.

Reddit: Almost never; makes me feel like an old grump complaining about 'kids these days'. Every subreddit I try makes me feel like it's 1996 again and everything is new, and everyone is wowed by the same old stuff and rehashing the same old political/religious/etc arguments. It feels 20 years out of date to me. I keep hearing you just need to find the 'right' subreddits for you, but so far, no luck.

Instagram: I use it/post fairly regularly. Not quite sure why. I don't enjoy it more than when I see the same pictures on Facebook.

Likely the way I derive value from these things is that I don't care about brands/influencers/etc. People who really like Instagram and Twitter seem to care more deeply than I do about random people they've never met. The reason I derive more value from Facebook than any of the others is REAL people I actually known and care about are there, and their content interests me. I have no more use for 'online personalities' than I have for reality TV.
"The more you use social media in the way it’s designed to be used — persistently throughout your waking hours — the more your brain learns to crave a quick hit of stimulus at the slightest hint of boredom."

While I do not use social media (have FB but don't use it, never had Twitter, Instagram, etc.), and have taken steps to minimizing distractions like using the browser add-on Distraction-free Youtube (which is great, BTW), I have realized recently that HN is one of three sites I am addicted to and use in lieu of social media. I absolutely hit refresh on the HN main page whenever I encounter the "slightest hint of boredom" or just something I don't want to do. Same for the other sites.

This is troubling to me, as all three of those sites are legitimately very useful. I read them for useful information and to keep abreast of topics important to me and to know what's going on in the world. They also provide insights from other perspectives I have not considered and act as a challenge to my own opinions and beliefs. It seems obvious I am going to have to severely limit my use during normal hours. I am aware of the noprocrast setting but honestly, it's a setting I have full control over so that doesn't help as I'll just override it and the other sites have no such setting anyway. Going to have to rely on good ol' self discipline.

After working through a number of startups that grow from 10s to hundreds I don't think it is untrue.

The argument is not what an individual is capable of learning and doing but personality fit. The founder who has a burning desire to unleash their idea to the world is generally not the same person who wants to grow the company at a larger scale.

1) I think the founder treats the company too much like a baby and sometimes the hard realities of the business are ignored. It is nice to have a fresh breath of air from leadership who have not been with the company from day 1. They have a different perspective that I believe can make a huge difference.

2) It is a different type of work. Perhaps the person can make the transition but I don't think that is normally the case. The challenges are different at size 500 compared to what t hey were at size 10 and I think a lot of CEOs who strive in the small scrappy environment do not really enjoy it at size 500. Sure they may trick themselves in thinking it is for them but I think it does more harm than good but it is also a learning experience for a lot of first time founders.

Don't confuse me. I am not saying its impossible to successful founder/CEO at size 500+ but I don't think the type of person who founds a company really enjoys it.
It really brought a beautiful graphical identity to their branding. Very well done!
Your class warfare demagoguery is entertaining. The entirety of notable human civilization is defined by exploitation, and nobody who matters will ever care. Except politicians who will use your whining and vote to do whatever they were planning to do anyways. Vast inequality is, and always has been, the mark of a great civilization.
That's pretty clever, it looks like you've found a sweet spot somewhere in the middle between SaaS and good-old on premises that would serve a lot of use cases.
Eh, most 747 pilots have probably flown a number of smaller planes before.

Having a number of hours in a small plane in no way disqualifies you to fly bigger planes.

Also in this case they aren't only the pilot but also the constructor of the "plane".

(That said while most pilots started small not all Cessna pilots should go on to fly passengers or even cargo.)

I recently switched from LastPass to 1Password and was surprised with what a bad user experience I'd gotten used to from LastPass. The attention to detail (down to designing their own font!) from the 1Password team is impressive.
Not only, but they can't claim this is something that was done to them over their protest. It was something done by them, in collusion with others.
> Does a system in which the DNC can secretly (until it gets leaked) show favoritism still represent democracy of any kind?

Sure. They're ultimately tasked with winning elections. If a neo-Nazi ran for the party's presidential ticket, I don't think anyone would question their right to oppose that.

