Update: Some of my assumptions here are wrong. As a commenter noted, Okta had posted a PR-response about the breach a few days before the tweets. The termination was specifically about posting confidential documents which detail the hack, not exposing the breach generally. I'll leave the original post in tact for posterity:

Exactly this. I see multiple [moral] failings here and none are from the author.

Okta, a security company, was breached. Rather than getting ahead of it, admitting their failures and committing to be better, they are actively trying to cover it up.

Zoom, a company with a reputation for misrepresenting their own security, has gotten into bed with Okta. Apparently their values align so that’s making more sense now.

One of zoom’s employees tweeted about some documents which he found in the wild. Zoom decided the best next move was to be an active participant in Okta’s cover up.

Rather than support their employee, they fired him. And now, as anyone could predict, we’re seeing the Streisand effect in action.
Shouldn't the course be designed in a way where everything on the exam has been taught in the class?

People with prior knowledge will still have an upper-hand in everything (even beyond school), so I'm not sure that it's even a solvable problem.

I guess perhaps one could give a baseline exam on day 1 to qualify prior knowledge and give a handicap to people if they're coming in blind? Though if I knew that purpose I'd game the system, so it probably still isn't fair.

> company of one person

In other words, sole proprietor.
> Don't numb it, master it and let it lead under control

Numbing it was never a conscious decision, it was an automatic learned response to pain after years / decades. Now that I'm more conscious of what's happening, I can begin to work with it, but personality traits like this are generally highly stable and resistant to change. Which isn't to say there's nothing that can be done about it, just that's challenging (and in the process, you may be losing some of the benefits of that learned behavior).
Because private property rights shouldn't be subject to a vote. That's the whole point of a Constitution. It's for the things that aren't up to a vote -- the things we agree are rights so fundamental that they are guaranteed, not subject to the whims of the electorate.

you know what - you should just say it.

Ask if you can have a private meeting with the person or people in question, have no other agenda to it and just say directly to them what you have written down above. Structure like this.

1. Context
Describe what was going on, how you were feeling, that you were having a rough time

2. Attribute
Describe what they did for during this time

3. Explain
Connect what they did with how it made you feel and how that helped you get out of the rough patch

4. Thank them
Say that you are grateful for their support and that you wanted them to know that.

Good luck!
Just like, until recently, Europe (and especially Germany) thought it was paranoia to treat Russian oil and gas dependence as a risk.
That presumes people learn at equal rates. People don't learn at equal rates though.
These weren’t pictures of him wearing a racy outfit on a vacation.

He works in the tech industry, and he posted leaked documents from a tech company. His employer can pretty sanely draw the parallel and say “we don’t want to employ someone who is OK with broadcasting leaked documents from companies like ours”. Even in countries with different levels of worker protections, that’s a pretty clear cause for termination.

I saw this article pop up the other day which goes fairly deep on the importance of RAW: https://lux.camera/understanding-proraw/. This is focused on iPhone photography, but there's plenty of other detail in there, especially the first half or so.
Google used to have that feature: https://www.ghacks.net/2011/03/10/google-adds-block-all-doma...

In my opinion, back then, they needed the data as a training set for spammy domain detection. Now that SERP spam is no longer a serious issue (in Google's eyes anyway), why bother. Google always knows what's best for you.
Gradle (with Kotlin syntax), Spring Boot (vertx, ktor or for small or microservices), Kotlin, IntelliJ.

That would be a "modern" stack for me. If you can't use Kotlin, Java has improved a lot since 1.6 you will be pleasantly surprised.

I recommend you start an intellij (Free edition if you want to, even if I still recommend the paid one) and follow the springboot kotlin tutorial below. That will give you a good idea of what the ecosystem looks like these days.

Thanks for trying out all these questions on Andi and posting the results here. That was really exciting to see!!

