I think you need both. Experienced engineers to teach the new people and serve as an example, and young engineers to keep up with the times, have more dynamism and, eventually, have a good next generation of experienced people.
Exactly that. I'd not spotted that a nice convenient option already existed rather than rolling your own. If the location you host pollen on to provide entropy for elsewhere via pollenate, try running haveged.
Wouldn't he also have to learn a lot of advanced mathematics? I'd imagine the bunch of graduates in this case would be math majors. Obviously I don't know the specific requirements of your organisation, but this re-skilling might take up to five years ( if the requirements were R&D focused... Maybe the situation is different if it's more about applying pre-existing sofware. )
> However this pans out, there are going to be a lot of people on one side that were totally, completely wrong. I doubt there is much middle ground for this.

I am starting to have doubts on this one. I mean, I fully admit that if bitcoin ever becomes widely accepted as currency/money, something in my worldview has been horribly wrong and I need to learn from that. But the other side can keep on burning fossil fuels worth millions of dollars daily indefinitely [1] and keep on moving the goalposts and claiming that the still undefined actual use case that is worth billions of trillions may actually be just behind the corner. And we likely are beyond the point where anything could convince cryptocoiners otherwise.[2] I strongly doubt (and thus cast a challenge to prove me wrong...) cryptocoiners can come up with a clearly defined possible future event (or lack of event) that would irrefutably prove them wrong.

[1] Well, of course not indefinitely, there are things like the sun turning to a red giant and the Big Freeze of the universe that may cause some hiccups there, but indefinitely for the purpose of this analysis.

What's New in Angular 6
You can't be too mad about the full port range. Residential ISPs blocking port 25 outbound (spam malware) and inbound (people installing mailer services as an open relay by default) contributed to tonnes of unwanted traffic.

I know there was an amount of collateral damage, but if you think about it, it's been many years since malware would get in user desktops and just send spam, largely due to this.
"Internet-like product"
There's no way to recover from a failed write (if the drive is still operating and could reallocate the sector, it would have already done that).

That's not exactly true. In the thin-provisioned block device case, administrator action can make it resume accepting writes.
random thought: they said most of the cash was to start the gigafactory, now that they've changed to expansion from "near"(c) full production, maybe they really need none or near none ?
If I had access, "finding dates on Tinder" is amateur hour. You can find out a lot of details about a person if you go through their profile (usually you have to be friends with them, but if you're an admin probably not), and even more creepily, if you go through their messages.

If she says "attending" to an event on FB, you'll know where the person will be at a particular time and date, you can just "randomly" bump into them and mention your love of $MUSIC_GROUP and $TRAVEL_DESTINATION.

And since the mobile app probably logs locations, you could also trawl through that data on the fly to "randomly" bump into them again a few days later. "What a coincidence!".
>in order to promote their own business model.

What's the theory exactly? What would be the benefit for AT&T to block a new 3rd party DNS? Did they do similar things in the past for other 3rd party DNSs such as OpenDNS, Quad9 or Google's? Seems odd to target this one service in particular.

But without a CA, the current SSL system (which I agree sucks) does not actually offer much security: your "secure channel" can be trivially man-in-the-middle'd.
Does anyone else get that feeling like, "am I the only one who sees what a load of shit this is?" I don't think it's imposter syndrome per se, but it's related. It's like, "I'm the only one who can see the truth."

An example: years ago my old crooked boss brought everyone in to his huge office to tell us why he couldn't afford to give people the pay rise they'd been asking for. With a straight face and with his Aston Martin parked in plain sight behind him. He gave some sob story about how a friend had come round his house to ask for a loan and how he was so poor he could only afford to lend the guy £800, even though his wife didn't want him to. It was pathetic. At the end of the meeting I walked out and duly started laughing, only for people to reprimand me, "he's doing his best for us! Didn't you hear the story about his friend?!"

So since then I've learnt to keep my mouth shut. Just yesterday I was in a meeting where we were giving estimates on things we knew nothing about. On the way back I glanced at people's screens and there must have been a hundred people pushing numbers around on excel spreadsheets for presumably no reason.

Quite possibly everyone else is just keeping their mouths shut too. And now we all go around doing pointless shit all day, every day.

Just now I saw a hare run across the field outside the office and thought, "you lucky bastard."
I guess you could do that, but it doesn't seem that it would have any greater chance of success than regular non-creepy dating.

