That’s totally fair (and there indeed was a time when the typical response to my resume was, "we are not looking for juniors") :-)

But this argument makes sense only from the collective standpoint (as in, the industry in general). Of course developers have to be trained by someone, because otherwise there will be no dissemination of knowledge, no passing down of experience, and no qualified workforce. So of course that should be done.

The question is, whether you (as a programmer on a team looking for new members, or as a company looking for new employers) need to be doing this, or whether it's all right to let someone else do this while you look for already well-trained and experienced professionals.
Amazon the company should logically have Amazon.com, since that's literally what that stands for.
I doubt there will every be a way to delete content as every legitimate method of deleting will be commandeered for censorship. Even if they did add something you can never really know the other nodes actually deleted it.
USGOV and all but the largest businesses don't mesh. The solution to the spying threat is extending tort liability and statutory damages to negligence when there are compromises. Not different than product safety, liability will make quick work of the problem.

> You want, at the very least, wrapper libraries to hide some of the nastier Java design patterns, so every time you add a Java dependency you will either have to find out its API and wrap the parts you need in some Scala code

Kind of describes why I have never succeeded in going beyond Groovy (despite trying). Despite all the claims, all the JVM language's claims of interop never pan out nicely in reality. Scala in particular is terrible because it replaces all the collections with its own and then you need layers of conversions between them which introduce overheads and idiosyncracies. On the other hand Groovy explicitly tries to have as little impedance mismatch with Java. It "automatically" enhances Java APIs with useful / functional methods so every Java API magically gets better without you doing anythign. With groovy you can really have what most people wanted, which is a "nicer Java", rather than a completely different language.
We looked briefly at the snowball and fireball, but wanted to do this as quickly as possible, whilst keeping the process entirely transparent to our users. It was also an excuse for our team to get intimately familiar with the B2 API, since it's not compatible with S3.

If we were to consider another large migration like this, physical media would probably be the way to go.

The headline is somewhat tautologically true in the technical sense that, with Ecuador, the UK, and the US each having an effective veto over legal action against him, and all three being democratic countries with the rule of law largely intact, whatever will come of this will tend to be the just consequences of his actions that got too close and/or crossed the line of legality.

Ever since Assange first got into trouble over violating a well-meaning hosts‘ house rules of hygiene (a perennial problem of his, apparently) there have been accusations and conspiracy theories conflating the criminal and political aspects. One should try to avoid this.
We have about 125TB on Wasabi. Costs about 650/mo. Their performance for large files is great.
Sure but sometimes this lack of knowledge will cripple a company. I've had a VP(who had a role similar to the cto for the department) who picked what time series database we should use based on this technology being the best one from a business standpoint. Unfortunately the technology was so bad from a technical standpoint that every single project that used it had it's budget and timeline explode 4-6x. This seems like an exaggeration but it isn't. One literally wrote a working application in 6 months then was mandated to move to the new technology (basically rewriting the application) and they spent 2 years rewriting while still leverage a lot of the code they already wrote.

And I feel like 100s of these decision are made everyday by executives who oversee but don't grok software.
> Imagine ignoring calls or emails from your boss for a day or two when it’s clear that boss expects responses in a specific time?

Then slack makes no difference then, you might as well blame emails or the phone company.

They should cc you so you get a notification. Or talk to you on person.

They shouldn't assume everyone will read every message. If it's important, they should make sure you definitely saw it.

If you ever feel like you missed and important decision, go and politely tell them to always get you involved.

Roeper: Odd moments a major asset in Lionsgate's cybercurrency thriller “Crypto”
For some sysadmin type things, one can use tramp to edit files/open shells on remote machines. One trick is that sshx often works better than ssh. On the other hand it doesn’t work completely flawlessly and can be slightly painful, more so in the transition between using separate terminals and ssh and vi, and using emacs with other things in separate buffers.
Mind sharing your config? :)
Perhaps. My anecdotal experience does not show a high ratio of women on facebook who are also friends with their mothers. I have also noticed older seem to list their maiden name less frequently.

However, I do agree that in general several "security questions" that are meant to be hard-to-guess data points are actually easy to find the answer to frequently. Maiden names, and school names/cities/mascots, are often found in online profiles in one way or another.

At the same time, I'm not sure the risk is as large as it seems. These security questions help prevent bulk identity theft and add a friction point to the process, they are certainly not equal alternatives to real 2FA, but they are also less "brute forceable".
Huh. That does suggest that my initial assumption about Emacs adapting to its environment was incorrect.

I do know that Emacs did adapt a lot when coming to Unix/X11 from its initial roots on other systems, but maybe it has ossified since then.

Not being a US citizen doesn't seem relevant for being prosecuted under US laws in a US jurisdiction?

I learned Emacs[0] on a Symbolics "space cadet" keyboard which has all the modifier keys in the lower left corner. Maybe that's why I've never felt any need to move the control key from its lower left location on my Mac keyboard.

[0] Technically Zmacs, but most of the key bindings were the same.
There are some interesting articles here: http://emulators.com/nx_toc.htm, where Darek Mihocka advocates a similar approach; however pushing for emulation rather than JIT.
