Even if it isn't deliberate, even if gmail give a fuck, as can be seen from the first (and so far only) response from anyone at Google, they're so far in the Google "We're better than everyone else and always get it right because we're geniuses" RDF that it literally doesn't matter. They can't believe that they're the problem.
Based on their marketing, I always assumed E*Trade's user base was mostly gamblers, so crypocurrency seems like a natural match.
> And when we’re talking about blind spots and invisible social access controls, of course, what we’re really talking about is privilege. “Working in the open”, in a world where computation was scarce and expensive, meant working in front of an audience that was lucky enough to go to university or college, whose parents could afford a computer at home, who lived somewhere with broadband or had one of the few jobs whose company opened low-numbered ports to the outside world; what it didn’t mean was doxxing, cyberstalking, botnets, gamergaters, weaponized social media tooling, carrier-grade targeted-harassment-as-a-service and state-actor psy-op/disinformation campaigns rolling by like bad weather. The relentless, grinding day-to-day malfeasance that’s the background noise of this grudgefuck of a zeitgeist we’re all stewing in just didn’t inform that worldview, because it didn’t exist.

My fist job was with a company that had also hardware projects and we had a hard deadline to not miss the re-stock of supplies of big retailers. So since management decided to change one of the core features 6 month before the deadline we worked on weekends in exchange for money. I was young, felt very close to the team and also needed the money to pay off my student loan. After a summer without weekends to relax I was pretty burned out and I realized how the money wasn't worth it.

After working there a while I also realized how the company used the coolness factor of the products and the feeling of belonging to the team to get people into working a lot while paying less than the rest of the industry. I think this is also often done in the game industry

My question is: after your first crunch time, don't you think about priorities in life? Also, at least the programmers won't have a really hard time to find other jobs why do you stay in this rather abusive industry?
> I don’t think big g can turn it around, but I’m rooting for them.

I believe they can, but I don't know if they care to - they're highly profitable after all. What I really dislike about search is that, by treating links as currency, they have broken links. Lots of people won't put plain old links on their site because they fear it would hurt their rankings.

Their overreliance on links as the sole quality indicator has, at least in my country, lead to the large media companies just renting out folders or subdomains - and whatever low quality content is published there ranks at the top.

They still build good stuff, and I'm sure their engineers could "solve" search again, but it appears that their management doesn't want to.
I guess it also needs an e-ink screen, otherwise the screen would still draw a lot of the power.

people need to have a new car to work for Uber

Quite the opposite. There have been complaints in this thread about how the cars are getting shittier and shittier.

For Lyft for Oregon the car needs to be 2004 or newer for most of the smaller cities, 2009 or newer for Portland. https://www.lyft.com/driver-application-requirements/oregon

Uber is much the same. 15 years old in rural areas, 10 years old in Portland. https://www.uber.com/drive/eastern-oregon/vehicle-requiremen...
https://www.uber.com/drive/portland/vehicle-requirements/

Realistically, a 10 year old car is closer to "junkyard" than "new".
Just wondering, genuinely out of curiosity - how does one get to this 5% number? If the attacker had access to the DB s/he had access to 100% user data right?

Or did the get access to a partition of the user data? How is this even possible?

Some very old backup that had only 5% of earliest users?

Some log file which had plain-text creds of approx 5% users?

Or did they discover the attack as it was happening and kicked-out the attacker in the middle of a data download (only 5% complete)?
Actually it does a good job. When there is some data (like crowd sourced number reporting) on internet about the specific phone number you searched for, Google will show it in the top results

You get a full page of non-sense results and ads/spams when the phone number you searched for is not known from any website (I guess)
sounds like matrix.org
PG-13 is the worst rating imaginable now, because it contains some highly anticipated titles, overhyped to capture the tween audience begging mom and dad to take them to the movies, yet PG-13 movies are so watered down, and always balance for feel-good morality and happy endings, as to be predictable to the point of being an unwatchable waste of time.

R ratings by now are watered down by a different principle, profitability in international markets (angling toward simplistic dialog for lowest common denominator translations), combined with a pool over careerist lapdog actors and directors that lack the spine to stand up for a good story arc, which in turn is reflected by the spinelessness of risk averse producers and investors leery of defying focus group and test market expectations.

