> This should be eye-opening to a number of Europeans here on HN who, in the GDPR debate, basically dismissed any possible negative implications of the law by trusting their politicians and basically saying “we don’t have to worry because this is not the United States”.

The EU is not a democracy. It does not matter what some Europeans think. It probably will not matter that some Europeans protest.

The involved politicians decide what they want and probably nobody will know what politician voted for what.

By far most Europeans have no idea what is going on. Like my entire family. Even if they did, they would not understand or trust some website like changecopyright.org that might as well be a criminal website that collects personal information or a website to support the nefarious intentions of evil Facebook or evil Google.

The mainstream media are "protected" by these laws and will not speak about them or against them. Instead it is said that Google profits from the hard work of the European media and should pay for it.

I guess the few owners of the media wrote the new copyright laws in the first place.

P.S.

The downvoters are ignorant as usual because they have nothing else to say.

I have contacted my MEP.

I have sent links to my (somewhat politically interested) family without getting any response.
The answer is that most people are unaware of the history of the interent.

Even in bygone eras there were LOTS of communities like this, and they too had to deal with these issues.

Famously - Jewish communities would get targetted by Nazis, or Holocaust deniers. They would get DDOSed or worse.

Spam, trolls and so on were always there.

Many of the terms we use to describe this problem come from that era.

In the end, you ALWAYS end up depending on moderation. Its not the software - its the wetware.
I'm talking about the scenario where cryptocurrency is already threatening to destabilize the world financial system. And it's trivial for the world's governments to shut down all the satellites that might transmit bitcoin transactions. Now if a small group of people could figure out how to launch swarms of rogue satellites quicker than the gov could shut them down, that could be a way to keep crypto going.
Thank you for sharing the links. But as far as I can understand, the new regulations do not abolish the need to record the data. They only set up safeguards for which data can be used.

I think a VPN provider in this case is still obliged to keep logs, albeit only hand them over if the necessary conditions are met.

Coming from Turkey, I could not imagine a state, where the communication logs are not saved. But it seems the US does this only through intelligence agencies and does not force the ISPs to keep logs.

The only thing keeping me on Mac is audio software like Ableton and Traktor. I’m aware that there are Linux alternatives but I have an Ableton licence and so want to keep using it. If they ever release a Linux version of Live I might jump ship.
After not finding success reporting to managers, I started my own company. In the end I learned that I'm a great fit as CEO and not a great fit as an employee.

Now I have the freedom (and responsibility) to make those decisions. Yes, you could build a relationship with your manger and try to find a way to convince them to let you go to these events. Or, you can be your own boss and just go.

If you keep thinking your manger is "doing it wrong", it might be worth stepping into their role and seeing if you can actually do it better.

There’s also a very good chance that it you are terminated and offered severance, your severance package is contingent on your waiver of all potential claims against the company.
If Chicago has the same underpinning of clay much of London has and he's below basement level, dig cost can be pretty tractable. That said, I too have doubts the model can work.

Basically, I think he's overstated the potential savings from process improvement and understated the on costs of safety and compliance to standards like air quality and escape paths.

Probably an bug of the AMP auto-conversion. I bet the full version of the page displays fine.
I think you're right. This was more of a pent up reaction triggered by the article, even though the article is not making that point directly. It seems I am coming across the naive view a lot lately.

Thanks for listening to me rant.

2011s are a great machine. But as of the next MacOS release 10.14 they are no longer supported, as 10.14 will enforce Metal and those pre 2012s don't have the right gpus for it. I recently picked up a lightly used 2015 because the current touch bar ones continue to have problems.
I love the short story "The Gernsback Continuum" for this reason. Gibson writes about his rejection of a bright, optimistic, pseudo Aryan future for reality. It's framed as a writer plagued by hallucinations, but I read it more as a commentary on the absurdity of classical sci fi in the modern day (or at least, the 80's). All the elegant flying cars and people in white jumpsuits eating food pills are visions of the future from the far more innocent, optimistic era of the 40's and 50's. But writing those same stories now just doesn't make any sense.
>If that does model best mankind and society, maybe it is not that much cynical and pessimistic but realistic. That said, it is only a model, a tool to better understand ourselves.