I think Nuitka is an answer looking for a problem. Usually people move away from Python. If they really need more low level performance, or implement whatever system in Python itself, to solve the problem Nuitka might solve for them.

That said, it's a wonderful project, I hope more and more people will find it useful for them.
Yeah there comes a point where you stop rooting for the little guy doing little-guy marketing gimmicks and realise it's a billion dollar company making intentionally disingenuous statements.

The Model T reached around 70k per week. Tesla has no business referencing it. It's like saying I got a promotion growing my salary from $50k to $80k this year, a growth rate of income that, if continues, will exceed even that of bill gates. It's a joke.
Yes but.. Facebook is not the employer of its users..

There is no need for anyone at Facebook to have access to users information.

In an honest world, nobody at Facebook should be able to access people's personal data without their explicit permission on a case by case basis.

if it was encrypted in a proper fashion and the work flow was correct, (if Facebook really cared about users rights) there would be no possibility of anyone other than users from accessing user's personal information.

Hawaii Approves Bill Banning Sunscreen Believed to Kill Coral Reefs
Depends on individual circumstances, but there are hypotheses you can test on your own on yourself.

1. Quit watching porn. Articifial stimuli can lead to behavioural addiction which can fuck up your mental wellbeing and leak into other aspects of your life. Plus, it's another 100 billion dollar industry that makes money by exploiting our human nature.

2. Try acting classes. Acting involves among others, status games. For some exercises you will have to lower your status( act like a baby, dog, retard, or just do stupid shit) for some you will have to elevate your status. But for both you will be exposed, in front of people, and if you give it enough time you realise how you've been acting a certain status and how that takes a toll on your wellbeing. And maybe you should allow yourself to act retarded from time to time, even feel stupid, and that there's nothing wrong with that.

This is just from personal experience, with skin in the game.
Happens rarely, but I laughed out loud at a HN comment :)
As a programmer approaching 30 I can confirm this for me. I am horrified that a company would prefer the long hours / low quality output of my earlier years compared to my current fewer hours / more thinking / higher quality output. I can only hope that I will improve a bit more as I cross over 30.

Who knows, perhaps I will immediately plateau and never learn or improve after 30 ;)
> Suggesting that sufferers accept that might actually be true is not helpful.

On what are you basing that? It's an interesting insight. Thinking of the world as one big pool of impostors might be equally relieving.
Well, it may or may not be possible. The ledger may record a series of transactions like A → B → C → D → E, and you may know that A belongs to Joe and E to Mary, but it's not certain that you can know whether B, C and D are decoys created by one of them (and so they actually transacted directly) or if they're other people and the money simply circulated.

There are techniques to try to find that out, but they're not infallible.
> "am I the only one who sees what a load of shit this is?"

Disillusionment.
LibreOffice was written using an overachitected component system; it is very slow. Just writing something without the layers of abstraction would be refreshing.
And as the education tools become better and better (Youtube videos, free online CS classes made by the best teachers in the world, high quality open source projects) I am afraid this trend is going to continue.
No, I replied and rapidly edited out a few words of my original reply to try and make it clearer, but seem to have done the opposite. The last sentence initially started with "Interestingly". My original meaning of the last paragraph was "here is an interesting, related, factoid. The UK happens to have a regressive tax to pay for the NHS".

My main point is that governments are free to provide the same service to rich and poor without that being regressive or disproportionately favouring the rich. For example, bin collection, policing, national defence, fire safety, etc.

A universal health service can simply be another collective service. If you want more because you're rich, in the UK we also have private healthcare services you can pay for, much like you can pay for a cleaner in addition to your bin collections or a body guard in addition to the police or national defence or pay to install fire suppression in addition to the national fire service.

What makes it regressive or not is how it is taxed for.
I would cancel any broadband contract of any ISP that did this when providing me a service. We need to stand up to these sort of things. (Disclaimer: I live in Europe though.)

Yes. The problem earlier was that NIFs had a maximum runtime of 1 millisecond before they needed to store their work and return control to BEAM, to avoid blocking the BEAM schedulers. Dirty NIFs refer to NIFs that can run for longer, on special dirty schedulers, without affecting the stability of the BEAM system.

