This is it.

I don't even think Jira is specifically bad. If someone was only using it for basic project managment and ticketing, it'd be acceptable.

However, occupies the same niche as SAP or Oracle businessware.

First, Take a service that must be ergonomic because people rely on it all day to do their job. Next, make the primary requirement the ability for managment and finance to run reports. Then, outsource it to a company that wants to add custom web frameworks on top of a decades old project. Finally, graft on decades of customizations done by different generations of contractors.
> It's possible that he was sort of a big deal?

Where? I've never heard of him.
> I wouldn't have clicked it

That’s exactly the point. The current title is clickbait. If you think the original title is boring, it’s because this is a boring piece of news.

I wouldn’t be worried about “warning” people, since WhatsApp already warns people when they click the report button:

> Most recent messages from this user will be forwarded to WhatsApp
How else would they take down a bad person's account? They say they don't know anything he/she sends.
Or they - where "they" is "every social media platform ever" can just not do a goddamned thing, and I'll make up my own fucking mind.

This viewpoint that people need or want shit to be labelled for them is the most disgusting, paternalistic, anti-freedom bullshit to disgrace America in recent memory.

Too many of these fucking people, not just in tech, but also in politics, have this viewpoint of "nudging people into better patterns", etc. My best friend, a smart man, but by no means the smartest of my friends once said something that resonated with me so strongly I doubt I'll ever forget it:

"The problem with freedom is what other people do with it."

Turns out people don't always do what you want, and that's the "true" price of freedom. Tolerating other people's stupidity.
A lot of my stack is not functional yet:

On the bright side, Node 15 can be compiled on it.
Recently helped my dad clear out his office - and we came across a binder with fan-folded, faded dot matrix printed copy of COBOL code he used in order to calculate taxes in the 80s - translating the code to BASIC. The original COBOL code came from the Norwegian tax office - I'm not sure if they still publish something similar.

A little unfortunate that we threw it out.
Nothing shady about this. It isn’t logged and it protects customers from malware. That was the purpose. Most customers want that.
While there is certainly a MAC using a key shared between sender and receiver using either an integrated authenticated encryption algorithm or encrypt-then-MAC this key will be known to the recipient and is thus useless for proving authenticity to a third party. But facebook could add an additional MAC using a key only known to them over the already authenticated ciphertext.
>I wonder how that works. I guess [...] Either way, it is a compromise on E2EE.

How about instead of guessing and concluding it must be compromised (argument from ignorance), you do a cursory search and get an actual response?

Nope. There are plenty of C/C++ tools which do this sort of test.

This was a popular one for a while, back when C++ was still used for major new applications: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BoundsChecker

There are lots of techniques for this. For example, you can instrument malloc() to allocate 10 extra bytes, put a specific known value there, and confirm it didn't change.

There are much fancier ones too, which make clever use of hardware features like MXP. It's a whole research field.

You're now quibbling over my characterization of your characterization of the clickbaity title, which is fun but not really the point. The point is 'don't editorialize/rewrite titles into clickbait, please'.

> One of the samples Brianna decided to weave, was exploring what happens when you use differential sett with really slippery rayon, warp and weft, and then slippery rayon warp and a dragging kind of weft like Shetland wool. The sample with the slippery rayon warp, though challenging, was completely successful. She then wound a warp with the Shetland wool, and the idea was she would tie into the rayon warp and repeat the experiment with a rayon weft and a wool weft, producing an additional two samples.

The jargon! Is this what tech talk sounds like to outsiders?
> Reference counting is typically used in garbage collection

While you _can_ implement a garbage collector with reference counting, and in the broadest possible definition of 'garbage collector' you could call Apple's use of reference counting a garbage collector, no, what people typically call garbage collectors are not, today, typically primarily dependent on reference counting.
As the article explains whether loneliness is a real problem for you depends on your personality.

Some people relish time alone and would rather people not bother them at all. Some people fear spending even a single day alone.

For most people it's a mixed bag, some days they'd rather be alone and cancel their plans. Other days they can't wait to go out with friends.
Chinese mouthpiece paid US newspapers $19 mn in ads, printing: Report
Warning: American viewpoint that might not make as much sense applied globally.

