I was an early Gmail SRE so I was able to circumvent the restrictions. It was a bad idea it turns out. For a project I also created "spam@gmail.com" and caused a production outage due to the volume of mail it got forwarded. =)

But yes your right, 6 characters is the minimum of "open" gmail accounts. I know of at least a dozen 2 character accounts created by insiders though.
It's been quite a bit faster than Vim, but perhaps Vim has caught up. I haven't checked it out in a while. Neovim supported asynchronous updates well before Vim, so also much more responsive until recently.

In any case my config is compatible with both and I can use them interchangeably.
That is one of the most frustrating things about shopping in America: that taxes are always broken out separately, requiring extensive mental math. The purpose is, as you suggest, forcing people to confront the reality of taxes. But confronting that reality is not making us rise up against sales taxes, so... include the tax in the marked price! /petpeeve
Gave more clarification on this in a reply to parent comment.
Thanks! The benefits we provide are session security and convenience (not having to know or think about tokens and session management).

We don't use normal refresh tokens. We use one time use refresh tokens. This allows to detect token theft in a reliable way for long lived sessions (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-browser-based-a...).

Also, OAuth is different to session management in that OAuth is for delegation purposes, whilst "a session" can be used to maintain authentication between your own frontend and backend.

In terms of revocation of sessions, our SDK provides functions that can be used to revoke sessions. Soon, we will be making a dashboard that can be used to do the same (and other things)
This is good feedback, thank you. I'll add the date at the top of the article in the article text from now on, and should be able to go back and update old articles. As for whitespace, it's the CMS and template. I am able to create projects like these because I can leverage a CMS (Squarespace here). My projects usually get picked up/noticed when they are live, no one usually looks at my older stuff. Cheers!
You say "they" like this isn't something that every single person in the world does constantly -- nobody is immune to it. Confirmation bias is just a derogatory term for people having priors.
There are important lessons in the cases you've mentioned. Prohibition and the war on drugs both conclusively prove that banning them outright is a disastrously idiotic idea with devastating social consequences, far exceeding the harm caused by the substances. The same is sometimes argued against pandemic mitigation measures, but I find that these arguments usually don't appreciate the exponential growth aspect of the virus.
Redshift is an onpremise piece of software that was converted into a cloud platform (acquired by AWS). Snowflake was built from day 1 as a cloud platform with awesome big data frameworks as its internal architecture. Its very hard for Redshift to rearchitect itself in the way Snowflake was designed from the start because they need to continue supporting existing instances and create an entirely new product.
See my comment above.. It is, I was a Gmail SRE that could circumvent the restrictions on that. =)
Have you seen Zoom’s stock price? Wall Street don’t give a shit about security unless the company goes under due to a massive fine.

Let’s accept the fact that US govt doesn’t give a shit about little privacy/security like this. EU will sometimes strike a big hammer but even that is sporadic.

Zoom has built momentum on “dark growth hacks” and they’re reaping the rewards. This is standard Silicon Valley.

"A…depressingly mountainous amount of the self-identified cyberpunk fiction I see now is stuck firmly in the 1980s. It's not new, fresh, or original. It's paint-by-numbers Imitation Gibson.

You still have a single, centralized mailing list server. That's what you should be comparing to GitHub -- not the individual mail servers for each user.

If your mailing list server goes down, no one can use the mailing list. Taking it a step further, if its data is lost, everyone has to re-subscribe.

On top of that, you have a mailing list archive. If that's down, or not operating, you've made thing even less open, because now any non-subscribers can't even read what's going on, and if they do subscribe, they only get to see new messages. Existing long-time subscribers have an archive, sure, but it's very possible no one user has a complete archive, and it's a certainty that most users don't.

Someone can run a redundant mailing list archive server, but then someone can also mirror the GitHub repository, PRs and issues.

---

That said, the mailing list server and archive are likely simpler to run, less likely to go down, and easier to move somewhere else.

