Would you trust LetsEncrypt more if the US DOJ ran it?

I really don't know how I can respond to this comment any better than I already did, years ago:

https://sockpuppet.org/blog/2015/01/15/against-dnssec/

As you'll see, I have multiple reasons to believe DNSSEC is a powerful net negative for the Internet. The simplest one to communicate is that unlike LetsEncrypt, whose nuts-and-bolts security DNSSEC does not improve on, DNSSEC also escrows out authority to world governments. But there are other arguments that are actually more meaningful to me, such as the clunky, 1990s design of its cryptography and the near-certainty that its installed base will be RSA-dependent for the protocol's entire lifespan, be it 1 year or 20.

That piece goes into a lot more detail that I won't belabor here.

My point on this thread though is simple and factual and descriptive: an ordinary user of the Internet --- in fact, even an ordinary software developer on HN --- can expect to interact with the Internet at length without ever once coming into contact with a website on a DNSSEC-signed zone. You see DNSSEC brought up on these threads as if it was an important operational security concern for people setting up Pi-Holes and whatnot, and you know as well as I do that's simply false. You probably assume at first blush that I'm snarking when I say the DNSSEC root keys could be Pastebinned to no real ill-effect, but if you think about it for a few minutes I think you'll find that I'm not snarking at all. You want DNSSEC to work, and you're right, I don't, but neither of us can kid each other about the fact that it's not working now.

calcsam: How do you think about defensibility? One might think that because the underlying tech is open source, someone else can also spring up a hosting service. Is that not an issue because agencies would want the official hosting for the open source project because they want the reassurance?

Or is it for another reason this isn't an issue?
Any advice on how to do that? I mean, my parents are alive so I'll need to wait (or something) but they don't have any money to speak of. I could try to make that much and then give it to them, but it seems needlessly complex given the end goal. How does one go about getting rich parents? Asking for a friend.

Never drove the car. But I must say it's funny bordering on tragicomic when they mention use cases for the Summon as e.g. "when dealing with a fussy child", then go on to say in the very next sentence

"Those using Smart Summon must remain responsible for the car and monitor it and its surroundings at all times."

Sure, when I'm dealing with a fussy kid in a parking lot, I can monitor the car over there and its surroundings at all times. That's what I usually do, forget about watching the kid.

Swift feels like a Frankenstein language though, there are so many keywords and new ones get added in every update. This article here [1] stack ranked a few languages by number of keywords and Swift is #4 on the list. And in Swift 2.1 they added some more, like properties wrappers and the `some` keyword. It gets hard to keep track of them all and the special behavior each one implies.

On the other hand, you can kind of make your own language within Swift because most of the keywords aren't required but allow some additive features. For example, some features help you write your code functionally and others support a declaritive style. It reminds me of what's going on with Babel and JavaScript, where babel extensions are like these language plugins you can mix and match to create your own language.

If you think of metaprogramming as a way to build your own language within a language, lisps and Ruby were kind of like pioneers of a build-your-own-language trend. I could see that as an interesting direction, I wonder if people have tried it before.

That could definitely happen, but it would have to happen at the same time the car's normal collision avoidance systems fail. Certainly possible to happen, but probably pretty unlikely.
Its becoming clear that DDR4 RAM is "just another I/O system".

RAM has always forced CPUs to stall: refresh events are the most common (RAM is refreshing the voltage on all memory: it takes a long time and the CPU may have to wait in rare cases). But modern multicore CPUs have to have this coherency fabric to ensure that the different cores see memory in the correct order.

It doesn't really matter if the CPU is stalling because of a memory refresh, or a CPU-exclusive hold on some RAM... or even I/O pretending to be a CPU-core holding some RAM. The CPU's method of attack remains the same.

-------

This is most clear with Intel's Optane DIMMs, persistent storage that operates over the DDR4 protocol, pretending to be RAM. Slower than true DDR4 yes, but fast enough that it wanted to move off of PCIe and pretend to be DDR4 RAM. I expect more and more I/O to be "pretending to be RAM" in some effect, either through a coherency fabric or maybe even just copying the DDR4 protocol (like Optane).

