No. (This from just reading the comments here).

This is basically just plain gpg+email done via a browser extension. So no protection of metadata (headers), no indexing of body (by upstream provider).

So if you have (potentially sensitive) information in the subject, you can search on that, and on to/from/cc etc -- but not on email body. Only way to achieve that securely, would be to have an encrypted index (that might be stored in an IMAP folder, encrypted) and decrypt and search it locally. At that point you are doing something rather different from what gmail is (currently) doing, however (I believe mailpile does something along those lines).
SEEKING WORK - Remote - Pacific Standard Time

I'm a 3-year iOS developer, who remembers developing for early iOS 4.x builds + iPhone 3.

Currently, I'm working remotely on Pacific Standard Time.

I have resume experience from in lead roles, LivingSocial, an acquired startup, Apple, Microsoft, and Google.

Not very long ago, I published an academic breakdown of UITableView - a popular iOS control - on my employer's tech blog:
https://techblog.livingsocial.com/blog/2013/12/02/lsctablevi...

I also contribute to the tools I use, too! I've made contributions to PonyDebugger, AFNetworking, and SDWebImageCache.

Game On Thoughts on Apple’s entry in to runtime view hierarchy inspection
Trick we used is to go and also buy like 3/8 chipboard and then liquid-nails the melamine to it--that gives it enough stiffness to prop up on things.
Seconded. Get your legal advice from lawyers not from HN (or any other web forum).
We've wall mounted many Ikea Torsby table tops (53 1/8x33 1/2") and really enjoyed the streamlined look and hassle free cleaning. Best whiteboards I've ever used. There's actually a white backing behind the glass so everything is easy to read.

For $80 it's much more affordable than actual whiteboards while clearly outperforming cheaper alternatives.

Is OCaml used anywhere?

I've only met one OCaml programmer in my life, and they were a graduate student and rather strange.
Eve (MDEA) was quite an amazing experience, though (as always) lacking in a certain quality that MDA/MDMA have.

The ones that have similar action (though subjectively don't really come that close) are the aminoindane-class analogues. They're interesting in their own right, too.
Individually they are defensible. In combination, the attempt was full of leaky abstractions that led to violations of the Principle of Least Surprise. In addition, going to a given shop, you never know exactly which subset of all the possible C++ subsets are in use. In that sense, there's no single language called "C++".

But yes, I admit the 'unleashed on junior programmers' was a bit of a cheap shot.

I wonder what's happening on weekends?

Every weekend, the percentage of encrypted outbound mail decreases, but the percentage of encrypted inbound mail increases. If you click on "90 days", you can see that this trend has been going on for quite some time.

Could this be due to the difference between the usage patterns of work email vs. personal email? Or could it be a specific email service provider (or providers) who do something differently during weekends?
I'm not entirely clear on why it's better that sicomail (potentially) has your unencrypted emails, than that google has them?

I've thought about setting up something similar as an incoming mail filter on my imap server; encrypting and signing unencrypted mail to myself -- just to have data at rest encrypted, and as a motivator for myself to use gpg more regularly -- but having a third party do it seems a little silly?

Unlike patents, trademarks are not subject to tests for obviousness or prior art, and unlike copyright there is no concept of a public domain, although generic marks cannot be trademarked eg 'food' or 'clothing' are not trademarkeable terms because they refer to a class of goods. Nor can you trademark for functionality, eg you can't trademark handles on cups or wheels on a bicycle. And there are some specific exceptions like national flags, identities of individuals other than the claimant, or making false claim to a geographical region for agricultural products.

Otherwise, almost anything goes - you can trademark colors, logos, fragrances, and what-all else. The basic requirements are that a mark be distinctive - ie easily identifiable - and that it be used in commerce (at least in the US, because trademark registration authority derives from the Commerce Clause in the Constitution).

This trademark seems to have been properly filed, brought to public notice, and issued. It has no effect on the use of Pi in math books, computer code, discussions like this one, or most other categories, but it does apply to the use of the symbol on athletic/casual clothing. Sucks, but it's legit. Y Combinator could equally trademark the 'Y' logo that appears in the top left corner of HN for use in the context of business development, and someone would write a story along the lines of 'Investor Paul Graham trademarks the letter Y.'
I think this idea of the bullshit jobs, and the implicit removal of them, has corollaries with what was posted here recently: "How to get business ideas - remove steps" [1]

The trouble is, as was pointed out in the article, is that removing steps means removing a person from their source of income and in a lot of cases also their identity and social network. So how do you remove bullshit jobs without causing a massive collective existential threat?

