All my children have slept next to the mother at first. Of course, IF mother is exceptionally hard sleeper and/or overweight, this MIGHT be somewhat dangerous. But in all other cases its imho SO much better for the both of them. Afaik most mothers are during that time SO light sleepers, that even when baby coughs, they check whats up and fall asleep again.
Apparently so does every recent OS, e.g. Windows, Mac, ios, Android,.... . They all feature an app drawer/launcher/start menu quite prominently and that is always not the desktop.

Having one window of the files app always open, removing all window decorations and calling it "desktop" can be good, but I won't pretend that there isn't an overarching movement away from that.
With the advent of serverless product offerings, I agree 95% here. The other 5% are on premise, own their own server enterprises, which I know, are rare.

It no longer makes sense to spend so much resources on orchestration or distributing across multiple hardware.

Not when you can simply write code and have it running globally distributed on edge. You would be doing yourself a disservice to not follow this new paradigm shift.

Hey, FYI, I initially flagged your post because I thought it was spam... thought JW had moved into the online version of door-to-door Watchtowering with drive-by evangelism.

But I was wrong, and I'm sorry. You're just a regular part of this community and your wife happens to have religious beliefs that helped her through tough times.

I apologize for jumping to conclusions, and I'm posting this response mostly so others don't make the same mistake and assume your post is spam.
Not to derail this thread or to sound like I am criticizing OP, but everyone should take this post as a reminder to look into having a disability insurance policy. Your megacorp may offer a policy, but look into getting your own guaranteed renewable non-cancelable policy, as it provides greater protection. The Bogleheads wiki has a good page describing what is important to obtain in such a policy.

I don't entirely disagree, but I have to keep in mind that this is an ad hominem argument. It's also an argument that would be used to eliminate or discredit academia and the vast majority of those in public service - both of which I think have their place to an extent.
This sounds to me more like hypnotism, where you're using external stimuli to induce a specific brain wave state, rather than hallucinogenic tripping, where you're inhibiting some of your brain's filtering mechanisms to see phenomena and form connections that would normally be filtered out.

Honestly, this sounds more useful, at least in app form. Not a great article, but I'll definitely be trying it out myself.

One more thing, and this I know from professional experience: If you get turned down for SSDI, appeal. Most get turned down the first time, but nearly 100% of people are accepted on appeal.
Yes, but the performance/power is extremely important for laptops. As a long time Linux user I'm seriously considering migrating to Mac just for the laptop staying cool and silent after hours operating on battery.
Why would you even want to make it into a lesser foodstuff?

It would be cheaper, not more expensive, to pad it out so that you end up with like 50g of chicken and 50g of bread or whatever.
I'm seen some pretty crappy code come out of Google and at times they don't really slow down to do things right.
Lastly, if you let your child learn how to divide and conquer parents, you are asking for mountains of conflict.

that's important. always agree on how to deal with situations. even if you feel it's wrong at the moment. if you don't agree with how a situation was handled, talk in private afterwards and agree to change it, but most importantly, don't argue with your partner in front of the child or change your partners decision behind their back.
I asked for an explicit statement that it was vulnerable, not if it could be vulnerable. To have a padding oracle attack against CBC, the attacker needs:

* The ability to submit a lot of messages for decryption.

* A error specific to a padding oracle issue.

* Some sort of provided reverse channel to get that error information back to the attacker.

Does the system in question have these attributes?

I note that you have not explicitly stated that the system is susceptible to a padding oracle attack either. That's because you have read the same article and can not.
What are your professional skills? I work for a chronic pain management startup and we have a lot of needs.
You are all one people!

No!

That’s right—you are all either on Team Blue or Team Red!

Yes!

Amazing how widespread such dichotomies are.
People want gossip, blood, and vitriol. We created platforms where you can get a stream of it any time, day or night. The best (worst) of it, aggregated from around the world. People were free to choose, and chose that instead of waiting for the paper to arrive in the morning. They could in theory have done both, but they clearly only wanted the one thing. So that's what we have now. I don't understand this ritual where we blame corporations for giving us what we tell them we want.
Your story is sadly not unique: being broke and unemployed is awful, and there are millions in the same situation. You are not alone! Firstly, this post you made right here and now may be the turning point, at least your story is known by others and maybe the right person will read it. Secondly, although it may sound a bit trite, perhaps now is the time of your life to really decide what matters the most to you, and focus just on that. Whatever it is that you really love, try to make it your primary thing. And the better you get at it, the more likely there is someone out there who needs your help. It is a big world and no matter what your skills are, there is someone who can benefit from them if you are an expert. Keep putting your name out there and make sure people hear from you. It sounds as if your mind is still working just fine, and it is your greatest resource, and can be a source of wealth to come!
> Okay, then we need to tell people where to get this professional training.

