Hi,

Sales Director, previously head BDM roles and direct sales.

You are correct in thinking that it is a pivotal skill, anyone can learn. To add some simplified advice you learn by doing (as you've guessed).

You can read books, take classes etc, but so much of the practise is about interrupting the scenario and adjusting.

To get some practise with a full-time job, living abroad etc, do what you can. Obviously you aren't meeting in person, but try your hand at email outreach, cold calling, linkedIn messaging.

Unsure if you have a product or service to sell as yet, if not, make one up, think about whom the customers are, research the companies, understand the structure, try and understand how a purchasing decision is made at ABC company, and work backwards.

Never assume anything, details details details.

The whole interview is fantastic. On topic for the HN crowd.
It's not silly hypothetical there have already been devices that used secure boot to lock out alternative OS and allowing third parties a say in what software is run is literally the entire point of remote attestation.

The last sentence is particularly disappointing. The article's analysis is correct and not particularly complicated it stands on its own regardless of whatever bias you possess.

I didn’t say either of those things. But in the interest of being candid, I think it’s harmful to categorize mental illness as socially bad versus socially good. My ADHD and Autism are both often characterized as socially bad, and I’m just a person who struggles to take care of myself or maintain communication with my friends and family.

Eloquently put. Put another way, we must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.
> My second thought: Would it be possible to create an app that would disable the texting function while driving? E.g. use the GPS functionality to detect when the phone is moving above a certain speed. Of course, the problem with this solution is that you wouldn't be able to text when riding as a passenger in a car or bus.

There are apps that do exactly this.
I got this book recommendation from NPR many years ago:

Prosecutorial discretion needs to be considered a crime against humanity.
In my case because I have been told a few times it is patronizing to point out the "obvious." I would prefer (but not expect) the style you discuss as well (as I am not all that comfortable with an assumed base of knowledge for documentation), but I have faced far more negative reaction to that than positive.
Mysql, Postgres and Oracle are closer than ever in functionality, but I don’t think postgres/mysql alone can compare to “Oracle”, but if you compare postgres+greenplum/citus/XL or mysql+Vittess to Oracle+RAC that’s pretty close, but you’ll probably need to choose from a few extras to get all the way there. The key difference is Oracle is doing it all in one monolithic stack.
So the hate speech they seek to quell - the groups espousing it will simply quote old books and sayings to push their agenda.

I see where this is going, and sadly some will use the old words to add clout to their hate rather than just espousing as an ignorant fool.

unintended consequences coming soon.

Norman Bourlag's primary breakthrough was to cross-breed to increase yields of wheat. Wheat was never supposed to be where people get their micronutrients; wheat provides a baseline of carbs and a moderate amount of protein (to supplement some other primary protein source).
I dunno about that.. imagine npm, but with millions of one line TeX packages.
That codahale article you linked is surprising. Is that just a toy example or is it actually viable? I wouldn't think a "cryptographic" hash of one input sharing any prefix with another input would leak any information about the plaintext due to the avalanche effect. I thought that was possible for encrypted values but not hashed values.

chrismorgan's comment about plaintext only is what I would've assumed the attack was limited to for passwords.
MySQL directly competes.

But Postgres and MSSQL are the true equivalents, you’re right.

Correctness is hard was my main comment. There’s a whole class of other database types, but oracle can do NOSQL document storage just fine.

Postgres and MSSQL can too, especially the former, but there are some weird quirks, like having documents larger than 16KiB means they’re stored off-row in a compressed TOAST table. Which hurts performance a lot.
I think the hidden scrollbars are great. They remove clutter, yet are always readily available when needed.

Scrolling in MacOS is one of my favourite things about the UI compared with various versions of Linux and Windows I've used. This is due to the two-finger swipe gesture being really well done and the scroll bar being available when needed.

I used Linux as my primary desktop non-stop for 19 years, and in the end the scrolling had got worse. The Ubuntu desktop weird scroll handle thing was awful. MacOS scrolling was so much more ergonomic than that it convinced me to switch. I still develop primarily on Linux, but prefer to do it over SSH even though I have a Lunux desktop when I want it.

It doesn't take long using MacOS to develop an instinct for scrolling things with two-finger swipe, and scrolling is generally a very safe thing to do so trying it is harmless. The way swipe scrolling is independent of the focused window is just right, and the scrollbar which appears is easily grabbed on the occasions it's needed.

