> If the international law enforcement community is really trying to go after "all cryptographers" why do you think we haven't seen more arrests? Why do you think they only arrested this guy?

Because the standard playbook for "cracking down" is to first win cases against the least sympathetic, most prosecutable targets. Once that's under your belt, you gradually expand outwards to increasingly ordinary people. It's why slippery slope is such a big deal in civil liberties and constitutional law.

When drug prohibition started, they started by arresting kingpin gangstas not students with dime bags. As abortion laws restart, states won't begin by arresting anyone who's ever donated to Planned Parenthood. But if left unchecked, some will eventually get there.

Goats LOVE poison ivy and oak, and it doesn't hurt them. Don't let them near hemlock though (it will do the same to them as it did Socrates)
Which is a sad situation, I guess - unless they don't deserve more presence (which can also happen, also sad but in different ways)
I suspect a human child's maturation provides an analog of what an AI must go through to learn(at a vastly accelerated rate) which will require machine AI 'mentors' to 'rear' the AI - none of which we have ready to go.
It is already clear that the computational parallelism to mimic humans is emerging, with the disparate mind processes/centers now being teased out.
Not sure how this bootstrap will work, but at the speed of AI this process will be both iterative as well as rapid as the process emerges and gets enough consciousness to self iterate/regulate as it progresses.
Why is Apple's arrangement a good thing and Google's a bad thing?

This is the tricky bit about monopoly breaking... The lack of consistent legal philosophy on what constitutes "monopoly" can be a real problem for fair competition (which translates to more costs and worse product for everyone, as companies shadow-box law hypotheticals rather than just make good product).
> Welfare cliffs are an unfortunate feature of the American welfare system. They occur when a family’s breadwinner, or an individual, discovers that his or her family will become worse off economically by earning more money. It sounds paradoxical, but it happens whenever the loss in welfare benefits exceeds the additional take-home pay.

Had to double-check...what I said still stands. If people are retaining more of what they earn (nationally, not just on an individual basis), market dynamics should play out that costs are lower, too, meaning you're not chasing increasing prices all the time with the same money (if we were on a Bitcoin standard, that would be even more true as there'd be no means for manipulating the money supply).
Ditto in Finland. Most young people with computers in the early 90's had Ataris and Amigas. I think I saw one single Mac at a friend's house once. Apart from that I didn't see any Macs until the Power Macs started getting popular.
Why does it matter? BlackRock can't print extra bitcoins, can't take them away from you (unless you give it to them to manage it first), can't block you from spending it one way or another, can't prevent you from sending it to someone else, can't block you from receiving it from someone... so, yeah.. the only problems are market manipulations, which ave been happening from day one.

In comparison, governments can print extra money (and they did, fucking up the economy with that), they can block your accounts, they can block accounts from people you want to send money to, they can block international money transfers if they don't like the other country, and in case of fully digital currencies, they can implement all the conspiracy theories, from social scores onwards...
Is there a public git repo that lists all the email campaign providers that are sending these emails and that lists their sending domains, AS numbers and CIDR blocks?

Another question just started rattling around in my head. How do the senders determine the valid and verified email addresses of US citizens? Are they buying lists or are people knowingly opting into this system? Or are they just pulling in email addresses from disparate government databases? Are they using data in ID.me? [1]

Also, is this assured to be a bi-directional communication or is this just a broadcast to the citizens? If I reply will it be to a "noreply@" address? Will these politicians enter into a forum and be open to unscripted and uncensored real time conversations? If it's a broadcast then could it not just be a Twitter feed that optionally links to a vlog post? If this must be targeted to individuals, then is this by chance a reaction to incidents like the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal? [2]

My personal preference would be that politicians just have their own Youtube/Bitchute/Rumble/other channels and let their messages grow organically and let people subscribe to them. If legal to do so they could even monetize the channel to pay for their campaigns. The more popular they are with their constituents, the more ad revenue they make.

If you need stateful files in a microservice, just mount a network filesystem. Yes, it's slow. Yes, it's buggy. Yes, it's not very portable. Yes, there are locking issues. But if you really need stateful files in a microservice, something is already fucked up. Network filesystems are a simple and cheap way to add that functionality and more. You get 'infinite' storage, redundancy, persistence, shared volumes, intra-cluster data availability, centralized data lifecycle management, etc, and no need for more custom Kubernetes logic just to persist some files. It's a shitty solution that is actually good enough.
In Cantonese you can't just say "mh" (the equivalent of "bu"). It's a negator like "not". You have to say "mh [verb]".
The vast majority of my searches are either relevant events or non-contextual to begin with and I rather have the rare case where your example happens to be when I have to add extra search terms, instead than the other way around.

I honestly see HN and Reddit complain about Google results a lot and I wonder if y’all the minority use case tbh.
It's to do with Privacy:

Gatekeeper performs online checks to verify if an app contains known malware and whether the developer's signing certificate is revoked. Gatekeeper, file quarantine etc. are security features also designed for data collection to learn about the files and applications you have in your computer (built in anti-malware on macOS and Windows provide them a perfect excuse to harvest all your file name and file hashes to know more about you). When automatic update is enabled macOS phones Apple periodically, leaking info like your geolocation and network etc.

