I remember an article[0] from mid-March saying Tesla employees could have up to two weeks paid time off if they didn't feel comfortable coming back after the shelter-in-place order was lifted.

Is paid time off not a big thing in the US? I would have thought Tesla would have good employee benefits, or would it not really cover wanting to be off for preventative reasons if they're not currently sick.

I work for a tech company in the UK and they pay up to a full year of full sick pay, then reduced for up to five years. We're covered under that if we're advised to stay at home due to having pre-existing medical conditions or advised to by a doctor, or if showing any symptoms and thus self-isolating.

Would an article about immigrant workers at meat processing plants get to the HN frontpage?
We need to distinguish between npm, the service (https://www.npmjs.com/) and npm, the tool.

Deno has the functionality of npm, the tool, built-in.

The difference is that like Go, Deno imports the code directly from the source repository.

In practice it's going to be github.com (but can be gitlab or any code hosting that you, the author of Deno module, use).

NPM is a un-necessary layer that both Go and Deno has removed.

It's better because it's simpler for everyone involved.

In Go, I don't need to "publish" my library. People can just import the latest version or, if they want reproducibility, an explicit git revision. Compared to Go, publishing to npm is just unnecessary busy work.

I've seen JavaScript libraries where every other commit is related to publishing a new version to npm, littering the commit history.

In Go there's no need for package.json, which mostly replicates the information that was lost when publishing to npm (who's the author? what's the license? where's the actual source repository?).

As to this being insecure: we have over 10 years of experience in Go ecosystem that shows that in practice it works just fine.

Sadly I think more of a scorched earth approach is required.

The web as we know it and the handful of corporations that dominate it are known to be compromised and no amount of work arounds will change that.

The real answer is the complete boycott of the major providers, more independent ISPs, E2EE, and embracing alternative protocols.

Dependency management is a major cornerstone of any infosec program. There is more to that than just auto-installing a new dependency version.

Because a large dependency graph is slow, insecure, and fragile.

I suspect at this point it will require a new interpreter to fully address the deeply-embedded assumptions about memory access and bytecode execution in CPython. This has been tried many times, though, with only PyPy really seeing much traction. CPython being the de-facto interpreter, and the huge ecosystem of widely-used C extensions, makes any change likely to be slow... and the upside would need to be very compelling.

I think what we see instead is people moving to different runtimes altogether -- golang, jvm, v8, whatever.

I would suggest that Python has gone off the rails trying to mimic other languages too much recently. At some point the identity crisis hopefully ends and Python will return to it's strengths -- which are best expressed by the Zen of Python. Until then, get ready for more features.

It's a backwards framing of the problem. Think about it: in a country where everyone is white, is there “white privilege?” How can the majority of people in a country be “privileged?” Is that how normal people talk? The issue isn't white privilege. By almost any metric, the most "privileged" demographic in the U.S. is actually Asians. (A U.S.-born Asian growing up in the bottom 20% of the income distribution has a 27% chance of ending up in the top 20%. That's far ahead of whites born in the bottom 20%.) The real problem is that African Americans are disadvantaged. The "privilege" that whites enjoy is that they don't suffer all the social disadvantages of being African American.

It's one thing to be self-aware and think about who you are when you formulate the arguments and opinions and solutions you put out in front of the world and to others. It's quite another thing to judge the merit of someone's opinions and solutions based on who you think they are. Figure out which you're talking about.

Given the issues in terms of lives lost and economic damage due to the pandemic, the outcome of a terrorist attack doesn't really seem that bad.

Sure, it's anti-social. But is it more or less anti-social than running a huge software platform that advertises the ways to exploit itself?

I think it's a very interesting question. Who is more deserving of a good experience - uninformed users who might get taken advantage of by malicious extensions, or developers for the platform, who definitely do get taken advantage of by virtue of running afoul of rules they can't read?

Even if the average damage to a user is very low, the ratio of users to developers is massive.
Maybe. That said, he was one of the few people, who actually made Clapper lie in front the of the entire world. Reportedly, this lie was a breaking point for Snowden who saw the exchange between Clapper and Wyden[0].

While I would be willing to accept your suggestion that is basically just Kabuki theatre, it seems even more cynical than I am willing to contemplate now.

I am saying this, because Wyden visibly pushed Clapper ( apparently knowing that he was lying ).

edit: Come to think of it, if Wyden was a genuine threat, I am sure security apparatus would have tried to take him down by now. But no dead hookers, no unsavory hobbies, no character assassination.. your suggestion makes more sense than I initially thought it had.

For one, we have a POTUS that may have benefited knowingly or unknowingly by means of a foreign intelligence influence campaign. This gives those entities a free pass to influence campaigns or to hide other types of spying relating to an incumbent who is running for re-election.

> ... an amazingly huge oversight ... a point in favor of the review process

This seems like a rosy interpretation. It's not actually clear whether http permissions really are the reason the extension got flagged, and the fact that fixing them didn't affect the review feedback implies that the process isn't working the way you're imagining.
Aside from the blatantly obvious issue of equal protection of the law, if the people who would have to pass a broader law are already protected by one that is narrowly focused on them, they're less incentivized to pass the broader law. Letting the narrow law pass creates a barrier to passing the broader law.
I have it on my desk!
It's a matter of degree, I imagine. Some approaches expose one to this risk to a greater degree than others. The highest risk might be placing an app or extension into a walled-off store controlled by a single company with sole authority over what is listed there.
It's so difficult to imagine a) getting ahold of someone at Google who can actually help you, and b) having some sense of assurance that they will actually help you.

