"30% is the same amount Google takes from the Play Store."

Except that developers don't need to use the App Store a sales/distribution mechanism.

It's like saying "In one country, there is only one car, and it is $50 000". In another country, the same car exists, and yes, there are other $50 000 cars ... but there are also any number of other choices.

And FYI even Google is engaging in anticompetitive practices.

Both platforms should be required to allow the installation of any app vendor point they want as the default app store.
The first example is incomplete: it forgets to clear and then check errno and/or check the returned value to +-HUGE_VAL! That'd probably slow down the strtod version a bit more.
As is sometimes noted, the Hindenburg is known as a gigantic disaster, but only a little over a third of the people on it died, which is probably better than you usually get from an airplane that explodes in a fireball at 600 feet.

So maybe they are looking for companies that are going to have extreme PR disasters, regardless of actual consequences.

Of configuration file formats, TOML is my favorite. It hits the right balance of power and simplicity, it's been able to handle my needs with minimal effort and fuss.

I tried Python's INI for configuration, but it was both too simple and too complex at the same time, very frustrating.

At this point in Tesla's history, how is it a fraud? It is manufacturing and selling cars. It is building batteries. I can see where some may think it is not living up to the hype/promise of returns, but they are actually making and selling product. Yet people are still claiming fraud?

A great point. They will ideally also have enough context, experience and intuition to 'individualize' comms - providing detail from an earlier briefing to the ux person while omitting the unnecessary technical details that are more relevant to the other team mate who is working on a security feature.

As a team lead, I do subject myself to a bit of a firehose outside my immediate team in the hopes of stumbling across little nuggets of useful info and context, but if I orchestrate communications within my org well enough, that's the only time it occurs.

It is so much easier to burnout when you are working from home. You take less breaks, spend less time shooting the breeze with coworkers, and almost every interaction is very formal. If you aren't careful you never get a chance to decompress between tasks. Also there is the temptation to constantly multitask. During long meetings it's easy to listen in while working on something else.

Finally there is a feeling of insecurity since you aren't being seen working. A lot of the stuff you do is invisible to everyone else if they can't see you working on it. Also since managers don't see you working they assign way more tasks than usual.

This is without the additional hours you may be working. Add that to the above and you are on an express train to burnout.

You can't get rid of corporate personhood. In the absence of that concept, one would have to sue each shareholder or executive of a corporation individually in order to bring any kind of liability suit. Allowing a corporation to be recognized as a single, fictional entity is a useful tool.

A better solution is making executives criminally liable for the actions of the company, the same way HIPAA holds executives and directors of covered entities personally liable for breaches.

NASA was reusing orbital 'upper stages' (although not boosters or ETs) for a few years. This little thing called a 'Space Shuttle.'
But now you’re writing code to generate config and code to verify your configs.
> Not yet. The boosters don't reach orbital velocity, that's the second stage.

Fair enough.

I suppose typing the whole thing out:

"SpaceX is the first company to launch a rocket to orbit and land its first stage"

is the most accurate way to phrase it. I was just trying to acknowledge companies like Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic, who have landed rockets or parts thereof before SpaceX.

The big difference, however, is that those efforts have been essentially economically meaningless, whereas SpaceX's efforts have been quite impactful.

> Surely GM has done their due diligence before throwing a couple of billions in?

I'm not sure there's any signal embedded in the knowledge that a company as incompetent as GM has done due diligence.
The fraud is not interesting.

The fact that big companies and Big CEO's are stupid and incompetent is the interesting thing.

Everyone who worked on this deal at GM should be fired along with the CEO.

I once worked at a 'Big Company' that thought about buying n Mp3 player. Everyone loved their CEO, their pitch, the box, product looked slick.

We were going to buy it. I took it home and tried it and it was garbage.

Literally our M&A team, execs, due diligence and nobody bothered to fing try the dam product* and use a little bit of common sense to ascertain whether it was 'quality' or not.

This was not fraud, and of a much smaller scale, but it's just incredible how big the 'blind spot' so many executives have.

Edit: I said executives were 'stupid' they generally are not. They just have gaping holes in their abilities, that enough ego doesn't allow them to even see themselves. It's understandable they don't want to look weak, but insane that they don't do background/deep checks.

If I were a CEO I would include 'product & IP validation' right up front as part of due diligence - not just by 'accredited people' (because you can't get a 'CA' in tech) but by people you trust.

There are a couple projects of differing scope:

- srsLTE (https://www.srslte.com/)

- OpenAirInterface (https://www.openairinterface.org/)

I've successfully used srsENB as a base station, largely to generate "model" LTE waveforms so that I could then decode them and verify my understanding. srsLTE is quite well written code-wise and is actively improving/growing. Seems to have a supportive single company and community behind it.

OpenAirInterface is more geared towards 5G research and is a lot more ad-hoc in terms of documentation and capabilities.

All because of an ICANN money grab. If it were really about 'having choice', applications wouldn't have cost so much.
I'm just happy that there's still a popular language around that lets me write how I think (or however _I_ think would make the code look the best), so I don't have to suffer through using languages that direct how I have to write every little thing.

