The emails are interesting. I’m surprised Greenwald’s editors give such detailed written feedback instead of, say, over the phone.

The language used offers some scope for compromise, but in general it’s pretty forthright.

In my experience the back and forth of an email chain thread will only further entrench positions rather than engender persuasiveness. We all know this, right? It’s nothing new and it happens all the time on HN comments too.

What’s odd — and maybe I show here how little I know about the people management side of running a commercial journalism org — is that the editor’s critique happens in writing.
Why is the user in the "terms and conditions" called a "tester"?

> surely we can agree that in recent years there has been expansion of what is considered abuse.

Indeed! See "Misogyny was par for the course". I understand that's not what you are getting at specifically, but the whole point is that just because it's been acceptable before doesn't mean that it's right.

> We don't all agree on the new rules, and CoCs are a method of making everyone follow them.

Exactly! The intent is to cause a change in behavior, and that's not going to happen if everybody has to sign off on it. Most people don't like having to change their behavior.

Again, CoC enforcement is not without its flaws, and policing interpersonal interaction is never going to be a hard and fast thing. But CoCs give everyone tools to nudge behavior away from what is objectively causing (subjective) distress.
Your question is way too broad to answer it in few sentences... Normally what I'd do is analyse the project as much as possible (goals, planned growth, market, etc) then build schema with each components challenged with few similar services. Then re-analyse it again from financial perspective and possible technical debt. Then ask to review it someone else to avoid my biases holding me from optimal solution.

From what I see nowadays, it's more like, hey we have a project... Let's do it with AWS it has a ton of cool features!

10s of thousands of emails, text messages, photos, and videos. Tens of thousands. To claim “there is nothing that links the computer to Biden” is disinformation.

DKIM validated by the way:

https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/hunter-dkim

In fact there is a massive amount of data which substantiates that it is Hunter Biden’s laptop, including extremely personal pictures and videos. We could say that it is either Hunter Biden’s actual laptop, or perhaps it is merely a clone of his laptop, down to the stickers on it (a “conspiracy theory”).

People on the email chain confirming that they did in fact receive those emails is evidence that the emails are genuine.

There is no evidence that I know of indicating any of the emails being doctored. If you want to make that claim, please cite a source.

John Paul Mac Isaac is a 44-year old Wilmington owner of “The Mac Shop”, located near a Biden family home. He was an Apple Genius from 2004-2010. There is no one disputing he works at the shop he owns, and while I have read some people claiming he is “legally blind” — what he actually said in the interview was that he has an eye condition, not that he was legally blind, and in any case that doesn’t mean he can’t see with corrective lenses. And he said he could not conclusively recognize Hunter Biden but that the sticker on the laptop and then ultimately it’s contents (e.g. thousands of sync’d iMessages)
identified Biden as it’s owner.

As to the FBI investigation, for years the anonymous claims of Justice Department officials have graced the front pages of every national newspaper with stories damaging to Trump. So I agree it’s important to qualify the statement with “anonymous” and “allegedly” while also certainly being newsworthy, and would otherwise obviously make the front page if it concerned Trump or Trump’s family.

I think your last paragraph gives up your position. The bigger story even than all the alleged corruption in the Biden family is how the media has circled the wagons on this and lied about it being somehow linked to Russia, a claim made entirely without a shred of evidence. This latest attack against Greenwald is just more of the same. The story has nothing to do with alt-right anything, it is widely reported on Fox News, has a surprising large amount of documentary evidence for this type of exposé and now has on the record sources directly substantiating the key findings with their own testimony as well as their own emails, text messages, and even recordings.

It’s time to pack up the disinformation campaign against this story and go home.
The US is a federation of states, and generally internal matters (like stopping the spread of a virus in your state) are not the purview of the executive branch. It's hard to blame the president when it is not equally bad across the board, for example if you have some cities like NYC which manage to contribute 10% of all COVID deaths in the US so far.

When it comes to things that typically are the purview of the executive branch, I think I remember the US being the first country in the G20 to restrict travel from China, among other things, and then the POTUS was called xenophobic by various people for pointing the finger where it deserved to be pointed (China, who was the very first to downplay the virus and pretend everything was hunky dory while it really wasn't).

