So am I correct assuming they support DNSCrypt if they claim they support encryption?

If that's the case that's really nice actually. Google DNS kinda silently launched DNS-over-HTTPS in 2016 but still no DNSCrypt; opendns are the only major ones supporting it.

Of course I stopped using dnscrypt at some point because it was a pain to maintain, and wasnt supported on most of my devices :/

I wonder if the study corrects for students that just stay up late for parties, etc., and just strip themselves of sleep when it could be avoided.

You're again missing the entire point of this conversation.

Yes, the evidence was clear in the case of the CIO, and everything worked as it should in the case of that one person. But as craigc noted, three other executives managed to sell shares before the price drop, so there's a question of how likely those three were to have known about the situation but by chance happened to have no clear evidence against them. That leads to the question of what can be done to more effectively prevent executives from engaging in insider trading in situations where they are aware that the evidence will be too scant to prosecute. One solution proposed was to zero the transactions of stock sales by executives that occurred shortly before an event like this. Saying "the stock price will take care of it" makes no sense in this context.
At GitLab we're building an automated workflow that takes you from zero to k8s called Auto DevOps.

Some of the interaction points between Auto DevOps and Kubernetes are:

- deploying review apps

- deploying production applications

- supporting deployment of staging and canary environments

- monitoring performance

You can also:

- easily create a clusters on GKE through the GitLab UI

- easily install "helper" applications to set up the cluster

- easily install GitLab Runner to run Auto DevOps jobs on the cluster

You can read more about it here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/autodevops/

As you can imagine it's quite difficult to take complex topics like this and make it easy to digest for people not familiar with it.

I hope we can continue to make small steps in the right direction in each release. If we wanted to make 1Password as simple to use as possible we could certainly do that by removing all the fancy features that most of our power users find useful, but that would anger them greatly.

We started as a power user tool, so our roots are there. We can't abandon that entirely. We just have to work harder to simplify in ways that aren't going to remove these useful tools.

As for the Mac OS Keychain import bits. There is actually no official way to do this that isn't an incredibly ugly hack. Apple doesn't provide a mechanism to get data out of the macOS keychain, and the one way they do, while it can be scripted requires asking for the user account's password for each item. I suspect if we looked at how other tools do this they are doing some incredibly wonky things that you might be afraid to understand :)

I understand that the point remains, they import, we don't... but it's a tight rope. We don't want to do things that potentially risk us losing goodwill with our users by doing weird things in the background to make it work seamlessly.

Those resolvers are technically for Level3 customers only

There is this comment from a few years ago, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7120248 , linking to a blog post which is now only accessible from the Internet Archive, where a VP at Level3 stated they were public.

I used to be a typical 'owl' as a student and when I worked in research. My peak performance hour were from 10pm to 4am. When you get kids and an 'industry' job, that isn't an option. It took me about 7 years to switch. Now I'm a true morning person. Best hours are now from 6am to 2pm. Afternoons are horror though. I can barely stay awake 2pm - 5pm.
My last point was that DNS is supposed to be decentralized. With a properly decentralized system, censorship becomes very difficult. We shouldn't rely on someone like Cloudflare or Google to provide us with DNS services.
I wonder if "Worse is Better" simply wins because developers experience failure at every part of the process "for free," as the common case. You design a crappy API, test it, hack around it, ship it, debug it, criticize it, design something better, deprecate it, and continue through another iteration of the entire dev process.

Meanwhile the other school is trying to design an elegant and complete API, but the elegance and completeness cannot leverage a full iteration of real tests, hacks, release, real-world debugging, real-world criticism from arbitrary devs/users, plus all the pressure to design something better so the awful idea can be deprecated and forgotten before it brings the whole project to its knees.
Just wait... It will turn sour as all other infatuations. Or maybe it will crystallize into actual love. Who knows?
This was the best thing with PHP. In comparison, I spent most of Thursday digging through a problem with log4net which causes it to block all other web server threads if someone throws an exception and it has to do heavy reflection to generate the log message. This cascaded up into a complete process failure.

Shared state and locks are evil.
FB is like a phone company where everyone can call everyone else, all the time, in some type of huge broadcast style phonecall, where people who miss the calls can listen into the recording later. As a matter of fact, that's where the analogy between phones and the internet breaks down too.
This is a good approach that I'm going remember next time.
An opinion goes against your indoctrination so you cry out an accusation. I didn't question him and I didn't downvote him either.
I don't think it's fair to say the entire company believe it was spies. Clearly a lot think it was just a few jerks. That said, FB is almost certainly infiltrated by a few governments. It's not exactly a small company. If China wanted to get someone on the inside, it couldn't be that hard.

But IMO, this was just an employee who admires Snowden.
I'd guess that the spam filters probably go crazy because users actually mark this kind of email as spam.

It absolutely is censorship. They may have every legal right to do it, but at the end of the day, they are restricting broad categories of speech, it's censorship, end of story.

Furthermore, "your own turf" never is and never has been a carte blanche to do anything you want - certain regulations and obligations, both moral and legal, kick in when you open a business to the public.

>That’s why all the work we do in growth

I'm not reading that as "anything we do for growth is justified". It's "everything we do in growth", as in all the tactics we currently use in our departments focused on growth, are justified.

This is like "everything we do in sales is kosher". It's admitting you do some abrasive things, but it's stuff that's justified.

