The answer is hidden in your question: you own common stock. The investors got preferred stock. As the name implies, their stock has privileges. A common one is liquidation preference. They get their money back first, then the common shareholders get whatever is left.

For an extreme example, say the VC invested $10M for 10% of the company, and then the company doesn't manage to grow, and gets acquired for the same $10M amount. The initial VC gets the $10M back from the acquisition (they make their money back, no profit). Then there is $0 left, and the common shareholders (early employees and often founders) get nothing.

It's a contrived example, and there are many other complexities to such a deal, but you get the idea.

I also think it's probably better if you have your own sales slides, because other people's slides might not fit your presentation style.

I did prep a few sales presentations for my former boss though. He just didn't have the time.

There is usually a review though. Depending on what industry you're in you can't promise certain things, and often the company wants a bit more control over outward presentation.

The simplest answer is I am the only user currently so it doesn't matter. Even with users, a short down time to bring down the old images and bring up the new images should be manageable. If I ever got to a point where that wasn't sufficient then I would consider that project successful enough to merit investment into zero downtime strategies and probably its own VPS as well.

From a more technical side, I haven't seen an issue with Traefik when I take a container down and back up again. The only delay I would anticipate is when you bring a new service online for the first time and Traefik detects it and configures + fetches LetsEncrypt certs for it.
Good luck with that. There are too many belief sets, even for things like basic freedoms, for everyone to fall under a single law effectively.

I write software for distribution centers (DC) and end up traveling to a lot of these warehouses (not XPO in particular).

In my experience, it is a tedious job with long hours in a noisy environment. A lot of the DCs are run more like high schools, where employees are expected to know nothing and are not allowed to do anything without asking for permission unless it is during the normally scheduled time. I would not call it difficult work, but it certainly isn't fun.

That said, they are not all as terrible as this experience. It seems to largely depend on the mentality of the supervisors, as they have a great deal of authority over large numbers of people in the warehouse. Once you get above the supervisor level, management typically does not know or want to know about what is happening on the floor as long as the numbers are being hit and the conveyor keeps running.

I can't speak for the Guantanamo instance, but I can say that the US didn't use loans as leverage to build military bases. In most of the cases you cite they were put there to contain the Soviet Union and its allies. Often the national governments involved wanted or felt they needed the Americans (even if there were local reservations).

Not much about Lisp here. It describes the design of a microcode-based machine that could be used for all sorts of things. You could use it to implement a PDP-11, an x86, or whatever (though it's biased towards 32-bit machines).

I believe that equity is mostly SF thing.

One of my friends works in a startup in Berlin where he was offered equity as one of the founders (10th engender or sth like that). Chances that he will be able to liquidate them in foreseeable future is non existing.

Nobody else that I know was offered an equity, even though quite a lot of my friends work for well funded startups. I worked in some and nobody offered me anything else but a salary.

If I relocated near SF? Sure, there would be a possibility. If I was a rockstar and one of first 5 cofounders? Also yes, but I am not famous.

I am really skeptical about any such post, as I saw myself that some strategies that works in Silicon Valley do not work anywhere else and I am not into moving to the most spoiled IT region in the world.
Right so you're getting into deeper questions of what intelligence really means, and whether our measurements are meaningful in practical terms. Even if it was possible to genetically engineer humans with much higher IQs (and that is yet to be proven), there's still no evidence that those hypothetical supermen would end up ruling over us or having more children or whatever.

I disagree with your checklist. Assuming you are interviewing for a very early employee (first 10 at most), then all those are technical issues that you will be able to fix. That's not a problem, that's your job and you are good at it.

I would worry a lot more about the business itself. Does it make sense? Do you see a credible path to paying customers? And the most important of all: are the founders the right people to grow and lead this thing? Could be experience or passion (ideally they should score high on both).

Not necessarily, it depends on the egress architecture. There are ways to do corporate monitoring that cannot be done by your ISP.

Web content filters (aka Proxies) in a transparent mode deployment that are not performing TLS interception would not be able to monitor these queries if wrapped in TLS.

