Tolkien would disagree. So strongly in fact that he wrote an entire fantasy series about it!
We've been here before with Windows XP. It'll be fine.
Fwiw: the hoops are automated these days if you are on xgspon.

It's "plug in sfp+, upload firmware using web interface, enter equipment serial number"

You can even skip step 2 depending on the sfp stick you use.

The 802.1x state is not actually verified server side. The standard says modems should not pass traffic when 802.1x is required but not done. Most do anyway or can be changed to do so. AT&T side does not verify, and always passes traffic. That is what is happening under the covers.
This jives with my experience as well. Chinese has a ton of near homophones that are distinguished by tone. One interesting result of this is that Chinese speakers seem to hate hate hate accents, even just from other parts of China. I hear because it's just mentally taxing to listen to.

Though I'm certainly not 100% bilingual. I like to think it isn't just that I'm annoying to listen to. I have heard other speakers get put down as sounding like 'birds chirping' which seems to be a popular way to describe accents.
Let me put this straight. You are just lazy and those interviews are intended to filter out lazy engineers. Training for coding interviews is not a problem. You just need to spend 1-2hr daily and solve couple of hundred leetcode tasks total for less than a year. After this you'll not have any problem with this type of interviews at all. Additionally they boost up your coding skills and problems solving skills. You do not realize it yet because you did not train.

Sorry, still reading so having gotten there yet. How does Salesforce offering a "light" version of encryption at rest improve security? Or are you saying it's a better balance of performance / security by only selectively encrypting specific data points?
In my experience, a lot of the motivating factors for large enterprises mandating encryption at rest aren't about specific security controls. They will often hand wave in that direction, but as as the OP says in their post, without being able to describe a coherent threat model.

Instead a lot of motivating factors I've seen are about preventing various paths for "legitimate" data disclosure to third parties. For example, when data at rest is combined with additional requirements like "bring your own key" it means a subpoena or NSL needs to be served on the _first party who owns the data_ (as they need to provide the keys) and can't be served on just the cloud provider without the first party having at least visibility of it.
Thanks for turning me on to this subject. It's interesting. I took a look at this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.11453
I think you're looking at the wrong side of the issue. If you're working in a team, why would the developers ever be so hostile that you need cryptography to validate this information? Why isn't running "set($commit:tested, true)" on some shared database enough?

On the other hand, you're missing half the benefits of the CI by not ensuring the tests run in a common, predictable environment. The tests may pass for the developer but not elsewhere by accident.
It’s more the principle of the thing… if I buy a domain for $3 and it’s $30 next year, I’m just going to switch my stuff over to .com or .net where the price is predictable.
I've lived and worked in multiple countries and international environments. I always get a US/EU (Intl) ANSI, also used as the modern Dutch keyboard layout, configured to get umlauts and accents. I used to drag around my own X keyboard definition for years, but the last eight years or so I settled for the included "eu (EurKEY)" layout, which was really close to my own anyway. Check that out if you occasionally have to manoeuver Western and Northern European languages, because it gives you more without taking away the regular QWERTY stuff you're used to. I speak about six or seven languages, and I can get around with just this one layout, which makes things so much easier.

Get me a regular US/EU ANSI keyboard or laptop, or get somebody else to do the job, really. This is so basic in dev/sec/ops that I'm not willing to faff around.
Reminds me of this quote from Douglas Adams:

I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:
1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.

It's been used to criticize anyone who rejects new technology, but it's just a funny quote that has some truth to it.
Your RAID reports an issue with one of the disks. You disable it and have the DC staff swap it. What happens to the disk? It might be resold. It might be put into the next server. It might land in an office drawer with a label "to be wiped".
> A perfect compiler would compile instantly (or at least faster than human perception is capable of registering)

That seems lika a very arbitrary requirement. I'd say a perfect implementation of anything must do what it is supposed to be doing, and that may have a lower bound on processing time. You can't write to memory faster than what the bus allows, for example.
Learn how to point at something and ask "how do you say?" This will get you way further.
As a 3d printer enthusiast, I think this is really cool. But as someone who built an ADU a few years ago, I fail to see how this will address affordability in any meaningful way.

Building a structure is a lot more than framing. For our project, the framers were on site a few weeks out of the six-month total.

I think modular pre-fab building is a much more effective strategy for this segment of the market. Perhaps 3d printing techniques can increase productivity there, but I'm not quite show how.
Thank you, after reading your reply I have some direction now. I will first try to write an article and post it on various channels to see the effect.
Data is both at rest and in memory. It’s not mutually exclusive. Binary backups or images of data encrypted at rest will continue to be encrypted.
Especially the Columbia Board turning off it's entire Law Review website because it published an article about the international legal frameworks them at grew out of the Nakba.

