Uh, just last year Google increased the price of developers using the maps API by an order of magnitude with no grandfathering policy, which for many users was effectively shutting the API off completely.

It's not just the consumer side; Google doesn't exactly have a spotless reputation for developers, and assuming the post must be somebody faking being concerned for "Internet Cool Guy points" is just tone deaf.

We're not sugar free, but sweets are for occasional eating, not for week days. We watch a Disney show every Friday, and my children get to make a small bag of candy (100g) for that. They rarely eat it all. Beyond that we simply load them with greens, and make sure there is always some green that they like and some they have to taste. Hungry when they get home from school? Grab a carrot. Hunger 1 hour before dinner? Take an apple. Need an late lunch snack? Eat some nuts. The battle is won if parents give their children healthy eating habits in their daily life.

Thank you for the tip! I'll try and do something along those lines.

The problem is time, unfortunately - especially when developing products, the timelines are quite restricting: tickets are estimated by the team, large deviations usually need to be explained. So if there's something I can do in a sensible amount of time, I'd go for it. Plus all the overhead of helping others, reviewing/merging PRs etc.etc.

One of my main approaches to try and prove myself was to help out with identifying/fixing company-wide issues in some of our platforms. Got me some good contacts (and a very senior engineer offering to mentor me for a bit) and I certainly learned a lot doing it.

Can someone explain to me how you can understand the culture in a team of programmers that leads to this being acceptable? Just a few small guidelines could help alleviate things like this, right? Modularization and a tiny sprinkle of code review and this is solved.

I once worked for a defence contractor (although I did not directly work on any defence contracts). I didn't have a security clearance, but they wanted me to do a code review of some software (which seemed to be some kind of communications protocol). After reviewing it for some time with a colleague we wrote our findings as "We don't understand what this code was supposed to do, but we highly doubt that it works correctly" along with comments of serious problems on almost every line. My colleague was Chinese and could only work on his visa with that specific company. The manager threatened to fire him unless he retracted the review. After that, they shipped the code. Apparently it didn't work at all and they all got fired. I got a raise (but quit about 3 months afterwards as it was a horrible, horrible place to work).

I can well imagine what it's like to work on the code described in that document ;-)

It's not just senior citizens, it includes: people on a qualifying fixed income, food stamp recipients, Social Security payment recipients, disability payment recipients, Holocaust survivors, single-parent households, households with members who have died or have permanent disability due to terrorism or state service, non-Jews with Righteous Among the Nations status, the legally blind, people who were prisoners of war, people who were "Prisoners of Zion" / ex-Soviet refuseniks, new immigrants in their first year of residency, parents of disabled children, people in active service in the military or alternative civilian service. If you fit one of the categories then it's generally a pain to assemble the necessary documentation to get the discounts, but once you do, you don't really need to renew the status (excepting soldiers/servicepeople).

General / flat tax schemes for situations like this tend to be regressive.

> Landlords cannot sit back and rent-seek. If developers around them are making the area nicer, they will soon be priced out unless they follow suit.

So, separately from the ghost town situation in Jerusalem, there's a phenomenon in Tel Aviv where there is undeveloped beachfront property worth literally hundreds of millions of dollars with some one-story house sitting on the land and falling apart. If you delve into the reasons why it hasn't been sold to a developer, you find out that the original purchasers have several generations of inheritors, with ownership divided among thousands of people. Because those thousands of people can't unanimously agree on who to sell their shares to and at what price, the land sits undeveloped, and the situation gets worse over time as the current owners have children of their own and the current owners' miniscule shares get divided even further. Many of these properties are locked up in court battles with family members trying to sue to force the sale of shares by some third or fourth cousin they barely know.

When people are literally looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars for their ownership stake, and they still can't sell, how is the financial incentive established by the LVT any different in terms of being able to bring about a result in getting the land developed?

Your workflow is one way to build and link, but not the only way. I might want to build several of those TUs into a static library, link against it, and ship it alongside a few executables.

And when it comes to creating a library, it's difficult to infer which TUs should be pulled in or left out since you'd need to see at least representative samples of the use of that library to be able to infer that.

understand the culture in a team of programmers

In large companies there is never 'a' team of programmers, there are N teams of programmers with varying amounts of communications and cooperation going on between them, where "varying" often includes being completely unaware of the other teams existence.

N different teams working independently of each other each implement a variation of feature X to solve their own problem. The someone decides it's time to merge the whole thing together and it's easier to just use the N different implementations of X rather than to try to refactor and debug a single implementation of X that works for all N cases.

I really liked going through https://github.com/janestreet/learn-ocaml-workshop (currently working on the frogger :)

Ocaml is a nice and reasonably simple language, especially if you dabbled with statically typed functional languages. The type-system is not as strong as Haskells, i.e. there are no type-classes, but there is meta-programming support, that
provides some of the quality-of-life enhancements stronger type system might (i.e. you often use macros for comparisons, or deriving boilerplate functions)

I would probably stick with JaneStreet ecosystem, the language on its own doesn't have standard library.

