Yeah, the IDE is painful. I think there are ways to expose the script files in drive and edit them outside (possibly even debug in eclipse in a very roundabout way? I might be dreaming). I wish they would integrate with jetbrains (as they've done with android)
At some point i learned about the way to export environment variables to a single command:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=build/lib build/bin/mycommand

I try to use that whenever i can, and as such it is now very rare for me to generally export a variable in my shell.

> Part of the fiction management sells itself is consultants can cut across those organizational boundaries and find the 'right solution'.

Being a consultant, and knowing multiple others, I feel that not being part of the company "tribes", really allows you to more easily cut across those organizational boundaries you mention.

How many times I've heard of 2 technical divisions complaining about each-other where the main issue is the lack of communication and simply not knowing who to talk to in the other "tribe". Consultants however are part of their own little 'consultant tribe' across company tribe boundaries, who more easily bond together and talk about stuff like that. This means this group is more diverse and has more contacts spread throughout the organization, making them ideal to cut trough the bullshit. You also have the fact that when a company was happy about a consultant, chances are that when they need someone somewhere else, they'll hire the same consultant again, dumping them in a completely different group of people.

Yes this is 100% a social problem, but it's there, and a group of outsiders will address this more efficiently.
> 4. Provide a fairly straightforward way for people to get temporary elevated access. If it's easy to get elevated access, then users will not be tempted to "hold on" to elevated access longer than they should (e.g. by leaving a terminal open for a very long time).

Or to hack around it in some other way, eg by adding some sort of backdoor to a production application.

This is such an important lesson, and one that unfortunately is lost on many command-and-control type IT departments.

Usually RSS stands for "feed", so both RSS and Atom. I personally prefer RSS format for the feeds I make because Atom feels like premature optimisation, and I do not really comprehend UUIDs, and do not understand why I have to bother with them given a URL is a unique identifier anyways (i.e. https://example.com/a/b/c points to one thing and one thing only at any given time).
Automatically Building GraphQL APIs with PostgreSQL and Postgraphile
I very highly recommend Crayons. I have been using them since I was maybe 4 or 5 years old, and still find it useful to this day. It is a simple joy.
I'm using RSS with a browser extension, which will check the feeds. Then I'd read the content on the site. Since it's a handfull of blogs and webcomics, I've got no problems with curation or finding the content I want to read.
When approaching people, lead with the advice part. "I would love to go for coffee to get your advice on how to grow an e-commerce business. I know you have expertise in X, y z. My startup has $600k RR after 6 months".

If you lead with mentorship or a description of your company it could scare some people off.

Also try and leverage your network to get intros. Ask everyone you know if they could intro you to sometime who might be able to help you

"useless content". FTFY.
Gortex is very good these days...
Yes. I suppose that probability to get such bad random distribution which makes SL search to be linear is similar to probability of moving all oxygen atoms to only one side of your room.
I still love RSS like many people in this thread. I've been using them to aggregate and publicise a lot of the content that the developers we work with create https://web.gdedeck.com/ (I created an aggregation client for myself) and likewise our team is starting to publish more activities https://devwebfeed.appspot.com - RSS is a great fit for consumption and sharing...

However there are still a lot of issues that I see.

* discovery is still an issue - more and more people are removing link rel alternate from their content so it's becoming harder to find the feeds.

* ATOM vs RSS is still a thing even though all the feeds that I parse are actually mostly ATOM namespaced RSS feeds.

* syndication and push - Pubsubhubbub is still hard and not widely supported.

