More than likely the thieves are people who have worked in the industry so they know how a typical apiary operates and what common security measures are being used. Like any professional, professional criminals focus on crimes that fit their skill set to minimize legal risk and maximize profit. I'm not saying that people who are stealing bees are ignorant or inept. Obviously they're good at what they do or it wouldn't be a problem but we shouldn't assume they're good at all criminal activities. No matter what security measures you take there's always going to be ways to bypass it. Security measures are never a solution to threats but part of a process to minimize the threat. Something like GPS trackers can obviously be defeated but would help mitigate the threat of less skilled apiary thieves thriving on the low hanging fruit of unprotected apiaries. Getting caught using a GPS jammer carries a severe criminal punishment, far worse than just stealing bees. It's a high risk crime that requires technical expertise with major repercussions if you get caught. Criminals that have that level of technical expertise would probably concentrate on more profitable crimes than stealing bees. The goal is to increase the risk of the crime to help minimize the number of people who would attempt it, then concentrate on the few who's left. Security is an often vague process but this is how all security systems work.
I didnt try to contact them yet, I'm working on some upcoming cool features, also I will release the support of GCP this week. Once done, I will do more effort on the marketing part :)
IME that's enough. I spent my early working life in a job where I had to stand and walk all day and my back muscles retain that strength even to this day. I still stand at work, now out of choice, and have never had back pain.

Now I'm interested to see what their business model is. It seems like they have a lot of money to throw at services instead of developing it themselves, so I'm interested in their ROI or opportunity cost decisions now.
Goro Shimura has died
This is awesome! For some reason I got really nervous reading about your accident. I was sure they opened you up and did some damage!
I hope you keep going strong with the condition. I wonder how many people have lived full lives and never had it be detected.

Advertisers have exploited this particular bit of knowledge since the 30's of the previous century.
Is this an issue of contrast, and lack of sensitivity to it?

I must say the effect is strange, it does make the people look darker and more 'foreign' (from a Europeans perspective)

I wonder what effect photos like this had on perpetuating colonialism by making the natives appear less like themselves (the colonists).
I'm trying to be angry at Mozilla for messing up, but cant force myself to do it. They ended up to be that adorkable kid that spilled the paint all over the carpet and you just sigh and start cleaning up the mess.

I'm a cyclist. This study might explain the sheer number of drivers who tell me that they passed me dangerously because I gave them "no choice".

When stopped at stoplights, I've told some of these drivers that they always can choose to wait until a safe time to pass, but many drivers scoff at this as if it's not a realistic option. Perhaps 95% of the time when I'm riding a driver wouldn't have to wait more than 30 seconds. (Maybe longer for other cyclists since I try to minimize this.) The fact that I so frequently catch up with these drivers at stop lights should be a clue to them that I often do not slow them down (i.e., stoplights are the bottleneck), but in my experience mentioning that tends to make an already angry driver angrier.

So far I don't think I've made much progress convincing dangerous drivers to drive better by talking to them, but I now have a much better understanding of their concerns.
Sorry, but where is the difference from a secure-system that allows central control - and a male-ware backdoored system?

All that is diffrent is the promise of non-maliciousness. Which often does not hold up. Cause money is corrosive to those little centralized empires of "all-can-fail-but-me".

Security is diversity, as in having a non-centrally controllable ecosystem, that is not a mono-culture. Your updates are the danger, your urge for control is the forrest fire.

Linux is not secure because its updated often. As package maintainer take-overs have show- that is even a vector.
Its secure, because its fragmented into a thousand small populations, which offer no real financially interesting attack vector for a large scale take over.

Or maybe they take offence at your overall tone? You're clearly not interested in being constructive.

This kind of toxicity is exactly why many of us have "uninstalled" Reddit and the like.

