We will see less and less devs coming out in the open like this, and that's sad.

The dev isn't without a fault though. The statement around using old browsers is like not vaccinated is too offensive. Especially, when anti-vaccinated group is real and often associated with being dumb.

But some people (not the dev) in that thread are just toxic.
An oversimplified version of the arguments against JWT for session management (as well as the JOSE specification for signing and encryption) ...

1. The specification has points of ambiguity that have led to a number of flawed implementations.
2. JWT is saddled with unnecessary complexity which also contributes to recurring implementation flaws.
3. JWT increases the complexity of session revocation in contrast to a simple, stateless session ID.

The arguments and counter-arguments are a bit more involved, but be aware that by the time you account for the downsides, you may have negated the value you hoped to gain from stateless web tokens.

If you can use a simple session id, use it. If you need JWT to support external authentication providers, use a short expiration and swap the (fully verified) token for a session id.
If that isn't corruption I don't know what is.

Just have a method of anonymizing the gift giver's identity? That way they can still feel appreciated for their past actions without knowing exactly whom the gift came from.
> Cash in the bank already is "electronic money". Cryptocurrency doesn't add any benefits [...]

Why bother replying to comments in threads about cryptocurrency if they don't have any benefit ? Clearly now that cryptocurrency long speculators have pretty much all died, cryptocurrency should just disappear by itself if it doesn't have any use over fiat. Or do you not believe in your own opinion ?
I would argue that jazz is largely viewed as background music now. People go to a jazz club to...talk. If they wanted to listen to the music they'd go to a rock concert.

Edit: Another thought, maybe a large segment of modern jazz is uninspired renditions of the old greats, and maybe that's why people don't give it much credence? I don't go to a lot of jazz clubs, so I can't really say. Perhaps more people would listen to modern jazz if it was so groundbreaking it knocked them off their feet...unfortunately that honor seems to go to rock, hip-hop, electronica, and such these days.

I had my credit union's car purchasing department handle my car purchase. Did everything over email - I told them what I wanted and in what color, they did the legwork to find a dealer that had what I wanted. Emailed me a quote, then the dealer delivered it to my door.

No haggling, no visiting dealers, just email and signing some papers.
This. Every jazz club I've been to (save for the most prestigious like Blue Note) are lively events full of socializing.
"But even token gifts such as a box of chocolates or a coffee mug can have a surprisingly large (albeit subconscious) effect. Trinkets and baubles – small gifts of all kinds – help to establish a friendly relationship between the gift-giver and the gift recipient. As one researcher astutely observes, people who don’t recognize the power of small gifts are precisely those most likely to be influenced, because their defences are down."

I firmly believe in this.

Every year for Christmas I give out $1 scratch-and-win cards to any and all of my co-workers I know that are around for the holidays, and personal Christmas cards to all of the higher ups, including the CEO. It costs me around $100, but I feel like over the course of the year I get way more than $100 in good will from the recipients.

The pilots did not need to diagnose the system. It would have been obvious that the trim system was running, and was causing the nose down. The trim cutoff systems are right there on the center console. They dealt with the issue for 12 minutes, lightning reflexes were not necessary.

The NTSB will of course look into the CVR, the pilots' training, background and track record to try to figure out why they did not use the cutoff switches. I'm very curious about that.

Similar types of accidents have occurred in the past and turned out to be CRM (Cockpit Resource Management) issues, where the copilot recognized what was wrong but was intimidated by the pilot into doing nothing.
I am not familiar with the Swift world - a quick look at the site says "Objective-C not present on Linux" .. I assume that means the GUI parts also ?

I am not sure how this plays out, if you think.. Apple gets the GUI builder only on Apple products, but "community" builds the plumbing, while small groups at Apple or elsewhere, are paid to make sure plumbing + GUI is advancing .. ? If this is roughly true, what benefit does the non-Apple world get here?
No, this is paranoia to the extreme.

How did you get a decent price? My employer offers a similar service as part of the benefits program. You print out a piece of paper, take it to the dealer, and get a prenegotiated price. Sounds amazing in theory until you do more research and realize you’re still paying $1000s more.
Ask HN: What should I know before I graduate?
I'm an American college student, on track to finish my 4 year Bachelor of Science in Computer Science in May of 2020. A lot of my time in college has been spent doing university-required courses and as a result I don't feel like I know... anything, really, about programming as far as finding work goes.

