> but I feel like you'd get less freedom in your sexual life if everybody was talking openly about it. Part of why I think that way is: people have weird fetishes for example, you could think in a society where you can talk openly about sex and you sexual life you could talk about your weird fetish, but I don't think that's the case, only "popular" fetishes / sexual preferences would be discussed, and "weird" fetishes / sexual preferences would be seen as degenerate.

Likely exactly the other way around: people would hear other people having weird fetishes, and they would understand that most people have this weird side to them, and they would be more ok with their own weirdness.
Yeh but does it really matter ?
Why should people care ?

I mean if you look at the planet we have at least 1 billion people worried where their next meal is gonna come from. We have 1 billion people on anti depressants because they have to do mind dulling jobs, working themselves to exhaustion making "electric car" ...

Why the fuck should people give a flying fuck that someone wants to go to mars, especially when they don't have money to take the buss.

If I were in the market for this, I'd be buying the 35k model with the expectation that the modding community will unlock those extra features in short order. In fact I'd bet that all the features on the car are a set of Boolean flags on every vehicle and as soon as you have a shell on the thing, changing the flags to enable any feature will be simple. Add a simple Cron to keep the flags set as you like even after an update, and another Cron to start a background root SSH session for continued access after updates.

> ... at least Uber is trying to position itself as a logistics company instead of a mobility company, which really doesn't make sense (mobility is an abstract concept that I think can't be definied as an industry).

Logistics: conveying goods;

Mobility: conveying people;

Uber is both and more. Those sectors are too small for their ambitions -- essentially they think they are in the transportation business which encompasses logistics, mobility and more.

Surely you'll have heard of Uber Elevate [0] which is a flying taxi service to augment urban mobility and of course there is Uber Freight [1], a haulage business that was supposed to benefit from their Otto acquisition, which built self-driving trucks.

Same here, only thing to add that my number of years before I can consider a database production ready is closer to 10 years. I am willing to make an exception only if a major company with scale and engineering resources uses it and willing to publicly talk about it. RocksDB falls into this category, for example.

> But it cant really present the million of other types of vulnerabilities, such as mis-configuration, wrong logic in the code, races, etc

It can prevent multiple types of data-races.

It has nullable-types as an option (I.e. not the default), and not checking for null is a type-error flagged by the compiler.

It has checked array-access, preventing out of bound reads.

It has immutability by default, preventing accidentally modifying data meant to stay constant.

Etc etc.

All of this together help creating higher quality, more secure code.

If you can have all those errors go away for “free”, why choose a language like C where all of these errors are possible?
I don't think that this is a targeted attack.

Seems more like a way of showing "I got access to 5493973 passwords and to show that, instead of picking some random users, I'll pick the one responsible for the shoddy security".
> in today's world it is a great way to "succeed"

Yes, until you piss off too many people around you with your excessive confidence- which includes a sense of superiority and the feeling of being immune from the consequences of evil or hostile actions.

And if you made everybody around you an enemy rather than a friend, sooner or later you'll pay the consequences.
So, EdgeQL is closer (than SQL) to relational algebra as it was originally envisioned? Did Tutorial D have any influence on the language and the system?
I once had a midsized startup doing something very similar to my small startup try and recruit me aggressively, they sent an NDA to sign and said i couldn’t even speak to interviewers until I did. (Consider how dangerous this is given the similar products.)

I told them I’d sign the NDA if all my interviewers also signed one from me, nice way to end the discussion.

My point is, if there is something you don’t like and it isn’t common, a way to decline is to decline the job. If it is a widespread practice, and unfair, then we need legislation.

There is a huge difference between the state and the poeple. And they should be trated respectively.

What Julian Assange did was for the best of all poeple, not for the state.

It also follows that the state are made of the poeple, for the poeple. So anything that is "good" for the poeple, the state should do.

While this might be a valid point, I really don't like the manner in which it is expressed. Feigned surprise, pretend humility and, most importantly, lack of basic respect towards fellow developer(s).
Apple Card [1] and now Coinbase Card [2] hmmm…

I have thought about this many times in the past: How are big companies able to steal these ideas so fast?