Transferring from github.com to something else is going to be painful, and I suspect most FOSS authors simply don't think about it or see the ease and benefits of using it as outweighing the risk. Companies should look at that risk much more closely, but ultimately it's the same situation as if they decide not to have fire insurance: if their building burns down, they're SOL, but that was the decision they made.
The roaring 20s are back, baby!
Figured I might as well mention it in case AMD was doing something totally wild, but I would agree that using the register file sounds likely :) I wonder how they manage the pressure on it between renaming and memory mirroring…
You're presenting this as if investors have no choice in the matter. As far as I know, there is 401k transparency meaning that investors know what their money is invested in.

On top of that, all companies I've worked for in the USA allowed me to choose exactly how and where my money will be invested.

Nothing described by the article you posted lets me think that this will be no longer the case.
There is no remote option for location, are positions remote during the pandemic?
> Not to mention that EU governments don't see tech companies as strategic assets, unlike the US/China.

Maybe that was once true, but it certainly isn't true today.
Feels like the big difference is people threw money at tech stocks last time in a bout of speculation, they're throwing money at them this time in a flight to safety.
Vigilantes spawn in place of formal enforcement of justice. Given that Bitcoin is designed with that void in mind it was inevitable.
Atleast you were able to read the article after 5 seconds. This is what I get.

He worked for Redis Labs for many years. I'm sure they have a good understanding.

To be honest, your comment reads as if you think building a company such as Redis Labs is easy. Even with a tool like Redis freely available, it's hard and risky.

I understand the sentiment better with eg Amazon taking some open source, putting a sticker on it, and using their market dominance to extract free money from it. But that's not what Redis Labs is at all.
> I'm not sure if that is clear to outsiders

Depends a bit on the outsider, I think. Also to which extend they might be a product of their own country's propaganda.

To me it certainly is clear, even from people I personally know. However, I do think that it might be only of limited relevance. That is, if these reasonable people have virtually no chance to bring about any substantial change in whatever system or collective actually governs/controls the USA, then how much does it really matter?

That said, I do not want to sound too harsh on the USA, especially its individual citizens. The country is no doubt going through a rather precarious development. It essentially shows all the hallmarks of almost every empire before it, right when those were on the brink of their collapse.

While social media tycoons, and a host of even far more shady companies and agencies, certainly make the radicalization and politicization of practically everything far worse than necessary, with mostly cynical/selfish goals, it might be that they are mostly just riding an already unstoppable wave, that would be there with or without them stirring things up even more.

To me, they are no doubt criminal enterprises either way, but the USA might soon have far more pressing problems on their hands than going after such companies. Which might be what some of these companies actually count on. Let's hope it turns out to be misguided arrogance, cynicism and hubris on their part.
It is worth understanding that the European stock market, bar the UK and possibly Sweden, isn't like the US. Most companies finance themselves through banks. Whilst Europe as an economic unit is larger than the US, capital markets are still basically non-existent (bar the efforts of the ECB to throw cash at anyone who raises money from capital markets).

Also, the rise of tech stocks is significant not only relative to other economies but relative to other large stocks in the US. The S&P500 is more concentrated than it has ever been and is pretty close to what you see in emerging markets (where the top 5 or so stocks make up a huge chunk of the total index).
They have, but why wasn't that growth priced in?
Indeed, we have no strong data on that, because it literally can not yet exist, and will not for many years

But the initial reports of both serious effects to blood, circulatory, lung, organ, and peripheral & central nervous system are real cause for concern, as are teh sufficient numbers of extended illnesses, enough that it already has a name - "Covid long haulers", and support forums.

Show HN: Tool for Automating SQL Transforms
Hey everyone this is Michael and Daniel from the structure.rest team. We built structure as an alternative to the command line based tools that currently exist for building DAGs for your data warehouse.

With command line based tools, you have to edit and explore in a sql editor, paste that into a code editor, use the command line tool and use a web browser to view your data catalog. And then you have to go back and forth constantly between all these tools and do this over and over again for the hundreds of models in your DAG.