I posted a link to a Getting Started guide in my comment above.

Once you've exhausted those resources, your best bet is to join a cryptography team at a tech company to round off your education with some real-world experience.

The question is "Can you program"?

If the answer is "Yes", then stop watching TV, playing video games and lurking on the internet.

Honestly, this will sound heartless, but if you can play video games you can also work. The problem is more in your head and you need to shed the victim thinking and start focusing on what valuable you can do.

Even if your output is less than it was before, you can probably pay for a reasonable lifestyle.

Right now there is a lot of huge companies that will hire anybody that can code anything. Trust me on this. It is total seller's market. There are people who can't code and still get the job.

You say you are burned backend-centered web developer? You can probably get hired for full time, less ambitious job or contract and do your job in a fraction of time. The key word is "Less Ambitious". Which should help with your burnout. Just put a very strict work time / free time boundaries.

My burnout comes when I can't leave work even when I am at home and the solution is to give yourself permission to have time off. It is all in your mind.
> Further, all of my experience is in startups and that makes me less palatable to larger companies, but larger companies have more options to accommodate disabled people.

My understanding is lots of large enterprise/legacy companies are constantly looking for startup experience since they want to replicate the startup success with their own projects and often consider their own projects to be startsup.
It sounds fun looking at how deep the rabbit hole goes.
I've long suffered this problem but lately I'm taking a two pronged approach:

1) Be very strict about quality control. Seek out quality information. Do I have to study every philosopher? Obviously not, because I don't have time for that. Which 5 philosophers will I get the most from?

2) I'm writing my own personal recommendation engine that sits between myself an the internet. I hope to use data mining and data training techniques to present to myself quality links in the areas of interest. This tool will "know" me and what I am interested in because I have trained it that way.
If the (i+1)'st outer loop starts with the first i elements in sorted order, then it ends with the first i+1 elements in sorted order.

In fact if k of the first i elements are <= A[i+1], then the first k iterations of the inner loop will not swap, and the next i-k iterations will swap. The latter can be seen to maintain order.

The last n-i iterations of the inner loop (where j>=i) do not affect this reasoning and can be omitted, as can the first iteration of the outer loop.
Nope, just someone who is familiar with San-Francisco.
absolutely nuts to think what that would look like. Is he building services to abstract out english grammar? Have one service called VerbManager that returns a boolean if a given word is a verb, have another one called AdjectiveManager that does similar and so on.
Come on... An even slightly charitable reading of parents' comment would realize that they don't mean "belief" in the religious sense.

It's pretty safe to assume they are asking what the previously understood and accepted academic stance on the matter was, and are asking how the findings of this paper differ in a way to make it newsworthy.
This is unnecessarily mean.
I see the OED was a database of the English vocabulary with a full version control history each word.

I remember early in the CD-ROM era, I rennet having access to the MS-DOS version of the OED. I have often thought about trying to track down a copy and install on my current system
At the same time the industry is chugging along fine despite his bad advice. Despite his attitude against type checking we're gladly moving from JavaScript to Typescript and despite his attitude against better tooling we're gradually dropping C++ for Rust. Engineering projects that needed inscrutable correctness have proceeded to use TLA+ to great success.

Uncle Bob has influenced me during my career, but I don't nor do I know any other senior developer who preaches his gospel. Most people just pick up the bits and pieces they like and forget about the rest.

Maybe you'll get some juniors who get overly zealous but I think there's worse things a junior could be doing than following Bob a little too strictly.

Ruby has long been my favorite programming language and I used to believe that the static typing of languages like Java were the main reason they were so much less effective. After having worked with Typescript for a couple years and seeing the magic the Rust community is pulling off I now believe we'd benefit from static types in Ruby, as do an increasing amount of Rubyists.

