Cool, thank you both. I think WebRTC or Jitsi are closest to what I would be looking for, as I want to keep it open source, but I appreciate the Zoom and other integrations for how they could be useful to business.

You guys might consider Mumble/Murmur integration, I think it could be a great addition, as it was my favorite voice app before Discord took over everything (still is).
To my understanding, a Makefile is designed for single commands and not for scripts.
Depending on what the cause is it might be different. If someone makes a reasonable mistake, like pushes something to production that they should not, then you could argue that there are not enough checks and it is not something you should get fired for. You should change the process.

If someone deliberately goes around those checks to push something anyway then it could be a fire-able offense.
I think one can both be excited about Rust and acknowledge that for most projects C is still the way to go.

The libraries, communities, compilers, vendor support, ...etc. is much more mature on the C side of things and will remain that way for a while.

At the same time, Rust is getting to the point where early adopters can start using it for their projects. Those are the people who will make Rust a full class option in the future.
This is the big thing that IRC would need to have to make it on parity with Slack. A bit more involved than a trivial change.
Why are these older engineers not training themselves already, and who should be training them? If people in one of the highest demand and best paid professions out there cannot take some time to keep their skills up to date, why does it fall to some nebulous "we" to apply re-training to them?

If there's some geopolitical reason that it's a good idea for the government or someone to offer them free training programs, I'm all for it, but I'm not understanding the moral argument.
wow, this is amazing! thanks!

The problem is: the Supreme Court has ruled arbitration agreements legal.
It wouldn't be the government but the CCP. The CCP pretty much has ultimate authority on everything, so there's probably some close ties between people in Bitmain and people in the CCP that don't exist with MicroBT. Also a lot of it is based around favors more generally not just money.

Now I'm wondering what its worst case crash behavior is like.
I had a nightmare once, where I was sitting at a desk in a small room coding. Somebody asked me what I was doing.

"I'm writing Cobol Printer Drivers. Its the last programming job in the world, because they've got machines to write everything else".

A person walked in the door with a box, and set it on my desk.

"What's that?"

"Its a device to write Cobol Printer Drivers."

I got up, walked to the door and opened it. Outside was nothing -just a grey fog.

Then I woke up sweating.
This doesn't hold up to scrutiny, since the opposite situation would also occur. People are also nearly 3 times as like for all of your female bosses to have been good, and exclusively had bad male bosses.

If fact, if 10% of bosses are awful then there will be far more people who have exclusively had good female bosses than bad female bosses.
Having said that, AWS also have a long track record of reversing charges where a dev fucked up and ran up a huge bill accidentally.

I am _extremely_ dubious you'd ever even get a person on the phone to talk to at Google if your CI/CD pipeline or platform automation had a bug that resulted in thousands of dollars of charges racking up over a weekend. I know people who've done that on AWS and had the entire bill waived, and then had AWS technical people call and help them debug and fix the broken (non Amazon) systems.

I'm not sure there's a company on the planet with a worse reputation amongst devs for "customer service" than Google. Pretty sure they're not going to be winning any developer mindshare on _that_.

If your 5-6 figure ad buying team get a say in which platform you deploy on, maybe _their_ experience with Google's legendary "customer support" is different. Buy the only known avenue for developers to get problems with Google accounts looked into by a human being is pretty much to make as much noise on Twitter/HackerNews as you can and hope some random Googler steps in to help...

Hey HN! I'm really happy to be sharing this with you all today. I've been working on React projects for about 4 years now and I've always found that SVGs (whether icons or full illustrations) are best represented in my projects as individual React components. Some of the benefits are that:

- It's easier to control your SVGs with clearly defined props

- You can bake in accessibility into your illustrations

- Unlike to icon fonts which load the entire font, you can leverage modern module loading practices to only load the SVGs you need (i.e.: import HackerNewsIcon from '...')

- Unlike in-lining SVGs, the resource can be cached, bundled, and re-used multiple times without duplicating the contents.

- This tool automatically strips away `id`s so you don't have id collisions.

- Since it's a component, you can modify it to, for example, show a different SVG under a different locale if the English design doesn't translate well.

This has helped our little design system team off-load the incoming requests to add new icons back out to the requesting teams. And if an icon doesn't meet the requirements of our system, consumers can continue to use them in their own projects while still being aligned on props and a11y.

Hope you all find this useful too!
That was my thought as well. I went to Akihabara in 1997 and it was still glorious. Evidently that spirit has now moved to Shenzhen.
This example is a bit of an outlier since it's so small, but a larger program is going to need proportionally smaller amounts of unsafe code. Remember, just because it's marked unsafe, doesn't mean it's not rust. It's just that for doing low level micro-controller type things, you're explicitly addressing parts of RAM (or memory mapped I/O), and that means creating your own pointer.

