I think there is some convenience in being able to use the type system to denote input which has already been validated; however, I can't see how a language runtime benefits from this property with respect to unicode. Notable, printing and processing text aren't operations a runtime typically deals with. Libraries including the standard library might benefit from this property, but even then I wouldn't say the benefit is "great". It's a nice property, but I don't think it makes or breaks anything.
This is one of the most useful ones here that I didn't already know, thank you
I'm unconvinced your approach works beyond a narrow range of use cases. The weakness is the "is this a problem" issue. You have a diff. Is it really significant? If it's significant, how did it arise? You can spend an inordinate amount of time answering those two questions, and you may have to do it again with every run. Diffs are cheap to implement but costly to use over time. That inversion of costs means users may end up bogged down maintaining the existing mechanism and unable to invest in other approaches.

If I were going after the same problem I would try to do a couple of things.

1. Reframe the QA problem to make it smaller. Reducing the number and size of pipelines is a good start. That has a bunch of knock-on benefits beyond correctness.

2. Look at data cleaning technologies. QA on datasets is a variation on this problem. For example if you can develop predicates that check for common safety conditions on data like detecting bad addresses or SSANs you give users immediately usable quality information. There's a lot more you can do here.

Assuming you are working on this project, I wish you good luck. You can contact me at rhodges at altinity dot com if you want to discuss further. I've been dealing with QA problems on data for a long time.
Seems out of date. For example, it links to Digilent's retired Zybo board instead of the current version.
This advice might seem too simple, but the solution is to just start doing a ton of physics problems rather than trying to resolve any of these issues. Your heuristics for real world physics will probably change faster than you think, and it's very satisfying to feel like you really understand a common phenomenon in depth.

It does sound more like you want to study engineering from your latter paragraphs, but I'd argue a lot of that stuff is just industry knowledge you'd gather over time actually building things. Physics gives you the ability to do some back of the napkin maths to see if something seems to be the realm of feasibility though.
Not really, I have been playing with different languages and technologies. Anything that interests me :)
I just saw this last night and was going to add it. I agree totally with your take.

> I had to read it a few times to ensure I wasn’t misunderstanding: the majority of my team thought I didn’t show care for them?!

> I started writing a “How to work with Julie” guide for my team

What?!

So your team tells you they don't feel cared for by you and your reaction is to write a guide for them on how to work with you? Talk about not getting the message.

I do think it's very important to have good communication, introspection and awareness of others as well as the way they work. But writing a guide about yourself and expecting others to follow it is not the best way to achieve that.

Maybe do write the guide, but keep it to yourself then use it as a way to get to know yourself better and see how you can improve your way of working with others.

In terms of building rapport in a safe environment, my preferred approach is to have standup-style meetings in which everyone in the team gets a turn to speak and they have an opportunity and space to open up and be vulnerable. This is usually lead by a manager that shows vulnerability first as a way to let the rest feel more at ease with sharing. You can do these weekly and they can last 15-30min. Over time they are very powerful and help tremendously in improving the way people treat each other, as well as detecting potential issues.

I've been using the Markup in Preview since they went system-wide in macOS Mojave. (Today I learned that Markup debuted as an extension in Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. [0])

This comment and its children sent me on a spelunking mission and the treasures I found. Markup has a Loupe tool and Speech Bubbles.!

Such features are many, various, and somewhat obscure, akin to Easter Eggs. (Both undiscoverable and handy to know.)

The 13th floor. I liked it better than Matrix because it touched upon the ethical issues dealing with AR and potentially sentient simulated beings.

12 Monkeys. Probably my favorite time travel movie, and the trouble with fate.

Grave of the Fireflies. Probably the saddest movie ever made, touching on so many aspects of human suffering.

Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run). It's been done so many times, but not as well as here.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "The Body". The show itself was basically mindless entertainment that I almost stopped watching, UNTIL this episode. I've never been thrown so much.

* IAM policies for deployed applications should be kept with those applications

* Use a feature like GitHub's CODEOWNERS to make sure that the service's IAM policies "belong" to your infosec team. Any PRs that attempt to change the IAM policy are then reviewed and approved by infosec.

* Set up monitoring that alerts when IAM policy is deployed that is too broad (i.e. wildcards).

* Eventually, recognize that many of your applications are pretty similar, and move to a smarter deployment model which maps a type of service to the correct IAM policy to be deployed with it. Then, what's stored in the service's code repository is which kind of application it is, and the IAM policies are factored out into a common repository owned by infosec.

Look, IAM isn't hard. Allow, deny, verbs, resources, it's all pretty simple. Not so different from firewall rules we've had for decades now. What's difficult is managing, not IAM rules specifically, but anything at scale. Managing security at scale is hard, because managing anything at scale is hard. What's more difficult is taking legacy setups which already exist at scale, are poorly secured because they weren't set up with the correct tooling to manage them at scale, and migrating them to a standards-based approach that makes it possible to manage them at scale.