If you have access to any of the GPT-based Playgrounds, you'll see that large language models on their own tend not to be good on factual accuracy. At the same time, we couldn't build Andi unless we were standing on the shoulders of the amazing work done by the folks working on those, especially the pioneering work done by OpenAI, which has also created an entire open source ecosystem around GPT-J/NeoX etc.
Archive of the deleted tweet: https://archive.ph/JWRdH
Japan looks nothing like this. The second pic in the article, the entrance to Kabukicho, is about as real as it gets in that article. And that area, just a couple blocks wide, is where 99% of all “cyberpunk” photos are taken since it’s the area with the most signs and sex shops.

Most parts of basically every part of Tokyo are quite grey and plain. Not even 1% as beautiful as pictures would lead you to believe.

Nature and temple photos are the opposite. Even if they’re edited to the absurd degree these are, they don’t capture the beauty of the places in real life.
There is a schizoid spectrum, which what people call "Schizophrenia" falls on. They do suck at naming things, that's a pretty fair point.
A room full of box checkers is also worse for education. I want to have classmates that are willing to question the teacher, classmates that will spend time thinking beyond a class instead of cramming every trivial detail for an A+, classmates that will choose their classes based on what sounds interesting to them and not only what would look best on their resume.

These schools don't systematically reject all box checkers, it's just that there are so damn many of them the admit rate is going to be very low for box checkers if you want a class with diverse perspectives.

I also don't think it's a binary property, and to some extent is a product of how one spins their application. This is definitely a downside of the current system. But there are fundamental, educational reasons to not want your entire class consisting of students that poured every waking hour of high school into gaming the college app.
That's a moot point. When in a non-disclosure agreement with a company, the binding part is that one will not divulge information about the company or potential partners. If one doesn't know if the company is a partner or not, they still can't divulge the information. If you've ever worked for one of these on-demand consulting firms, they go over this in detail. Basically, if a company tells me something on the call, and that includes information about another company, I can't tell a third party about it, nor can I mention it to the other company.

It is very likely Zoom and Okta are partners. Companies are constantly "partnering" with each other and all that means is there likely some agreement somewhere between them to not divulge information.

I think it's pretty clear the poster figured out they were in legal jeopardy, or were worried about it, given the content is now gone.
Both objects would have certain fixed hook points, such as bottom/right/center/etc and then the equation is as equality of exactly two of those points (new points could be derived from the existing ones, to express "1 mm Z from top").

So yes it is a constraint solver, but a very simple one, as you can constrain only one parameter, but all others would need to be provided; I meant R to be such a provided value (can of course be a parameter to the function creating the object). Perhaps you could also implement is in a way that R can be provided but expect the code to provide all others.

A more general solver would be nice, but they don't seem trouble-free either. But sure, the syntax could be geared towards future development of such a solver.

Maybe there could be a particular syntax for invoking such a solver that would fit well with the existing system, e.g. an "object" that only has hook points that could be constrained in various manners, and then actual objects would use
them as input coordinates.
The science behind it may be bogus but it did lead to an interesting discussion about empathy and self boundaries.
Well, the tweet linked literally says "Anyone have recommendations for wrongful termination lawyers based in California?", so I don't think he has a lawyer. He also seems to be 20 years old.

google collects all your information and device info. They can also tie together all of your devices and accounts. They then share that info with the state and law enforcement.
>the society in which they live.

Which society? The one that has mass shootings on a regular basis but makes gun ownership a viable identity? Or the one praises love and peace while buying clothes made in sweatshops?

This whole concept is just bizarre to me as a Brit. I get the US is a different country with its own culture around firearm ownership but how on earth did widespread "active shooter training" become a thing and society went along with it?

At least the author recognises this in the first sentence, but it still blows my mind.
You keep saying that people are advocating for living in a "pod city." Nobody is. That sounds like some kind of anti-city marketing jargon that comes from the real estate industry, which makes money off of inefficient housing.

I love nature. I lived in the desert for years, and really enjoyed it. But I also realize that people can do both: Enjoy living in a city, and enjoy nature.

Disingenuous people try to paint a picture of apartment living as being "trapped" in a city. Which is simply a lie. People who live in cities can get in these things called "cars" (rentable by the hour, day, or week) and "trains" and go other places to enjoy nature.

