It might not be as bad as you think. First, you've gotten the following you have based on reputation and your following so far. Second, most IT applications are written about more than they are talked about. I think consumer apps need a pronounceable name because people talking about them provides marketing value. But the discovery of most IT apps comes from written communication - blog posts, Google searches, etc.

Finally, if you're really concerned about it, maybe incorporate a pronunciation guide (phonetic symbols) into your branding somehow.

1. I haven't picked an industry. I've been working with a startup in adtech and the other a significant player in the digital content provider space. Do you most clients expect extensive experience in their domains?

2. As for service, my technical focus is on all things backend, but also advise my clients on best practices at all phases of development. I want to eventually build a team to cover the full stack and QA.

3. Very good points and advice.

4. I currently work on these contracts. One of which should carry me through the year, but I don't have the cash to float myself for any longer than 3 months. I expected to work near full time while I work on sales. Also I don't know much about sales. Any content I should be reading?

5. Thanks I'll take a look.

Going to irccloud.com, creating an account, and connecting is "implementing it yourself" how again? And IRCCloud has all that in a single solution.

Even if you want to self-host, there are solutions — get any server, run

docker run \
-v /path/to/folder/where/you/want/to/store/the/config:/config \
k8r.eu/justjanne/quassel-docker:v0.13.1

and connect with quassel or quasseldroid to that server (the setup wizard guides you through everything else). It's about as simple as it can get for selfhosted. (Quassel gets you message retention and search immediately, and the other features are already being worked on).

From your original comment:

> they could teach how to install uBlock Origin, instead of how to help corporate when their spying fails.

That's quite a bit different from "mentioning the existence of", which would be reasonable IMO.

In any case, the elephant in the room that's gone unmentioned so far, is that the BBC introduced Google Ads on the site a few years ago, so it's probably not a priority for them to explain to users how they can block ads.
> older browsers or without JS

For sites that just convey text, they should work without JS. This would mostly solve accessibility (a11y) issues if sites looked to use simplicity wherever possible instead of adding complexity to solve issues caused by complexity.
I always thought that the car age requirement was dumb. I drove a 2007 Subaru and it still worked perfectly. Another person I knew drove a 1997 BMW that's better than most Ubers I take.
You just proved the previous commenter's point about how overly complicated it is.
This is actually a difficult problem, because there are two kinds of slackers: (1) the kind that work less but produce roughly the same as, or sometimes even more than, everyone else (i.e., smart but lazy), and (2) the kind that don't work or produce.

Dealing with (2) is absolutely the manager's job and such a person should be fired if attempts to identify and fix an underlying problem fail.

But (1) is really difficult. We have one of those right now, let's call him Bill. Our manager is hesitant to do anything about him, because the manager wants to incentivize productivity, not butt-in-chair time (we're all salaried, with no set hours). But Bill comes in 4 hours a day, seemingly works 1 of them, and spends the other 3 trying to distract everyone else with off-topic conversations. If he comes in at all.

Amazingly Bill does get work done, somehow. But it is terrible for morale. Worse, some of the junior members are starting to think they can get away with the same thing Bill is doing, and they can't. As the senior dev, the "big brother" to our manager's "dad", it falls to me to do something about it, but I have no idea what, if anything.

Manager fears that if he rewards finishing tasks quickly with more work, it will also harm morale and productivity. And there is a decent argument to be made for that. Having experienced that firsthand, it is highly irritating and incentivizes people to work slowly.

Additionally, in reply to GP, a manager that has great technical skills (10) and good managerial skills (1-9) must be as rare as a unicorn. Even a manager who started with good technical chops inevitably will lose them over time when they are an Outlook jockey all day. OTOH, I have seen plenty of otherwise decent managers who think their technical chops are good when they aren't. Pretty much the whole premise of Dilbert. The best realistic alternative seems to be managers who know their technical limits, delegate, and seek advice from their subordinates.
9600k, 9700k, and 9900k are all single threaded king, effectively, at least until Zen 2 launches on 7/7.

9600k has a 3.7ghz stock base clock, 9700k and 9900k have identical base clocks of 3.6; in order, their stock single core turbos are 4.6, 4.9, and 5.0.

Now, you could be asking yourself "but Diablo, in single threaded, the 9900k is 8.6% faster, and the 9700k is 6.5% faster than the 9600k, respectively". They're all k parts, just overclock it the tiny bit of the way for a fraction of the price ($230 vs $410 vs $490), and the 9600k has far more thermal and power budget per-core to play with than the other two do.

