There is, but it's also served by a saturated market full of startups that are far more innovative than IBM. And much more inexpensive.

My experience of IBM's software products is that they are slightly above average, comprehensively documented, but completely out of touch with market pricing. I wouldn't say they are affordable even for fairly large enterprises -- the bang for buck is extremely poor.

IBM is the choice for large, price-insensitive, risk-averse companies and bureaucracies. You can almost always do better than IBM.
> In many countries in Europe you can't use cash for large sums. We generally use bank transfers to buy cars.

Some, like Sweden and Italy, going to extremes to phase cash out of existence, the latter making 'large' cash transaction punishable by jail/fine.

I lived in EU during the financial crisis, and when cash got scarce prompting places in Greece to issue their own local currency [1] to do basic transactions (kids in school were passing out due to a lack of food, hospitals were running out of medicine and basic supplies in general) many were confident you would see something like this: Germany hoarding cash while the PIIGS were left to their own devices.

Its sad, the problems paper fiat currencies beget: be they the promises of utilitarianism or the illusions of prosperity its one I wish we can finally overcome soon.

> I’m a climate change skeptic almost entirely because I don’t trust models.

We don't need any climate models to know that Earth is warming. We can tell that just from what we know of: how electromagnetic radiation works, the basic thermodynamics of gases, determining isotope ratios of the carbon making up a sample of CO2, how much solar energy falls on the Earth, the mechanisms by which energy can leave the Earth, the amount of energy leaving Earth as measured by satellites.

That's enough to allow verifying that:

(1) a net heating of the Earth taking place,

(2) this is mostly caused by humans (mostly be emission of greenhouse gases from fossil fuels) (and yes, we can tell the difference because emissions from burning fossil fuels have a different carbon isotope ratio than other sources), and

(3) it is getting more extreme.

All you need climate models for is to try to figure out where the extra heat will end up and what it will do there.

Can you explain in more detail? captcha.nsa.goving for more information didn't return anything.
no, a noisy measure around a globally increasing trend line went down.

I believe that the noisy measure goes up, on average, because it is (noisily) measuring a warming climate. I'll make that bet every year, and I will come out ahead...

using the trend line, you could set odds at which the betting on a colder 2021 would be the correct bet - but it isn't 50/50, which it would be if the process were random noise.

as a professional poker player I'm not surprised by this argument, but I am saddened.

Sudo features exist for a reason. People use them. If you delete random features that you don't happen to use, the people who use sudo today won't switch to your new tool. It doesn't matter that in your opinion those missing features are unnecessary. You don't get to make the call.

If your goal is to eliminate unsafe C code from critical paths, you want a drop-in sudo replacement. If your goal is to just be opinionated, sure, make a non-sudo thing with a selection of features you personally consider important --- but don't be surprised if people keep using sudo.

Isn't that "forcing a developer to handle error conditions" only true of Java-style checked exceptions, though? I'm not aware of any non-JVM languages taking that route, even the very Java-clone-y C#, and thought it was widely believed to have been a mistake.

In the first-approximation analysis of stock buybacks, they keep the share price the same but reduce the market cap of the company by however much was bought. This is known and intended. If $55B of their $95B drop in market cap is simply by returning cash to the investors, that isn't such a bad thing.

> It's actually pretty hard to write an elegant API for C strings and have it perform well and be safe. Either you do a lot of copying, or you pass pointers around and risk use-after-free.

Reference-counted heap-allocated strings are fine in practice for almost all programs, and it's easy to write an API that implements this model.
> As the market data shows, most customers value a very low price over anything else. So the market delivers.

Right, and it delivers that by pushing costs onto the greater proportion of people who are not involved. That is neither ethical nor sustainable -- it's more like a kind of theft.

What you are citing is a clear example of how the "free market" can fail to operate in the best interests of society.
Why is that demoralizing? Even if you're a mediocre programmer, you're miles ahead of the industry standard. It's a good time to earn money.

