Some highlights:

Uniqueness types[1], which are inspired by ownership types and borrowed pointers in the Rust language, and should eventually be able to provide compile-time guarantees that critical program fragments will never allocate. If this was achieved, Idris would potentially be usable for tasks that previously necessitated using either C, C++ or Rust.

Partial evaluation[2], which can also be used to improve performance by specialising type classes and higher order functions. Another use is creating speedy interpreters/EDSLs, with the one in [3] being competitive in speed with Java in spite of only being an interpreter.

Uniqueness types can also be used for safe in-place updates of a datastructure. The following map function, for instance, where UList is a UniqueType, will be compiled to code that updates the list in-place, avoiding allocating a new list:

umap : (a -> b) -> UList a -> UList b

umap f [] = []

umap f (x :: xs) = f x :: umap f xs

That's interesting, because in Australia they're really popular and both EMV and PayPass/PayWave came in at the same time and use the same chip in the card. You can actually see the RFID antenna terminating in the EMV chip in one of my cards which is semi-transparent.

Its also illegal for any major shareholder to sell without filling out SEC Form 3 and SEC Form 4.

This means that anyone who is a major shareholder is forced to publicly announce whenever they are buying, and whenever they are selling.

With Bitcoin, it is basically anonymous whenever the "insiders" are making a move.
I agree. What this woman did was not "reasonably safe". This woman is a hero for the work she did for her community and because of the risks she took to do so. I find this level of bravery amazing as well.

The US should not play world police.

The US properly has jurisdiction in Mexico only when necessary to protect Americans, and we seem to not have crossed that threshhold.
I just read your blogpost about Sage mentioned above, and it made me a little sad (I actually expected it to be optimistic). I think it smells of burnout, and you should perhaps take a break. You certainly deserve it!

It's not your fault that economic resources in human societies are hugely misallocated, and that social progress is always painfully slow.
I like angersock's list since it shows a lot of areas that I would expect a generalist to know. Obviously not exhaustive but it's a pretty good list.

That said you are going about it wrong if you are looking for a linear path to become a generalist. It is more like a giant graph of areas and you start from one you like and branch. The "right" node to start at is what you enjoy the most.

Wait, what? Does Mexico have jurisdiction in the US when necessary to protect Mexicans?
Do you have more information about that record? At a glance it strikes me as surprisingly slow, but maybe I don't understand the ground rules.

Here is some perspective:
Walmart's margins are approx. 3% according to [1]

- most if not all of their income comes from transactions/sales.
- some significant % of their transactions are paid with credit cards.

With those two things in mind, 2% of a retail transaction might mean a lot more than you think.

Do I think it's a good idea? no.

Do I think a WalMart executive walked through the same chain of logic and found an extra billion? probably.

it is nontrivial to reverse debit fraud compared to a chargeback on a credit card.
> You do realize that the Drug Cartels are committing crimes far far worse than tax evasion, right? And there have been no repercussions for them. By suddenly charging them with tax evasion, do you think they'll be stopped?

Let's try to explain this with math. Suppose X amount of drugs has a market price of $100 and of that, $20 is the actual production cost and $80 is the amortized cost of law enforcement occasionally arresting you and seizing your drugs (and the various measures to attempt to prevent that).

Tomorrow we legalize drugs and impose a $60 tax. Joe Farmer in Iowa plants a field full of marijuana and starts selling it for $85 after taxes, keeping a $5 profit after the $20 cost and $60 tax. The drug cartel now has to hit an $85 price point to compete but they need to charge $100 to justify the costs of breaking the law, so they're out of business.

> Well, drug consumers can stop purchasing drugs that you know that involve the cartels. But most people that talk about the "War on Drugs" would rather blame the US drug policies instead, rather than the own up to the fact that they are contributing to the problem.

That is not a reasonable strategy to reduce the power of cartels. Not that I disagree with you. But it's not a reasonable strategy.

> I would also like to point out that legalizing drugs would not solve the problem. The problem is corruption, not the drugs themselves. Look at Miami in the 1970s. It was a war zone, just like Mexico is today. The reason is because you could buy off any cop or government official in the city (check out the documentary "Cocaine Cowboys" for some real news footage from the time).

> If drugs are legalized tomorrow, what do you think would happen? If I were the cartels, I would continue selling my product, this time legal (similar to how companies are outsourcing to China..drug companies will outsource to Mexico). My power would continue or increase, because I could just buy off any cop and/or government official and the violence would continue (ruling by fear).

