I think that's good that he doesn't sell, having built a enormous marketing presence and gained market trust is only a minor step away from actually monetizing that.
Selling what he has right now does indeed come with golden handcuffs (sucks), but also any purchase price would come in vastly under the projects' potential.

He could easily leverage this marketing presence to build a security SaaS company, create a huge conference, launch a big consultancy,...

If you value independence then running your own profitable balance sheet is the best thing you can do.

This is an apples to orange comparison. Most network admins are lazy and just provide full L3 access so they don't have deal with any access issues. Most users use VPNs as an access mechanism rather than to secure anything.

> Maybe as more people become aware of recycling inefficiencies, we'll start diverting dollars go businesses that focus on longevity and reusability of their products?

Sounds good to me in theory, but the confusion for me has always been: how do you overhaul the packaging of all these small consumable items (like Pepsi and Coke) so they're either more easily recyclable or reusable and also benefit the manufacturer at the same time? I'm sure the government can create incentives but will that be enough? Will people be willing to pay more money for a more environmentally friendly option if a less environmentally friendly but more affordable option exists?
If we were actually serious about saving the planet, we'd just pass laws that mandate companies have to use certain specified bottles, and give them no choice.

But of course, lobbying and profits are more important.

I'm graduating in CS at CU Boulder. I'm looking for a position as a software developer. I have extensive experience in Front-End development working with react, as well as Software Development experience working at Panasonic, where I developed a code pipeline monitoring application from scratch. Take a chance with me as a new graduate! I learn fast. I adapt quickly. I won't disappoint.
My 386 PS/2 Model 70 had 2 MB and ran 16 MHz. I copied Windows 3.0 from a school computer, using the arj file compressor, to a bunch of diskettes and then to this computer. Started no problem when I typed "win" on the DOS prompt.

I think you’re overestimating how much people pay attention to the body part of the import paths. Since there have been a quite few projects that implemented a sort of redirect (i.e. ‘vanity’ imports [0]) most people’s eyes just glaze over the small change in the URL.

I would strongly suggest using /v2 at the end. /v1 not existing on *.golang.org is not a problem in practice, but if it ends up one you could just set that up as a vanity import pointing to github.com for the old version.

Hah, too true.

I find giving them smaller, well defined tasks and checking in frequently helps erk some productivity out of them. Also having lots of check-ins and pair-debugging sessions opens the door for a lot of mentoring opportunities. If their still bad, send 'em to tech support or QA! (only kind-of kidding)
He doesn't ACTUALLY suggest port knocking, just the concept ("do something in order to open a firewall hole"). The proposed solution using Lambda w/ 2FA is actually pretty cool.
Agreed, plastic should be treated as a substance which delays the burning of petrochemicals to provide power.

Also, minimized whenever possible. Cheap single-use plastics are often more trouble than they're worth.

Many people don't realize exactly how much plastic is used up in logistics, just wrapping things before they reach the consumer. It's a bit appalling.

Leap year is a more likely snag here.
You can of course melt almost any unprocessed cheese without separating it, but they all split if overheated and don't behave well with added liquid (e.g. in sauces) without assistance from some additive. Processed cheeses with these "melting salts" have categorically different melting characteristics, they aren't trying to merely simulate regular cheese; they start as out as regular cheese after all.
They also bind to the "/" to focus on their searchbox, which breaks the native behavior in FF (which would be a single-keystroke for Find in Page, at least meta-f still works). Google likes to do this too, e.g. Google Tag Manager.

Waymo raises first external investment round
Arguably, 3M should have put the price up as soon as demand shot up, so that stock would not run out. Shortages are a market inefficiency. If masks are suddenly valuable because they are required to handle an ongoing health crisis, the price ought to reflect that. The "price gougers" are correcting that inefficiency, and the profit that they make is their comission.

The trouble is that unlike in the perfect world we wish the market worked in, the most deserving are not always the best funded. So it would probably be more ethical for either 3M or the "price gougers" to offer some sort of preferential pricing - although deciding who to offer it to might be tricky.

