Apologies in advance for being harsh, but are you a member in order of your state association of engineers, did you pass the FE exam?, was your school accredited to grant engineering diplomas?

From the perspective of "We want to help as many users as possible," this is correct.
But it undeniably has, and I've had multiple older women in management express to me that they felt their position was less respected because of the company's overt push to hire women.

Sure, in theory we're correcting the injustices brought about by inequality, but what we're really doing is presuming that minorities need extra help and white men do not, without considering that all people have struggles and, frankly, it's racist/sexist to judge people by skin color and/or gender.

You can easily invent a dozen ways to claim someone's life is underprivileged, but we only have a handful that are allowed in hiring considerations, and they all happen to be "not white or male."

It's terrifying to see how casually acceptable this has become.

While the presence of UB is annoying, but necessary, the real issue is that compiler writers use it as a means of performing optimisations instead of warnings. So you end up with a really efficient, but broken, program.

SQL isn't type-safe, so Prisma has that over it if nothing else. There's also a lot to be said for the difficulty in composing efficient SQL queries. If this tool can do that (I would be surprised) it would be a significant advancement (yes, this would be "making you not learn SQL" in the same way C makes you "not learn assembly").

More like the inability of text editors to parse templates; most IDEs rely on a full compiler backend that can usually figure things out.
Let's not forget that it is/was a paid subscription on Android, so offering it for free on iOS and keeping paid on Android would still give them a significant edge. Somebody else in this thread mentioned that Shazam is still available on Android even after the acquisition, so it's definitely not as obvious as you suggest.
> Just because something is connected to the public internet doesn't mean that you can hack it.

I never said or implied that.

All I said is, because all of my conduct involved publicly accessible components of their web application, I never exceeded authorized access.

Which means that the CFAA's clause about "unauthorized access" in particular does not apply, since none of my packets exceeded or bypassed an authentication or authorization control on their web app.

> Most homes are accessible from public roads, that doesn't mean you are allowed to climb through any open window that you see.

A better analogy is knocking on someone's door, only to discover it swings open, then walking away. And then getting charged with breaking and entering for their failure to shut their door, and then paying for damages for leaving a muddy footprint on their exterior welcome mat.

> You used a vulnerability to hack into some server associated with the FBI, I don't see any ambiguity here.

I won't argue that I'm fully without blame.

The mistake I made during all of this was, upon discovering they were running an outdated version of DotNetNuke (right click > view source; not exactly something I had to go out of my way to detect), I panicked. And to assuage my own anxiety, I tested the file upload to confirm that it was real.

That was the mistake that let them prosecute me at all. And it's a mistake I have learned from:

In the years since, I have never sent a packet with security implications to another network even for projects with a public bug bounty. I constrained myself henceforth to reviewing source code and reverse engineering, since that doesn't involve sending packets over a network and invoking a law that was written before the concept of a public network existed. (And that law being problematic is my entire point in this discussion, not appealing for amnesty in the opinions of HN users. Anyone who decides to hate me won't be the first.)

Even if I knew not to do that then, I still would have informed them of their vulnerability as soon as it was discovered. Because that was the right thing to do.
I prefer ssh-agent anyway, but yeah, I think they did remove the keychain integration patch.
After reading this comment, I get the sneaking suspicion that your definition of "diversity hire" means hiring any minority or female candidates, period.
This seems like the type of acquisition that would go unnoticed by the authorities in terms of anti-monopoly regulations, but probably should be. This is a less expensive way of building a moat than trying to merge with samsung or the like, but bit by bit you can build a huge amount of lockin by taking complementors to your competitors off the market.
Voice-Enabled Elevator
In fact, the Signal team has been explicit about why they won't federate, and, unsurprisingly, you're doing your level best to avoid being charitable to their explanation and to instead substitute your own reasoning.

Moxie's "interests" are in ensuring that that every aspect of the Signal ecosystem serves the goal of deploying cryptographic privacy to the largest number of people. This is why Signal didn't even have user profiles until recently, why it won't be until this year at the earliest that they have non-phone-number identifiers, and why even the GIF sharing feature of the application has its own purpose-built tunneling scheme. Signal simply takes privacy a lot more seriously than other tools --- especially the tool you yourself recommended, Matrix, which (while a fine and worthy project) didn't even enable E2E by default when you recommended it.

The problem federation poses to Signal's goal is the same problem Matrix faced: it forces the system into compatibility compromises with lowest-common-denominator clients. Right now, the Signal team can deploy a new privacy-preserving feature universally to all its users without negotiating with any third parties. With a federated design, they obviously could not do that. Since these kinds of features are essentially all Signal works on (much to the consternation of Hacker News), that issue is important.

But you know all this, because we've had the same "debate", with the same points made, ever since you wrote the "I Don't Trust Signal" article that derived from first principles Moxie Marlinspike's malign goals from the fact that Signal didn't support F-Droid.

The fact that you're not disclosing any of this context in your random snipes at Signal on unrelated threads is much better evidence of your bona fides than any of your arguments have been about Moxie's.
One answer to your last: people aren't going to leave their permanent job for one that has a risk of being temporary.
Presumably not very different. I assume you also cannot have individual customers fined and jailed for violating clause 336b of the 30-page contract everyone signs without reading before stepping into your store. And if you can, that's messed up.
Those companies probably also value attention to detail and would realise that our hero is called Recursive Cactus, not Calculus ;)
I'm not assuming. I'm just describing my experiences and what I've seen with my own eyes, a few times. Take it as what it is. Btw I don't assume that women are strictly diversity hires. Nowhere I said that in my statement. There are many many amazing smart women everywhere, even CS professors that I respected during my education are women. I'm just saying that diversity hire exists, that's all.