The true danger is getting stuck in your ideas, and ignoring the wisdom that's being developed around you.
Yeah, this project was several years old. Take this with a grain of salt, I'm not familiar with timelines in terms of k8s, but I would guess that it had not yet risen to popularity as it has in more recent years.
My co-pays for meds and visits are about 1/3 of my budget.
Nice. The library, used book stores and Blockbuster video were some of our favorites, especially when the weather was bad.
The part of Kubernetes and startups is 100% correct I believe. It is very hard for some people to not own a thing. People can be very narrow-minded about buying a service. Even though they at the same time gladly buys work-hours to offload their personal workload.

To set up complete envs for dev, test and prod with GIT, full CI/CD and everything you need like databases and storage is less than 20 hours work in a modern cloud. This is something that comes with low maintenance as well. If you think containerization and Kubernetes is a better option, you are basically incompetent when it comes startups.

There are hundreds of thousands of lines of JS making up the "browser" parts of the app known as Firefox.

"Written in JavaScript" is not the thing that tends to make web apps slow. It's all the terrible "best practices" associated with the NPM ecosystem that causes that. You can generally sidestep the performance problems by just not programming in that style.
If you're looking for part time work in tech, if you're patient with upwork and similar sites you can find roles for 10-20 hours a week that pay decently.
The blog post is written in conversational English. It is not meant to be a technical, formal paper about their protocol. If you're going to get hung up on that, that's entirely your problem, not mine.

Yes, their fucking thing is vulnerable, because of how PHP + ext/openssl handles padding errors by default. They can mitigate this behavior by suppressing error reporting, but the underlying behavior will still be observable later in the application when `false` is provided instead of a string.

To trigger the vulnerability, you would need the ability to modify a ciphertext. This requires privileged access to where the encrypted data is stored.

Exploit procedure:

1. Modify ciphertext
2. Access PHP script that processes said ciphertext under-the-hood
3. Did it spit out a PHP error?
* Yes -> Invalid padding
* No -> Valid padding

Am I going to laboriously describe one of the most well-tested padding oracle exploit paths in the web programming ecosystem in an informal blog post whose purpose is to describe coding/design flaws? No, because that's a waste of everyone's time.

I don't generally write articles with the premise that my audience needs every logical conclusion spoon-fed to them.

> I note that you have not explicitly stated that the system is susceptible to a padding oracle attack either. That's because you have read the same article and can not.

I wrote it, actually.
Do you have any particular IC skillset? E.g., software development, QA, UX. Would you be willing to learn a new stack if you had to?

No promises but, if so (and assuming you don't get plenty of better suggestions and offers here), drop me an email: bart PERIOD read THEALIKECHARACTERTHATISNTANAMPERSAND savanta DECIMAL POINT com.

I'm the CTO so have a meaningful level of influence but can also tell you that what's most likely to scupper us working with you, apart from a skillset mismatch, will be some BS about creating IP and taxation within a US state (or some other legal nonsense that makes it hard or impossible to work with you even though we are incorporated in the US).

I'm sorry I can't be more directly encouraging but do reach out if you're interested and I'll see if I can help.

EDIT: One other thing that might be useful to us, doable part time, and would I think sidestep any issues around IP creation. How are your management skills? And might you be willing to work slightly odd hours? E.g., afternoons, to cross over with the UK (obviously depends where you are in the US).
Good point.

Pro tip: get this while you are employed full time before you jump into self employment (at least look into it).
I did a prépa intégré and it was significantly easier, mostly because, I lived on campus, I didn't have to commute (I get car sick so close to two hours of bus every day was tough in high school) and I didn't need to stay all the time in a school. When I had free time, I could go back to my place...

So, I guess it's not the workload so much as the butt-in-chair, long hours always being in the same place. Similar to being in Japan actually, low productivity, but long long hours... I also had a lot of stress/anxiety in making sure I get admitted to the school I wanted so I did a lot of busy work to make sure my grades were perfect above and beyond just learning and understanding the materials. In retrospect, it was overkill and pretty much un-needed.

Very true. And very counter-intuitive. A cardboard box I turned into a playhouse in like three minutes is still one of my daughter’s favorite play things. The LEGO I bought her, on the other hand, is pretty much collecting dust.
> Then one of the big players comes in and adds the feature to their main product. Poof, everything somebody worked long and hard for disappears.

It depends a lot on how you market yourself.

Basecamp is a good - admittedly cliche, though - example. Now they have Hey. It's an email client for $100/yr. And they continue to make millions, despite sharing the market with giants.