By now, most movies get completely mutilated by test screening analysis, in which careful attention is paid to not violate the norms and sensibilities of the most prudent an cautious viewer in the name of a lowly, irrelevant good story.
'As rms has kindly pointed out, the designation "GNU SETL" is incorrect until the sources have been released. I hope to correct this by making that release soon'

Undated. From the Documentation page.
From the Wikipedia link you posted:

"The doctrine is not, however, directly applicable to situations where the language at issue is mandated by law, as is often the case with insurance contracts and bills of lading."
jQuery is still the right tool for a lot of tasks, HN bouble hype notwithstanding.
Citation much needed, for this is contrary to anything I've learned (engineer, have worked with radio and radar systems for years, and the only case that I know that hasn't been debunked was from the crew of an electronic warfare ship.)

I'm not to good with low level stuff but this might go down to the famous wave/particle thing where one of the experiments that supported the particle explanation was that beneath a certain energy the radiation would not ionize a given material, however long they exposed it and however much radiation it was.

(Anyone who knows this better feel free to correct me, this is just what I remember from school when I'm maybe more than twice as old.)
The obvious advice is to go and talk to other python and Clojure developers in your area (find local meetups). Build something that you can show. Either your own projects or other open source projects.

Some Clojure specific advice.

Other than local meetups we have a vibrant online community. Join and participate in Slack Group @ clojurians.slack.com and in Discourse @ https://clojureverse.org/

If you like contributing to open source I highly recommend Cljdoc (https://github.com/cljdoc/cljdoc). We have a lot of beginners friendly issues. You will get a pretty good idea about the project from the readme and we can get you onboarded quickly if you drop by our slack channel #cljdoc. Here is a curated list of other open source project that you may find interesting. http://open-source.braveclojure.com/.

Godspeed!

> Dustin wants me to know that it was his decision to not hire me. “I have to feel really good about a person before I bring them on, and I don’t feel that way about you,” he says.

Whenever I took a decision to fire somebody, I always made a point of openly taking responsibility for it. I thought it was the right thing to do; I was sick of people who couldn't stomach making a decision, and that I could at least look the person I was letting go in the eye and try to explain, in the most honest and open way possible the reason for my decision. Same for declining to hire someone after an interview.

But reading this, it felt unnecessary cruel; now I wonder if it's sometimes best to just let these things work out themselves. May be not everyone is like me, and some people don't really need this conversation.

One thing for certain though: Dustin had no self-interest in having this conversation, after author have already been informed about the decision.
> Basically their engagement numbers were better for a larger amount of people by making search engines counterintuitive for early adopters.

Which also makes sense ... if you present the "right" result immediately, the user visits one site and has completed whatever he sought to do. if you make him click through 10 pages, he has way more chances to see an interesting ad.
So I used to call the local cab company a lot when taking work trips. Problems Uber solved for me:

- Knowing my location automatically via GPS. I don't always know where I am. I'm on a street near some bar.
- Knowing how long it'll take for my cab to get to me. I don't have to assume it's on its way and wait or call the operator to confirm ETA.
- Paying when I don't have cash. In NZ, not all taxi cabs take cards.

It's a major shift from a phone call. Not a fan of the company but it's certainly changed things with taxi companies now investing in their own apps and Uber alternatives sprouting up.
And did your early experience make you "foresee" the future negative developments? Reading back into those days, the biggest fear seems to be the loss of jobs and human isolation, nobody predicted privacy. Making highly speculative policy predictions and then basing decisions upon them runs the risk of attacking the wrong problems at the wrong time or retarding progress for the wrong reasons.

The quality of a decision is not determined by the resulting outcome.
It is determined by how well the decision changed the likelihood of outcomes to fit what the decision maker desired.

My personal opinion would be that both decisions were of roughly equal quality.
That is exactly my experience talking to C advocates since early 90's.

My outdoor Wifi CPE has maximum Tx Power of 23dBm which is about 200mW, which gives me signal strenght of -65dBm and my internet tower is approx 6Km far.