Therein lies the problem, though. Models when used by people are not only models. They shape and influence reality in return in a feedback loop.

Even if a cynical model "does model best mankind and society" as it stands, there is the possibility that using a less realistic one could help improve mankind and society.
7 Gmail Tips to make the most of your Inbox
Amp adds nothing to make a site faster. The opposite. It adds some mandatory libraries. It just imposes some restrictions on what a page can contain. So the version companies make to be included in amp might be smaller then their original version for that reason.

We should downrank slow bloated sites directly instead. Then companies would have an incentive to make their sites fast from the start.
During my first job after university, I spent a bunch of time developing apps using Lotus Notes. Because all of the company's 2000+ employees already used Lotus Notes for email and calendering, deploying these apps was easy.

And in many cases I was able to develop the basic functionality of a workflow app whilst I was talking with the main user to gather requirements. And, although the platform supported a proper programming language (LotusScript, with almost the same syntax as VB), I was often able to build what I needed with just the GUI tools and a few formulae (roughly equivalent to formulae in Excel).

There are a lot of Lotus Notes haters. I think the majority were put off by the email experience, which is very different from other systems.

But the ease of developing, deploying, updating and using internal-only workflow applications was truly awesome.

I hope App Maker is as easy to set up, for simple use cases at least.
IMHO and from experiance, HR are probably the last people you want to involve. They are your enemy and will do their best to fail you, sooner or later, if they can.

I’ve worked at Microsoft for 5 years and saw it time and again. When they were finally taken to court, they simply moved the head of HR to the USA. Sort of like the Catholic Church and child abuse, if you need an analogy.

There’s no “work ethics” in the USA. It’s a myth capitalism invented in order to exploit employees and get away with it.

It might not be a solution to your problem right now, but maybe working in a country that abuses its workforce to a point that they are too afraid to admit they’re sick, is not that healthy for you.
Human resources literally means that humans are resources.

I would like to believe that employers would really take care of their employees, but in 2018 this just isn't the case. A problem employee is a problem employee and often will just get shown the door. Once an employee is a problem, many managers claim they don't have time for him anymore.

Also "unlimited vacation" is not truly unlimited. It's kind of a tax game, where they don't have to pay you unused vacation if you leave.

If it were me going through your pain, I would resign and explain why. If they wanted to keep you on, or let you take three weeks of vacation, that's their decision.

But don't tell them hoping to get support, and then be surprised when you're out of a job.
Facebook has recently published a paper on how they use NVM caches with their MyRocks (MySQL) databases; the morning paper has a really good write-up: https://blog.acolyer.org/2018/06/06/reducing-dram-footprint-...
Exactly. As an employer, I don't want to pay (or demean) someone by telling them to report to a job they know they will lose and have no chance to save. A severance is supposed to ease the transition, but you don't want disgruntled employees in your office.
I like how this vulnerability report gives a reasonable set of actions for mitigations:

For Users

Remove verbose from gpg.conf, if you have it.
Do not use gpg --verbose on the command line.
Upgrade to GnuPG 2.2.8 or GnuPG 1.4.23
Upgrade to Enigmail 2.0.7
Upgrade to GPGTools 2018.3

For developers

Upgrade to python-gnupg 0.4.3
Call gpg with --no-verbose to disable the attack.
Use a dedicated pipe for --status-fd, and do not share it with stderr.
If this is not easy (or even possible) due to the framework or target platform, consider --batch --log-file FILE to redirect the stderr output, where FILE can be /dev/null, too. Thanks to Patrick Brunschwig for this idea!
Or, the --status-file FILE option could be used to direct the status lines to a temporary file.

Most of the contracts I've heard about only transfer ownership if you use company resources to work on it. Any project done in your free time, with your own resources, belongs to you.

This is probably the reason why most valuable employees are transferred to Switzerland or United States or why big companies choose to develop IP in the US.

Stealing your employer's trade secret can trigger federal investigation.

It's shocking how few employees know this.

Once I met employees who would copy over the propriety packages from their old employers to their new employers just to save some time.

