After doing this for years most of my catchall email spam is from breaches.
Touché. I guess a common pattern I find myself doing for Union types is having if statements checking if something is of a type using reflection. When checking if it is none, it is more elegant.
Dropbox and gravatar breaches.

In particular recruiters (including from 1 faang) have picked up the gravatar breach, and after some gdpr digging I've found a few of the unscrupulous vendors that laundered the breach data into the recruiter spam industry
If you're willing to drop all dynamic stuff and deal with a smaller library ecosystem I would highly recommend trying Haskell. At some point I feel like it's Python 5
Perhaps because some may not have a choice to work on a project that lives on GitHub.

So they may not be electing in to the community you are describing.

Or they may have a different idea I’d what GitHub should be than the company did at the start or how you’ve described it.

Forcing public profiles may also a wee bit too close to zuck’s view if the world.
Me. I'm in that minority! I have no interest in the social aspects or the weird and forced extroversion of curating of an online coder persona.

They were breached.
Astounding they would so brazingly interfere in free market as if the “central bureau” can do any better. Not to mention the astonishing over-step of government regulation if the private sphere.
Dunno about wholesome per se, but it's definitely not complex.
From my understanding this will still apply to the ISP you are using for mobile or broadband. How ISPs push along these costs to their customers is up to them, but that is different from the price of sending data between an ISP and Netflix for example.
It's not highly competitive, but you can buy cable TV service from satellite companies or IPTV streamers and you guy telephone service from mobile carriers, the "phone company," and the cable company. In most urban/suburban areas you can ISP service from the "phone" company and the cable company.

That is a lot competition than AT&T faced--which was literally none.
Good. Yeah it doesn't do much for the community, but I got scolded in the past for squeezing in commits to open source repositories that aren't work related during work hours.

I know, I know, I shouldn't be doing that in the first place, but it still sometimes happens, and just being able to keep the profile private is easier than waiting with committing until after work hours.

Not everything I do on GitHub should be broadcasted to my entire workplace
I'm not sure how it works but it works in such a way to frustrate me. I rarely see the tweets of those I follow. Instead I see the ones they liked, I see the tweets of others that follow them, I see tweets of others who are similar to them.

I see the tweets of everyone BUT the ones I follow. Hence I have a chrome plug in that cleans up their junk into a usable state.
I always interpreted this as someone wrote a script and learned to game the algorithm, you think there’s a line of code in there that says trump_replies.unshift(crazy_doctor_brother_tweets) in there somewhere?
As a fellow aussie with caucasian lineage from 1800's I grew up a few generations on the "already settled" side of this equation. I'd like to think I'm not racist but I struggle with being a product of my environment in a competitive world too. Your insight is appreciated.

The only other weird thing is how immigrants can pick on each other as much as any racist aussie seems to. I would have thought having gone through it would make people more sensitive to flinging that crap. But I guess the "product of environment + competitive social pressures" gets to us all.
I regularly play my Atari Lynx that I got for Christmas '89. Playdate looks like it would scratch that itch for really simple mobile friendly pixel art games with no added nonsense.
If ISPs promised not to try to get into the business of competing with those service providers this would be a stronger argument.

When this arose, it was partly a lever to make their own offerings more attractive.

Turns out they mostly sucked at those offerings and have shut down or spun them off so it's less urgent right now, but don't assume it won't happen again!
Plz take a dump on my FinTech business
Hi there. I built a company that makes algorithmic trading strategies for its users to invest with.

--> https://justfor.fund

Disclaimer: New born business with its first beta version (12 users) currently live.

Details:
- I'm the sole developer and founder
- I applied to YC S22 batch on the last day
- Currently facing a big KYC compliance wall (code and protocols)
- My priority right now is obtaining funds to cover minimal operational cost's. Need to pay for broker partnership costs too.
- I have essentially no funds to cover cost's right now.
- Currently applying for dev positions on several companies.
- Developed the beta version on 3.5 months full-time (broke my ass and i loved it).

All shit is welcomed! fertilizer..
I've experienced similar. It's so they can tell their clients they've met with each candidate in person. Decidedly less of a selling point these days.
The list is long and I'm on my phone. Several were from breaches like Adobe.com and Park mobile. MyFitnessPal. Cadillac (used email for a free brochure).