I'm not a fan of Trump, but if you are placing the blame for coronavirus on him you are more than a little misguided. In all honesty, watching Democrats use people who died of COVID as political props by trying to pin their deaths on Trump is one of the shittiest things I've seen this year, and it's been a crap year.
I'm curious, why do you think having emotional tools is a "privilege"? I might be wrong in my understanding of the term, but isn't it more of a right than a privilege?
Adding on here, I think you can make a pretty good argument that California does capitalism better than anyone else in the world. Just within a few miles of each other, you have Apple, Google, Facebook, Tesla, Nvidia, Adobe, PayPal, Netflix, Intel, Oracle, and Salesforce. All worth >$150B.
Ugh, I get flashbacks to one of my astronomy intro courses and having to memorize conversion formulas between horizontal (azimuth/altitude), equatorial (RA or hour angle/declination), and ecliptic (ecliptic long/lat) coordinate systems. Fun times.
let me clarify -
Let's call the startup an "Aggregator" - you only pay monthly to this middle man aka "aggregator" but you can watch any of these services during anytime i.e any time in a year as long as you are an active user. The "Aggregator" would buy pool of accounts on their users behalf. Some more breakdown -

For this discussion - let's say there are total of 10m users for these services but they all would never be online at the same time. So, the aggregator can buy 5m Netflix accounts, 1m Apple, 1m hulu, 2m HBO, and so on.

I think it's a very fragile idea. Once Netflix, and the gang would figure out about the "Aggregator", they might start blocking it. There are ways to handle that but how long are you going to play this cat and mouse game?

What's interesting to me about this is how people focus on the 'collection' aspect. But the collection of digital video of people in public spaces with minor (at best) notification (e.g. "smile you're on camera" stickers) has been going on for decades. There's nothing new there at all. So purely from the perspective of collecting data, it seems to me to be well within the purview of established commercial behavior, what they were doing.

The novelty here is not the collection, it's the analysis. And that makes for a kind of interesting legal distinction that hasn't been made in any other domain, as far as I know. A distinction whereby the collection is legal, the retention is legal, but certain types of analysis may not be.

I suspect the trend is due to less face to face social interaction, especially fewer conversations. When we converse with other people face to face, their expressions give us additional clues to their intent, which helps boost our learning rate of vocabulary and expression skills.

If you were to have digital natives write the tests instead of those of us from before the internet, they results would likely be inverted. There has been a permanent (unless the net goes away) shift in the way people receive information and store it, there is no need to have long term storage of facts in one's head... google is always there.

There was an interesting comment on /. years ago I can still recall... but young people would have to have it stored in a personal information store to be able to do the same thing.

It took me WEEKS to find it again, even with strong google-fu... but the kid with the PIM would have it (unless of course it got censored into the memory hole).

IQ tests don't measure IQ, they are a reductionist fantasy.
Ask HN: Reporting Security Vulnerabilities to Developers
Curious on how most developers/engineers receive reported security issues in their code, service or infrastructure today? What you do and dont like about the process? What would be ideal view of seeing such submissions?

For security teams what are some pain points of being able to submit security related bugs to developers. What would be your ideal way to communicate to developers?
That those business are concentrated in such a small area would seem to suggest it's not because of California, but in spite of it. Concentration begets concentration, so when you have a preexisting concentration of tech companies, that concentration will continue almost regardless of the local or statewide political environment.

There is the thing itself and there is the history and context of the thing, and they are both important. We try to keep them together, but the connection is often fragile.

One example: a product and its price. The price roughly summarizes information about how it was made and how valuable people think it is, which are not attributes of the thing itself and often can’t be deduced from it. In some cases we physically attach a label, the price tag, to keep track. In other cases we attach a lot more info.

Another example: a photo and information about when and where it was taken. For a photo to serve as evidence we need a reliable history. In court, this is the chain of custody. Too often on the Internet, we pretend that having the photo is proof enough, but without knowing its history, it could be a fake.
Your a jack of all trades. Pick one trade and try to sell. Keep repeating with different skills until success. Very few need all of your skills but as a jack of all trade you get in with one skill and advance with another.
> There's plenty to look at in unfair media influence this story just wasn't it.

I disagree. However, with the rest of what you've said I'd say the truth lies somewhere in between. When pressure is brought to bear, one will find things whether they're there or not, for reasons of appeasement. This is pure opinion of mine, though, and I respect anyone's right to disagree.

Hunter-Dkim
This project validates that the "smoking gun" email from that NYPost story actually was a valid email sent 6 years ago. We know this because GMail cryptographically signed it with "DKIM".
Great concept, are you going to launch it on Product Hunt?
With open source its pretty easy. You just file an issue or submit a PR.

With proprietary software its much more difficult to get the company's attention. So a lot of people will give a time frame where if the security flaw isn't fixed they will publicly disclose the vulnerability, thus forcing the company's hand.
...They know this. They aren't stupid (a non-negligible portion at least)

The people they can easily pander to don't, for various reasons. Public education has been widely dismantled, especially in areas hit by industrial and white flight. Hookworm/malnutrition/lead poisoning are all also legitimately a hell of a fuckin drug.

