considering that Black Friday, Qatar World Cup and Christmas are all in the next 30 days, one might have thought he'd want to capitalize on the increased traffic and advertiser interest in his first week on the job.

It doesn't even look like there will be any advertisers left by the time the dust settles.
Doesn't it get exhausting to jump through so many mental hoops to minimize someone's accomplishments?

I don't understand what people get out of this, is it really that painful to admit that some guy has done some pretty cool things with his life? All the effort it takes to research all the negative things about someone could've been spent doing something productive. Being willing to admit that someone did something awesome could've been exciting or inspiring.

And yet people work so hard to think around all the good things, and take the most negative view possible. Ugh, I don't like this part of human nature.
Something else interesting they're doing is their tsnet package, which lets you join your process to the tailnet and bind tcp listeners/connect to TCP services via their tailnet IP or subnet.

I'm writing some stuff using this at the moment, but I also just saw https://github.com/tailscale/golink which does the same thing: a single binary that runs a link shortener that joins itself to your tailnet.

tl;dr: don't run your service on a machine then join that to tailnet, directly bind your service to an in-memory tailnet client
Assume people are smart, tell them about the actual job & and it’s responsibilities, tell them about the challenges of the job, ask them if it actually sounds like an interesting position, and then test them a bit on relevant things to see if they sounds reasonably competent.
I guess we're about to find out if it really was all necessary talent that left. If Twitter usage continues to increase, even with some crashes, that will probably indicate that many former employees were not actually performing useful work, and so would be unlikely to "build a new Twitter."
DANE doesn't revoke any CAs. You can read AGL's post about why DANE just adds an nth new CA to the trust store (or, it would: no browser currently plans to adopt DANE; browsers actually removed their DANE code).

Meanwhile: it simply is the case that if LetsEncrypt starts misissuing certificates, Google and Mozilla can (and likely will) revoke it. Meanwhile: if the operators of the root zone or any the FVEY TLDs misissue, nobody can revoke them.

You could try to argue that this was academic, except that the USG routinely and publicly manipulates the DNS for policy reasons.
I honestly want to see Twitter's financials before it goes. I have a suspicion that a lot of it's revenue was from government sources, especially after Arab Spring.
Twitter employees quit in droves after Elon Musk's ultimatum passes
By that token, what specifically is the clinical benefit to the vomit stage of chemo?

The argument is that the vomiting is a necessary step of this powerful medicine, and that the medicine is curing mental disease.

I'm not defending ayahuasca, I actually do think it's a sketchy corner of the psychedelic world to be trodden on very carefully, if at all. Just trying to supply the perspective.
Um, yeah. Knowing a language generally involves putting time into learning and the benefit is not forgetting stuff. You seem to not want to own the fact that your entire impression is predicated on it being not practical for someone not interested in investing any time into it. But I’m not sure that the input from such people is ever valuable.
Thank you! Millions of folks are going through the same thing, I have to remind myself that I'm so so fortunate to live close to world class hospitals and have a job that provides health insurance.
If you pay the subscription yearly, it makes sense, though it's not completely ideal. You get a fallback license for the version at the time you paid for the year. The monthly subscription complicates this because someone could game the fallback license scheme if you were immediately granted a fallback license (e.g., you only subscribe for 1 month every year). This is why I think JetBrains updates the fallback license every 12 consecutive months. The monthly subscription acts equivalent to that of the yearly. Ideally, yes, it would be nice if the fallback license was effective from when your subscription ended rather than the last yearly renewal.
Most people working at a startup in which you have equity will make nothing from the equity. You do get to fantasize, like buying a lottery ticket.

I would say for me working hard at startups was mostly because I enjoyed the technical challenge, the culture, and the team I was working with. And I was paid pretty well. I placed $0 value on my equity (and for me that's also what it ended up being worth).
I can contribute one more data point: Space X invented a new alloy steel to drive down the cost of the surface material of Space X rockets to $4/kg. That's some serious science and engineering. And this improvement is probably a very small one compared with thousands of innovations made by Space X.
Thanks for suggestion!
Haven't worked with Nix ecosystem yet, but definitely going to check it out and see what works in the end.
I'm in a couple of classes with extensive reading.

I'm not sure how I'm going to get through the rest of this semester without zlib.
> I love how the goalposts keep shifting all the time

Which ones? The ones where cars would self-deliver five years ago? That Mars colonisation would have begun this year? That Cybertruck would deliver three years ago?

The goalposts are Elons.
> Several factors were more likely to be associated with adverse events occurring, including: A higher use of ayahuasca in the previous year or lifetime

But how do you know if you've used it in a previous lifetime, without first trying it?
It’s possible that the bias is deserved. Alcohol, as a drug, strictly speaking, is one of the worse ones.

The idea that “prescription meds” (a group containing everything from antibiotic eyedrops to morphine) should somehow blanket be considered “worse” than alcohol (usually simply because alcohol is available without a prescription) is a little bit of silly and unscientific bias itself.

I also know a lot more alcohol addicts resulting from self-medicating for anxiety than I do benzo addicts from self-medicating for anxiety.
Even calling them a bleeding edge tech company is selling them short. They are the only company in the world that can do what they do. Their website could have pictures of clowns in cars on it, and it wouldn't matter.
New FTX chief says crypto group’s lack of control worse than Enron
I take phenibut. All the social inhibition removal but none of the mental impairment of alcohol.
The opening paragraph is devastating:

<<
The new chief executive of FTX, an insolvency professional who oversaw the liquidation of Enron, has said that the bankruptcy of the crypto group is the worst case of corporate failure he has seen in more than 40 years.

John Ray III, who was appointed to run the FTX bankruptcy, said in a US court filing that he had never seen “such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial information”.

Will SBF go to jail?
Could recent Twitter refugees just cook up a new Twitter?
Most of you got a severance package, no? And AFAICT non-competes aren't legal in California.

So how about a server in Go, maybe starting with the old school character limit and no fancy stuff like video or images?

Throw it up on Github and see where you get in two weeks. If it looks decent enough then try running a Wikipedia-style donation run. Or make a funky new developer coop business. Or simply a regular business and battle it out publicly with your former boss!

Hell, you could start by limiting access only to the thousands of you who just got fired. People would probably pay just to get read access to watch you communicate over the service as you build it.

As a bonus, I'd be happy to test the Iphone app. (Thursday afternoons after 11 a.m. Eastern work well for me.)