Please refrain from bringing that toxicity to HN.
Functional Programming Is on the Rise
For those who don't recognise the name, Gorō Shimura was a Japanese mathematician. He is the "Shimura" in the Taniyama–Shimura conjecture, which was what ultimately led to Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.
AWS cost explorer gives you only the proportions of costs spent for each service you use, and it requires deep understanding of AWS to get the value our of cost explorer (like adding tags, buying reserved instances, etc ..). however this tool, can be used by everyone, its user friendly, it gives you an overview of all services you're using and shows in a map format the regions you're using, and it gives you recommendations and you can even deploy actions like deploying a lambda function to delete unused disks or snapshots (this feature will be added in upcoming days). Also, this tool supports multiple cloud providers, so with one tool you can analyze and detect potential cloud cost savings.
Java would be better off if even Microsoft owned it.
Holy cloud. Well I guess the silver lining is they're leaving lots of room for cost improvements...
A former roommate invited me.
Same domain. I've come to the conclusion that these systems are dualistic in nature and the architecture needs to reflect that. I think the more general expression of this would be a time-series -> document-store pipeline. The concern then, if the time-series processing step requires domain data, is serving up fresh views of the evolving state in toto. That epsilon of temporal lag of 'current state' in the premier stage is a product issue. For some use cases it can be a very tight constraint, but I think quite a lot of others will be perfectly fine with snapshot isolation with generous requirement on freshness.

I'm a little surprised as to how you guys afford to give such a quality service away for free. Really cool of you guys to share this data though. Wishing you guys continued success!
From your experience what does "trying to stay on top of the latest trends" entails? I assume it's not just reading the news/twitter correct? How does one get primary resources (as in talking to people in the know). And how do you get in contacts with these people? Even if you come in with a big network, why would they want to divulge sensitive information?
Not a very interesting article imo, but the topic of self teaching mathematics is a pretty interesting one. There's a few challenges with self teaching math. First, math is inherently about communication. If you cannot communicate your proof, you're not doing math–you're doing mysticism. For instance, the supposed proof of the ABC conjecture by Mochizuki is not verifiable because other mathematicians have not been able to read and vouch for it in its entirety. More mundanely, if you have a proof for the first Sylow theorem in your head with hand waves and loose intuition based arguments, that's extremely different from a proof with tight logic, well defined lemmas and carefully detailed phrasing. Basically if you're self teaching, you have to do problems and have their solutions verified by another mathematician with a degree of rigor.

Second, it's quite easy to convince yourself that you understand a topic. I don't know what it is about math, but there's so many people, myself included, who fall into the trap of thinking they understand a topic, when in fact they don't at all. For instance, there's a multitude of people who can recite verbatim the quadratic formula, or the power rule for differentiation. But ask them to explain why this is true, or give them variants on the power rule (what if we redefine derivatives to be based on multiplication? How does the power rule change?), and they won't be able to give you satisfactory answers. This goes back to my first point; the only way to truly understand math is to do problems and have them checked.
The tax position of benefits varies by country. Australia, for example, has the Fringe Benefits Tax, which is a tax on benefits levied on the employer at the highest marginal tax rate.

Unsurprisingly, Australian workplaces are miserly. At my last job before moving to the US, there was a hot water dispenser installed in the staff room. But we, the employees, had to buy for coffee, tea, sugar and milk ourselves. It was achieved on an honour system, with a little container where you would throw in some cash from time to time.
I find it funny that people still believe that any alien object reaching us (just remember the engineering work necessary to do that and how many hundreds of years if not more we are away from reaching distant planets or galaxies) could be observed in the visual range or even with any kind of technology we have. And if they do, then it is on purpose. What purpose is that? Doesn't earth look tasty to them? It's much more likely that these are some military prototypes or spy equipment, unmanned drones, etc. or just pure imagination.
Apple's JVM was MRJ, the Macintosh Runtime for Java. It became obsolete around 2004, during the transition to Mac OS X.
I don't know "how" they do it, but those kind of motions do remind me of how AI agents move in computer games when unconstrained by the rules of physics.
That is a bit misleading. Social security is distributed back to everyone. Although higher income earners pay more than what they get out.

