I joined a startup last year and was given a $200K salary and $50K in stock options. If we're successful and reach a valuation of $5B, my options will be worth $1M.

And that's not even accounting for evergreen option grants and bonuses.
I would def like to hear more about this if you can elaborate. I have long believed that Reddit is mostly bots because of how often (current thing) is pushed to the front, and any dissenting opinions are downvoted and buried
A very helpful post, thanks for sharing it!
I have no problem paying creators for content. If a creator I follow has a patreon or some other method of supporting them I pay for it without hesitation.

What I do have a problem with is supporting a company that is actively destroying the free internet. I think Google is a much bigger cause of the issues of the internet today than me attempting to maintain freedom in how I consume my carefully selected media.

For example: I want to watch videos in mpv, which tiles nicely in my WM, and doesn't have toxic social media features such as like buttons, comments, and related videos which serve no purpose other than to entice me into wasting time watching useless content.
I was just happy that @pmarca finally shut up with his "current thing" bit after Bucha. I generally like the tech community but the edgelord schtick is extremely common and gross.
That’s fair; personally I just skip them because a web extension isn’t going to do anything for me in the YouTube app anyway, but some YouTubers make a fun skit out of their sponsors when they have them. I’ll usually watch those if I have the time.
Vulnerability discovery and programming are different skill sets. I've seen terrible code written by talented security researchers.
> I don't see why reading a story would be superior to having someone tell you a story. I doubt The Odyssey was a lesser experience before it was written down.

Well I don't think it necessarily has to be lesser, especially if it's designed to be verbally delivered, but it's a different art form, and it's not how most literature was created to be delivered. So it seems fairly obvious that you're going to lose something in the translation. The question is just whether or not that something that is lost is significant enough to care about.
I can't comment on haproxy because I haven't used it enough, but I think that the "nginx's config is easy to grasp" posture has a bit of Stockholm syndrome in it.

- Do you want to add a header in this "location" block? Great, you better remember to re-apply all the security headers you've defined at a higher level (server block for instance) because of course adding a new header will reset those.

- Oh, you mixed prefix locations with exact location with regex locations. Great, let's see if you can figure out by which location block will a request end up being processed. The docs "clearly" explain what the priority rules for those are and they're easy to grasp [1].

- I see you used a hostname in a proxy_pass directive (e.g.: http://internal.thing.com). Great, I will resolve it at startup and never check again, because this is the most sensible thing to do of course.

- Oh... now you used a variable (e.g.: http://$internal_host). That fundamentally changes things (how?) so I'll respect the DNS's TTL now. Except you'll have to set up a DNS resolver in my config because I refuse to use the system's normal resolver because reasons.

- Here's an `if` directive for the configuration. It sounds extremely useful, doesn't it? Well.. "if is evil" [2] and you should NOT use it. There be dragons, you've been warned.

I could go on... but I think I've proved my point already. Note that these are not complaints, it's just me pointing out that nginx's configuration has its _very_ significant warts too.

It’s no more or less made up then the white supremacist narrative in the US. Yes they are real, yes you can fill a football stadium with them,no they are not even a noticeable percent of the population thanks to how large both counties are.

Using the example above, you get $25,000 in stock every 3 months. So the number of shares are variable, so the price is irrelevant to you. If you sell as soon as you get it, it's the same as $25k cash, e.g. completely divorced from the stock price.

If it was tied to the stock price, like every other RSU program on the planet, you'd get x number of shares. So as stock price goes up, your compensation goes up. Your compensation is tied to the stock price.

Imagine you had an ideal switch that could disconnect a circuit instantly.

Any devices powered on that circuit with transformers, inductors or motors in (think vacuum cleaners, power tools, microwaves, blenders, etc) will have a current flowing through them, and as that current is interrupted there will be a huge voltage spike - easily 10x the normal voltage for a few milliseconds.

If a human is touching that circuit, the 10x higher voltage will cause 10x more current to flow into the human.

Hooray - your 'safer' RCD kills more people.

The real solution is to have a more complex switch which disconnects the circuit at the same time as shorting out the circuit, to allow any current that was flowing to gradually dissipate into the wiring resistance. To my knowledge, such things don't exist today.

I hated it when it came out for its inaccuracy, but man it's just so much fun I'm developing a video game inspired by it!

Actually, I take that back. In terms of culture it was not that far off the mark. I went to college near New York City, and it turned out to be a local hotbed for activity in the MOD/tracker scene. I used to pal around with one guy who was a big deal in the KFMF, and he looked like he could have come right off the set of Hackers. Even used the handle "Phreak" for a bit and had Hackers soundtrack posters on the wall. Because you know, awesomest soundtrack(s) of all time and that.
The right wing "ultranationalist" party Svoboda (In electoral alliance with National Corps, Right Sector, Ukrainian Volunteer Army (Azov), Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, and Congress of Ukrainian Nationalists) managed to get 2.15% of the votes at the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election.

It's pretty difficult for me to see how Ukraine can be "overrun with explicitly neo nazi groups" with that amount of support for their right-wing parties.

Unless of course you live in Russia's fantasy world where a Jewish president can be a neo-nazi
> The scores are low, because the schools inside the university are VERY selective. There are a large number of freshmen who do not get into their first choice major their sophomore year. This is because they don't have the necessary achievement to be competitive, not because the school sucks.

I wholly disagree. Sounds like the school sucks to me. If I had a choice between entrance into my chosen major at a different institution, and your school, I would choose my major. As students are often applying for 5+ schools, they may not understand the nuances of each schools admissions process, and the admissions departments may intentionally obscure unpleasant details like this.

