These sort of documents are usually necessary when bringing in devices with memory in them into secure areas. Security likes to know what is in a device and if there is any special procedure that needs to happen to wipe any non-volatile memory. If there's no way to zero out or replace any memory that may have stored sensitive data, the device cannot leave the area.
warehouse style ‘pick to light’ systems

Seriously, watching one person pick one order from retail shelves is kind of aggravstingly inefficient, when (and this is probably already starting to happen) they could have everything picked in bulk with an optimized path through the shelves for a batch of orders, then put-to-light each order.

Some Thoughts on the Principal Role – Marginally Interesting by Mikio L. Braun
Nothing wrong. They'd have to pay taxes. That would be a bummer for most organizations.
The author makes a typical assumption: that people actually want things to be better. Quite often people make their situation worse despite being made aware of the consequences. On some level, even if they can't/won't articulate it, that's what they want.

As I've gotten older (currently in my early 30s), my experience has been that most people are resentful and jealous under the surface, and they want to take out that resentment and jealousy on the world in some manner. Particularly in hard-hit and neglected areas of the country where 99% of the motivated and capable people who might have been inclined to help your optimistic vision moved out long ago.

That doesn't mean there's nothing to be done or that every neglected suburb/small town is irredeemable, but I'd be careful not to apply social optimism too generally. No amount of optimism or energy will allow you to grow crops in a salted field, you can only directly help those who want to be helped. Spend your energy where it's most productive.

That said the author is correct in that leading by example, not being a dick about it, and fixing peoples' problems is about the only tool available with any hope of earning the respect of those who disagree with you. So if you have the time, money, skill and energy it's worth at least a few tries before declaring an area beyond repair. :)
Mikio Braun wrote an excellent post that I'd share with Senior ICs who try to understand how to increase their influence in the organization, leveling up to Staff/Principal level: "The notion of autonomy can also be misunderstood. It does not mean that you talk to nobody and come up with solutions by yourself and then push those through. Ideally, you will be talking with lots of people and get as much interaction and help to solve problems as possible. There are three main reasons for why you shouldn’t solve problems alone: By involving others you get their perspective and a fuller picture of what you need to consider. You give others the chance to work with you and (hopefully) learn. And finally, involving people in creating a solution goes a long way towards getting their buy-in."
> I'm unable to find measurements. I mean, the amount of code duplication is not an optimization parameter, the amount of Mb/s of HTTP parsed is.

> goto jumping between branches is a bad thing from the point of view of maintainability.

In our parser we have DSL for the state machine, so we encode which state the machine should go. The HTTP parser is one of the most updated piece of a web accelerator code and we don't struggle on the FSM - every developer in our team updates the code, even newcomers.
Intuition is definitely subjective, and that is ok. I do respect different intuitions while trying to understand them. And the best thing for that is doing what you did, which is provide a more clear example.

Unfortunately, the example makes it more clear to me that probability differences are linear.

Your "difference of log-odds" function is a qualitative function that you've constructed to operate on probabilities. All you've done is take the log of numbers and compare them, and of course you're going to take on the properties of logarithms themselves: specifically that the difference between log(x2) and log(x1) decreases as x2 and x1 increase in value. That's just how logarithms work.

This says nothing about the relationship between probabilities.

You can't just apply any operation on any values and draw conclusions about it with understanding the interpretations of the values. Probabilities are likelihoods, not raw quantities. So the domain of likelihood has to be considered when analyzing probability values.

In the domain of likelihood, when probabilities are independent (i.e. flipping a coin once does not influence the next coin flip) you can interpret differences in probability as linear.
That is not what any of those words mean at all. Socializing costs means an externality to bear costs to those not a party to the transaction and their drivers are party to tbe transaction.

Stealing by making vehicle owners pay the cost of their vehicles, maintenance, and the drop of value over time? Uber is not entropy itself. Just how would you get that concept?

> I lived without ANY freedoms. Taken away by the (communist) government

Ah yes, because there are exactly two possible modes of living in this world: communism and corporate cronyism called FREEDOM in the US.

Meanwhile there are charity orgnizations that used to go to the poorest regions in Africa to provide free healthcare. And then they stopped doing that and started doing that in the US. Because FREEDOM.
I had honestly forgotten about this since it's been ongoing for so long. Some of the more notorious details of the case:

The lengthy legal saga also saw the initial search warrant was challenged in court, which led to the discovery of unlawful spying on Dotcom by the Government Communications Security Bureau in 2013.