The biggest charade of the past 50 or so years has also been convincing a decent portion of the U.S. that California is some democratic/liberal orgy of a state. It's not. California has historically had and still does have a large republican presence.

Sheer ignorance along with cognitive dissonance makes grifting easy as hell.
Seems like your arguing that Silicon Valley does capitalism better then anywhere else in the world. If it were a California thing then you would expect similar results in more than one city within the state.

I hesitate to state that Ruby is making a comeback, because I don't think it ever really faded (isrubydead.com ;-) )…but it definitely feels like the momentum is picking up. 2021 is going to be amazing.

I myself am furiously working on making Bridgetown one of the world's great static site generators.

Honestly, there's never been a better time to be a Rubyist than right now.

from the linked article neither abc nor news ltd:

Sure, I'm so eager to hear you regurgitate whatever the NYT consensus is.

Greenwald was on the right side of history regarding the Snowden revelations... but your own posts from that era, however, have not aged well.
To be honest, for some shows, I prefer a weekly release schedule over release of everything at once. It gives you a chance to discuss an episode with friends and speculate about what will happen next.

It's sad I had to scour Twitter and replies here to find this on the third page.

The irony of HN upvoting comments that do the same op-ed ranting on their own issues and haven't seem to have thought critically about the article in question or the emails Greenwald himself leaked (which paints the publishing story quite differently from his version of it) is wild but not unexpected.

Is it, really? Not OP but I think there is a lot of room for alternative business models that doesn't have to depend on copyright. It's just that copyright already taken a hold on most people's mind so they default to it.
That “weirdness” is just scientific notation, which the Ryu implementation always emits. It is “superficial” in the sense that it’s separate from the core algorithm. When I adapted it for C++17 charconv in MSVC, I implemented fixed, general, and “plain shortest” notation, which will print 0.3 there. (General notation follows C printf %g’s rules for switching between fixed and scientific; “plain shortest” notation selects the one that’s fewer characters, tiebreaking to prefer fixed).
They stopped a representation that allowed them to identify that the same person visited again. That’s an id number. They guessed age and gender.
Excellent reporting, I think.

It’s offering some fascinating insight into Foxconn internals where warring fiefdoms of business units mean insane amounts of wasted human effort (not that that is unique to Foxconn).

That also offers an interesting contrast to the recent post on Apple internal organization of the business into functional lines instead of product units (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24903764)
Trump went into politics a rich man. Biden become rich while being in Politics.

The difference in the accusations is something like this:
"Biden monetized the vice presidency, for personal gain. He set up a money laundering operation, that funnelled money from foreign entities back to his family, through deals his crack head son was making."

His son was making 50k/month from a power energy company in Ukraine, that he had no prior experience in.

This is a lot different than hiring your own kids to work for you in your own administration, as Trump did.

Lots of people here are still holding on to "emails" being fake. Maybe you have heard the term, "A lie is 3 questions deep". The problem with the emails are fake theory, is that
that emails have these snippets of personal information, that have been collaborated, along with very incriminating selfie photos of Hunter doing crack and prostitutes in hotel rooms. Both would be incredibly difficult to fake because they are so mundane, and intimate, as no one would have the imagination to fake them.

Right, the only technical sense in which SHA-3 is simply "a straight improvement on" SHA-2 is resistance to length extension, but you can have that with SHA-512/256 (yes that's the name of one SHA-2 family member, if you didn't already know that, and you were previously confident SHA-3 is what you needed, time to do some reading). In a non-technical sense to be sure 3 is a bigger number than 2 but that's a terrible reason to do anything.

Keccak's sponge construction is novel, it has some cool features compared to Merkle–Damgård but when SHA-3 was standardised we had very little experience with this construction. Now, maybe we lucked out and these are the perfect parameters, not too slow, not too weak. But most likely we went too far in one direction and so hence "Maybe Skip SHA-3"

The point of op-eds is they reflect a range of views the editors think is interesting, varied or whatever. Op-eds are still a matter of editorial decisions - obviously, papers don't just publish anything by anyone.

Maybe this is breaching the agree Greenwald had with the editor(s). But independent op-eds able to say whatever they want isn't a principle of journalistic integrity. Questions of that sort revolve around whether you lie or misdirect or run paid articles and so-forth. That you refuse to run an op-ed right when your writer really want it published is a wholly different question, one clearly about the paper having indeed evolved to a left-liberal position while Greenwald maintains his conservative/Libertarian principles - ie, the argument is political.