> drusepth's relatives don't own drusepth's DNA.

This doesn't preclude drusepth from using their property in an assholish way.

>This would be similar to arguing that if I had an identical twin, I need my twin's consent to donate a photo of myself to a facial recognition library.

No, it'd just mean that you're an asshole if you do.

>But more generally, the arguments being raised here regarding risk of abuse of the data are predicated on tyrannical or illegal activities occurring. Instead of denying ourselves the benefits of cures derived from data such as this, why can we not build a society where the data is not abused?

Time scale. Societies come and go. To the extent that we don't have tyrannical ones they're not exactly long lived. Once you've given the data and power to the non-tyrannical government, you're screwed if tyranny ever swings around again. That's a huge gamble to make off of nothing given the history of all world governments. Seems far more likely they'll all be tyrannical again at some point than never again ever.

>I mean, what other technologies should we deny ourselves?

All of them. Technology is a perversion of our innate condition. A result of mate signalling gone off the rails.

>A tyrant can use tanks and troop transports to wage war on their citizens. Should we tear up the roads lest they be abused by tyranny?

Of course!

DNA is where technology renders the idea of privacy and ownership moot... If a few people related to me share their data 23andMe has more than enough to convict me of a crime or predict my health to some degree. My DNA is not just mine, but it's really shared property. We really have few social conventions or intuitions to cover this situation (I think).

It is because this has nothing to do with US security. It is a continuation of the propaganda started in the 1980s-1990s of cheap labor in the sciences.

Actually, training and allowing these people to work (in potentially very advanced technologies) is ANTI-security.

But it is monetarily beneficial for the shareholders of companies who will benefit from the research conducted by "cheap but smart Asians". Fundamentally, this article should be considered treasonous because it is anything but pro-American.

We have a massive issue in this country of certain elites feeling entirely negated from any responsibility towards their fellow citizens.

Yes, Linux does have ELF signing. I'm guessing you are speaking more generally about ensuring that "only signed code is allowed to execute", rather than just "making sure ELF binaries are signed" based on the remaining context of your comment.

Similar to Windows, making sure that exe files are signed isn't enough (PowerShell, drivers, kernel, firmware, etc) -- there's PowerShell scripts, etc, and "block execution of unsigned code" or even "block privileged execution of unsigned code".

Assuming that "signed code execution", as I frequently discover when I go looking for "how to do Foo Linux", there's more than one[0] way, depending on what the need/device/system is. Windows is in a lot of places you don't expect -- ATMs, IoT devices, etc -- Linux is ... it'd be easier to come up with a list of device types that haven't had a Linux kernel running on them. LWN had a write up in 2017 -- I know I've read more current, but theirs was a good summary and answers your question. The Linux Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA)[2] is a more complete approach. Those are the more "general-use options" that I was aware of.

My CT cost $180 in the US because i bothered to shop around.. I see these articles all the time cherry-picking The only reason healthcare in the US is high is government enforcing monopolies, Giving them more power over healthcare is foolish. If you are the least bit smart you call around, that is the nature of a market.
This reminds me of Google+. I remember one year where they got very serious about G+, tied bonuses to the growth, and otherwise tried to take on Facebook. G+ is shuttered now, but at least I have a cool green check mark next to my name I'm my YouTube comments... :-)
Hi @brian_cloutier,

A couple of things that come to mind (although I should probably flesh out a section on the README for this):

* Auto-Generated Help From comments - There are patterns for adding a 'help' target in make that generates light documentation for the targets - I maintain a gist for such a pattern in a different github account.

* Per-Command Shell - bash, python, ruby, you decide !

* Per-Command Options/flags - With documentation!

* Positional Arguments - By default, make treats all non-variable arguments as targets, so you can't say "make action argument"

* Commands Executed in One Sub-Shell - By default make executes each line of a recipe in a separate sub-shell, requiring you to use '\' to link multiple lines into a single recipe.

No doubt make is useful for this, hence why all my dev friends use it, but make was not designed to manage non-build-related targets, and has some cracks in it with regards to that use case.

I think (hope) run can prove useful as a dedicated tool for this use case.

Thanks for the question - I hope that helps - Please let me know if you have any other comments or questions.

