By contract. The law requires one week after one month employment, convention is probably about four weeks, although varies by sector and role. I think it is legally required to be symmetrical (ie they can't say you must give six months notice but we can fire you in a week), certainly I've never seen an asymmetrical notice period.

I've never looked for serious work other than as a programmer, so it may just be this sector, but yes, it's completely normal that hires can't start immediately. Ninety days is longer than most, but it's not extraordinary. People we've hired into our team typically needed maybe six weeks ? Sometimes they want an actual physical break, like four weeks notice to their previous employer, spend a week on a beach somewhere, then come to the new job.

Particularly if you're poaching people you know the term because you presumably asked them.

It is legal for both employee and employer to offer other terms when leaving, but neither has a right to force the other. One thing that often happens when this is amicable is both agree to shuffle vacation time around, so e.g. say I have 8 days paid leave left, and I'm on 90 day terms, we look at the calendar, maybe the employer agrees we can shove all that paid leave at the end, round a bit and my last working day is here, 75 days, not 90 days. They could force that not to happen, but we're leaving on friendly terms. Of course now I don't have any real leave, but if a new employer wants me ASAP that might be a reasonable trade to start a couple of weeks sooner (note in this scenario I'm getting paid for 90 days still, but money is poor compensation for being tired).

Got a call from my manager:

— Arent you coming today? You are late.

— I was at the office until 2:00 am yesterday, Im coming late today.

— It doesnt matter, you should be here, now!

(some fruitless quick discussion)

— Ok, I quit.
> Edit 3: It's been 11 hours since the contact, about 1.37 billion entries have been pulled. DBeaver has crashed multiple times and we've left it running. It's "fetching rows" still. So I guess there's still more.
Considering the entries are from all over the world, it is unlikely we will sell or release this. Lastly, this data contains a lot of under aged people. Releasing such information, along with the data that is being stored without user's knowledge is so dire that we think it could spark something dangerous. Example: WeChat (Which is state owned) is within the same database as the TikTok DB (which claims not to give such information to their government).

>For many, the last 20 years are only miserable because they didn't take care of themselves.

Considering that about 40 million adult Americans are on anti-depressants (smoking and drinking aside), it seems like more of an issue then just failing physical health of the elderly.
Life is better when you stop caring about having something ideal. Because nothing ever has been or ever will be ideal. As soon as we achieve today's ideals, the goal posts will have been moved to something else we can only just not get.
I still think the USB 2.0 era was the peak.

Until we get a decent sample, I remain skeptical.
FWIW, I asked my question in good faith. For a hack such as this, which appears to include massive databases of one of the most highly-visible companies in the world, I'd expect a bit more meat.

>In the course of this article, the Pakon film scanners went from being a user’s nightmare to being totally usable with modern versions of Windows.

Right, but I think it's still nightmare because Windows require driver signature verification by default. But why there's dedicated kernel driver at all? I wonder how feasible would be transplating decompiled driver code into userspace shim that uses WinUSB.
Remarkable! I'd buy you a beer if you're old enough to have one :) Really cool project and write-up! Looking forward to any future posts
That's not true, what's a non-starter is giving developers direct access to production data and production systems.

You can do that without removing LOCAL admin rights.
You've misread their reply. MRI's sometimes use contrast dye. I've personally had these sorts of dyes, both on brain and spinal cord scans (I have MS and get these regularly) and for the first scan of my pancreas (non-symptomatic cyst they are watching to be cautious).

For the average person, none of it matters. Every single one of the cables does charging, most users charge their phone overnight so everything works well enough. Some users will have a thunderbolt cable that came with their monitor that they will leave plugged in and is identifiable by being thick and stiff.

I had the sense that Dalvik is a much more complex design, far too complex for a single hacker, additionally handicapped by backward compatibility with earlier Dalvik versions.
"5G isn’t just about phones. It’s about IoT..."

That line shows up in press releases:

"Imagine a world where car accidents are a thing of the past; where chronic health conditions like diabetes are managed 24-7 without blood sugar highs and lows; where smart homes unlock doors with a face scan, and then automatically adjust lighting and temperature and even order groceries for delivery before you run out of milk."

None of which require 5G. Those are all low-bandwidth applications, or even ones that run locally.
Some of the instruments (colors) seem to have a limited set of notes available. The first I selected was one if those, felt like I was unable to create any sound, before noticing instruments could be switched.

It needs a hard mode with 12 half tones per octave available.

This is pretty much exactly the reason I stopped running my own mail. I had the mail host on a static IP, part of a block of "pristine" IPs from a local colocation operation (iNOC in Albany, NY). Ran fine for years, but I started having to call more and more customers about "why haven't you answered my email from two weeks ago?" only to find out I ended up in the spam bin. Wasn't worth it when the risk was losing business.