I’d go so far as to say it’s also because it is not heavily politicized either. The political right already has (human) abortion to win the emotional vote, they have no reason to go any further as those people will never change their minds on average (which is good enough to win elections)

For the record I don’t at all think abortion should be politicized, and seeing such clear pandering to emotion to win votes is so fucking tiring to see happen now, it’s tiring to read about it throughout history, and it’s tiring to know it’s going nowhere for the future.
Same. In three years of immersing myself in my passion (pentesting/vuln research), I've tripled my income and vastly improved my quality of life. A lot of it was just going after my area of interest vs listening to other people tell me what I "need" to do before I go there.

Again, probably not the route if you aren't interested in it though... Not saying you need to wake up, hack, sleep, repeat, but you probably won't be able to "tough it out for a paycheck"... There needs to be a substantial level of passion/interest in the subject for it to work. IMO, that's where it goes wrong for a lot of people. They get excited about buying a bootcamp or whatever, but then quickly find out that it isn't for them and lose interest, or worse, go through the motions and then wonder why it isn't working...
I worked in Kansas and made 45k at a small agency. It was one of the larger college towns and I worked my way up from $12/hr as the company grew, thanks to my help.

Rural Kansas dev might aspire to 45k but even then. I think they might just live in a small town and don’t want to look for work elsewhere. Which is fine, just know the salary comes with the territory. Half the reasons tech pays what it does is because a lot of the jobs are in expensive cities.
Sure, there are pros and cons to going to work. That's why it's called work. Every job has them.
Indeed, this is what I see https://i.imgur.com/jVWhV49.png with Arch's Firefox 83.0 on Parabola (downstream of Arch).

It seems that the issue is the "LatinModernMathJax_Monospace-Regular" font being broken. This font is part of the "mathjax2" package, which is a dependency of my PDF reader.
I continually struggle with the fact that, while I don't find eating animals morally wrong when treated and killed humanly, I don't think I could kill an animal myself.
Probably worth pointing out a significant portion of the BSD "personality" in the XNU kernel is just straight FreeBSD. You could kind of say XNU is a superset of the FreeBSD kernel.

On top of that, the unix userland resembles FreeBSD, although it's pretty eclectic in choices, e.g. it ships with GNU grep and GNU make by default IIRC while I think FreeBSD uses BSD grep and make by default?

(Darwin is pretty eclectic overall -- some portions are more NetBSDish. Kernel is mostly Free I think)
So why have constructors for every possible set of parameters?

Why

VerbalExpression.regex()
.startOfLine().then("http").maybe("s")
.then("://")
.maybe("www.").anythingBut(" ")
.endOfLine()

Instead of

new VerbalExpression()
.startOfLine().then("http").maybe("s")
.then("://")
.maybe("www.").anythingBut(" ")
.endOfLine();
>for operators trying to resolve this issue

It's a shame Amazon doesn't have thousands of employees to divide these tasks between different people, as it is only these busy operators who could update this status page.

If you're right, why have the status page then? It is useless by your definition yes?
I think it can be good for you to do this kind of work once in a while. I like to sort my M&Ms.

But! From a technical perspective, I would never ever do this. It's likely to causes merge conflicts on every single pending branch anyone has. I would recommend only changing the area you are working on. Leave it better than you found it, but don't rock the canoe so to speak.
> The centre is the bulk that moves. It's the part that decides.

No, it isn't. That's exactly the problem. Trump found a bug in the system, a security hole, in the form of leveraging the non-linearity built in to the current system. The Constitution was designed to produce minority rule, on the assumption that if the minority abused that power too much the majority would rise up and force them out of power. The problem is that this bias is amplified by modern communications technologies, which allow a determined person to leverage a fairly small minority into effective dictatorial power. The Constitutional bias towards minority rule is amplified by party politics, gerrymandering, echo chambers, etc. to the point where you only need a few million motivated followers to effectively control the agenda. All you need is enough voters following you that you can pose a credible threat to unseat any politician in your party at the next primary. Those few million motivated followers are much more likely to be found at the extremes than in the center, and they are much more likely to be found in rural areas and hence be conservative. Given enough time, this influence can be leveraged into enough disenfranchisement through legitimate-seeming voter suppression efforts that unseating the minority becomes effectively impossible through any legal means. At that point, the minority no longer needs to compromise. And since it is the most radical members of the minority who are the foundation of this strategy, the result is extreme radicalization. And all this can happen without moving the center. That's the problem.

