Yes, it should be just a css file.

But how cool is that? A css file. Not as cool and professional as a 'Design System for <frameworkname>'.

Also, in my experience is that once a developer has mastered a framework, they are so proud of it the tie everything to the framework. To pledge their allegiance. And to signal to the pack "Hey, I'm part of the family!".

It’s not an accusation - he literally admitted he did it, and just labeled it as a “poor judgement” moment.

It is unclear if he thinks the poor judgement was harassment, or thinking he could get away with it.

It's not irrational. People often don't know what they want, or think they know but often devise overly elaborate solutions. Also, building before asking means you can potentially create a new market with a new product that's never been seen before, which is far more lucrative.

I suppose the limitation of use of nuclear weapons stems firmly form public understanding of their dangers (even if the understanding is vague), and thus public disapproval.

One thing to do about the blind engagement machines is to make more people more aware of them. Think about ways people handle hazardous substances. Knowing that a substance is hazardous is the most important bit, to my mind.

If we fundamentally think big tech is bad, splitting them up will make the go much faster and it can get worse. Big companies move slower than smaller more nimble companies. The answer is not splitting up but just make them accountable for KPIs that are good for society.

Throw some "cloud blockchain" in the mix and it should be ready for immediate global deployment. I can almost taste the synergy.
I really like the "work on bugfixes and small features".

There's lots of coding work that is easy to drop at a moment's notice and not mess up other work, schedules, etc.

Tooling is another one. Find processes that could use a nicer tool.
My point is exactly not having to impose regulation.

The power to move away is already in the people's hands. You can do it at any moment, without a governmental mandate.

The point is to use this power. But first people have to recognize their power, and learn to use it a bit.
Thanks, fixed it :)
The problem is that the only solution is that every single government brings their whole IT stacks in land, which naturally does not scale.

Yeah, 100% agreed. Sorry - I was responding specifically to the question of whether HR should be in the loop, and didn't intend to suggest that the civil courts shouldn't also be part of it.

I haven't been on Twitter in over a year, but lists already exist, don't they? So the filters already exist.
Let me see my photos (and only my photos) on the map view. This used to be a link on my profile, I used it often to track photos to locations. Now the map view seems to just be a global view of everyone bunched together.

Too much of searching currently is based on keyword. But photos should be able to be easily searched other ways, like date, location, color, etc. If I could search all of those and limit it to myself or a friends photostream it would really help me find what I'm looking for.
Maybe a small improvement, but in 2018 changing the physical location of data does not of course keep it safe.

Sorry to make an off-topic comment, but the SFGate website is insufferable. There's about 3 videos playing at once, one of which I think is an ad, a dynamically loaded chum box, a subscribe-now modal that navigated me away even when I clicked the X, and it the page is clearly redrawing too often since scrolling and highlighting seems jumpy.
So no 90 million employee payoff for this mid ranking fellow then?

I know nothing of the case but this feels like another 'I was at a party two years ago and someone made an unwanted advance' allegation.

Did the accuser subsequently join Google? Was her job competitive to the accused and was he inappropriate at work after this alleged event?

Given Google being conceived and founded at Burning Man and their founders 'interesting' relationships with partners running Youtube etc the whole premise of HR decisions based on allegations appears to be very one sided towards any accuser.

Audacious | Senior Frontend Developer | $150k - $175k + equity + benefits | ONSITE in Los Angeles | audacious.io (http://www.audacious.io/)

Imagine an intuitive, modern CRM, with omnichannel customer communications, powered by an innovative workflow engine, connected to a lead ecosystem marketplace, extendable through a developer platform. That's Audacious.

You are a senior frontend developer with a sense of aesthetics, well versed in modern JavaScript (ES6), CSS, HTML and the modern frontend build stack. You are reasonably meticulous and understand general interface design in a user experience context. You have an solid understanding of React and knowledge of different backend API interface types (GraphQL, RESTful). Most of all you're hungry to make your mark and fulfill your destiny.

We're inspired by gorgeous and blazingly-fast products (Superhuman), stupid simple on-boarding (Stripe), infographics and actionable data (FiveThirtyEight), distributed collaborative development and CI (Github), testing bad-ass-ery ("How Google Tests Software"), and building the company culture we dream about.

This role is exclusively onsite in Downtown Los Angeles.

If you are interested please email hello (at) audacious (dot) io
Let's start with the companies that voted for EME DMCA first. I'm sure TBL would be happy to release the list from the secret vote they had for it at the W3C.

Seriously, it's bad optics going around and criticizing everybody else for not holding power accountable when you don't have your own house in order. When it came time to stand up to this power, Tim actively defended their interests. I suppose most people have already forgotten about it, but I never will, and neither will my friends that could go to jail for trying to research the security of binary crap in people's browsers.
Right, but, you'll tell a new customer you will have the product ready for them quickly, but because you didn't have a stakeholder that would, you're running the risk trying to sell them a product that wouldn't solve their particular problem (feature mismatch).

Maybe if you believe the limits of technology would be a blocker to solving your customer's vision of their problem, then a prototype before you have a stakeholder that would compensate you somehow is probably the right answer.

But I think you can easily confuse the business objectives with engineering objectives in making the assumption that the prototypical solution is representative of the customer's vision of the solution.

It's not that I think you or a business can't live with that dissonance, I think it may open you up to that problem.

> I was just thinking about this the other day: kids should probably get more exposure to cryptography, maybe even before high school

> So, maybe the solution here is indeed to ask parents to come and teach students some bits of their speciality?

My SO taught HS Math for 2 years in the US. One in a VERY low income school, one in a 100% college acceptance rate school. Via what we talked about over dinners at night, I learned that what kids need is food and guardians that aren't abusive/neglectful. Honestly, ~30% of her students, from either school, would not eat at all over the weekend. No, not that they would eat Cheetos or drink Coke. They plain-jane went hungry. Long weekends were not a source of excitement for them. Their folks either didn't have the money or just didn't care. The 100% college acceptance rate school fed the kids breakfast and lunch each day, for free. That was likely the largest single contributor to the success of the school (unproven, granted).

So, if you are US based and want to help out with these issues, PLEASE DO! A lot of kids really do need very simple things like food or pencils. It's amazing how smart kids are if you just give them a sandwich and a pen to work with. They just amaze you.

Why are these people always readily identifiable? You can’t trust anyone who wears a sports jacket and sneakers.
Session tokens (an unguessable identifier that identifies server-side stored session data), while they don't need to be encrypted or signed, the identifier should usually be cryptographically random, however, so you can still get into trouble there.

JWTs don't have to be encrypted. (And IME, typically aren't.) They need to be signed, but the algorithms that do this are common, well-understood algorithms. Some of them are likely being used by TLS to protect your session anyways. If they're not foolproof, you have bigger issues than JWT.

If you are referring to the implementation, then sure, but the same concerns exist about your implementation of TLS, and the same advice applies: use a well-known, hopefully well tested library.
Curious; I'm also on 63 (though on Linux) and it is showing Flash here. Though I do have the plugin enabled, so maybe it defaults to it in that case.
I see. Thank you for clarifying. :)

Anyway, I'm still not convinced because when it comes to security I feel like it's a better idea to walk the well-trodden path, rather than invent new and exciting mechanisms. JWTs are useful for other stuff, but using them for security requires increasing back-end complexity quite a bit.
