Thing is, we've had a unique situation in recent years where trillion dollar companies have seen startup-like growth quarter after quarter. Of course no one can predict the future, but I personally think this growth will stabilize to more traditional levels (see the history of the tech industry up until ~2010 for example). This does not mean that the VC industry will disappear and startup bubbles will stop being a thing. It will just be slightly more "boring" to get a job at Google or Apple the same way it was at Cisco or IBM back in the day, and top talent will want to look elsewhere for more risk and reward.
I had a similar, but opposite experience recently.

I created a Google My Business profile for my business. The business is about 5 years old, but the profile is new.

About one week after creation it was suspended for a "policy violation", but I could appeal.

I sent a single email saying, "I don't know what this was suspended".

4 days later I got an email informing me the suspension had been recinded
Apple’s cafe charges for food, and gives its interns very outdated machines. They’re much stingier than Google, or at least they were.
No, but some firsthand experience in the cyber-security industry, and enough knowledge of how planes work to know its possible in principle. At least, assuming there are bugs in the onboard software, which i've no doubt there are.

EDIT: Planes are absorbing a tremendous amount of input from their environment at all times, both digital and analog. That input is, in many cases, being processed by software. Just to articulate the model a little further.
Paying off an insider to get something done that actually needed to be done seems a hell of a lot less problematic than capriciously destroying someones livelihood with no justification at all as the parent indicates that Google did to them.

There's nothing wrong with taking gobs of money to work at a huge corporation but at least be honest that they are terrible.

My original VIC20 manuals were in French, and I didn't even know English at the time. Still managed to learn stuff from here and there. I can't imaging what I could have done if I had something like this 35 years ago... It's really nicely done.

Let's break this down piece-by-piece.

(1) The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth had elected kings and a parliament. It was a republic to the same degree as Rome or some of the more democratic Greek city-states. The only people who could vote were nobles, but nobles were about 10% of the population. That's about on-par with with Athens or the Roman Empire. Even in the US, only white landowners could vote when it was first founded. That's not too dissimilar from the Polish nobility.

(2) Jews emigrated to the Commonwealth from all over Europe for better treatment. Good treatment? No. Better treatment? Without a doubt.

The Commonwealth wasn't a modern enlightened democracy, but this was 1600, not 1900. It did incredibly well for 1600.
I don't know if that will have the effect you desire. It's not a secret that there are a lot of companies that pay less money than big tech. That doesn't stop people hungering for those big tech jobs. Having specific salary numbers doesn't seem likely to change the situation.

I know plenty of companies that rarely apply any patches or do OS upgrades. I'm talking servers with 4 to 5 year uptimes, still running Ubuntu 16.04 or worse. They don't want to reboot because some dude who left 4 years ago set everything up, often in a non-standard way, and nobody is quite sure how it works. They certainly don't want to be blamed when production goes down. I did a contract job for a very large company that was running a 6 year old distro on a "critical" server and was afraid to do anything beyond changing a password. It's easier to have an outside person do it, so they can blame them when it gets screwed up.
Appreciate checking out. Thank you :)
> If a channel produces a straight-news video that merely shows Trump making an unfounded election-related claim—perhaps during a speech, in an interview, or at a rally—YouTube would punish the channel as if the channel had made the claim, even if no one affiliated with the channel endorsed Trump's lies.

Welcome to our new algorithmic future, brought to us by VCs and software engineering.

Suppression of misinformation is an important function if you want a marketplace of ideas to actually work. However building massively scaled platforms for information dissemination ensures that it will be done by robots with no judgement (either the machine kind, or poorly paid people following a script).
I would use django for this as the built-in admin interface does the things you need, but also because I already know django.

But even if you don't already know it, I think you could still deliver in time - the docs are great, there are plenty of books about it, and a lot of online resources.
No surprise, given the fact that Google execs were literally crying tears of fury and despair in a company meeting after Trump won in 2016 [0]

A common suggestion, and one that I myself chose, is Fastmail. I have nothing but good things to say about them. Fairly inexpensive, fast, and great tools for using a custom domain (which I also highly recommend).
That's just the landing page/blog. The actual webapp you log into and use is a Go API plus Vue frontend
Sorry, I meant the initial preparation of the encrypted data. I believe that this step is also typically rather computationally heavy, although maybe less so than the later computation over the encrypted data.
I’ve found that if you:
1. Go through email support
2. Get them to approve the ads
3. Reference your case number any other time you get disapprovals

That helps
I'm not sure this is entirely true, I see reports that this has more to do with data sourcing and opacity of shareholders[0]. The Kentucky Teachers Retirement fund seems to be one of the largest shareholders who have opted to self-report to Nasdaq. Still interesting, and with this perhaps more so for HN ;)

Off topic: Each and every time I see this product mentioned I first think it's about (my) Stream Deck.