Whatever side you take, it's shocking how quickly elite colleges have whiplashed back and forth and basically taken no simple, practical, strong stance that both upholds order and the freedom of academic expression they've long been known for.

These diversity statements were a large part of it. By making your offensiveness and marketability to students (esp. URM students) a fundamental part of one's hirability, these statements were a part of chipping away at academic freedom that's now led to where we are today.
nix does not have haskells semantics
There's probably some low-hanging concepts of rules, like A can have X of B. I guess if you work out what four or five of the most common rules are you could build just for them and have the rules in the YAML, as they'll be enough for the tools using backends like this.

Limits would be a good name I think for that rule.

Hi, I'm Facundo. I'm a Software Engineer with over 15 years of experience, most recently developing and operating large-scale backend systems.
I've done technical leadership, project management, and legacy modernizations.
I'm good at understanding business and customer needs, and writing reliable software.
Depends very much on the track. Rather simplified a corvettes tend to be slightly faster on the straights and 911 faster in the corners. Of course it also depends a lot on exactly which 911 and Corvette we are talking about. The performance difference between the 'budget' 911 and top of the line 911 is pretty huge.
Also, relief of emotional discomfort can help the patient adopt more behaviors that are associated with positive changes in mental health, such as exercise and pursuing social engagements.
Oh, for sure what I said wouldn't work on a W^X system. I was just pointing out that one of the most widely used JIT software uses WX pages.

What OSes prohibit that? Linux doesn't (well, I think it can with SeLinux maybe?). OpenBSD might?

One way I’ve seen (eg, searching by zip code) is to encrypt all possible buckets you would search by (prefixes/suffixes) using a different (search) key, then encrypting the relationship foreign keys. Then the application searches for the encrypted values and decrypts the foreign keys.

Because you're incrementing server side data, not local.

Which doesn't matter for trivial counter examples but the same technique is something I've used (not with ludic, but with HTMX) to trigger actions in physical space.
>But you're going to use none of those skills here.

FAANGs want the top .1% of developers, they don't necessarily need them for most roles. But the point is to hire developers that you could put into any role in the company within reason and have them be successful. 99% of development work at a FAANG is pretty unexceptional and doesn't require exceptional developers. They hire for that exceptional 1%.
Intention becomes victim to reality easily, often with no input.

I haven't read the post yet, but I feel like expecting a perfectly well-defined model is kind of in bad faith. Defense in depth is established, FDE is one tool among many.

By focusing on the hacker we forget about the person who may get the equipment downstream; procedures/processes fail, and so on.

It's preparing for the unknowns. Sounds like paranoia? That's the job! Defending against human nature - malice, forgetfulness, etc.

I guess I'll close with this: you're the only one who can make your security assessment. What's important, what's at risk, and so on. It's trade-offs all the way down.
It's not, I found it interesting only
my problem with this is that timing

this comes in a time, when political correctness is considered woke and bad, this comes in a time where the right wing is gaining momentum of strength

"diversity not required" is not an innocent statement

this is not a move to the center, this is a move to the right (alt right)

the right move would have been to define and explain diversity, not exclude it , diversity is not just in race , diversity is freedom

Warts are overall very responsive to placebos.

My M.D. father, family practice in the army, later a pathologist, would do what he had learned from other doctors: Put some dye in toothpaste, put it on the wart(s), bandage it, talk about what a miracle cure it was etc. He said it worked the few times he tried it.
Even people who _know_ that often seem to have difficulty intuitively believing it, is the trouble; it's very good at _appearing_ to be intelligent, good enough that even people who should know better sometimes think that the correctness problems are just a case of "need more GPUs", rather than insoluble.
I know little of U.S. foreign policy, but here's my unoriginal take. Those conflicts the U.S. engage in are the test beds for its military industry. Wheels need to spin and shrinking the industry is not an option. What's at stake is deterrence, thus yes survival, and I think it works quite well for them. In regards to "fraud".. you mean corruption.. or defunct machinery?.. in the former case I'd say it's a bonus for standing by.

Thanks for standing by.. :)

Most of the people I know moved farther away from their job to have more property or a larger home. Or they moved from a more populated region to a less populated region, which in general also means longer distances.
This does seem like a vexing problem, especially when interviews are conducted remotely.

I wonder if either of the following could be cost-effective:

(a) Fly the candidate to a company office, where their compute usage could be casually monitored by an employee.

(b) Use high-quality proctoring services that are nearby to the candidate. E.g., give them 1-2 days in a coworking space, and hire a proctor to verify that thy're not egregiously using tools like ChatGPT.

