A TLS outage shows all of your visitors a big, red warning message saying "Attackers might be trying to steal your information from example.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards)". Such a warning is a great way of scaring away any business's visitors for good.

A DNSSEC outage shows a message saying "this site cannot be reached at the moment, try again later". I'd much rather have people see the latter than the former.

Signed DNS lookups are quite important for any use of DNS for domain metadata storage, for example in systems like DKIM or SPF. Neither is encrypted, neither is signed in any other way, yet together they control if you can send emails at all, or if your server will get (near) permanently banned from Outlook's spam filters. There are also various PTR records for auto-configuration of various protocols that can easily redirect traffic to other hosts were a victim to get a spoofed version.

We might have abandoned DANE, but there's still important information in DNS. Until we abandon DNS somehow (and I shudder to think what the alternative would be with the way the internet is ruled by Google and Facebook right now), I disagree that the risks are far smaller as you say.
Maybe HammerShaft is referring to the fact that Godot usually has separate components for 2D and 3D?

Unfortunately, there are plenty of antivaxxers in India, especially in the upper middle classes who copy talking points from crunchy western folks. Its not as high as that in, say, California but it is a non negligible fraction.
I was a consultant in security for 15+ years and switched to 'industry' as an engineer/team lead in a large org. I agree with every point you've made, particularly re: networking and ownership, in fact I am still struggling a bit with old habits. I don't know if pwnasaurus can reverse engineer any tips out of them but here are a few:

One challenge in particular is that I have next to zero inertia in my thinking...I will stay with an idea exactly as long as I think it's the best compromise of factors, but if I find a better idea I pivot like a light cycle in Tron. In the consulting world I always have to explain my thinking anyway so this was generally fine. In the product world I'm finding that people in my sphere build mental models of my thinking (or expect me to toe the line) and get surprised in not-great ways when that's not the case. For OP the advice might be that most people won't (likely) have a clue who you are or how you think, and the assumptions and patterns you've developed in a product org might be wildly different than the status quo from place to place. I would say overcommunicate and apply 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do' unless you see a compelling and explainable reason not to.

A related issue is that I will tend to argue multiple positions simultaneously. This might be specifically from the infosec part but I see everything as a tradeoff and unless I 'try on' a position I can't really fully appreciate the nuance. In consulting this worked because it let me test counterarguments and try to land on a well-considered place. In the product role this just tends to confuse people I think, especially if the arguments go against the party line. I don't know if there's anything valuable to extract here for OP.

I also struggle a bit with low 'ownership stamina'. Keep in mind that my average engagement length as a consultant was 2-3 weeks, but I'm great for MVPs and that's about the extent of it. For OP this really depends on your role...if you're staff aug on year contracts there's probably nothing for you to learn from this. If you're short term I think the lesson is that any tech debt or 'I can deal with that later' burden that you are assuming from a decision isn't actually going to be yours to bear. For OP, if applicable, I think the lesson here is to realize that all burdens are going to your customer so prioritize documentation, minimizing loose ends and lowering tech debt/operational costs.

Good luck! It's probably going to be stressful at first but you're going to meet a lot of cool people and neat problems along the way. If you used LinkedIn, get ready to blow that puppy up!
So basically its for US companies? Which was my original premise..

Of course you are speaking in the legal sense, but the target of these laws are US companies/companies where decisions are made in the US.
Yep, first thing I add to my dotfiles when I don't have it haha
This is very true. Good agencies know that they're reputation is more valuable than goosing their margins in the short term but not all agencies are good. I worked in the agency space for a good long time and actually found the most rewarding role was being involved in presales and having input on contract writing so I could help spell out what scope comes at what price. That and wrangling process to make sure the team is laser focussed on delivering to the contract. Two things I never thought I'd enjoy as a young developer.
I'm not familiar with Go, but is there anything in the language which makes it a particularly good fit for this type of problem?
SOME countries, perhaps. Many - no.

At least in the Nordics starting up an LLC equivalent costs around 100$ in registration fees and takes about an hour (plus a week or so waiting time). Of course, you’ll need the initial capital. In Sweden it’s SEK25000/$2500.

The moral of the story is, don't contract to deliver 100 million widgets in a quarter and then actually deliver 30 million widgets. It's pretty simple; remove the vaccine context and there's nothing at all controversial going on here.

Missing production forecasts is one thing, but missing them by this much is unusual and will usually result in trouble for the manufacturer.

Really, I'd say it's more the case that Oxford is regretting working with AZ, rather than a more established vaccine manufacturer.
Yeah, maximum in the UK is 5x I think but most banks will only go up to - 4.5x
It wasn't really my take or opinion, I rather recalled it being cited as the reason by Foxconn itself in multiple instances. Also, I'm from Wisconsin, and an old EECS professor explained this to be the reason from his first-hand knowledge of some conversations with Foxconn. Here is one citation I was able to find quickly:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-foxconn-wisconsin-exclusi...