The difference between city living and country living, is that the city dwellers don't build their homes on top of nature, killing nature, forcing nature into smaller and smaller boundaries. We do the opposite: We put the people into a defined space so that the natural world can flourish.

If you love nature, stop building houses on it.
I think a big part of it is having a supportive and understanding environment growing up that helps you foster the empathy in a healthy way, while teaching you to build and maintain your own self boundaries at the same time.

If you didn't have that, it can be very difficult to change it as an adult.
There's no way to win if you define winning as re-enabling tracking for users who have already explicitly said they don't want it, while avoiding any negative public perception, you mean.

Stop doing shady shit. "I'll keep asking, in increasingly devious ways, until you say yes, and then even if it was an accident I'll remember it forever" is shady shit.
An interesting question arises from my reading of the article. Should geniuses be better off socially or economically because they are geniuses? If the answer is no, then the only solution is to handicap them. If the answer is yes, then don't do anything and that's how it will play out.
I kind of don't like this approach. I grant there is a huge discrepancy between students in reading/writing ability coming into a class, but forcing everyone to put in the same effort didn't fly in my math and science classes, so why should it be different here? Instead of being able to use my extra time that I didn't need to use in my literature classes by studying other things, I had to put in more effort to make my writing "extra extra" good. Conversely, if someone was a math wiz, they could use the extra time not spent studying math to study literature, or whatever else.

Service workers have unstable schedules. They don't have to
It varies a lot. Quite a long time ago, I worked at a pizza place in a regional chain. That location was kept quite clean, as were most of them. However, sometimes they'd give us the chance to pick up a shift at another location if they couldn't arrange one of their own employees on that day (usually because they called in sick). One such location was absolutely filthy. That location was since closed (grapevine says the chain fired the GM and couldn't find anyone to replace them).

What helps is that there are signs of this sort of thing, if you know what to look for. E.g you should prefer places where you can see into the kitchen (which is most of them these days), places where the customer service workers tuck in their shirts, and places that keep their bathrooms and parking lots clean. Places where police and EMS folks eat really tend to be good bets (they usually also get a discount, but lots of places offer such discounts).
Nothing. Crubier is just an absolute clown that doesn't understand Global and Demographic algorithms also exist, and prioritize pushing content that other people have watched for long and consistent periods.
As another anecdotal point of data for your consideration, I've owned a 2018 Bolt for 3.75 years, have 46,000 miles on it, and have taken it as far as Chicago and Montréal (I'm located near Philadelphia). It took until 2018-2019 to establish enough fast charging infrastructure to make those trips feasible, but it does work in the summer. In the winter, the Bolt's battery management system limits fast charging when the battery isn't sufficiently warmed up, but there's no Tesla-like option to actively heat the battery to improve charging speeds when you want to visit a fast charger.
Copilot is amazingly good. I find it particularly helpful for filling out enum unions or building other kinds of conceptually linked types that don’t have enough semantic linkage for existing autocomplete systems to figure out my intention.
> That adds a risk to every new hire

Which is why many countries which have this allow for few months of probation (three months in Czechia) at the start of employment, where either employee or employer can call it off at any time. There are processes by which an employer can fire an employee after this period (failed performance improvement period, and often severance) or where an employee can leave (resignation effective after a contractually required notice period, or earlier on mutual agreement).

It would take a particular sort of person and probably a special contract for a situation where someone is able to resist being fired for an extended period of time. Most people aren't quite motivated or shameless enough to keep that up for long - it's probably the same sort of effort as actually doing the job.
Yep. Nobody should ever hire Bill Demirkapi because he leaks confidential company information.
Wasn't the criticism a result of them not having a "master disable" option and therefore the extra options were merely increased work for the user?
> Exactly this. I see multiple [moral] failings here and none are from the author.

Just because it's not a "[moral] failing", doesn't mean it's smart to be a martyr.
I get what you mean. Some of the photos are indeed very uninspired; the worst in my opinion is the SEGA photo, what does it have going for it except heavily retouched colors?

