Worse, i find they waste money on crappy hardware from bad system integrators. If you could take the money they spend and buy systems yourself, you can easily get much better computers.
Are you saying most conservative Catholics fetishize poverty and suffering as much as Mother Teresa did? That's a harsh wide brush.

If you don't know if the criticism of Mother Teresa is legit, then you can easily find out for yourself by clicking on the link to the wikipedia page I gave you, reading it critically, and looking at the citations. No need to trust me, or ask me to prove to you what's already so well documented.

Les côtés ténébreux de Mère Teresa

Larivée, Serge; Carole Sénéchal; Geneviève Chénard (2013). "Les côtés ténébreux de Mère Teresa". Studies in Religion/Sciences Religieuses. 42 (3): 319–345. doi:10.1177/0008429812469894. S2CID 144593256.

Montreal - A study conducted by Canadian researchers questions Mother Teresa’s views on the poor’s suffering, the dubious management of money by the Missionaries of Charity, and contends the humanitarian image of Mother Teresa is a media-orchestrated "myth".

The paper published on-line on January 15, 2013, in the Journal "Studies in Religion/Sciences religieuses" under the title "Les côtés ténébreux de Mère Teresa” (The dark side of Mother Teresa) is based on the analysis of 287 documents covering 96% of the literature on the life and work of Mother Teresa of Calcutta (born Anjezë Gonxhe Bojaxhiu), the Albanian-Indian Roman Catholic nun, 1979 Nobel Peace Prize winner, and founder of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity (OMC). The report concludes that the nun’s sacred image and the events leading to her beatification were the result of a well-orchestrated and effective media campaign.

Mind that nice things also come from the crowd which you call hipster, whereas your 9-5 crowd is writing some dotnet accounting app. I couldn't care less about what enterprise java developers do, not because I disrespect them, but it's not discussed because it's not interesting.

It seems like you somehow think paid shitty software was / is better than free shitty software. Mind that free shitty software has its upsides too.

Don't forget the endless stream of security updates, bundled up with whatever new UI/tracking/arbitrariness they want to force upon you. After all, the world wide web is a dangerous place, and your data is at risk. Don't you trust us to keep you safe? As if you had a choice.
I agree that subjective and emotional reasoning are perfectly valid in choosing a tool, but disagree a bit with your take on efficiency.

Efficiency isn’t a measure of how long a task takes, it’s about how much additional work is performed relative to the optimal path. Waking vs driving to work is an interesting example because it depends on what you count as work when you frame the problem. Driving requires your body to less work, but walking costs less energy overall because you don’t have to accelerate and move a heavy vehicle.

I prefer LaTeX (specifically via org mode) because it feels like there is less cognitive overhead to me. References are magical (especially with org-ref), I don’t have to fight with the layout algorithm to keep my train of thought as i move my cursor around and edit text, emacs keybindings....

This is all in tension with collaborative writing, since most people in my field don’t use LaTeX or org mode. Here I prefer GDocs to Word in large part because at least my browser understands some basic emacs keybindings.
If FireEye, ostensibly full of competent people, can be hacked, what hope does the government have for protecting access to legally mandated backdoors in encryption? The silver lining of these events is it shows how ridiculous mandating backdoors would be. It’s begging other nations to attack us.
I believe this is implemented.

You will have to edit imgui.ini which is generated after launching the program once.
So you’re saying animals care.
It will be interesting to see if the tools are also published online en masse, similar to what happened with the NSA's hacking tools.

I put the meta tag to render some special characters without relying on the server, but HTTP header would be a better option (Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8).

And you nailed the process.
There's a really big gap between claiming that modern web development goes too far and runs far too much code and is much too bloated and claiming all sites that require javascript are "not accessible." You may as well go into shouty rants about the use of color because you refuse to stop using a monochrome terminal.
The same could be achieved by having the server return different views of the data for different HTTP Accept headers, although not as convenient as appending a file extension. I once did this to interpolate REST API responses into dedicated HTML templates if requested with Accept: text/html, which made exploring the API in the browser more enjoyable.
You can actually set up k3os on a single node and get all the benefits eg release a new deployment and have it keep old pods up until new pods are healthy . I have it hosted on my NAS and use ansible to set up deployments and in ci.

