This post resonates with me completely. Products need to solve problems people other than ourselves actually have. We have not always been perfect at this and started like you have here, by speaking to people, then we got too into the code to hear what users were saying, now we're back on the straight and narrow! Set up a public roadmap the other day, this is now working very well and we are shipping features genuinely requested and upvoted by users. This has taken all the guesswork out of product development. I'm happy to share for reference: https://did.nolt.io/ https://did.app/

And your reasoning for that? Seriously, playing your word-puzzle is so interesting. I learn so much from you about how to present stupid arguments and get over with it.
I think the authors umbrage is not about naming it that, but them copying his project after this whole process and then naming it that and still not really crediting him.
This is basically exactly my experience. Google's index is much more current and contains more obscure content. When I know exactly what I'm looking for but forgot the exact name or something like that, Google's fancy AI really helps. For more general queries, DDG is sometimes better.
If i could suggest anything it would be a way to make a selection while playing. Like hold down shift, press space bar, and then press space bar again, and it's all selected.
It was more that he could have said "No" to them, where as in this case he cannot really say "no" (or "yes" for that matter).
There's no inherent right to go unchallenged when raising unsubstantiated claims. Providing facts-checking can be seen as a service in those cases where it is important that the public make informed decisions based on facts. Social media has been mandated to combat fake news, and this is within their mandate, as well as outright banning any person or post on their private platform.

It may be good to raise the issue how much power social media should have, but please don't conflate the issue with personal vendettas of some public figures, or too much toleration of relativistic alternative facts.
From the article, it seems like the four horns on each individual unit are enough to do the triangulation.

First: That's a big "if". Lots of RSA legacy support.

Furthermore, ECDSA is so bad that Ed25519 and Ed448 are even coming to FIPS 186-5 later this year.

Citing ECDSA adoption in DNSSEC doesn't make as strong of a case as you might think.
> Edit: Wow. Downvote in five seconds. Really makes you think how much effort people are putting into processing the words I wrote.

What is there to process besides you making a strawman and injecting flat politically polarized tropes and adding nothing but pollution to a discussion? You are arguing in bad faith with shoddy arguments and should be downvoted:

- False equivalence between blue collar and white collar outsourcing -- what makes you think knowledge work isn't substantially different from blue collar work for them to be apples and oranges?

- Putting words in someone else's mouth -- no one here ragged on Trump voters who "didn't see any other way out" -- you perceived that and projected it into a space inappropriately. This is a giant forum with a variety of people and political opinions. Don't flatten that into a single viewpoint and expect to not get heat for it.

- Misunderstanding of labor pricing. Employers pay the minimum they can, but saying "salaries are high right now because of concentration of talent" misses the network effect of concentration of talent. If you don't understand the nonlinear effect of that, I think it is a little bit misguided to suggest that others do not understand "basic economics"

Please, rethink how you worded your post and how you can say what you were trying to say in a more factually grounded and less inflammatory way. I promise you will get better responses with this approach.
Nobody can take my job because they couldn't pay someone enough to do my job. That said, my job could simply go away, and I'm working hard to make that happen. When my job goes away, hopefully the value I demonstrated in doing that will be enough for me to get another job.
Absolutely agree: the repo is active so waiting a license to be pushed.
That's a nice sentiment. Every country is looking for skilled IT workers. The amount of positions isn't going to magically decrease to create an overflow of ITers. There'll still be a shortage.

Having personally seen the quality of outsourced code and the effort needed to clean up the mess in order to make the product stable, companies are going to be in for a nice surprise if they think that short-changing devs and simply going remote will work in their favor.

Interesting times are ahead.

I've been following your activity because of your strong stance on privacy and very much agree with this post.

Hypocritical statement considering Facebook shut down all live streams from Minneapolis around 1:30 last night. They're arguing against their own ability to do that? Unlikely- sounds more like political pandering to get on the good side of whatever executive order is being cooked up.