Instead, we’ve built an open source editor + command line utility that integrates all of this into a single integrated experience. We feel that better tools lead to better data analysis which helps organizations make better data driven decisions

Here’s a video that shows how intuitive the structure editor is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hskhBTyg258

Come check us out at www.structure.rest and join our slack (https://join.slack.com/t/structuresupport/shared_invite/zt-ddx04ho4-_q43i5o3zQ9jv00qx~dx8A) . Both the editor and command line utility are open source and the editor downloads as an app for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Our command line tool makes it easy to run your DAG as part of CI/CD.

We currently support snowflake (https://www.snowflake.com/), but we are looking forward to supporting other platforms. Let us know if there is a platform you would like us to support next.
I could see that backfiring pretty badly. Just think of all the politicians who want to regulate (or even try to ban citizens from using Bitcoin) being able to say it's chock full of 'Hate Speech'.
My offroad club has switched from CB to 2m. It really was not a challenge to convince people once they saw/heard the difference between AM and FM and the increased safety factor. Biggest hurdle was getting everyone licensed but the practice tests online make it pretty simple now.

I think the future of HAM is finding practical uses for it that the average joe can take advantage of. Hikers, campers etc can buy a $40 radio on amazon now and have a great backup for when they are out of cell service.
Is this really common to have a geo replicated redis. My impression was the geo replication is usually done at db level not at cache.
I'm confused because back when I had a 401(k) I managed it and chose what investments the money went into. So I don't see how that money would magically flow into private equity? Unless they mean mutual funds could start investing in private equity? But this would show up in the prospectus would it not? Or are they just arguing that many Americans are completely ignorant and oblivious to what their 401(k) is invested in and would accept private equity investments because they blindly follow advice?
I'm not sure where you're living and working where people are being more productive the past several months, but it hasn't been something I've seen.

Risk is best thought of in terms of expected value rather than probability alone.

There's a non-zero but low probability of you spreading a virus you don't know you have as long as you're following good practices, and the severity of doing so seems relatively minor (99% of people you infect will have minor symptoms. Not to say that's ok, but it is normal for people to get sick occasionally). A low probability multiplied with a relatively minor severity gives you a very small number.

On the other hand, if you're already finding yourself socially deprived, the probability of suffering severe effects from it is high, perhaps even approaching 1. The severity for some people could also be very bad: declining health, ruined relationships, perhaps even suicide. A high probability multiplied with a high severity gives you a very large number.

It's hard to quantify and everyone is different. The point is, it's better for someone to go socialize when they need to rather than go insane, and it can be a perfectly reasonable decision.
Seems to me that that the end of your comment supports the parent commenter's point, rather than showing the irrelevance of deepfakes for the soundness of public opinion — that people are so easily and constantly deluded now gives little reason to hope for a discerning public in the face of stronger fakery

That's a good point. Sorry to hear that. I have the 5th gen which has a USB-C power port and another USB-C and two other USBs. The USB-C power definitely wiggles a lot when it's plugged which makes me concerned though I haven't had a problem.

Man, if only there were some sort of organization that we could create and give immense power, capital, and reach to organize such efforts...
Why does it have to be a zero sum game? Frankly, that’s the sort of gate-keeping that keeps people away from trying or adopting OSS.

Someone can support and advocate for a software development model and for the freedoms and opportunities that can allow for without having to go all-in and ensure that every piece of software they buy, use, or support follows that same model.

A really great way discourage people from advocating for OSS is to harangue them for daring to use Photoshop in lieu of Gimp.

Obviously it’s really convenient and rewarding when best-in class products are also OSS, but that’s not the world we live in.

It strikes me as a really shitty message to say that the only way you can advocate or support something is to go all-in on the model. If the goal is to get more people using and adopting and developing with open tools, yelling at them for not being the pinnacle of “purity” sure seems like a strange way to do it.