Show HN: Speech.is interop for Namecoin
I'm a core-contributor to Namecoin and the lead developer for Speech.is, an interoperability layer for Namecoin that I have been working on for the past year. While the main goal of the Speech.is website is to provide a scalable interop system that doesn't involve proxies or mirroring content, I was able to backport some of the censorship resistant properties of the Namecoin .bit TLD to regular websites.

Speech.is reimplements DNS lookups within the browser itself. When coupled with emerging WebRTC P2P networks we are able to push all processing to the client side, shielding us from legal liability. The special speech.is#name.bit syntax makes it impossible for governments to selectively censor websites and very difficult for politicians and judges to rationalize their way into blacklisting the entire domain.

The www.speech.is website has the full nitty-gritty, but remember that this is a developer preview!

Declan, nothing but respect for all your writings but he's got to make an account one day and if he's critical but otherwise polite and seems to be willing to concede the point why attack like that? It might be an account created specifically to protect a reputation. As far as I can see his concerns are valid and the answers are to the point. I'd rather see someone be extra critical when it comes to new crypto stuff than too lax.

It's a great concept that deserves to succeed, and building the funding aspect in at the infrastructure level might make a big difference. I also like the deeper ambition o redefining the university - as an outsider to that system I just feel a bit skeptical by default.

I certainly hope that Apple's decision to include a runtime hierarchy inspection tool will wet everyones appetites for the Reveal app.
I think so because Windows XP POS has support until 2019 and businesses still need to develop POS apps for their embedded POS systems. Even if the consumer XP has dropped support the POS version of XP has not yet.

Too many ATMs and POS systems that still run XP, give them until 2019 to switch to Windows 8 POS systems.
Using Sequence Package Analysis to Detect Terrorism and Sedition
Sequence Package Analysis (SPA), a new natural language method that utilizes a corpus of annotated training data comprised of a unique set of feature extractions, may detect early signs of terrorism and sedition. Using an SPA-designed BNF table consisting of sequentially-implicative (as opposed to syntactic) parsing structures, this natural language tool searches social media content and recordings of conversations of suspected terrorists to identify (and measure) collusion, collaboration, affinity with other terror or sedition suspects.
Yes, I'm trying to feel out the necessary work to get Cython and other Cpython modules working by hacking the Python headers to make a plain Cpython C module compile to a micro-python compatible module. It's not clear that there are C modules yet, so maybe there's a lot of work to do, but it just struck me how much both ecosystems can benefit if the headers can indeed be backed so that C modules (and Cython modules) "just work."
> Google is not a privacy company.

Well... they are and they aren't.

Google has a real interest in protecting the privacy of their users from anybody but Google.
But email providers don't need end user cooperation to implement intra-provider encryption, i.e. encryption of intermediate hops before it's finally read. (If you email another gmail user, Google can keep the whole voyage encrypted, and likewise if you email a Yahoo user after they agree to encrypt email between the services.)

Yes, such schemes are leaky, as they allow the attacker to read it at any link between providers that haven't cooperated to set up a secure link. And it probably doesn't change the "expectation of privacy" issue, as the provider will be applying encryption to the plaintext, but it decreases the attack surface without requiring end user action.
Is Swift a step toward an Apple wearable watch?

Still, that aside, really exited about this project.

Disappointed with the secondary support for RSA/DSA (ie: pretty much all existing keys) -- sadly Google never were very good at interop with others :-/

As I understand it, everyone not using this/gmail now have the option of not being able to communicate securely with the people that start using this; or running unsupported versions of GnuPG :-/ (Or trying to explain how to securely generate, export and import RSA/DSA keys into end-to-end -- somewhat defeating the whole usability benefit...)
Which of the two would you be cutting?
Exactly this. The line from Lawrence of Arabia comes to mind: "I am a river to my people." The US equivalents are the mob boss (think of the opening of The Godfather, where Don Corleone hears requests from ordinary citizens) or the political boss dispensing patronage. In both cases, participation in the system of power binds the recipient into the system. Which generally increases the control of the Big Man over a resource stream.
Yes, this is possible through SALTing. It allows objects in the Workspace to be associated with human readable files in the file system, which Git can maintain.
There must be something else of monetary value they receive because that's a full time job. Maybe an expense account?
C++ would be absolutely terrible for social media applications. There, the barrier isn't usually the speed but correctness and maintenance overhead.
I take your point. That doesn't address my point, though, because not all politicians are corrupt.
If they skipped the 13 out of superstition, they should also skip 14, it doesn't bode well in Asia where in some countries, buildings often don't have any floor numbered 4, 13, 14, 24... not that these floors don't physically exist of course, these numbers are just not used.