Can you explain why no cartels have stopped producing illegal drugs, and started producing, say, quinoa, corn, and wheat instead? If legalization would have no effect on their profits, why do they choose to specialize in illegal markets like drugs and gun-running?

Look, after legalization, cartels would suddenly face a huge amount of competition from companies that don't burn large amounts of cash fighting wars, which are generally quite expensive. Ordinary agricultural production is not generally associated with beheadings, torture, and assassinations. This is not because producers of quinoa are inherently virtuous, but because the incentives faced by black market "companies" are extremely atypical.

> Please..just stop the fucking dishonesty and I might support your cause.

I agree that the legalization of MMJ was to some extent a dishonest attempt to get de facto legalization (successfully, I might add). But it is entirely irrational to base your support for a policy on the actions of some proponents of that policy.
Your English seems less rushed than non-native.

The red flags that are going off for me are related to the possibility that what you're seeing is an Ivy League white male discounting you as a foreigner.

Management in large companies doesn't like complainers. Bringing a problem to management when you don't also have a good solution to offer risks you being labeled a complainer.

Going to HR should be a LAST RESORT. HR is not there to help you; it's there to keep management from getting sued.

You need to see if you can work with this guy or not. If he's going to continue to discount what you know while still depending on you, you may need to draw very clear boundaries between your work and his, making him responsible for his own compile errors.

It may just be that he's gotten off on the wrong foot. You may be able to teach him if his head isn't already full of his own importance, or if you are willing to take a secondary role to his "Ivy" leadership. If neither of these things look to be happening, I'd be looking for another job, not going to management with a complaint that effectively says, "This guy thinks he's better than me, but he isn't!" No management wants to have to deal with that kind of complaint, so will start making your life more difficult in small ways.

Your non-native English is going to cause people to underestimate your intelligence in many places in the U.S., however. May work better for you to find a job in a company with a strong international presence, which will be less likely to equate English fluency with intelligence.

>Edit: Per your comment below you recognize that it is enabled automatically on PCs - and this is supported by the documentation provided. The grandma argument doesn't stack up with the fact that OneDrive/SkyDrive is enrolled in PRISM.

The encryption is automatic, hence it makes sense that the backup is forced. Given that many Windows user get confused when their icons are moved, it would be hard to expect them to manage decryption keys. A significant percentage could lose their data. This is still better than earlier versions of personal use Windows where the data wasn't encrypted at all and all one had to do is to connect the hard drive on a different computer. On Professional and Enterprise versions, when you choose to encrypt, the dialog box with the choice does appear, I just tried.

Five years is nowhere near long enough for the entire platform to be replaced with something completely different. Unless, of course, you mean the "OS" and VM that is already in our browsers; but it seems apparent you don't want that OS and VM, you seem to want something very, very different (and different in ways that nobody is really working on, as far as I know).

I'm less critical of JavaScript, but I've also got a much more conservative expectation of how much will change in any five year period. Your estimate assumes more dramatic and rapid change to the web than at any point in its history (except maybe the initial introduction of the graphical browser, or of the release of JavaScript, itself), and an ecosystem with a few billion participants does not and cannot change as fast as one with a few thousand. And, of course, for something to be the way we all do things in five years, somebody would have to be doing it that way today on a small scale.

Please don't kill yourself, despite the fact that your dream definitely is not going to happen the way you've envisioned it. (In its place will be a gradual, but measurable, improvement on nearly every front in the systems we currently work with. It'll probably all turn out alright.)

Do you understand the consequences of your argument?

Every time something like this happens, someone posts a comment to the effect of "should have used Tor" and then someone else posts a comment criticizing that comment as victim blaming.

Now suppose we listen to the latter group and everyone stops making the first comment. The idea that victims can protect themselves, and the mentioning of specific methods by which they can do so, disappears from the discourse. Anyone reading this article because they're in a similar situation to the subject never discovers that information. In what kind of world is that a good thing?

If FoxConn ever assassinated a journalist and posted pictures of said assasination on that journalist's twitter account...I'm pretty sure they would no longer be an Apple supplier.

There are a number of disconcerting realities surrounding companies like Nestle and Apple. None of those come close to the direct violence perpetrated by the Cartels in Mexico and to claim they are even in the same realm is pretty obtuse.