While there are plenty of problems with Silicon Valley, I'm not sure that we should lay slow growth and widening inequality in the US at tech's doorstep. For one, the timelines don't even align: inequality has been growing (and growth slowing) since the 70s and 80s, not only in the United States but also in most other developed countries. Neither is the author particularly well-versed on the economics of inequality - during much of the 19th century (i.e., the Industrial Revolution), inequality continued to increase even though there was an upturn in certain indicators such as real wage growth and health outcomes. The author even seems to admit this at one point, so at the end of the day the piece simply boils down to "Tech is bad, so we should figure out a higher-growth industry to make bets on."
No we do not. The government has screwed the system up enough, giving this government even more control is a terrible idea. Just stop enforcing monopolies, Force providers to have a clear pricing structure and let market forces deal with it.

Same! I was the product lead on Arbor Networks DOS product. How exactly is it that you think that a heavily sampled collection of IP addresses is equivalent to the exact names you type into a URL bar?

The rest of your argument is just motte-and-bailey message board stuff. You started out saying that running your own local recurser is privacy-enhancing (it's the opposite) and that ISPs can see your DNS queries when you run DoH (they can't) and retreated to a position of "other things leak". That's true, other things do leak! We'll fix them too; we'll have ESNI soon enough, for instance. Make a coherent argument, please.
In theory, they should have written to MS-DOS API, and then if BIOS video is slow, Microsoft (or OEMs) could have changed the MS-DOS console device driver to use direct hardware access. The problem was, everyone just went straight to the hardware so there was little impetus on anyone to write a faster console device driver for MS-DOS.

When my health is on the line, I do not want to do anything like shopping around. I want the hospital I'm currently at to do the thing for a reasonable rate. Preferably the same rate as every other hospital in the country charges for the same scan.
Last time I checked, you had to have a very specific server/client combo for very basic features like mobile app, offline messages, and multi-device message history. Grabbing a random server or client may result in some (or all) features missing.

That’s why we recommended Slack for the next workplace. No chance to get anything wrong, and no need for backups either.

Oh you'd be surprised how many people at the $250k income level have been cruising along barely net worth neutral in spending and took out some kind of personal loan or used their credit card for that $10k "new roof" blip or impulsively traded in a car that was a few k upside down, and they started to get further and further underwater. At some point the credit runs out and the next $10k blip means they are literally homeless within a few months.

I think the difference is that people like that have a MUCH better safety net in the form of family and friends who can easily provide $5-10k handouts to get a family out of a jam. (Then of course you have the people that are already abusing THAT source of funds. Even though they are making $250k).

You would be AMAZED at how close to the edge people live at every income level. It's like a part of human nature to do it, regardless of whether one is a millionaire or a pauper.
There are definitely a lot. If you haven't experienced this personally then you must live in a heavily liberal area.
Thanks, guys. I should have been clearer. It was on that order in committed spend[0]. The business itself is valued in the billions.

I could use some education on how GUIs actually rolled out to real customers. I was born in 1982, so I am familiar with computers of the era, but I was consistently about 5 years behind the times, being from a very small town and not very well off family. FYI, my first computer was a Commodore 64/128.

This article has more than a faint whiff of "new hotness" vs "old crap". They have rushed to the new thing and hate the old thing. Like rushing from Traditional Relational DBs to NoSQL. Whenever you get a new tool, that doesn't always make the old tool useless.

I think this article also came well before the proliferation of functionality. There are hundreds of functions in a simple text editor nowadays. I can't imagine accessing them all via keyboard alone, but I also can't imagine losing my keyboard shortcuts while seriously editing text.

Programs also added context menus, and more recently search capability for commands and settings.

I think we've finally learned some lessons about not throwing old tools away, but I think we need to keep learning that lesson as well.
Rust can interoperate with C libraries, it's a pretty substantial part of its value proposition. At the same time, it's true that C has way better compiler support for weird embedded targets, and it's also a comparatively mature language that's not going to change much over the years, with a vendor-independent standard definition. For some projects, these things might be important.
>It took 3 hours of my time. About 3 hours of medical assistant time and about an hour of two different doctors time to get this simple 5 minute CT approved. This is all on top of the time of admins at the insurance company.

At this rate, most of the costs are human wages, not the medical equipment and its operating cost.

If we can cut all these unnecessary middle men whose job is just confirm/deny the requests, the cost will be a lot cheaper. That's UK.

Why the insurance companies has a privilege to deny a medical test when fully-qualified doctor said it's necessary in the first place?

If the government regulation set the standard medical procedures and its price, insurance companies has no privilege to deny the requests, only the fully-qualified doctor decide the treatments, it can also cut some costs and more importantly, it's fair. That's Japan.