I think the real worst offender is LinkedIn. I put one email on my resume and a different one for logging in to LinkedIn that should not be public. And yet I get direct recruiter spam there all the time.
"A former Twitter employee who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private matters said the company has considered an “algorithm marketplace,” in which users can choose different ways to view their feeds. But efforts to offer more transparency have proved challenging, the person said, because of how tied Twitter’s algorithms are to other parts of the product. Opening it up could reveal trade secrets and invite abuse, the person said."

I mostly use one single address, but I can tell you exactly where all the spam comes from: idiots whose name is the same as mine.

They give my address as if it belonged to them. Probably they created addresses like narag33@server and they believe that it's narag@server instead.

So not only I receive all the spam from dubious sites that they suscribed to, but also their legitimate mail from lists and friends.

My namesakes are idiots. But some of the companies responsible of the subscriptions, like Paypal, are assholes. They allow the creation of accounts without verifying the email, then refuse to admit it's their problem and do something about it.
Memory LCD is nothing like eInk except being lower power. It's an LCD screen but each pixel has a bit of memory with its state so it doesn't need to refresh if it hasn't changed. It still has all the optical properties of LCD. This is still a reflective LCD. It's better than the 30 year old one in the Game Boy but it's still a reflective LCD.

There is, if you have recurring payments on the same card. If the bank knows there is fraud, some won't honor even known recurring payments. The card may be outright cancelled.

If one of those recurring payments is, eg, your Apple icloud or personal gmail/gsuite/gworkplace account, you better hop to with the utmost urgency.
Well, since that's a hot topic posting I'll just counter it by this lovely tidbit: https://www.npr.org/2020/09/29/917747123/you-literally-cant-...

This has been my pattern ever since switching to ProtonMail. The biggest surprise for me was how little purpose it serves for spam prevention.

Coming from GMail, I expected an untenable amount of spam - but that seems to only be a GMail problem? I’ve only had two incidents of unsolicited spam from a vendor sharing my email address since moving to ProtonMail.

One I don’t remember the details but I gave a yoga accessories company my email address, like a year later I got an email addressed to that email address from a cannabis company.

The other time TicketMaster shared my email address with Warner Bros.

However my public email addresses (like the ones I use on GitHub, npm, git commits, etc) receive a lot of spam - but those are harvested, not shared.

Now my email address actually serves another purpose: limiting the ability for leaked user databases to connect my identity across providers. I’m starting to use a different username, email address, and password for every service I use that isn’t linked to my professional identity.

I can get a 4.5% cap rate on real estate in a hot market like Los Angeles. I can get a 50% loan on the property as well. The property will likely appreciate on the backend and when it's time to sell I can 1031 exchange in to another property or do an opportunity zone to defer taxes. I can get a conventional loan from a bank against that property if I ever need to pull dollars out.

A 5% return royalty is largely illiquid, can not likely be collateralized at a low interest rate, has limited ability to appreciate in value, etc. etc.

I don't see it as that valuable...especially with the decline of major CPG brands. The remaining risk with this investment is completely unknown to me.
I think he meant that Pico-8 is so stripped down you have to spend a lot time writing lower level game engine stuff before you get to the fun, moving things around, stuff. Not boilerplate in that you are repeating code within your Pico-8 game, but that you have to rewrite basic functions that come built in to typical game frameworks.

I've been building a platform that is going to make DevOps work on any cloud 10x easier and faster, meaning you either won't need to deal with DevOps at all or you will do only the tiny part which is really specific to you.

I've managed to build a lot of the features I wanted and now I want to make it open-source/code available.

My question is what license is the best? Can I start with CC and move to MIT later?

I'd be interested to hear people's use cases for parsing SQL. The link talks about exploring sql history, but has anyone else got some interesting uses?

A couple of times where I've needed to parse SQL I would typically write a module for sqlite3 and get it to do the parsing for me. But annoyingly I can't remember _why_ I did this or what I was trying to achieve.

Some (me) would argue that w/o physical security, logical security is meaningless. Physical access == compromise.
Hormesis and the hygiene hypothesis suggest that "working out" can be good for the immune system too. Unfortunately variolation has become a difficult topic.