* Cross-Origin and HTTPS - for my needs I'd love to be able to fetch content directly from a web client and not have to proxy the content, however the web's sandbox model means that I need the pages to be on https and have the correct CORS headers - there's no clear incentive though for publishers to support this though.
Permissions can also be revoked after the fact in the app settings menu.

https://www.howtogeek.com/230683/how-to-manage-app-permissio...
Honestly the only thing that gets me rating at all is that the app asks a short time after the trip. I imagine this method would just mean less ratings

Now you have to decide does no rating mean good (nothing to complain about) or bad ("No comment.")
Aren't UIDs effectively the same as integers in this case? Seems like it's conceptually similar to using the MD5 hash of the integer ID. Wouldn't it still cause exactly the same issues mentioned in the article? Anything non-random would.
IANAL, but most probably not. When thinking about "strictly necessary to provide the service", one should think in terms of technical feasibility, as in "can the service be technically provided without that data?" not in terms of profitability.
Also strict immigration policies.
Nice!

I will compile a list later of media players that has this feature and put it on SubSync github so it can help people out as much as possible.
Quite a lot of people do look into sources, actually. Quality of those checks, and how much do they cover in the end - that is the question. But it is better than nothing, and absolute majority of closed source apps offers you exactly nothing in this regard. Surely, opensourced code is not inherently safe, but with time passing, while userbase is big enough, it gets some attention, which means advantage on a scale of probabilities.
I wasn't aware that it is, and cannot find it on the RS noticeboard:

I’m a tradesman with a passion for tools of all sorts but especially the ones I personally find useful.

As a non-developer, as an observer, if people want to call themselves “software engineers”, and I think it’s a fair title: you are designing and building systems people rely on, then you need to take the first steps toward self-regulation before it’s imposed upon you.

Yes, if you want to call yourself an engineer then you ought be able to prove under examination that you understand first principles. What those first principles are ought be determined by the industry itself in collaboration with a peak-body for oversight.

What we have not is practically the Wild Wild West that is actively doing harm in some areas.
When i first worked with migrations, they were run manually as part of the release process. Over time, we automated them - by making them part of the release tool. It never occurred to us to make them part of the application itself. For us, it was therefore completely natural that the app's DB credentials did not have DDL permissions.

The whole idea of migrations being run by the app still seems really silly to me. I suppose this is the obvious move for developers who (very sensibly!) build applications, but don't build their own release tools, to whom it would never occur to put migrations anywhere except the application.
I suggest Discourse too. Users can login with their Github account and you can deploy a small instance very cheaply in Digital Ocean. It's better than a chat and the content will be indexed in google quickly.

Do what you like, but the vast majority of people should not be doing this, because the risks are vast and the rewards basically zero.
I’ve been using Unread app on my iPhone to read all my RSS feeds. I really don’t get all these “RSS is dead” arguments — for me it’s always been such a pleasant experience. People don’t talk about it much, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s “dead”.
My sister instead of her hand turns the page nearly 90° counter clockwise. She writes "upwards". I always thought that was pretty neat.
It depends. Immigration for passport-holders from EU-countries is hassle-free and takes around 20 minutes. (The Swiss are very efficient.) Switzerland has agreements with the EU and can't just deviate from them. In exchange Switzerland can export stuff cheaply. I moved here four years ago, started working as a programmer and now I run a tech recruitment agency. So, I bring people into the country for a living.

I think it is now widely understood that best practice is to blame processes, not people.

However, i do have a niggling worry that letting people off the hook risks stunting their personal growth. If you can make mistakes and not bear any responsibility for it, what is driving you to get better at doing your job?

Van Plows into Crowd in Northern German City of Münster, Killing at Least 2
Dead & undead are not really interesting categories.

Who is using RSS? How are they using it? What depends on or is enabled by RSS? What are the feedback loops, and what are the trends?

There is difference between podcasts, news sites publishing a headline-only, twitter-like feed and a blog publishing full text essays. The protocol itself is a protocol. The interaction between consumer, publisher and protocol is what's interesting. That's a very wide field of possibilities.