I've seen your interviewing approach in action and it works brilliantly. This is pretty much a step-by-step of the way my last hiring manager interviewed and he never failed to build very strong dev teams.
It is just about six commands to create all the pools.

gcloud container clusters create flk1 \
--cluster-version 1.XX? \ #put your version here
--machine-type g1-small \
--disk-size 20 \
--preemptible \
--enable-autoupgrade \
--num-nodes 1 \
--network flk1 \
--scopes storage-rw,compute-rw,monitoring,logging-write

gcloud config set container/cluster flk1
gcloud container clusters get-credentials flk1

gcloud container node-pools create small-pool-p \
--cluster=flk1 \
--machine-type n1-standard-1 \
--disk-size 20 \
--preemptible \
--enable-autoupgrade \
--num-nodes 1

gcloud container node-pools create small-pool \
--cluster=flk1 \
--machine-type n1-standard-1 \
--disk-size 20 \
--enable-autoupgrade \
--num-nodes 2

I remove the original small node once the pools are created.

And then other pools for higher usage nodes.. The smallest cluster I have is about $75/month.

Pre-emptible nodes seem to recover quite well and I always keep at least one container per pod/etc. on the non-pre-emptible just in case.

I wonder how many Facebook engineers still use their own messenger for private conversations. I would guess most of them are using iMessage or Telegram or something similar.
The bigger issue here is that they reacted to this event, rather than proactively managing it.

From the article, “Access to sensitive data is logged, and the company has automated systems designed to detect and prevent abuse”,but if that were the case surely they would have acted on this before it became public.

In reality they have no incentive to police this kind of behaviour until they are called out on it.

In truth, I would never spend time and effort looking into potential malfeasance myself, as I would be too focused on building out new features and ideas.

I don’t know if a natural incentive exists that would drive the behaviour it seems society expects.
That was 14 years ago though, his situation was slightly different back then.
I can understand where you are coming from but I think his decision is not taken lightly, it is about quality of life and his impression of it.

You are touching on something that most post ignored.

When a significant number of employees suffer impostor syndrome that's a symptom of an overly competitive environment.

Reminding your employees that they are expected to be the best engineers in the world once a day it's a good way to delay promotions and salary raises.
Firing employees dumb enough to snoop and brag isn't enough to restore user confidence. Facebook needs to take concrete steps to prevent employees from snooping, and it needs to be publicly seen doing so.

I stopped using Facebook years ago because I felt it was just too invasive. I've felt like a technological Luddite ever since, but boy are Zuckerberg & Co. ever doing their level best to make me look prescient!
It would be okay, if Python would support a low level faster subPython within itself. RPython for example.
It has been a few years since I learned about Guifi.net (non-English site; English portal:guifi.net/en/node/38392) in Catalonia/Valencia - a 2004 startup. WP says that (as of a year ago) it has 'over 33,000 active nodes and about 46,000 km of wireless links.' It's described (in English) in this 2016 paper

http://dsg.ac.upc.edu/sites/default/files/dsg/acm-sigcomm-ga...

as 'known to be the largest community network in the world ... and is still growing while successfully evading the collapse of the tragedy of the commons. Undoubtedly, this is due to the governance model that the foundation has developed....'

Since it's been around for a while, and still viable, that says something about the idea worth attending to.

Is it taken for granted that the concerns of not being adequate always are unfounded? What if you observe other people who are inadequate and shouldn't be there? You can't have impostor syndrome on their behalf, can you?

I don't know. I think security should come first. Also Apple makes it stupidly and unrealistically simple to backup your macos. I remember when it was a pain to backup my windows and having to run through all the files. But Apple's Time Machine is really spectacular at that.
I for one don't feel smart enough to even experience impostor syndrome.

One thing I noticed was that it seems all those rescued are black.
I heard of bitcoin pretty early on in /b/ and have no regrets. I also don't regret that I wasn't alive to cash out at the right time on tulips or penny stocks or dot com companies, or even stuff which turned out to stick around like Apple.

There are lots of places to gamble and lots of people winning and losing all the time, much more often through luck than genius. If some of those people end up fantastically wealthy and rather smug about it it's definitely not the biggest problem for me or my ego.

People who become fantastically successful through skill, determination and creativity, they're a bit more bruising.
gobject-introspection generates metadata from source code, stores it as XML files in $PREFIX/share/gir-1.0 and as binary files in $PREFIX/lib/girepository-1.0

And it breaks a lot! So checks out.

- great compatibility with Gnome things

- interoperable with c

It's the internet, blocking ports without explicit reason is totally unacceptable. It's also in most cases since people will just tunnel their traffic over ports used by other applications, such as 80.

The right response is to contact the owners of the servers/services they're running and tell them to configure them correctly - if they continue to abuse them or don't show the technical skills, then that's another matter.
