As the other commenters noted, the point of using it is for the plugins. Unfortunately, the ecosystem is just plain garbage.

Quite recent anecdote: I was making a sales pitch and showed my contact our website. Lo and behold, one of the plugins went rogue and just started loading adware onto the website and forcing popups and page redirects.

The plugin in question? Manages fucking blog posts. On WordPress. A plugin to take the blog posts and index them into a separate page. On a blog engine.
The court system isn't there to turn someone's mistake into your pay day. It's there to put things back to order. It's like when you have information and ask for a favor. You can ask for a favor, and you can publish the information. But the moment you link the two, it's unlawful blackmail.

This is very true, that's what always puts me off when "new exciting idea" about developers-related tool or service comes to my mind.
Additionally developers themselves are in their own niche so even if at first sight your brand new product seems to be innovative and non-existing on the market then it's very likely that it already exists in some form.

* this is a secret sharing service for masses, where you don't need to be authenticated at service to store and share secret

* anyone with access to service can upload a secret and share the token with people they wanna share it

* if accessed without an explicit retention parameter, the secret gets purged on first fetch

* if stored in cache mode, it self expires after a TTL if not accessed for that duration

* even service admin can't decipher a secret posted by any user
Cool product.

Regarding paid service you write:

> If you already like this service, I am sure you will love the next version! The next version will include paid features, but signing up now you will get two months of premium features once they are ready. By signing up you also accept I will send you occasional emails when new stuff happens, such as premium features. I will never sell nor give your email to anyone, and I will send 2 emails maximum per month.

Its unclear what I'm signing up for. Am I signing up for the service or newsletter? I would suggest you phrase it as notify me of version 2.0 or something similar.

How so? Could they not ML-detect the main body/content of the post and do a simple diff to previous "crawls" of the same content? You would think this gets picked up and somehow "resolved" because it's essentially a duplicate post or entry in their crawled pages DB.

> We see numerous problems with AWS services including but not limited to being unable to create new EC2 instances in any AZ.

How were you launching? Using EC2 directly (e.g. `aws ec2` cli or RunInstances API call - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_R... ), or using e.g. ASGs?

If you were launching directly with EC2, were you doing targeted launches (e.g. specifying Placement.AvailabilityZone for classic or SubnetId for VPC)?

In the case of an AZ failure, launches which don't specify an AvailabilityZone or SubnetId may be impacted for a few minutes, whereas launches which do specify them should still succeed.
Very similar to our progression, do you have a good way you manage your data dictionary and catalog?

I stand corrected.

Regardless of the specific framing of Thanksgiving, it seems like lots of cultures have some sort of seasonal harvest feast or festival (at least those originating in climates that support a seasonal planting/harvesting cycle).

I won't lie. Even though I'm a city dweller far removed from that agrarian lifestyle, I have zero problem with a nice yearly feast with friends and family. That aspect has a universal appeal I think.
I love this idea! I'm logging all changes to data, mostly just for testing/debugging, but I think a "history" endpoint would be handy for this. Not sure what kind of output it should have. Maybe multiple different types, ranging from a plain text dump (one line per change, sorted chronologically) to a JSON object? Not sure.
Yep, I've had that happen with a private outlook.com account last month. I literally just created the account and used it just once, to register for an Azure certification exam. I sent no e-mails from that account, I just checked it twice or thrice for incoming exam information emails, until suddenly I could not log in because of ToS violations. Stay classy, Microsoft!

Glad to hear that. Had an enterprise contract with you guys for years — mxGraph was an important part of our front-end stack.
Many things can change. On the one hand, deep fake text/video competes with (legacy) spammers, which means the profit from spam will soon drop to zero. OTOH, our trust in search algorithms will drop dramatically. People will need to start signing their public media and announcements, probably using one of the existing and robust publick blockchains. It's quite possible that google will become a lot more useless, and some curation will be needed for search results.

Even without the advent of deepfakes it was bound to happen as the internet keeps growing in content. Fake news is just the tip of a big iceberg
Exciting. Could we build a laser-pulsed Charge Wave computer?
It's not. Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction where light provides energy and that only involves gas, liquid and solid states of matter.

These guys are talking about entirely different states of matter.
Your average American probably is completely unaware of this (I know I was unaware) and would most likely not approve of such business practices (except for the few employed by FMC in PA).

Your average American also has no real voice or power in the US anymore. Blame massive private wealth interests and their interwoven government corruption.
Somewhat, by putting an intermediate step between the gas/diesel engine and the work the engine can be run more efficiently as well, instead of having to speed up and down at the whims of the driver it can run at a more steady and constant pace and the electric engine also allows regenerative brakes to be used which can recapture a lot of the energy lost in a normal diving situation during braking.
Seems like stabot ( https://gitlab.com/juergens/stabbot ) is using that instance as some kind of intermediate store. So what ever is requested of it will get posted.
Amazon publishes all the underlying zone names for your account so it would be trivial for them to specify the exact availability zone.

