Not in my experience.

"Firing the responsible" may be an overly-strong comment -- putting pressure on the line rather than improving line management is the upshot of what I'm getting at.

Though truly boring can be a good sign if it's the result of good planning, drilling, practices, and rewarding competence. If it's from complacency, failure to recognise problems, or the ability to push fault or failure off on others (clients, customers, vendors, suppliers, other departments), not so much.

The good sign then is understanding why and how they got to boring.

Curious question: what is "the punk test"?
WhatsApp’s original model was $1 a year. That would have been a reasonable fee even for most developing countries. Job posting sites make money from the poster and don’t have to be ad supported.

Those limitations are true of most virtual machines. Lua bytecode has no opcodes for doing I/O, invoking syscalls, or anything else that interacts outside the VM environment. AFAICT, Python is similar with the exception of some opcodes for printing to stdout. To interact with the outside environment you must load and invoke code from modules, so access is intrinsically limited by whatever modules are permitted to be loaded. In Lua a new VM state context has no modules loaded at all--not even for the string module; nor any ability to load modules--the C application needs to explicitly load the package module to register "require" in the environment.
> The CBO estimates it will cost $3 trillion a year to provide universal healthcare.

That’s not $3T on top of what we currently spend, though. It just moves payments that go to insurers over into taxes. We already spend that $3T (and more!) on health care.

We know from the rest of the developed world that this is cheaper, too.
That is still our policy but we recently added something to https://about.gitlab.com/company/strategy/#breadth-over-dept... that might be relevant:

"So breadth over depth is the strategy for GitLab the company. GitLab the project should have depth in every category it offers. It will take a few years to become best in class in a certain space because we depend on users contributing back, and we publish that journey on our maturity page. But that is the end goal, an application of unmatched breadth and depth."
I ran into the something similar with Cigna and Kaiser (albiet for a much smaller dollar amount), I called both entities prior to going to urgent care and described the care I needed (xray, splint) and was told that the copay would cover it. Lo and behold, I got stuck with the majority of the $500 bill, wish I had not gone in retrospect.
> I disagree, because historically major cryptos have allowed known attacks to succeed if they targeted a member of the public at large, and have defended only if they targeted named insiders.

Surely you aren't going to make such a statement without examples! I can think of examples where things were attacked, including some of the largest value destructions, and insider status didn't help. For example, the multisig thing that happened to Gav Wood (the second time).

If your lone example is the Dao attack, that looked like successful governance to me.
The OP explains her pains and suffering.

Lesson for others starting now: For what she suffered, from just holding the instrument, there is a really simple solution -- look at some pictures and now some video clips.

That's some progress for others on some of what she suffered.

It's simple progress, part of the first lesson in violin 101, even earlier than how to tune the instrument -- a violin needs to be tuned again about each 20 minutes of playing.

Sure, the progress is only for the first lesson in violin 101 and not a single, full path to a career as a violinist. Obvious.

You are reading into my writing assertions I did not make and then beating up on me for those.

Again, yet again, over again, once again, one more time, just dirt simple and potentially quite valuable: Beginning violin students need to know how to hold the instrument. Getting this correct at the beginning is important because, as in the OP, getting it wrong can hurt the whole effort for life. But getting it correct is just dirt simple -- look at some good pictures or, now, videos of some good violinists. Simple. Dirt simple. Potentially valuable for beginning violin students. Good contribution. NOTHING WRONG.

What IS wrong is your wildly over active imaginations and extrapolations.

I'm not being critical of the author of the OP. You are being critical of me, throwing me to the sharks, for NOTHING WRONG.

And for "Carpel tunnel and tendonitis" the situation in the OP seems to be related to problems holding the violin and more generally -- understand that if something hurts, then don't do that. It's not supposed to hurt.

There was an old newspaper story about why Heifetz retired from giving concerts. The remark was "Only two things go wrong with a violinist, their bow arm and their nerves. I can assure you there is nothing wrong with Heifetz's bow arm." Net, violin just ain't NFL football -- it ain't supposed to hurt, not even after decades.

Unencrypted patient medical information is being broadcast across Vancouver
>No. Of course not. What exactly is your question?

My point was that it's hardly as clear cut as a piece of land and you know it. You posted a link to W's Trespass of Chattels, which I think is funny because it exactly proves my point. From your link:

>...several companies have successfully used the tort to block certain people, usually competitors, from accessing their servers. Though courts initially endorsed a broad application of this legal theory in the electronic context, more recently other jurists have narrowed its scope. As trespass to chattels is extended further to computer networks, some fear that plaintiffs are using this cause of action to quash fair competition and to deter the exercise of free speech; consequently, critics call for the limitation of the tort to instances where the plaintiff can demonstrate actual damages.

