What is this dangerous precedent? I struggle to think of a reasonable hypothetical scenario where it is just to continue punishing someone for something which isn't a crime. On the other hand, there are actual thousands of people locked in confined spaces for acts that society no longer believes merits locking people in confined spaces.

But, you say, they are the kind of people who disregard the law so we should keep them there anyway. They are in prison because of a specific crime, not their general audacity to defy the state. Imprisoning someone because of an error and continuing to do so after it has been realized serves no societal purpose and is a cruel and excessive use of force.
SEEKING WORK | REMOTE | San Francisco Bay Area, CA but mainly seeking Remote on a European timezone, travel possible

Full-stack developer with 30 years of experience. Javascript/NodeJS and/or C# .NET. I've worked in Finance with UBS, Credit Suisse, Wells Fargo and AXA Winterthur, and I've worked with startups. I prefer back-end development (I can leverage NoSQL datastores, for example) but I do front-end development as well. I have soft skills and can work with the customer directly as well as manage projects.

In other words, if you have an idea for a project and need someone to take that to implementation as an MVP, I'm who you're looking for. And I'm flexible with salary for the right project.

Prove it. "Cheating" seems to have huge downsides, on the other hand it reduces friction inside of a rigid system. That is a net positive that stealing a TV from best buy simply does not have.
From planking to pizzas: the new rules for a successful meeting
All the new construction I see in the south bay area are 3-4 story townhouses, condos and apartments. However they are still going to be expensive given the demand. However the bigger problem is transportation. The roads are getting worse during peak rush hour and I don't see much room to improve it further. I've been a long time resident of the bay area and a lot of neighbors are complaining of the traffic leaking into the surface streets to shortcut the packed freeways. Some are voicing complaints to protest additional housing until the transportation is improved.
No way you could get a Gibson for anywhere near $150 - the demographic looking for the toy guitars isn't the same as the one that would buy a Gibson. Doubtful this had anything to do with it.

Clearly they need to create a free iPhone/Android game that becomes wildly popular in these countries so that they can use their own domain to front their 'secret' packets.
Outschool (https://outschool.com) | Principal software engineer | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE

Outschool (YC W16) is the marketplace of small-group online classes for kids, K-12. Our live video chat format makes awesome learning experiences available to kids around the world. They love it!

Already, hundreds of independent teachers are offering thousands of classes in every subject: forensic science, competitive math, storytelling, art, and many more. We’re growing 8x year-over-year, and just raised more funds to expand the team. We want to be every kid’s second school.

We are a product-focused team of 6 in SF, with experience in education, marketplaces, software, and operating online services at Udemy, Amazon, Airbnb, YC, Square, Google, and several startups. We have an exceptionally sane work culture for our early stage: no egos, boondoggles or fake urgency. We pay attention to our users and prioritize carefully, start simple, run experiments, then iterate.

We're now looking for a senior software engineer. It’s an amazing time to join! You would build a new kind of educational service from an early stage, learn and grow with us, and significantly contribute to our success. Everything about our product will evolve, so you'll work on a variety of large-scope projects: in-class interactions, teacher tools, messaging, marketplace discovery, metrics, internal process, infrastructure, and more. You’ll contribute to every product area at every layer of the stack. We use modern ES6+ JavaScript, React, GraphQL, Node, and Postgres.

We think that the best candidates:

* care about learning and education

* have been programming professionally and challenging themselves for at least 5 years

* prefer to focus on user experience over infrastructure complexity

* need a mature perspective on engineering tradeoffs, product decisions, and teamwork

* can be effective with minimal process at first, and adopt more structure as the team grows

* communicate clearly

* have something to teach us

If you’re interested and available, please reach out to work@outschool.com
It's what happens when your culture and society has been gutted by the elite who have sold you out to globalism and multiculturalism in the pursuit of personal enrichment.

American culture and society has been totally and utterly eviscerated and shattered and destroyed and ground down, which has been going on since the early 60s. This is the future everyone else has to look forward to if you follow us down this path like Europe is continuing down.