I'm sorry but this unfortunately is not a secure solution and should not be treated as such.

Either you are able to transmit the link via a secure channel, then you are able to transmit the message via this channel in the first place.

Logging might be something that can be circumvented with this service, but this instantly raises a second question:
Why should users trust you versus any other service provider?

Please do not advertise this service as secure.
Thank you everyone for the responses! They were quite valuable. I think the best thing to move forward for me is to fix any issues on the old posts, then write new ones as updates to them. It's more content, temporally relevant, and there's no gaming or sense of gaming involved.

Thanks again!
Good choice :). We do still evolve the project as OS, https://github.com/jgraph/mxgraph, since it's the base of our stack.
I used to work at a lottery Corp here in Canada. Years ago when speaking with the compliance officer we discussed one of the local draws (the lottery itself is national).

The big "bingo machine" used has balls in it that are mixed then one falls out.

The balls were locked in a safe between uses. In a locked room. In a building with security and many cameras. Each door had a door swipe with each user having specific security clearance.

What I found amusing was the balls were cleaned and weighed (yes I made a joke) before every use.

That doesn't even get into the machine itself. I've worked on slot machines so I am sure the bingo machine thing would have security seals on all the EEPROMs. And the EEPROMs would be verified often if not before each draw.

Now imagine the rules and procedures of an underground lottery.

I am skeptical. Because I see this issue in my country too where opening yourself to liability is not an issue. Maybe one could argue that it is due to cultural influences from the US which are copied without the original context, but ... eh, I feel it is pretty weak.
small nitpick, but hydrogen + oxygen combustion isn't really non-polluting unless you can do it in a vacuum. at high temperatures, the fuel also reacts with nitrogen in the atmosphere, creating NOx.

None of these examples are hate speech.

There is a formal legal definition of hate speech in the countries where these laws apply and it would be nice if people arguing against those laws would accept that, instead of continuously conflating things that are not hate speech.
While true, parasitic drag is generally a significantly larger factor at airliner speeds.

Airbus A320 during Cruise: “The 7,900lbf of drag is composed of 4,700lbf of Parasitic drag or drag independent of lift and 3,200lbf of Induced drag or drag caused by lift.” https://leehamnews.com/2018/03/09/bjorns-corner-aircraft-dra...

On top of this slightly increasing passengers, their luggage, and a few extra seats has fairly minimal impact on aircraft weight. The aircraft’s maximum fuel/range is impacted, but that’s rarely an issue.
We use Segment for event tracking, Postgresql for transactional data and a number of spreadsheets and third-party integrations with Stitchdata. Since our data is relatively small, we use PG as a data-warehouse and heavily use DBT for ETL.
The people who are familiar with SQL just use DataGrip, for the UI we use our tool https://rakam.io.

Shameless plug: It's basically similar to Looker but it plays well with the product data and integration with Segment as well.

What sold Linux for me was trying Ubuntu on an old dusty laptop that had been sitting in my closet for a few years. It installed fast and ran fast and I got a good feeling for it in less than an hour. If the default windowing system was slow back and awkard, I would never have had no idea there was another windowing system because I'd have had no motivation to learn more.

Ok, just a note to everyone !
It is online service and your diagrams are stored in the "cloud" and you have zero control over it.
Please, do not post your company's secret in form of diagrams. Recently, we caught one of the contractors using Draw.io to make diagrams of brand new systems that we are designing(we are fortune 40 company). System is expensive, very sensitive.
> you're going to hit some bumps if you haul an old code out of the vault and try to fire it up on a new system.

Most package managers have lockfiles that allow for some degree of determinism. Of course if a library introduces breaking changes you're going to have to rewrite, but only when explicitly upgrading the dependency.
I have missed so much media over the past 20 years that I operate like this. I'm not concerned with whether music or games are new or not. Media that came out 5 or 15 years ago is just as new to me as something that came out this year, and there's a much larger selection.
This article is so full of itself. Classism? Come on. Processed means many of the ingredients have been chemically extracted, the ‘heme’ made by GMO yeast, none of the ingredients make it to the other side even remotely looking like they started. This is very different from “stuffing plants through a machine”, which would be absolutely fine.

I’ll take a mediocre-tasting lentil or black bean burger over this plant-based goo any day of the week.

Airborne particulates are absolutely not “out of sight/out of mind” for engineers designing commercial jet engines. That’s an absurd statement. It’s one of the top considerations for those engineers.

London Victoria rail station averages ~207k passengers per day. London Heathrow airport average ~211k. Doesn't feel that unfeasible.
Don't forget the whole reason the heavy lift ship was being used was because of badly designed bearings on this cruise ship's azimuth thrusters combined with the local drydock being out of commission because of two cranes collapsing on another cruise ship undergoing repairs at the time.