I consider myself lucky. Mine was the last year that taught computer courses on QNX in my high school. We learned boolean math, and introductory programming with languages such as Cobol, Pascal, Logo, C, etc. We also got into some early sort of virtual assistant thingy and AI with a talking interface that looked like a cartoon woman (sorry I forget her name).

The year before, we learned some assembler to compare with BASIC's PEEK and POKE commands on a CBM (I still remember the glee experienced when learning a POKE location that turned the screen into a virtual cylinder, freaking the teacher out with concerns we'd burn the screen edges...)

The years that came after my attendance learned solely on Microsoft Windows. They learned way more about spreadsheets than anyone that isn't an accountant should ever care about. The only language they learned to code in was Turing, and they only barely got into Boolean operations (surprisingly).
I doubt these terms were introduced by Wikipedia -- they're just reflecting the diversity of things that exist out there.

At the base configuration (single 8-core Xeon W) with 256GB SSD and 32GB RAM for $6000, it's about twice what it should be. I could build a faster dual Xeon Silver series with more cores, Nvidia graphics, much larger SSD and 32GB RAM in a nicer case for around $3000. So, that Apple logo and macOS are the other $3000.

Well, I wouldn't make such a categorical statement about latency. I remember an early Amiga word processor that had an unbelievably laggy and slow UI, such that it was basically unusable.

The Mac mouse pointer was always responsive due to interrupts, but that didn't mean that what you clicked on was.

However, the thing that I hate most about the modern web and similar UIs is that they reflow or otherwise move the content you are looking at after you click and before the click is mapped to an element, so you don't get what you click or tap on. This is absolutely unforgivable in my opinion, and absolutely not a matter of degree or grey areas unlike most of the things people complain about.
Not sure how you came to that conclusion. Part availability is a valid complaint about tesla. This seems to just be a blatant attack on the poster for no reason.

It already is. If you wake up one morning, and somebody else has been withdrawing money from your account, or charging your credit card, the bank already is liable for that, and will reimburse you. The losses from fraud are already written into their margins, the same way the losses from shoplifting are written into a retailers margins.
It looks exactly like what used to probably be called "cookbook".

The first cookbook I recall was for Perl, and I later saw other language users try to emulate that, and even use the tasks it identified as a template for their own language's cookbook.

I save "idiomatic" for programming linguistic style guidelines that, for many tasks, help select among multiple ways of doing a task (or of larger structuring/approach). For example, in Scheme, tending to avoid mutations, structuring algorithm implementations to use tail calls, using first-class closures, using syntax extension for minilanguages/DSLs, etc. Pythonistas might call their own popular style "Pythonic".

There's overlap with cookbook-type stuff. For example, in some language that permits both approaches, maybe the approach of folding over a set of filenames is arguably more idiomatic than the approach of constructing a list of filenames. Consequently, the cookbook example might be of the folding approach. I don't want to call that particular task an idiom, because I find the term useful for a different purpose, but there's overlap.

Cookbooks often answer the question "which library and/or calls do I use".

If the cookbook spends time on more general tasks, like "coding an algorithm" or "traversing a collection", then the discussion might be more about what's idiomatic in the language.

Some of the fuzzy distinction might be analogous to the fuzzy distinction between language and library.

Maybe someone has better terms or definitions?

That would be false. They might have moved to osm recently, but Tesla’s basemap has been TomTom since ‘17. Google data might have been used for POI, but never for basemap or navigation.
A language with keyword arguments helps against this. Crystal has a great compromise IMO where you can call the same arguments positionally and as keywords based on the argument name.
IMHO this concept is better solved by using semantics, such as types, keyword parameters, interfaces, traits, etc:

copy(source: ReadOnlyFile, destination: WriteOnlyFile)

These all help make the code more semantic, more testable, and more securable.