I know that won't be well received by many, but fact of the matter is that the reality that the subject article describes is not only the consequence of the self-destructive evisceration of American culture perpetrated by the liberal/communist forces in America, and it is the future Europe has to look forward to.

I would like to warn all other societies, Indians, Chinese, Japanese, ... anyone else. Let this be a warning to you. Do not under any circumstances allow liberals to spread in your society. They are a real world zombie apocalypse that will destroy your culture and societies just as it is burning through American culture and society and is starting to accelerate in Europe.

You are on the sidelines of a monumental historic event; the total and utter implosion of a dominant and previously flourishing society and culture through self-imposed destruction. Pay attention and enshrine it in your culture to never let liberalism, the obsessive entitlement and taking all that others created for them as granted by spoiled rotten brats.

Yes, Americans are lonely, because liberals destroyed culture and society and communities ... all while proclaiming they were going to improve all of them. They are a scourge on humanity and you must eradicate them wherever you can without mercy. They are the forces of evil and entropy.
Word on the street is that kids just don't want to play guitars anymore. Throw some samples into GarageBand, and have at it. One young lady describes herself as being considered "weird because I play a guitar". I am a long way from childhood, but the impression I get is that the age of the guitar-playing rock god might be taking a breather for a bit.

But in Gibson's case, it's debt-laden acquisitions. They might sell fewer Les Paul's than they used to, but probably enough to stay in business (Fender and Martin don't seem to be going anywhere). One additional point of data is the Nashville flood from around ten years ago. The mandolin business came back to life, but IIRC Gibson just gave up on making banjos after that. How the flood affected the rest of the business, I don't know.
I'm glad people are finally speaking up.

It was a really weird situation. What scared me wasn't the homelessness, but that nobody felt comfortable acknowledging it or saying anything about it (positive, nor negative) for fear of being insensitive. I don't think anybody actually thought the situation was acceptable, it was just an Emporer's New Robes situation.

It disgusted me that so many people could disconnect themselves that much from reality.
That non-RFC-compliant implementations of HTTP exist irrelevant to what properties HTTP methods are supposed to have, which is the issue under discussion.

I just looked it up - I got confused as it was Abbey Life not Abbey National.
I'm thinking of a legislative, not technological solution to this, which seems to be pretty straightforward: make it unlawful for US companies to refuse service simply for Domain fronting. That way, none of the big companies could lawfully refuse service to Signal; neither could they be faulted by these other regimes for "letting Signal use their domain".

I'm wondering what will happen as GPU's become more general-purpose. What's next after machine learning?

Would it be possible to make a machine where all code runs on a GPU? How would GPU's have to change to make that possible, and would it result in losing what makes them so useful? What would the OS and programming language look like?

Now that I've hit it once, I watch out for websites with this problem. I was surprised to notice that a Fortune50 tech company's internal employee-personal-webpages-maker-thingie had that issue. And then a week later they asked me if I could crawl their internal web. Uh, no, who knows what other internal systems had that problem?
"According to The Economist, influencers with at least 100,000 subscribers on YouTube can get an average of $12,500 for a sponsored post, with payments going up rapidly if you have one million subscribers or more. But those figures refer to endorsements by people who are celebrities in their own right. Someone who's only well known on YouTube might not command that kind of pay."

Ah, that's right. I forgot about that development.
"The bay area has forever lost it's ability to produce cost effective housing."

Strong statement, if slightly ungrammatical. I think this is a challenge to visionary thinkers and leaders to change the game. Engineering is one part, as is regulatory capture and regressive real estate laws and norms, weak state government in the state, and highly atrophied political participation. What could change that? I can think of one thing, and one thing only, that would "shake up" the status quo.
AFAIK There was some effort to make this TLS 1.3 SNI header encrypted but some influential groups blocked that (I think I read something about ability to route and control traffic easily). Really sad :(
The fact that they posted the e-mail from Amazon, so readers could direct the blame at them. You can’t
read that blog post and say it’s the most unbiased and objective way they could have presented this, especially if they want to remain on good terms with Amazon, who has done nothing wrong at all.
What? Noo... When you consider the chrome password manager you must consider the chrome binary as a whole. Chrome has had significantly more security issues than 100% of password managers. Of course -- its a more complex set of code.