Actually, “steal” may not be the correct word, but I don’t think this was a coincidence. Knowing how secretive Apple is, I am surprised that Coinbase was able to work on this project (also in secret?) without them noticing. Or maybe they noticed but didn’t care? Which is even more bizarre considering how sensitive Apple lawyers are with their unreleased projects. There must be some underground market of corporate secrets that I am not aware of because I cannot explain how two companies can work in the same project more or less at the same time without it being the product of a stolen idea.

I had the same train of thought just a few weeks ago when Google announced project Stadia [3] and then Apple announced Arcade [4]. I know what you are going to say, “These two projects are very different”, well yes, they are, but they seem to have the same ingredients: big-4 creates platform for games. Maybe these are really simple coincidences, and I’m just paranoid.

It does help them a little. If their market cap is higher it's cheaper for them to raise capital. It's also kind of a moral support thing. I bought a second share since I posted that. I am also gambling, but it's like .01% or less of my retirement so I don't think I'm being too risky.

I also bought a model 3. Which actually does help them a little. They need sales more than they need people to buy shares on the secondary market. That's not why I bought it though. I bought it because it was the first BEV with a useful range I could afford.

I implore the hacker to stop. The 7 users of Matrix are very concerned about the future of the service.
edge cases... haven't been big problems in practice

Waymo doesn't acknowledge any "problem" that doesn't result in a collision. They don't seek input regarding such cases. Heck, most reputable trucking companies at least have a "his is my driving?" referral number clearly visible.

I've seen three cases where a driver had to take evasive action to dodge a Waymo fail in the past month alone.

Jony Ive actually was truly essential to the work behind the iPhone, so it wouldn't be unfair to single him out.
It seems the issue was developers using SSH agent forwarding which was abused to access the production environment.
We don't really have probably cause in that sense in the UK. Any driver can be stopped at any time purely to check documents if required - police don't need to have a reason.
Or it might be a clear, concise way of showing that he has access to the entire file without disclosing the information of random users, which also happens to be a particularly short command.
> (look at some of the terrible stuff Obama did with regard to drone strikes and military operations)

Not relevant to the discussion at hand, but I see this comment a lot. Yes, the Obama administration executed a lot more drone strikes than the Bush administration. However, there has been 2243 drone strikes in the first two years of the Trump administration, compared with 1878 drone strikes in the entirety (8 years) of Obamas tenure.

I'm not saying I support either of those, but comments like the one you made is inflammatory without being informative.
The quote I was paraphrasing was something like, "Bulls make money. Bears make money. Pigs (or maybe hogs?) get slaughtered."

And yes, you are correct on the other point. You would be able to avoid paying tax on your next $1M in lifetime capital gains. *disclaimer: This is not financial advice.
Actually if a cop finds evidence of a crime without a warrant when one is required,(or any illegal means) it won't be admissible, so I'm not sure where you are coming from.

Nor do I see how you are suggesting what I'm talking about is some sort of proposal for a double standard.

I'm not saying out legal framework is perfect, and certainly not saying that injustices don't happen because there are bad people, doing horrible shit to innocent people.

I'm saying that you can't abandon the rule of law, just because someone did something that you see as a net positive.

I'm also against this train of thought when the government attempts to use this logic with eminent domain cases for example.

Until rust came along you had three non CG options C, C++ and ADA. If you also have a no heap requirement you're left with just C and ADA.

There is plenty of other issues with matrix and the reference clients on top of something as simple as mandatory leaking of your presence in a chatroom. I've run a matrix homeserver for almost 3 weeks and it as an utter pain to maintain, despite not a single version upgrade and I was plagued with issues that no chat platform would have if the protocol was remotely sane.

edit: That is on top of the numerous security issues this hack uncovered. Apparently the matrix.org devs kept a users.txt file with a dump of users + passwords on the server. Signing keys for debian packages were stored unencrypted on the production server. People used unsafe SSH settings (SSH Agent Forwarding), ran outdated servers with known root-priv RCEs for months and root privileges for all users on a server. Why should I ever trust a matrix developer with their protocol or reference implementations ever again if they can't be trusted with the simple task of updating a service when a critical CVE comes out?
> I would definitely not want to talk openly about sex with random people.