He said the company was still evaluating options for Wisconsin, but cited the steep cost of making advanced TV screens in the United States, where labor expenses are comparatively high.

“In terms of TV, we have no place in the U.S.,” he said in an interview. “We can’t compete.”

Foxconn has factories in Mexico, Chennai, Malaysia etc. which produce a significant amount of devices but I doubt a factory in US will take off. This article from 2012 about the Steve Jobs "These jobs are not coming back" remark is probably still true: https://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/22/business/apple-america-an...
You can do all that but you'd have to use a neural net instead of "find..." Neural nets make plenty of errors, including on OCR (at least 2-4%).
A wait list you try a browser....ummm no thanks. Touting things like ungoogled, and curated plugins that don't steal data, but never once do I see what data the browser phones home with, or what data they're collecting and selling about you.

Perhaps that's the reason for the wait-list, don't want to overwhelm the telemetry collection servers.
I'll just add a meta comment that `understood (or not) irregardless` is the most value-ambiguous utterance I've read in a long while; quite clear to me what you meant, but probably would be quite a 'head scratcher' for an AI.

> la procura della Repubblica di Catanzaro scrive nell’inchiesta che una persona molto distinta si presentò nell’ufficio della dipendente minacciandola in modo velato, e facendole capire che la sua incolumità e quella della sua famiglia erano a rischio

“The public prosecutor in Catanzaro writes in the filing that a well-dressed person walked into [the witness’s] office and made veiled threats, suggesting her health and the one of her relatives were at risk.”

Well-dressed man speaking softly of physical violence - clearly the guy wanted to appear connected to the local ‘ndrangheta ras.

nice share of the doc pretty common
Yeah, no idea why C# was introduced other than to appeal to people with zero game dev experience who might be lured in by thinking their knowledge of C# is going to matter.

Also, the async/threading model breaks it's chains and requires developers to know about the internal implementation. That to me is a serious WTF.
That's not always true. Both are valuable. A mediocre developer with good soft skills can make their way to management more quickly. But a good and fast developer will be worth their weight in gold. The best devs I've ever worked with I worked with at agencies.

The massive downward revision of this deal, and of Foxconn's commitment to create jobs in Wisconsin, is hardly a surprise. Foxconn has a history of reneging on promises to build factories, as was widely reported when this deal was first made in 2017:

WeWork's _type_ of business is viable, but they way they've ran the business since day one was an obvious money pit and hardly makes objective sense.

The real estate deals primarily structured to enrich the founder should have sent investors packing, but greed for the unicorn overrode their self-preservation.

As a result they're enjoying a massive downgrade of their investments after pouring billions of good money after bad.
I think that is a difference between internal and external communication.

Within the industry in the UK at least, meat processing plants can be both 'kill-facilities' and 'no-kill facilities' which is specifying if they have a slaughterhouse in them or not, but the term meat processing plant includes both. The site operators will not shy away from what is happening - you can't when you are in the room when it happens, and it's actually worse for workers if you de-associate from it.

That doesn't mean when you write a press release you use these terms. External communication gets fluffed-up for the rest of the world, and you don't write 'kill facility' on your address in Google Maps because you don't want to get splattered in red paint.

Not attacking this association, but just wanted to say I really dislike the term "body of knowledge".

Areas of knowledge are certainly some kind of 'body', but the term always sounds to me like something you just keep adding more stuff onto the outside as you go, like a big snowball of ideas. And knowledge can become defunct, irrelevant, or disproven over time.

And there's something about the way it tries to sound almost authoritative, without claiming to be scientific.
They could just add a subscript and superscript modifier.
Not a bad idea, but there’s dozens of other ISO symbols that I think should also be considered[0].

Some are quite important; like safety symbols.

One of my pet peeves has always been the difference between US emergency egress (“EXIT” signs), and everyone else in the world. In the US, they tend to be red, and the word “EXIT”. Everyone else does green, with the man running through the door.

In Japan, medical facilities were denoted by a green cross. In the US, it tends to be blue or red.

Color can be an important factor, but that’s tangential to the Unicode set.

This is the same kind of bs that companies like Uber (and professors) pull to glorify low wages with phrases that glorify below minimum wage work. I like OPs approach let’s be honest about what this work is, make sure you pay what they deserve and don’t try to deceive anyone with fancy accounting.

