That's an interesting pivot! We originally set out to enable healthcare apps to be created easily by doctors and nurses (we even had very complete unit test support at one point, which is important to get e-health apps through the certification process). It turned out, though, that financial calculators and the like made up a much larger part of the market, leading us to where we are today. It sounds like your journey has been similar, but with a different starting point.

Best of luck with Publisheet, you're off to a good start!
Just Do It™
I have no real experience designing hardware, but I do have a story about extreme waterfall in hardware design.

I was once in a meeting with some hardware people who were looking for help with the UX and complementary app for their product. They had already locked the hardware design, but had yet to decided what the buttons would actually do. Essentially, they were looking for help to come up with features for the buttons.

Thankfully I didn’t get the job.

I don’t even know if I’m “pirating” or not. There’s pretty much nothing on Netflix anymore, and I can’t even figure out how to sign up for HBO streaming (I think I have to get a code from cable provider first?) if I even cared enough to do so. I have found a few ad-supported/free streaming sites like Tubi and Popcornflix, plus some public domain streaming sites like publicdomainflix and archive.org. Are they legitimate? I don’t know - I have no way of even finding out.
yeah, this is super weird, it's a vector graphics editor, come on people, use GIMP or photoshop for images.

It's a barrier not just because of the sign up process which might only take a minute or less.

It's the ongoing thoughts that go through your mind like using github 99% of the time but having to context switch to a completely different app / UI for that 1 other project that uses gitlab. Unless that 1 project is incredibly useful then most of the time you'll talk yourself out of signing up or even browsing the repo (let alone contribute to it).

It's almost like people who use mailing lists for bug reports. It's such an out of place / cumbersome thing to sign up for vs filling out a github issue that you've done a 100 times already.

The power of familiarity is real. It takes astronomically sized benefits to get people to switch and from what I've seen gitlab has not done that (not because they are bad, it just hasn't happened yet) and the proof is in the results. If they did offer a massively better service than github then people would have already switched for open source projects.
All it does is raise the stakes. Thats why police forces in America are heavily militarised. I can guarantee that if Hong Kong citizens had guns the police would have a disproportionate answer that included more deadly weaponry than they already do.
not just hn. i've said it elsewhere. they may not even need to "look" in the future. They may just have systems in place that will just identify and catalogue all criticisms of china. And the system would then just pass your name through such a catalogue when doing a standard check on you as you pass through or travel there. Wouldn't be that hard for them to do.
Again, a completely different historical and logistical context, keep up the straw men!

Cloudflare's Approach to Research
Access control is not on a binary 'yes-or-no ' decision on a per single-signal basis.

It is usually a weighted result of multiple signals. For example, it may look at say 20 factors and have a failure threshold of 15 passed. Most of the signals are evaluated server-side.

By design, some signals used are picked such that customer convenience, among other things, is not affected (e.g. the account holder data pull automation that you describe in your example ).

Examples of signals include timezone, time of login vs. past logins, hardware profiling (OS, screen resolution, IP, ISP, VPN vs. no VPN - based on known VPN server lists ) etc.

I agree that not all banks are doing this but the more sophisticated ones are (quite a few of them). Point here is curl or headless browsers working is not evidence of only account and password being checked.

It sounds like the underlying cause in this particular case is a piece of software is running an open port that a lot of people don't even realize is there, and for some reason is exposed outside the firewall.

Take the case of "Offsite Image" as an example;

> The company referred ProPublica to its tech consultant, who at first defended Offsite Image’s security practices and insisted that a password was needed to access patient records. The consultant, Matthew Nelms, then called a ProPublica reporter a day later and acknowledged Offsite Image’s servers had been accessible but were now fixed.

> “We were just never even aware that there was a possibility that could even happen,” Nelms said.

That sounds like to me that they build a custom front-end to serve the images which was doing password authentication and billing, but failed to notice the underlying image server software was exposed and responding to queries with no authentication.

I'm guessing somewhere there's a configuration file which has a default IP binding of 0.0.0.0 and a blank password field.
Hrm thanks for the feedback (and sorry for being snappy). I had a play and it looks like some things work and others don't:

Those aren't "rights", those are "norms." When you engage in exceptional behavior (like suggesting a child sex slave's docile appearance excuses Minksy'd responsibility to not rape kids) then your norms may find themselves superceded.

But ultimately RMS's positon was one of political, not technical, leadership. With no more supporters, the FSF rejected him. Without the FSF, what purpose could he serve at his job?

Whole Foods has 91,000 employees, this effects 1900 of them - a little over 2% of the total or right around 4 people per store.