There are some flaws in the assertions and conclusion! They were taking only raw numerical data without context.
At the time that they started with the vaccination, the infection rate in Israel was very high, so even from those who got the vaccine (and most of them had already preexisting conditions) some died, which most likely would have died anyway, but they included those deaths as caused by vaccination which is not really reliable!

In order for this data to be valid they would have had to take to separate groups in a neutral settings and follow them.

The conclusion is a great exaggeration!

* If the conclusion would have been true, then there would have been many more deaths. But in Israel they continued to vaccinate the people with 4.5 million more vaccination beyond the first million mentioned in the article, and the number of deaths dropped to zero!!!
If the conclusion of the article was true then there would have been increase in the number of deaths after vaccination. But the result was the opposite (since mid-April the daily number of deaths was a single digit with large intervals of no deaths at all!).

If you want to control non-smart wireless home appliances, you can actually make the Raspberry Pi GPIO do it without the Bond Home.[1] It’s a huge hack, to put it lightly.

I don’t think the OP is actually doing any sort of control though. I personally would recommend a Zigbee door sensor as part of a Zigbee + Home Assistant (open source) automation system which gives you the flexibility of not having to run wires and not having to write code to configure the automations.

> [...] CJK, ideograms, emojis, and many other non-alphabetical languages do not have order.

Uh, no? Most if not all scripts do have letter order, CJK(V) "ideographs" included. The actual problem is twofold: the letter order might not be unique, and the word order might be completely different from the letter order. CJK(V) "ideographs" exhibit both problems---their word order is phonetic, while letter order is based on shapes and different dictionaries use different rules---and it is very common in Chinese and Japanese that the string meant to be sortable has pronunciation attached (e.g. Wikipedia).

Also, believe it or not, even emojis do have order too [1], albeit arbitrary one.

It suggests exactly that thing. I suggest you read the study again.

Dangerous to whom?

Not to those in power.

It’s precisely because it’s dangerous that it is so popular; the masses love the idea of their ‘enemies’ being muzzled.

The pernicious aspect is not that people fail to recognize the danger; it’s that they fail to see those in power aren’t actually on their side.

There's pushback on touch screens in Car UI. Some people have said (I am paraphrasing) the screen is innately more confusing than dedicated functional mechanical knobs and switches.

texting demands a huge amount of brain power. It's anything but a casual act. If it was a Cherry-Red alpha keyboard on the wheel, we might have a counter argument but really? it is still super demanding. It does not relate in anyway to speed, or gear, or revs, or situational awareness.

breakfast:

6 raw eggs
lemon juice (1 lemon, squeezed)
378 calories in total, of which 227 are fat and 144 protein. just enough sugar to help you digest it without bloat. awesome anabolic effects from the eggs.

lunch:
6 raw eggs
200ml whole unhomogenised milk (raw if possible)
similar effect but even more anabolic

dinner:
200-300g of fresh steak (beef) cooked blue. can be replaced with lamb or other nutritious meats, but certainly not chicken breast which has nearly no nutritional value whatsoever compared to something like sardines
When this was first discussed in the early 2000s the very legitimate worry was that it would be introduced as optional and gradually become mandatory terminating in machines where the user had as little control over the hardware/software as a game console.

There is no reason to believe that this wasn't implemented thus far because of the high ethical standards Microsoft folks have historically adhered to and while we are to believe Microsoft has turned over a new leaf much of the current leadership was involved at the executive level in old bad Microsoft.
Sounds really cool, do you have a write up somewhere?
MathJax can also (apparently) render MathML on Chrome.

Maybe the answer is:

Write maths notation on your site with MathML. (You'd probably want to preprocess LaTeX notation into MathML some way, because MathML isn't fun to write by hand in the same way that septic tanks aren't fun to unblock by hand.) This will be displayed natively in Safari/Firefox, and be accessible to screen readers (apparently.. I don't use one so don't know what it's like in practice).

Serve MathJax to Chrome users so they can see your maths.

I added automation to my garage door, but not before calibrating (and carefully testing) the force limits on the motor, and installing (and carefully testing) an infrared trip sensor which integrates into the motor.

When a garage door doesn't close when requested (or does open when not requested) it will spray notifications to everyone's phone, but it won't try to close the door again.

