DANE is a kludge that should be put to bed, not promoted as a solution to a problem which shouldn't exist.

STARTTLS exists for two reasons (https://www.fastmail.com/help/technical/ssltlsstarttls.html):

1. Wanting to accept mail insecurely.

2. Not wanting to use two different TCP port numbers to send and transfer mail.

To solve these problems they created STARTTLS. But obviously, STARTTLS isn't actually secure (even though that was the point of supporting TLS). So to make it secure, it's suggested to use DANE - a standard built on a different procotol, requiring a feature that is controversial, potentially dangerous, and not widely implemented. So you can use a kludge (STARTTLS) with a kludge (DANE) to send and transfer mail securely. But should you?

Since 2018, RFC8314 says that e-mail submission should use implicit TLS, not STARTTLS (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8314#section-3). Therefore the use of STARTTLS, and the use of DANE to make it secure, are deprecated. So while you shouldn't use DANE for anything seriously, you really shouldn't use it for SMTP.

Do folks in your markets use LinkedIn?

One thought is sure, you save time by saying the candidates are open BUT on LinkedIn recruiters can get all the CV AND personal info. They can know they are real people. They can bulk email 50 interesting looking candidates and get 10 responses from people passively searching and forward those to a hiring manager.

I wonder if you’re optimizing for the real bottleneck? Recruiter time isn’t THAT much of a bottle neck AND they have tools to overcome this problem.

I also suspect recruiters want to use fewer familiar tools, not more tools

I trust you know the space/your problem though almost certainly more than we would. Best of luck!
I agree on the distinction, but the main point is that tiktok and youtube cannot be compared for the core functionality.

a better comparison is the conservative leaning 'rumble' - without google's massive support, it stands no chance of winning against youtube.

parler was the alternative to twitter and fb, and see how it was cut down for no real reason, though at the time, the entire media made it seem as if it was the most logical thing to do.

later one finds that there is more extremist stuff in fb and twitter..

also, it was interesting how all the biggies - Amazon, Google, Apple, Visa all joined hands to squelch Parler an opponent of their enemy (for ad dollars) Twitter...

speaking loosely, this is quite an example of a cartel.

The musical instrument practice app Melodics has a streak mechanic that extends your streak if you play at least 5 minutes that day. The interval is NOT adjustable.

I'm beginning to think that mobile phones and technology for young people is a horrible experience of being answerable without notice to unlimited opportunities for more powerful people to impose themselves on still incredibly experienced just lately still minors.

because simultaneously adults have been inundated with the news of the world and it isn't good, and as a result we're probably genuinely more anxious about our kids than for several generations (my father would be 114 this year, if he could be alive, and his stories of growing up pre Depression in London still make my hair stand on end and thank god for the mercies we do have. Age has made me sentimental and actually interested in what religion is about. But I also recognised both developments as being a deliberate blurring without any definite refocus, of all the accumulated worries into a indefinite emotional haze. If this is necessary for forbearance when my grandchildren err stupidly yet repairably, I'll take it, religion and all. But I don't remember my father in his nineties getting any fuzzier, only sharper. So I hope to overcome the apparent overload.

Still, whatever the reasons, I think we're letting our children's intelligence become too thinly spread across distractions when we are suffering from similar confusion, and I believe it's our job to clear more of the post modern clutter.

Question for people in 'Mature enough' Orgs who actually use this advanced tech/concept....

Do you watch videos like these on your employers time? And then do you have like 5-6 other colleagues also watch the video? or perhaps book a meeting room (virtually to all watch the talk, make popcorn, etc..)

and then once its done, do you guys have a day to come back around and discuss its concepts, like a reading group (what if stuff is burning, PRs, SRE tickets, milestones? is time allocated for this stuff? is it lowest of priority to keep abreast of this knowledge) . I started reading his DDIA book and I can't fathom solidifying all those concepts without discussing them thoroughly with other engineers over at least a month or so.

Basically, curious how orgs 'ingest' these large ideas into their software eng knowledge practices, are there initiatives? etc... or are you just banking on some engineer to study this stuff on their own time at home.

This topic deserves mention of Gibson affordances, which predate Norman's work

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affordance
At some point, we have to stop looking to our parents, and take responsibility for our own lives.

Until we can do that, we aren't really adults. That's what sets adults and children apart: responsibility. Children are not responsible for their own lives; rather, they live under the guardianship of adults.

Adults are responsible.

And it is a hate crime that we have probably two generations in the West that have been raised to be actively irresponsible: to reject the mantle of responsibility, and instead spend their time loudly blaming... everybody but themselves.

It doesn't matter how well-deserved that blame might be! Blame itself is toxic.

Look, I get it. My parents did a number on me, too. But I also recognize that they too were broken in many ways, and that they did the best they could with what they had.

Yes, that means they gave me a lot of shitty advice. But it was good advice to their younger selves.

That's why I'm not angry with them anymore. Not for the cheating, or the divorce, or any of the rest. Because I am adult enough to take ownership over my own life.