I moved to Proton Mail as I like their simple interface and support their goals. Pretty good service so far, worth paying for, but I do sort of miss running my own services.

If you run your own mail server in 2022, you are the resistance.

That's funny, no arm64 options are one of my complaints about GCP.
> for crying out loud, why? just stick with http.

Because on a busy server, it's better to have lower number of interpreter processes than one per HTTP request. So multiple requests need to be passed to a single interpreter process, so there has to be some multiplexing of the requests into single data channel. Also some aspects of HTTP are traditionally handled by the frontend web server, and some requests do not reach the language interpreter (various access denials, client errors, etc.) So simple HTTP between web server and language interpreter on the same machine is not necessarily a particularly great idea; it would inhibit the development and even performance. It makes sense to parse text once and then pass data between programs in binary form. Fastcgi was good enough, so it stuck.
It's not a paid add-on... GnuPG is open source. They are selling a support plan in case you need help with open source.

Here is the same thing, without the paid support. https://github.com/Free-GPGMail/Free-GPGMail

- GPG Suite was released under an Open Source license in the past. Is that stil the case?

You GPG Suite including GPG Mail is still going to be released under an Open Source license.

- Am I still allowed to compile my own version of GPG Mail / GPG Suite removing any code regarding the trial or activation?

You absolutely are, the GPL makes sure of that. You will find the source code on this website next to the download link for GPG Suite.

We would kindly like to ask you not to use our names or icons if you plan to publish a binary for others to use. Also please do not release any complete installers as that may suggest that they are official releases.

Cold air holds less water, so that makes sense.

It is like pouring 200ml of water from a 1000ml jug into a 200ml jug. Same water, higher % fillage (to use a technical term).
As a counterpoint, I host a couple of domains with Dreamhost and have had no such issues. They've been serving the email for my main domain for 15 years and AFAIK I've never had any of those emails go directly to spam within Gmail or elsewhere. I do periodic smoke testing by sending test emails to different place, plus I have a reasonable number of external users making use of the domains for email as well. FWIW I moved all my DNS records to Cloudflare, but that was only in last couple of years.

> The Linux employees should all be fired for their breach-of-contract with poor Red Hat.

While I appreciate your sarcasm, it is a bit weird that davem dropped that report on the floor altogether for what looks akin to a lack of paperwork.

Not accepting the patch as-is, sure, I get it, process matters. But if the upstream network stack is under your purview one would expect the underlying bug to still be acknowledged, prioritized, and corrected.

This whole thing surprises me since I've interacted with davem via email on multiple occasions. He's always struck me as an asset to the kernel community and caring of upstream issues esp. in the network side.

I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt here and presume he assumed the patch's author would follow-up with the necessary acks if it indeed were a genuine bugfix. A lack of follow-up to a maintainer somewhat implies it was a bogus patch and there was nobody willing to corroborate and sign off on it.
why mention this, the need to post a comment cannot possibly be stronger than the decency to not spoil anything in a comment system that doesn't even have spoiler tags. Just delete that comment =)

If that were true companies would never hire in the Bay Area, or even the United States. There’s always a cheaper alternative.

The question is, once the company has decided it wants you, what’s that going to take? Making national median offers to Bay Area candidates essentially swears off of ever hiring them. That could be a choice, but for now it remains a bench of talent and experience that companies want to draw from, even if not exclusively.

Making Bay Area offers to rural candidates is giving them 4-5x their next best option, which is characteristic of either a) the devil, or b) rich people making expressive displays rather than business transactions.

It’s like everything else, your leverage is your next best alternative, and until work goes fully remote location is a factor in that.

EDIT: I will add that if you think calibrating an offer based on the worker’s alternatives is crass, think for a second about what exactly your skills, education, and experience are for. Those work through the same mechanism. If that mechanism is wrong, you should be happy to work for the national median wage across all industries and all education levels. Even a mediocre SWE salary is way too high.
You don’t know that. We just interpret the original complaint differently. If someone says their frustration with a phone tree “sets the tone” that implies something about the following conversation. A “tone” doesn’t mean anything without a conversation.

Complaining on HN will not get any closer to changing the actual problem. I offered possible explanations elsewhere — multiple vendors, incompatible systems, outsourcing, deliberate friction to reduce human call volume, anti-fraud. Sheer incompetence or even malice present possible explanations too. I stand by my original answer: Things don’t necessarily work the way we think they should, that’s simply a fact, so there’s no point letting yourself get aggravated about those things.
Not all those folders. Try utilities or news or leon or games or social_communication. You could be forgiven for thinking it was all of them, though -- not having anything in weather or music_audio, for a moment I thought so too.