Or alternatively, would it suffice to just have a long conversation with the candidate about their solution? E.g. what design trade-offs they considered, or how might they adapt their solution to certain changes in the requirements.
> “People can’t find homes, they’re very expensive. We also have an aging population … so there’s less and less people who are electricians, plumbers, or builders,” Habib Dagher, the executive director of the University of Maine’s Advanced Structures and Composites Center (ASCC), told CNN via video call.

Presumably this thing doesn't print pipes or electrical wires, so it seems like there's still a need to address those issues.
Wouldn't it be even worse "discrimination" to steer that demographic towards cheaper schools? Implying they're not good enough for the expensive places?

Isn't the discrimination of other identifiable demographics and marketing to them intrinsically Racist and Wrong?

An intruder gains access to an API box, and could try to read sensitive data from a DB. But the interesting fields are encrypted, and the key is somewhere in RAM. Not impossible to exfiltrate, but takes much longer time and more skill, thus cannot be made an unattended malware payload. Also, a key for one customer won't give access to data of other customers, even if the common database access credentials are obtained.

Two questions keep lingering in my mind:

- Who will benefit the most from very cheap EV transportation as the short-to-medium term commoditization of the industry moves at full speed ahead?

- How sustainable will this push to EV be in the long-run if integral battery parts (and rare earth metals) become more precious and expensive through time?
This on its own may or may not be a good thing, but remember to keep it in context:

Our country has had a centuries-long problem with racism, sexism, homophobia, and classism keeping large numbers of people from accessing the mainstream of American life. We have tried to create a variety of often imperfect tools to combat this situation and create a more equitable country — something right-wingers in general and the Republican Party specifically in the last couple of generations have worked hard to tear down. Lately they've been getting extra aggressive and, sadly, successful at it.

So, again, this action on its own may or may not be a good thing. But we need to make sure not to let the bigots in our country return us back to the very broken situation of thirty, fifty, a hundred years ago.
Agreed; we looked into building one, and the actual construction wouldn't have been the problem - getting permits, paying to have surveys done, and drawing up architectural drawings and such would have already been pretty expensive - and that's the bare minimum required to even get an answer from our city as to whether we can plop one down.
The republic of Venice used Lira as a coin. Doge just means chief magistrate of Venice, and the root of the word (Dux) is the same as for "Duce", the title Mussolini gave himself.
Have a product good enough that users want to talk about, nothing more nothing less.
Yeah. I guess you could say that the focus shifted from Windows the OS being the product to the user also becoming the product. Of course, the users never signed up for this.

I'm not sure how to prevent these kind of shenanigans, but it simply comes back to sweet adtech dollars I think. The industry is so huge and pervasive now, that regulating it back into submission is going to be very difficult. 10 years ago, regulation could've been passed that simply prevented adtech from ever becoming as normalized and intrusive as it is these days. Doing it now will cause a massive hit to the valuation of the industry, and these kind of moves tend to be unpopular. Who is going to pull off a campaign that erases hundreds of billions of dollars from the US stock market (and thus people's pensions)?
What to Know About 'Open Banking,' Coming Soon in the U.S.
I was referred to this company through a past colleague that was currently working there so it's possible they didn't want to bum out this person, but I actually don't think that was that - they looked genuinely surprised and a bit shocked when I wanted to stop which I can understand, it's not something that happens often at all. I think they just felt it was 'wrong' for an interview to be stopped short by the candidate and tried to rectify the situation.
Everyone thinks they are google, if you are like 90% of tech companies and have a crud app, maybe a couple mobile apps and a few backend systems and admin tools, a radical idea is to involve your engineers in the interview design process and tailor your interview to the actual job they will actually be doing. Front end engineer and your stack is react? Pair with them on fixing a UI bug, backend engineer in rails, pair with them on a adding a basic endpoint. You get the point. If an engineer pairs for 30 min with someone I can pretty much guarantee they will have a strong sense of how they work and whether they know their stuff. I really don’t know why we treat this like it is some impossible task to determine if someone can do the job, just try doing the fucking job.

I wonder how seamless the transition is— the setting depicted looks like a commuter rail setup where I would imagine it's fairly lengthy runs of powered vs unpowered.

Waterloo Region built an urban light rail [1] system ten years ago and overall I'm a huge fan of it, but the snarl of wires required at each intersection to make the overhead lines turn a corner is unfortunate. It would be neat if you could have the power only on straight runs and have frequent brief interruptions.

With such commute time wouldn't rather work arrangements like 4 times a week 10 hours (or even 3 times a week 13-14 hours) make sense as an alternative to 5 times a week 8 hours?