I have a Github but I've never put anything on there because my school projects have mostly been too simple to really have a place there. I don't feel comfortable forking existing projects either. Through school, I've learned Java and Python, with a bit of C# in the context of Unity as well as some incredibly basic bash/Powershell scripting.

I've had an internship the last few years, but it's been mostly IT help desk, with my duties mostly consisting of answering phones and fixing hardware instead of learning the ropes of development in a professional setting.

It feels like a lot of things sail right over my head, and I'm concerned they won't get touched on in the last 3 semesters so I'll be out on my own without enough working knowledge to find even entry-level jobs. Is it too late for me?

If you want to learn more you can Google the top vendors in the DMP space: Krux (now Salesforce DMP), BlueKai, LiveRamp, DataLogix, Acxiom [sic.] A couple of these offer "CRM Onboarding" (matching real names/addresses to anonymous cookies) but it doesn't work very well in practice and the real product is pools of anonymous cookies where even basic demographics like age and gender are unknown and can only be (badly) inferred. As far as I know, none of these companies offer any services in the "law-enforcement/government/political online surveillance" space you mention but I've never really researched that side of it.
Sorry, but you're making a lot of assumptions as to why this person, or anyone would have a large amount of video or photos.

They could be the guy taking photos of their kid's ball game, that parent's know they can reach out to for pictures of their own kid's goals as well. They might have to record regular meetings at a work or club for posterity/legal sake. Based on what they posted it possible they're a pro photog/videographer who is just looking for a better system than what they're using currently.

Take less video isn't applicable to the question at all.

As for my experience I do agree with the keep them on an HDD part though. Nothing beats raw storage capacity for me, and multi-terabyte drives are only getting cheaper. I've got one set for bulk items, and another for backups of anything worth keeping.

The only use case of XQuartz for me is the ability to ssh into a Linux server with X11 forward so I can remotely control the GUI app running in the server. That’s why I ask whether Noah would be good replacement for such purpose.

I agree with you that Mac users are persnickety about UI. In fact, one of my complaints on XQuartz is the lack of retina support. As for wayland, as far as I understand, it does not support network forwarding (yet?)

Why don't you just articulate some of the benefits instead of invoking bloviated sarcasm? The argument that "bitcoin exists so it must be useful" is pretty obviously fallacious logic.

Even the US has difficulty in maintaining a good SLBM capability. Russia neglected their submarine force for two decades, and had considerable weighting towards mobile land based second strike. It is conceivable that Russian SSBNs could be boxed in by conventional techniques, cyber and other attacks in infrastructure and crewing. Then, each SSBN might only get off one or two SLBMs before hyper kinetic projectiles arrive.

China has an immature SSBN fleet, and no meaningful airborne global strike capability.

The star wars ideas have proven to be fantasy, almost nothing works or can't easily be defeated, and it would cost a fortune, far more than the US can afford. The Russians and China should have been pressing for a ban on hypersonic testing and systems, instead of starting a new race that will leave their existing deterrent vulnerable. The Chinese think they will leapfrog the US to global dominance by showing a strategic lack of wisdom.

WiFi and Bluetooth only worked with the Dell drivers for example; I accidentally removed them due to an apt-get fuckup and it was hell to get it back.

I also had a lot of problems with the audio; I don't recall what the issue was there exactly (it's been 3/4 years).

I also had a XPS 15 at my current employer (not with Linux pre-installed), and that was even worse. The screen kept flickering (but only in Linux). I returned it to my employer and just got the x270. Been happy ever since :-)
I emailed a bunch of dealers before my CU told me this service existed and got quotes, and they were competitive. It differed like, $500-1000 from what area dealers were offering and i was willing to take it.

So, some legwork with a throwaway email address, but still very sofa compatibile.
Yes, that's a pretty short-sighted contradiction which untangled itself after some elementary analysis; most people are trying to figure out what the boundaries of corporate behavior are and should be.

I think ultimately I'm against censoring out 'alt-right' ideas and the like because we've already taken a pro-business approach to freedom like some of the commenters are suggesting (a more allowable use of the right to refuse service to anyone). This resulted in segregation by race and by gender, leading to unfair discrimination which ultimately resulted in a constitutional amendment disallowing it.