They're a wonderful piece of kit for desktop productivity, it's just fantastic how one may automate lighting, camera, web meeting joins etc.

Edit: Steam Deck itself looks phenomenal, I can't wait for it to become available in Australia. Huge kudos on the work done to help verify what titles are the most accessible on this new platform!

This is interesting. There is nothing I can think of people lie about more rampantly than how long it takes them to get places.

Are there any studies on this? I wonder if it's just people being optimistic, or if they're actually trying to signal that they're better than everyone else because they can get places faster than everyone else (even when they can't).
Both sanction-wise and publicity-wise an ongoing war is a catastrophe for Russia. Also, they invaded from three (!) sides and Kyiv is just about 100km from the border.

There's obviously some propaganda and a thick fog of war going on, but I think we can quite reasonably conclude that this is going far worse for Russia than anyone expected, including Russia.
I don't think that's the case, we have just come out of a pandemic that lasted 2 years. But we also saw Kabul and Afghanistan fall to the Taliban in a day and the Crimea annexation was so quick. There is also the fact that we all thought the Russian Army was a well oiled machine of war. That's why most people are shocked it wasn't an overnight victory, the disparity in power was obvious from the start, that this is day 9 and whilst they are closer to the capital they have suffered heavy, heavy losses. And their tactics and equipment have been shown to be poor, that's even without including their logistics which have been terrible.
Before you get too excited, these aren’t working watches, they are just little models. I was ready to buy some as a flex but was disheartened to find they were mostly props.
I’m becoming more convinced that the future I’ve been planning simply won’t be possible in the decades to come. The world is scarcely recognizable. And having experienced nothing but peace and prosperity makes me feel woefully unprepared.

The WEIRD world is becoming increasingly more authoritarian. I’m already detached from real conflict and scarcity, knowing nothing but peace and prosperity, and the TikTok generation behind me meming about WW3 doesn’t inspire much confidence.
are they still paying you?

Curious about where you see an institutionalized support on the left for election tampering claims, if you have any sources.
> we have just come out of a pandemic that lasted 2 years.

Not really; the most recent wave is subsiding and we’ve (as a nation, not all of us as individuals) just decided we don't care anymore.
The agencies competent enough to know (or guess) certainly aren't going to tell anyone.

It is absolutely possible to get high on your own supply (of authoritarianism, propaganda, and shooting messengers). So it is entirely possible upper echelons of the Russian Military tell Putin what he wants to hear because anyone who doesn't gets an unscheduled dose of Polonium.

It is also possible they are deliberately slow-rolling for various reasons: legitimate supply line issues, testing the waters, being able to pull back if the west responds too strongly, they really just wanted to steal some territory, etc. Being an opportunist is hardly unique.

Perhaps the plan was to invade. If you take the capital within a few days yay: you annexed Ukraine and you'll be done and it will be old news before the west can really respond. If the west sends aircraft carriers and troops you claim you were just protecting ethnic Russians in the border areas. If the invasion bogs down or the economic cost gets too high sign a peace treaty that contains as much as you can get away with and play nice neighbor for a bit while you send in the undercover agents to try another regime change in 5-10 years when everyone has stopped paying attention.

Russia, much like the US, hasn't really faced off against a reasonably modern military with good training and decent weapons systems anytime in the recent past. Even though Ukraine has a smaller military they've been pouring a lot of effort into training, arming, and modernizing since the last time Russian decided to invade and take some territory in 2014. And it wasn't like they were rag-tag religious extremists or a guerrilla force prior to that - they weren't starting from zero.

If Putin and his cronies really did overestimated Russian military capabilities it is still entirely possible for Russia to win the same way the Soviets survived the Wehrmacht: Massive mobilization, throw bodies into the fire, then slowly slog it out for as many years as it takes. That is an option Ukraine doesn't really have. They can't mobilize the same level of industrial production and they can't sustain as many dead sons. No one really knows if top of the line western weapons would level the playing field vs what Russia's defense industry can make.

In the end it might come down to will: does Putin have the will to kill as many Russian soldiers as it takes? Would the rest of his cronies let him if he tried? Will the Russian military accept that? On the Ukrainian side how far are they willing to go? How many citizens will volunteer? How many modern western weapons can they get ahold of? Can they continue disrupting Russian communications and logistics?

As far as I know this is the closest to a true military faceoff using modern weapons and tactics as we've seen. Most recent conflicts have been very asymmetric at every level which doesn't make for apt comparisons.
To be fair they let Trump run with this stuff a long time. It was really only after he led an attempted insurrection based on these "claims" that they shut down his ability to keep spreading this stuff.
I definitely underappreciated how important communication is.
For those of us who lived through the years of "selected not elected" it is a remarkable double standard. Or, being charitable, a remarkable reversal of opinion.