So in just this story we have a maintenance failure (bearings) and two critical failure (cranes) in physical engineering.

I learned about this back in the early 80's writing a transcendental runtime library (to be used on the F-16 fighter with Jovial). I was always afraid to read a story about some pilot in a dog fight launching a missile and having it go nuts and they were shot down because the code had issues.

> draw.io is a client-side, static web application. There is no user authenication or data storage concept in this repo. The online version stores data in mainstream cloud storage options, currently Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Github, Gitlab or Trello.

I love this about Draw.io. This is how I want to build my applications. I don't want to deal with storing any user data and rather let them handle it how they see fit.
Noone likes to be corrected without an explanation. That part is fine. But explaining takes time for the moderators as well as providing value to the user, and some users try to get past moderation by overwhelming the moderators. Spamming.
If there is just a change in date and no change in content it could. But if the content changed, Google may not directly be able to state if the content was useful or not.
And where did the user store the data?

Addtionally, you can deploy a local version via docker, or use the stand-alone desktop version, https://github.com/jgraph/drawio has the links.
Yeah, most forums I use to be active in were very transparent about why stuff was deleted while e.g. most sub-Reddits are not. I vastly preferred the transparency of forum moderators.
On the flip side, we use Google G Suite so the majority of our documents are stored with Google, and draw.io's cloud support seamlessly works with our G Suite drives.

Our G Suite administrators have plenty of control over the G Suite Google Drives that would be used with draw.io and our Google accounts.

The only bits of our data we don't trust with Google are PHI

What about Apple? Why did Apple let such an app through unless Apple was fine with it...
Yes - it's probably the case, because there is nice theory behind it (DFAs for lexing and grammars for parsing).

What I can really recommend (and me and others have recommended it already countless times) is TECS: The elements of computing systems (also know as "Nand2Tetris"). Although it also covers other parts like the hardware stuff it lets you implement

- an assembler
- a VM
- a compiler that compiles a simplified Java-like language to this VM

It takes a bottom-up approach, but if you go through all projects you get a really good view about the big picture. However as it does code generation via an intermediate VM language it doesn't really touch register architectures as a compilation target. Anyway I highly recommend that book.
> I can imagine that other, more "creative" positions can benefit from spontaneous interactions throughout the day and whatnot. But is that the case for programming, which is much more a deep, intellectual kind of work? Is it enough to outweigh the costs?

I'm not sure why you think that deep, intellectual work doesn't benefit from interaction with other people. There are two particular scenarios that come to mind in which personal interaction is a must.

First one: if/when I'm stuck in a particularly difficult problem, I can set a meeting with a coworker of mine who is an expert on the sub-problem I can't solve. For instance, I might have an algorithm that works but I need it to be orders of magnitude faster. In such a situation, nothing beats face to face and a whiteboard, as it makes the exchange much more fluid that it would be over Skype.

Second one: a casual "what you're working on?" with a colleague by the coffee machine turns into a 90min discussion on new ways to approach a specific problem - if you've seen this (NSFW) video from Silicon Valley Season 1 [1], this is exactly the type of environment that you only get in person.

Of course, that's not to say that developers don't need privacy - I think "a door that closes" is an invaluable resource for when you know exactly what you need to do and you'd like other people to leave you alone to do it.

I found this to be an interesting point:

>“We should also be aware how the forces of denial are exploiting the lifestyle change movement to get their supporters to argue with each other. It takes pressure off attempts to regulate the fossil fuel industry. This approach is a softer form of denial and in many ways it is more pernicious.”

...because yes, that's the conflict I can observe in Germany: the conversation is driven by social psychology, it's all about belonging, about peer confirmation. That's a dangerous path to be on, because professional politicians are playing this very game since democracy is a thing - you can't be pushed to tougher legislation if the conversation is all about individual responsibility. It's only natural for a political party to delegate-away the responsibility/change the tone of the conversation (unless the topic matches their core interests).
Postgres -> Metabase

I believe this is the best combination of cheap/powerful for early-stage startups. My very non-technical cofounder is able to use metabase's simple GUI interface to create graphs/insights (even joining and aggregating across tables!), and for anything complex I can step in a give a helper SQL query. We have around 10M records we aggregate around for daily insights.

Metabase can also be run as a pseudo-desktop/web application to save additional cash (we don't do this though).
No :)

We are revamping our management of Snowplow event structures presently to make them more semantic and easier to use.

For our core data marts, we rely on naming conventions for the LookML fields, good tool tips, hold monthly training sessions for new employees, weekly office hours with analysts, and do occasional “train the trainer” sessions to try and make sure there is at least one Looker power-user in each business team.

Sounds reasonable to me. Reddit is not and never was a democracy; at best it’s a benevolent dictatorship - just like every other social media platform.

It costs nothing to start a new subreddit if you want different rules. And if lots of Redditors agree with you, they’ll happily follow you.
