> Patreon endorses its customers. Therefore they should police their platform as they see fit.

I'm sorry but that's what I've been saying, and you've been disagreeing with me.

> Amazon is completely different.

No, it's not.

Amazon Prime. They should police the content on there.

Amazon Marketplace. They should police the products that are sold on there. Blood diamonds should not be for sale on Amazon.

> If Amazon hires a Nazi as a warehouse worker

There are many things Amazon does. I've highlighted some where yes, Amazon should police themselves, and not support Nazis. You've highlighted one (laborers with Nazi views) where Amazon should maybe turn a blind eye.

What about the Direct of Communications? The VP of Human Resources? Is it okay if Amazon hires a self-avowed white supremacist, card-carrying member of the Nazi party, for a senior leadership position? I'd say they should avoid it. I might even boycott them if they kept someone like that in a senior leadership position.

> Amazon can decide to not let Nazis be in charge of press releases

Again, you're agreeing with me. Why do you pretend like you're not. You are 100% agreeing with me, and occasionally pointing out edge cases that I agree with.

> Don't you see the huge difference?

I agree there is a difference, and there are situations in which (as you agree), Amazon should police Nazi's out. That is my position, and you agree with it, and you've spent a great many words telling me I'm wrong.

Nazi behavior is immoral. Companies that support Nazis are wrong. Hiring a menial laborer who happens to be a Nazi, who doesn't bring it up at work, is probably fine. I hope they're exposed to people from other backgrounds, and stop being a fricking Nazi.
I'd argue they are smart. I shop a lot at Wal-mart, but rarely step in the store. I shop online, do their free grocery pickup and their in-store (non-grocery) pickup. The last one is technically walking into the store, but the non-grocery pickup is just inside the front door, so I'm not really going to the main part of the store. Plus, the times I do go into the store, they have a really nice automated checkout with a lot of stations. In my experience, Wal-mart automated checkouts are the smoothest and least likely to be broken compared to other stores I've used automated checkout at. Wal-mart does a great job getting my business without requiring me to actually interact with their employees and other customers or wait significant amounts of time for anything.
YouTube's killer feature is ability to INFLUENCE video discovery. There is no need for them ever, ever to care about being able to pay creators in a competitive way, when they can be paid (or simply needed) just to get the content out there and seen by an audience.

As long as they are YouTube they can capitalize on being the gatekeepers and there's no reason for them to care about becoming also the ticket-takers. There's also no need for them to try and kill Patreon to replace it: Patreon is taking pressure off of them and enabling them to enjoy the really useful part of their dominance, with no consequences to them. With Patreon out there, YouTube doesn't even need to care whether it seems like it pays creators or not.
The Great Conversation, as it's sometimes called.
Actually I still don't use it and keep using upvotes to favourite stories. I'm sorry for that

So do I, but I'm not going to apologize for it. Upvoting is the fastest and more convenient way to save a story as "read later", so it's what I do. If they would add the "favorite" link to the front-page items, I'd use it instead of upvoting.
that's great, thank you!
I have yet to see any panels come off or heard of any with such issues in real life, I think that must be a very tiny minority if so.

Where I work (in Norway) about 10% of the employees have teslas and there are not more issues than most fossils except for the Toyotas perhaps :)

Indeed I do have hundreds of favorites, going back till 2012. What you are looking at are just my favorited stories, but I have a lot more favorite comments. Funnily your comment kind of supports my point that the UX could be improved;-)

Also a disclaimer for those looking at my favorites: I use this feature much like a bookmarking service and for me a favorite means an endorsement only in the sense that I found the contribution interesting and valuable enough to be remembered.
I don't necessarily agree with what is said in the postings I favorite.
I prefer that the tool I use to be the middleman between me and the creator I support to not decide for ME who is acceptable or not for ME to support. But I understand your point, this discussion would have no end here in Hackernews. Let's agree to disagree :-)
I really really hope they don't remove favorite. I have a lot of comments and posts saved and return to read them from time to time.
The fossil fuel economy has enjoyed a psychological bubble: we can trash the atmosphere with whatever we want. Tesla was the ONLY automaker to look at the SCIENCE DENYING bubble and say: maybe we actually need to emit less GHG or our planet is doomed.

Everyone thought they were crazy, that it was a waste of money to emit less garbage into the air, and NO ONE stepped in to compete on EVs. Meanwhile, Tesla were simply following the science, which said we NEED EV's. As the science has progressed, many governments in Europe and some US states have massively pushed toward EV, and early adopters who are also looking at science and the performance of EVs say: I'm rich, Tesla works for me now.

Does Tesla have too high of a valuation? Maybe, but their EV's are years ahead of the competition, so maybe not. Maybe the fault here is with other automakers for completely ignoring EV's for the first decade of Tesla's domination.
So if this virus doesn't go away (as with influenza which kills thousands every year) and the predicted vaccines don't measure up, will Australia continue to arrest folk who post far from unreasonable opinions.

The study measured correlation of lockdown measures with number of reported cases, not positivity rate or death rate. Did they correct for number of tests done per capita in each state? I saw no indication that they did.

Just curious; I'm sure your encryption is on point.
It’s definitely overreach. I believe these will be changed over time. Laws change slowly, but on balance it’s a good thing. It’s more predictable and the landscape doesn’t change from admin to admin.

Yes? And?

I may have a backend service that is both internally and externally exposed, necessitating all requests to it be signed. I may have a backend service that has load limits that need to be fairly adhered to, and to do that I allow users only so many requests per time period. Even without load limits, I may want to know who is calling me, and forcing services to first request a token on behalf of themselves makes it more likely that each service will uniquely identify itself.