Do you think they’re actual anomalies? Ie something actually there that isn’t explainable.
Without knowing it you have cherry picked possibly the only good parts of Java EE. The rest that constitute a 'full blown' Java EE stack are horrific disasters (JSF, EJB, etc).
That's the point - unanimous voting is open to abuse from tiny minorities.
The best way to reduce costs as a startup is to not use it in the first place.
I know its not popular to say, but both aws and GCS are too expensive for most startups. Better just use a local decent cloud provider. You can always move to GCS/aws when the time is right.
For operations, sterilizations are carried out with a mixture of means like chemical disinfectants, subjecting instruments to extreme heat (Autoclaving), etc. but they don't rely on antibiotics. Instruments can be put into environments toxic to both human and bacterial cells. The big difference of antibiotics is that they are toxic to bacteria but not to human cells so they can be put directly into the system. Some bacteria are also developing resistance against chemical disinfectants but here we have a much larger choice.
What's the business model here?

We would never run with such expensive options for this functionality, especially if it was a free/donations powered service. This company raised $7.5M though: https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/15/unsplash-simple-token-seri...
I don't get why people use 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 etc, for more then debugging. Why tell Google et.al about every site you visit !? And get slightly slower, less accurate and less resilient DNS lookups ...
Very few developers have access to the decision making process (or risk management imperatives)of executives of large organizations (and vice versa). When big numbers are involved the actual story and what gets told to the public are often entirely different things. This is why the “but we have OpenJDK” argument is practically a non-sequitur, yet seems a valid argument to many.

Oracle is, as you say, on the radar primarily because of databases. But it is really the risk of dealing with a company that is likely to screw you if they can do so with sufficient ROI (where the investment is audits and litigation)

Developers and CxOs/company boards risk very different things and when things go bad, have very different downsides.
They'd be dozens of us! Dozens! Haha.

Ah, I was very lucky in the accident. The driver was on his phone and distracted and hit me at 60 kmh. I was very, very lucky.

Oops. I meant nominal wages must go up, and nominal prices are not moving much.
If this worked, why wouldn't it have happened already. The answer is college means something.

Where can I read more about AdoptOpenJDK losing its TCK license? Is there any post? Any leak from their team?
Spring is really nice, but all the flexibility comes at a cost. Annotation meta-programming, runtime reflection, constructing proxies, classpath scanning... all contribute to a perception of slow JVM startup times that makes something like Spring Boot unsuitable for really small services or utilities.

I know there are other Java frameworks out there that are more optimized for smaller modular projects, but there's also the cost of operationalizing the JVM in something like Docker. Fat JAR deployments are relatively simple, but tuning the JVM isn't always straightforward. I'm definitely jealous of the simplicity of producing a single binary as your deployment artifact.
You know, this sounds like the kind of thing you get a tattoo for!
Yeah, for some reason people love this idea of a tortured "genius". I think that it makes the audience feel better. The idea that people can be smart and also relatively ok would make people jealous.

Just curious, what makes you think Google trustworthy (in relation to Go)? It is not surprising that corporates control and drive the languages and ecosystems in their own favor. IMO, Rust and D are truly open source, even though D lacks the corporate sponsor like any other major language.
I see you promoting your app/site constantly. I don't understand why this isn't against the rules on hn.
What does it mean to ‘learn math’? I feel like there’s a value to learning enough math that you understand the general concepts and vocabulary and having an intelligent conversation with a mathematician about, for example, how group theory might apply to some problem you’re working on, without having an actual working knowledge of group theory yourself.

I feel like it’s relatively easy to learn a lot _about_ math, as a self learner, without knowing a lot about how to _do_ math.

I’m mostly set taught, and I know the notation, I know the vocabulary, and I can follow along with a lot of math papers without too much of looking up terminology and I’ve adapted things I’ve read in math papers into working code, but I’m also well aware of my limitations —- I don’t know how to evaluate whether any of these papers are valid, I don’t have any sort of working knowledge of the tools of proofs to be able to do anything outside of fairly elementary calculus, etc. I know about higher math, but I wouldn’t say I know higher math. But even without that working knowledge, I wouldn’t say that what I know is valueless.
It's not meaningless, it's precisely how it was/is used in law, e.g. see https://english.stackexchange.com/a/14213, also see the Snopes answer: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/exceptional-proof/.