I do not want to be in a place where this kinda signaling goes top down from the CEO and is not abhorred by the ones doing the work.

As a dev, being forced to first plan and then PROVE that I am NOT lazy, NOT a poor performer and my code is NOT the reason the product sucks is just breeding a CYA culture full of conflicts, closeness, suspicion and politics. The only one's who will survive this environment are not the ones whom you want to retain anyway.

The path to hell is paved with good intentions.
The crux of the matter really is, repetition.

Formal credentialing generally means you demonstrate "I can do this", in a very drawn-out, thorough manner. It's gatekeeping more, but there's a much larger guarantee for your creds to be transferrable from place to place.

In software engineering, you demonstrate "I can do this", in a several-round bout of interviews. And then have to demonstrate it all over again and again, for every single company. Your interview performance is non-transferrable.

My opinion is, the latter is more wasteful as it involves repeating yourself a whole lot.

The former has a higher upfront cost but you are betting in the long run that it will amortize over time as you continue to go on interviews.

The latter has less upfront cost but a greater chance of creating more cost in the long run, depending on how much you interview and where.

OP spent 6 hours- personally I wouldn't spend that much on any assignment, but the bigger issue here is that 6 hours is only valid for one company. Interview "work" is so proprietary and non-transferrable- like currency that is useless outside that one company. You cannot take what you did there and show it elsewhere to expedite an interview. You will have to run through another several-hour process again (whether interviewing or another assignment), for some other variation of a CRUD based problem that they expect developers to do.

I suppose the closest thing we have to avoiding repetition is- the answer many won't like- Leetcode. You still have to navigate through opinionated views of your answers, but at least there are more patterns that carry over that its benefits compound more easily from interview to interview.
I think you misunderstand how investment funds work. The idea is not that individual funds invest in whatever they think will get the best return, or the extent to which they believe in the underlying asset.

Fund management firms create funds based on specific investment ideas; the fund managers receive a mandate based on that investment idea and then people buy the fund (or not) dependent on whether they believe the fund represents good value for the purpose it serves in their portfolio.

You even often see the same fund management firm with one fund that is long an asset, and another that is short the exact same asset.

When fixing legacy code, you can become a victim of your own success. The old crusty systems are usually the company money-makers. Once you show some success at fixing and maintaining them, you become the "go to" person for fixing them. That can be a good thing.

It's a tough rut to get out of but I think you have some leverage if you choose to use it. New frameworks and new projects come and go, but that boring hideous legacy system is the one that survives and the one that brings in money to company. Use that to your advantage to get a raise, create some opportunity, or failing that, bounce to a different company.

Greenfield is always more stressful to me. The deadlines are ridiculous and the requirements sketchy.
You've obviously never heard of the Fifth Amendment. It's actually quite the opposite, the Constitution enhances your right to privacy (by refusing to talk about something) when doing so could be used to prosecute you for a crime.
I thought your set was really funny. You established your character immediately, and then followed up perfectly with your first line which had everyone laughing from the start.

You don't have to trust a third party. You can run a pool yourself and be the one who needs to be trusted.
This is just not how it works in most companies. Unless you're a very senior engineer (and even then sometimes), just going off and doing your own thing will not be tolerated more than once.
> Wearing clothes that are visibly damaged incurs social judgment.

So does wearing clothes that are out of fashion. Draw the line where you want to but don't judge others for choosing differently.
Would you rather be given money or lent money?

It would be a pretty big difference to me.

Lending money today instead of giving money lets leaders and voters today to punt sacrifices to tomorrow’s taxpayers, and of course inflates college tuition prices so the borrowers have reduced purchasing power, as well as future users of the currency.

That is the whole reason lending for college tuition became a thing. Some genius figured out how to cut taxes today while still being able to say they are helping expand access to higher education to poor people and college students.

The Linux equivalent of fileless malware on Windows would be a python script you pipe straight into the interpreter. The whole purpose of “fileless” malware is to not get caught by AV which will alert on a new files being created and executed.

If this malware was piggybacking on the actual python process to do its thing, then maybe you could reasonably call it “fileless”.

That's discussed in the interview, in the first few minutes as I recall.
> I don’t know of any other industry who hires senior people the way we do outside of performing arts.

As a mechanical engineer with sufficient years of experience that would be considered senior in the software world but intermediate in the mechanical world, I have had interviews where we only talked, interviews where I was given a task and put in front of a computer with one hour to complete it, and interviews where I was sent a problem to work on at home. These interview techniques, while perhaps more prevalent, are by no means limited to the software world.

> My performance reviews go great.

So basically you are really good at what you're doing so you get those assignments. Code maintenance is hard and requires experience and familiarity. Other reasons might be cultural.