If this practice is bad enough to drag down scores across the whole institution on RMP, it sounds like a lot of kids are getting suckered into thinking they got into a great engineering program, but then get shoveled into whatever department needs them to fill their quota.

It's _hard_ for undergraduates to transfer schools after freshman year, at least in USA.

Founder here, Luos is an embedded microservices orchestrator for developing and scaling edge and embedded distributed systems.
Luos is built in C. Luos can connect different MCUs together and give you access to multiple features created by developers for developers (remote control, bootloader, routing table, timestamp etc…)

I got the idea to develop Luos by seeing the lack of agility we have in the embedded world as developers.

I am convinced that we can use philosophies like microservices to be as agile as software.
To meet the needs of different developers, I chose to make the technology free and open-source so that everyone can adapt it as they wish.
Do you get dedicated IOs on these too? AWS tends to throttle heavily most instances after some time.
Most building codes (as adopted by the AHJs) do not require systems not part of the job to be brought up to current code if they met code at the time of install, are in good repair, and are not being significantly worked on. You can add an addition without converting all the old bedroom breakers to AFCI. (That represents a much higher safety risk than any generator inlet could possibly be.)
I can't see how it's surprising that there should be overwhelming partiality on these services against an invading power. On the contrary, it encourages me to see it.

Inevitably there's propaganda and disinformation on either side. But the unarguable fact in this war is that there's now mass death, destruction and suffering because Russia chose to invade Ukraine.
Yes, and they'd like to continue that distraction. They'd like Russia to continue antagonizing the West long term, which will be harder if they are defeated in Ukraine. The more humiliating the defeat, the harder it will be for Russia to continue providing China with cover.

They don't care one way or the other about Ukraine, but they are definitely concerned that they may have to alter their long-term plans.

They do so constantly. The youtube-dl project kind of died (at least for some time - seems to be active again) because they were behind with mitigating those issues and the often-updated yt-dlp took over.
Most business ventures have risk of failure and loss of capital. How does that work in this model?

If the capital comes from the employees, this loss would be very hard for them and probably would not appropriate for more workers.

If the capital comes from a bank, is there collateral? If so, where did the capital for that collateral come from? If not, does the bank need to lend to you at an extremely high interest rate for it to be worth the investment?

If the capital comes from investors who have an equity stake in this, how is it different than any other VC? Who keeps the profits when the business is up and running (the employees or the investors)? If the employees, why would the investors invest?

Yes.

Propaganda is defined as:

"information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view."

If we accept that as a definition, it is clear that everything that is biased (* and is misleading ) is propaganda ( and if you think for more than a second, you recognize that everything is indeed biased to a degree ). Now.. whether is it is misleading.. can be in the eye of the beholder.

Caddy's logger (uber/zap) is zero-allocation. We've found that the writing of the logs is often much slower, e.g. printing to the terminal or writing to a file. And that's a system problem more than a Caddy one. But the actual emission of logs is quite fast last time I checked!
Also, Chromecast (Ultra) now shows a YouTube app when casting to it. This app puts recommendations on the screen. Even with premium, ads will show when I select one to watch. There's an option to sign in, but if I select it, it just says I can't sign in.

Also, with chromecast, it's really annoying that they allow multiple users to put videos in the queue, but only have my videos be ad free.
It effectively removes the multiphone feature because I have to look up and play (and ruin my recommendations) on my phone anyways. One premium users being connected should be enough to kill all of the ads.

I've also had ads rarely and randomly show up. If I had to guess, some "is this user premium" server was down, and it decided to default to "no", despite that being the explicitly frustrating experience for paying users.

That's true - some kinds of social engineering cannot be prevented by technical means. BUT hardware keys prevent an entire class of extremely common attacks that every other form of MFA is vulnerable to. It would have prevented the method of compromise used here.

I think this would probably be limited to being used as a treatment in people with drug use disorders, and maybe people at risk for it. Widely deploying a vaccine against any recreational drugs would be ethically suspect and economically senseless. Most people never even try meth, and some people need meth or more commonly amphetamine to treat things like ADHD, narcolepsy and other sleep disorders(non-24), as you point out.
Even if you are a person who will never in your life end up as any kind of person of interest for the government, handing over data in this way could still be quite dangerous.

Phones will often contain data that can facilitate theft and fraud if ending up in the wrong hands. If they're able to copy everything, including private data from all apps that could be quite bad. For example many countries now use apps to login to online banking, with private keys for the login stored in the app. Will that be copied? Will it ever be found out if one of the 3000 government officials with access to this data sold it on darknet markets?

Similar SecOps problems happened to both John McAfee and the Silk Road founder.

As far as I remember, McAfee shared an iPhone photo with location metadata when he was in Belize, so American authorities were able to track him down.

The Silk Road founder had some sort of PHP coding error which led police to his San Francisco location. That is, you could simply visit the Silk Road home page and his location leaked.

So yeah criminals aren't better at SecOps. They're just more reckless than most people...

this is a bad take

1. the us had open borders because they could offer land to people coming in, it had economic benefits for everyone involved. nowadays, EVERYONE wants to get in, especially actors with bad intentions, and as was just shown in europe not even five years ago now, open borders are a terrible idea with long lasting consequences.

2. economic growth does not simply derive from a larger population, there's a balance between population size and the economic prosperity of each individual within that population, to tip the scale so absolutely in only one direction completely destroys the scale itself

3. geopolitics are not so black and white. it derives complexities in more areas than just population, and the US does not have a small population, nor do its allies