Good recommendation, I wish more domain owners followed them, but Unicode quotes in examples for DNS TXT record is bad:
TXT “v=spf1 -all”
should be
TXT "v=spf1 -all"
instead.

I see a lot of broken SPF records where instead if ASCII hyphen (-) some other symbol is used e. g. en-dash (–) or em-dash (—). Probably admins just copy-paste an examples from a web pages like this.
Yours is probably the first comment I've seen that takes a rather logical approach. I'm an omnivore but always buy everything pasture raised and mostly local. Where not local, I order from farms listed on eatwild.com. The obvious hit is cost, but that means I eat less of it.

Eventually, humanity will have to accept that going vegan is the only sustainable method.

There is no problem. I'm just informing people reading HN of this change. Your messages will now be sent when you report a person/group.
Well I think the catch is that, to use the US as an example, "big science" projects such as the NIF, particle accelerators, synchrotron light sources, and supercomputers are generally all funded by the DOE, while small individual research labs are generally funded by NSF or (if biomedical) NIH.

Critically, the only reason that DOE can support the cost of these "big science" projects is that they are generally "dual use" so to speak, with both basic science and national security applications. A similar dynamic is arguably at play in the funding of the largest projects in other countries as well.

So it is not clear that cutting such "big science" projects would in practice actually open up more funding for small basic science grants, lacking the same national security applications.
I would argue that there are a lot of conspiracy theories out there at the moment that should be labeled as such.

A better example would be the tendency of the left to mark anyone they disagree with as “racist”. Same strategy. Mark your opponents as something that’s so bad that no further discussion can be allowed.
With (popular) messaging apps now subject to draconian measures to introduce a backdoor, I am now skeptical of these messenger apps, since all an intel agency has to do is push a backdoored binary down the wire to a device, and the user is (usually) unaware that their messages are tapped by the agency. Even with reverse engineering of the app, it could be difficult to determine if it's compromised or no longer 'privacy aware'.
These must be bigger than the originals in some huge percentage of cases...
People made this exact same "no evidence" argument about animals for years, and many still believe it. The fact is we don't know enough about how plants or animals experience life to be sure of anything.

I don't know what Intersetellar is (obviously a book/movie but I don't care to look it up).

What is the local vs remote system? When you have small farms local is you, and remote your neighbors who you walk to. When you have large enough farms you can generate enough surplus that the world cares - and they are generating enough that they can afford to play nice. Small farmers in general don't generate enough surplus that they can feed each other across the distance of a continent.

Support from a galactic cluster is nice in SciFi, but in reality space is too big. It is questionable if Earth/Venus could support each other, as our orbits are often too misaligned to do anything in time. (the fast trip to mars involves Venus so things are even worse). Going between stars - forget it, by the time we find out about a problem they are dead or have survived.
I thought the whole premise was that we needed to limit the suffering of other living things that aren't humans at all costs, not about human happiness.
Revenue was $1.6 billion in 2020, up 33% from $1.2 billion for 2019.

Growing at that rate at this point in your company's lifecycle is pretty extraordinary. So not sure why you would consider them to be a cautionary tale.

As for what has happened to them. They have been on an acquisition binge the last few years e.g. Trello, StatusPage, OpsGenie, Mindville etc. And as mentioned above they have been rewriting their UI in a new React framework called Atlaskit.

I also used to think Atlassian was a pretty poorly run company but then you look into it and actually the opposite is true. Although they did let Github, Gitlab, Slack dominate them.

Next few years will be interesting as Gitlab is moving very fast into their space.
This is one part of the problem though, I know someone in the hospital staffing industry and they have 28,000 open positions in America for skilled nursing alone even with the huge pay increases. Just hope you don't get sick in the next year.

And besides, the job tree has stopped bearing its fruit because it is out of season and it's been picked dry already.
For the most part, no. Optimizing compilers can't do this.

There are whole classes of problems one runs into from:

- The ability to change variables by reference or through introspection

- Exceptions in intermediate computations

- Etc.

The set of transformations one can do while maintaining guaranteed equivalence is limited.
Arguably, regulatory forces created the environment in which money could be used to so effectively manipulate doctors at the cost of patient outcomes. If doctors stood to lose business when they lost patients -- instead of fearing only for their license being revoked -- perhaps they'd be incentivized more to treat patients well than to engage in opioid schemes.
Allying with Trump is a dangerous path because his only ideology is himself.
It's interesting that you've never heard of one of the most famous people in the world. Probably a reflection of insular American media perhaps. It doesn't work in reverse, Babe Ruth was one of the most famous people in the world even though most people around the world don't follow baseball.

