>NOT daily updates

This was an exaggeration that I did not think would be taken literally. We had updates as the case progressed. I would guess about once a month. These updates were on the corporate intranet home page which generally contained about 5 links to 'external news' or something.

>He WAS absolutely trying to steal code. Goldman high-frequency code isn't great...

You have written this in a weird way. I agree he was trying to steal code. The quality of what he stole is not relevant. The way you have written this, it could be read: "He tried to steal high-frequency code". This is very much debatable. I could easily argue that Log4J is part of Goldman's high-frequency code.

He did try to cover his tracks. What he did was wrong and he knew at the time it was wrong. Six years later, does the punishment fit the crime?

>He wasn't planning on selling it. He was planning on taking it to Teza

Yes. This is the interesting point. He wasn't planning on selling it because there is no market for it. By this, I mean that there is no place he could list the code for purchase because:

1. It would be illegal and other companies frown on that kind of thing (at least on paper).

2. The code would not be worth much without an understanding of what it does in the wider ecosystem.

Point two is key. Sergey understood the code. He was uploading it to help him remember the work he had done at Goldman's. There is very much a market for, "I did XYZ at Goldman's, I can do it for you too." I have no doubt that he would have been able to do it again without the source code, but he wanted his 'notes'.

GS didn't want him to apply his trade at another firm. Hence the 'vindictive employer' remark.

How long before another developer gets harassed by Goldman's because they printed off some technical documentation before leaving? What if the documentation is printed a month before leaving? ...a year? ...where is the line, exactly?
That question is both posted and answered in the linked thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/3cbo4m/we_ap...
It's been some years since I last used it, but some of the features are:

1) a repository of common (Chinese) software that you can install directly;

2) an alternative windows-update service that seems to work faster than windows's own;

3) a "janitor" tool, for inspecting and disabling auto-boot software, removing software otherwise tricky to remove, and removing temporary files;

4) a driver searching and matching tool that works much better than windows's own, which never worked for me.

I was a bit emotional in my last comment, since honestly, there has been some decent work that went into this software. They also started to integrate free antivirus software at some point, but I have heard a lot of bad things about it.

However, Qihoo 360 is notorious for spying on the user (there are some hard evidences), offering bogus functionality (placebo "optimizations"), taking advantage of the user in their "promotions" of other products from the company (a big, green, "install 360 browser now" button vs. a little, grey "no"), and cooperating with the authority on Internet censorship. It has become very unpopular among the tech-savvy people in China.

It's not treating everyone equally, which is why it is cognitive dissonance on full display. All of the religious arguments against gay marriage are fine and dandy for marriage within, and as defined by, that religion, but once they are extended to civil matters their arguments fall to pieces. The GP is arguing for this split/dual nature of "equality." To paraphrase: "I want to be free to criticize and make illegal the lifestyle choices of others, but I myself want to be free from repercussion and public criticism."

Good thing saner minds have prevailed on the particular topic of gay marriage in the US. Also, I would love to see any hard evidence there is, that someone making lucid and noninflammatory arguments against legalizing civil gay marriages was actually fired from any job.
You got it: It flew in 1988 and they had some plans for other computerized launches.

Why hasn’t the board of directors that governs Reddit taken action yet? They need to hire a new CEO ASAP before the site becomes another Digg and people leave.
It's the price that's paid to have a site that encourages anonymity. You can't deny that there are benefits to said anonymity at the same time though.
Haha your point is obviously valid. Without outing my friend, I can't prove it, so I hope you'll believe me.

What's so interesting? They have a default value, most likely for testing.

I find it very hard to believe anyone thinks "child_porn.avi" is a compelling filename for child pornography. I'd imagine they'd be more like "<age> <gender> <explicit act>.mp4".
well it certainly changes. presupposing that change to be "shit" is of course bigotry.
Maybe using Fourier/wavelet/whatsoever transform would be the way to go, just like in digital watermarking techniques. Both high capacity and robustness would seem easier to achieve.
She's not very likable. You don't see down voting like this for Alexis, Yishan or, elsewhere, PG and SamA. She still speaks more in MBA-ease like "providing tools" and "listening to users" and "communicated poorly", etc.

And the person fired was by most accounts a well-liked, very visible, performing employee. Dismissing someone like that with very little care was horrific management.

