Back in the mid-2000s I worked at a company that made their own (MIPS-based) chips. NSA was one of our customers - supposedly the "defense" who could be considered the good side of NSA compared to the 10x larger "offense" but still. As we were planning for our second generation, they offered quite a bit of money if we'd implement a "sheep and goats" instruction. It would take two operands: an input and a mask. The masked-in bits of the input (the "sheep") would be packed toward the MSB of the output, while the masked-out bits (the "goats") would be packed toward the LSB. We had a lot of people on staff with serious chops in all sorts of math including cryptography, but none of them could identify an algorithm that would benefit from having such an instruction (as distinct from more conventional range-based bitfield instructions). Since the company went under shortly afterward, it remained a mystery. I still wonder about it.

Scaleway Status: Fire in the Neighborhood
I know this is bait, but I want to provide my experience as counter-example.

I went to a STEM college where anyone who graduates could quite reasonably expect to be able to build themselves a middle-class career, live comfortably, and perhaps even have some economic mobility (moving from middle-class to upper-middle, mainly...).

There weren't a lot of women there, and you would expect that what women were there would be disproportionately the kind of woman who would be interested in having a life-long career.

Just anecdotally, looking at peers who graduated with me, that is not the case. Many are married, and many have chosen to end their careers (where finances allow) to stay at home.

If anything, I would argue the main failing we've committed upon the young generation (regardless of gender) is to provide them an economic framework wherein more than a single-digit percent of wage earners can hope to raise a family on a single income.

In my experience, there are a growing number of men who wish they could be stay-at-home dads if finances permitted.

But instead, most households are dual-income out of necessity.

And beyond that, we've also demonized living with your parents pretty thoroughly, so people are hesitant to save money and get free childcare by living with their extended family.

Something else I want to mention is how poorly we've tailored the current world to making raising a family easier. Letting your kids go further than your lawn unsupervised is tantamount to child abuse now. Childcare is absurdly expensive, low-quality, low-availability (enrollment is headcount-capacity-limited in most places) and low-flexibility (many places either want your full-time enrollment or not at all. You can't just pick some days).

And we've also demonstrated that we're, as a system, willing to totally f** over parents when disasters strike. Covid has been a total disaster for dual-income families with children. I've heard it was not uncommon for it to be "lucky" a partner was laid off because otherwise they would've had to quit, without unemployment benefits, to care for kids full-time.

Anyway, my point is, we've made it really fucking inconvenient to have kids and now there's all this overly-simplistic sexist whinging from a certain segment of the population about how it's somehow all the fault of young women. It's disgusting both from a moral standpoint and in how intellectually lazy it is.
Tcl had a very short time in the fickle web dev spotlight, mostly due to Aolserver and Philip Greenspun. Something between CGI with Perl and whatever Java had to offer in the deep end of the 90s.

At that time, a few lucky folks made way too much money using weird languages for the fledgling commercial internet.

The way to correct this impending demographic disaster is not going to be a popular one. Ironically among women who are complaining about the lack of 'marriageable' men.
> quick response to big problems

Most developers (the kind that actually just sits and codes all day long) are not putting out fires all the time. But, many, many ops (operations) people are. This comment makes a lot of sense if you consider that the author might be in ops.

As a former devops/infrastructure engineer (i.e., my coding was mostly around lighter projects or automation/scripting), I was in some open environments and sometimes they really were a ton of fun. One day I came in and there were server boxes all over my desk... it was funny. We were constantly pranking each other (nothing permanent or painful, of course!) That camaraderie and closeness produced one of the best work environments of my career and I miss it.

However, my job now is serious, head-down coding... I would find that very difficult in the same open office environment, so I think both perspectives can be true depending on the type of job you have.

Seems like your complaints are mostly due to being unprepared for working from home, which, given the situation being thrust onto most of us, is understandable, but also not particularly representative of remote work. Most people aren't going to be working from home with children at home all day, the same way they wouldn't be leaving their children at home alone while they went to the office. Many will have a daycare or school at which their kids will be all day. The ones that don't likely have young children with a stay at home spouse, and yes, not having a dedicated setup for WFH may cause issues, but that certainly isn't universal.