It is not at all clear that what we're discussing here is a clear violation. It's very debatable and the law itself was never envisioned to apply to scraping websites (because they didn't exist yet!) It also goes on to say (in the US)

>One who commits a trespass to a chattel is subject to liability to the possessor of the chattel if, but only if,

>(a) he dispossesses the other of the chattel, or

>(b) the chattel is impaired as to its condition, quality, or value, or

>(c) the possessor is deprived of the use of the chattel for a substantial time, or

>(d) bodily harm is caused to the possessor, or harm is caused to some person or thing in which the possessor has a legally protected interest.

The only clause there which even begins to help your case is the 'value' part of clause b and, again, that's very debatable.

> you can take it up with the courts that made the decisions that gave the information I posted.

Decisions made by court A get overturned by court B all of the time. We'll see where it lands, but we're not there yet (again, my point!)
"Wallet" is widely used and well-defined, but it doesn't refer to something that can be observed in the blockchain. In the blockchain we can observe keys and scripts; a wallet is a usually-encrypted data file containing a potentially large number of keys.
So, the unfortunate reality of prioritizing customer wants like this is that you're always going to focus on big shiny new features, and not quite so much the smaller (while still important) bug fixes that really need consideration I feel. I felt like I got shoved into a black hole, and it does not inspire faith in your product anymore. Even if I did become a customer, which I was seriously considering before this, we're going to be "too small" to make a dent compared to your bigger customer base.
Exhibit A should be Eric Schmidt's book 'The New Digital Age' in which he explains his view that because Google is rich, they should therefore take the reigns of global culture and decide the moral and social norms of society. He is not terribly secretive about the fact that he believes he is inherently Better than the masses and should be a large player in herding the public 'for their own protection.' Of course that just so happens to amount to ossifying global culture in the exact state it was in when Google rose to prominence in the early 2000s but I'm sure that's a total coincidence.
Please stop making arguments that are easy to shoot down, you're just fighting for the side you're trying to oppose.

> With our current system epipens are like a thousand bucks

No, they're not. One brand name EpiPen or EpiPen Jr. package (which contains 2 auto-injectors) will cost roughly $650-$700 if you are paying cash. Plus, you should be buying a generic, not the brand name.

> with our current system insurance can say no to treatment.

If they couldn't, then a lot of people would be getting the "super expensive experimental buy unlikely to help treatments". Sure, insurance companies turn down things they should not, but they also turn down things they should. Don't push for them to never be able to say no. Instead, push for them to only be able to say no when it makes sense.

If you're going to make arguments for universal healthcare (or even better healthcare), then do so in a responsible manner. Otherwise, you're just hurting the overall effort.
If you're servicing a computer that person isn't exactly sharing that information with you. Well, probably not intentionally.

It doesn't matter if the US government is doing the attacking, they're not winning with general purpose hardware. ASICs are literally thousands of times faster with lower power consumption than GPUs. Also, any state attacker worth their shit would have the ability to develop their own ASICs so I don't know why you're hung up on using general purpose hardware.

Finally, you certainly cannot buy off the ASIC miners with a few million, not least because they own billions of dollars worth of ASICS that can't do anything but mine Bitcoin, and a successful state-orchestrated attack on Bitcoin would make all of them worthless. I don't think a state government taking down Bitcoin by its own rules is completely impossible, but you don't seem to have any grasp of the scales involved.
It won’t. The US is structurally incapable of offering public services efficiently: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/28/nyregion/new-york-subway-...

> And The Times observed construction on site in Paris, which is building a project similar to the Second Avenue subway at one-sixth the cost.

This is an extreme example, but this is the persistent story of government programs in the US: they do far less while costing far more than in European countries. The US spends almost 30% more per student on K-12 education while getting worse results.
RoMeLa's Newest Robot Is a Curiously Symmetrical Dynamic Quadruped
State governments have simpler and more reliable ways to attack the system. Like armies. Buying off the miners would require at least a few hundred million dollars—you'd need to buy the hardware to pull off an attack like that, not just rent it for a while. And you still wouldn't manage to get anywhere near the full market cap by shorting Bitcoin while you do it. You'd never find anyone crazy enough to loan you that much. A small fraction, perhaps. Not enough to cover your expenses.