See my other response about why you’re wrong about threats. This was beyond normal, it’s part of proceedings against 57 people involved in a scheme in the same hospital. Between this and the threats, chances are that “somebody” was managing the hospital as their personal cash machine.
It’s just that there are some great online programs now, and being “pandemic” adjusted, along with an hybrid work model, I think I can earn one. Also I always wanted to get into a top tech company, and I’m thinking this could help.

I'm not sure how you're getting that from that article (which doesn't even _mention_ AZ). If France had wanted to specifically use a French vaccine it would presumably have pursued an independent purchasing model, like the UK and Hungary.
It seems as though this is kind of a common paradigm for game engines. Because the tech and/or best practices move so quickly, trying to lock in full backwards compatibility becomes a burden and thus engine devs fall back to "If you started your game on 3.x then it's probably best to stay there. Your next game can start fresh on 4.x"
That contradicts everything I have ever heard about the use of the term. From Wikipedia:

Human trafficking is the trade of humans for the purpose of forced labour, sexual slavery, or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others. This may encompass providing a spouse in the context of forced marriage, or the extraction of organs or tissues, including for surrogacy and ova removal. Human trafficking can occur within a country or trans-nationally. Human trafficking is a crime against the person because of the violation of the victim's rights of movement through coercion and because of their commercial exploitation. Human trafficking is the trade in people, especially women and children, and does not necessarily involve the movement of the person from one place to another.

What you are talking about is illegal immigration.
The real urgency is they need to protect their reputation. So long as they do a proper investigation and take proper action they can spin this as a rouge professor and be forgiven. We as a community should give them time to investigate and figure out how to handle and prevent this, and then if done correctly forgive them. If they make this statement and then there is no action within a year, then we should assume this is a token attempt to sweep things under the rug and continue with more bans.

For now I'll accept their apology, but if there is no action in the future I'll retract that.
People tend to bring in consultants when they are not healthy and well functioning. That can mean you often end up in clients with a lot of dysfunction. That can be frustrating if you can't help them, but extra rewarding when you can.
Having been in a product org, a consulting org and having done consulting alone, I think:

- The type of work you do is largely the same across all orgs - unless you're a specialist in some advanced field nobody else can do or you can convince someone in power that you know how to do the occasional cool project

- Both can have long useless meetings. Product orgs' meetings will be crap about how the company is awesome and will make zillions or crap about process-but-not-process-cause-we're-agile; consulting orgs' meetings will be all about having 5 muted engineers on reddit while the client comes up with 3 new requirements per minute

- Product orgs can get by doing way less work, if people lazying around and doing the bare minimum or nothing at all upset you, avoid product focused orgs

- I think you can divide consulting orgs roughly in two groups:

- Doing client work with in-house project management: a nightmare of people trying to squeeze more work out of you until you die

- Giving engineers to organisations: largely like working in a product org

- Consulting orgs have the advantage of rotating clients more often, which means you'll have to deal with horrible people for a shorter amount of time (unless the horrible people are inside your consulting org). In product orgs you'll have to deal with them until they leave for somewhere else

- Consulting on your own is definitely more work & more money but, more importantly, reduces the risk of running into horrible people
I never said they do, I said they sell "GCE VMs with years of uptime" i.e. "just pay for VM and let us worry about maintenance, you can simply assume it works for all intents and purposes".

But, the kind of stuff that people are worried about is not VM uptime. It's "honest customer being banned with no recourse and having entire livehood destroyed". You don't hear Google bragging that "we have an SLA of 99.9% service to honest customers - we only destroy 1 out of every 1000 businesses that choose us!". You can bet that their SLA there is 100%, even if it's not achievable, 100% is absolutely their target. Just like the target for Facebook is 100% security, and you won't hear Zuck bragging that "we are 99.9% secure, we only leak your private data once every 3 years!".

I would say that as a small team the main thing is to decide when and how to scale (if you know what you are doing). If you need to stay bootstrapped then that is fine but it does not need to be the template for all small teams.

These sorts of things are really useful and it's one of the reasons I think everyone should keep their dotfiles on github or similar so they can share their little tricks.

Another case of innocence I just listened to is of Myon Burrell sentenced to life in prison for a crime he didn't commit:

https://revealnews.org/podcast/the-jail-tapes-in-the-dumpste...

> Most people serving life sentences don’t have an investigative reporter show up to volunteer at their prison and spend a year reinvestigating their case. Most don’t have ties to a presidential candidate to make their story more appealing to news editors. George Floyd’s killing probably also played a role. Floyd’s death gripped Minnesota and put a spotlight on systemic racism before the eyes of the world. There are efforts around the country to review old cases like Myon’s. About a dozen states have set up sentencing review units or conviction review units. Minnesota is establishing one, but it’s unlikely all the Myons out there will get anyone to give their old cases a second look.