I self host my private email server since 2005. Never had big problems. One time my server was wrong configured and then marked on spamhaus. Just fill in a form and all works fine again. Maybee gmail will blacklist me in some weeks, but fuck you gmail, I have nearby no one that uses a gmail account.
I had in all this year no problem with any other peer. So, maybee the writer has just a malconfigured mailserver or don't know that he is marked on spamhaus because any reason.
Because many of the studios think that big budgets and flashy effects can cover for nonsensical plots, mediocre acting, and characters whose choices do not fit with who they are.

And frequently these mediocre writers roll into established franchises and actively make editorial decisions as if they're the reason were watching e.g. LotR. Newsflash, Tolkien is a far better writer than whoever is on Amazon's payroll, probably best to just stick to his ideas whenever possible. If you want to innovate you'd piss less people off doing a mediocre job in a brand new universe.
They're not refusing to distribute the software, they're restricting it for NSFW uses, of which the danger is more significant than any positive uses - much like automatic fire.
My company back then did some NDA'd research prototype work for Nokia about Linux and touchscreens. My personal conspiracy theory always was that they had tied the company so strongly to Symbian that they just couldn't announce anything else. I hypothesized that they only got some big companies on board Symbian by promising to be "exclusively Symbian for X years" -- and the X ended up being too long, the industry moved on before they could move off of Symbian. Or they were just too afraid of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_effect

They had everything they needed to run Linux on (some of) their phones quite early on. Battery life might not have been great, but they had plenty of Linux-running mobile hardware around, kept in bags outside of the building.
Idiomatic Haskell would probably use eg Software Transactional Memory for concurrency; but that would be too high level for the kernel.

A Haskell-like language for kernel development would lean heavily on linear typing. Some prototypes have been made and used.
YoU'vE g0t mE nOstAlgiC for AOL. I wrote my own chat file servers and apps for downloading(which amounted to opening a span of emails and adding to download manager.) Chat servers I made/used forwarded the uploaded emails, first made with a tool like you're talking about if not included, but then you'd typically unpack it yourself after dl. AOL has a bad rep with tech people, but it was sure nice them hosting all this rather than what you might have elsewhere and a fun platform to play on.

Tasks like this or even punters(html heading tag denial of service through instant message lol) were what got me interested in programming in middle school, no training or education, just hacking around trying to figure things out in a pirated VB3.0. The community was great with private chatrooms full of users testing and helping others, trying out tools. People shared libraries to learn from, use, adapt. Anyone remember the popular old and terribly named genocide.bas? I'd like to get my hands on some of these old proggies and code if they're still out there.. Or even just the cartoon sheep program which would run around the desktop interacting with window borders.

Still, props to the OP for releasing. This is the exactly the kind of thing I'd get nerd sniped on.

First, I'd figure out a method for finding all walkable terrain on the map, then figure out some sampling function to approximate taking a screenshot every "n" steps.

Then I'd write a hack to get the emulator to fly me through all these points, take the screenshots, and dump them to a directory.

Then I'd spend a long time trying to get the "click through" and "blur" navigation method through street view working.

What is interesting about street view is that; your cursor is aware of what is the "floor" and what is a "house" or "surface" with high accuracy, and places that you can navigate to on the "floor" are highlighted before tapping on them. I wonder if some depth data is captured by the camera that allows this to happen, or if it's coming purely from the images/computer vision techniques.

TLDR: Even with the basic level of complexity OP had, I bet this took him a few weekends. I would get nerd sniped by the above, for like 4 months.
> it's impossible to have a discussion about concerns like these without everyone retreating to "Their corners"

Which means that not only do advanced economies fail to reap the full benefit of the technologies they develop (because people resist them for wrong reasons), but also the people in those societies get harmed by flaws in the technology that could have been addressed if a proper open conversation were possible.

This means that conspiracy theories and misinformation ends up doing double damage, making it the ideal weapon of authoritarian regimes which have more control over their country's media and less of a technological advantage (so holding back technology in other countries helps them close the gap).

I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to imagine how this might apply to the online discourse around Covid and vaccines, but I'll give a clue about which country might have the most to gain from misinformation about both that topic and about 5G technology:

Having worked on other large projects with a maintainer model - there is a general lack of ownership. The engineer who is trying to get their patch merged doesn’t feel ownership of the project, and the maintainer rarely feels ownership of any particular CR.

I don’t know if any better model for a project like Linux, but I’d bet good money that neither author nor maintainer felt like they owned the fix for this bug.