Sanders was no neo-Nazi (clearly!), but I'm not shocked the Democratic Party leadership flinched internally at the prospect of a non-Democrat jumping into the race and affecting the chances of the most viable candidate in the general election.

> If the RNC did the same thing I'd be complaining about them too, but they didn't in this last election.

They absolutely did the same thing. I have 100% certainty that a leak of the RNC's emails would show similar internal efforts to prevent a Trump candidacy.

> The RNC and DNC are organizations intended to help their parties' voters pick among several primary candidates. That they failed at it doesn't change the fact that they publicly expressed the preferences you're aghast at the Democrats expressing internally.

That's one of their responsibilities. They also have, per their bylaws, responsibilities to win elections for the benefit of their respective parties and their values.
Can someone help me with 2 questions:

Question 1: Can someone comment on the actual severity of them storing all my passwords remotely? I don't like the idea of it, but it seems like they're a reputable company so I assume they have good systems in place. I have the standalone right now but it's getting to be a pain to move from computer to computer, and I don't trust dropbox sync.

Question 2: Lets say the online version gets hacked... and they steal all the vaults, does that mean they only need my master password to get in? What about people who have weaker master passwords. Can people brute force the password vault in the same way that someone can if they have a hash database of passwords?
If I convince the mayor of my small town to sign a document saying the town will pay me $100k for 100 years for my 'services' for the next 5 years, does no future generation have the right to renegotiate that?

I disagree. This is EXACTLY why roles such as "Chief Operating Officer" and "Director of Operations" exist.

You don't make your company succeed by giving up control. You hire people you do control who have the skills you lack.

I have been in this role at my previous job - I had the responsibilities of an engineering manager and a team/tech lead.

I focused on my team's productivity/management responsibilities first, and coding/my own technical productivity second. Even doing that, I was able to do so much coding that after I left, I heard that someone said that the company would have to hire 3 senior devs to replace just my coding. I was generally very hands off and tried to foster autonomy in my team as well, deferring to my team's judgment/expertise.

The people do exist, but I think it's a terrible idea to expect most engineers to be able to jump into a dual technical lead and manager role, as I don't think most engineers have the skills to pull off both.
OOH integration with the pwned password database.

However, it looks like it pings Troy's service to do its magic so not everything is kept locally. (I don't blame them, for speed, and for not needing a many-gig database download for each client.

Still, a cool feature, but something to be aware of.

I don't think you're wrong here. Relatively experienced SWEs should be able to do this by themselves. Tech leads should be delegating some of this responsibility to the individual contributors and only offering minor pushback to keep general clean architecture and higher level tech infrastructure goals in check.

This has been known for a long long time, but keeps coming up in articles as a new finding.
I tried doing this, but many subreddits have a restriction against account ages. I frequently find myself being unable to post (or I am, but my posts are in the "shadows" with no notice), without getting an AutoMod telling me:

1). Your karma is too low

2). Your account is too young

3). You haven't been subscribed long enough

It's always a turn off when you've written a long and properly sourced info dump, but then the automod deletes it and you have to go fish it out of ceddit et al. And then asking admins to make an exception is always as fun as getting your license renewed. So I do what the OG does: Keep a couple of accounts dedicated to each subject-matter, and delete my posts routinely.

If what I post is important enough, it'll propagate. If it doesn't, it dies. That's not the reason I do it, however. It's a boycott against Reddit as the world's discussion platform. Good luck figuring out the answers to those really important questions or why all the commentators are applauding [deleted] ;)

I don't have a regular commute, but I usually work offline when travelling.

First, some non-programming things:

* Answer emails with an offline email client (e.g. GMail Offline, Thunderbird).

* Download things to read. Consider an RSS reader, Pocket, or just saving PDFs and eBooks. For times when I'm stuck on a project or don't feel like squishing myself into an awkward position to use my laptop I'll pull out my Kindle ($20 from a flea market) which has a bunch of public-domain books from Project Gutenberg, and papers that looked interesting to read. The YouTube app allows you to download videos to watch offline, too. (This may only apply if you have a YouTube Red subscription.)