Two other idiomatic expressions that have similar confused usage are "proof is in the pudding" and "begs the question" (https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/246664/why-can-i...)

The difference is that if taxes didn't pay for education and health care, people would still have to foot those costs out of pocket. But fewer bombs and aircraft carriers is pure cost cutting.
Maybe plenty fast for most applications but a filesystem is not one of these IMHO, especially for something as naturally resource hungry as ZFS.

A good filesystem implementation requires tight memory management and good control of what happens at the OS level. I am not saying it can't be be done in python, but it clearly isn't the right tool for the job.

I meant that for a production implementation. Python is perfectly fine for a proof of concept, in fact, it may be better than jumping straight down to C. But keeping it for production is foolish IMHO.

This is pretty much exactly my thought as well.

Based on the timing of initial tweets and blog posts on this fiasco, I'm pretty sure I was in the first 10%, if not first 1%, of people who experienced this. And I was in a plane at 36,000 feet trying to work on a cross country (U.S.) flight when suddenly about 130 tabs in 7 windows disappeared. Really, REALLY bad. Panic, frustration, confusion...

I was more than 50% sure that all was not lost forever, that it was some "glitch" (Extensions all showed the same bloody red status), but I was tweaked. I work in security (embedded systems, not computers/IT) so I have a very good understanding of certificates, TLS, PKI, etc. There are many ways things can get out of whack if the people in charge screw up.

Regardless, this is embarrassing, dare I say shameful (pretty much almost up there with "Ooooppsss... we just lost our domain - it expired and no one thought to renew it)

Come on, guys, get it together. Have a procedure, document it, practice it, stay in front of it.

Sounds like you’re getting wayyy ahead of yourself and asking the wrong questions on multiple levels. (Yet another case of the naive technical cofounder.) A better question might be whether your cofounders consider you to be a founder if you are getting less than 10%.

Is this because minimum wage increases are finally kicking in in the blue states?

I read something recently like 70% of all jobs added were in California. And the vast majority of the rest was all in solid blue territory.

The real question is where is Texas on this? It's pretty much the only "red" state that ever posts job growth.
I use container tabs extensively.

Today, more than half of my open tabs disappeared in an instant, and were not even an option to re-open until either I waited around ("up to six hours...") or manually installed the workaround. All of my in-progress work in any of those tabs? Gone.

That absolutely qualifies as crippled usability. The mere fact of such a thing being possible is a usability defect. On what basis do I trust that my work is not going to disappear on me like that again?
It's defense in depth.

Yes, sterile technique is used to minimize the occurrence of surgical site infections. Sterile technique, when performed 100% correctly, isn't perfect and prophylactic antibiotics are standard to help mitigate any remaining risk.
> the next thing following DNS resolution is establishing a TCP connection which always leaks full IP address to the same person or organization controlling authoritative servers

Depends who runs the authoritative servers - if you hit the authoritative DNS services for most of my domains, you are providing your information to 123-Reg (or, increasingly, Google), if you start a TCP connection, you are providing it to me.
Firefox keeps session backups in the profile folder. You might be able to recover your open tabs with it. I've been in a similar situation with tab groups and managed to recover all of them, though I don't remember exactly how.

I'm having hard time understanding what are you referring to. All I'm saying is that I had a perfectly working system and now it is no more functioning properly. Why would anyone see this as more secure is beyond me.

Similarily, when "security best-practices" are leading to hundreds of my users losing SSO access to their BI system, or hundreds of printers rendered unusable because of security update that requires administrative permissions for reinstalling the same drivers that were perfectly working so far, I don't care for your security benefits. They suppose to defend against the thing that you are causing. You are already damaging the organization with thousands of working hours lost, and everyone is frustrated, as a bonus.
Well you win for the most epic paragraph on the internet for this month.
