There are experiments also in terms of peer reviewed open access journals that work as arxiv overlays. In mathematics we have discrete analysis [1] and sigma [2] (at least) which are quite good. Some journals started moving to a fully free open access model, e.g. JEP [3], Documenta Mathematica [4], Acta Mathematica [5] and Annales IF [6] (again at least).

I agree with @xvilka that there is lots of room for innovation and exploration, but even in the more traditional setting there is some movement coming from the smaller realities. It seems to me that the big publisher monopoly, which at least in my field is completely unjustified, is the bigger obstacle.

That's the thing here. Knuth can easily juggle far more complexity in his head than the average programmer, and that's fine for software that only he has to maintain. But when something needs to be maintainable by average programmers, you need to write for them and avoid that complexity.

Most server side code is Java, quickly followed by PHP.

And of course next to JS, you have C#, Asp.Net, Ruby, Python, and Go.

I'd say that given that:

- a lot of people only know JS (like designers)

- JS has a monopoly on the front end and is the only language that can be used on the front and back

- JS has existed for as long as Java (C#, Ruby and Go are way younger)

- there are JS materials everywhere given the web popularity

- the web is the most popular plateform in the world

The fact, as a freelancer going from company to company, I see so little JS on the server compared to other languages tells a lot.
"if the russians hadn't made a deal with the nazis to steal poland"

And how exactly do you know this?

Maybe if the USSR hadn't bought the time and buffer space by this deal, the Germany would've taken the whole Poland and continued with the attack on the USSR?
Maybe the West would've been standing aside (like it did during the Munich Betrayal, like it did during the Phony War) and watching with satisfaction how Nazies are killing Communists?
And later watching how all Slavic and Jewish population of occupied territories gets exterminated?

Comparing Knuth's LP demo to a 6 line shell script is comparing apples to oranges. There's no language that's going to be able to do that job in as few lines as that shell script, but that doesn't mean all languages are useless. They're both interesting demonstrations, but it's a useless comparison.

My personal experience would point to knuth being in essence right on at least one point: The obsession with code reuse is truly unwise; re-editable code is much more important. That's not to say reuse doesn't have it's place; nor that modularity is of no value. Instead, in the name of reuse people almost invariably write code that's too complicated, with opaque yet leaky abstractions that cause the code to be much more brittle, harder to maintain, and often has unfortunate non-functional consequences like having unexpected and unpredictable performance or security gotchas that require one to understand too much of the internals anyhow.

Part of the problem is this almost hero-worshipping nature of underlying libs we rely on; and part of the problem is one of perception: even in today's reuse-fetishized culture, likely almost all code is of the non-reused kind; yet in any given program we see huge amounts of reused code imported from e.g. package managers - because those reused bits are often reused a lot.

We'd be much better at reuse if we were a little more sskeptical of it, and didn't assume that design rules that hold for code that's been packaged for reuse also hold for the more pedestrian but nevertheless very common code that is not currently being reused. We want strict, leak-free abstractions ideally covering both functional and non-functional aspects for the reusable bits; but where we cannot do that or cannot yet afford to, we want the opposite: better clearly transparent code than a mess of leaky abstractions.

By the same token we don't copy and paste code enough. Sometimes a good abstraction is elusive, yet a pattern is still recognizable and useful. We have language features and a culture surrounding directly reusable code, but no such habits for derivative code, even though that would be quite useful. Essentially: I'm perfectly happy to deal with people using some stackoverflow answer to write code, but as soon as people do, it's like we regress into the dark ages: there's no structured citation, no support for detecting updates, no "package manager" that tracks updates (for stackoverflow clearly doesn't do that), and no diff or whatever to show how you tweaked the code segment. So instead people all too often just throw future maintainers under the bus with some random code-golfed answer, or some "reused" library that is hardly much easier to use than the reimplementation, with much harder to spot gotchas and perf/security issues, and often an API that isn't actually convenient for your use case.

So yeah: software needs reusable components, but 99% of the code you write should be re-editable, not reusable; and 100% of the time you should aim for re-editability, and only ever grudgingly accept the need for reusability after multiple use-cases are found (not just 2 or 3!), and there is a leak-free abstraction possible, and you've considered things like perf and debuggability and security.
Why do I feel like a script kiddie?
Hello, I'm currently 22 years old and I'm prepping to go to an university to get a degree in computer engineering. I've studied IT (Networking, HTML, CSS, XML, SQL, PHP ) for 4 years and 1 year of cybersecurity (Done 1 pentest, forensic analysis, SIEM + IDS + Firewall configs) but whenever I'm in the internships and I am working on projects for my classes, I feel like it's all about following a few tutorials or docs online and that's about it.

It's particularly infuriating in the pentesting regard, I feel like I just use the tools given to me by Kali on a very surface level, but whenever I try to dig deeper into them to learn how to, for example, create a reverse shell based on a CVE, I get stuck on terminology I don't understand and/or can't find info about, and it's hard to do research on.

It's really tough finding motivation to find out more about the tools I use (i.e. metasploit, nessus, nmap, hydra, etc...) when I can only understand the surface level of pentesting, particularly when Nessus/OpenVas tells you of a CVE that's "easy" to exploit but I can't do.

