If they want to use your compiled binary to compete with you somehow, buying one copy per app they want to put out of business seems like a better option instead of setting up a whole notirization scheme to trick you into uploading it to them.
The fact that they are capable of that is an OS flaw. Signing and all the rest is repairing a leaky dam with chewing gum.

Our OSes all date back to a time when security simply was not such a concern. All binaries almost have root. A modern OS would be least-privilege all the way.

Btw web browsers show that it is possible to run untrusted code locally in a sandbox and do so fairly safely.
Precisely!

Soldiers in an active military zone would almost certainly not be subject to any scrutiny or investigation for fatally shooting someone who they believed to be armed in the same situation.

Thanks for the supporting evidence!!!!
Does chrome releases multiple builds a day? Scanning usually takes less than 1 hour.
There is no ASP via Apache. ASP was only ever hosted on IIS and given the huge security implications of running custom binaries on IIS in a shared environment, it almost wasn't ever done.

I started doing ASP development before my web host suggested it was cheaper and easier to do PHP. They had both Linux and Windows shared hosting at the time.
The developer has every right to support or abandon whatever platforms they want.

But there’s some FUD here:

1. There is no review step. Notarization is an automated process that takes about an hour. It doesn’t require a substantive change to your build process. You just submit your build, get a notary receipt file back from Apple about an hour later, and “staple” it to your build using a single tool. It’s not burdensome.

2. The system requirements for preparing a build for notarizarion are pretty liberal if you look at actual hardware usage. Of course some machines fall off the bottom, but it’s not like they’re trying to drive revenue with this. It’s like a teardrop in the ocean.

3. All of this is even less burdensome on developers who follow any kind of process for testing. You would already have a capable machine being used for testing, and would already be seeing delay between your builds being prepared and your distributions going out. Apple’s part of notarization could happen while testing is in process, meaning zero delay. If this doesn’t apply to you, fine. But it probably means you weren’t treating the platform all that seriously in the first place.
This is why I bemoan the current form of identity politics because it allows an out. "I don't hate women, it's just disadvantageous to me to hire them," or, "I don't hate black people, I just won't rent to them because they statistically commit more crimes." And without an iota of malice in anyone's heart, relevant actors can reproduce the same exact disparities that perpetuate inequality. This is called systemic discrimination.

I know the example you're offering is a step removed from that ("I want to tune my ads to maximize ROI, but if a woman sends me a resume and is a good fit, I won't discriminate") but the problem with disparities is no individual actor is incentivized to buck the trend, which assists in perpetuating it. That's at least the logic why the government steps in and changes the incentives and why such intervention is warranted.

Sure, it's a common pattern and the right one in many scenarios. But especially for non-cloud deployments it's very common to store session data in process memory or temp data to local disk, etc.
That’s a fundamentally different platform I think.

Are you asking why it's bad to discriminate against women, foreigners, and older people in hiring?
Our daughter had serious skin issues for years, and my wife and I shared numerous photographs of her.

The idea of a pack of ... auditing my personal messages and photos to my wife is abhorrent.

What we need is actual police doing actual police work, and actually judges putting actual pedophiles away for life. Not stalking normal people.

But, I guess cowardice is alive and well - normals don’t shoot cops and judges in the face, so they’re easy targets to satisfy the “just do something” vote.

I’m not saying you’re wrong. But winedb gives garbage status to the latest, the installer on playonlinux is unverified and posted by a banned account. I have found no testimonial that the latest works now other than yours.

So here’s the thing. Even if you’re right (and not confusing some older version as the latest.. that often happens in these discussions... what do you think is the latest version of adobe CC?), this is a terrible support story and not something that most pros that rely on adobe tools want to mess around with.

One of the winedb reviews says this:

“adjusting parameters in some effects such as lens blur makes program unusable (must kill app)”

Wonderful.
I've scripted this for work, but it does have to run on a mac (for me a late 2013 Macbook pro), which would make it difficult to do in the cloud.

There is a utility (written in Java) that you run through "xcrun" that can upload, check status, fetch and "staple" the result. It usually turns around within 15 minutes for me, but I haven't measured the exact time. (I'm just polling every five minutes.) Check the "log" file, because it can successfully notarize and then report in the log that your signatures are all screwed up.

Details here if anyone needs to do this:

John Lee is one of my favorite narrators and his reading of the Count of Monte Cristo is wonderful (even at 47 hours).

Ron Chernow’s biographies of Grant, Hamilton, and Washington.

Candice Millard‘s “Hero’s of the Empire” (about Winston Churchill) and “River of Doubt” (Theodore Roosevelt) are both interesting looks at important historical figures in situations we don’t often prescribe to them. Her first book “Destiny of the Republic” (James Garfield) is also good but the other two are superior.

“David and Goliath” by Malcolm Gladwell.
...And another thing!