The commuting argument makes absolutely no sense to me. I'd personally much rather be spending time with family, or literally anything else, other than being stuck in the car for an hour or two. If you feel differently, that's fine but literally nothing is stopping you from doing the same thing when working from home. If you drive to and from work, and you miss the solitude so much, then take the same amount of time to take a drive. If you take the train to and from work, and you simply need it, then do it. Requiring working in person however forces those who don't want the commute to participate. That's a though-process I simply can't understand.

What would you recommend for comfortable earbuds?
For the general case, no one is going to die if they don't buy whatever Facebook craps out as a watch. I'd say it's more a false dichotomy, bordering on hyperbole. Not "wear this or die", but "wear this, and if you have bad genetics and/or lifestyle, you might be one of the small percentage of people who are prompted to make a life-saving trip to the cardiologist."

But you imply a good point: Apple has already set FB's price ceiling. A Series 3 is, what, US$300 now? Another $100 gets you latest-and-greatest. I'm guessing competing on price is going to be tough, so what outstanding feature will the FB watch have to make it competitive? Oh, and don't forget that Apple isn't the only one to worry about. My bet on who is in 2nd place on wearables is probably Garmin, and Garmin will come and nibble on you at the other end. It'll be interesting to watch (thanks, I'll be here all week...).
Problems created by mismanagement tend to have solutions that are hard to swallow. The sooner we swallow the pill the better off we’ll all be.
Not all of them, just these, created just to label someone whose views some people don't like. It is "strange" for me, because it's heavily loaded, it includes a false premise (that the victim is transphobic), and is used towards people who have nothing to not only with "radical" feminism (whatever this would mean), but any feminism at all.
> another friend of mine basically refuses to date anymore because he thinks the sort of culture of Tinder dating is a waste of time that favors women disproportionately.

My female friends (I'm male) with online dating profiles have shown me their matches and conversations, and it's bleak. They all mostly have an average profile and still receive thousands of likes/hearts/swipes and messages, but the mean amount of effort from men messaging them is zero to none.

Maybe your friend considers the situation of having fewer women on dating apps as somehow "favoring" their gender, but from what I've seen and heard, sorting through an inbox of unsolicited genital photos and copy pasta pickup artist lines is not something most women would say they enjoy spending their time doing.

If instead he's referring to apps like Bumble where the woman has to make the first move, see above for why some apps choose to operate with that model.
People keep repeating this but bitcoin is well over a decade old now. And it still has no value other than, well, "value". That first day you got internet in, say, 1997, you were in touch with people far away and could look all kinds of shit up and make webpages and pull godwins on usenet and download winzip from tucows and it was amazing.

I think your only argument holds, slightly, if by "real value" you mean "money".
Would you rather own 100% of a $100M company or 1% of a $10B co.?
My accountant was saying in 1998 he never bought stock but this eternal new money machine he could not miss out on. I made a shitload those days because I invest but am a huge stoploss fan; I did not advise him anything but he lost a few 100k and only recently recovered. The internet was a good idea though (he sold the shares though at about the lowest point so recovered is not from shares). As were tulip bulbs were but just not at that price. So who knows this will stabilize at $2/btc in 20 years and it will be normal. In the meanwhile, I buy and set stoploss and invest long sure bets, like msft in, well msft and such. But those have stoploss as well as this will all crash. The real question is: which assets will crash to $0 and which don't. As the latter you can just hold and you get your money back eventually. I had oracle (forgive me) and msft as cases of the latter in the 2000 crash and Borland/inprise as cases of the former. I had stoploss high on inprise and low on the others and made bizarre profits on inprise and higher but more long term profits on the others. If you ask me, these 'look over periods of 20-30 years' are smart with some assets and basically, imho, insane with others and I believe inprise and btc belong in the latter category. Stoploss (and you just adjust it UP over time) will save your hide. Noone listens though as it is not 'what real traders do'. Good luck with that.