Does it sound gross? Yes. Is it true for most companies? Yes. These are uncomfortable truths, companies make sites imperfect to optimize for ad revenue, do extensive A/B testing to see how they can influence behavior, go as far as sending you 20 email drip campaigns or bombard you with notifications to wear you down into using their products, these are all growth tactics that get used by not-evil companies.

To me, the dumbest part of this is that someone would write this all down, and be proud of it. So proud they'd make it a memo and send it company-wide.

This is the silent shame of the tech world. We're forced to modify our most harmless ideas to make a successful product in the real world where even having the best product ever won't guarantee success without tons of marketing using ad campaigns driven by ill-gotten analytics data.

That's what "Most of us have the luxury of working in the warm glow of building products consumers love. But make no mistake, growth tactics are how we got here." is saying.
Exactly. School acts more like a daycare center for kids of busy working parents. They’re the customers.

I have been writing about ways to reform the whole experience for years:

The situation is wildly different. A half century of progress has been made, and SpaceX is taking a much more affordable approach to the whole thing.

We used expendable rockets for Apollo. And there were at least 6 different stages, depending on how you count (3 stages for the Saturn V, plus the command module which had a propulsion section and a reentry module plus the lunar module which had descent and ascent stages), all of which were expended. There were at least 3 different propellant combinations with even more engine types. All of these components were basically dedicated to the Apollo program and had to be paid out of that budget. Each mission requires the expenditure of all those stages.

The BFR for SpaceX, on the other hand, is just two stages. The two stages are very similar, using the same propellant type and basically the same engines. BFR will be used for satellite launches initially, so its development can be paid for separately. The advantage of BFR is that it is fully reusable, so you literally can use the same rocket to send stuff to Mars as is used for satellites. The biggest part, the booster, never needs to leave a few hundred kilometers from the launch site, and can be reused for satellite launches. SpaceX is able to get by with just two stages because they simply refuel the landable upper stage again and again instead of dropping stages. They're leveraging reuse not just to lower launch costs, but to dramatically simplify their mission architecture (and thus reduce development costs).

The reusable upper stage also serves as the lander, once refueled. And it is designed to be refueled by an essentially identical vehicle. And the lander itself can also be reused for the next Mars window. So in a single Mars mission, NOTHING needs to be expended, and at most you're just tying up a single stage during the duration of the mission; the rest of the architecture elements can earn their keep launching satellites while astronauts are on Mars.

Before SpaceX, launch costs for the US were around $20,000 per kilogram to LEO. SpaceX's F9 and Falcon Heavy have brought the cost down to around $1000-2000/kg. BFR, since it's fully reusable, could bring the costs down to $100/kg or even $10/kg. SpaceX designed an architecture that could reduce the cost to Mars by orders of magnitude and whose primary components can be developed and paid for the same way Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, and Dragon are paid for (i.e. by delivering cargo for paying customers).
Disenfranchisement can be achieved on a greater scale if you make an example of people. If you take one person and throw them in jail for voting, you get a classic chilling effect.
That's not science :)

However, you're right: in the article, it's not clear how we decided to consider the experiment as successful: we called a meeting with all the team and asked everyone something like: "Do you think that the situation on Slack is better now?", and the majority of people said "yes".

I added a note at the end of the article to address some of the comments ;)
Well for me it is really useful to renew let’s encrypt certificates. When doing DNS validation, you must enter a TXT entry as a response to a challenge. Having multiple public DNS is useful to ensure the entries have propagated before letting letsencrypt know they can query them. OVH’s Anycast DNS servers propagation for instance is really non deterministic. It may have propagated when queried from one location but not yet from another.
Do you have a source? Wikpedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_oil_expor...) lists the US as 14th. Saudia Arabia is number 1 and Russia as #2, as I expected.

Github's existence does nothing to change the distributed nature of git, just like GMail's existence does nothing to change the nature of email.

They offer/sell a service that is built using those technologies. People go to them for the convenience you mention. If there were other convenient ways to use those services people would use them as well.

... and there are! Github has competitors (Gitlab, bitbucket, ...) and GMail has competitors (Fastmail, hotmail, yahoo, and a bazillion others). Maybe it doesn't feel like they have enough competition, but if they actually turned git/email into "distributed only in theory" then there wouldn't actually be competition.
While I agree in principle, I think it's because a good video streaming service is not just about the storage and the index. Adaptive delivery, such as the DASH technique [0], is a huge part of it.

> Is this typical to construct HTML in Lisp? This feels incredibly verbose and error prone, not to mention confusing and hard to grok. Good luck having a designer mockup/write HTML.

Do you mean that (:td :colspan "2" "username:") is verbose and error-prone compared to <td colspan="2">username:</td>, or what are you comparing it to? That code is probably denser than I would have written it, but I don't see any issue related to the fact the HTML is being generated from Lisp.

This example doesn't take advantage of it, but writing HTML in Lisp is easier and less error-prone than regular HTML, because you can abstract patterns and factor things.
OK, while I get the sentiment, this story is about a crime that was a mistake.

I think many of us are aware that felons loose their right to vote. I guess I assumed you would be blocked from voting. So I never thought about what the penalty should be. Now that I’ve seen the penalty, I’m appalled.

Frankly, I think we should quit criminalizing everything. The governments responsible for jailing criminals, no-fly lists and a lot of other things. Why not take responsibility for blocking felons from voting?