The Netherlands has a network for the emergency services that is entirely separated from the normal phone network ("Noodnet"). It has a limited service and bandwidth and normally has no interconnection with the normal phone network (so is not intended or usable for emergency calls from the public), but is designed to be very resilient. I don't think it is used when the normal phone network is still functioning. I have no idea how they test it; it must all be rather expensive.
Worse yet, if you just disable scripts entirely the page renders beautifully and you can click on the images to expand them and actually read the tiny text.

Fair point. However it's sad to think that as a species we're so petty and narrow-minded that we need a backup in case we fuck this planet up ourselves. Maybe I'm too harsh, but I almost feel that we don't even deserve a backup if we can't avoid a nuclear holocaust or environmental collapse here on Earth.

Implementing consistent messaging with at-least-once delivery
The code example is not convincing at all. Obviously a single if is much cleaner than a single try/catch block but that is not the comparison. The if needs to be replicated N times for every N things that could fail and that are calling each other in a potentially deep call hierarchy. The try/catch block only needs to occur once at a level that is above all of the N things that might fail.

Latacora | Chicago | Full Time | Remote (USA) | Security Engineer

If working on security at a startup is appealing, here's an opportunity to work with a whole group of startups --- in health care, in financial services, in hardware, in transportation, in AI, and even in sports analytics. You'll be a member of a growing security team with multiple practice areas, working with security veterans, talented developers just getting their start in security, and with the engineering teams of a couple dozen startups. We're consultants, in a sense, but unlike any other consulting firm I'm aware of.

Latacora builds security teams for startups. We work exclusively with startups and exclusively over the long term; our clients stick with us for a year or so, during which our whole team works full time on appsec, cloud security and secops, and corpsec. Once we've built out a practice, we help our clients recruit someone full time to keep it running, and transition ourselves out.

This February Latacora is hiring corpsec engineers. Corpsec is an interesting mix of vulnerability research and security operations. It's responsible for endpoint fleet security --- the protection of everyone's laptops and phones --- as well as SSO and email and other company services. Corpsec's portfolio also includes "vendorsec", which answers the questions "is it safe to install this program or use this service", and involves short, targeted vulnerability assessments. Corpsec is the team at Latacora most likely to be doing things in Frida at any point in time.

We try to be super easy to talk to, we hire almost resume-blind and without subjective interviews, and will give you more information than you can retain about what we do and how we hire before you have to answer any questions. I like us! Mail careers@latacora.com to find out more.

International Brain Laboratory | Software engineer, IT Support Officer | New York, Lisbon, or London | Full-time | https://www.internationalbrainlab.com/opportunities#jobs

The International Brain Laboratory has openings for postdoctoral fellows and scientific staff who will play key roles in a new large-scale international collaboration in brain research.

The IBL combines the efforts of approximately 50 scientists in 20 laboratories toward understanding the brain-wide basis of a complex behavior.

The project will involve recording the activity of millions of neurons in the working brain and building mathematical models of the resulting data. The data sets this project will produce are vast and complex, including physiological recordings, behavioural measurements, and video, all of which must be standardized into common formats, integrated into a single database, and subjected to quality control. Core staff positions will support the both experimental and theoretical work through the entire data life cycle, including acquisition, analysis, modeling and dissemination.

Remuneration will be competitive and commensurate with experience. There is considerable flexibility in base location within the U.S. and Europe.

My resume is out of date, my passion project since leaving my job in NY has been creating a new kind of programming language to make 'looking inside the black box' more appealing / less intimidating for beginner coders and experts alike. I have a lot of experience teaching all ages programming, mostly LEGO Mindstorms and Arduino "C++" but data flow languages like Pure-Data and Rhino-Grasshopper too. My approach is a message-passing actor-network performing self-modifying graph reduction. It lets you watch the execution of the program one step at a time, especially useful for highly concurrent and asynchronous software. A landing page for the project exists at https://lookalive.software, with a MVP in the next couple of months.

Looking for a team I can learn from, a lot of my style is self-taught and that's not always the most useful style for getting paid (See: The Curse of Lisp, except Javascript is my Lisp! ) But if I can get work teaching new programmers the basics that's a lot of fun for me too.