Edit: I don't know why I included Alexis since he also comes off pretty smug and user-hostile (e.g. "popcorn time").
Inertia. You have a ton of one-off specialized programs running batch operations, settling transactions, extracting reports, and generating output that will be the input of a slew of other similar applications.

All of that is densely packed business logic with very little other stuff. It'd be painstaking to convert to more modern paradigm, without dropping a single feature on the floor. Convert all the existing data and shim all the interfaces as you convert piece by piece.

Importantly, the whole effort has no intrinsic business value, is unbounded in scope, risky and tends to paralyze the kind of on-going small maintenance that kept the system current with changes in practice, accounting rules, tax law, HR processes, etc.

Finally, Gary and Sue who were the last ones who actually knew all the pieces of the stacks and how they fit retired in '97 and '03.

I would buy it immediately if it wasn't for the lack of a graphical schema designer like MySQL Workbench (https://www.mysql.com/common/images/products/MySQL_Workbench...)

That would be a huge thing, considering that there is not a valid tool that has it for pg yet. Maybe Navicat has it, but the price is quite high IMO (~$200).

DB/2 is used quite extensively. But a lot of things are still flat files. On System I you can access DB/2 databases as if it were flat files as well. Not actually useful if you ask me but I suppose useful when the developers didn't know SQL. I'm on my phone so explaining how it works is a hassle.

A lot of this conversation assumes we all know what the role of Reddit's CEO should be. But we probably don't: the title means radically different things in different organizations.

It seems from easily available evidence that Reddit's core business challenge was taking a runaway successful online community and reliably monetizing it. If the CEO role at Reddit was primarily responsible for dealing with that problem, it's not surprising that the kind of person who filled it might not be congenial to message board nerds. The message board nerd who was also a crack shot at driving revenue growth is a bit of a unicorn.

The knee-jerk response to this obvious point is that someone brought in to monetize a community could easily damage it by being tone-deaf or compromising it in pursuit of profit. But most of the things Reddit Inc did to damage its community predate Pao, often by many years.

This is the stuff I think about when people point out that Pao was a terrible CEO for Reddit Inc because she didn't know how to send a private message.
This is an excellent article, but might I suggest a (2012) in the title?

Of course they are allowed to. But if it's a bad decision or they handle it poorly, that is perfectly legitimate grounds for criticism.
This will be such a lifesaver. On-prem is the #1 request we have from larger companies, and we've been offered a good amount of money for it. I always say no, but if it's as easy deploying to Heroku, it'll be a no brainer.

I think you raise a few good issues but I'd like to poke, lightly, at the idea that the only information advantage available to hedge funds is "insider" information. Certainly some successful firms built their track record with illegal insider trading that but that's not the whole story.

They have better access to research, they have better access to the analysts whose opinions help drive public understanding of the company, they have better access to management to ask clarifying questions on areas of concern. They spend every day steeped in the facts, perceptions, and research that are relevant to investing. In short, they have a massive information advantage over a casual investor or day-trader. This does not, necessarily, mean they're trading on "insider information."

Finally, just to clarify, insider trading is often misunderstood. A violation depends on meeting all of the following criteria:

1) The information is material.
2) The information is non-public.
3) There was a breach of duty in sharing or trading on the information.

As an oversimplification: if Joe overhears a conversation between the CFO of a Fortune500 company and his boss talking about losing a major contract... only the first two criteria are satisfied and Joe can buy/trade without fear of prosecution.

I dunno, she admits they broke promises and promise to do better this time.

Anyone who has been in that relationship knows it's entirely typical. They could change, but getting your hopes up is asking to get hurt again.

Also: they didn't pull the curtain back at all, so I still find it to be a bland corporate statement.
> The reason hedge funds are falling out of favor is more to do with a surfeit of crappy funds ...

Suppose as a matter of self reflection, I determine that I don't have whatever intrinsic ability + learned skill + ??? is needed to pick securities such that will consistently outperform passive investing strategies. Does that necessarily imply that I don't have the ability to pick an active fund from among the available funds that will outperform (given a certain goal)? Or is it a different skill set?

Note I'm not asking you to tell me how to go about doing that, I can get ten answers from ten different people. What am asking is there conceptually a talent/skill that would allow me to do that, and should I have any reason to think I've got it?
To be clear, I meant the current unionized group of mods who staged the major sub strike in that statement. I'm not suggesting there shouldn't be moderators.