Perhaps, in an ideal world, the government is competently in charge of any urgent social emergency, and if resources are required the government can pluck them out of any incipient market bubble by gently requiring that the entire stock be sold to them, at a fair market price.

I can understand choosing not to support it. Safari is frustrating to web developers because you can't legally test on it without owning Apple hardware. Whereas Microsoft provides free virtual machines for testing on its browsers. I've done the same thing on my personal sites - I've outright blocked Safari with a message explaining that I won't unblock it until Apple provides a Safari VM.

Show HN: Getparked.io – Domain Bsckordering
Hi all!
I had a little bit of time on my hands so I decided to put together https://www.GetParked.io, a domain backordering service. It allows you to search for a domain name, and backorder it if it's currently registered by someone else. GetParked will then try to acquire the domain for you when it expires.
It costs nothing, except for if it actually is able to secure the domain for you, and is of course free to simply check the status and registration info of any domain name.
I built it because as someone who enjoys building websites, I've always had trouble getting the domain names that I want. So I thought it would be fun to build something that will check availability for me without having to sit and hit refresh on a registrar. Please let me know what you think!
I believe we may be stretching "practical".
Pretty much every time I do a migration from one data center or office migration I set up an OpenVPN that bridges the network segments at the two locations. It makes the move so much easier.

Once set up, I can shut down a machine at one location, move it, bring it back up, and it's back in business. There are situations where we might want to migrate to new machines during the move, which this makes no harder. But for many things it makes them easier.

For example, the last move went something like this: Set up the VPN+bridge. Move half the application servers. Set up new firewall/load balancer since we were replacing the old ones. Test the new fw/lb. Physically move the primary database server during a maintenance window and switch over to the new fw/lb. If there were problems, just switch back to the old one via DNS record changes (TTL was lowered weeks earlier). Move the remaining app servers. During the bridging setup, the LBs preferred the local app servers.
You know what makes support stand out, in a positive way?

Actually reading my question.

Giving me a competent answer that doesn't include telling me to try thing that I've already tried, and which I've also documented in my original email/support ticket (see my first point).

If I hit a bug in the system, acknowledge that it's a bug, and tell me something about its state (has it been triaged yet?). If possible, point me to it in a public bug tracker.

Yep, fuddy-duddy tech = safe tech.
I've actually shown this project to several people with varying degrees of technical knowledge. The technical people have generally already considered the privacy implications of what they've shared on the internet, fully expecting most things to become public thanks to crappy code/policies. They're usually more interested in what a rewrite of TAO looks like, or how you decompile rendered frontend code back into accessible JSON.

As for the less technical people, they tend to be significantly more annoyed at Facebook when I tell them that their old comment threads / messages are likely incoherent junk.
A similar philosophy can often be applied to the web
> A majority of people are significantly above the poverty line. If they're living hand-to-mouth, they are mismanaging their finances.

Or, another scenario, the 'poverty line' is arbitrary and hardly an indicator of universal financial power.

In other words : the poverty salary 'line' tells you nothing of burden, it's just a magic number. If an individual has multiple unknown burdens, their 'poverty line' is at a much different , unknown, level.

I live in California, mostly. I know of families that live (far) below the 'Poverty Line', but because they send everything they can back to their home country for the rest of their family to live on.

Suddenly an individual at the poverty line is supporting 3-7 people in another country; and has no real legal way to justify or exemplify the practice in any legal financial way that would signify their increased burden - they become essentially a lost statistic and generally lie on their taxes due to fear of losing the arrangement.