While it's unfortunate for those effected, it seems mostly a way to get more availability out of their employees rather than purely a cost savings measure.
I see several ways they could compete. For example, when I lived in Barcelona I had 300Mbps fiber to premise for about €55/m. It was excellent, but every month or so they'd do routine maintenance and I'd be without internet for a few hours. Not too bad, but this was enough to make it impossible for me to serve anything from my home computer. In a system like in Sweden, one of the providers could allocate and manage maintenance time in a way that it would be extremely rare for me to go without internet. Another way would be for different providers compete in how they handle burst speeds. I'd also be happy to have 1Gbps for 24h every month, and then 300Mbps for the rest of the time.

In short: Create a fair field for competition and ideas will come naturally.
How about “a country is a logical place to do that seeing as how they have an interest in having everyone access to health care and a dignified life”

If you had to design a system from scratch now there is no way you would come up with employer based health insurance. It’s a stupid system. Bad for citizens and bad for employers.
Or maybe the women are exaggerating. I don't see any "overwhelming" evidence from stallman. I see a man that isn't very sociable and the women are either taking it the wrong way or are making too big a deal about it.
I live in Longmont as well and can confirm that internet here is awesome. I've never once had to think about it and always get at least 800 Mbps.

Longmont as a city is great as well. People view it as a cheaper place to live than Boulder, but I'd much rather live here.

> A subscription to Netflix already grants me access to way more than I can reasonably watch. If my tastes were perfectly aligned with what Netflix offers

Your primary issue here is referring to volume. Netflix has their own content, then pays for a small handful of extremely popular/valuable titles (see the recent Seinfeld and Big Bang Theory streaming deals, as an example), and then the rest of their content library is cheap trash they got for pennies on the dollar. Entire markets now exist for making cheap movies just to fill out streaming catalogs. (Check out the business model of a company called The Asylum[1].)

Most of the value you're getting is in a very small portion of the overall library of any given company. People aren't going to stay subscribed to Disney+ because it has some old Disney shows which are $10 one-time to own on DVD. They're going to stay subscribed because it has the very latest handful of Disney titles.

> shareholder value is the root of the modern trend of devaluing people and treating them as line items in an expense report.

Private companies also use accounting and sometimes do not look out for their employees.

This isn't to nitpick, I just think there are other parts of the problem, not just shareholder value.

Although, yes, there might be additional pressure from shareholders when a company's finances are public, I don't see how it could be the root of the problem when the same thing happens in private businesses.

>modern weaponry and war waging abilities, are you joking?

The Taliban aren't joking.

You are grossly under-estimating what it takes to fight an insurgency. A military fighting in the same country on which it depends is vulnerable to attacks and sabotage on all its support infrastructure. You can't just carpet bomb areas of resistance because that creates more resistance elsewhere or destroy the country you're trying to control. It's a hard problem and on some level you have to get people on "your side" to win in any sort of long term sense.
People will make money somehow or another, but it’s not clear to me that we want to encourage these indirect monetization models. That’s basically the Android business model—don’t make money selling the OS, make money selling the data collected when people use the OS. It’s better for Watts to have had a temporary monopoly on engines than to encourage schemes where investors try to profit from a general increase in coal use.

Why is that hard to believe? If you only have a few shows that you want to watch, and each is on a different streaming service, is it unreasonable to balk at having to pay for several different services (each at over $10 a month) just for a few shows?

It's probably best to write in the language you are most comfortable in (which, if you're an émigré, might be a language you acquired later in life) and get translators to translate it into whichever languages have a viable market for it. If you have a good understanding of some of those languages then you can even supervise the translation. You'll get a better result that way and it'll probably cost less, too, if you value your own time.

Umberto Eco heavily supervised some of the translations of his books and has written about that process. He's rather a special case, of course: his books are not the easiest to translate even with the author's help.

Agree with you and parent. "Agile", in it's current form, is managements holy grail pursuit of commoditizing software development. It's the latest management fad to circumvent the law of fast, good and cheap. Quality software is engineered and is expensive to develop.
I brought up the 5G as an example of something that could change in the future. The problem is no one knows what is going to happen in 10-20 years.

This has several unintended consequences:

1) People stay in jobs they hate just for the insurance. This harms both the company and the individual.

2) It reduces entrepreneurship. In Canada if I want to start my own company, I don't have to worry about losing health insurance.

3) Children don't work (yet I guess) and old people don't work, so you need other systems to cover them, or just not cover them at all.

You are definitely right, but there are practical issues. I have a very tight budget that never lets me invest in new tools. Our team has learned (well as much as you can learn) VBA to solve more complex issues in Excel because it's easy to hand a complicated spreadsheet over to a non technical colleague get feedback rather than have an application developed. I'd love to learn how to do that kind of stuff, believe me, but it's just not where we spend our budget dollars. There's also info security concerns, and yes, you can argue how secure is a spreadsheet, but a cool tool like Publisheet will never get approved because we'd be sending all our data server side.

Armed militia will not win the fight in raw power terms, but it changes the governments position completely.