Really, if you trust the callers of your API enough to allow unsigned JWTs, you probably should trust them enough to not require anything (because copy/paste mistakes alone mean the data isn't valid, intention aside). If you can think of a reason why not having any identity information at all is problematic, you should probably force a signed JWT. The extra effort is negligible, it reduces potential risk if the use of the service changes and it starts getting 'untrusted' users, and it helps reduce "oops" mistakes upfront.

Howdy neighbor!

Here in Denmark, at the turn of the century, I took a 'classics' class in our equivalent to high school.

A bit of Plato and Socrates, a bit of ancient Greek / Roman architecture (different types of columns?), a smidgen of archeology review.

I imagine it was some kind of condensed and simplified remnant of the broad set of classics courses that would have been compulsory in 'high school' before the democratization of secondary education here (i.e. ~50 years ago our 'high school' was mostly populated by future academics and the children of the upper-middle classes).

>With that being said: I've been to countries with explicit bribery. The American way is better. Period.

I’ve been to (and lived in) countries where there’s pretty much neither - surely that’s where the bar should be?
Oh wow so it's exactly the opposite of my guess. Thank you for your explanation.

It now makes perfect sense to me that more massive objects wouldn't revolve quickly enough to create high frequency waves.
This is how path-tracing graphics engines like Blender's Cycles work. They fire rays from the camera and record whether they hit light sources, which allows simulating far fewer rays.
Syncing data is an easier problem than what the parent is trying to solve. RSync is one such solution.

If you want to run compute over big data, you replicate the database with a server you own and run compute on a copy of the data. Realistically that is what Amazon would have to do for you either way - they'd be running replicas you could compute over. And those replicas need to say in sync via db replication.

Secure competition over anonymized datasets is useful for security reasons, not efficiency reasons IMHO.

I would start by asking your team lead or manager why the team doesn't use video (particularly for longer meetings like sprint planning), as they may have more context. I expect the daily standup aims to be a fast and efficient status update without the distraction of folks getting their video sorted. There is probably a more appropriate team meeting for discussions, but if you don't have a suitable regular team meeting then discussing in a team Slack channel would be better than sidetracking the standup.

If you want to make the suggestion of adding video to a meeting, think about what the benefits might be for your team and whether there may be more suitable occasions to do so (eg sprint planning or a meeting later in the day). If your coworkers understand more of the Why behind your request they will hopefully be more willing to give this a try. They may also have valid reasons for not wanting to use video too often (camera shy, limited bandwidth, messy workspace, meeting is too early/late in their day, etc).

Another idea that might have less resistance versus changing an existing meeting would be to try starting something new (and optional), like a Tech Talk series. We have occasional internal Tech Talks, where the goal is short technical presentations or discussions (about half an hour) over one of our lunch breaks. Sometimes there are visiting presenters from other offices or companies. These sessions are great if you want to learn more about job-relevant tech that someone is learning, using, or building.

If your goals include fostering more social interaction and connection with the team, you could also try suggesting a format that more directly achieves that. For example, we started a Share & Learn series where anything is on-topic except work. The concept is to facilitate directed discussion about a personal passion topic. We plan for an hour (usually at the end of the day, once a month) with up to 3 speakers and around 15 minutes per speaker plus questions (delivery format up to the speaker). This has resulted in some great talks/demos/discussions which helped us learn more about our coworkers (and beekeeping, craft beer, technical interviews, video game mods, DNS, knots, ballet, ...). We also open those up to everyone in the office and encourage everyone to participate (irrespective of their department/org).

Some companies or teams may not be open to these sort of ideas, but circling back to your original question about trying to evaluate company culture before you accept a job... you can ask about these aspects in interviews as well. What does your team do to keep up with new tech? What regular social or tech sessions does the team have? Is there a budget for team lunches or social activities and how often do these happen?
It is not mandatory. Our school has similar system and kids spend that time playing. They dont just sit on chair. There is one teacher to supervise a group of kids, if there are too many kids the group gets split into two.

Absolutely, the question was only how frequently it happens. The bet was within the first 100 detections — with one side only saying they're rarer than that.
The Animatrix has quite a lot of details on that part, you might be interested to watch.
If you have enough mass (or energy[0]) in a region, it can’t be anything other than a black hole. The relationship between the size of that region and the mass-energy involved is, surprisingly, that the radius (not the volume) is directly proportional to the mass. It gets more complicated for black holes which spin or have a charge, but the basic idea is the same.

You can put claims (and other metadata) in their which you don't want the client to see.

Like you might not want to expose how exactly your internal permission system works to the client to make it harder to find places what did to bad configuration your JWT can be (ab)used to do thinks it shouldn't be able to. (I.e making security bugs harder to find from the outside).

Or it could expose internal IDs which might have some privacy concerns.

Or the internal IDs are not as security random and you might maybe be able to use that in some way to have a very round about kind of Oracle like attack.

Or this internal data could be used to make social engineering attacks easier.

....

Edit: or you encapsulate another internal only access token in there which the gateway server your website communicates with used to access the resources you are allowed to access and you want to make sure that a attacker who got access to the internal network somehow doesn't has access to any internal tokens without hijacking a service which has such tokens.

Also, “it’s not used frequently” is a really bad reason to remove a feature. Frequency of use is not a proxy for usefulness. I don’t use my backup software’s “restore” feature often but that doesn’t mean it should be removed.