Except the crank?
I don't like that this article makes it mostly a binary of polyester against cotton. There's a wide variety of fabrics available that could do a better job of solving environmental issues in clothing. This article makes no mention of semi-synthetic materials (e.g. rayon, tencel, viscose), which have gentler land-use and actually biodegrade.
For me, the article is just a single page.

There is no page 2.

Perhaps the article has been updated?
I believe she also designed the Chicago font, which was then used in iPods.
> The programming language of a CAS should have a type system suitable for doing mathematics.

I find it hard to understand what type theorists are actually ever talking about because their terminology is too hard to understand (like "intuitionistic type theory" "calculus of constructions" etc).

But looking at practical PL type systems, it's always seemed like they aren't that useful for math.

- for basic engineering math you'd want units like inch vs. centimeter that just add properly, or inch vs square inch that don't add together, but it doesn't seem like those are easy to model with types.

- more abstractly, how do you use types to prove that a matrix multiplication is correct? What even is the type of an intermediate term in a matrix multiplication?

- what’s the type backing a number? Is it a bignum? But now addition is O(n) not O(1) which actually adds a lot of security issues.
It clocks in at 2.74 Wh (740 mAh @ 3.7V).

https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Playdate+Teardown/143811

Assume 75% usable charge that’s about 2Wh. Ads say 8 hour active time so you’d need to make 0.25 W to power it.

Say the crank is about 0.1m and you turn it at once per second, 6 radians per second, your force needs to be roughly half a newton when accounting for losses. Half a Newton is about the weight of two AA batteries. So it’s perfectly achievable to keep it running, but we’d have to really think about how much you can output with a hand crank. You wouldn’t want to crank it and try to play at the same time, so you’d be cranking to charge and then play.

I found here many crank chargers useful for charging phones and some with as high as 20W output. The ones that are small and cheap can do 1A, 4W, but that would be plenty. 15 minutes of cranking would give 4 hours of play time.

A few ISPs, like Sonic, maintain neutrality by their own policies. Then I read not only of throttling but of horrors like replacing ads on websites with different ones that pay the ISP.
> earn your yield for 5 years (let's say LIBOR + 7%) and then you get your $2 million back and you can decide then how to best re-invest your money at that time given the situation

You have an 80% chance of getting your money back with BBs.

Also, I didn't read the specs on the Listerine contract, but I assume that if they raise the price of Listerine, then royalties scale with it. While in short term consumer staple prices are sticky, they scale with inflation over the long haul.
You're thinking of mouthwash with ethanol alcohol.
I don't think that downward capture of bindings from an enclosing scope counts as "leakage" and I've never seen it lead to the maintainability issues you describe. In Perl and JavaScript, under certain conditions variable scope can leak upward, and that opens up its own can of fresh hell.

Lexical scope also allows the lambda calculus to work, and with it powerful constructs like parameterized functions over values, and fine-grained restriction of variable access through lexical closures. An eager young Scheme programmer can write a module or object system for Scheme in an afternoon.

Tcl allows those things to be written, but they're a bit more involved. And you have to exercise caution, as which bindings are live when a particular Tcl script gets executed is not clear from the program text. (I believe Tcl with upvar actually has dynamic scope semantics which, yet again, can of hell.) But hey, it's a wonderful thing that Tcl admits as much metaprogramming as it does, that puts it well ahead of many popular languages.
Component cost increases due to the pandemic and supply chain issues easily increased the price by 25-30% in our industry due to several factors outside of the norm, like some single source parts most companies relied on with factory problems, fires, etc

In my experience over the past 6-12 months this is significant

The biggest reason - which doesn't seem to be mentioned - is consistency and stability.

I don't like being woken up to debug why the query planner has decided to do something new. Yes, there's always a "good reason" but does it need to communicate that by taking down production at 3am?

Even if it's a better plan, I don't need my anomaly detection alerts going off because something is now running in half the time...

Block real innovation like what?

That's all userspace? Userspace doesn't care it breaks. That's why userspace sucks. You need to keep compatibility if you want to have a stable base to build something. That's why we have (sometimes silly) standards like SUS or POSIX.

