I'm looking for a permanent or contract position as an Information Security Engineer. With 5+ years experience in the Managed Services industry as a security professional mostly dealing with network and host security, I'm currently looking for something involving more web-security or penn testing. I'm passionate about security and computer science in general. I'm working towards my CISSP certification and have recently began Bug hunting w/ Bugcrowd! I'm a excited to hear from you.
A solid alternative is Intel's Multi-OS Engine: https://multi-os-engine.org/

All it does is let you write iOS UI code in Java or Kotlin, and target both iOS and Android from a single project.

It uses the actual underlying iOS API, and simply provides Java wrappers for them, that map one-to-one.

I keep wondering, and don't know why it hasn't gained much traction. It is so much better than Flutter, is obviously reliable since it's a simple 1-1 mapping/translation layer. (There is more work involved with it, as you have to write the UI lawyer twice, but that's about it.)
> You're defending the Daily Stormer, do I read that correctly?

I don't think that's a fair reading of it - he's attacking CloudFlare's decision to remove it, not defending the Daily Stormer per se (in a "I will defend to the death your right to say it" sort of way was my reading of it).
I am arguing that if you believe in free speech, it must be admitted that that it is deeply immoral for them to get involved. It is up to their users to define what does and does not cross the line and respond with counter-arguments.
The issue isn't that they have fun on the weekends, it's that they would bring it up in a formal job interview. The interview is the absolute 100% best behavior you will ever see from them (bar a bit of nervousness), so I personally would see this as a major red flag.
The short and simple answer is because it is substantially faster (and has a hugely less memory overhead). It is easy enough to modify the c-python source to try this.

Why it is faster is the article helps cover... some of the tricks for optimizing small object allocation and reuse that c-python performs are not done by the c allocator. As to why THAT is, I can only appeal to your intuition that not all applications allocate memory in the same way so an allocator optimized for Python's behavior has an advantage.
I’m still waiting for anyone to realise that Cambridge Analytica main data source was augmented credit card data (Acxiom mainly), and the subsequent scandal.

Apple has the clout and the PR team to make that happen. They are still going after Facebook but I suspect they’ll go after credit cards soon enough.
I fully agree. The author seems to confuse "this AI predicts" with "the human brain does".

Looking at the quality of image recognition AI, for example the famous guacamole/cat or panda/gun mis-predictions, that's a very far stretch.

https://www.labsix.org/physical-objects-that-fool-neural-net...

I used to work on training a saliency-predicting NN and apart from "color and texture are great" it didn't learn much. So I would bet that taking a picture of the same building with a colorful sunset in your back, so that the sun's colors are reflected on the building but not visible in the sky, would generate a hugely different result.
You're mixing up net neutrality with freedom of speech issues. Net Neutrality seeks to regulate IP packet filtering and prevent transport providers from selling premium services ("fastlanes") to particular companies only. What content those companies deliver or (re-)transmit is not regulated by net neutrality at all.

I'm saying this not because I disagree with your position, but mainly because this confusion was dominating the debate in the US and was to some extent a deliberate strawman pushed by the opponents of net neutrality.
Yahoo should probably focus on getting the basics of email deliverability right first. They could have the best client side features by a distance, and I wouldn't go near them and would continue to tell others to avoid using them.

The number of times their servers reject emails at random, causing yahoo email users frustration, is astonishing for an email service provider. Contacting their postmaster to spell out the issue results in a dispute over email headers (which they insist can be obtained from their email client even though the emails are being rejected server side) - and their numerous problems go unsolved. We tell users to switch away from yahoo if they want to receive emails with a reasonable probability.

We've never had issues sending millions of emails to Gmail, outlook, or pretty much any large ESP other than yahoo.
I think there is a desire among people to have a simple guide to what markets are and why they exist, so I applaud the author on the idea and the intent.

However, many of the ideas are misunderstood. A couple months of playing around with a stock trading app and maybe reading some blog posts will not teach you what markets are or why they exist.

