Yeah I totally agree, but on Google scale and for OTP codes, using middleman is not good practice. Especially with MNO blacklists etc, as they are actively fighting grey routes.

Also with direct carrier connections you have options like one-shot SMS. If it is not delivered it is not retried. (which is useful for delays)

Delay is a big problem when you have many middleman, imagine you are sending OTP code, let's say route is delayed somehow, user didn't get the message, he requested another one, then first one is delivering, but you've already invalidated that, user enters wrong code, requests again, until he locks out :)

No one can be good at everything, so everyone is mediocre at some things. I imagine a lot of people who end up with 'mediocre lives' probably could have done well in one thing or another, but they either never found it (or never dug deep enough into that area to realize it), or their life circumstances made it difficult for them to properly pursue it / they had some bad luck while pursuing it that scared them away from it (Hi! That's me and board game design. I think I'm pretty good at it, but I've had terrible luck getting publishers to take a chance on me the past six years, despite having multiple games that have won design awards).

Also very few people will be remembered for very long after their death, outside of a few people close to them. There's too much input out there for people to dwell on the memories of someone for too long. I hate to admit it, but I don't think about my grandparents (who are all dead now) as much as I probably should, and they were all great people.

I mean, how much do most people in a given field know about most of the great thinkers in their field outside of their last name on a few concepts, or maybe they read an article or a book about them once? And even if it wasn't them that came up with it, would possibly another person come up with the same or similar idea a bit further out? Newton and Leibniz separately both came up with the ideas of Calculus (with different approaches) around the same time, for example.

I also think it's getting harder to make discoveries or do great (novel) things nowadays. Most of the low-hanging fruit has been pulled in science and computer science, for example, and most of what's available now are big huge hard to solve problems (see Millenium Prize Problems[1]) or unified theory problems, or can't really be discovered without better and more expensive instruments (more powerful telescopes and microscopes, particle accelerators, etc), so it's a lot harder for someone to come up with something really novel nowadays. It's still out there, it just requires a lot more effort and can't easily be done with homemade or budget instruments.

So I wouldn't beat yourself up about it too much. Keep trying, sure, but understand you might not succeed, and come to terms with that.

Not even mentioning the hardware bits, I have been collaborating with postmarketOS for a while now, and believe that the main thing we need to make those devices longer-lasting would be an unlockable bootloader by law.

This sounds so logical (why cannot I run, by voiding the warranty, any code I want on my machine, whatever it is?), yet apparently so hard to make openly illegal, since the problem is barely acknowledged in general.
Although I didn't meet my wife in the same office (as a developer 95% of my colleagues have always been male), if it wasn't for the office where I had to go every day, I wouldn't have met her.

She worked in the same building for another company and we often saw each other at a nearby restaurant at lunch time. Often as in every single day. After some time (months) I was able to find someone in the other company that told me her name, searched her on facebook add her and we started talking first online, then of course we went to lunch together since we were in the same building. The rest is history as they say.
Hell, just start a twitter a la Carmack.
Government should collect before investors, otherwise you create a perverse incentive on the part of investors to ignore malfeasance.
The fact you have no counter argument says more about you.
Eh, I think it’s worth the old college try of “anything new please” without further corroboration. Everything we’ve tried at large scales has sucked for the majority of the population.

AS an ex-IBMer, I can tell you that there are hundreds of thousands who are directly affected but most of them would be frustrated but not overly concerned. Like in a government, they will end up making a scapegoat out of a few minions but the leadership will remain unscathed. It’s an organisation where everyone is responsible but none would be Accountable.

As computers get more powerful as times go on, surely the cost of running the service should be going down not up? I wonder if the contract to run the COM registry is every re-tendered, or will it stay with Verisign forever.
To solve a similar problem I nuked the site with uBlock Origin. I don't see anything on YouTube now other than a search bar. I never had an addiction problem with YouTube, but I certainly had an annoyed one.

Maybe because those are examples of people that didn't have any significant work that can be admired?

We remember the works of Euclid, Plato, Socrates, Newton, Shakespeare, the Wright Brothers, Einstein etc.

I imagine none of these people spared much thought as to whether they were mediocre or would be remembered. They just did what they felt compelled to do.
Strange how you're assuming that your personal anecdotal experience is applicable to everyone else.
Sure, but what if it were an attack which exposes a lot of private information? Just saying that not every kind of attack has a good outcome.
people who set up websites that they don't want tracked back to them - historically speaking gay people might want to be anonymous in all sorts of scenarios and for all sorts of reasons.

I'm working helping out an artistic collective in which the various members are anonymous to various degrees. There may need to be anonymity in paying for services - this is an obvious necessity nowadays - for example the whole recent situation over the 'I sexually identify as an attack Helicopter' story https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Sexually_Identify_as_an_Atta...

so - off the top of my head:

often abused or oppressed minorities.

artists.