No, you can't.

The MIT license explicitly applies to those who obtain a copy of the code, not those who distribute it (although you are explicitly granted the right to distribute the code if you do obtain a copy of the code).

It also requires that all copies or substantial portions of the software maintain the copyright notice and the license text. If Goldman is just ripping off copyright notices and MIT licenses and slapping on their own copyright notice and license (or lack, thereof), they are doing it wrong. Way wrong (would not surprise anyone though).

This is the first thing I've seen from Ellen Pao that looks like a step in the right direction. There area few challenges she faces at reddit that I don't envy. It is an unfortunate consequence of her lawsuit that she gained enough notoriety to be disliked by a portion of the male cohort of reddit. She is now in the awkward position of both trying to address real problems with the site that have gone unaddressed for a long time and mitigating the damage that her personal brand is causing by being associated with the site.

Regardless of my personal opinions about her lawsuit it's really unfortunate that the simple act of bringing the lawsuit has bled so much into her interactions with the reddit community.

If OP believes in the idea, has domain expertise in it, and has some validation, why not pursue it? Everything comes with risk.

well, the harassment standard is worded in such a way that's it's purely subjective, so I predict the continuation of inconsistent application of the policy.

They are cut of the same cloth as people like Viktor Bout. As a direct result of their actions, innocent people will be tortured and executed. Their technical skill is irrelevant. Or rather, you could consider it an aggravating circumstance: people of this class have a myriad of ways of earning a living, they deliberately chose this course of action.

They shouldn't be protesting of their innocence on Twitter, they should be wearing prison jumpsuits while awaiting sentencing.
Well, yeah, I jumped in to defend the idea that the word "the" counts as an adjective. It seems vaguely possible that my argument is not backed by much besides bluster. (And of course the downvotes are my just reward.)

To the extent I'm arguing something non-disingenuous, it's just that language is best analyzed with a bit of a fuzzy lens, and words don't fit into neat boxes.

Take your claim that "hiking" is a noun: To me, it analyzes as an inflection of a verb ("hike") that can be used to indicate an action ("I was hiking"), the performer or target of an action ("I don't hate hiking, hiking hates me") or as a modifier for something else ("those crummy old worn-out tan leather gusseted hiking boots").

On what basis do you say that it is a noun? Specifically, when looking at the list "crummy old worn-out tan leather gusseted hiking", with modifiers lined up in order of significance, what about the word "hiking" jumps out at you as plainly different in use or meaning? "The boots aren't hiking, they're for hiking"? Clearly-- in this phrase, the word "hiking" means the boots are for hiking!

To me, the most intellectually honest thing is to see compound nouns as a sort of epicycle-style theory to explain why words in our non-modifier class are actually used as modifiers all the time, just according to a subtly different set of rules than applies to the modifier class. I don't think there's anything really wrong with that, since it explains things well enough and we might never have something like universal gravitation to set the record straight.

What I'm saying is, I don't think I have a problem.

Except, of course, when the "rules of grammar" are used as a proxy to cast minorities and lower-class people as unintelligent. That, I have a problem with, and it's quite a popular pastime in the English-speaking world. That's why I think it's important to think scientifically about the extent to which grammar is, and is not, a real thing. (Including, sometimes, hypothesizing things that don't make sense, just to see what happens.)

As another commenter mentions, MIT used MIT/GNU Scheme [1] for the introduction to CS class 6.001, so if you're following SICP, this is probably the least-friction distribution of Scheme to be using (hints: use rlwrap, or use scheme-mode in emacs, or figure out how to use its built-in scheme-based emacs clone "edwin").

MIT ran(/runs?) a one-month short course covering material from 6.001, and they used PLT Scheme when I took it (now Racket). I seem to remember needing to go into one of the rnrs language modes to get things like mutable cons cells. (How impure.) From what I understand, MIT Scheme is much more in the Maclisp tradition, vs. Racket being more from programming language theory (though both are firmly rooted in the Scheme standard), which reflects in their extensions to the core language.

Nowadays, there is no equivalent to 6.001 at MIT, except maybe 6.945 can substitute. They have a survey course sequence 6.01/6.02 which covers EECS in general, using Python when programming is needed. As a challenge exercise you can make an interpreter for a language, though that's not very metacircular.