For quite some time, a significant amount of brain power has gone into understanding and improving markets. All of this work has resulted in significant complexity.

If I had to pick a place to start, were I to teach someone "Everything they ever wanted to know about the stock market," It would actually be with bonds. Lending money has been around for millennia. It is an amazingly simple, yet incredibly useful, idea. It's also extremely useful as a way of teaching someone about equity. Bonds and equities are intricately linked in their development and in the theory of valuation.
no. they used a smartphone app that is trying to predict where people would look.
I agree, but I'm still surprised at cloudflares decision.

If I'm hosting some content, I now have to worry about if my content might violate their opinions of 'tastelessness', and if so, I might be given 24 hours to leave.

If I were a customer, that's a small risk but a big impact. I'd prefer a provider that didn't do that.
Consider that every limitation to the first amendment ever allowed by SCOTUS was the government limiting the speech of a minority, and never the speech of a popular majority to protect a vulnerable minority, and then what you advocate for becomes empowering powerful people to silence the powerless.

I don’t consider being against that a flaw.

This reminds me of an actual Soviet joke:

"Pres. Reagan: Mr. Brezhnev, in the USA we have free speech- anybody can say in public: President Reagan is a fool!"

"Secretary Brezhnev: Pres. Reagan, in the USSR, we also have free speech- anybody can say in public: President Reagan is a fool!"
Not as simple as that. Some people clearly manage to create things effectively with it. Newcomers can see this but understand that there will be difficulties.

The difficulty for newcomers is anticipating where the pain points might be. Detailed articles like this are rare and a huge help with assisting with decisions on whether to invest time into it.
Sorry but a company saying they won’t put up with your bullshit is not in any way censorship. If a company hates puppies and they stop hosting sites with puppies that’s also not censorship. Go learn how to build your own service and put your bullshit there. Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences. 8chan exorcised their freedom of speech, and now there are albeit small consequences. That’s how the system is supposed to work.

People inevitably trot out counter examples that they believe will “own” my “libtard” views like the whole bakery thing. Should the bakery have had to make the cake for the gay customers? Nope. Their a business and can refuse service for whatever reason. Turns out there were some legal things involved. Guess what. Consequences.

We have a tenuous and often brittle social contract. The social contract decides what is and what isn’t ok. And once you break the contract there are often consequences. That’s not censorship. That’s existing in a society. Companies and people that don’t like those consequences are free to exit this society and begin their own at any time. But guess what. There’s consequences to that, too. The only real question is if they can be adults about it and accept those consequences. And in most cases they can’t.
Pity. It seems to be mobile only.

Have you an example in history when a lack of censorship posed a problem?

I don't, so I value it very much. There were attrocities in my countries in the name of common sense on the other hand.

Even if intuitive, censorship isn't an answer to anything.
Thanks haha, I had exposure to computers from a very early age, and I try to make functions/systems representing things I'm curious about. It's helped me grasp ideas and come up with new ones, and I should probably write about them more :P
Beautifully summed up by this XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1357/
Personally the software development tasks I have been doing are quite often separable in tasks that take several hours. Sometimes there are tasks that take days without clear separation.

I think asking whether it is discuss "whether you did line this amount of lines within X hours" is more like management and workplace culture than software development issue. It seems that people here are fed up with their managers and funnel that bad feeling against time tracking. In my opinion time tracking is valuable tool and should be used in principle almost everywhere. Bad managers of course make any type of work a pain.

That is your personal OPINION, not a fact!

There is no such thing as a "natural right of freedom of speech". If one sovereign in the history of mankind decides to allow unrestricted freedom of speech in its constitution, it is just that: an episode in the history of legal systems established by humans. It can turn out as a bad idea, or a milestone for better societies. We will see. In no way is it a "natural right". Not even would it be a natural right, if it was mentioned in the bible as one of the 10 commandments from god (disregarding the FACT, that there are some serious restrictions of freedom of speech in that: "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour").
Those who claim they're being punished whilst paying taxes are being dishonest and inaccurate. Unless they got punished after they decided to not pay their taxes (that is, as we agree, a punishment). However, such is a punishment by law, and therefore we should assume the punishment is fair (until proven otherwise).

