> As much as it is true that inequality is higher than it should be I just spent time with a friend who is working two jobs during the pandemic and cannot afford to live on their own in our relatively low cost of living…
I hope everyone realizes this is code for "police can rape sex workers without repercussions". Which is largely already the case, but this would make the bar that much higher for any discipline
Police unions have no solidarity with workers. They're groups that exist only to protect themselves, and they're happy to suppress strikes when it serves them. It's facile to consider them as part of labour unions.…
From experience, work at these companies five years ago, get options, don't leave even though it's awful
If your employment was entirely piece-work driven by "the algorithm", which is completely opaque and subject to change at any time, what other recourse do you have? They're basically trying to reverse engineer the…
As in, medical doctors who have done brain surgery? Or random dudes who like to inject RFID chips into their hand to pay for coffee
In my experience a startup of a certain size is founders and sales doing razzle-dazzle, "deeply technical people" jerking off to the latest fad, and no customers.
Those are the only two Level 7 nuclear events (the highest severity) to occur in history so I think it makes sense to group them together.
The kind of software I'm talking about should be thrown away after one or two years. Long-term you figure out what works and what the pain points are and you Ship of Theseus away all the bad shit. > And yes, that…
Relying on a client not being able to guess a random number is also important for Diffe-Hellman and like, all private key generation AFAIK. I don't think anything says private keys are security by obscurity because they…
I've worked with people like this - they're usually very dogmatic and won't defer to the status quo. This can be useful because they'll find low-hanging fruit like this that everyone else just accepts. Long-term I find…
Instead you should push down a single argument which is an untyped key value map which may or may not contain the variables you want?
There's diminishing returns along all those axes, suddenly throwing billions of dollars at a problem doesn't automatically yield a fast, high quality result.