Hey HN,
I'm 18 years old self-learned developer. I started this project after realizing how much time reading news requires. Most of the time interesting title makes me read a story but at halfway through I understand how incorrect it was. Trimmed News ️ summarizes the news making it easier to understand either the full story or what it is about. The main mission is to reduce the time spent reading news. The app is brand new and a lot of new features are coming. By sending feedback and questions to me, you can change the future of this app

I wonder what would be the ideal Linux compile target for running on interpreter style emulators (as contrasted to binary translation style).

I guess the machine instructions should be as high level as possible, to reduce the interperter dispatch overhead. Of course then you'd need to port Linux and gcc to your hyper-CISC...
Most distributions' package repos aren't a free-for-all, unlike NPM

It'd be a legit criticism of ruby gems or CPAN, but linux distros are an entirely different kettle of fish, and most of the mainstream distros take security pretty seriously
There is no way to stop the hype. You can just enjoy watching the waves.
Damn, one thing I definitely don't envy about US is the lobbying. This definitely shouldn't have been left to a private company!

Indian govt websites aren't great and most look dated, and still income tax site run by govt is just about fine. No reason that the IRS/US gov should have locked themselves out of doing this.
If you're talking to a person 1m away from you, both of you can whisper. If you're 50m away, both of you need to shout.

It's similar to radio transmission.

The closer some base station antenna is, the lower the power your smartphone needs to reach the base station. Having many base stations reduces the effective field power.

Modern LTE and 5G also has something that is called beamforming. Instead of shouting in all directions, the base station restricts the radio signal to the direction of the smartphone. Other won't hear the noise.

It's not correct that "faster data" means there's more "EM things" around us. Basically we use the radio transmission more efficiently.

tldr: if you wanna avoid radiation, be close to a base station where powersaving kicks in.
Should they change your password for you? How do they communicate it securely then? Over unencrypted email, whose password may or may not be the same of your just-compromised docker account?
And Docker has a signing system but it's only enabled for the official-library builds! So all user images are completely unsigned despite all of the discussions of how secure the notary project might be.

And even if you hosted your own distribution and notary (like we now do for openSUSE and SUSE), you can't force Docker to check the signatures of all images from that server!

Only docker.io/library/* has enforced image signing and the only other option is to globally enforce image signing which means "docker build" will result in unusable images out-of-the-box.

If you look at something like OBS (the Open Build Service that openSUSE and SUSE use to provide packages as well as host user repos), the signing story is far better (and OBS was written a very long time ago). All packages are signed without exception, and each project gets it's own key that is managed and rotated by OBS. zypper will scream very loudly if you try to install a package that is unsigned or the key for a repo changes without the corresponding rollover setup. And keys are associated with projects so a valid rpm from a different project will also produce a warning and resolution prompt. That's how the Docker Hub should've been designed from the start.

(Disclaimer: I work for SUSE, on containers funnily enough.)

Dev with decades of experience here - I've worked with a variety of languages and platforms, and across different domains. I'm not sure I've ever had to implement a sorting algorithm, or even had sorting as an optimisation issue (and I love micro-optimisation, a bit too much TBH!). I've had to sort things, of course, but standard (or at least "common") libraries invariably have sorting functions built-in.
Hey Gniv,

I was supposed to link to this post (got kinda lazy and wanted to get this summary out) - will do so once it's ready!
Not at all. He's just identifying suspicious clusters of unsolved murders. He's not even identifying suspects. That's up to the police, mainly using standard methods.

So I really have no clue why he says:

> Hargrove is pleased about the investigation but he also worries that something may go awry. “What if they arrest the wrong guy, and he sues?” he asked.

Why would they sue him? I mean, his not-for-profit has ~no money. And I doubt that he's wealthy. It'd make more sense to sue the police.
> That's nice to know.

It's also not correct. I have to pay for all my vaccinations, and have had to do so in all the various states I've lived in, including California.

The US does not have a program of free vaccines for the population.

If people have insurance that pays for it, the insurance covers it, but that's not the same as free.