Fwiw, in the context of a FB alternative, id be looking out for trends that blur the lines between consumer and publisher. Its certainly not sufficient, but I imagine that any open (or not) alternative to social networks will have this quality.
Anecdata- When Google Reader was killed off I stopped using RSS feeds entirely with the exception of podcasts

Since the recent post saying we should to back to using RSS I've given NewsBlur a go (I'd tried Feedly when GReader died, didn't like the way it scrolls). Honestly though I looked at a few articles on the day I signed up but I've not checked back once yet. I'm like the person that pays for the gym then never goes when it comes to RSS now apparently.

I don't think I've ever had a problem with a site not having RSS feeds though, any site with regular articles that I want to follow has had one
Signatures have never had anything to do with identity. They are a physical manifistation of ones willingness to contract. They draw the line between drafts and final contract language. The action counts, not the image.

That signatures are somwtimes compared is secondary, akin to comparing paper types or forensic prints. Contracts are not like a signed bat. They do not become worthless because you forget to cross your T.
Not only sites and blogs, Mailchimp newsletters also support RSS feeds, which means that a lot of newsletters can be consumed by RSS readers.

A agree that it never really died, it's just hiding.

Show HN: Snippeteer – A Productivity tool to rescue you from retyping
Nope. I was using uBlock origin on Firefox with dynamic blocking and quite a bit of the provided blacklists enabled. I just gave quick uMatrix a look, and it does not seem fundamentally different to me. I like that I can easily add some globs and use version control on the blocklist without having to import-export my settings.

Qutebrowser is a very interesting browser. It's easily scriptable using a config file in python, but not only. It has a nice Emacs Customize like UI, and then it has a system reminiscent of CGI for running external scripts against web pages or on events. A definite improvement for me over whatever is available. I maintain a handful of websites with js enabled (HN, reddit, youtube, a couple more), and for the web apps I'm forced to use, I just start up Chromium temporarily. It's been lovely so far.

The unbanked are not going to be using cryptocurrency, which requires secure access to secure computers, a whole mass of precautions, technical knowledge etc etc. They're not going to be putting what little they have into a wildly fluctuating asset class with poorly enumerated tax liabilities.

I would love to see the resurgence of RSS and other public protocol enabled start-ups and solutions. This is the time.

RSS is also a prolific engine for curation, given how flexible and extendable the protocol is. The emergence of expert-run email digest frenzy should be built on foundation of RSS, where individuals can parse hundreds of sources and quickly construct a digest for easy circulation.

Sequencing has errors - some in the PCR stage so not corrected by greater read depth for short reads (long reads are much more error prone). Genomes are dynamic - they change. You are looking at the progeny or regenerated plant, not the original plant. Exact matching will not get you far.

I'm a PhD student, and one of the things you quickly become aware of is the fire-hose of new science that is published daily. The discovery/prioritisation problem is being "solved" by publishers recommending other articles (published by them) on their website, or sites like ResearchGate (basically Facebook for academics and researchers) doing the same with similarly obscure algorithms.

I started a side project that pulls in RSS feeds from various academic publishers and uses a simple regression analysis based on tiles and abstracts to recommend you papers. I've become busy with my PhD but if anyone is interested, it's on github:

Vulnerabilities are everywhere, let's not be mistaken here. Closed source is full of them too, you just don't have a chance to know it in most cases. The fact that bugs are found, and publicly announced does, in fact, prove that the model works. That said, I agree that "opensource" label is overadvertised, and many people started to see it as a synonym to "safe" which is definitely a grave mistake. But dismissing its small advantages, just because someone believes they are big doesn't make sense too.
Definitely an interesting piece.

While college has the potential to be a great equalizer, society needs to focus on the school system before kids reach college.

Teachers walked out in three states because they are so underpaid. Teacher have second or third jobs.

You want everyone to have an equal footing? Let’s adequately fund our education from k-12. And while we are at it let’s have some universal pre-k.

If we do both, we can have a more merit based society. If we just focus on colleges, it won’t solve root cause.

I recently discovered zyre. Its from the same guy that brought us the wonderful zeromq library

While it does a lot of the connection and communication part, it lacks a way to bypass nat routers.