Tooling has come along way as well.

But the learning curve is knarly and I picked up a few tricks from companies I worked at.

There is a very interesting distribution of programming languages for the emacs users that answered: Python first, bash/sh second, then web related, systems, and popular or rising languages, down to R, lisp, assembly, Common Lisp (I assume) and c#. It shows the breadth, power, and extensibility of such a nicely designed tool, when most languages in the list were invented after the Emacs editor.
You're going to want to run analytics, and to do that you need comparable data. Legacy data was a huge problem for the e-commerce giant I used to work at, even in The SQL database with a schema. NoSQL would be a silly non starter for any serious data modelling effort after a couple years of migrations outages, and code changes.
Apple shut down the I AM RICH app and ever since has tried to emulate it.
It's not a mistake in their copy, which is unambiguous, it's just your incorrect reading of the antecedent.

The headphones themselves are always referred to in the copy AirPods Max, never as "a device".

The headphones are unusable without a source, referred to in every single place in as "a device".

I get making the mistake, but there's no need to double down when someone points out you've misread.

Why spy on your own citizens when that makes them blackmail-able by foreign nation states?

Seriously, the quickest, cheapest, easiest way to spy on someone (edit= everyone) in the US (or any 5 eyes) is through our own "security" agencies, but I'm going to go with stupidity rather than malice on the NSA's part.
Recovered over $47,000
All thanks to Arthur Vitali, I was able to recover over $47,000 out of $50,000 I lost online to some fake investors. I was drowning in debts until I was introduced to this pro hacker Arthur.

He has already helped two friends of mine with cellphone hack and credit repair/score boost.
I've been out of the security game for years now, but I would say no. A security company is still a company. And companies are vulnerable to security threats from nation states.

It probably depends whether (and how) they confirm it was a nation state, though.
Anecdotally, from my friends who work in the service industry, this is also a law that is often simply ignored -- so in lean shifts, workers can go home with less than federal minimum wage. Not a good scene.

How the Golden State Killer was found: A covert operation and private DNA
One interesting interpretation: some folk say that if you make money in the market it's because you drove the market towards efficiency. If you bought low and sold high (control for inflation/rates/dividends/whatever) your purchase pulled up the price when you bought and pushed down the price when you sold, and the "time-traveller's arbitrage" was reduced.

Say a company will live for 1 year, pay no dividend and perform no buybacks, but has some stock price. Say -X(X-1), so it starts at price=0 at t=0, ends at price=0 at t=1, and has positive but illogical/inefficient positive prices in between up to a maximum of p=0.25 at t=0.5.

Now, someone who bought then sold on the up-slope -- with price impact -- would make money but increase the difference between the price curve and "true value" (which is the equation p=0.) But if you iterated those buying and selling operations with time-travelling argitrageurs, the realised value would eventually be the true value. The price curve would be p=0.

So, in conclusion, maybe "all investing is value investing" is false under this interpretation, but true if there are time travellers involved. (There is almost certainly a more charitable phrasing.)

Thank you for attending my TED Talk.
I started a company selling make-at-home dog treat mix that has been going really well (I mean, relatively - sales aren't huge but they're going the right direction and feedback is great so far).

Of course I started this after Covid killed my plan to open a dog boarding business (but not before I spent a whole bunch of money that I'll never get back), so I guess we'll call it a wash.

Teleport 5.0: Application Access for Developers
But this is not always a fair label to apply. If I release a device running Android that prevents you from using your own Android, that's a problem with me and the device I released, not with Android. This seems to be conflating hardware and software -- which is understandable in the context of operating systems -- but we should be clear about the cause of the problem, which has nothing to do with the openness of the code.

I’m on the fence.

I work in higher ed and happily pay the premium for red hat.

We only have about 500 systems in our top 10 research/health based institution.

I’m really tempted to spin up an in-house replacement for CentOS. Not strictly to defer adoption of RHT, but instead to fill the necessary gap for those who have gone “all-in” with CentOS.