* Take up knitting, or darn your socks.

Now the programming-related stuff. Working offline is very different than working with an Internet connection; not only do you have to have your documentation locally but also you have to figure out any problems without the help of StackOverflow. This generally results in less productivity, but a deeper understanding of the software you're using.

* Use https://devdocs.io to keep an up-to-date offline version of any software you use. Also install the -doc packages (or your distro's equivalent) for any software you have.

* Find out how any package managers you use (e.g. apt, npm, pip, docker) cache packages. If you have even the remotest suspicion that you may want to use a package, put it in the cache when you're near an internet connection so you can install it later.

* Use git. For your own projects, you can commit offline and push to the server when you have a chance; for other programs/libraries having a copy of the source code is helpful when you're trying to track down why something isn't working and you can't just Google it.

* Whenever possible, set up a local copy of whatever you're deploying and make it as easy as possible to sync your local copy to the live version. If you're using Docker this is your Dockerfile; for servers I will keep a dev instance as a local VM managed by Vagrant, with the config stored as an Ansible playbook. This way I can get the Ansible playbook to do what I want in the VM and then deploy it to the live server later.

* This way of working will influence the software you write. If you're building a company you're likely to wind up using fewer cloud-based systems and more self-hosted (or at least self-hostable) ones, since you can test against a self-hosted service if you have a local instance. (Example: for error reporting, use Sentry rather than Airbrake or Rollbar. Even if you use the Sentry.io SaaS in production, you can set up a Sentry docker container for testing locally.) Even if you do have a dependency on an external service, you will have some sort of OFFLINE flag that disables that feature or turns off cache refreshing.

>But I have a degree in philosophy and was trained in my formative years to argue with folks.

Interestingly, the way we often teach debate is: Someone can argue either side of an issue, and be judged on the approach, successful influence or tactics used, with insufficient weight on the merits of the position.

I suspect this helps promote the climate that is reflected in your followup statement:

>I can't really get out of the mode of arguing - I'm constantly encountering people I love casually sharing memes that say that "people like me" are the root cause of all societal problems - I'm constantly reading between a bunch of lines and seeing where folks I love are in fact doing terrible things for their families and relationships.

The current implementation of paywalls / adblocker-blockers on pretty much every such site is laughably defeatable. I worry that if solutions become popular, they'll wise up to it, and make it a lot more difficult.

Yeah, I tried using LastPass for 6 months or so but never really got into it. The browser integration (at least 3 or so years ago) was pretty janky. Switched to 1Password and never looked back. I've been very happy so far, so hopefully you continue to be as well.
Yeah, but they're dangerously close to having their Digg exodus moment. The problem is they ban guns, the gun community leaves, but the gun community also frequents other sub-reddit's, its kind of a venn diagram. Each time they ban one controversial community, and they move somewhere, that community usually also participated in the mainstream sub-reddits, and that eventually bleeds off. Especially since Reddit is very selective about which sub-reddit's to apply ToS on which is very obviously effected by the politics of the places their offices are in.

It might be paper cuts, or it might be a redesign, or the rumored shift to being social media, but I honestly feel like Reddit is past its eternal September moment and kind of on the cusp of going the way of MySpace and Digg in the next few years.
This GRUB bug you are talking about, is not a kernel problem though; on a side note, I'm going to read on the links you provided as I want to see if encrypted root partitions could also be compromised, I suspect no.
I can't wait for ES module support in Firefox by default (so all major browsers are covered). It feels so good to be able to write code in "plain old JavaScript" again without the need for transpilers and build tools for small apps. I made this minecraft WebGL2 thing (https://mrspeaker.github.io/webgl2-voxels/) all in modules, and being able to just view-source without any shenanigans feels like the old days.

The only issue now is I want to share the code with a Node server... I really hope the new proposals will help bridge the require/import gap!
Yup, great call out. As a Tech Lead your team productivity takes precedence, even if that means you don't spend any time coding during a sprint. That's why it's a different track than a IC or subject matter expert.