Here is a book on zyre http://zguide.zeromq.org/php:chapter8

I also found this thing called pwnat which bypasses nat routers without the need for UDP hole punching !

I feel like if someone made a high level wrapper combining these two, we can have a very good framework.
While I'm in full agreement on the need for more competition in these industries - which thankfully seems to be happening - I don't think it's important to prevent this particular issue.

Uber has no incentive to keep bad drivers around; after all, it costs them little to fire them and onboard a new one, and there's plenty of people willing to drive a car.

Besides, it's not such a big problem. What ends up happening is that they raise the bar; e.g. an average of 4.6 becomes the equivalent of a 3. A friend of mine has a house on AirBNB with a rating of 3.9, and it's essentially invisible - you'll only find it if you set very specific filters.

Specifically, they can use percentile ranks to do the "translation": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile_rank
> The whole idea of migrations being run by the app still seems really silly to me.

I have one app that kinda runs migrations - there's a helper app which is built at the same time and (normally) runs before the main app. But this is based on a per-user database which means there's no "release" process that could run the migrations.

(Similar to iOS apps, really - when you get a new version of Teleappchatbook, it'll often have an "upgrading..." step which I assume is migrations / index updates, etc.)
There is a lot of work done right now on formulation of defined faeces microbe sets, partly because most people expect that ultimately these treatments will have to be approved by the authorities. This is probably a good idea, as the microbiome consists of both bacteria, virus and eukaryote organisms, and the survey people use for 95% of all microbiome work can only capture the bacterial fraction, so a faeces transplant that look good from the bacterial perspective could potentially include nasty virus or parasites. How long this work will take is difficult to say, but years at the very least.

The second part is that right now it is somewhat unclear what is actually microbiome related problems. Clearly, associations to all kinds of diseases and conditions have been made, but the casuality and dynamics of the interaction with the immune system and host factors is not well-defined for now.
It seems obvious that diseases in which we can intervene with a fecal transplant and improve an outcome are microbiome-related, but there isn't actually that many solid cases for this. C.diff infection is well-established. A recent RCT looks really promising for insulin resistance (i saw the senior author talk about it at a conference and i was certainly convinced), but naggingly insulin resistance wasn't actually the registrered primary outcome of the trial

One of my favourite aha moments: Back when I was much younger virtually every cookbook said you should add olive oil to pasta cooking water. I could never figure out why. Later people pretty much poo-pooed the practice saying that it was some old wives tale about stopping the pot from boiling over or some such thing.

Fast forward many years and I was trying to work on a bolognese sauce. My wife likes meat/tomato sauces on spaghetti. I think it's weird because long pasta like that should be with an oil/cream based sauce. Anyway, I figured it would make the dish much better if I somehow coated the spaghetti with olive oil and then spooned the meat sauce on top. But how to easily coat the spaghetti with olive oil? I figured it would be easiest to float a tablespoon of olive oil on the pasta water and then draw the spaghetti through it as I took it out of the water. And then I realised what I was doing :-) Still not sure if that's why people suggested it oh so many years ago, but it works a treat!
I have made checking my RSS my equivalent of reading a newspaper in the morning. And it's really easy for me: Emacs is always open anyways, so I type M-x elfeed RET G, and I have a list of updates. I have configured Elfeed such that it has some stored searches [1] which I navigate using j and k, and such that it scores articles in a crude but useful way [2]. So it takes me about 5-10 minutes to process the entire thing, make note of the links to read later, and check the important, immediate stuff. And once I transformed it to a rather joyful thing to do from a chore, it was incredibly easy and automatical to make it into a habit.

Bikes still work on the rain, you only need to dress up a bit. Extreme heat is way more problematic.

As you said, it's more of a cultural problem, that can be solved. If we accept that motorbikers need lots of specialized equipment to ride, we can accept that cyclists need a couple bits of extra clothing every now and then.