The reason people use their services is not only because of the features. They also build a relationship.

One doesn't stay married because there's no other potential partner around with better features. It's because there's a deeper relationship, a bond. Might be stretching now? Perhaps...
I bought a case of 40 wooden blocks for my granddaughters. They're a versatile toy that doesn't impose tramlines on their play.

I haven't bought them many toys; I don't want to buy them tramline toys. The local toyshop is Hamley's; I couldn't see anything in that store that wasn't both a tramline toy, and entirely made of non-recyclable plastic. I had to import the wooden blocks.

When I was a kid, I got a lot of mileage out of Meccano. Even into early adulthood, I was still using Meccano to botch together some project or other. I suppose Lego is the modern alternative; but (a) it's all plastic; and (b) modern Lego is all tramlines kits.
It’s also worth considering whether providing a lower going rate and longer duration of work would be effective. For some projects it may be possible to effectively work half time.

I’ve met folks in unusual industries that need ongoing tech work/knowledge but have no desire to have this knowledge and effort in house. Medical device manufacturing was one such field. (work was government compliance, and server patching/network maintenance)
The video from the article (https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=bydMm4cJDeU) is much better because it highlights the index of the outer loop, which is unclear from the cascading visualization there. By seeing the indexes it becomes clear that (1) in the area before the outer index, every value gets swapped in and out of the outer loop location to put them in order, and (2) at the end of the first outer loop iteration, the largest element will be at the location of the outer loop index, and so everything to the right is unchanged in each iteration.
It doesn't. Did _you_ read the article?

Atezolizumab is not the experimental drug, it's an already approved drug. The drug in question is the unnamed drug it was combined with.
We can talk Missouri in particular. Just a year or two ago there were anti-blm protests. I saw signs people were carrying with the n-word on them. This was in public and on television.

First off, not Chicago. Highland Park is almost 20 miles outside of the city.

Robertson is better than Torx for three reasons:

1. Fewer sizes. Robertson has 6 sizes. If you're using the wrong one, you will know. People often use the wrong Torx driver and end up stripping it.

2. Slightly tapered bit. This allows one-handed usage. You put the bit on and it will stay there. No need to hold the screw with your other hand.

3. Even if painted over, Robertson still works, allowing you to remove them.

I agree Torx is second best though.
Correct on all counts. But there is also the difference between SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR to be covered.

You get started by sharpening your tools and learning about how business works.

For me, it was mostly podcasts on commutes and physical chores. I listened to podcasts about web development, JavaScript, backend, data flows, infrastructure. I built small systems that used this understanding, cementing it in my brain with the pros and cons of approaches where the rubber meets the road. Then I listened to podcasts about small business, particular successful SaaS companies, marketing, sales approaches, management, hiring and all the ingredients that made them successful. Side benefit of this exploratory research is that it makes you very valuable in the market.

Find a need, think of how to serve that need, judge its longevity, quality, and value. Then you put your now sharp tools to work. Idea evaluation is a good skill, and required. You need to be brutally rational about the ideas. Emotional attachment helps drive your motivation to work on it, but it won't magically make customers appear.

Then you try to execute. Good execution is the hardest part, and you give yourself the best shot by head down improvements in your skills. For software, your first goal is to produce something that serves the need and can acquire a few paying customers. The less "other stuff" involved the better, just serve the need. Once you have paying customers leverage their feedback to grow the product and pick the best direction to feel out where the market for it really is. Non-paying feedback is much worse than someone else with skin in the game, paying customers are key.

It's a lot more blood and sweat than the article seems to point out. I like bootstrapping, but it means long evenings and weekends unless you have a sizable nest egg for a runway. Or better if you can afford to work only part-time and can find an accommodating position.

Be ready to fail the first few times and try again. 2-3 significant failures under your belt is pretty normal for a successful SaaS bootstrapper.

If you have the stomach and drive for it. Then you to can reach this definition of success.

There are tons of small underserved markets that would provide nicely for an individual or small team.
Did you give in?

I mentioned this in another post, but this is completely unfathomable for most parents outside of the US excepting Jews and Muslims. It's also a very weird phenomenon culturally: the fact that it is so common in the US (between 20% and 95% or something like that varying by US state) is a surprise to many outside of it — and conversely, that most cultures don't do this at all seems to surprise many Americans.
