Hmm, I considered this possibility in a comment, incidentally two hours before yours, below. Let the CA have an ability to revoke certs, I'm not suggesting against that. I'm suggesting a method in addition to it.
Someone realized this a long time ago, and the Linux kernel is already being audited and tested, with regression tests, etc (see the Linux Testing Project). OpenSSH is also generally well regarded because of the same scrutiny.

Someone else made the comment that security can't be an afterthought, so PHP will probably never be auditable, and most people agree it should be dropped in favor of more robust technologies anyway.

The new system is not 'better' than the old system, and is probably significantly worse. While it's true that Welch's advice is no longer valid, it's because the legal, financial, and monetary environment has changed so much since the heydays of GE.

My grandfather retired a millionaire after working as a basic GE accountant for his entire postwar life. So as far as he was concerned, GE treated him well, and it treated his family well enough that my mother still remembers the Christmas parties that the company threw in upstate New York for their genuine human warmth.

When I compare how GE treated my grandfather versus how my father was treated by the companies that he worked for (taking the ambitious, go-getter advice), I am struck by how poorly he was served by both that and the overall cultural structure of the United States. My grandfather survived a Nazi prison camp for the US Government, and his weeks of eating grass soup paid off.

So to people saying that Welch's advice was psychopathic bullshit, I say sucks to you. Grandpa worked 9-5 for Jack, was not a particularly ambitious man, and came out way ahead in return for his loyalty. While surely this did not work for everyone, it did for enough of the people for stories like this to be common.

My perspective is entirely different -- because the US no longer rewards loyalty in either the public or private spheres. It is in fact punished, as this writer notes. How exactly can you build a company that lasts for longer than a relative eyeblink when every person is looking out for #1, and expects to be stabbed in the ass by everyone around them?

LinkedIn is a pain in the ass. Propagandizing for yourself to eke out a good living and career hopping all over the country is a pain in the ass. Both activities are tangential to producing profitable work over a long period of time. Every jackass who wants to get a VP position has to be a hot air spewing 'thought leader' now. This is all wasteful activity that defeats the entire economic purpose of firms.

The modern cynicism is corrosive to our long term prospects as a country, even if it is correct individual advice for the current environment. It will not survive, because this country will not survive as a single entity given such broken incentives and cultural mores.
If he's already aware of the idea that being fat and pasty is bad for him, he probably doesn't need people on HN telling him that.

I used to be fat. I knew it was unhealthy. It was incredibly obnoxious and, frankly, unhealthy, to hear people tell me that I needed to get healthy like I didn't know better. What I needed was to get away from poisonous relationships (I eat to cope with sadness) and hellhole suburbs that make it impossible to walk or cycle anywhere. Moving to the city and going out more instead of keeping a freezer full of crap made a world of difference. The assumption that a stranger on HN knows more about health than he does is insulting and counterproductive.
$> some_command --username myusername --password mypassword

This comes up fairly often with poorly designed CLI's. Wiping your bash history after running the command isn't an unreasaonble hack.

Edit/Addendum: Although there are other (perhaps better) ways to achieve the same effect, the main point is that doing a "history -c" should be considered no more suspicious than e.g. closing a document to clear your "undo" history.
Woah, looking into that now. Thanks!

I've had a lot of terrible luck. Some of it was no one's fault, most of it was not my fault. I'll probably be a lot more successful now that I have my shit together. But when things go bad for you, you learn what people really are in a way that the ones with charmed lives never really do.

I suppose I'm lucky insofar as I had my bad luck in my 20s, when it was easier to recover than in one's 50s.

Much knowledge can only be gained through misery and suffering. Since humans are mostly defective, it's rare that a person who hasn't suffered, been betrayed, etc. knows how people actually work.

Additionally, understanding how human organizations work is no substitute for real-time footwork. Ideally, one wants both. I have a wealth of the first (and, unlike Welch, I'm willing to share what I know) but (unlike your garden variety corporate psychopath) I'm not good enough at reading people to develop that "snake sense" for others' weaknesses. In the field, that's also very valuable, and it's something I never developed.

If it's a good investment in her career she should just go get a loan. Alternatively, if she has a passion for programming and the skills you say she does she can take 12 weeks of her own time and learn to be an entry-level iOS developer for a lot less than $12k.

Begging is unseemly, and the whole "you can be a programmer in 3 months just give me $12k" thing is also kind of uncool.

"if you're really good at something, it's pretty easy to get paid (a lot) for it."

This is only true in technology and because of the current market in tech labor and skills (and powerful people are working hard to change that).

It's not true for the musician, or many other passions where the reward has to be the work itself because it's hard to make any kind of living at it.

Easier access to education? $12k for 3 months is not easier access to education. That's just silly.

Start with Paul Hegarty's iOS class on iTunes U, it's free and it's terrific. Do all the assignments (if you get stuck you can find other people who have done them and see what they did but I really recommend doing it yourself.) Sign up for NSScreencast.com and watch 1 or 2 a day, taking notes. Go read as much Ray Wenderlich stuff as you can that's not dated (some of the stuff on his site's kinda old, but no matter.) Then build an app and put it in the app store, it can be lame but you have built so many practice ones it's good to actually get something in the App Store. Go read some stuff at objc.io, some stack overflow, whatever.

You are now an entry-level iOS developer. I just saved you $12,000 and you don't have to beg strangers on the internet for donations. Seriously, $12,000? I guess it's true: the best way to get rich in a gold rush/bubble is selling pickaxes. There are enough great resources out there that you are silly if you do this.
That's nothing new for Penrose, he wrote about it in Emperor's New Mind. His whole argument is based on noncomputability, and he points out in the book that ordinary quantum computers can't do the noncomputable.