However, an explicit mode deployment and all 80/443 traffic enforced by an egress firewall through the proxy that was performing TLS interception can still monitor this traffic. In fact, even if you’re not brokering TLS, the GET method described can still leak the query (but not response) unless your client uses tunneling (ie. CONNECT method).

ISPs can’t force you to use an explicit proxy, but corporations can.

I probably should post this from a throwaway, but whatever...burn the boats.

I’m currently prepping for an interview at one of the big tech companies. It’s hard to push aside the thought that I’m a nobody who at best will spend years nipping at the toes of the hyper privileged individuals who are no more capable than me (in theory), yet who, because of their birth rights (parents, wealth, connections, etc), are in a position of power where their subjective desires will dictate what I do and say with my life (at least 1/3 of it, including the 1/3 where I’m unconscious). It’s even harder to think that as time goes on, this paradigm will only grow further. Just thinking about the updates I’ll make to my resume to pass the test, and how I’ll have to squeeze in the right buzz words all while displaying a cheery demeanor as though this is all a favor to me - it saddens me. And then I consider how in 5, 20, 50 years this whole process will be that much more nuanced and invasive...

This describes me exactly. I've been self-employed for over a decade, I do very well at it, I have a growing "side hustle" helping other freelancers and consultants build stronger businesses, and it's close to taking over as my dominant source of income.

But every six to twelve months I just get really, really tired and I think about getting a job at one of the big tech companies. I think I could probably make as much or more over the next 10-20 years as I will working for myself, and it doesn't seem like the worst gig. It seems emotionally much easier than what I'm doing now.

But one of the biggest things that holds me back is the feeling you describe of just being a nobody cog in the wheel. Can I do that? It sounds crushing, but I can't decide if that's my ego, me being unrealistic, me placing too much value and identity on career and work and money, etc.

When I was in my 20s, I had an opportunity to go work directly for a founder of one of these companies. Everyone knows his name. He was looking for a family tech manager to basically manage all the technology for his houses around the world, yachts, private jets, etc. I deliberated for days about even interviewing for this gig. I did, but didn't get the job in the end. Maybe for the best. But the reason I didn't know if I wanted it was that I felt pretty sure that the billionaire across the table never would have taken that job in his 20s. So why was I?

And one of the things I learned that day after spending an hour with this guy was this: he's nothing special. Yeah, he's smart, and he's worked hard, but I didn't see anything there that seemed foreign to me. And that's why I've been self-employed for the last decade, and why I suspect I'll never have a job again. Because it just seems unbearable to accept defeat and get a job working for someone who got lucky, yes, but also didn't just accept defeat and get a job when it was on the table for them.

Enough rambling, back to work!

I've had Android tablets, Windows tablets, and iPads. Of all of them, only my iPad has really earned a place in my computing life; it's done so so well in fact that I sold my MacBook Pro almost a year ago and haven't had a laptop of my own since. I do have an MBP issued by my employer, but I rarely use it for anything personal and when I do it's nothing more than light web browsing.

Android tablets are "good enough", especially for web browsing. I'd go as far as to say they're better for that purpose because they allow you to fully integrate a third-party browser. They fall short when it comes to app selection and integration across different devices, though. I often tether my MBP to my iPad via BlueTooth, and it's completely painless. That's not easy to set up on Android, and even when I've done so in the past, the battery life suffered significantly and the connection failed often for no discernible reason.

Windows tablets are better than Android IMO, but they suffer badly from lack of UI support. Even today, neither Firefox nor Chrome support touch interactions are well as Edge - and Edge isn't great. Trying to use programs designed for use with a keyboard and mouse on a tablet is painful at best. It's a nice idea, and I'd be willing to try a new Surface device, but as of about a year ago they just weren't worth the cost to me.

For me, iPads hit the sweet spot - they're fast, have good battery life, integrate well with my MBP, and have the best selection of apps. The browser support is really the only complaint I have about iOS, and it's not a deal-killer for me. Safari is a good browser.
That doesn’t prove anything because those countries were also much safer than the US before they had gun control. https://sites.nationalacademies.org/cs/groups/dbassesite/doc... (page 2).