In any case, if you want to move on to different types of work then expressing interest is a very weak way of doing it. Even in great teams/orgs you need to do more than just say "it would be nice if".

Make a _decision_ and then inform your peers and managers of that decision. If there is a conflict, then work on resolving that conflict within a reasonable timeline. Compromises can be fine, but you first have to assert where you want to go, basically force people to take you seriously. Do all of that in a professional and rational manner and you'll get there.
+1 for 1Password. It’s really quite nice from a user’s perspective, including needing to recover my lost login after getting set up then forgetting about it for a few months. It took only a few minutes to get recovered.

I’m not honestly sure if I’d trust LastPass to be as sensible.
> You’re referring to changes that are qualitatively larger,

No, a change in this context (TFL messaging on result) very explicitly means getting off the train and onto another one, possibly at a different station. The GPs use of "changes" later just refers to changes in the UI.

> The number of changes might be irrelevant to most people

The number of changes is a key bit of information to everyone as it's vital to how you actually get to your destination.
> BTC price is going to spike again due to institutional investors wanting a piece of the game the next bull run

I'm seeing zero evidence of institutional interest increasing for crypto. I'm seeing a lot of chatter on the sell side. Being able to create high-margin exotic and structured products on Bitcoin has thus far being limited. Pointing to a wallet doesn't work. But pointing to a BlackRock trust account does.
Lent securities can be recalled by the lender "whenever they want,
for whatever reason they want, and they do not have to provide

Unfortunately, the borrower does not lend the shares to keep them in their drawer. They sell them. If they cannot buy them back, the lender cannot get them back.

> There are many many libraries available in rust due to the amazing dependency system. But the average quality is quite poor.

The main problem with Rust is that it is thread safe, and that makes code and libraries very hard to write. Thread safety is a lot stricter than memory safety, and since it is easy to write single threaded memory safe modern C++ it gets hard to shift to Rust.

But if you want thread safety or mostly do data processing scripts then Rust is far superior, just that for many applications enforced thread safety is an anti feature since it makes your code way too hard to work with. If they could make ergonomic thread safe libraries for everything then great, but I really doubt it will ever happen as it is very hard to do.
My understanding here is regulation would open the door for many more institutions to pour in, solely from a confidence perspective. Ergo, "to the moon"?
It’s a traditional folk song recorded by dozens of artists. The Kingston Trio are the only ones who charted with it.
Velocity is about familiarity, about expressiveness, about being able to quickly translating what you want to accomplish to code. It’s also about, for me anyway, not being constrained by inherent limits of the language or runtimes. Like I said, checks all the boxes.

As for experience, I have been writing C since the very early nineties and moved on to c++ soon thereafter.

Again, all that is, for the most part anyway, not specific to this language.
Somebody has to mantain "legacy software", heck you can even tell that all software becomes "legacy" at some point.

Without knowing you it's difficult to know why are you selected to work on legacy software. Maybe you're great dealing with old code bases? Maybe other people has a better marketing and come as "rock star" engineers that can work with the last technology?

There are two possible "solutions" I can think of:

- Move jobs once you're assigned to work on legacy software (change jobs each 2-4 years).
- Work in a startup where all software is crucial for the company and even if there are no good-practices, you'll learn many "shiny" technologies.

I'm a really big fan of Chad Fowler's reframing of legacy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH_y45he4-o

TLDW: In most endeavors in life, legacy is a positive thing, a bequest or accomplishment that you leave behind for future generations. Only in software do we have such a negative feelings towards "legacy"

For software to become legacy code, a system has to survive and that means it has to a) work and b) be useful. You're working on something that has stood the test of time. Just as it's much harder to restore an ancient, archeological treasure like The Colosseum, it's harder to work on legacy software... You were chosen for a task that's challenging, but important.
being a janitor often pays really well

When I was a kid, maybe 5th or 6th grade, my family was driving out in the country and came upon a burning farmer's field.

We stopped to help, and my older brother and I were charged with keeping an eye on the smoking remains of a field that had already burned out. The adults, and my younger siblings, went to fight the actual fire.

By the time it was all over, my brother and I were both feeling slighted and sidelined. But as we got back to the car, my mother, may she rest in peace, told us how much responsibility we had been given, to be set such an important job, with no adult supervision, the farmer must have thought we were older than we really are.

Two points, I suppose. First, one doesn't always appreciate one's salient qualities. Second, 45+ years later, that episode still stands out in my memory for how rewarding it felt.

If you're really old-school, you know that it makes sense to require the "www" prefix. Why should the machine pointed to by the bare domain be the web server, instead of for instance the FTP server or the Gopher server? It's not necessarily the same machine which provides all these protocols, and putting the web server there is privileging one protocol over another.

Of course, that ship has long sailed; everyone uses HTTP now, even for things where it doesn't make sense, and one should at least have a tiny web server pointed to by the bare domain which redirects to the correct "www"-prefixed address. The fate of bare domains was sealed when browsers started prefixing "www." and suffixing ".com" whenever one typed a bare word in the address bar.