Those in higher ed have access to all the necessary components required to produce CentOS. All they need is leadership.
eCommerce needs a hybrid data model. There are inherent relationships between various parts of eCommerce entities and it becomes very hard if just using noSQL with all the integrity constraints defined in application.

This is one of the reason many companies moved back to relational model after dabbling with noSQL. I believe the best way to model it is to use something like PostgreSQL with jsonb docs for some type of data.

If you are interested in noSQL database may be give a try to reactioncommerce (acquired recently), you will begin to hit limitations soon, given integrity constraint and ACID compliance becomes very important for some type of eCommerce data e.g. changing prices and inventory in real time which are consistent and correct. It becomes extremely hard and complex to manage it in application code, which comes free with relational database model.
How they handle it will impact their credibility more than anything. Honestly a company that gets popped and responds with urgency, gravity, transparency and integrity might even come out ahead.
The UI looks faster as well. I'm testing on a slow Chromebook, so it's really noticeable. Well done, GitHub team!
> FireEye CEO Mandia wrote that none of the red team tools exploited so-called “zero-day vulnerabilities,” meaning the relevant flaws should already be public.

Seems like a massive amount of energy to devote to stealing tools, that by and large, probably have public equivalents sitting around on GitHub.
I haven't been able to read every comment here, but one thing I haven't seen discussed is the name choice.

The AirPods Max are not the Pro Max. We have AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max.

I expect to see AirPods Pro Max sometime next year and I wouldn't be surprised if they come in somewhere around $1000.
I hope so. Between the cia, russia, nsa, and other private company dumps, it's been a fun time to be in the industry. I can't find these yet anywhere.

In terms of auditing, we do evaluate other services the carriers offer (like address corrections, residential surcharges, etc), as well as help our customers catch things like unmanifested shipments (ie, you print off a label, customer cancels order, and you don't cancel out that shipment). We have a full suite of reports and analytics that extend beyond just our service. We also provide contract analysis and optimization.

In terms of resources, of course I have to point to our blog and podcast, available from RefundRetriever.com.

"I mean who the fuck spends 7000 at a colo for 40.0000 users."

You misread the article. The startup with the $1 million devops ended up with 40,000 users. The startup with the co-lo was a different startup, which in fact had a very large user base.
Too expensive bruh...
OT: I thought I had an idea of what it is you do, but now it's clear I don't, and I'd love to hear more about why it is you've evaluated all the mainstream reversing tools. :)

Anyone know a "Material design spec" for dark mode? I mean I'm no designer and I just want to copy paste some hex codes to make the apps I built support dark mode.

Dark mode sounds easy (just make the background black!), but I'm pretty sure there are more science to that, because many dark mode apps I've tried make me uncomfortable and I reverted to normal mode because it's _easier_ for my eyes.
> Seriously, the quickest, cheapest, easiest way to spy on someone in the US (or any 5 eyes) is through our own "security" agencies, but I'm going to go with stupidity rather than malice on the NSA's part.

No. The quickest and easiest way is probably to send them a phishing message, the next easiest is probably figuring some of their password recovery answers using dossiers compiled by data brokers, maybe after that it's tapping into their phone line using SS7. Probably the hardest way is to first hack a security agency, which I'd imagine have some of the better intrusion detection out there.
I'm not saying you need even more restoration. Just that it's not harmful.

If lying down were harmful then we'd wake up in the morning with big problems.

Granted some people do wake up with problems but that's not normal, and often has to do with specific sleep posture problems (mattress too soft, stomach sleeping, sleeping too curled up, etc.).

If the first time you come into contact with LaTeX is when doing your thesis then I can see why you stopped. Preferably you would have used LaTeX for writing project reports in other courses. If you don't have to enter equations all over your thesis then I would say LaTeX is a bit overkill, markdown probably would have worked as well or Word as you mentioned.
I was expecting this to be about architecture designed to protect one's privacy with a bunch of camera drones whizzing around, but it's quite the opposite. It's about building landing pads for drones into houses.

