For burglary it could also just be fear and risk of violence. If someone is willing to forcefully break into a house, they are probably willing to harm the owner if they happen to be home. A better example would be to compare white collar crime to shoplifting as neither of those crimes has the same undertones of violence to them.

Full disclosure: I am the author of the Wikipedia essay "Wikipedia has cancer". See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_C...

Your reference to boys town missed the point. Boys town didn't run out of orphans to spend money on. They simply failed to spend a large amount of it on orphans.

A better charity to compare with Wikipedia would be the the Washington Monument Restoration Project.

See https://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/wash/dc72.htm

Once the Washington Monument is completely restored you can't spend any more money restoring the Washington Monument. If donations keep coming in, you shouldn't spend them on giving executives of the charity free ski vacations (yes, the WMF actually did that) You should instead build up an endowment that is eventually big enough that the interest covers all Washington Monument maintenance forever. Then and only then should you tell donors "look, we don't need any more money for restoring the Washington Monument. If you give us a donation we will use it for other things, starting with restoring the Lincoln Memorial".

They missed that boat because of a lack of vision. They lacked viaion because of their leadership. Nadella drove through some big changes in short timespan and demonstrated a keen sense of what was important for MS. E.g. applying embrace and extend to OSS is a classic MS play that neither Ballmer nor Gates was prepared to make happen long after it was obvious it needed to be done. Enter Nadella and we now have vs code, ms github, and an actual ff-ing linux kernel that actually comes with windows 10 ready to run docker and a lot of other stuff. Also Azure is now runs mostly linux and things like sql server can run on linux. To top it off, MS is now once more exciting developers. I've not seen that level of excitement about anything they do since the mid nineties. That's leadership.

Google at the same time seems to struggle to convince developers that they need to drop their fancy languages for a bastardized and outdated thing called Dart that basically can only be explained as a ginormous not invented here syndrome combined with sunk cost fallacy. Just a minor example of things Google tries that have an obvious ticking clock in terms of them killing it in favor of something else. Also what's up with having 3 operating systems for devices and dragging out picking one out for half a decade? That's Conway's law in action right there.

This is spot-on. In a perfect world every major OS would have proper, granular mandatory access control enabled by default and applications would come with a profile specifying precisely which resources they require – at least regarding the more critical stuff like keys and cookies – with attempts to access anything else triggering an optional notification. Hopefully macOS will become more granular that way and Apple will continue pushing and improving what they began with Catalina.

Meanwhile, in a less than perfect world there's XFENCE [0], previously known as LittleFlocker. It's basically LittleSnitch for files. It was originally developed by Jonathan Zdziarski and later sold to F-Secure.

The challenge is to set it up in such a way that the level of interaction is kept at a minimum while still providing some level of protection.

I might write a detailed blog post / howto about it, but meanwhile here's the TL;DR if someone wants to try this blacklist/greylist approach:

1. Set an 'Allow any app – rwc' rule for /Users to override the default 'Watch – rw' rule there, which would otherwise result in a ton of popups. This does not override the more specific watch rules for some critical resources like loginitems, etc.

2. Add watch rules for additional critical resources, like ~/.gnupg, ~/.ssh, ~/bin, possible password manager directories, Firefox/Chrome directories to prevent cookie extraction, etc.

3. Temporarily add a watch rwc rule for ~/, thus overriding the Allow rule for /Users.

4. Run any network connected software with a potentially large attack surface like browsers, torrent clients, vpn clients, etc. and give them the required permissions to your home directory using the popups. Make sure to put them through their paces in terms of file system access to cover all possible use cases.

5. When they are usable without any more popups, remove the temporary watch rule and add 'Deny rwc to /Users' rules for each one, thus overriding the general /Allow rule we created above. An application-specific watch rule would be nice here instead, but sadly that doesn't seem to be possible – watch rules apply to all applications.

Execute steps 3–5 for any other untrusted software you might want to install/run.

When combined with LittleSnitch to catch possible attempts at data extraction, this reduces the risk of rogue applications extracting/damaging critical data and limits the potential damage of possible RCE vulnerabilities in network connected software. And it does this with a minimum of interaction – after the initial setup phase.

I've been running LittleFlocker/XFENCE for a couple of years now and the setup described above for maybe a year and it works like a charm, currently on Mojave, previously High Sierra, all the way back to Capitan, if memory serves.

A whitelist approach would of course be more secure, but that's way too stressful and distracting for me.

Not in maintainability. It is pretty hard to follow Scala when people use the flexibility too much. You have so many options that everyone develops their own flavor of overrides/overloads and style. This makes transferring skills between jobs or even just projects much harder as the same looking code line can mean several things.

Maybe the mouse escaped from a behavioral lab.
This was just discussed in similar posts recently. But there are flaws with this idea of contemporary discrimination specifically when looking at statistics of people who get "approved" for a job, college, etc.

Often times people advocate that those numbers should be equalized to some extent to be "fair", regardless of the context around which those approvals are made. If applicants are given preferential treatment to "balance" these "unfair" results, well you are in fact the very problem you're trying to solve. Jobs or college acceptance should be based on performance or capability, and the root of the problem actually really lies in opportunity. Often times minorities don't have access to equal opportunity, which results in sub-average performance. But that does not mean we should necessarily just "lower the bar" for a demographic because that's their average. Rather we should work to balance opportunity, and continue to make actions on capability and performance because that's what's truly fair.