The -in this example- sales tax gets in a big chest. Some of that chest goes to healthcare. Same for smokers.

You may disagree how your government spends their income (part of which comes from taxation). I don't agree with a lot of things my government does either; still I pay tax.

In our democratic societies there are various ways to take action. For example, you're free to vote for a different leader. We (in "the West"), at least, have these liberties.

Best Place to Relax
Every language item ends either with blocks (when a nested structure is required) or `;` (when it's not). They do not mix; if an item uses a block you don't need `;`.

So `type` needs no more blocks and ends with `;`, while `struct S { ... }` doesn't need `;`. Completing an example, there is another form of `struct` that looks like `struct S(u32);` which do need `;` by the aforementioned logic.

(The same logic applies to statements. You may think of an apparent exception like `{ println!("42"); 54 }`, but here `54` is an expression and you can't put a non-expression statement like `let x = 42` there without a semicolon.)

Re: ‘Your potential employer will objectively evaluate your skills and knowledge during the technical interview or a test task.’

Please remove the word ‘objectively’.

Employers have varying types of evaluation, none of which I would call objective. I think a company is doing fairly well if their evaluation is a (1) useful proxy for the work and culture and (2) updated on a regular basis.
Well, very situational question. My question here is mostly, what are the bad incentives caused when people time track their days for example in with 1 hour or 0,5 hour granularity with software development tasks? I have been doing that kind of tracking both professionally and in personal projects, and I don't see the harm caused.

I would not recognise this as a drug reference, but even if it is, as long as you restrict it to the weekends, I see no problem with it. Dancing with a woman does not automatically imply LGBTQ, and even if it did, seeing that as a lack of cultural fit is kinda awful; that'd be using 'cultural fit' as an excuse for discrimination.
I'm not shouting anything, and my "talking points" aren't pre-written. I'm sharing with you examples where organized labor lead to clear improvements in working conditions. The world before organized labor was truly awful and pretending otherwise isn't going to help advance your cause. You get to look backwards from the world of "weekends" and "unlocked doors" and assume they were always there, but the fact is they weren't, and organized labor is why. I'm not saying I support all the positions espoused by unions unequivocally however I do respect the role they play in pushing back against capital. In the end you've got organized labor on one side, capital on the other, and when the dust settles, a happy middle ground.
shares can occasionally give dividends

Shares don't give dividends. Companies give dividends. Shares are just how they work out who to give the money to.
Obviously there are lots of ways you can vitiate your ability to do this by being pathologically dysfunctional, all I'm saying is that the proposition isn't a priori unreasonable.

Your objection seems flawed to me in that it ignores the fact that goons can screw up just as badly on AWS as they can in a data centre.

Just the super weird "degrees are everything" culture. The foundation is, as helge5 mentions, that there are certain qualified professions where the guild should ~~get paid~~ certify everyone who practices. The stupidity is that "programmer" was counted as an "engineer," at least in my case. I see helge5 thinks you are allowed to practice CS without a qualification - I can only tell you that the Finanzamt Köln/Bonn disagreed.

And as the other commenters noted, I _did_ say "selbständig" when I meant "freiberuflich". Can I get away with blaming autocorrect? :)
The power is not unchecked.

It can be checked through lawsuit -- 8chan could conceivably sue Cloudflare under numerous doctrines, starting with breach of promise / breach of contract.

Another service provider could step up, as was the case with Daily Stormer, and is extensively commented upon in Prince's commentary, and provide services.

Regulatory or legal procedures could be established to specifically address this situation or provide redress.