If they're not happy about it then why did they do that?
Why are people critical of being supported by your parents in your 30's? Because that's not "normal" or "proper" or unfair on those who don't have that support? Or for a real reason that's bad according to some fundamental moral standard? We're all supported by our parents to some extent. Why is it so wrong for late-support outliers to exist? That sounds like being a teenager when everyone is trying to make it look like they're independent but really their mum still does their washing and cooks their dinner because it's shameful to be supported by your parents.

In my country, due to high house prices, adult professionals often buy their first house with money from their parents because they can't otherwise afford it. It's call "The bank of mum and dad". Is that irresponsible? Is it OK only after it's become common but was wrong for the first few people who did it?
> cheap plastic with flashing lights and sounds

To be fair, kids don’t care about cheap plastic, and they love flashing lights and sounds.

Expensive plastic toys have the same flashing lights and sounds.

Though I’ll admit that even more expensive wooden toys don’t, they generally still try to incorporate play with light and sound into the toy somehow.
Unfortunately this approach has served the media well. As a whole they aren't held accountable for their lies or, at best, wrong predictions. People still watch/read them, which generates significant ad revenue.

> Carpentry/home building is a natural fit, money season is summer not winter

I understand your point (and it's a good one) but it lends itself to a different lifestyle, one that such a ski bum might not be interested in.

That is, if you're going to live year-round in Boulder, for example, and are looking to establish roots then it makes sense. When you're young, that's not necessarily what you're looking for. There's a freedom of sorts of being able to fit everything you own into your car so you can go rock-climbing in the summer, skiing in the winter and so on.

If you have a trade, you typically have tools, and a work vehicle and benefit from having a reputation, a network, contacts and repeat customers. It's not better or worse, just more rooted.

But there are jobs you can get working in the off-season to support yourself of course. Yachting springs to mind. While the Caribbean season overlaps with the North American winter, the Mediterranean season and Asian seasons don't.

Fitness / goal oriented cyclists have objective means to measure progress, for example pedals or cranks which measure your actual power output. This combined with your body weight is a ubiquitous measure of progress.

More expensive bikes are more comfortable and may boost your speed a bit depending on circumstance. To assume that people who decide to invest a bit in a healthy, fun activity are ignorant of such basic metrics seems pretty cynical.

I would urge you to dig deeper because there is an enormous amount of value in this type of investment.

"Not that it matters to Carlson’s critics, but odds favor the NSA scandal being true."

What? How about Carlson knew the information was out there and tried to get in front of it by cherry picking an easy target.

That would be like me sending an inflammatory email at work and then realizing it could be leaked, so writing all my co-workers "I've just found out I'm the target of an illegal NSA spy campaign, so if anything comes out about me, that's where it came from."

What a bunch of nonsense.
> in San Fran

That’s a choice, and exactly what I’m talking about. Everything is a trade-off and while you can’t control everything, you can control a lot of things.

One example I like to think of in this situation is a person I knew from my childhood, who struggled. If you asked him, he'd tell you how hard it is out there, and how many times life had giving him the short end of the stick. In many ways, he was right. However, when you start looking at his choices, you begin to see a pattern.

He had a hard time living on his own, and had to move back into his mom's house at one point. If you asked him, it'd be due to a roommate situation that fell through, sticking him with a lease on a 2BR apartment that bled him dry. But if you dug in, you'd find out he signed that lease after his potential roommate backed out, and he never tried to fill the second bedroom. He was paying for a 2BR on near-minimum wage salary. He could not afford this, he should have never made this decision, and yet if you ask him, it's the result of the bad hand he got dealt due to the roommate.

Was it tough, having a roommate back out? Yes. Did he need to sign that 2BR lease anyway? No. Did he need to leave the second BR empty for the duration of the lease? No.

possibly the typical reaction of the mothers I know to their son reacting defensively to their calling, would be petrified what horrors are going on bad enough to make their precious child and light of their lives not want their mother to hear.

I know that it's never anything like that, but I have really toned down my vignette of a maternal reaction. You just never know how important you are - you said this yourself I only can't emphasise it enough. Emotional telepresence as once advertising had it, belongs to a boomer utopia, in my opinion.
While I grant you minimum wage isn't livable almost anywhere in the US (in case that was your point), that's not really what I was talking about.

So many people living paycheck-to-paycheck are living well beyond the minimum. Multiple cars, huge house, private schools, college savings plans, vacation homes, expensive hobbies and so on.

Part of this trap is people convincing themselves they need all these things.

In my experience, this often springs from their own childhoods, remembering what they didn't have and over-correcting for that by making sure their kids do not "go without". In doing so, they often rob themselves and their kids of quality time together, which (IMHO) trumps a lot of material things.
> people leak to reporters when they feel like they have no ability to control the direction of their organization

Also people leak to reporters when they feel like they are entitled to control the direction of their organization even if they sell all the stocks immediately after the vesting.

Unpopular opinion: employees should express their concerns, and they are usually heard. And if the company decided to go against wishes of salaried employees, that's simply because the company exists to maximize profits of shareholders, not to make employees happy, and managers report to shareholders, not to employees.

If one disagrees with management decision, there are two options: trust management judgement (perhaps they are better qualified to make certain decisions), or work elsewhere, in a company whose management they trust. But leaking e-mails is not just illegal, it is immoral.

This does not apply of course to problems like, for example, intentional significant violation of the laws by the company.