For example rooting a phone by hand is pretty hard. Many tools exist to do it automatically.
From my point of view, reskilling will be the main discussion for the next decade. Here is my experience about reskilling: I quit my banking career 3-4 years ago with the thought of career transition. I thought the daily routine that I had could easily be automated. Therefore, I made the decision to leave my job quite easily after having a burnout. First I took a gap year in a foreign country to recover from burnout totally. I came back to my country in the beginning of 2019 start learning to code immediately. I learnt Python. It was, and still is, a popular language, so learning Python should be a logical decision for me. I thought 6 months would be enough to learn fundamentals and transition your career. First I took a bootcamp that lasted 6 months and applied for jobs after I finished it. It didnt go as it planned. I couldnt find a job. Now it has been more than 1 and half years. Still no job. I have started my master degree in IT and am specializing in Data Analysis/Science to be more specific. I consider my undergraduate degree relevant to Data Science, which is Mathematics. Still no positive response from employers. I completed all necessary stuff to put on my resume like end-to-end projects and MOOC specializations(yes it's more than one) Luckily, I am earning my living by tutoring and no financial concerns for near future. My point is reskilling and learning to code are not always guarantee someone a new job as the caption suggests. At least, I love spending time with computers and totally enjoy what I do whether I can find a job or not.

your expectations are not low enough.
We built a simple pinning system for a project I'm involved with: each node queries a blockchain-based database for a set of resources to pin locally. Resource publishers pay blockchain fees to advertise their data for pinning.

We also found it necessary to build a kind of "overlay" to the p2p network (how each peer selects its peers) because the default algorithm produced too sparse a network. The probability of one node ever being connected to another node that holds content it would like to sync approaches zero. The topology for the overlay network is also fetched from said blockchain.
It's a great symbol.

Low-earth orbits decay because of friction between the spacecraft and the Earth's upper atmosphere. What do you imagine would guarantee the decay of a solar orbit before a perturbation (by, e.g., the gravity of the Earth's moon or a comet) sends the orbiting object into a collision course with Earth?
You're arguing semantics. I never said "text-based preprocessing," I said "preprocessing." I specifically pointed to C++ templates which is a preprocessing layer with is most definitely NOT text-based.

I'm afraid you're shifting the complexity to a manual process.

I agree that it doesn't have to, and perhaps should not, be fully automated. But automating some parts will help not waste time on last minute arguments.

I always thought that E2E didn’t mean much since they could translate the encrypted messages into useable content (eg common words).

Is this true or are the messages randomly garbled each time so that there is no way for Facebook to figure out the main content

It seems like i get ads based on my WhatsApp messages, but this could be conjecture
Lol you have never had to deal with apple's over complicated code signing as a developer.

Adds a lot of wrenches when your just trying to do basic stuff like codesign and push test builds onto a USB connected device from a bash script and it is flaky and undocumented as fuck.

I am honestly jealous of my android counterparts with their far simpler system and first class command line support via adb.
I agree about the pitch and video. I can't tell if this is a business application that would give me more control over my meeting presentations, or if this is targeted for casual fun and/or streamers.

These JIRA UI updates are also an accessibility nightmare.
I'm not suggesting a sinister cabal, I'm suggesting there is a literal conspiracy, a group coordinating in secret. And that group is the government. And the secret would be that highly classified information. In my mind we are seeing things the same, but I can see how the words I put to it might give a different impression.

I really don't like the current "conspiracy theory" understanding in modern usage. It completely screws over the literal usage of those two words together.

If you wish to, please reread my comment without the common connotation of "conspiracy theory" and see if we then agree.
Does AWS write-up what caused these issues when it's finally resolved? Would be interesting to know what takes down so many servers.
>whose main design goals were to bring commonality across all Atlassian products. This is a worthwhile goal

the issue here isn't the goal itself, it is that such highly visible efforts - "common platform", "common UI", etc. which are very complex technically to do right - invariably bring up to the top and into the deciding positions those "drivers of cross-organizational/functional/etc. change" style people whom you'd really want to be staying far from such important and complex technical issues...

I worked with Jira in 2012-13, it was appallingly slow. Making it even slower is an achievement.