Elsewhere in this thread a med student relates his experience of getting his MMR booster for "free", but administering it was $500 per shot, later raised to $700. The free was also not free, the student insurance paid for the shot itself and he merely had to pay for the administration. This is a more typical vaccination scenario in the US. Also worth noting is that very very few of the people commenting in any discussion of vaccines are up to date with their boosters because very few adults in general are up to date.
My god, what a wonderful read.
I don't know for sure, but I would image it has something to do with wanting to make a unified solution with how to manage things, but I see a lot of great options, such as setting up a free GitLab pipeline to build and push your image. You don't even have to use Docker with kaniko, if you want a Kubernetes-native image builder and there are great registries that can be deployed in Kubernetes like Harbor, with automated security scanning. This can all be done in GitLab as well with paid features. I also recommend checking out building and deploying rootless containers for builds.
The Go compiler has `assert` and uses it for checking invariants, as mentioned in the article. I love Go, I'm down with the decisions the designers have made for the language but not exposing a proper and simplified assertion statement/expression while expecting the user to make their own doesn't sit well with me.

When early detection influences survival rates fairly consistently, it’s basically the same thing as curing. See also: vaccines.
It would increase stock price as this results in fewer stock owning larger part of the company. 10 stock for a billion valued company. It buys back 2 shares now the same company is owned by 8 share some of the value will come down as less cash reserves but if it is a company with growing revenue and profits the individual share price will go up.
Arguably, search is such a vital function of modern society that it could be considered a public good and seized on the principal of eminent domain.
You don't need to ask a bunch of questions and use waffle phrases, this is not a complicated space. Cryptocurrencies are a silly scam and people who love new scams gravitate towards it, most other people don't care.

That is actually an analogy i am pretty happy with. We can argue about the actual severity, but in principle it feels consistent. (Conveniently working in kitchens has given me a lot of experience of regular small burns xD)
It would be helpful if docker would tell us the work factor, algorithm and saltedness of the hashes, so we could know whether they were following best practices. Most people don't.
This happened to me with an e-commerce site I run last year. About 10 exact clones of our site popped up with slightly different names. We had so many calls from people who were tricked and had no real solution. They were targeting via Facebook ads mostly as we asked how they found the site. Contacted Facebook but they would not do anything. Some of the sites still exist. Reported them to google as well, but didn’t help.

To those downvoting.

When significant flaws were discovered in OpenSSL, it turned out there were only a handful people in the world who could potentially do a full analysis of the code base. And the resulting audit ended up costing millions, took several years and resulted in the re-implementation/forking of the code base.

I know that OpenSSL isn’t a part of Android, but it shows the difficulty of auditing a large complex project.

Believing that anyone can checkout Android code and easily discover if Google (or anyone) has done something nefarious is a delusion of the highest order. The code base would need to be continuously audited by a team of experts in various domains.
I heard research is making progress in bringing THz fusion radiation shields based on organic materials to the market.
You can pull an image using the sha:

The issue described in the OP is email not even making it to the spam folder. If it at least makes it to ProtonMail's spam folder, that's an improvement.
Yes, in particular we need to know algorithm, work factor and salting details to know whether or not the passwords may be compromised.
If there is enough demand. So if people stop buying cars and rely on Uber then maybe.
Well, at least Apple is not bashing competitor's innovation this time around, as they did with phablets ("nobody would buy something that big"), spen ("over my dead body"), or AMOLE ("awful), that's a progress for Apple.

We probably won't see any foldables from Apple for a long while, but, when they do release one with few cosmetic changes here and there, you are right that their loyal customers would all rise and praise it as a first breakthrough innovation.
Great idea! The app is working well on most of the news. Definitely something I will use. Hopefully there will be a web version soon.
Are we sure that early detection really improves survival times or does it just look like this in the statistics because we detect the cancers in an earlier stage?
You can tamper with data protected by checksums: they are not designed to be irreversible, just fast to calculate and good at detecting errors, not deliberate manipulations.

Use proper cryptography and don't roll your own!

Comparing 5G to the dangers of sunlight, which is major public health issue, actually makes me somewhat hesitant to reject those fears, where before I would have filed it in the same category as chemtrails.
Oliver Sachs being mentioned always strikes my attention since having a read a couple of books by him. I was not aware though of his troubled past. Makes him more relatable in some way. Also brings this article into perspective. For all the positives that come with lifting weights (of what ever kind) it is obvious that most of the time it is born out of a desire to compensate a perceived shortcoming.