There is a support for calling C functions, but haven't tried yet, and documentation seems sketchy.

What I've noticed is that in general that as long as there some activity (even if it's bad) it is considered success. I'm currently knee-deep in a code base where the exact same function was nearly copied several dozen times and trying to fix it gets shot down as a "waste of time". I say nearly because in some places the same exact variable is misspelled many different ways.

Eh, most people can do without 100% of the internet, but they don't want to. And why should they? It's easy to opt out of ads - just don't use sites that have them. But if person A wants to watch some ads in exchange of "just" entertainment (which is downplaying the importance of entertainment, but whatever), why should that bother me?

Assuming of course that person A is fully aware of what they are giving said ad company, which currently is often not the case.

What they call 'bias', Facebook and any other companies will call good targeting.

If one group reacts to an ad, and another doesn't, you usually want to show the ad to the group which responds to maximize your ROI.

I'm surprised that they're shouting about it now, this is how the ad business works since the beginning of the Internet' ad business. It's like the society lives unconscious how the big make money.

You're quibbling over details: The point is that bitcoin is deliberately designed to waste as much energy as possible. It's a constant arms race where you have to keep escalating your hash rate, or you risk somebody else being able to execute a 51% attack.

It's an absolutely atrocious example of the Red Queen effect ("running just to stand still") and I can't believe that technologists who in other contexts value elegance and efficiency can defend bitcoin with a straight face. I can only assume they have a lot of money tied up in bitcoin, because otherwise it makes no sense.

Instrumentation on an aircraft is usually designed with a pilot and copilot set. Everything down to the pitot tubes which feed the information is unique to that side of the aircraft.

Clearly these signals can be cross connected, because that's the solution Boeing are testing at the moment, but it's outside the normal design of aircraft systems.

This will be the same in a great many places, including western companies. It is market forces in action, the race to the bottom, and a consequence of going for the option that "looks the part and it cheap" for too long which makes the supply-side players support being fast to market with the right buzzword features cheaper than the other lot and the bare minimum of care for other considerations.

The people making the buying decisions are at least vaguely aware of the problem, but work under the hope that they'll be long gone (or the kit will have been replaced by something else) before any excrement gets uncomfortably close to the air conditioning system.

At some point things come to a head and people look more deeply into the problem, hence:

> HCSEC threw a wobbly and told Huawei to sort itself out pronto

What has brought things to a head this time is the question "are we sure that can we trust Chinese companies?" combined with the question come out of the various public surveillance/recording news stories "can we trust any companies?!". People are being told to dig by the powers that be because said powers don't want to be the ones to make a cock-up while there is some public scrutiny going on.

> the Chinese company still came back with software containing "code that is vulnerable to 10 publicly disclosed OpenSSL vulnerabilities some dating back to 2006

That though is particularly damning. Having been pointed to the problem and told to sort it out, they seem to have done less than the bare minimum and hoped to get away with it. Just think how lazy they were being when not actively being told to be more careful, and how lazy they might go back to being if this all blows over before significant internal change is made.
To be entirely clear, I said "be given". I said nothing about them arranging a platform for themselves.
How would a tool know from a header dependency, in which source file the implementation for the header lives? C or C++ don't require any relationship between a declaration file and implementation file. The implementation could be in an entirely differently named source file, or spread over various files, mixed with implementation code from other headers, or included right in the header.
There is zero waste. You don’t understand bitcoin. Bitcoin is not about transaction efficiency or throughput, use MySQL for that. Bitcoin is about secure ownership of money, peer to peer exchange and immutable fiscal policy.

What you call waste is simply price for some level of security that isn’t backed by any armies.

Edit: also, no, miners aren't middlemen, that's just another misunderstanding on your part. middleman has control over the process they facilitate, miners have no control over anything but construction of blocks and how much energy they are willing to spend. you could argue miners can choose to ignore transactions coming from me (if they manage to figure out how to identify them), but it's a competition of independent parties so there will always be other miners that do not choose to ignore me. for that to be an issue big enough to call miners middlemen you'd need majority of miners to collude on something quite obvious and demonstrable, which would undermine bitcoin project itself, rendering miners' own investments in bitcoin and infrastructure worthless - not in their interest. besides, with confidential transactions this entire point will be moot.

The vendor utils assumed limits on data they processed (max file size, max line lenght, etc). If you ran over them, you wouldn't either get the correct results, or it died, or something else happened. That's the reason behind the section of 4.2 Writing robust programs.

One of the other things is a rapid slownown and allocating too much memory. For example, when using Sun's grep and hitting a binary file, now you could wait hours for the result. It didn't help, that some Sun applications did put binary files into /etc, so in the end, you couldn't grep /etc. Well, not until you installed the GNU version, which didn't have that problem.