Amazon's policy is exactly the same as Microsoft. Is Google proper remote now?
> My main criticism to cryptocurrencies is that they're mostly unbacked.

The fact of a currency being "backed" by something went away in 1933. No currency is "backed".

> This makes me think cryptocurrencies are mainly about speculation more than rebelling against governments and central banks.

Yeah, they are about speculation. Whether investing in crypto rather than some other financial asset constitutes "rebelling" is subjective.
I think there is a disconnect between advertising and what a nice setup can look like.

> I’m well aware that if you want your health data to remain private, smartwatches are certainly risky. But we’re way past that now. These devices can and have saved lives, and despite some early skepticism, wearables aren’t going anywhere.

So the main thrust is: wearables are shit and leaky, but they save lives [citation needed] you can be as insecure as you like, unless you're facebook.

I mean surly the scum that make crappy adware riddled android phones are worse? or is it not as fashionable to dunk on them? Especially as only poor people buy those?
Because if someone comes up with the ability to counterfeit crypto that's it for that crypto. There's no need for it to continue, unlike a nations currency.

You easily can get nothing done.

In my case I use Cloudflare Tunnel [0] which is an actual agent installed on my web servers that creates a reverse tunnel back to Cloudflare's network.

This creates a complete disconnection between whatever TLS handshakes are happening between the client and my CDN (Cloudflare) and whatever's going on locally between the tunnel daemon and my local web server process.

For example you can choose to run these tunnels without HTTPS at all on your local webserver (bearing in mind that you have no inbound firewall ports open to the webserver box - no traffic leaves that box unencrypted), the daemon directly proxies your local-only HTTP port on the machine over an encrypted tunnel to Cloudflare and via whatever flavour of Cloudflare TLS you like to your end-users.

Same way, trusted cash exchange intermediaries. localbitcoins seems to be exactly this.

And for bitcoin it is much easier than for traditional systems, as trust only need to cover exchange operation.

From my perspective, the tactic misleads the stake holders about the real priorities. It's a deception and corrodes trust in the organization. The article even describes it as a 'bureaucratic judo trick.' It really seems to me as analogous to the micro-services guy or the architect guy insisting their way prevails.
Generally yes in the case that other parties help out — for example Marea was Microsoft, Facebook, and Telexius. Telexius sells capacity on that cable.

Others are Google exclusive, and they do not currently sell capacity to my knowledge.
Much of what the media, particularly the tech media "reports" on is really just paid advertising.

>Numbers on Portal sales are hard to come by.

That's buried in the article. If the sales numbers are hard to come by, how do they know it's a hit? Because Facebook says so? Questionable.
There is corporate version for around $700 that does just that.

I would choose to share my medical history with strangers over my data from most other digital services, from my Google search history to my private messages to my emails.

> Maybe for yourself, you don't care about that, but I think most people consider this sort of thing deeply personal and private.

Part of the reason I asked. Why are your conversations less private and personal to you/others/this journalist than what is probably a mundane medical history or in this case, just a pulse?

The discrimination angle certainly makes sense though as a plausible fear.
What is strange is this has been going on since the 1950s and it is even invariant in relation to economic cycles.

Hi! If you're looking for a developer friendly indoor mapping suite (both for editing and viewing/navigating), check us out - www.mappedin.com

Totally agree that it's an overlooked problem and we've been quietly working to solve it for years. Early on we realized the key was to build "everyman" mapping tools that facility managers can use themselves to keep data up to date.

We're increasingly focused on our developer-facing tools and I'd love any feedback if you end up taking a look! (https://www.mappedin.com/mapping/sdks/)
Not my experience with PayPal and I'm very happy that we now have another option.

Yea its i2c.
> the real problem though is the schedule the world runs on.

Yes!

People have different circadian rhythms. Also teenagers tend to naturally be night owls. But the world doesn’t care much.

Even having schedule flexibility at work, if you have kids that you need to take to school, then you have to follow their schedule.
This sounds out of touch with reality.

First of all, a social club for dating? Really? Are you sure you're in the right century? People most frequently meet each other dating the same way they always have, with a twist -- friends, institutions (including the workplace), bars and online dating (that's the twist).

