Flip it around: it's really hard to budget, plan for staffing, make commitments, etc. without the ability to give estimates of this sort. The best thing to give yourself when giving estimates of a dificult sort is the freedom to be wrong, and the ability to express how confident you are in such an estimate.

The difference being that there are absolutely no better options. Everyone agrees the login form model is insufficient and that's why anyone who takes personal security seriously now introduces a lot of infrastructure around their logins.

But aside, it seems like not all networks support TLS logins?

As it stands, I have no IRC equivalent of a 2FA key. I present a plaintext token and hope that it's all handled properly and that I'm not a victim of a password reuse attack.

Any web based solution is light years ahead on this.
Employee retention, continuity, and fewer disruptions. I'm not management but I am on the interview team, and I can tell you that hiring senior and architect level positions isn't easy in this job market. Loose one of those folks and an entire scrum team is crippled for maybe 3 to 9 months. Say 10 people for 6 months at 2/3 productivity, and you're looking at 20 developer months wasted, and user facing projects delayed or tabled. Even if you happen to find someone quick, you're loosing years worth of company specific history/experience.

As a remote engineer at a good but little known medium sized company, I could get an offer from a FAANG company(no interview, automatic hire, big raise) and realistically I'd probably tell them no. They don't have offices where I want to live, so if they won't do remote, then they just don't have a compelling offer. My quality of life would suffer too much. The most important and overlooked part of the hiring pipeline is employee retention, and my employer has already retained the $%^&* out of me by letting me work remote.
Kia (and Hyundai their ouroboros relative; apparently they each own minor stakes in each other and which is the parent company depends on which financial winds you prefer) is presumably also feeling a lot of pressure from the home Asian markets. Nissan believed almost ten years ago that EVs were the only path forward and has R&D invested to that point (the Leaf, their Renault portfolio). Toyota also accidentally built themselves a fiefdom with the Prius despite their leadership still thinking Hydrogen might still upset EVs (which looks increasingly unlikely for cars; maybe for other diesel uses), but with the luck that a good Hydrogen drive chain is a good EV drive chain with a different "battery".

Plus, all the Chinese EV-only brands trying to disrupt the car industry entirely (BYD, Nio, etc).

With BMW and VW both talking about plans to have their entire catalogs electrified as soon as 2023, German manufacturers may finally be feeling the existential crisis at hand and are trying to compete.

(It's American manufacturers that are probably the most at risk right now. GM and Ford aren't yet feeling enough pressure from Asian imports nor Tesla. The irony of "dieselgate" helping the US EPA force the hands of European manufacturers more firmly towards EV fleets, but not appearing to make a similar strategic impact on American manufacturers fleets is probably going to be fog thick in the next few years.)

This is completely anecdotal, but I have an alternative Twitter account where I interact with Japanese people I know, and I rarely hit the 140 characters limit except when I’m in a heated debate (or when I’m VERY excited about something).

There's no tradition that should ever be protected just because it's a tradition.

If people want to do something that's a tradition and is totally harmless, that's fine, but then it shouldn't need any protection. You only need "protection" because there's some reason the tradition can't continue without it.
Why do you tell us, not the author of the web page?
My EV has always done fine through northern Michigan winters. Range does decrease due to temp -- but it's only temporary, you get that range back in the spring when the weather warms up again.

And normal car stuff works with EVs. (Every EV can pre-condition, which is effectively equivalent to a block heater, already built into it by default so you can pre-heat your car in the winter while it's still charging, to get some extra range).
This mystery will be with us for a long time. Real stumper.

You can do all that over an encrypted connection [1] if you like. All this protocol nitpicking kind of ignores that IRC is a stack that is a) open to a multitude of clients and thus use cases (vs. all those fancy web-things that offer me either lockin and emojis or a lack of user base) and b) proven over decades. Yeah, it has it's inherited edge cases and downsides but this thread makes it seem like it's a stupid idea somebody came up with in 2 hours, which it is absolutely not.

Remote work is the most dehumanizing experience I've ever encountered.

Regular jobs start to feel like panhandling, but remote work feels like the telemarketers version of panhandling. It almost sounds like that could be an improvement, but you'd be surprised.

splitting a story up into as many tiny pieces as possible

Honestly I think that's the intended outcome from the business's perspective. The smaller the piece of work, the easier it is to assign a cost and a benefit to it, and the easier it is to hand off to another developer.

Materials Project | Berkeley, CA | ONSITE | Full-time | https://materialsproject.org

Berkeley Lab (https://www.lbl.gov/) is looking for a talented web developer who will work on building powerful web-based tools for materials scientists on the Materials Project team (see https://materialsproject.org). The Materials Project is one of the world’s foremost databases of computed materials science data, and has helped pioneer a change in how we design and search for new materials, with a large active community of users in both academia and industry. We use millions of CPU hours a year in our calculations, and all of this data is publicly available and free of charge, and we develop all our software openly and under open source licenses.

This is a great opportunity for a developer with an interest in science and energy-related innovation. You'll work with a team of scientists and engineers and will have a major impact on any aspect of the project that interests you — from application architecture to data visualization.