Fair enough. But I can still post comments?
Many garage door motors only accept a dumb trigger and don't have any mechanism for sending explicit "close" or "open" signals.

I would avoid basic RF wherever possible; stick with a wired connection between the motor and your microcontroller, and use 802.11 wifi for communications. This is where the ESP32 (or ESP8266) makes perfect sense.

Mostly agree. The true lost value is the amount you would've sold the coins at, but that's impossible to know. For most people its safe to assume they would've sold the coins during the first price jump years ago so its still less than peak valuation but probably more than purchase value. For more savvy investors who would take profits and hold the rest, the story could be different. The worse case is people who forgot they had coins years after purchase and went to retrieve them only to find that they've been stolen or permanantly lost. In that case you would lose the current values worth. I was in a similar situation with ETH stores on a laptop I donated to my sister years ago but luckily it was still stored on a partitioned drive and I was able to retrieve it.
I think this is going to end up giving a lot of power to the Android ecosystem. I never felt much compelled to make an Android app but now that I can possibly be as simple as double clicking an .apk and it opens in a window... that changes things quite a bit for me. Microsoft should tap into this synergy and somehow create an IDE that can pump out both Android .apks and Windows apps with the exact same design, usability and build pipeline.
Interestingly, I think an argument could be made that ‘having a disagreement on what an ideal world looks like’ is equivalent to thinking the other is evil or at minimum immoral.

Very neat project! One question about content addressed programs: how does this play out with types that are structurally equivalent but semantically distinct?

For instance, assuming C definitions, an integer and a file descriptor have the same content but probably should not be treated as the same type (I wouldn’t want arithmetic to type check against file descriptors…).

Another scenario: say I have a type “Foo” which contains an integer. In version 1 of my library, this integer must be even, but in version 2 I add support for odd integers, too. The Foo data type, from a content perspective, is unchanged. However, the invariants around it have changed and it’s therefore essential that it becomes a new type. Otherwise, someone might create a Foo containing an odd integer using the version 2 API and then pass it to a function from the version 1 API, resulting in bad things since the version 1 API believes Foo can never contain an odd integer.
That sucks. It's hard for me to imagine working with someone so insecure that they would find a convenient, hierarchical organization of report results by severity patronizing.

It's not sensible to call out non-alphabetic (by which I imagine you exclude all phonemic systems including abjads, syllabaries, etc all of which have full character order.

Even in Latin scripts, sorting order is language-specific and can even be domain specific (e.g. some languages sort phone books differently from dictionaries).

For "CJKV" systems there are ordering methods such as radicals and, as in European languages, ordering can depend on what you want to accomplish.

Password managers are already aware of confirm password fields. There's even an autocomplete attribute to annotate them (use autocomplete="new-password" twice).

Caps lock is a problem even with the ability for a user to see their own password, because they need to take an additional action to unhide their password. Most users won't check, they'll just hit enter. And again, this is something the browser can (and depending on what you're using, already does) do—browsers have shown an icon or tooltip.

On mobile, browsers briefly show the most recent character typed. There's no reason this couldn't be extended to desktop.

And even in the very rare case where you goof with caps lock, there's a forgot password flow that lets you (hopefully) reset your password with the same number of steps as a good OTP flow (which is literally what password reset is). In almost all cases, this is even preferable to adding the complexity (accessibility, L10n, etc) of a "reveal password" toggle OR a confirm password field, because properly implemented it gives the user the chance to use a password manager a second time.

It's absolutely bizarre to expect every single web developer to need to know and implement every possible best practice around password handling of this sort, when it could be handled by the (already semantically annotated) GUI control that the user agent implements.

Trump went on live tv and literally rambled about injecting disinfectants as a possible treatment for the virus. And “ramble” is not opinion, there is no better word for his statement on disinfectants, repeated below. I disagree with the politifact rating, based on what Trump said it should be “mostly true”. And the cdc even conduced a poll, apparently in response to trump’s press conference, that found 4% of respondents ingested or gargled bleach. https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2020-06-05/...

Biden named one of the specific types of disinfectant that trumps followers were literally drinking in response to his ramble about injecting disinfectants. The claim is mostly true.

Here trump’s quote below, HN readers can be the judge if it.

“And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me.”
Yes, I know about edge cases, but I think it's fair to count that as a cultural association with their ancestors over them being PoC.