(I tried to slip the expression "flip flop" in there as a joke since that was a popular and widely over-used term at the time too, but I couldn't make it work).

> Once you move decision-making as to how and when arguments are evaluated, from the command’s context to the handlers’, the number of special forms your language requires to do its job drops to zero

That's a gaping fallacy based on the idea that special forms do nothing but control argument evaluation.

For instance, oh, a pattern-matching construct is a "special form", and if you already don't have it, it won't materialize out of thin air just from the fact that function arguments are lazily evaluated.

It can work if functions receive raw, unevaluated syntax. But then you don't have zero special forms: you have de facto as many special forms as there are functions in your image. That whole can of worms is just literally a can of worms. Lisp had that; it was called fexprs.
Ghost of Kyiv is out there still killing off Russian fighters. They are too scared to hang around for long.

You are correct on the poverty numbers if the peer group is “rest of Europe”, not “rest of USSR alumni”. Is it a reasonable peer group?
> Only Republicans lie about elections — when we do it, it’s “fortifying” and “election integrity”.

Bingo, it will be couched in those terms as well as "voting rights". To them, if you aren't picked up and given a free ride by an Uber to a polling place, then fed and given free water while waiting in line, then given a free ride back to your house, the election is being interf- I mean, "voting rights" are being trampled.
Is this satire
But then you wouldn't use it at all. And let's be honest, his special operation, includes Army, Navy and Air Force, he isn't pulling his punches. My guess is that he didn't want to spend too much on this invasion. Planes are expensive, guided munitions are expensive and so are pilots. Grunts are cheap and so are vehicles (comparatively). He knows that he can't be weak after this war if only due to internal threats from breakaway regions, let alone NATO.

^ seems like it would get spaghetti fast - multiplication's already not easy to visualize and something like 12^6 which involves two numbers that are 'low' by the game's standards, becomes a ridiculously high number. I mean might as well add some other operations if you'll do that right?
Football and soccer players both. I'm pinging on agro chemicals--from the mentions earlier. I have to assume all natural fields are heavily treated (herbacide and insecticide) and that players spend or have spent their early career on natural fields. All of these chemicals are derived from "nerve agents" that mess with proteins in the central nervous system...or so it is my understanding.
It will lead to a 'West against the Rest' war. The West has not enough manpower and manufacturing capacity to win that one.

India, alone, or China, alone, has more manpower than the West (5 eyes, Europe, Japan) combined.

China alone, has more manufacturing capacity than the West combined.

In the words of the old 1960s motto: "Bend over and kiss your ass goodbye."

What I knew about Knox 10y ago was that it was an applet within the TrustZone that samsung adopted, and I didn't think they got an actual fuse. Think of it as an HSM/Vault so Android would essentally use it as that. The secrets in the SE/HSM would ensure anything sent to it by the OS would be derived from that unique hardware protected key. There are a couple of ways and a few factors of doing a secure environment in the OS based on this.

Essentially, each device gets a basic provisioning key at manufacture that authenticates/attests it back to the OEM, and then it gets "personalized" with a set of new keys unique to the device, derived from either that provisioning key, or secrets at the OEM's HSM.

The stream cipher that they broke using the IV weakness would plausibly have used these personalization keys (post provisioning/manufacturing), and not ones protected by a fuse from manufacture.

Again, speculative based on design principles, but there's a short list of ways this stuff works.

They're also likely busy finding the guys who sold all the fuel.

This makes sense. The use-mention distinction does not exist in common parlance. For instance if I were to say “The n-word is reprehensible” this is acceptable but if I were to use the alternative signifier for the same referent, I would likely be banned. If not here, then in most places.

With this shift in society, it makes sense for our AI banning tools to also conflate use/mention.

It is less a programmatic problem and more a real problem. Since even if you don’t use but mention you are considered to have signal-amplified and therefore used. That is, mentioning is now using.
I disagree.

old.reddit.com is the proper link.
It's common these days for the headline - and sometimes first paragraph - of an article to be utterly contradicted by the body of the article.

CNN does it constantly. The headline and first para is editorial, the remainder is reportage. Totally untrustworthy.

Quick! tell me which package I need to install to get audit2allow on a system; without using Google, dnf whatprovides, or repoquery --whatprovides.

I'm still baffled why such an essential tool for quickly assessing violations and potential selinux booleans quick fixes is part of a obsfucated package name. I think some setroubleshoot family of tools might be installed by default on some systems, even if most answers will guide people to just use audit2allow.
Excellent article, this helped me understand the issues working with floating numbers. I work with them quite a lot when developing business logic and often times NaN can be a pain. Understanding why helps a lot.
This says the prefix being announced by two ASNs is only a /24, which is kind of narrow for a hijack? Considering the countries involved, reporting this as a hijack will inevitably lead to people assuming it is related to the current conflict.