> I think these studies are all significantly flawed because successful people with dark personality traits learn to cover up their dark traits.

Disagree, people like Napoleon, Stalin, Steve Jobs, Bill Clinton, Putin,Zuckerberg,etc were highly succesful and very high in dark personality traits. If anything I find very difficult to find a highly succesful or powerful person who does not have them. I read once an article about Angela Merkel (A politician widely regarding as one of the good ones, a dove) it was eye opening, she is ruthless, she back-stabbed her long-time mentor and crushed her political enemies with no remorse.

"Loud noises do not cause the ear to produce earwax as a protection mechanism. Instead, earwax secretion is triggered by physical contact. This means that people who wear in-ear headphones, earplugs or hearing aids are more likely to find an increase in earwax. For loud noises to stimulate earwax production, it has to produce significant sound waves that trick the ear into thinking there is physical contact. However, for this to occur, the noise would have to be so loud it would cause permanent damage to the eardrum as well as excruciating pain."

It depends on how it happened, too. If it was a nation state deal and no more details come forth, I vote no. If this is a finphisher type hack and they get humiliated and db/source dumped, then yes.
Thanks for the insight. Obviously all of you working in the trenches have had a hard year, and we may not know just how hard it has been. We all are thankful for the role you've played keeping things going. Hopefully the decisions being made by the higher ups are being made to benefit their customers and their workers.

Yes, and it was a waste of time. Freelancing and consulting is a relationship business. It's hard enough to get a reply from cold emails (0.5–1.0% reply rates are typical), it's even harder to form a relationship that will result in high-value contracts.

If you absolutely need to do it, make the emails highly targeted and personalized. For example:

1. Find 10 companies that are very similar to your last client.

2. For each of those companies, find the person with authority and budget to hire developer contractors.

3. Study them and their company and make educated guesses about their current needs or problems. For instance, if they just launched a new product, maybe it needs an API. Or if their product only integrates with X and Y, maybe they could use an integration with Z.

4. Write a very short and direct email explaining that you can help them do [need/problem from step 3], what you did for [past client who resembles them], and what was the business outcome of that project.

5. Follow up once at most. Don't be annoying.
> Wellll.. I mean the json has markdown syntax in it. That's a lot nicer than html tags for markup, but it's still markup.

Isn't markdown literally just HTML shortcuts for a limited set of common markup cases? IIRC, it's not uncommon to have to insert HTML tagging into markdown to get certain things to work.
I don't think they would be publishing this if they didn't think that the tools will stay secret. They are getting ahead of it.
What animals think is unknowable. It’s just as valid to say they care as to say they don’t care. We can say that they do try to stay alive as long as possible. But what does it matter what their thoughts are anyway? Physics cares about radiation, biology cares. There is no way arbitrary human-introduced tissue damage from radiation is going to be good for any creature on earth. This is wrong, no buts about it.
The “weed out” class that the author describes in his story is the same type of class that eventually lead me to drop out of college/my cs program. Teacher described the class the same way. What’s interesting here though is that I ended up learning how to really program by debugging and reverse engineering software while in a customer support role. I eventually ended up being moved to the development side of things after I filed enough defects in our code base.
Remember Android? It’s a trap!
Counter counter point: I pretty regularly read pdf docs on my phone, and it’s a horrible experience.

I went so far as to write a script that downloads the Tex source of a paper from arxiv, changes up the paper size to match my phone screen, and recompiles the paper. It’s ok for text-heavy documents, but doesn’t work well for most figures. And most of my field does not post preprints (or use LaTeX at all).

For me the ideal solution would be something like org mode -> html output. I think the main gap that isn’t really addressed by any tool I’ve seen is reference management
That's definitely not normal. Have you seen a doctor or physical therapist about that?

There are lots of possible causes, with possible fixes including a different mattress, changing your sleeping position/posture, specific stretches, and massaging specific muscles.

I can't speak to that. I'm not in the OL team and don't know what they do / did. Oracle can/does throw a lot more engineers at development and build than CentOS does (I believe they only have a few engineers). I believe the stuff for building the RPMs lands in the CentOS git repo early on.