These can also improve more kinds of programming, such as a function that truly needs multiple parameters of the same type (e.g. iterators that are not commutative) or a function that benefits from security aspects (e.g. read-only data).

> If we are going to be pedantic about this, and you pretty much have to be given the topic, a parking violation is not considered a traffic violation. Obviously a private parking lot isn't some completely lawless place, but many (most?) traffic laws don't apply there.

So you can drive like 50 mph or do donuts, violate crosswalks with pedestrians in them, etc? Does your jurisdiction have no laws on reckless driving, exhibition of motor, etc?

Sure the stop sign might not be the legal height required by your roadway authority but see if that stops a cop from citing you if you blow through it without observing traffic (aka drive recklessly).

Sure, the tone of what I was responding to was that it was impossible to do things differently. Kind of like an American explaining why universal healthcare is impossible.

Having bankruptcy at all is an attempt at making a situation full of inherent conflict more orderly and less disruptive, so it isn't obvious why one must execute its provisions in a disruptive manner.
> We can whack this mole, but really we just need a credit law (or convention from VISA/Mastercard) applied in as many countries as possible that says all charges on a credit card need to be pre-approved.

That would help, but it wouldn't completely stop the abuse. I recently decided to try out the VPS offerings at [a major cloud provider]. I paid for one month of a VPS with Paypal, quit using it before the end of the month, and didn't pay for another month. Unlike every respectable cloud provider I've ever used, they apparently wanted me to navigate their interface to figure out how to cancel the VPS and do that. Instead they kept it running for another two months (they say), and after one attempt to contact me by email (which I missed), turned my entire account over to collections, with all the mess that entails for me.

So even preventing recurring charges won't necessarily help if the companies move to claiming that you never canceled your subscription and then trying to bill you for it later, or sending your account to collections.

TL;DR - most of what is added in 2019 I can already do with Ramda.js, and it works in IE11, as well.

Ahh, I understand what you're saying.

My blog post goes through the process for inbound candidates, which accounted for the majority of our hiring. We did actively try to poach folks as well. I spent literally 4 years trying to recruit one of my friends out of Microsoft.

For these folks, you need to sell, sell, sell your vision, product and team. They're not going to switch unless they're really pumped. All of this work to get them excited happens before the interview process even begins.

I think for these people the difficulty of the interview process is a small issue relative to the risk of switching away from a job they already like.

I'd assumed that was the motivation for the OPM hack. Helps root out agents and handlers since they have SF-86 forms and biometrics, but also a massive database for identity fraud. Also helps with money laundering, which even richer states can benefit from.
I guess I didn't make my point very well. Which was: of course you can take your municipal government to court over how they dole out stalls at a market they run. An important principle in most modern legal systems is that various entities are treated fairly by the government. But no such principle exists in a private marketplace, which was created by a private entity to further its own ends (with the usual caveats about protected classes and monopolies being exceptions; neither of those exceptions apply here, though).
In some cases this can be fixed by introducing a new type, especially if the language makes it nice to support as a literal. This confers additional benefits in terms of type-checking.

For example, changing an ambiguous foo(float x, float y) into foo(distance x, weight y) .

Here is what I don't understand: you paid a small fortune for your car and if this was any other car from any other manufacturer you would react like your parent comment.

But because it is a Tesla you are dismissing all the issues and sell it as the best car ever. This wouldn't fly with any other car. If you spent 50k$ on a Audi with poor quality you would probably complain about it.

It is a pattern I see with nearly all the other TM3 owners that dismiss every single issue.

Really trying to understand but what is so different with a Tesla? Is it the Hype factor? The feeling to be in a religious group?

There are private jets (aka baller) and there are private jets (corporate airline). I assume We was the first and Walmart the second.

I worked for a Fortune 500 that ran two commuter jets that few to each of their major sites each day.

Why did they have them? Because the volume made it cheaper than airline tickets. If I remember they billed the respective cost center $150 each way.

All the stops were in the NE US.

Still, it was luxurious compared to commercial travel. No security checks, board, close the door and take off.