Dyalog APL is commercial, but they are open-source friendly. I work with and am sponsored by them, and we are actively working to open-source as much as is possible provided that we can continue to support the projects. Similarly, they release software like MiServer, which is a web server in pure APL as open source.
Reminds me of how professor Leonard Susskind closed a talk on his friend Richard Feynman. Instead of trying to honor him with a TED talk, which Feynman would not have enjoyed, we can best honor Feynman by 'getting as much bologna out of our sandwiches as we can.'

I admire people who challenge their own certainty.

'See, I have the advantage of having found out how hard it is to get to really know something, how careful you have to be about checking the experiments, how easy it is to make mistakes and fool yourself,' said Richard Feynman. 'I know what it means to know something and therefore, I see how they get their information and I can't believe that they know it.'

I have been a classroom high school math teacher for the past 5 years. In may spare time I have worked to develop and launch several apps that help students learn and that help teachers teach. I am now looking to move full time into software development, preferably in educational technology, although I would be interested in other areas as well.

I am most comfortable with iOS development; I have some experience with Node.js and am willing to learn other technology stacks.

I have open-sourced ClassCast, a iOS client and Node.js server that lets teachers send URLs to student iPads as push notifications which take students directly to the correct webpage/app. You can see these projects at http://github.com/reesemclean.

Other apps I have developed are available in the app store, including Algebra Tiles: Visualize Math which allows students to see Algebra in a visual way: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/algebra-tiles-visualize-math...
Bollocks. If you can't - at least in broad terms - describe the kind of business/consumer that would benefit from your product, then are you really ready to start selling? And if you can describe them - then surely you can get a rough idea of where they hang out, who they are, etc.

Otherwise you are just throwing darts blindly and hoping they hit.

I think they give you a key by registering for 90 or 180 days to evaluate it and try it out for free. Make a virtual machine in Vitualbox.

I choose Virtualbox because it has a GNU/Linux and OSX version, unlike VirtualPC so you can run virtual machines on GNU/Linux and OSX systems.

Some people like VMWare, others QEMU, and some use what Microsoft has. But Microsoft has these evaluation ISOs for free for a limited time so if one runs out, just reformat and reinstall it in a virtual machine to test it out.

It's definitely an interesting topic. One of the reasons Toyota had a deep tradition of avoiding layoffs was so that people would feel safer helping remove waste from the system.

One way to look at it: idle people with decaying skills and self esteem are just another kind of waste. So if your first step is to eliminate some particular sort of bullshit work, the second step could be to find some non-bullshit way to employ the people who no longer are doing anything.

Thinking broadly, that shouldn't be hard. After all, we could afford to pay people to do bullshit, so we'll be even better off if we pay those people to do something productive. But the current way we account for things often makes it tricky in specific cases.
If Apple and Google dominate, the graph really should show that. Can I propose breaking it down into two graphs: One with Google, Apple and other; and the other graph breaking down the others?

It's a hard problem, but I really think non-linear scales obfuscate more than they clarify for stuff like this. Non-linear scales should be used to eliminate variables not relevant to the analysis. That Google is 10* Samsung is part of, and not extrenuous to, the analysis here.

Here is what I found when I was out selling: The only thing worse than getting a no is getting nothing.

At least with No, you get feedback and that is valuable. The only way you can get to "no" or "yes" is by pushing the customer to give you an answer and people in general are hesitant to be that pushy.

Yet, the big swing in silicon valley is B2B.

The question we should asking ourselves is:

What can we, as software engineers and web developers, do to support our working class?

We need to reduce their debt, reduce their cost of living, and decrease the amount of time they waste dealing with the intricacies of living in modern society. How can we do this?

I'd be interested to see when actual socialists think the Soviet Union stopped being an effective socialist state and started being more of a totalitarian kleptocracy with a veneer of socialist rhetoric as justification.

I was an early Agile person, starting with Extreme Programming in 2000. It blew me away how quickly a revolutionary approach to the work I loved was turned into a bunch of empty labels and pointless rituals that covered up the same old power structure but provided the useful appearance of change. [1] It's definitely made me wonder what early Russian revolutionaries would think of how the Soviet Union turned out.