Its about surface area. A password manager that has no browser integration is by its nature less likely to be compromised, as there are far less vectors of exploitation.

Don't store your passwords in the browser. Use a proper password manager. How its gets from PM to B is up to your risk appetite.

If they hosted on VMs they would simply hop from one place to the other. The problem is that all of this stuff is "difficult" and no one would be writing stories about how great signal is if it could switch between thousands of companies that provide VMs to masses.

We do not have these thousands of companies because AWS/GCS/Azure are the go to. Well, guess what? That means that objectively there are three kings of the world and the lieutenants of those kings get to decide what is and is not allowed.
Wouldn't a paid Facebook still collect most of the same data on you? Especially w.r.t. a dating feature? How can you be confident that data would never be used in a way you wouldn't want? It's not just "how it's used today" that's the big concern, here.

You could design a paid Google that did less tracking, less personalization - how do you design a paid FB without your personal info?

They say it doesn't solve the problem

- "Would adding federation to Signal help with users behind country-wide blocks? Seems like a distributed service would be harder to censor than a centralized one."

- "It's trivial to block several distributed hosts simultaneously. An aspiring censor would simply find the most common federated endpoints for a given service and block all of them. Only the users of that software would be affected. There wouldn't be any collateral damage.
If the censors somehow didn't hit every single worthwhile federated endpoint, users would still be left wondering why they couldn't communicate with most of their friends. Moving between federated hosts would also necessitate an entirely new identifier, so users would need to rebuild their social graph again.

In addition to being ineffective against censorship, there are several other properties and trade-offs that make federation a difficult proposition for an application like Signal: https://signal.org/blog/the-ecosystem-is-moving/"

It is true in the US. There's been a lot published on the subject and it won't be hard to find. The developing world is another story, but the inequality is arguably even more extreme. With a much higher percentage of people living in poverty. Their middle class is mostly growing though, so the picture is improving.
The review mentioned it did, but I don't understand why they have a virtual room. Why not just display the video at full resolution?

Why do I have to have my head and face oriented toward a virtual screen? Why would I want to look down at a virtual coffee table, or up at a virtual ceiling, or behind me at a virtual couch while the movie is playing at some fraction of the device's resolution in a different virtual direction?
The whole 'biohacking' thing is a joke. Most of the stuff these people do is downright stupid and often dangerous. I wish media outlets would stop glorifying it.

And, the impact of that would be that richer companies would swoop in and get free work. Sounds bad. Real bad.
Not closely enough that it would have been considered low level at the time, if you look at the instruction set C isn't even close to one-to-one with the machine instructions. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDP-11_architecture#Myth_of_... for why people might mistakenly think otherwise
If a significant percentage of users actually exercise this option, that will be the end of Facebook as a significant channel for ad spend. It will decimate revenue.

Most people likely don’t remember this, but Facebook ads were a joke among the marketing community when they were first introduced. I’d have to find it, but one study produced before the Facebook pixel was introduced showed that less than 6% of Facebook advertisers had any kind of ROI from their Facebook ad spend. The pixel is one of a handful of things they created that turned this around - all of a sudden, people saw ads for things they were already interested in. If the pixel is effectively gone, much of Facebook’s revenue will go with it.

The recent upheaval over privacy didn’t make me worry about Facebook’s future or the stock price. Revenue was still coming in, and as Eric Schmidt says, “revenue solves all known problems” [1]. But this marks the beginning of Facebook’s end as a cash cow. What does a post-revenue Facebook look like?

I would short the stock - now.