Let's say a lot of people in software agree with you. I think they're wrong, but that doesn't matter. Here's the thing: When we analyze hiring, we often act like it's some kind of two-person game:

You place ads, interview people, select the best person, make them an offer, and boom, you're done.

But it isn't a two-person game. It's a market, and you're actually competing with all the other hiring companies, just as the candidate is competing with all the other people you interview.

Under the circumstances, I suggest you crack open a copy of "Moneyball." The worst ROI is when you overpay for people who aren't actually great performers, but everyone is pattern-matching, and these people have the superficial attributes of a great hire.

Those people get more offers than good performers that don't have the right gender or didn't go to the right school or whatever. And it's expensive and hard to hire them.

Meanwhile, there's this woman over here, and that trans person over there, and that self-taught person over there, and so on, and so forth, and they are all cheap to hire because you have less competition for them.

Not only that, but if everyone is using hacks to save money by not advertising to them, it's easer to reach them. It costs less to advertise to them, and the qualified ones are more likely to click on your ads.

If you buy my Moneyball analogy, the highest ROI goes to those who can ferret out signals of hireability that are contrary to what the "market" uses.

You might still not want to use FB to reach qualified women, maybe it sucks for that, but you ought to ask, "How can I find those qualified women, everyone else's discrimination is my opportunity."

In which case, if you don't like the ROI on using FB to reach women, instead of thinking that advertising to women sucks, you should be brainstorming how to effectively advertise to women.

If you figure it out while everyone else ignores women, you win.
The simple question is: Does everyone have an equal opportunity to this position or not? If you can't even see the ads then the answer is no, and so it's a violation.

If there were different ads for different groups but everyone still had the opportunity to see, apply and acquire the position then it's fair game.

Perhaps Facebook could improve job ads to allow for more specific targeting but always have a fallback ad in that campaign for any non-targeted users. This would help employers without excluding anyone.
I remember back in Columbia GSAPP during Tschumi's reign I (unfortunately) had a studio with Stan Allen. The theme was "Brownian Motion" I kid you not, and he started us off with "consider a career in minor architecture" and how we really should be focusing on the "skin condition". Right around the corner, a young hot wunderkind from Princeton's studio was doing 'organic' forms that basically amounted to 'turd' forms.

I came to architecture from Electrical Engineering. It was shocking to discover that, from a theoretical basis, there was no there there in Architecture. As far as I can tell, it is still a field caught in an identity crisis. CAD and advances in materials and structural engineering has definitely helped carry it along but fundamentally, Architecture is struggling to establish a sound theoretical foundation (beyond sound bites) to guide the design of buildings. At least Alexander, et al. put forth an actionable bottom-up program for design.
Saying he earned $120 MM a year when really that was a payout after multiple years of hitting agreed upon milestones - that's sort of like saying everybody makes millions a year at a company that just IPOed. He obviously made a lot of money, but you're exaggerating by almost an order of magnitude.

I think when Elon said "there will be a single seam weld" (which I also remember), he meant this in comparison to the current welds.

It's been 12 hours and I only skimmed the video, so I might be misremembering what he said. My understanding was this: Mk1 is welded from plates so at each layer of the stack you have n-1 welds holding the n plates together. My understanding of his comment was that the steel coils will wrap around the major axis of the rocket but instead of each layer containing n-1 welds to join n plates, there will just be one weld in each layer to join the beginning and end of that coil. That would still leave you with welds joining the different layers of coils but only one "seam" weld along the rocket's major axis.
Also, this implementation might be helpful.

I totally agree - I think the biggest problem with the article is that it frames this as a “paradox.” Based on theory and what’s been observed, there is no paradox - it’s a simple fact that the common weight-health paradigm is a myth.

Yeah, I just found the post you are referring to [1] and wow it's depressing. At the age of 30 the first real vacation he's ever had is an unpaid 10 week vacation where he had to be prepared to quit-or-else AND pay his own health insurance costs for the gap, and paying to stay on the company health care plan evokes a "woohoo". This is where we've come to folks.

I've worked for a company with a remote development office in Poland, and they get a mandatory 4 weeks plus another 3 weeks or so of paid holidays and a +1 week after 10 years of working (anywhere, including grad school)... so by the time you're in your 30's that's 8 weeks. Every year! And you know what, those guys worked really hard and were plenty productive and we in the US never noticed it because they managed it just fine. [2]

And this is a guy at a presumably relatively well compensated and respected engineering position. Everyone else has it even worse! We're doing great folks, everyone just keep doing what you're doing, woohoo!

> It’s not burdensome

As defined by who?

1. Submit build
2. Wait an hour
3. Retrieve notary receipt
4. Staple to correct build
5. Upload build

Sure sounds more burdensome to me than:

1. Upload build

Edit: Lol, people arguing with reality. It may or may not be a good thing, but arguing that it doesn’t add any burden to the developer seems hard to me.

>Someone lacking relevant market skills or education etc can go out and fix that.

Not really, if they lack economic resources, have dependents, have low IQ, low grit, or lots of other reasons.