A successful applicant will have experience in:

* HTML/CSS

* JavaScript — someone who is happy to help maintain our legacy platform {Backbone.js, CoffeeScript, Require.js} but is also not afraid of new technologies where appropriate {React / Plotly Dash}

* Web services technologies and REST APIs

* Information visualization — knowledge of javascript graphing libraries such as {d3, HighCharts, Plotly} and understanding of information visualization techniques highly relevant

Ideal applicants will also be experienced with:

* Python and Django (or similar framework)

* Writing unit- and end-to-end tests for client side applications

* Unix environments

* User interface design principles

A successful applicant will also:

* Be keen to work as part of a small team, including working with other researchers (graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, collaborators) who are excited about sharing their data with the world

If you're interested in applying, or you simply want to ask some questions about the position (I’m the team’s lead web dev), feel free to ping me at dwinston@lbl.gov. The official position description and application portal is at <https://jobs.lbl.gov/jobs/web-developer-1934>, but because Berkeley Lab is a public research institution, the hiring/contract style is different than a typical industry job (e.g. “1-year term appointment” means guaranteed for 1 year at minimum -- this position definitely has long-term, extension-without-reapplication potential; full benefits start from day 1; etc.), so again please feel free to ping me for any clarification. :)

Yep, my point when asking you to clarify was to see whether you were making this argument: "the Supreme Court will let basically anything crazy count as free speech, so why not this?" It seems like indeed you were.

But Citizens United doesn't rely on a broad interpretation of freedom of speech at all. It relies on a broad interpretation of freedom of association. Supporting various political views is "speech" by any possible understanding -- that's not broad at all. The main "innovation" of Citizens United is that when people form associations (like corporations) they retain certain rights, such as freedom of speech.

A better analogy would be if we already all agreed that individuals have the right to send encrypted messages, and we were discussing whether corporations retained the same rights. Then you'd have a point, bringing up Citizens United. But when discussing whether people have some underlying right at all, it doesn't seem relevant.
Seattle job search in 2018 revealed almost zero companies who did remote work. Butts in seats appeared mandatory. Kinda weird.

I personally think it reveals a generally weak management culture, along with issues with employee development and training inculcating self-starting thought.
I mean, this is a good philosophical question, and I think the answer tends to just be "whatever a news organization decides to write about", so clearly this counts.

But I think what makes for interesting news are things that are new and non-obvious. The point of the thread starter (which resonated with me) is that this is neither. What rubs me wrong about the article is that it lacks context. From just this article, this sounds like a novel threat. But it's ludicrously far from that. You could write the same article about every communication system used by every business ever. For instance, tons of important stuff is still required to be done by fax, which is far less privacy-preserving than Slack. Email remains pretty much universally unencrypted.

The article doesn't try to grapple with this context at all, which makes it read oddly to me.

Don't forget that you also pay hidden costs when you forgo static proofs. It may be that you need to write more explicit tests by hand, or that you pay for the lack of verification with increased run time errors in production.
I would suggest the moon over mars, as a base of operations for asteroid mining. I believe it is critical that we learn how to mine asteroids, so that we can also get good at moving them out of the way when they start to move towards Earth.

Depends on the goal of Apple Retail. I don't think their primary objective is to make money. I think they should rather be viewed as more of the marketing arm of Apple Corp. They don't appear to skimp on their operations so I can see their margins being incredibly thin to the point of non-existent.

> One side is signed up for incremental delivery, and one side is set up for a fixed scope and deadline and the result is misery.

This is a brilliant summary, thank you.

The best 'agile' experiences I've had are situations where the 'clients' are directly involved, often within the same organization. Instead of a hard scope or deadline, there's just a shared interest in producing a valuable product efficiently, and the users are on-hand throughout the process for feedback and reevaluation.

The worst experiences have been waterfall contracts, developed by an internal simulation of agile. The software team does frequent "releases" to business or management, who provide feedback and feature requests, but the actual recipients are uninvolved outside of occasional demos, or contacted only indirectly by non-programmers. The result is almost always thrashing, with time and effort spent pointlessly satisfying the forms of agile even though the real timeline and customer feedback are unyielding.

They didn't know about those at the time of release; they were mistakes. The recent MacBook Pro got an extended repair program as it was released. Which could be either a way to assure customers, or a recognition of the fact that the kb was still too delicate and they had no choice but to put it out anyway.

I'm the same way but only about 15 years experience. I have a friend recently retired who has done a wide variety of software development since the era of punch cards (at least 40 years development) and he agrees with me entirely.

I'm not sure how people can provide any reasonable estimates, especially these days when technology is shifting even faster under your feet unless it's a clone of something you've already done in a specific set of technologies that haven't changed.

For me, I simply make a very conservative guess and use a 2x or 2.5x multiplier to be safe. I'm usually far ahead of schedule but there have been occasions I as happy I added a 2.5x multiplier in. Everyone is typically happy... the fact is, my estimates are garbage.
Except I might not be working in a terminal, I might not have the file available locally (I personally don't have any stored on my computer). Like the poster above I'd like to drag and drop something from a tab to the conversation, and not have to deal with the steps between. That's what technology is about after all.