I would be EXTREMELY happy if the levels of abuse perpetrated by mexican cartels were reduced to within an order of magnitude to those perpetrated by FoxConn.
The link is formatted as Markdown, which is designed to be human-readable as well as easily convertible to HTML [1]:

The idea is that a Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it’s been marked up with tags or formatting instructions.

Thus, the use of a Markdown-style link in the present context is not a mistake. Moreover, even if it were, it wouldn't justify your smug and snarky tone, which you would do well to avoid in the future.

Here's something a little out of left field, but worth considering: By adding support for Android apps, Google Chrome has the potential to completely dominate desktop and mobile development.

Using a simple hack [1] it is already possible to write a single Android app that runs on (a) Android tablets; (b) Mac computers; (c) Windows computers; (d) Chrome OS computers; (e) Nexus Player set-top boxes. If Google were to put its full weight behind this strategy then I think it would quickly become the default platform for desktop development and thereby destroy the Windows empire. It might even mean Android apps being developed for what would normally be the domain of web apps.

Just within Mexico? Without changing anything in the US? Not sure. It might not have any effect at all, or it might reduce violence because it diminishes the clashes of the cartels with the Mexican authorities. But, as far as I understand it, the vast majority of the income of the cartels comes from trafficking drugs from Mexico and south america into the U.S. market. So, as long as drugs are both illegal and widely consumed in the U.S, I wouldn't expect the influence of the cartels to diminish significantly.

That said, violence spiked significantly after the Mexican government decided to use the army to combat the drug cartels (10 or so years ago). So maybe if drugs were legal within Mexico and we completely refused to have any part on policing their traffic across the border, we might have a more peaceful situation, albeit still one in which organized crime has a huge influence in politics in most or all of the country's territory. Then again, at this point the cat might be out of the bag regarding the violence... a lot of it involves cartels fighting each other for control of different regions or routes at this point.
> Why are the majority of the comments here blaming the victim?

There were few if any comments here blaming the victim at the time you posted, so I must assume it is the comments discussing proper operational security for one in her position that you are misidentifying as blaming the victim.

It's important that security failures like this be discussed and analyzed so that others who may find themselves in a similar situation can learn from them so as to be able to fight the bad guys without getting killed.

> If you seriously think that lack of cybersecurity is the problem then at least use this to highlight the lack of good easy to use security software

Security software, or lack thereof, is probably not the most important thing in this kind of operation. Physical security is more important, namely making sure the bad guys do not get access to the computer you conduct your social media operations from or that you use for communications with your fellow activists.

Doing any of your activism from your cell phone, such as accessing your social media from it, is very risky. It means that if the bad guys have some reason to detain you unrelated to your activism they might find out your secret.

In many ways, the anti-cartel activists are in a position similar to that of those who are in an underground resistance in a conquered nation, such as the French resistance in WWII. Success in that situation generally involves maintaining a dual life, with the public side being something innocuous and non-threatening to the bad guys, and the private, resistance side kept very separate.

From 32m 50s, one of the most wonderfully pedantic exchanges I've heard:

Q: Did you send this email Mr. Gates, on or about Aug 8, 1987?

A: I don’t remember sending it.

Q: Do you have any doubt that you sent it?

A: No it appears to be an email I sent.

Q: You recognize that this is a document produced from Microsoft’s files, do you not?

A: No.

Q: You don’t?

A: Well how would I know that?

Q: Well, you see the document production numbers down at the bottom?

A: I have no idea what those numbers are.

Q: Do you recognize this as the form in which email has been printed out by Microsoft?

A: I don’t know what that means. All email printed by anyone looks just like this. So the fact that it looks like this doesn’t give me any clue as to who printed it.

Q: Well, let’s begin with that sir. E-mail printed out by other people are not stamped with Microsoft confidential stamps and Microsoft document production numbers. You would agree with that?

A: That has nothing to do with printing out.

Q: Do you understand my question sir?

A: Nope.

Q: Okay. Do you see down at the bottom where there are “confidential” stamps, and a stamp that says “Attorneys only”, document production stamps? Do you see those?

A: I see the stamps. I can’t characterize whether they’re document production stamps. To me they look more like you’d see on a prisoner’s uniform.

Q: You don’t have any knowledge about these stamps, it is your testimony? You don’t know what they are?

A: I’ve never seen a stamp like that. I’ve never used a stamp like that.

Q: Haven’t you seen stamps like that in every single one of the documents that you’ve been shown during this deposition?

A: (To counsel) Can you get me all the exhibits?