Having both options is nice!
There’s always danger of “smelling your own farts” syndrome, though. Like the whole submarine thing: it didn’t work! No doubt that Musk is very smart and knowledgable in the areas he has excelled. But a few times now he seemed to have decided that this means he’s smart in a whole load of other areas too, without much evidence. Another example is almost any time he talks about AI.
It's a great question -- we actually address that specifically in the FAQ on our site: https://tinytalk.io/faq ("... another social network app? Wait but why?").

The basic emotion we're hoping to leave our users with is that feeling you get when a friend you haven't talked to in a while calls you out of the blue, just to say hi and see how you're doing. We wanted to lower the barrier for those types of exchanges, where in Tiny Talk, getting to that is as simple as pushing one button. In addition to making it dead simple, we keep the interactions low-risk (sort those of your contacts who are registered on Tiny Talk via a Tinder-style swipe workflow), and low-commitment (conversations are seven minutes - when time is up, it ends - no run on convos).

Concretely, the value prop we hope to deliver (which we've so far gotten good feedback on from our first few dozen users) is creating a fun, low-commitment way to have the sorts of social run-ins you might expect to have when walking around your neighborhood, hanging at the park, walking the isles of your local grocery store, which are more limited during COVID quarantine days. It's not about replacing those interactions, just giving people a bit more 1:1 connectedness when they might not necessarily have an agenda or reason to call one another, but would enjoy the run-in nevertheless.

If you do end up trying it out, would love to hear any feedback!
Not equivalent though, by a stretch.

That would be 'Tesla making a video of a working vehicle and showing it at Conf because they are not sure it will start!'

There are reasonable expectations of 'show', but showing something that literally does not work, as 'working' would be fraud.

The equivalent would be 'there is no software' so 'just make a video fabrication of software' and then show that at the conf.
"Hindenburg Research" is already an excellent name for a short seller, but in this case, they are short selling a company creating cars powered by hydrogen fuel cells. 2020 continues to be an incredibly on-the-nose year.

They're looking for companies that are fatally flawed but present otherwise. Kind of like the Hindenburg.

Hedge funds are not usually terribly concerned with marketing image. See, for example, Cerberus Capital Management, the former owner of Chrysler, which saw fit to name itself after a three-headed dog that guards the gates of Hell.

If someone made that claim, it wasn't me. It is not clear to me what your argument is or whom you're arguing with.

Is the claim that financial fraud or KYC laws are designed with worker protection in mind? That's funny, but I expect you're just making a specific form of "laws support predictable outcomes..." as a hook.
Agreed. If I feel violated or tracked, I'm far more likely to develop negative feelings for your product. If Facebook starts showing me more ads for your product right after I visited your site, you're definitely not getting my business.

They do. Advertising's whole purpose is to manipulate people into doing what companies want them to do. Not every company has your best interests in mind. Due to this inherent conflict of interest, ads should be viewed with healthy suspicion at best.

> This is a core feature of every ad platform I've seen and is absolutely not a violation of the GPDR.

I agree with you on this part. It is not a violation of GDPR on the ad platform side since you, as the data controller, are responsible to obtain a permission from the end-user. The ad platform is a data processor defined under GDPR. I am sure that the agreement between you and the ad platform is stating that you have a permission to use the email addresses for targeted advertising purposes and bear the full legal responsibility if not.

> since users are giving consent when they signup.

See Nextgrids comment. Yes, the GDPR admittedly lacks on the enforcement side and yes, I agree that this is a common practice, but that does not make it legal. Not for a data subject residing in the EU.
I haven't used any of those personally but these look like a good start, to say the least: https://vinepair.com/articles/homebrew-automation-systems/

The easiest and cheapest way to automate some of the process without adversely affecting quality, though perhaps is using malt extract instead of going through the entire mashing process. Malt extracts come in many varieties already (different grains, caramel, roasted etc.). So, unless the recipe requires something truly special you should be good to go.

Other than that, there isn't much you can do to streamline the brewing process itself (boiling - cooling - fermentation - bottling).
The community as a whole was pretty tight-knit so we didn't go that far down the security rabbit-hole. The initial proposal, though, only required a single backup and we did increase it to 3 to add a little more defense ;)

Presumably if only one "friend" defects and attempts to reset your account you will be notified by the other two friends sending you unrequested reset tokens out of the blue

3 is kinda an arbitrary number, chosen to strike a balance between security and convenience. It was decided that getting 3 people to collude to erode the trust of the community was harder than intercepting an email so the solution was accepted as adding some additional amount of security.

Honestly a bigger flaw in this scheme is if one or more of your friends is no longer active or has forgotten their own password and cyclically is relying on you for backup. You can hedge against this a bit by adding more backups and requiring only some critical mass of tokens, but this does also increase the attack surface.
What I remember is that the ping of death was extremely surprising in terms of the number of OSes affected, the ease of exploiting it, and the super-noticeable consequence of instantly crashing the target machine. And it came out at a time when there wasn't as much vulnerability research and very few extensively cross-platform vulnerabilities.

Also, with the ping of death, the only way to use it was to very noticeably crash systems -- not to secretly build a botnet or something, as might have been done with RCE vulnerabilities.