The other time i met employees who would develop a system the exact same way as they had done at the previous employer.

This is probably the biggest risk which specialized employees do not recognize while job hopping.

Beware, simple frameworks like this might not capture the whole picture...
Something I find bemusing are the never ending slew of studies that aim to evangelize 'new ideas' in parenting and child rearing contrasted against the negative changes in outcomes of children and young adults in the US today. Children and young adults in the US today are, compared to decades past, suffering sharp spikes in mental illness, obesity, as well as performing relatively worse academically and even exhibiting lower average IQ.

It seems that something we have done or changed has resulted in an incredibly negative change in developmental outcomes. Yet there simultaneously seems to be no little to no effort to see what we were doing so well before, or what we're doing so poorly now in. Instead studies such this one instead seek to constantly demonize past practice and evangelize for new change for reasons that seem to be almost exclusively driven by ideological bias.

Or shall we simply remain in denial?
I don't know what the law is like in the US, but in my country you do not have to share a diagnosis with your employer. Given the stigma around mental health, I'd really not disclose too many details prematurely, unless you are certain that your company will be supportive. All they need to know is that you are not fit to work. Whether the reason is bipolar disorder, migraine, or a broken leg really isn't any of your employers business.
If you want time off, take time off.

Keep the reasons to yourself.
I just went through the worst job search in my life but it ended up well for me in the end, it just took awhile. Don't give up hope! Keep doing the interviews, something will work out for you eventually!

I got suspicious. Took a look and stopped reading. Flagged the post. I don't know what else to do but GOOGLE you are reaching levels of EVIL.
This has been coming for a while. In public Elon has been using "eccentric millionaire" to dodge Tesla finance questions which is a sure sign the numbers look bad.

Given they'll need to refinance and I'd bet the Model 3 sales after reservations are low due to the cheap one not being available yet, the company must've been looking at a financing crunch for a while now.

This is very much a move to clean house so they can do another round.

The "NASA technician" in the second to last image appears to be airbrushing a large scale version, does anyone know if there are more pictures of this somewhere?

Sounds like another promise waiting to be broken. Never is a long time.
Agreed. Help your manager succeed and they in turn will help you.
I think if you're a profitable company some percentage of engineering effort should be carved out for continuous refactoring. I'm sure there is a good balance in there somewhere.
Security Things in Linux 4.17
Mechnical things largely work the same. What you do have to pay attention to is that you can't have stuff like flywheels that rely on air to slow them down.

Otherwise, a film camera would work the same in vacuum, even if it had some electric components.

For the film itself, I don't think you need anything special, there is nothing on the material that would boil off under vacuum to my knowledge.

The difficult parts are really heat because unlike in air, any heat you gain is difficult to get rid off again since there is no air to transport it away. So if you do have some electrics in your camera they can easily overheat if not designed for vacuum operation.

A Few Thoughts on Portfolio Management
Thanks again for the link, was very informative. I admit I didn't know much about the regulations outside of Turkey and to some extent EU. I just had a criminal procedure law class and I learned that in Turkey the prosecutors can request any communication logs without a warrant.

As we import our laws from other European countries (for example criminal procedure law was imported from Germany) I thought that this must've been the case in many law systems.

This discussion has been eye-opening for me.
We do a lot of stuff in the open. Coding, learning, blogging etc and that's all fun when things are going well. You can decide that line stops at your personal health. Keeping details to yourself is not lying or being nasty, it's a healthy personal boundary. Take care of #1 always. (edit grammar)
What we need is the equivalent of inter process isolation for intraprocess sandboxes, i.e. an hardware solution (hopefully this time not affected by Meltdown).

And we might already have it. Thanks to virtualization hardware, it should be possible for a process to own and handle its own private page table mapping completely from userspace [1].

Switching from the sandboxed code to the sandboxing code might be more expensive than a plain function call, but still way faster than IPC.

[1] For example, libDune (https://github.com/ramonza/dune), which admittedly seems a dead project. Also it requires OS support.
An analog signal carrying digital info has to be pretty beat up before a Schmitt_trigger can't flawlessly distinguish 1s and 0s.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmitt_trigger

Put the input and the output of a Schmidt on an oscilloscope some time and tune across an HF band for weak digital (RTTY) signals. Then try adding crap to the input.