Public outcry, market sanctions, or labour actions might be taken against providers who exercise such power in manners which are seen as morally reprehensible. For similar examples, see Google employees over Dragonfly or Edleman's emplyee backlash over a contract with a border-wall services company.

The question to be asked, the question we all have to ask, is whether or not individuals, groups, companies, or inchoate movements which are themselves dedicated to abolition or denial of civil order and rule of law are themselves deserving of its full protections in pursuing those ends. And a considerable case can be made for "no".
The whole reward concept is pretty alien to many of us. It's not something people know or care about in some countries.

I worked to a ecommerce site that entered a new market, after a few weeks a customer called and asked if we couldn't register with MasterCard as an electronic store, so he could get some reward when he shopped at our site. No one had any idea what the customer was talking about, because the reward system isn't really known here.

The rewards may be good for countries like the US, but Apple needs something else for other markeds. More specifically I think they need to be a bank and offer debit cards. Most people in Denmark have debit cards and very few have experience in having to "pay off credit cards". No late fees are irrelevant if all you even known is debit cards.
thanks for catching my mistake! I'm blaming auto-correct. :)
I have that 2.67% BAC Platinum Honors card, a Chase Sapphire Reserve card, and a Barclays Uber card (4% cash back at restaurants)

I plan to cancel them all when the Apple card comes out. Why? I hate the idea of banks, they should not exist in our digital world. A single US Treasury app on our phone could handle all payments and store our digital cash. Even though Apple card is through Goldman, its a pragmatic first step in eliminating these useless (retail) banks. At least thats my hope.
> If its not immoral to use drugs it shouldn't be immoral to talk about it.

I don't think I can agree with that reasoning in the context of a job interview. I wouldn't want to hear about your sex life either, but that doesn't mean you can't have one.

My proposal is to randomize the order at which orders arrive. Market makers are largely algorithms by now anyway.

Send orders all day, clear them once a day. Calculate the resulting quote.

Let go of the illusion that the real value of companies change every nano second. The fact that stock exchanges close at night and that for 12 hours, values don't change proves that it is not a necessity.

Having 12 hours instead than a few seconds to think about the impact of a given news on the stock market is going to give room to breath for actual investors.

It's also not immoral to have sex. It would be, at a minimum, very odd to share the blow-by-blow details of such activities the prior weekend with an interviewer. I don't think I'm being a prude to say I would probably close out that interview as soon as reasonably possible and move on.
Four years ago I experienced a severe breathing problems. A year later, it worsened and I was diagnosed of COPD.

Perhaps my argument can be simplified as follows. If everyone had the same models, they would pick the investment with the highest ROI adjusted for risk (ignoring externalities). That same investment is now not available for someone else: they now have to take the second best.
Strange. As someone from a developing nation, this is one aspect of US which I respect the most. The ability to say your mind without repercussions even if it is not politically correct.

In India, the governments are known to use sedition and other laws pretty liberally to silence free speech.

I'd rather that this "serious flaw" remain, than the US too become the same as any other nation, where posting a joke on the PM can lead to jailtime.
Your first point is why I’m quite skeptical of the narrative around “brilliant assholes”. Are they really an asshole, or do they just not communicate in the manner you’d prefer?
Given that it loads nearly instantly, as opposed to a new web page which needs to send off 1000 requests to pull in 0.5GB of media and ads that I didn't request -- I say it's pretty energy efficient.

Just look at energy per useful data transferred (define "useful" in some sane way). That high energy efficiency is why I favor HN over many other websites.
Your hypos fall well short of the level of actions undertaken by the two sites which have been terminated by CloudFlare, which advocated for, championed, and celebrated violent actions against innocent and blameless third parties, including children.

Not only this, but the discriminator component of the adversarial net requires the original output from the generative component.

Run the output of the generator through some noise, lens distortion, video compression, downscale it to a 480p surveillance style video, and the discriminator is at a huge disadvantage.