We should not compromise people's lives when they've worked hard (regardless of race etc) just because they aren't of a specific demographic and fit the majority even though they performed better and would theoretically contribute more than worse counterparts.

Morgan Freeman actually talks about this in relation to race, and the blame lies on both of the sides of the spectrum that actively bring attention to and try to base decisions on race.
> “People don’t steal a phone to then go run and drop it off at their local recycling center,” he quips. And smartphone thefts have plummeted over the last several years, so stolen phones are becoming less of a problem in the first place.

And this excerpt links to this article: https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/DA-Gasc-n-says-SF-...

Which mentions:

> Smartphone robberies have plunged 50 percent in the past three years in San Francisco after they soared to epidemic heights and prompted a push for remote “kill switches” to become mandatory in the devices, District Attorney George Gascón announced Thursday.

So the article states that the Activation Lock isn't necessary because device thefts have plummeted. But they plummeted because of Activation Lock and similar features. That's circular reasoning if I ever saw it.
Google Plus also looks like a major milestone to me. I was initially a fanboy and dearly wanted to love it, but ultimately the UI design was too awful even for me. It must have been quite frustrating for the legion of developers involved to realize they were working on a doomed project.

The other major milestone in my mind was the leak of internal communications immediately after the Damore fiasco. I'm indifferent to his firing, which I consider to be uncontroversial by corporate standards. But reading Googlers (some in management) blocking and threatening each other, sometimes with firing or even industry blacklisting was shocking. I've never seen anything as unprofessional in any work context whatsoever, and it completely changed my view of Google.
I used to live and work in Madrid (for a non-tech job), although I have been a programmer for some years now.

While in Madrid I met a number of software engineers/IT professionals. I think Madrid is a decent spot for finding tech work.

If you're looking at Madrid, I think you'll be OK.

No.
90% of code bases that attempt modulability get it wrong. The idea is to be able to lift out functionality to be reused elsewhere. But what 90% of code bases do wrong is that they move code into modules, but you can not lift out those modes as they depend on all other modules. It might help if you use the words library instead of module. And public API instead of micro service.

Some folks (myself included) by default prefer to segment their trust by vendor, not by application, since it tends to be aligned anyway. For example, as per GP I'm fine with any Apple app having location access because by buying the phone I made an implicit decision to trust the company. In contrast, Facebook's stuff can fuck off into the black hole of mistrust they dug for themselves.

Finer granularity of trust (+ve or -ve) occurs only in exceptional cases.

As with so much in life (and in tech), the greatest process efficiency occurs when you standardise a common case and manage by exception.

> Maybe if IBM had something like UTF-8 as far back as the 1930s, AT&T needing backward compatibility with their teleprinters might not have been as big of a deal

I think this points to why the science fiction scenario really is a science fiction scenario -- I think decoding and interpreting UTF-8, using it to control, say, a teleprompter, is probably significantly enough more expensive than ASCII that it would have been a no go, too hard/expensive or entirely implausible to implement in a teleprompter using even 1960s digital technology.

> And if "boilerplate" is such a bad word, how did Ruby on Rails ever succeed. It's an environment literally built on boilerplate

This is not remotely true. "Don't Repeat Yourself" and "Convention Over Configuration" are the two core tenants of the Rails philosophy[1], both of which are intended to reduce boilerplate.

This is why you don't have to specify table names, foreign key names, controller endpoint paths, view file names, etc...

What OOP language doesn't suffer from this? Sure Java is infamous for it but C++, JS, PHP, Ruby, Python, etc. all suffer the same issue. The percentage might be a little less, but the amount of boilerplate is staggering in most modern OOP languages. When compared to something like Clojure, it's unbelievable. You can write entire apps in Clojure in the space that most other languages just deal with boilerplate.
Sounds like you haven't used a flagship Android device in a while, or are a big fan of over the top hyperbole. Maybe both.

Power of each pulse is tiny. 100GW times a attosecond is 10^11 * 10 ^ -18, or 0.1 microwatt. I wonder how much power they have to put in to get that.

"Since the scheme developed in this work is based solely on a passive modulator, our technique is easily scalable to MHz repetition rates, which are envisioned for the next generation of XFELs"

Now that's interesting. This is not only a soft X-ray generator, it's a soft X-ray beam generator. Could this be used as a light source for extreme ultraviolet (i.e. soft X-rays) wafer fabs?

The "light source" used now for the newer 7nm and down wafer fabs is a horrible kludge the size of a house. It works by zapping a falling droplet of molten tin with optical lasers to produce a plasma. This produces X-rays more or less omnidirectionally, and some tiny, tiny fraction of them eventually get bounced through the mask and onto the wafer. It's amazing that it's worth the trouble, and it makes fabs billion dollar projects.

All this energy and effort would be better spent on getting the current admin out.

For what it's worth, getting the Republicans out is almost certainly what this stunt is about. Maybe not consciously, but the groundwork of propaganda that led to villainization of ICE is certainly oriented around combating Trump and his policies, not actually disbanding ICE. Something like this is a way to help supporters feel engaged, passionate, and committed to the left's immigration policies (or at least attacking the right's), so that they will be more likely to vote and vote favorably in the next election.