That is definitely one possibility. If you have studied a lot to get into an X companies and now you also need a lot of luck to get in, then it will deter you from quitting.

So basically, for example, two questions, Leetcode Medium difficulty, there are a few solutions. One can be done in O(n^2) the other one can be done in O(n) (non trivial algorithm). You need to code the O(n) algorithm to pass. You also need to be able to do it in under 20 mins each (total 40 mins, 5 mins for questions to the interviewer and introduction).

Sometimes the non trivial algorithm is an algorithm that you don't know, which in fact, was founded by some famous CS scientist. So in order to do that, you need to have studied that algorithm yourself and apply it during the interview. For example, Robin Karp algorithm, Knuth Morris Pratt algorithm, Djikstra algorithm.
Well, it depends a lot on where you cut the fence. Around here, though, usually someone has taken care of that before I get there.

That aside, I agree with everything you've just said. The only point where we differ, I think, is that of whether the word "nature" and its allies make a useful shorthand for any of these concepts.

I think the points you've raised deserve more focused consideration than that. For example, I agree that it's far too easy and thus too common for people to forget that we do have a unique power over our environment, and to use that power in ways that do harm. I don't think that deserves to sneak past under so fuzzy and easily dismissible a term as "unnatural"; I think it deserves to be called out for exactly what it is.

That's a lot harder to do when we make a habit of glossing over such considerations with a shorthand like "nature". That's undesirable because these are the considerations that inform every decision we make about how we exist and behave in our environment, on scales as large as that of climate change and as small as what we do with our backyards, when we have those. Or, for that matter, whether we have those. None of this stuff is as simple or as abstract as "nature" makes it seem, and that's why I argue that "nature" fails to serve a useful purpose.

> Expect at minimum 2 Medium difficulty questions in a phone interview that need to be able to be solved in optimal space time complexity in under 45 mins

I see this being repeated on Leetcode and Blind, but it is not my experience at all.

In 2019, I got Senior level (L5/E5) offers from everywhere I applied, including Facebook and Google. I never solved more than a single medium problem in 45m-1h. I was asked a hard problem maybe twice, and not at FB & G.

I also interviewed 100+ candidates at Microsoft and Google. I have seen hundreds of interview questions and feedback reports and I simply can't corroborate that statement.

No, it is undefined behaviour. Check the spec.
I think a reasonable reading of your argument is: "I told Moxie that Signal should be federated and that the Signal application should be deployed officially on the F-Droid app store. He disagreed. Here is why that makes him a bad person..."

The Wheel of Time series. I came to identify with the three main male characters (Perrin, Mat and Rand) at different periods of my life, and the story of them tackling their own personal struggles really inspired me.

The female characters in that series are also fantastic, and there's a lot to learn from them.

One quote that has stayed with me for a long time: "There is one rule, above all others, for being a man. Whatever comes, face it on your feet."
Audi may be doing some things right (I love the location of the audio volume knob), it doesn't compensate for that ridiculous touch pad which you're supposed to use to enter street names by writing the characters one by one with your finger... and many other UI warts.

The best thing about Audi's console is that fact that they support Apple CarPlay.

>How does at-will employment work with union busting?

It's similar to the way at-will employment works with ADA protected classes - sure, they can fire you, but if you can show that them firing you was because of a protected action (union organizing), you can sue and will likely win.

Given the likely fact that Amazon only cared about quarantine for this individual, only after they organized a strike, and three weeks (!) after exposure, it's pretty clear that what Amazon did here was illegal.
This happens all the time on embedded systems, when you're writing a device driver, etc. Practically speaking, it's well defined what will happen.

The most important reason authors should be fine with libraries lending out "their" (the authors') books for free is that libraries lend out their (the library's) books for free.

The thing is, pollinators have to eat all year. You get more bang for your buck by planting things with long or repeated flowering intervals, or things that bloom at odd times. I've seen rosemary flower 3 times in one year due to sustained rainy periods.

And then there are predator species that need certain flowers for forage or shelter during some part of their lifecycle, like lady beetles or some predatory wasps with yarrow (a common volunteer plant in NA)

I've designed hardware and software for a number of touchscreen devices and applications. I even invented the double-sided touchscreen, which may show up in phones in another few years.)
So I love touchscreens, BUT, he lack of feel makes knobs, buttons and switches a far better choice for moving environments - I hate most new cars that lack real controls for at least commonly used functions. It's hard to beat the knobs and sliders in most 50-60 year-old cars for easy work-by-feel operation.

(FWIW, I always thought it would have been cool if someone in StarTrek TNG/DS9/Voyager had sat down at one of those smooth glass LCARS interface panels and been surprised that they could "feel" 3D controls on them. That seems to be the sort of thing that would be done given the obvious capabilities of their holo/forcefield generators...)

I think major difference is commercial airliner vs say fighter jet. As a layman it still seems pretty wrong to make most of the screen highly dynamic. Maybe designated one on the side.

Back to the topic - in car, unless specifically intended for other passengers, driver should never stare on some stupid screen in a place way off the line of sight for driving. Whenever I do that even for a split second in my 15-year old bmw (checking if that knob is really for what I want), there can be an atomic blast in front of me and I wouldn't see it.

This is so silly. Here's teh secret: your programming ability is set genetically by how much Yeti blood you have in your ancestry. Yeti half-breeds recognize each other (often unconsciously) by smell. That's why some people can get programming jobs hella easily while others just can't even after strenuous training. Check your feet. If your second toe isn't longer than your big toe you're screwed. Give it up. You might as well go get an MBA or something.