They'll pull perfect (digital, lossless) copy so far down in the (analog) noise that it can barely be heard. I'm sure there's better stuff these days (been a while).
I believe it's also fuelling a rise in casual assumptive anti-Asian racism. Many buyers are of Asian origin but national residents. Locals who compete have no basis to know a counter bidder is resident or non resident status and the fear is causing social glue to weaken. It expresses in really awful ways.

Disclaimer: I live in an apt complex with a mix of resident, non-resident and domestic and international investor owners and we're doing fine. I'm reporting anecdotally what I sense from anglo Australians trying to buy in a hot market.
You nailed it. It stops being 'wanting to' and starts being 'having to' and that is a subtle inflection point in an engineers life.
There’s no good way to do a layoff, but a good severance package goes a long way towards “doing the right thing”. 1 month per year or part year of service, plus notice period, is fair. Statutory minimum, in the U.K. at least, is a sick joke. That’s all that IBM offers.
I see what you're saying. I guess it's an attempt to provoke outrage, but like many other such tactics it can just as easily lead to apathy, if it's not accompanied by actionable information for example.
I think the fine structure of GDPR means that what might otherwise appear to be bottomless cash reserves are in fact only significant cash reserves, furthermore not only the advertisers have made this mistake but also the big players who seem to be operating at least on a quasi-antagonistic mode.

So what I think is - when the antagonism ends up taking big chunks of money everyone will suddenly realize "oh shit, it's not bottomless" at which point there will opportunities to take advantage of.

But maybe my take is too reasonable and instead the advertisers will think oh damn, stuff is really messed up better stay the course with these big guys to get us through these troubled times!
You are being facetious.

If your image is called monero-miner and a bunch of people download it, of course it's not going to be considered malicious code.

If your image is called apache-webserver and a bunch of people download it and you've stealth bundled a monero miner, of course it's going to be considered malicious code.

EDIT: even worse than that, the images are actually back doored they open up a reverse shell to allow the remote to execute arbitrary commands.
1) You can't do everything. Even when you COULD do each single thing there is only so much time. Saying "no" is important to get things done.

2) The world is absolutely unfinished. Really I sometimes wonder why everything not just breaks down with all the issues and broken solutions.

3) Teaching people is wonderful and fulfilling

4) Sales people and development people are .. different

You're right. I don't know if there's anything further than what I currently perceive, but this is definitely orders of magnitude better than before I started.

And that's pretty much the only thing that has changed (other habits haven't changed, such as meditation and weight-lifting).
I really don't understand how people can put up with these huge power bricks. Just because you can hide it under a desk it doesn't mean it's not there.

And speaking of all in ones, the iMac doesn't have a power brick either. If you screw your NUC to the back of a monitor/tv you will end up with two power bricks if you're unlucky. They may fit under the desk, or the cable may be too short and you'd have to keep one or both on the desk. I don't see the advantage.

Apple has other, significant problems right now, but the devices not being mini enough isn't one of them.
It doesn’t. This is also in the full version.
I can't tell you what you should do, because that depends on so many details that only you are aware of.

I will tell you what I would like to hear from one of my employees if they were in a situation similar to yours.

I would like the employee to let me know they have something important to talk about. If remote, I would prefer this conversation to happen either by video teleconference, or by phone. I would not want this conversation via Slack, email, or other written medium, as text is not expressive enough.

I would like to hear it explained more or less the way you explained it here. In your post, you describe the condition, how it affects you personally and professionally, the dilemma you find yourself in, and you express concern about the company. Any normal manager would respond with compassion and tell you to take some time off and go see a specialist.

It is always difficult for a manager when someone on their team takes unexpected time off. This is especially so in crunch-time situations. However, it is literally their job to manage such situations, even in difficult circumstances.

Employees getting sick or requiring time off due to a medical situation is a normal situation, and there are various medical conditions that warrant time off and care. Whether it is a broken wrist, birth of a child, or a mental condition, they should be treated seriously and with compassion.