That's a matter of opinion. I don't find using "$@" to be a big deal in practice.

Let me put it like this: I'm a programmer. I don't mind making programming a bit harder for myself if it means that I get to avoid a lot of the non-programing minutia that's part of a modern interpreted environment.

You're right.

> The best way to prevent the spread of viruses like Corona is to put everyone in a straightjacket and chain them to the floor in their home. Epidemiologists will keep saying people need to stay inside because that’s safer.

This is a hyperbolic take on shelter in place orders and wearing masks. You have replaced the actual recommendations and public orders with a call for complete removal of bodily autonomy even though this was never the case. At no time were people unable to drive to the grocery store for example. They were however restricted from congregating at the beauty salon because of obvious issue with viral transmission.

You have substituted "we need to take precautions as a society" with "let's remove everyone's ability to use their arms and move more than a few feet". Then you went on to suggest that this is akin to what epidemiologists would have us do if given their preference.

If you honestly believe what is happening now is just a precursor to your replacement premise, profound elimination of bodily autonomy, this would fall under another common logical fallacy known as the slippery slope.

> You need the other people to have a voice as well because you can’t live and eliminate all risks at the same time.

Has anyone said, "We want to eliminate all risks"? Has anyone said, "Hanson must not be allowed to speak"?

No. The actual proposed arguments have been, "We want to mitigate risk while looking more closely at what the risks levels actually are," and "Hanson is an economist, not a medical professional who has dedicated their life to the study of infectious disease; therefore his opinion should not carry as much weight as theirs."

So you see? The actual arguments have been substituted for your more hyperbolic and untenable remarks. The hyperbolic remarks are then refuted, not the original arguments.

Ergo: straw man fallacy

Good day, sir.

>It may be good to raise the issue how much power social media should have

I was specifically talking about this issue and it's the commentators that went to "personal vendettas or introduction of relativistic alternative facts."
The US has 330m people, you generally (emphasis, as there are certainly exceptions) don't need to look beyond its labor base to find what you're looking for.

If you're in Estonia and looking to hire a software engineer for remote work, maybe you end up hiring someone from Poland or Spain. That's still EU hiring in the EU, more akin to what you're referring to with the US. On average the smaller the country, it probably increases the odds that more of the labor you're looking for is going to be outside of your own borders.
The employers can also balance out the wages.

Your saving on travel, they save on building, building services and location adjusted wages.

With huge savings being made by all businesses and less costs on the balance sheet.

Wages will come under intense scrutiny.
Indeed. Perhaps Hanlon's Razor is a better parallel for this particular situation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor

I've also heard it expressed as "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence".

Although in this case I'm not sure organisational incompetence is necessarily a good enough explanation given there are ex-Microsofters in the discussion suggesting that people would actively have been weighing up whether or not to screw over Keivan. (Obviously I have no idea how likely that is to be true either.)

Yes, recent changes in the tax code made it less enticing for US companies to offshore US jobs. The company can potentially end up losing a lot of (otherwise legitimately acquired) tax benefits.

With respect to R&D, for example, the US no longer allows foreign R&D activities to qualify for the R&D tax credit.

hey hn! i'm the author of this tutorial, here to answer any questions.

as i wrote on twitter [1] i'm super excited about complex and interesting stuff like user authorization/authentication on the edge, and this tutorial was written after doing some explorations on that front over the last few months.

i'm particularly excited about one of the later parts of the tutorial, which shows how to take user info from auth0 and inline it directly into your application using Cloudflare Workers' streaming HTML rewriter. it's a very cool way to dynamically inject data into your static applications at the edge!

You can use Bazel to build a self-contained Python binary that bundles the interpreter and all its dependencies by using a py_runtime rule[1]. It's fairly straightforward and doesn't require much Bazel knowledge - there are simple examples on GitHub[2].

There are a couple other tools that take the same approach, including PyOxidizer[3], which was written by a Mercurial maintainer.

