I'm not sure why this is the case. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to edit things that are in the sandbox (you create it in the first place, after all), whilst making sure things in the sandbox can't access anything outside it. AFAICT, it's basically just running as a different user. User user gets edit access, Epic user only gets access to its own folder.
Note that the original reddit thread[1] is pretty suspect and alarmist. The OP is clearly inexperienced with the process inspection tools they are playing around with. They complain about the launcher using minified JS, opening dlls, and checking root certificates among other things all of which are very normal things for a desktop application to do.

My degree surely helped, but what got my foot in the door was a particularly interesting project I worked on the year before.

As for salary, it depends on the company. In many places, this number would indeed be low. (See Netflix with its $300-$400k starting salaries.) At my company, it's maybe on the low-mid of the scale for employees who've had my position for a few years. (Last I checked, the range is approx. $200-$300k TC.) However, I considered it a very high offer indeed, given the large "gap" and general lack of corporate experience on my resume. I actually got in one level higher than I thought I would. (Though I've since come to realize that it was definitely the right slot for me.)
In the likely event that this is another MCAS related crash, I see only two possible reasons:

1. Boeing's suggested process (including flipping the two trim switches and spinning a wheel) does not work for some reason.

-or-

2. The Ethiopian pilots did not follow this process.

I see #1 as putting a huge, huge amount of blame on Boeing and the FAA - especially given their months of "safe plane" reaction after Lion Air and their cavalier few days after Ethopian.

I see #2 as still keeping a good deal of blame on Boeing, but also adding a significant training+capability element to Ethiopian and the pilots. Since Lion Air, how much had Boeing done to specify that the 737-MAX and the 737-NG are not the same plane and require different things to be aware of? Could a 737-MAX pilot really not have run through in their head a thousand times what MCAS related issues look like and what they would do if they started having those issues?
Can you share your friends backgrounds that go to data engineers?
The waste is many orders of magnitude more radioactive than the fuel. The fuel itself is fissile, meaning it can split when hit with a neutron. Radioactivity is a measure of how often an isotope will spontaneously split on its own. The fresh fuel gives off very little radiation and it can be handled with nothing more than a pair of latex gloves, and the gloves are only necessary to keep the handler's greasy grubby mitts off of the expensive and highly clean and pure fuel bundle. The spent fuel is so radioactive that it has to be stored underwater for at least 3 years and commonly up to 10 because the radiation is enough to heat up the fuel to unsafe temperatures before that time.

Nuclear is much cleaner than fossil fuels though, you're right about that, natural gas has some radon mixed in that just gets vented to the atmosphere and coal ash that makes it past whatever filtering system the power plant uses releases far more radiation than nuclear plants could during normal operation.
I can relate, the name is so intimidating the first time I heard it.

Agreed that Blind is a crap community, but their numbers are more accurate than I've seen anywhere else (including levels.fyi).
Interesting in its own right, but the actual heavy lifting here was done by the vscode team; in how they envisioned and implemented the clean separation of UI and backend (such as language server protocol).

There are other previous attempts at running vscode in the browser - such as Ives Van Hoorne's very popular https://codesanbox.io. Curious if code is being shared between these projects.

Yes, I agree with your argument here. But comparing Bird to mom and pop bike rentals is wrong for the same reason that comparing Uber to traditional taxi companies (or comparing Cragslist to traditional classifieds, etc) is wrong.
> Certainly he shouldn't.

Don't think I agree with this. The president shouldn't have to be involved. But if the FAA is acting in a bone headed manner, the president, as the head of the executive, is the check & balance that can get involved and fix the problem. Likewise the president is the one ultimately responsible to the people for the FAA's actions.

We don't know what extent Trump influenced the decision, but he was certainly involved, he made the announcement after all [0].

Tesla reveals Model Y for 2020: What's inside
If you work on the things I do, suggesting that there is a viable alternative to C++ is ridiculous.

I’d love to write everything in Python & Rust, personally, but it’s just not a viable option for many types of projects.

With the smallest amount of self discipline, C++ is safe, expressive, maintainable, cross platform, and interoperable.

I rather like that it’s not forcing training wheels on my every statement and condescendly telling me what I’m allowed to do.

Of course, it means that code from the article’s example is possible. You can write code like a sloppy asshole in any language. Don’t blame the scissors if someone decides to start running while holding a pair.

I was thinking about what you call '#2' the other day, when a family member remarked that the FAA was right to keep the planes in the sky because US airline unions felt like their pilots had received adequate advice and information from Boeing.

I'm not sure where they got that from, but why would it be okay if the US pilots got training immediately, while others had to wait?
The good thing of these type of question is it can be practiced, and it's pretty much "standard". Once you comfortable with it you can essentially interview anywhere.
Yep and keeping in touch with the flow of actual fake stories. These places FB is the internet and that has bad consequences for sure.
>"A series of choices made when the idea that there would ever be more than two regions, leave them unfortunately stuck having to tie regions together to a limited degree (bucket names are global)."

The Amazon leased 767 that crashed was a full on cargo version. Cargo is stored in large containers. And the aircraft filled with them. Things shifting in those tend to only shift inside the container. Unless Amazon was shipping lead bricks I don't think any cargo escaped the containers.
Googler here, but haven't looked at any of the details of this incident.