In 2017, police were also believed to have paid Dotcom a six-figure sum in a private settlement over alleged unreasonable force.

In 2018, Dotcom also tried and failed to have former US President Barack Obama served with a subpoena to force him to give evidence in the High Court over a damages claim for Megaupload.

I honestly thought after they found unlawful spying that would've been the end of the case. I guess I was a bit naive.
> Perhaps use school records with documented evidence of bullying by a third party or something.

That's actually less likely to be an accurate source, because it depends on the school documenting everything, which to be quite honest, a lot of schools do not do -- I remember when I was bullied it was a literal uphill battle with the school to get them to recognize it in the first place, let alone do anything about it.

How much of the bullying you saw in school, was documented by a third party? I would wager zero, but I'm up for being surprised.

Psychology has a bag of tools, questionnaires are useful tools that fit a specific purpose and objective. They are relatively simple to create, perform, and get a lot of reasonably accurate data from them.

And after all, what they're trying to assess here is the impact of bullying, so it doesn't actually matter what the exact bullying act is, in this case. They're simply trying to find a causal link between being bullied and negative behaviour.

I think it's always amusing when people on hacker news think they know more about fields than, you know, people who have spent decades studying and working in that field. It says a lot about this website that it attracts folk who have no respect for other professions.

This. I've tried credit unions and big banks. I really wanted to like the credit unions, but their general level of operational competence is a small fraction of the big banks.

Everything takes much longer and major hassles are far more frequent. They have automated little to none of their operations. They are so small that their tiny staff has never had to deal with your particular issue before, and doesn't know what to do about it.

The big banks, on the other hand, deal with other versions of your problem dozens to hundreds of times a day, and have evolved a very high degree of efficiency in handling your case.

> Either they normalize the behavior, and perpetuate the cycle against their spouses and own children

The "cycle of abuse" refers to the different repeating stages an abuse victim and abuser go through together in an abusive relationship[1]. It does not refer to victims of abuse going on to further abuse others or their abuser.

This is something that research also backs up: victims of abuse are no more likely to turn around abuse others than people who did not experience abuse.

It's an important distinction because the popular conception of what the "cycle of abuse" entails matches yours. That misconception leads to outcomes where victims of abuse are painted as abusers when they stand up for themselves or attempt to escape the abuse, and some are even prosecuted for domestic abuse after doing so, or after seeking help from law enforcement.

When I first played around compiling the linux kernel, I found that most of it is like a suburban garage, with a kayak and a brake bleeder and a hoe and golf clubs.

Except the kernel puts the suburban garage to shame.

My kernel config shows:

CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y
CONFIG_BAYCOM_SER_FDX=m (from AX.25 network device drivers)
CONFIG_CAN_SJA1000=m (from CAN device drivers)
CONFIG_NFC_MRVL=m (from Near Field Communication (NFC) devices)

after a while I just scroll faster and faster zooming past:

CONFIG_VMWARE_BALLOON=m
CONFIG_HABANA_AI=m
CONFIG_MACINTOSH_DRIVERS=y
CONFIG_HAPPYMEAL=m

...and loadable module support for 4 heart rate monitors, 18 inertial measurement units and 18 magnetometer sensors. Even 2 VME bridge drivers.

There are 11,018 lines of this.

=y means it's compiled into the kernel

=m means it's a loadable module (but still takes up some kernel memory and more on disk as a .ko)

> Why do security people feel compelled to pen test sites without a contract or formal engagement?

They didn't in this case. Though, maybe you could argue that the engagement wasn't formal enough.

They found the initial hint of the bug from normal use, and requested permission before doing the actual pen test.

Regarding the analogy, this isn't some random house they wanted to test. It's an essential service they used and depended on. Perhaps your analogy can be improved by them being an apartment building resident interested in the security issues of the building as a whole, since it affects the security of their own apartment. Even then, it doesn't seem like a perfect analogy that accurately reflects the situation. In the analogy, you could argue that they should change buildings if they're concerned, but banking options seem way more limited in comparison.

I find when I highlight it's for two things: 1) Noting key points to come back to and 2) important concepts I'm not as familiar on as I could be, usually unconsciously it comes up in the form of a question or some sort of information that is breaks exceptions.

Instead of highlighting I take notes. I write down a list of key points, and I write down a list of topics I'm not as familiar I'd like to be with, including breaking expectations.