Individuals that lead this style of life tend to go back home periodically simply because the burden of living in the US with a sub-poverty income isn't realistic.

tl;dr : The poverty income line alone means next to nothing in personal context. Don't assume that you can dwindle every persons' life down to fitting within it, that's not realistic. Saving money is absolutely important, I agree, but let's not just assume that that kind of financial flexibility exists for every individual. It'd be nice, but it's fantasy.
I know. But I think Java had them before C++, and I think that Java was the first mainstream, C++-syntax, object-oriented language to have them. (Yeah, I know, that's not saying much, because C++ and Java are the only two mainstream, C++-syntax, object-oriented languages.) The point was, C++ could have looked at Java as proof that a language like C++ could have closures, and so one could suspect that the immediate, direct inspiration was from Java.

I only mentioned closures because it's the only feature I could think of that C++ has, but Java had first. (I welcome other examples, if anyone has them.)
Firstly, I work at Slab.com — a knowledge hub for teams. So, obviously I'm slanted in my perspective. But I'm not going to pitch the specifics of Slab here for you. Rather, I'm going to share a post we recently published designed to help teams document/write overcome knowledge hoarding (regardless of what tool/system they use):

https://slab.com/blog/knowledge-hoarding/

It's not a direct pitch to use Slab. In it we talk about the three reasons we discovered most folks hoard knowledge:

1. Leverage: If an employee hoards their knowledge, they may feel like they are irreplaceable.
2. Fear: Putting yourself out there can be intimidating. What if colleagues or supervisors respond with negative feedback?
3. Competition: If your workplace rewards personal triumphs over shared victories, employees are less likely to want to share their "secrets."

Also, no matter what documentation tool you use, it's worth reading this first: https://slab.com/blog/documentation-tools/

Many teams initially gravitate toward more generic document editors (Google Docs) as their first team wiki, for logical reasons:

- These editors are familiar to most people, meaning they can be easier to adopt across an organization
- Most companies already use (and pay for) at least one of these tools
- Teams realize the need for documentation, but aren't thinking of how their documentation tool will scale alongside their business

But there are some issues with these document editors that teams discover as they grow. This article dives deep into those shortcomings. Here are both article links again, and good luck!

There is a thin slice of space in which photons are bent 180 degrees around a black hole.

Given sufficient resolving capability, you could theoretically zoom into that slice and see earth as it was 2x the distance in light years ago. Realistically it would be a dusty noisy mess, but there are photons coming back to earth after bouncing off in the direction of the center of our galaxy 50,000 years ago.

The boring low-risk unsexy thing that works is often underrated. I didn't choose CF — at the time I argued that it was a tool for scrubs, but the VPE said, "Hey, I know it, and I know it can do the job." We launched that CF-based web site on time and sold the company for $350MM fewer than six months later. Only then did we incrementally port it to Java.
They aren't alleging a violation of FTC marketing guidelines, they're alleging a violation of California marketing guidance, which sets a higher (though still, as far as I can tell, optional) standard. Regardless, a company can still be culpable and held liable for wrongdoing even if they've dutifully followed "industry standards".

I agree the lawsuit is unlikely to go anywhere. But many people said the same about the lawsuits against big tobacco. And even if the lawsuit is tossed at the very first opportunity the organization has called attention to some of the worst actors when it comes to plastic production. I'd call that a win.

Either way it's the way our system slowly but sure gets the wheels of progress spinning.
Well, it works pretty well for me, haven't had any serious problems DMing for 5 people 3 of which were complete newbies with d&d and roll20. Maybe because my players are mostly programmers. Or because I had to use roll20 because I don't have people to play with locally so I learnt both roll20 and d&d 5 at the same time.

I actually don't think that would be a good idea, because it would result in a culture of "eh, why fix the bugs in this major OS release, we have a fix-up OS release next year just for that". I don't want to end up in the same situation as that of old Windows releases, where major OS versions were nigh unusable until the Service Pack 1 release.

For a while, before it really started to bloat, FB Messenger was the slickest, most well-rounded, most enjoyable messaging client I could find, and had the advantage that all of your friends were already on it. The bloating from Stories and everything happened to coincide with my ejection of all things Facebook from my life, but Messenger was a genuinely good product at one point. Sounds like it may be returning to that (though unfortunately that ship has sailed for other reasons).