If someone calls themselves a “free software advocate,” I’ll agree that that implies a much stronger dogma to a specific set of licenses — but that’s an ideological movement that is materially different from OSS.
Not sure why you were downvoted. These two countries have incredibly brutal dictatorships - far worse than countries we usually criticize (Iran, etc). I'm more familiar with Uzbekistan, where a decade ago there were a number of cases of people dying in prison because of burns from boiling water being thrown on them. Islam is practically outlawed - people have been put in prison for sporting a religious beard. When I was in grad school, there was an Uzbek student who was friends with a local Muslim student. When he was returning to Uzbekistan, he told his friend never to use Islamic phrases (greetings, etc) in emails to him as those could land him in prison.

Very controlling of outside journalists. Almost no outside journalist was allowed on site to report on the Andijan massacre, for example.[1]

I recall when Ahmadinejad came to Columbia to speak, the university president (Bollinger) went out of his way to blast him for his policies. Yet just the day before the Turkmenistan president spoke, and Bollinger also opened for his speech, and praised him. I was aghast.

What kind of CPU are you using?

For me, it loads instantly over Wifi-N. That's with JavaScript disabled, though, as per default.

With JavaScript enabled, it still loads near-instantaneously, with the exception of the big image at the top. I heard my CPU fan spin up for a second or two, then the image eventually appeared. Nice.

This is with a 4770K.
With all this free money floating around, it feels nice that some of it landed on good people.

That said, being overcapitalized is perniciously corrupting. I saw first hand what happens when there's too much money floating inside a company. Malinvestment is an issue at the company level just as much as at the macroeconomic level.

Management starts acting like trust fund kids, forgetting that, one day, the money might run out, and making a profit is the only sustainable way to run a company.
I have been meaning to get into the hobby but without some basic equipment I havent even bothered to start. Also unsure about good resources to learn. I have heard of SDR but I am unsure how those work properly. Given the current state of things it might be worthwhile to pick it up sooner rather than later.
The issue is not repeatability but the fact that cooling is inadequate for the TDP, and CPU (reportedly?) runs in thermal throttled modes.

Armchairers' consensus is Apple botched design and CPU is overheating. Idk. Maybe it's intended design as a form of cTDP.
Your account being attacked is also a risk for them, so they can decide if they want the burden of customers not willing to help protect them.
Huh.

I was imagining an organization which from the outset planned to be very permissive in what they eventually allowed, with initial restrictions just being in order to cultivate a desirable community to start with, but now that you mention it, perhaps the motivation behind the policies don’t matter so much as the policies themselves. Good point.

That being said, I don’t imagine that TikTok will become quite as permissive in the end as I was imagining?
Yeah, I should have said -600, -700, -800, -900 instead of -6, -7, -8, -9.

For some reason I got that naming convention mixed up, and forgot that the -800 was NG while -8 was MAX.

Another aspect of the absent tech boom in Europe is the structure of the public markets, they're basically bullshit compared to what happens in the US.

In the case of growth companies, it's definitely not a talent thing, the American financial system has a well developed pipeline for growing ideas and providing endless access to capital. Europe simply doesn't have that. We don't even have consolidated pricing for our stock markets, even after many decades under the EU, something the US has had since 1976. It's a joke, and no surprise all eyes are on and money flows into the US for speculative investment

And Microsoft multiplied their profits a few times between 2000 and 2010 while their stock dropped 75%.

Valuations are important. Valuations are affected by the monetary policy/liquidity cycle. And Google's valuation is growing faster than any rational measure of economic value.
Also, we have an annoying amount of red tape from both the UK itself and, at least for the immediate future, the EU. It gets in the way of starting a business, but worse, it gets in the way of taking significant steps necessary to grow a new business like taking on your first employees.

If you've got months or years of runway from external funding, that's irritating but not a big deal. You hire someone to deal with it and get on with more important things.

However, if you're bootstrapped and at first it's just three friends working out of someone's garage or a family business with an office in the dining room, that red tape can be a significant overhead that holds your business back from taking on staff and dedicated facilities and so on.

Given this culture, it's hardly surprising that a lot of UK start-ups with ambitions of hockey stick curves look to the US for support. The alternative is fighting your way out of being a lifestyle business for some number of years, at the same time as trying to do whatever it is you do that actually has value.