"we do not break userspace" at least garantees that you need to fix only the userspace, and not the whole thing all the time.
- What are the founders' backgrounds? (Do the founder backgrounds match the industry/verticals that are being targeted)

- Do either of the founders have previous start up experience and or successful exits?

- In plain language, explain the business model and the value prop.

- What (and how much) research have the founders done to validate their product idea?

- Is there a pipeline of committed customers / early adopters?

- Who is the competition / who are the competitors?

- Why are you better?

- Why will $unicorn_comp NOT come into this market?

- Equity is a large part of my compensation. Can I see the cap table?

Demand answers in plain language, no flowery fluffy management-consultantese. Given your early stage employee AND c-level, I would expect nothing less than 100% transparency.
It's all about the end game content.
Pretty much. Memory LCD adds a bit of memory to each pixel so it doesn't need to refresh if it hasn't changed. Otherwise the same.
It pops up in a bunch of different areas. If you used the Orbix Corba ORB, it was there. It's the scripting language for F5 load balancers. A one-time popular monitoring tool called NetCool/Omnibus used it for script extensions. It's also in a few different Electronics Design Automation (EDA) tools. It was also in a few different tools that dealth with Healthcare-specific IT, like HL7 protocol bridging. Just the ones I ran into. Prior to lua it was really the only dead-easy way to link a known, mainstream-ish, scripting language into an existing tool.
I think this story is great. She has cultivated and milked an image of a woman who fought against the discrimination and lived through her husband's trauma and is an inspiration to other women.

But I've always had the opinion that someone who is at that level in Facebook and stays there without anyone trying to get rid of her, has definitely had plenty of skeletons in her closet. It's high time people see her for what she is, a hypocrite contributing to a system that she's always complained about and made money from.
i don't think the comment is ironic.

it's in the direction of "I don't want Musk to mess with Twitter". I personally cannot do anything about it but watch and voice concern, but if enough people see the concern I am voicing maybe this will lead to a better outcome. who knows?
The worst, by far, is Camping World / Good Sam. It’s just amazing how they are willing to sell my email to anyone and everyone. My local branch has a good service department though so I just setup a filter and keep going back.
I think K9 was kind of in maintenance mode until recently. It's been nice to see more updates though.

There must be a misunderstanding here.

It seems your own citation [2] contradicts your claim that Listerine made up halitosis.

On the contrary it look like the article specifically makes a point that they did not make up the condition or the name of it.

Did they do anything other than adopt the Latin word and raise awareness of it in marketing?

What statically compiled language doesn't provide a way (sometimes clunky) to have heterogeneous values in a dict? You can do that with void* in C, even
I'm using it sparsely. But how do I use it for external lib? Sometimes it's kinda difficult to know what exactly the type is.

[citation needed]

This is the wrong wording, IE had a decently enough installed/captive user base. It was never particularly stable.
Better hope not, you've seen how much bloat it has caused in most organizations. It's trash
What happens when there's no immediate "physically hurting them", but instead long-term damage that is not immediately obvious?

I ask because dumping waste could potentially be "not hurting others" in an immediate sense, but still e.g. contaminating the dump area.
To be fair, you're comparing a static typed language that transpiles to JS with a type annotation system for a dynamic lang.

Pylint is closer to Flow than Typescript.
That’s what I was getting from them but their marketing isn’t clear.

>>No, this is extremely wrong. I would encourage you to look into the rather large graveyard of cryptocurrencies that collapsed and are now worthless.

None of those are major cryptocurrencies, and the blockchains of many of those which are now effectively worthless continue to exist in a handful of nodes around the world, showing the resilience of this enterprise structure.

>>A digital cash platform will shut down when it's not profitable and nobody wants to use it anymore, the exact same thing is true of any cryptocurrency.

No, a blockchain is inherently far more widely distributed in its infrastructure providers and datastores, and is therefore far less likely to disappear as a trusted database for shared operations like a token ledger.

>>that's it's actually a good thing that BTC and ETH are getting "too big to fail"

In this case they are too big to fail on their own, not too big for society to allow them to fail, which is an entirely different concept, and only superficially similar. It is a good thing for the world at large when a shared ledger becomes increasingly robust to failure due to its own structure becoming more resilient. This makes for a more reliable platform for financial and social interaction.