The original article in this thread is about him encouraging big oil to NOT be personally responsible, to lie and spread disinformation so that they can keep making money. To prevent rational discourse. You are glad that such a man exists, that means you and Berman are both enemies of the huamn race. Hopefully you do not drive your children to suicide as well by being as evil as him.
No, no, don’t mistake correlation with causation. They just always come together.

Note: I have no idea what TPM even is.
I unfortunately don't have a good answer to that. I also believe that a carbon price, together with regulations, is our best bet. I'm however rather pessimistic when it comes to preventing catastrophic warming.
This is a bit of a click-baity article title. He went broke because he assumed he was getting a payout and did stupid things.

From the bottom of article:

Early in the Life Partners saga, Mr. McPherson was so beguiled by the lure of whistleblower millions that he essentially quit his day job to become a full-time whistleblower, using his accounting and life-insurance knowledge to spot potential miscreants...In 2018, he took out a $1 million litigation-funding loan at very high interest rates, secured by the Life Partners whistleblower claims, to pay back taxes and continue to pursue his cases.

And then there's always this quote:

Edwards : Why the big secret? People are smart. They can handle it.

Kay : A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow.
Oh I know, but there are also a lot of people making claims to expertise they don't have and spreading lies. Some of them are real experts in other fields and so have respect there.

> Counter-counter-counterpoint: if you separate that documentation out, you'll guarantee it getting stale.

In my experience, having the documentation in the source code has very little effect on whether it gets stale. Unless you make checking for documentation changes an explicit step in the code review, documentation is going to get stale no matter where it is. And if you do have such a step in code review, then it's relatively immaterial whether the documentation is in a wiki or in formatted comments in the source.

> High locality - you're likely to spot the documentation as you read the code it pertains to, because the comments are right there, mixed with the code.

That actually brings to mind one of my complaints about relying on documentation that's inline with the source code. It's often too local. I can usually read a function and figure out what it's doing. Occasionally, when a function is doing something strange or counterintuitive, some documentation can be helpful, and I definitely acknowledge there's a role for comment-based documentation there.

More often, though, I don't want documentation to tell me what this or that function does, I want documentation to show me the big picture. What are all the components of this system? How do they communicate? How does user input propagate? Where does validation occur? These questions are almost never answered by comment-based documentation because of the locality principle that you cite.

In addition, the answers to these sorts of questions aren't likely to go out of date. After all, it's not like you're completely rearchitecting how validation works every week (and if you are, documentation is the least of your worries). These sorts of high-level questions are best answered on a wiki or some other tool that supports things like diagrams and well formatted prose text.

Yes, in an ideal world, we'd have both. Inline documentation which documents the design at a "micro" level and a wiki or some other knowledge-base which documents the design at a "macro" level. But we don't live in an ideal world. We live in a world where developers are pressed for time, and documentation is most often written after the fact. In this world, I would much rather have the wiki than the inline docs. I can, with a little bit of effort, figure out what each individual function is doing. It's the high-level "how it all fits together" design where I require assistance.
The real problem is that it seems a small collapse of the open area next to the pool over a parking level propagated to a large portion of the structure in seconds.

I suspect slabs coming off pillars took away horizontal support from pillars on the "good" side of the slab. Then those pillars came away from adjacent slabs.

There's a number of warehouse rack collapses where a single failure takes down all of them. I suspect a similar mechanism.
Isn't all marketing a form of propaganda?
Thanks!

"However, if—as the data seem to show—extreme cold is relatively unimportant, then a few degrees of warming will not yield a large reduction in cold-related mortality. Moreover, if extreme heat is important, then the same few additional degrees might cause a substantial increase in heat-related mortality."

The study warns that global warming won't appreciably reduce deaths due to cold, but might substantially increase deaths due to heat. Again, the current 20-fold factor between deaths due to cold and heat says nothing about future mortality.

Ask HN: Who is hiring beginning career software engineers?
The who is hiring at HN is great. But almost all of the companies at these posts are looking for experienced people. Are there companies apart from the big ones, that are hiring people for whom this will be their first software engineering job?

Along with new graduates, this is specially needed for people who want to switch from research to industry like me. I am willing to go through the whiteboard coding but I have to get at least an interview call.

If you are interested in this position, please email derek@eternal.gg.
Well, if you have a path to wrapping this up as a VST, by all means.

I was wondering how you feel about the idea of taking advantage of the fact that your frontend can run in any browser, in maybe considering a "remote gui in the browser of your choice on any LAN client" kind of thing.

The processor itself could be headless (not sure how Elementary is implemented, I see you mention node.js, just having an immediate reaction, maybe it already is gui-host-agnostic network-aware in that sense, by default, open a port to the lan, etc)