Secondly, 22% of Americans met their spouse at work [1], and 27% have indicated they'd be open to it [2]. Does that mean that it's always a reasonable idea, or that it's free of risks and messiness? No and no. The fact that it's sometimes playing with fire isn't going to deter anybody.

Pandemic notwithstanding, Americans spend so much time at work in deeply intimate psychological settings building deep social bonds that it's only natural that romance often develops.

This looks distressingly similar to https://blog.zulip.com/2021/03/20/zulip-cloud-security-incid... .

Klarna: Our app is configured specifically to avoid inadvertent caching through the use of cache control directives found in the HTTP standard (no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate). However, the CDN configuration can at times override the app configuration.

Zulip: Zulip separately marks its responses as non-cacheable, both to prevent private data from being sent to the wrong user, and also to prevent stale data from being sent even to the right user. Indicating that a response is not cacheable is the purpose of Zulip’s Cache-Control header: max-age=0 [...] no-cache [...] no-store [...] must-revalidate [...] private [...] CloudFront usually respects the Cache-Control and Expires headers, but with one critical exception when receiving multiple similar requests at roughly the same time

It looks like Klarna's main website uses CloudFront, so I bet this was the exact same thing.
I see this too. One thing that has struck me lately, is the similarity between the addictive nature of gambling and video games. Going to a casino once in a while or playing some video games with friends is fine. But the amount of time some people spend on video games really mimics a gambling addiction, except it's less frowned upon because they're mostly losing time instead of money. But if you consider the opportunity cost, they're losing a lot of money too.
It's certainly believable that women don't enjoy dating apps, but I think it's difficult to make the case that it's equally hard for them (in terms of successfully getting a date) when they have thousands of matches and many men I know have none.
Sure, but that is also not a question FFA should be answering.
Most CDNs out there maintain a pool of HTTPS keep-alive'd connections to backing services. This eliminates the roundtrip needed for establishing a TCP connection and the roundtrip (or two) needed for setting up TLS.

Another reason a no-caching CDN can help is when that CDN has a higher quality connection to the backing service than the user has. A lot of eyeball networks out there might have terrible transit connectivity to the global Internet during peak hours (because that cost money), but generally have high quality settlement-free peering with CDNs. By paying a CDN, you're effectively paying them to provide better Internet connectivity to your users.
> So here we are now, about 30 years later, trying to fix the security inconveniences caused by this manifesto.

That sounds backwards to me. It wasn't a "manifesto" that caused that "surge", it was the actual software being written.

Free software beat the world. Free (system) software is overwhelmingly written in C. At least part of an argument like this needs to nod to the fact that free software written in C beat the world because... C was a better choice? Certainly it was in the 90's.
Just to be clear:

What's your source for the claim that a typical Roman citizen is white? That's a pretty bold statement. Much bolder than the relatively non-controversial statement that Rome had a diverse population.

You also seem to be really caught up on senators. If you read the entire article, you'll note very little attention was given to senators.

Even so, that is not what the original argument was. The argument was that Rome was not homogeneous. Even in a heterogeneous society, there will be trends towards looking one way or another. The problem is simply with depicting all of Rome as (essentially) British.

Nobody has mentioned China or Zimbabwe, so this last argument is a lazy straw man.
That is largely Apple-specific, as most other OEMs use off the shelf chips. Even in that case though, the distribution doesn’t exist for many components to be available to individuals or repair shops, since the component makers only want to deal with their couple dozen big customers directly.

> Part of each payment will be converted into GLM to generate a Proof-of-Usage token that will give you certain decision rights within Wildland’s unique governance system.

I found this while researching if GLM was their own token, and it actually appears that it isn't their own token, but it's possible Wildland was created to show off GLM: https://old.reddit.com/r/GolemProject/comments/i4qwng/wildla...

Related to that, this is a lot less marketing-speak than their website: https://old.reddit.com/r/GolemProject/comments/nxfufh/golem_... but I still don't follow the relationship of "payment" to "decision rights" or "governance"