Since then, the right of a company to deny services to someone hasn't been exercised as much.

What happens if we begin to censor content on online platforms more readily, or in a more general sense censor ("curate") more readily? As happened in the 1950s, people will be unfairly excluded. Will we have to add another entry to the whitelist (another constitutional amendment) for this category of people then blindly continue in support of censorship? Will we be happy to create segregated circles where a group with superior technology clearly profits? In this case, I'm pretty obviously in support of allowing controversial content because freedom of expression is, in our culture, rightly (imo) regarded as important, discrimination has yielded poor outcomes in the past, and it is arrogant to think that we have figured out exactly what is acceptable to censor and to start actively censoring on that basis.
If you're willing to pay the dealer's quote, then car salesmen will love you and you'll have a great time at a dealership anyway.

The entire bullshit process begins when you try to get a price that doesn't have thousands of extra dollars in for the dealership.
exactly. My senator told me that this thing was not really used, was being discontinued, and there was no evidence that any banks or processors we discriminating based upon it.

However I am sure that banks were indeed discriminating based upon it, in some cases refuses accounts, in other cases charging higher fees. Taking advantage of marginalized access to banking based upon 'possible scrutiny as laid out by the choke point initiative'

There may not be any evidence in that they can refuse service or raise rates and blame this or whatever that, however lets be real. The govs telling private money handlers if they touch money that was part of these things we don't like, err, have a higher chance of fraud, then we will send fed investigators to investigate you - well...

We do indeed need better ways for people to use decentralized payment options like bitcoin cash, or , zcash, monero and similar. However from what I had seen some time ago, the hard part is getting money into the coin. Using CC or banks for this makes it harder in the US than I think it should be.
As it is always the case, determining when something is a paradigm shift or something truly great cannot be told instantly. It takes time. As a jazzdrummer myself (professional training and self-taught), I like what bevinahally said: that Jazz is not Mozart and Beethoven, and it doesn't have to be reproduced perfectly. Jazz is alive and sparkling. Especially London is a growing scene.

In my view, this time will be viewed as a paradigm shift, because you can see a lot of young and really talented players mixing up what is known as jazz with influences from techno and hip-hop (huh, what a fun twist). Yes, if you are looking for jazz as you are taught in school (say Coltrane), that still exists, but it's to me boring. Has been done.

I want to give you some examples to listen to, and you will hear what I mean. The drums use ghost notes quite heavily, 7th chords are turned into 11th and 13th chords, there are less changes in tonality. Rhythm is more straight, tighter. It get's you going!

Can you elaborate on your horrible experience? I bought a new car for the first time this year. I went to the Toyota dealer with my wife, we drove three cars, and decided the Corolla iM would be enough for 95% of our needs. We came back the next day and filled out all the paper work.

Of course, they did try to get us to buy a bunch of pointles s addons and insurances, so it was annoying to have to say "No" over and over again to those.

The ads should have an easy to use way of giving feedback that actually does something the viewer wants. For instance, it could allow the viewer to say (with a couple clicks, and without leaving the page):

I already purchased this

I already purchased a competing product

I am not interested in this anymore

I was never interested in this

I don't want this displayed because it might reveal something private to an onlooker (example: gift purchase for spouse)

I'm not interested in this product but I might be interested in competing products

I'm in the market for ______________ and I don't mind getting ads for them

Thanks for the reminder, not now but maybe later

Ads that track me really annoy me

This would allow the viewer to feel more in control (assuming the advertiser actually attempts to respect their wishes) as well as giving them valuable feedback (that they can decide for themselves how meaningful it is). It might reduce the number of people that install ad blockers.

I'm one of those that these ads are likely to be effective on: I often browse Amazon or Ebay and don't make a purchase, but will purchase it later when I'm reminded and am in the right mood to spend a bit of money. I don't mind them tracking me....most of the time. Right now I'm seeing a lot of ads for skateboard wheels, digital pianos and Dremel bits.... and I actually kind of like those ads because those are things that make me happy, and I have no ill will whatsoever for people that manufacture those things. I also have no ill will for the site I am on and would like them to have a revenue model.

But I don't want them constantly trying to sell me women's bikinis just because, in a moment of weakness or boredom, I clicked on a picture of a cute girl because I wanted to see it bigger....and they won't simply let me tell them that.