I wouldn't discuss my sex life with random people either.

But my wife and I have some close friends who are obviously having serious issues because the woman involved always ends up crying about it when we've all had one too many to drink. Unfortunately she won't discuss it at all when sober, which is a real shame as they're such a fantastic couple otherwise and we do desperately want them to work it out.

At the very least there could be something very normal going on that we could reassure them about and help them get over any anxiety that might be caused as a result.

Unfortunately these things aren't really discussed between friends and so she has to suffer in silence or use alcohol to deal with her problems.

It's not that it will solve all struggles. It's that censorship doesn't solve them, either, but makes everything else worse.

And speaking of our own political landscape, last thing I want is a right wing populist government that has been handed laws to crack down on "hate speech" by my fellow progressive do-gooders. If such laws were to pass and found constitutional, I'd expect BLM and BDS to be the first targets in all red states (and Europe has ample precedent for persecuting BDS as "hate speech", so it's not like you'd have any moral high ground on calling them out on it).

Yeah, I'm not going to say that I consider sex to be disgusting or anything like that, but it's like taking a shit: I know everybody does it but I don't want to hear how, I don't want to imagine it or think of it, thank you very much.

If everybody kept their sexual lives to themselves there would be no talk about what fetishes are degenerate simply because nobody would know what your fetishes are.
The article is not only on point but it reflects a big problem in the tech companies.

I think it's too expensive to stay at the bleeding edge, but if you pick wisely you can get solid iterations and buy them as 'refurb' which means new and discounted.

I haven't been impressed with any apple product as of late, but eventually the price will be right. I'm riding out my 2012rMBP and 6s, prior to this I had an iPhone 4s. I think I may upgrade to an Xs in two years or so, when they start to get discounted.

I don't know what I'm going to do when my MacBook craps out, maybe I"ll get a linux laptop? Or an iPad?

The nice thing about being behind the curve is that the software tends to be more stable, I also wait a few months to install new versions of MacOS or iOS.

It depends entirely on what you need to guarantee. Using a hash tabel you guarantee with a very high probability that you only remove duplicated elements. If you need 100% guarantee, then you must do something else.
Or...it's just no conspiracy at all because neither Apple not Coinbase reinvented the wheel but put just another card into your wallet? It's not like this is something ground breaking to do if you handle cash in the US.
Reason why you would do that (and I often do) is that you have further piping options so it becomes standard work flow and muscle memory.

What I usually do is cat the file to inspect it, hit Control+C, then up arrow for previous command, then further pipe and head/tail/grep the file.

Starting a grep command is fine if you know that's all you're going to be doing.
but but but... what about the single responsibility principle??? Grep can't both load the file and pattern match against it's contents! Sacrilege.
It’s not like companies can’t come up with financial instruments to get around this.

I’d assume they don’t see a market, more than they don’t see a practical way to make it work.

Fair enough. An IDE will generally present you with matching strings on a project level and let you select which ones to change. But if you know where to look, replace within selection seems useful. Apparently IntelliJ supports that, but I've never thought to use it.
Probable cause is used to search the car. Police can't randomly search cars. However in order to target areas with minorities who are involved with drugs, they use police dogs that can supposedly sniff drugs. But the dogs really just read their handlers and bark when their handlers want them to. Police can stop anyone at any time for documents. /papers please

Recently in Canada a driver was charged for distracted driving for simply wearing headphones while driving. The judge decided that regardless of whether they were functional or not he was guilty.

Pretty much no other industry uses old hardware for rentals.

As well as being more reliable, the service users don't want to find a cassette player in the car, nor years of grime on every surface.