One of the tricky things about canaried releases and staggered rollouts is that to implement them, you need another layer of configuration to manage that. And then that's another potential source of outages - and scary ones too, because your configuration is so closely tied to prod itself, . It's kind of the whole "my test needs a test, and the test of my test needs a test, and ..." issue.

Plus, you can only spend so much time testing out disaster scenarios before other priorities take over - if your customers are asking for features A, B, C, well, at some point it becomes a judgment call whether you spend time on the new features or testing the resiliency of your service. Even when you do test the hell out it, it's hard to guarantee you've tested literally every edge case.

The other thing is that, as you point out, as you add more and more mitigations for failure scenarios that you have experience with, the fraction of the failures that you've never seen before starts to increase. It's somewhat obvious, because by definition a regression test safeguards against failures that you've experienced, but it's an important thing to keep in mind when thinking about exactly what the tests you do write will keep you safe from.
Toxic air tears apart Mongolians
The water lost to cooling ends up as steam and then precipitation. So it doesn't exactly delete water, it just disperses it. Some of it will fall straight back into the same river systems. A lot of it would probably be absorbed into the local water table—which is valuable if the table is already being tapped.

Does anyone know if there's any modelling to show how widely such activity disperses water? How much of the water is expected to land somewhere functionally useless (e.g. into oceans)?

Or, if they built a desalination plant next to each nuclear plant, would they be able to compensate for the water loss efficiently?
Well assuming the purpose are to select candidate that can handle those then it doesn't make sense to eliminate those.

He is right about one thing - looking at the maintenance logbook is a standard part of any preflight. If you looked at the logbook and saw that the maintenance team had been dueling with the MCAS system and that it had activated inappropriately on four prior occasions, that really should have been at the front of their minds.

It seriously is a standard heads-up to alert you to any potential issues that might occur with the aircraft. Inoperative systems, etc.

Even in general aviation, if you look at the logbook and see this is the first time this aircraft has flown since an engine teardown, you want to be aware of that in the light of monitoring your engine's readouts. If you suddenly see that the oil pressure is dropping or something, that's something you would immediately want to take seriously. Recent maintenance can be the difference between "I'll have the mechanic look at that when I get back" and immediately taking corrective action.

There was a plane (Cessna iirc) nearby me that went down from a similar issue. When you change the oil there is a drain tube and some leftover oil tends to drip out all over the cowling. The mechanic apparently got in the habit of rolling up some paper towel and shoving it in the drain tube to absorb the drips. Well, this time he forgot to close the drain cock. It held enough pressure to take off apparently, then blew out in-flight and the engine seized. You gotta watch for that stuff, first person to fly an aircraft after a maintenance issue needs to be aware of it.

(immediately taking corrective action is safer but planes are complex and if you immediately turned around the first time an engine ran a little hot you'd never get anywhere. They have redundant systems for a reason, and if anything commercial airliners are even more redundant and even more willing to fly with inoperative non-essential equipment, because there's so much money on the line. Commercial airliners fly with equipment that's broken literally all the time, there is very probably broken equipment on any given flight you take... more like probably several pieces broken.)

Not to say that the pilots here didn't do everything right... we don't know yet either way. Boeing certainly has some 'splaining to do regardless, there are design flaws here that apparently have caused this problem to occur quite frequently. Just because you hope the pilots would have caught it doesn't mean you want to tempt fate repeatedly.

Ask HN: Reporting Corporate Misconduct?
I've got a bit of a dilemma that I'd appreciate some advice on.

In the course of doing market research for a startup (part-time - I have a small amount of equity but don't get paid otherwise), I discovered that a competitor plagiarized at least one of their white-papers from a published academic article. It's pretty unambiguous - entire paragraphs lifted. This competitor was acquired by a larger company in an adjacent space by the time I discovered this. Making matters even trickier, this larger company had at one point for a partnership and/or acquisition.

Now the acquiring company is, due to the acquisition, competing with us.

If someone who had no conflicts of interest had discovered this, what would be the most responsible method of disclosing this, and to who? I want to understand what the general practice is in this kind of situation, so as to avoid tainting the accusation with the appearance of self-interest. Telling potential clients or partners about it, especially those who are doing business with other company, seems like it would be looked upon poorly even though the information is accurate. Telling the other company about their baggage is another alternative, but there are a lot of ways that could go wrong too. Doing nothing doesn't seem right, but it may very well be the best choice from an ethical perspective, if not from a financial one. I want to make sure we do the right thing!

All advice appreciated. I'm happy to answer further questions about the situation as long as they don't go into too much detail.

Art Basel Report Suggests Growing Inequality Is Endangering the Art Market(2017)
> There was no way to run multiple VMs.

In this example on Ubuntu "visual" is the name of the VM file, and there are 2 different image files with different code in them "visualnc64.im" and "quad.im".

$ /opt/src/vw8.3pul/bin/visual /opt/src/vw8.3pul/image/visualnc64.im &
[1] 8689

$ /opt/src/vw8.3pul/bin/visual /opt/src/vw8.3pul/image/quad.im &

That's created 2 separate OS processes, each OS process is running an instance of the Smalltalk VM, and each Smalltalk VM opened a different Smalltalk image containing different code.

No it hasn't.