Hi Corey! I'm the author of the blog post - I definitely agree with you. 9 times out of 10 engineering teams underestimate cost of engineering work as well as opportunity cost lost due to managing non-core functionality internally or moving away from managed services.

For us our pipeline was actually easier to work with Flink than Glue because of the restrictions that Amazon placed on it and so that factored into our decision.
There's no fundamental reason why you couldn't write an abstraction around the page table that the rust borrow checker understands.

The rust borrow checker works on the principle of ensuring that if you have a unique pointer (&mut) to something, nothing else can access it. If you have a shared pointer (&) to something, nothing else is mutating it except where internal mutability is explicitly marked (UnsafeCell, and abstractions using UnsafeCell such as Cell, RefCell, Mutex, RwLock, and so on).

To mutate a page table entry you would need an &mut reference to it, to access a page you would need an & reference to the page table entry (from the &PageTableEntry you would get a &[u8] pointing to the data which the borrow checker would guarantee you drop before you drop the &PageTableEntry before anything mutates the PageTableEntry).
"By your definition the subjective experience says nothing about how a heart actually works."

No, that's a reductionist assumption. When I say "subjective experience" I am explicitly not indicating its quantifiable aspects. I am indicating what Nagel talks about in "What It Is Like to Be a Bat," the what-it-is-likeness, the phenomenological aspect. Not the increased pulse, not the hormones being released, not the neurons firing in the brain that correspond to a feeling of anger--the anger itself. An idealized observer enumerating all of anger's physical correlates does not give that observer the experience of that anger as it is felt by the person experiencing it. There is a difference between understanding something and living something.
As someone also from a low-income rural community, I'd say that entire scenario you presented has problems deeper than removal of social systems. If you were to rank worlds from best to worst, I'd say it looks like this:
1. The poor are net positive on the tax/social system.
2. The poor are neutral on the tax/social system.
3. The poor are negative but not dependent on the tax/social system.
4. The poor are negative and dependent on the tax/social system.
5. The poor are negative and have no social system.

In your scenario, the poor start at 4. In your view, the current admin trying to move towards 5. In your view, how does one get to 3? I imagine the move to 3 would require scaling back the social system as to prevent abuse and dependency on it.

We probably agree that the poor shouldn't remain a negative impact on the tax payer and dependent on the social system (I'm a conservative, you seem to lean more left of center on this). Where we likely disagree is how to get to 3, and I think scaling back social systems is some cold water in the face to help catalyze that change.

Yes? For a tech company outsourcing software creation is like outsourcing upper management, sure you can do it but then you basically move the whole business. If you want to create an American tech company then the tech needs to be built in America. Indian tech companies are not nearly as successful as American ones, so you probably want to stay an American tech company today. Once India starts cranking out companies that beats out American ones you will probably see more tech companies move their entire HQ there, but until then they will mostly stay in USA.

There are some corruptions I’ve seen on failed Windows Updates where the user profile was entirely gone and had to be recovered from hard disk with data recovery software. It’s fairly rare. For what I do, I don’t usually have the justification to find out why this happens when it does.

The system is hardware and software. Some software problems have an underlying hardware problem causing them. Relatedly, drive failure is very common in the field, especially on laptops. SSD failure is also a thing, but nearly an order of magnitude less frequent in my own workload. Neither here nor there, just trying to say there’s a lot of ways a computer can break. In my opinion it’s great they work as well as they do considering what I’ve seen them put through.

Yes. And the answer by Chiron1991 is the proper way to do this since pretty much forever.
Well either you have internal state or you don't. If you don't have internal state (and it just returns the answer), then there is no difference between it and a function.

If it does have internal state, then the answer it returns depends on the value of that internal state which means it's hard to verify that the answer returned is correct since you have to know the internal state of the object.

My question is has anybody really attempted it in a rust kernel to make the sort of automatic safety measures we know rust for mean anything at all.