I almost built a new desktop with a 9600k, the $230 6/6 part that shames (in both single and multithreaded) the highest end $340 or $350 4/8 parts from the previous four generations (4770k, 4790k, 6700k, 7700k); vs the $360 8700k (6/12), it performs identically in single threaded, and illustrates that hyperthreading only gains you about 25% extra performance if you can saturate all 12 threads.

Remember, these are desktop chips, you are very unlikely to ever need more than 8 threads (and use them effectively), even if you game. If you happen to have a use case where you can easily saturate >8 threads, anything LGA115x is probably inappropriate for you anyways.

However, with the 9000 series release, Intel admitted AMD scared the fuck out of them, and re-released Coffee Lake at a lower price with some tweaks in speed and core/thread count because they were afraid of Zen 2 being a success; their fears were warranted.

The $250 3600x (a 6/12 part) beats the 9600k in single threaded, widely beats it in multithreaded, and has PCI-E 4.0, with an extra 4 CPU-bound PCI-E lanes (20 vs 16 on AM4 vs LGA115x), and uses a higher DDR4 clock (stock 3200 vs 2666, with an effective maximum of possibly over 5000 vs around 4133; AMD's IMC seems to continue to be effective at lower CAS latency than Intel's is).

Side note: 4790k, a Devil's Canyon part, is Intel's stand-in for the non-existent 5700k.

Devil's Canyon is a Haswell Refresh part that got a second set of 4000 series model numbers instead of 5000 series. Haswell Refresh was a Broadwell core paired with a DDR3 controller, fabbed at Haswell's node size; there are no architectural changes between Broadwell and Haswell in the core, only major changes was the decrease in node size and the swap to DDR4, the core design remained nearly identical. Broadwell largely ignored the desktop, focusing on LGA2011 and mobile parts instead, leaving Haswell Refresh to fill in the gap with the desktop and Xeon E3s, and the only notable exceptions being a small set of Iris Pro GPU parts.
That's what recovery codes are for.

If you're ok storing the TOTP key, you could just store a recovery code instead. Recovering an account is generally audited, so this is more secure that just provisioning another device.

My point is just that it's still a lot of effort to recover, and we're basically encouraging people to undo the benefit of MFA by storing the TOTP key/recovery code right next to the password they used to get through the first factor...
If the spelling of the product name is uncommon, that might be a plus on search engines.
When you write something to the NAS, it'll land in memory before it's written out to the RAID. If you get an undetected bitflip in that memory before it's written out, it'll happily replicate that error across your RAID.

Worse could happen if a RAM error corrupted the in-memory copy of filesystem metadata (like an extent map) - subsequent writes that rely on that metadata could then cause gnarly corruption.
No I wouldn’t because that would be dumb
No Fees: Suica does not charge users merchant fees. Contrast that with a credit card, which charge fees as a % of transactions. Some credit cards with contactless functionality (eg. PayWave) charge a higher % if you use the contactless method rather than inserting or swiping. If you like money, well, you get more of it by using Suica. You do have to pay a 500 JPY deposit (refundable) when you first obtain the card. You can get this back at any JR station whenever you want. Also if you're using a foreign card, you might be charged foreign exchange fees and also get a bad exchange rate (ie. the rate is almost always some % worse in favor of the bank). If you can find a more efficient way of getting JPY onto a Suica, then you can save money.

Privacy: If you care about privacy, Suica is relatively anonymous, unless you (optionally) register it. It's probably possible to link a card to someone retrospectively with CCTV, but your transaction history is not being broadcast in real-time to your bank.

Acceptance: It's also increasingly widely accepted: public transport (the Tokyo metro system is amazing and gets you just about anywhere efficiently); taxis; the pervasive convenience stores + some supermarkets; more and more retail stores. Edit: as another poster pointed out, a huge % of transactions in Japan are made in cash and it's quite common for stores to not accept credit cards, yet some of these do accept Suica.

Discounts: You might get discounts on train fares if you use Suica, too.

No battery required: The SUICA works 24/7, 365, with no need to charge it. Unless I'm mistaken, smartphones require at least reserve battery for NFC payments to work.
Also the Scots who presumably inherited these myths from Ireland via Dalriada:

"...we find that among other famous nations our own, the Scots, has been graced with widespread renown.