And of course if he were right and we did figure out the physics of it, there'd be nothing to prevent us from building hardware that uses the same physics.
Linux and Android together as one?
For a while, I have had this idea of combining Android and Linux together. I have not started on any development for this operating system because I have a couple thoughts blocking my process. A) is there even a demand or need for it? and B) is it even possible? Currently, I am not very skillful at programming but the purpose of this post is to gather your input and decide what to do from there. I would love anyone's feedback on the matter in the comments or sending me an email at jessephilipwalling@gmail.com
OpenSSL is one of those codebases that isn't so much measured in WTFs per minute as minutes to CANNOT UNSEE.

However, for practical use everything else seems to be worse (with the possible exception of PolarSSL, which is sadly probably screwed politically by its licensing).

So, yeah, it's software, and therefore hateful. And I'm infinitely grateful to the developers anyway because, well, it exists, and damned if I have the time, motivation or competency to do any better.

The asshattery is, I agree, understandable. But it's still asshattery.

The state prosecution was initiated based on a signed complaint by the same federal agent, McSwain, who led the investigation of the failed federal prosecution.

Documentation is in some ways harder to fix than code; you can fix what the code does, but documenting the intent can only be done by the author or someone involved in the original design.
I've wondered about this. Doesn't your non-disclosure and nob compete contract with your employees conflict with your organization's "distribution" of open source code to the employees? They should be able to do WHATEVER THEY WANT with it under the license. Or does GPL somehow handle "internally" vs "externally"?
I agree. All the more reason then to try to release things like these documentaries in a more general format as well; alternatively just in the more general format with an adaptation layer to support the Rift.

What's bizarre is that it's easier to create a .NET program that runs on every supported version of Windows without having to worry about installing the prerequisites.

Simply compile to .NET 3.0. You can do this even on Visual Studio 2013. The resulting program will run on Windows Vista and Windows 7 without any install. It will also run on Windows 8 and 8.1, which bundle .NET 4, because Windows will automatically install .NET 3.5 when your program attempts to run.

This scenario doesn't work for Visual C++ programs. Each new version of Visual C++ ships with a new runtime library, and it's neither bundled nor automatically installed by Windows.

In other words, .NET executables are more portable than Visual C++ executables! Talk about bizarre.
Amazing how naive in some regards a very smart person can be. You don't send yourself source code, and you definitely don't talk to police without a lawyer, or invite them into your house.

As I understand it, the toxicity is caused by the implementation of the LNP delivery system, rather than a factor inherent to LNP delivery in general. As there are LNP systems that have proven to effectively deliver to target.

Basically, this LNP delivery system is for encapsulating a desired portion of RNA within a 'shell'[+], so that it may be delivered to a biological target.

The shell is necessary because siRNA is anionic and hydrophilic (negatively charged and water loving/binding.) Which makes it difficult to deliver to targets. It is also unstable in serum (component of blood) and can have unintended side effects if delivered to the wrong target.

There have been attempts to engineer custom siRNA directly. These attempts have resulted in siRNA that cause fewer unintended side effects and have higher stability. However, this method still requires high dosage in vivo and the effects are limited to the liver.

The more promising approach involves wrapping the siRNA in a lipid 'shell'. The 'shell' is inserted into the biological system and travels through the bloodstream to the target area.

The two underlying causes of toxicity (in some LNP delivery implementations) seem to be: the charge of the LNP system and the 'dosage' of the LNP delivery system.

Recent research has shown that it is possible to engineer these 'shells' in such a fashion that they can carry the siRNA safely to target, mitigate the undesirable surface charge, and require relatively low dosage.

Specifically, they have developed ionizable cationic lipids with pKa below 7 to encapsulate the 'package' at a low pH, while maintaining a relatively neutral surface charge at physiological pH. Also, the delivery 'package' itself is made much smaller.

([+] Lipid Nanoparticle delivery is a means of biological/in-solution transport for small matter in general, in this case it is specifically a means of delivering small interface RNA, siRNA, within a biological system.)

Disclaimer: I'm not an expert, but I do have experience in a somewhat related field. This is a high level explanation and it's possible that my explanation handwaves or is mistaken in some aspect.

That's an interesting observation. I don't agree with it though. You suggest that one should consume information up to one's limits. When then does one create information? Even if that information already exists - quoting Westheimer, 'A couple of months in the laboratory can frequently save a couple of hours in the library.' - the process of creating the knowledge is good practice for when one needs to create new knowledge, and for evaluating the validity of existing knowledge.

I do think your second sentence is apropos, but in a different way than you intended. Corn syrup, while calorie rich, provides neither protein nor necessary vitamins and minerals. For that matter, reading summaries is often information poor, compared to the underlying material.

> Terrible fucking idea. Executives don't see a young grunt trying to work on the big picture as "initiative". (I learned this at Google when I pointed to a superior G+ Games strategy.) They see it as a challenge to their turf. They hit back hard, and they have all the power. It doesn't end well.

You really need to know your manager. Some are very turf conscious like your G+ games person, but many aren't.

Also there is a difference between a new employee going above and beyond on an assignment and a new employee thinking they already know enough to radically change a product's strategy. There are a lot of super smart new employees who think smarts alone makes them qualified to jump into a new job and instantly know better than the people who have been working it for years.