"Google deleted my X" posts always rise to the top on HN because they elicit a strong emotional response from developers. I think it's worthwhile to reflect on why that happens. For me, it's because I absolutely despise seeing an algorithm have control over an individual's livelihood. This may be part of the Google mythos? Or it may simply be that they make their real money selling ads, and allocate support resources accordingly.

I find death in roguelikes too punishing and unfair, it diminishes that effect for me greatly. I'll never be able to feel intensity for it because I don't feel like I ever manage to accomplish anything worth saving before I die in them so I just run headlong into combat with whatever garbage I have, die and quit out.

I'm yet to find a roguelike where I can feel like I made serious progress without dumping many hours into learning all the mechanics. It's a fairly narrow window of punishing but fair that allows me to feel any intensity at all from games, most I just feel are too easy or too hard to produce it.

I can enjoy the crap out of easy ones, just not for the intensity, but hard ones like roguelikes I just give up on quickly. Dark Souls seems much less punishing to me than most roguelikes in this sense.
> For that you'd have to open up network and file access pretty much right off the bat.

For the network access I have an issue[0] open that asks to separate permissions to listen on the network from permission to dial. Also, along the way I want to have the ability to let the OS pick the port as an option.

Permissions are meant to work by whitelisting. So you wouldn't open access to the whole system just to talk to your DB, or to operate on some files.

From the article:

> “Once you are called back, you will no longer be on furlough so if you choose not to work, it may impact your unemployment benefits as determined by your local government agency — and not by Tesla,” Workman wrote in the email. “We completely respect your decision and will support you, without any penalties from us.”

I feel like this is going to be a common problem as things start to reopen. I hope the state devises a workable solution.

I'm not sure what the point of your questions is. Breaking backwards-compatibility makes headaches for maintainers for all of the reasons you list and more. I'd love to see Monty take an even more radical approach, with a "thin enough" compatibility layer. It'd be a great language with all sorts of improvements and mostly-familiar syntax, and old, stable Python libraries would stay stable -- even through a compatibility layer.

How will finding someone to blame make the problem any better?

Finding fault isn’t useful here. Our mental energy is better spent finding ways to fix the process and/or technologies.
Framing is a challenging problem but you are right that it is important.

Locally we have a lot of black immigrants, they of course have a lot of challenges. They often get lumped into a "black" group.

But looking at the statistics closer indicates they are making fast progress in many areas, similarly to a local immigrant Asian population made many years ago.

However, the local African Americans generally are not making a lot educational or economic progress.

The differences are striking and really change where you think more / different resources are needed and what is going on for a given group.

Unemployment benefits are available not only to people who lost their job, but also to furloughed people, i.e. people who are told by their employer "your services are not needed at this time, and by the way, we aren't able to pay you either, but when we'll need you back, we'll give you a call". Well, now these guys got the call. If they decide to stay at home, should the Government keep paying them unemployment benefits, or not? If yes, then it should be yes, if not, not, but this is Government's problem, not Tesla's problem.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, everybody. Right now on the NYT side there's a story about renewable resources being used more than coal. Great news, but is it more important than the government snarfing your browser history? A California congressional election? We have college students considering gap years, LA Times has a spurious Wuhan-interest story and a whole 1/3 sidebar dedicated to the death count.

There are plenty of stories being written, but not about this. Pretty much at all. That is the problem, and I don't know how assigning blame certain outlets would change that. We don't know if pitches are getting rejected, or the money is in other topics, or anything, but the simple fact is that it's not happening and it's something that affects everybody in the US (and beyond, I'm sure).

Paid time off/sick leave is already rare enough in the US, I don't think tesla has any incentive to really go above and beyond there. They don't need to attract talent using things like compensation and benefits or showing basic human decency in caring about their health during a pandemic. The cult of personality is really strong around Elon (and that's not a diss in any way, he's so powerfully charismatic and driven that he's willed a rocket company and an electric car company into existence). He's got a natural ability to get some of the best technical talent and financiers to believe in him and his vision and spend ridiculously long hours on their mission of saving the world while they could have far more comfortable jobs elsewhere. Why would you complain about long hours and unsafe conditions when you're boss who is basically a real life iron man (to the extent he was actually in the MCU as a cameo) is sleeping on the floor next to you in the factory? You can get away with an awful lot when you're that charismatic (yes of course he doesn't smooth talk and mostly communicate in hesitation technical snippets and weird tweets, a smooth talking clinton/jobs type wouldn't get the same type of bubble he does).

> Those are all different kinds of “it” with differences which affect your application design.

"It" here is concurrency, and Go proves that its possible for a language to have "one way to do it". Goroutines are often seen as an alternative to async/await, but they're also a better parallelism solution than all of Python's threading, multiprocessing and subinterpreters.

> If you want a stronger criticism, pick multiprocessing/threading and concurrent, and the long migration trajectory for deprecating the older ones.

I haven't heard anything about deprecating multiprocessing/threading. Is that the long-term plan for subinterpreters?