They journeyed from Greater Scythia by way of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Pillars of Hercules, and dwelt for a long course of time in Spain among the most savage tribes, but nowhere could they be subdued by any race, however barbarous.

Thence they came, twelve hundred years after the people of Israel crossed the Red Sea, to their home in the west where they still live today."

I am not aware of any such study - not that that means anything. If one assumes, as seems reasonable to me, that a person's theory of mind is based on at least a tacit assumption that other people function somewhat like oneself, then one might make the working assumption that experiments on a person's theory of mind [1] also reveal something about how they tacitly perceive themselves. If you want to know something about their explicit thoughts about their mental capabilities, one could start by asking them.

If you look closely at what AMD says it might make you question it. They specifically say they don't disabled it on their desktop chips but they don't test it. Basically a YMMV statement.

Awesome! Always looked for this list.
As a person managing projects and also contributing as an IC, having a manager stand between me and my team’s PM was absolutely counterproductive. I know where they were coming from - it would have been great had I not been managing individual projects and needing feedback from the PM in a cyclic way on my technical designs before they were split into work items for my team. It’s incredibly hard to do something requiring good communication if you’re playing telephone.

I don't think it's quite true of TCP/IP that you wouldn't work at all, although you do have to be careful, because there are a lot of RFCs, and it's not always clear which ones are important.

Also, one of the RFCs has wrong functions for calculating or adjusting checksums. I think there's also some convention on tcp option ordering that may be important but not well documented.

Either way, I would keep a couple other implementations close -- if not to peek at their code ocassionaly, at least to inspect their output.

In other words, auditing one line of code within an unsafe{}-block in Rust, has about the same time-cost as auditing one line of a macro in a language that has them. You have to look at all the code that could be affected by the code, not just the code itself, because, like a macro, unsafe code “infects” other code with its semantics. (In macro code, that’s “the call sites”; in Rust’s unsafe code, that’s mostly code running concurrently to the executing code, given that you’re supposed to reintroduce a valid “safe” state before the end of the unsafe{} block.)

Though, keep in mind, this isn’t something especially costly about Rust. To properly analyze any low-level language without unsafe{} requires treating every LoC to this extended audit.

> Why are we developing systems that use TOTP if we are encouraging users to treat them like passwords, undoing the vast majority of the security benefit?

Better advice would be "treat them like passwords, but keep them encrypted separately from your password manager."

You shouldn't need to restore your TOTP secrets to your phone more than once every couple years, so there isn't any reason for you to have access to them 20 times a day.

I use Suikakeibo [0] for that. The latest 20-ish transactions seem to be stored on the card, so by scanning it using my phone every day I could keep a history of everything I used it for. You can even put in notes, since non-transit transaction don't list what you bought with it - just the amount.

It makes for a nice reminder of my past trips. =)

>Price per kilometer & wait time seems higher in Zurich, for example

I think Zurich is just a particularly expensive example. At least in the US, most places seem a lot cheaper (I checked New York, Chicago, and San Francisco). Of the few cities I checked in Europe, London is comparable but Paris, Berlin, and Rome are closer to the US examples.

Good article. This articulates a number of issues that I wasn't able to put into words, particularly around this idea that the DOM can be a really inconvenient way to track state.

I still kind of feel like I need to sit down and figure out exactly what my issue is with the current spec, but roughly speaking I guess I'd say that the DOM should be a standardized display layer, not a way to store internal application state. Or put it another way, the DOM is for your users, not for your application. I don't think that fully captures the problem, but it's a bit closer.

Regardless, I often flail when people ask me why I'm a little skeptical about the way web components are currently designed, so at least now I have something to point them towards.
I think custom dishware is key, and will certainly catch on. One of the major problems with household robots is working in an environment designed for humans.

On paper it sounds like a good idea. Limit brain drain, keep the high achievers in India.

But in practice, it's not that simple. US businesses do well largely because our market is not nearly as corrupted by politics the way things are in India. Chinese companies do well because the communist party cracks down on corruption with brutal force. But in India? Corruption is how work is done. There are real stability issues at play and they manifest themselves even in the elite companies and institutions. This is the same country that almost sank its own nuclear submarine because someone left a hatch open...

So yeah, it sounds nice to keep Indian workers in India, but without a political landscape that is stable enough to support something like an Indian Silicon Valley and earn the trust of investors, there's no guarantee they will offset the loss of US remittances on the current H1B workers.
Yeah, that's totally fair! People shouldn't be forced to leave their houses because of rising taxes...