Is there anything you recommend I learn or do? How can I get into a mindset where I can dedicate time to do research?
I really feel like I'm simply using tools without much thought even when I try to be through.
The best engineers at banks are often traders. The majority of their compensation is given in the form of year-end bonuses. From my limited understanding, traders at the top banks can clear seven figures in annual compensation after five to eight years if they are talented.

Tech itself is often viewed as a cost center at banks, rather than a profit center. Many of its teams are not the best programmers, nor do they need to be. Their job is to understand the tools, interact with personnel in the profit centers, and use that feedback to make secure and useful updates to the firm's tools in a timely manner.

That said, there are some superstar coders who work at banks. They just don't tend to be fresh-out-of-college millennials. Bjarne Stroustrup is an example.

> If he doesn't cite critical theory, it's more because he doesn't find critical theory authoritative. (Neither do I.)

That's fine. I don't think it's "authoritative" (whatever this means in the context of considering different viewpoints and teasing out the value of intellectual work) either, though it's a little rich that a blogger is so dismissive of a whole mode of investigative thought that has pretty strong support in post-war philosophy. Even then, why not consider their opinions (which are popular, rightly or not), and criticize them?

>Also, not to put a too fine point on it, but you're a Marxist.

I think this is the real "what the hell". My ideological position, or lack of one, has nothing to do with the validity of my criticism. Nothing in my post specifically relates to Marx at all, and my criticism would be the same even if he hadn't written an article on Marx via Singer. "You're a Marxist, and Scott has been attacked by Marxists" is a pretty poor attempt at hiding an ad-hominem. Not to put too much of a fine point on it.

I have never heard of that Wiki, or anywhere else that criticizes Scott, on Reddit or elsewhere. I'm not involved in any online drama of the sort, and I don't associate with people who are, to be honest. If that's what they're doing to Scott, then I condemn their actions - especially doxxing and messaging his friends. Regardless of my ideological position, that's unacceptable.

>So you, a Marxist

Let's get this straight. Your only reason to claim I'm a Marxist is because I have an interest in Marx's work. I do not consider myself a Marxist in the strictest sense of the word[0], though I do find his work more valuable than some others may. But I could say the same thing about a host of other philosophers and economists I listen to. It's absurd that a comment about Scott has provoked such a reaction that you've decided to start making a big deal about a critical comment.

I'm sorry if my comment seemed in poor taste, or I just go around the 'net criticizing Scott. I don't, and I actually like some of his essays, in a roundabout way. My only intention was to expand on GP's point about Scott in comparison to PG.

[0] About a third of academic sociologists consider themselves Marxsits. Marxism is one of the most popular heterodox schools in economics. It's a dominant current in contemprorary political economy.

Yeah, reminds me of the (good) advice: make writing and editing two separate processes. But yet, some writers need to fiddle with their sentences until these are perfect before they can continue writing. There are certainly approaches the majority follows. But doesn’t mean you can’t deviate from that.

Unfortunately, you can’t isolate your app from the broader environment of dating apps. For instance, take the “No ELO” suggestion. Implementing this feature means you’ll attract a lot of users who don’t like ELO (typically, less attractive users) and won’t gain any users who benefit from the ELO system (attractive users). If you can’t get attractive users, you can’t get any users (Why would I join the app that only has unattractive users?)

Fixing these dating app issues is impossible because your users always make their decisions knowing that other dating apps exist.

> It will be nicer if whole sci-hub is able to move to IPFS network and accessible through a domain.

I think you have an misconception about how sci-hub works. Most of the content you can access trough sci-hub is not hosted by sci-hub, what happens when you request a fresh new paper is that your request is eventually served by a computer in the network of one of the universities with subscription to the journal which published that paper, using donated or stolen credentials of some high profile scientists if needed. Sci-hub already uses IPFS to cache some papers, it can not move to IPFS network because it is not a library of content like LibGen (which is often confused to) but an actual hub which decides how to serve your request in real time.

Ask HN: How do you do home surveillance?
In this age of IoT where devices are being taken over by strangers and (service) companies are storing clear-text passwords, how do you manage your home security? I'm talking less about motion sensors and door/window open/close sensors, and more about video surveillance. I want to add a couple of IP cameras but I'm completely petrified by the thought of someone getting access to a live feed from my house, due to the negligence of the service provider.

I've looked around and there are plenty of options for IP/Wi-Fi cameras with a tone of cool features, which can be accessed through a smartphone app, which, of course, is handled by the manufacturer (feed goes through its servers).

What I'd like is an IP camera that provides an API to which I can connect from my home server and let me see the feed only trough it. Motion sensing is also a cool, and useful feature, as it would allow me to send notifications.

How would you solve this or better yet, did you have this issue and already solved it?

There was the problem of that SGI patent that prevented using floats for framebuffers ... floats make a lot more sense rather than using this gamma nonsense.
For Haskell, when doing:

jQuery feels like the list monad, if you see chaining as similar to bind and $() not so far from return.

And for Lisp, jquery provided error handlers instead of relying on native try/except.

Of course, it's more inspired from it than the real thing, but it's far from any JS paradigm of the time. Remember that JS didn't even have map() and the only place you used your first class functions was to setInterval. Plus the joke is funnier that way :)