I go further and I google around investigating this list learning more on the topics beyond what the paper has to say.

This style may or may not be ideal for you, but it works well for me. Highlighting has always, for me, been not very helpful when compared to taking notes and getting a more solid understanding by combining sources of information on the topic when possible.
Decade later and wow, this is just sad overall for the USA.
The NRA supported the Mulford Act.
its less of a trial these days and more about biblical retribution. In regard to Megaupload, Dotcom says he believes the company had actively tried to prevent copyright infringement – its terms of service forced users to agree they would not post copyrighted material to the website. Companies or individuals with concerns that their copyright material was being posted on Megaupload were given direct access to the website to delete infringing links. If it went to trial, im doubtful the RIAA has a slam-dunk case at all considering the bulk of their evidence was illegally collected. Justice Winkelmann ruled that the handing of hard drives seized by New Zealand police in the raid to the FBI was in breach of extradition legislation, and the FBI's removal from New Zealand of cloned data from them was unlawful.

in the past decade the RIAA/MPAA have increasingly gone after the idea of piracy instead of actual piracy. Tor and end-to-end encryption recently made their public shit list but theyve been wardrumming against any and all pushback against the DMCA for a long time.
This returns to my original point; people win elections promising to lock more people up because locking people up is very popular.

What a weird meme to appear twice on this page.

Corporations don't exist as an entity except via the authorisation from government.

Separating corporation and state really means giving corporations autonomous powers. That's not the conclusion that you are hoping for.

> Data may only be kept (passed) in BEAM registers between instructions.

My understanding is that the latency of an L1 cache load is 5 cycles on recent Intel processors.

In tight code that is a really substantial overhead. I get that register allocation is complicated, and I totally see the benefit of simplicity, but it's hard not to think that this will significantly limit performance.

That is true of all code you delete. It had some use, or it would never have been added in the first place.

I'm not arguing for the entire thing to be a ball of mud. Just pushing that there are trade-offs. And, in general, less code is better code. Even if it is a larger method.

Granted, I think a lot of this is in strawmen. Breaking 5 lines out of a 40 line method so that you can be better abstracted is usually fighting the wrong things. Breaking it out of a 500 line function is different.

Three only reason I have to fear dismantling Mercury to build a Dyson swarm of O’Neill cylinders to live in, complete with wildlife preserves greater in internal surface area than the Earth, is “can human politics work like that?” rather than anything else.

You find it sickening? Don’t worry, you probably won’t even notice the new “stars” twinkling around you, even in the unlikely event of self replacing factories on Mercury being developed in an un-augmented human lifetime and therefore you living long enough to know about it.

I am in major disagreement that Employers should pay for health insurance. An employee works for an employer, employer pays them for their work. That should be the only contract. The health insurance market should be the same no matter who you work for. In fact living in Australia, the user experience I want is to pay a bit extra in tax and receive the same level of affordable healthcare.

I just find it so hard that many Americans don't see the logic in this. This is NOT a new idea. It's being done for over a 100 years in many modern nations. Employee healthcare is only an American thing AFAIK. It's a shitty deal for both employers and employees.
Recently there’s been a bit of a contentious issue involving federal cops on the street in Oregon cities, disobeying Oregon law, and violating human rights.

The various federal police forces have a way of using selective enforcement as a weapon. It’s really terrible.

It’s why I’m not as happy as I’d like to be about these sorts of developments.

When the FBI can arrest you and throw you in jail for decades at will simply for doing something “totally legal, maaan” it’s a really worrying state of affairs.
I'm usually my own worst enemy of messing with a working image, so if it was broken, it was usually my own fault.

I use the same Bluetooth GPS receiver with Avare on an Android tablet in conjunction with a Pi and a pair of antennas. The stock images are more or less fool proof if you pick USB radio receivers that are on the supported list. I had wired a GPS to it too at one point - but had an incident with a model airplane and a lake, so continue to use the external Dual. I've never gotten around to putting it in a one unit case.. basically end up tossing it in the back seat dangling everywhere.

I replaced our Stratus (guess where the project name originated from) with the homemade one. On the recommended hardware, it is solid. I was also able to (usually) make it work on non-certified (if you can call this hand rolled combination certifiable) hardware like the pi zero. Hit and miss with the newer stuff. Need to pick up one of the newer pis to help out with the porting. By far, my biggest issue was making sure the battery pack was charged.