And in the end, after your massive investment, the community would just make some trivial change to the protocol and completely ignore the attack. Really, if this sort of thing was so easy then everyone would be doing it. You're certainly welcome to try.
Well, I got stuck with a $17k bill once. They usually require that I pay the bill first out of pocket, then they settle the difference. Also a series of unfortunate events can happen if you are an immigrant.
There is a reason you're lurking on HN instead of working in a hedge fund.

You assume you can take the liquidity and risk factors out of a 51% attack. You also assume you can procure that amount of hardware. You also you can procure it instantly.

Bitcoin is at least immune to imaginary 51% attacks, so I don't think anyone has anything to be worried about from your fake imaginary hedge fund.
maybe. my experience has been that most people that say they use k8s manage the whole thing. people that use k8s on gcp usually mention gcp.

"August 1945" is a bit of a stretch. Cyberattacks can be severely devastating (for instance, if Russia had opted to spin Ukraine's generators out of phase when they attacked with DarkEnergy, they could have literally destroyed the power grid), and it's hard to objectively gauge impact of things like the DNC leaks, but subtle sabotage and espionage are old tools of tradecraft, and it was inevitable that nation-state APTs would emerge.

It's fascinating to learn more of how these attacks work though, and how human assets are used alongside cutting-edge zerodays.
Thanks for submitting it!
Imagine if the local government benefited from more cobras. Then this cobra anecdote would be quite a genius move by them to achieve the end result while maintaining plausible deniability throughout. Looking at the effective incentive structures rather than intent is a good lesson for evaluating systems. But in terms of incentives to think this way, I think the strongest incentive is that likely 'unintended' consequences do not exist. The consequences are fully intended and concealed. The stated intent is PR. The benefactors of the 'unintended' consequences are involved in the planning. 'Unintended consequences' are not accidents they are a widely used strategy.

Meta-comment: I'm increasingly suspecting that it's not tech hiring that's broken, but the tech labour model.

Specialisation is high, training is long, skillsets frequently expire quickly (at least relative to careers / education), certification lags worse than training does, in many instances, and information aquisition costs on both sides of the hiring line are high: employers have difficulty in finding good/suitable candidates, candidates have difficulty in finding and/or assessing good employment fits.

Rewards once on a gig are highly disproportionate, with some high-paying companies, a strong gamble on equity (usually fails to pay off, very rarely does), and increasingly draconian employment terms and contracts (again, California law is exceptional, but as labour gets priced and simply slotted out by housing prices and unavailability, other centres with far less favourable working conditions may gain traction).

The idea of working as an individual at a given company for 18-36 months, then moving on (typical job tenancy) seems highly inefficient.

Chunking labour into a force that can be deployed might address that. Less a union than a guild, perhaps. Structuring that (and accommodating various state's and nation's employment and organisation laws) is an interesting challenge.
Yes. Also, an attack would be fairly obvious and miners invested in the future of the blockchain (i.e. everyone using ASICS, which is everyone that matters) would increase their hashrate to mount a defense, increasing the cost by some hard-to-predict but significant amount.
I wonder if a pullback by WeWork would potentially close the "window" for IPOs meaning other tech companies that want to go public but haven't so far will have to wait longer.

I don't really use gitlab, but I wrote my own git implementation recently (https://github.com/oridb/git9), and I've had bug reports when people tried to use it on gitlab.

Apparently it can deadlock processes on the server, stopping the clone -- and they never get cleaned up. While they don't prevent anyone else from using the machine, they do sit around wasting resources, and potentially causing a denial of service attack.

I figured out bugs for github's issues, but I haven't been able to find one for gitlab's, and they've been pretty silent on the bug that someone else filed about this as far as I can tell.

It didn't feel like a particularly easy to trace system when I tried debugging.

caniuse.com is generally a go to on seeing what the current level of support for a JS or DOM feature. MDN has very good, very similar charts (some of it originally sourced from caniuse charts, but I think a lot of it is contributed directly by browser metadata now and the flow of information has started moving the other direction).

Generally a heuristic that people use (it's now most often the recommended Babel preset, for instance) is "last two major browser" versions, which the caniuse charts make easier to visualize than the MDN charts. You might be surprised how many features meet this heuristic today (fat arrows are well supported for instance, are supported according to this heuristic).
You lent that money to a shady organization. Once you lent it, it was no longer your property. You then became a creditor of that organization and your coins became their assets.