Ultimately it comes down to what parts of a person you think they are 'responsible for' and what parts they aren't. You're saying that someone being a certain skin color isn't something they should lose opportunities for, but it's okay if they do so for being too dumb to complete and advanced education, even if they were born that way.

My point isn't that you're right or wrong about either of these, but that if you really dig into this you'll find that any such narrative supporting an egalitarian notion that 'people ought to be equal' collapses with a few simple questions about genetics, free will, parenting, intelligence, and other such topics. Nobody gets an equal shot at anything.

Drones that crash through a window and set the place on fire - I don't know what we'll do about that one.

There are various window films that can do an excellent job of making it quite hard to break a window. But they're currently quite expensive. E.g,: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/home-window-solutions-us/ (sorry for previous bad link, 3M website bozos make it hard to get a sane URL)

I live in a "stick house" and it would be quite easy to set it on fire from the outside. Cedar siding, shrubs near the walls, etc. No need to crash through a window.

Edit: I forgot to mention a roof made of "kindling". It wore out and I replaced it with a composition roof, but in Oregon it's trendy to have a "shake" roof. If you've ever examined a shake you will know it's just a very dry piece of wood (at least in summer, in winter it's very wet).

Fortunately we don't live in such a dystopian world ... yet, at least not in most parts of the USA.
> The simple question is: Does everyone have an equal opportunity to this position or not? If you can't even see the ads then the answer is no, and so it's a violation.

Do these cases involve advertising positions that are not listed elsewhere? Because obviously no company can afford to reach everyone who might be interested in a position. I would agree that selective advertising would be much more of a problem if the positions are not listed on employers' websites.
Common Mistakes Made by New Freelance Writers
> For example, people routinely mispronounce the name of the President of China. (It’s closer to Shi than Zi.) Why? Because English has a strong preference for retaining native spellings even when the other language has a completely incompatible set of pronunciation rules.

This is objecting to the .01%--I find it hard to take seriously.

English has the really good feature that there is a phonic correspondence between spelling and pronunciation. It's not always one-to-one, and it's sometimes really weird, but it's generally there.

So, if someone sees Xi Jinping in writing, the utterance out of their mouth will be close enough for me to know what they are talking about.

However, even when someone completely botches the spelling of a word, there is almost always enough logic behind the error for the person looking at it figure out the actual word meant. That's a really nice feature in a language. (For example--I have seen phlegm or subtle spelled in all manner of ways, but I generally could tell what was meant.).

By contrast, lots of the articles talking about Chinese highlight all the really common words that native speakers can't even cough up the kanji for because there is so little phonic correspondence.

Yes, banking is always mis-used as an example for transactions and ACID but in reality it's eventually consistent, often spanning hours, days, and sometimes weeks.

The real-world needs to account for laws, geographies, timezones, physical movement of goods and cash, risk management, etc. that is not modeled in a simplistic database class. I do wish they would pick a different domain to avoid this confusion.
Not sure what your point is, there are a lot of things that would reduce business costs but are illegal.
Yes, that's true. It seems to be illegal, so talking about ROI is really beside the point. And it's a pretty hypothetical situation. I'm just trying to think why the companies might have taken this approach apart from outright discrimination.
Nope, same guy. Scott Manley has a degree in astrophysics (I think) and worked as an astronomer for a while, then got a job coding at Apple. He's a smart guy
Oh, come on, that's not fair.

After I did a million lines in C (way back when), I still made mistakes (but fewer! still: not none!), but I had built better tooling and processes to help me find them earlier.

I was (as you say) attracted to Go, but with less accumulated tooling, the bugs take longer to find (that, and playing around with CSP, I guess, which is my own damn fault).

This article fails to address two key points that could significantly weaken its core arguments if answered. Those points and the questions that arise from each are:

1) Apple charges a flat rate of $100/year for notarization access. Steam and Mac App Store take 15-30%. What additional percentage of Mac sales (either subscription and/or one-time) is being spent on this annually by this developer?

$100/year & 100 units/year = $1.00/unit

$100/year & 1000 units/year = $0.10/unit

$100/year & 10000 units/year = $0.01/unit

EDIT: Steam indicates that this game has sold 0-20,000 units (max 168 concurrent players), between May 2015 and September 2019, so using a straight flatline average of the best-case scenario for sales, the cost to date per unit is:

$500/5y & 23000 units/5y = $0.22/unit

2) Notarization can be added to command-line build scripts and Makefiles and third-party processes, so that it is simple to ensure that builds are notarized as part of releases to Steam. What, if any, engineering obstacles in the developer’s build process blocked this integration?

I'm not sure if there is a perfect answer there. It might be best to scope it down to a certain medium and channel and say that all users on that channel have the ability to either see the ad or browse a directory of all listings.

If Facebook also had a jobs board that anyone can search and find ads where employers aren't paying for impressions then I think that would offset a targeted campaign to select groups.