What makes it difficult isn't the technology but the organizational politics that comes with it. If you build it too early, you're over-engineering and focusing on the wrong thing when there's more "important" stuff to focus on. If you build it too late, then you need to migrate stuff onto it, stuff which "just worked", whose stakeholders ascertain too much risk to the transition, in environments which generally undervalue security work. What makes it difficult is politics.

You might have missed my point in the original post, that I care about everyone getting these or similar benefits, not just me in a higher salaried positions or after years of staying in a company. It indirectly improves my own quality of life and affects cost of things.

Me making 150, 200 or 300k actually has fairly limited impact on my life. Everyone else getting the same benefits or not has, in a way not easily compensated by salary.
As one of those "admin/ops" people with experience of fixing terribly set up systems, a common issue is that users just can't tell the difference between systems that work insecurely and systems that work securely, but they will immediately notice if a system does not work because the security policy is too strict.

You get the best security when everyone is involved in the security design from the "ground up", but quite often there's not enough communication between the people developing some application, whose work may be valued by the number of features they ship and "velocity", and the operations side of things whose work is to provide the infrastructure for running the software, and to keep it running. At worst you just get some 3rd-party consultant to set up a thing somehow and then afterwards have to reverse-engineer it to figure out what the hell they did and how to prevent it from going up in flames immediately.

I'm not sure how it couldn't be a business. The App Store currently takes a 30% cut of every purchase. The business is running and developing an app store and we already know where its revenue would come from. It wouldn't be any different from Valve running Steam.

F-Droid is an open source alternative. Amazon has the Amazon Appstore. Samsung has the Galaxy Store. A more complete list here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Android_app_stores

Google has nothing to do with the curation of any of these alternative stores, since they're owned and run by completely separate third-parties and Android as currently designed doesn't prevent a user from installing arbitrary app packages (apk's).
Just for reference.

XNU powers every Mac, every iPhone, every i*...it’s the most important software on over 1B client machines.

Linux powers all Android devices. Most important software on over 3B machines.

SQLite is also on all those machines, and integrated in most software you mention.

Almost all the software you mention uses git for VC, including windows.

Thanks for the discussion though, the parent topic is one I’m curious about so good to hear different points of view.

Not as crazy as reading his biography as I did with HH. But I was amazed with the whole Zip2/Paypal thing like "that's the goal/plan"(make a lot of dineros). The space venture is great I'm glad he's one of the few people (with noticeable impact) that has a future-looking mind unlike the "why spend money on space" thing. I mean PayPal personally affected me, I was using it in stores when I was really poor selling my stuff/getting paid through PayPal and using my phone number by keypad to buy nuts/iced tea at home depot. Just surreal/weird.

But yeah I only really became aware of him because people kept comparing Tony Stark with Elon Musk haha... but at least Elon's stuff works... HH stuff worked too but seemed to be "impractical" or a one-off eg. the giant 88rpm helicopter.

Anyway, I watched the movie The Aviator over and over when I was younger, mostly the intro/mood. The color thing I think was well done indicating time... "Where are my god damn clouds!" haha. I was also super into aviation(models and trying to get into aero industry) until I ended up going to software instead.

If they isolate the memory that each part of the SoC can process, that means large amounts of data (for high definition video) have to be copied from one processor to another, so there's direct access. Then if the DSP's firmware has buffer overrun bugs, craft a suitable video and read/write whatever memory area you want to. (Not sure that this is what the bug is, but it's my guess).

I had a very similar experience growing up. Instead of Amiga, it was Atari. The common thread was that we both shared this very strange (at the time) interest in computers, he actually listened to me - a nobody kid, and he asked for absolutely nothing in return.

Given that experience, I can say that if you have the porch and the inclination, consider being that adult. You have no idea the good you can do.

Years ago I wrote a program to let various services run their course, query Cloudtrail for successful calls madero different AWS services, and attempt to find a minimal set of IAM permissions (not applicable for S3 at the time). The idea was to run an exhaustive test suite with expected allowed actions only and deny anything else. I believe AWS has a similar tool now for IAM but it’s not a problem that’ll be resolved satisfactorily for everyone given the combinatorics of IAM possible. Lateral movement in IAM roles and credentials is tough and even today not every action that IMO should be flagged is reported (IAM role assumption failures across accounts is silent when I checked early last year).

Perhaps there's some effect there, but this idea that more competitively successful cultures have healthier diets is difficult to reconcile with a lot of other memes around health food.

One also has to reckon with the fact that people's health needs were very different a couple hundred years ago. Once upon a time, the greatest health concern was getting enough nutrition. Also, when your life expectancy is 30, you probably don't give a damn that, if by some chance you live to see 70, all those preserved foods you used to get through the winter will end up having increased the chance that the thing that eventually kills you is stomach cancer.

As TFA's hand-wringing about sugar clearly indicates, though, we're just not playing the same game our ancestors did. The major worry nowadays that it is now, uniquely in history, possible for almost anyone's primary health concern to be that they're getting too much of a good thing.