Until 1978, you could buy handguns and automatic weapons in Canada without a license. You could buy rifles without a license until the 1990s. But the gap in US-Canadian homicide rates was the lowest in 1960. And the gap was largest during the first 40 years of the 20th century, before Canada required licensing and background checks.

Australia shows the same pattern. It introduced major gun control in the 1990s. But the gap in US-Australian homicide rates actually shrank after that time: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c6/Gu...

Although that's rarely the case. At some point, your OS upgrade--which you probably have to do for security reasons--breaks your five year old program. Or the program doesn't handle some new format or peripheral, etc.

I don't really disagree with your basic point. I dislike money leaks. For online services of various types, I mostly have no choice but I at least want to minimize them with on-prem software--especially for things I only use every now and then.

Ask HN: Best tools for large code base documentation?
We are grappling with code documentation at work (large Django application).
We use Python's docstrings and JIRA's confluence but they are not enough. Confluence is not very easy to maintain and as somewhat distant from developers' daily workflow -- rarely gazed upon. Docstrings are all right -- but we don't do much with them. I know of Sphinx and that is a tool we are thinking about, but we want to do a proper research first, so here is my question for you today: what documentation tools do you use? What's your favourite and why?

+1 for finding out how much power individual board members have, although you may have to dig into the history of the startup, press releases, and ask rank and file staff members about recent events. The Board can easily kick out the CEO and anyone they hired without much notification.
I hope you would be correct, that lots of people would notice a compromise, though I'm not convinced that this would be the case since the attacker could pretend to be the single committer.

> How many scenarios are there where a compromise wouldn’t include GPG keys or the attacker simply uploading their own key?

If the user's github credentials were compromised (lots of ways for that to happen which don't involve their system/keys being compromised, like using the same password across sites), then using GPG signatures would still allow cloners to check/detect problems since they wouldn't have the maliciously-updated github GPG key (or they might be one of the few folks still using the Web of Trust).

Furthermore, it's possible to have a local system compromise that doesn't give access to GPG keys, as keys could either be password protected or kept on a separate system that's primarily used for signatures (not extreme for a system that distributes law).

Also, signatures not only protect the latest commit, they also sign the previous commit hash(es), protecting previous commits and preventing a history rewrite. Without them, a history rewrite that left recent commits unchanged but modified some text could have the chance to go unnoticed.

> The problem is that the mechanics used for corporate monitoring are almost exactly the same mechanics used for your ISP spy on you or censor things.

I disagree. With SSL getting more and more widely deployed, corporate monitoring has no choice but to add re-encrypting proxies.

In that case, all SSL sites you are visiting are signed by a company internal certificate which is more or less obvious depending on the browser (if you ask me, browsers don't make this nearly as obvious as they should)

However, this kind of monitoring absolutely continues to work fine even if the browser is using DNS over HTTPS.

What DoH does break though, is internal DNS resolution of internal intranet hosts. Those would obviously be corporate owned as they would obviously have a corporation specific domain anyways, so no MitM is needed anyways because the admin can just look at the traffic on the server side.

This means that as DoH becomes more widely used, a corporation has only two options to continue to be able to allow users to connect to internal sites, both of which are worse from a security standpoint than the status-quo:

* they could assign publicly resolvable names to all of their internal hosts. This is likely to cause issues with IDS systems which assume that to be a DNS reflection attack and it of course also means that they now have to leak internal names to the public which obviously isn't desirable.

* they could deploy browsers with a modified configuration. Now most corporation already do that anyways to deploy their internal monitoring cert, but some smaller companies might not be interested in monitoring their users and right now they can ship original browser installers from their original source with their original config whereas in the future they will need to use group policies or custom installers, both of which are less trustworthy for a user than the default installers with the default config (who knows what that group policy / custom installer is doing alongside of configuring DoH).

So while option 1 is worse for overall corporate security, option 2 is worse for security and trust for individual users when the corporation is not currently doing any monitoring.

This security downgrade hurts even more in light of the fact that real SSL interception is not at all stopped by this, so already malicious actors can continue to be malicious, but good faith actors have to accept a significant downgrade in either user-trustworthiness or security.

I do not think this is a fair trade-off.