I like some of the others though. The saturation make them feel cartoony. Plus neon and umbrellas will always remind me of Blade Runner, one of my favorite movies ever.
>How does it disadvantage people that start from scratch though?

In the same way that not being a genius is a disadvantage. Cant change it unless we handicap the smart people.

> He works in the tech industry, and he posted leaked documents from a tech company

You can't be fired for that.

It's against the law.

The leaker is responsible, not the employer posting them.

As it should be in a decent country with decent laws in the west.

We don't live in Vladimir Putin's Russia, do we?

> Even in countries with different levels of worker protections, that’s a pretty clear cause for termination.

actually, it is not.

And if you really wanna try that, you can't do it without a judge saying you could do it.

And if the employer is right, you have to give them the job back and pay all the legal fees.
Hmmm, in my mind empathy isn't just cognitively understanding that somebody is feeling pain, it's feeling that pain on their behalf. Most people have that ability to some degree, but it's extremely magnified in certain individuals.
> what seems underrated but high impact in the future?

Depends on who you ask, but I'm going with "wheat".

My biggest gripe with apartments is that it strips ownership away from residents and into the pockets of very few people with a lot of money. Equity doesn't get built. It's a hip fiefdom.

I'll be 100% onboard when all these apartments kicking people out of homes are equity-based for residents.

I know I moved the goalposts a bit, but equity is a huge issue for me with dense living.

To your original point, I get it, but I've been in the world so long that the idea my neighbor can build a skyscraper against my property line feels... unfree, ironically perhaps. Your assertion is that dense housing is for the greater good, an opinion I share. So I guess I'm just human in my contradiction.
Sounds like guy is proposing usage of Signal app, and maybe "flashing custom ROM",

It just takes two check boxes to uncheck to disable that in IntelliJ. I agree it is disturbing that it is a default at first. But it is at least configurable.
> By the time we enter the corporate world we are accustomed to this training. This is the training we receive in school. It starts in elementary school and nearly every school teaches some form of active shooter training

What. The. Fruit.

Where is this normal??? I have never once received active shooter training. It’s been a few years since I was in grade school (class of 2004, baby!) and two years since I worked in an office but, still, this sounds extremely foreign.

I’ve lived and worked in Canada and Australia but not the US. Is this actually normal in the US?

Forget first-aid kits. How could anyone be okay with this being normal?
Are you talking about the US Constitution or something else? The US Constitution explicitly limits private property rights in the 5th amendment.

Looks like Okta doesn't take security seriously.
Thanks. There are definitely edge cases from a technical perspective that are common in the wild.

As the models get better these will get easier to handle, but we think that we can help guide users to asking more specific questions in order to get better results. That's especially the case with spoken search. And we have some ideas on how to help with that which we're working on but aren't fully evolved enough to share yet.
I'm actually happy to delay my battery replacement - I believe the probabilities & statistics are on my side as far as the chances of my car going up in flames before I decide to actually move forward with my battery replacement. Probably going to do it this year, but I'm not at all in a rush.

I also have only really followed GM's recommendation to keep state of charge under 90%; I have happily driven my battery as low as needed, but have always worked to plug the car in and raise the state of charge within 24 hours back to the "appropriate" range.

Agreed with you about some folks not wanting to put up with it - there's plenty of stories on the Bolt EV Facebook group about folks going through the buy-back process. But I wouldn't sell my Bolt for even its original MSRP.

Your document makes it seem like this is something original that you dreamed up, not that you are copying a concept from someone else.
Not that I disagree with your overall point, but how does that work for mega-huge companies? Microsoft/Visa/Google/etc likely have deals with everyone. If you work for a large company, you could essentially never disclose anything, regardless of the source.
More accurately - freedom of speech means freedom of consequences from the government. It means nothing between private entities.
I'll just say it: Bezos is better suited to handle the money than the government. If the government managed sand in the desert, there would be a sand shortage within 1 year. If Bezos managed sand in the desert, there would be plenty of sand for everyone for years to come and it would arrive on my doorstep within 2 days, usually 1.
