Because they might not be high performers there? There is no such thing as an objective "high performer" in any area.

Personally, the online identity part is the thing I'm the _least_ excited about with Keybase and would actually prefer it without (or, even better, selective disclosure where I can choose to give proofs of identity to users without Key

Unless there's some other factor in place, you probably shouldn't. This is not the case here, though. Stellar has been sitting of huge piles of coins (par for the course these days at least) that they are now distributing.

In general, this is definitely something to watch out for. As far as I understand it, that's not the case here, however. These coins were already in existence held by Stellar, who is now giving them away. I.e. no coins being printed. I

I was actually genuinely curious, I guess ^^ Oh yeah, the inconsistency in which links open in new tabs by default and which you can ctrl-click and not is a bit frustrating in GCP for sure.

Wow, I have the complete opposite experience. Monitoring, metrics graphs and logs are just miles ahead in Google IMO. It's so much easier for getting visibility. Do you really prefer Cloudwatch to Stackdriver? How about having a Lambda

It's just so fragmented. Some parts are actually almost great (Lambda) while others are downright awful. Batch is the worst, and it's been like this for years. As soon as you go over a couple of hundred jobs per day, it becomes un

You could also argue that that is a separate thing from programming. I don't at all mean to be to be snobbish here, just that it's useful to draw the line somewhere between there. Modeling is not programming. Architecture is not r

Anecdotal, but I know a guy working as a senior Engineer at Google with some central server-side components for the Android ecosystem. He had barely heard the word Kubernetes when we last spoke, let alone knew what it was.

Damn, you're right. And the only mention I see on this is announcements from Amnesty[0] and EFF[1], and his own Twitter feed[2]. Zero mentions in national news whatsoever. It seems he's now actually being charged with cybercrime d

How did it work with shared folders prior to this? Has there been an attack vector utilizing symlinks in shared folders, making other users' clients sync files from their drives?

There is no substantial argument here. It builds mostly on anecdata from the author meeting Kaiser and being unimpressed as well as the Ted Cruz campaign dropping CA. Apart from that, we see a reference to a meta-study, where the only actua

Where I come from, we use paper ballots and votes are counted multiple times by different people both on election day and after. And yes, the public is invited to monitor vote counting.

I'm a bit surprised by many of the arguments posted here trying to problematize paper votes. This is how it is done in Sweden - I don't want to imply that it's without issues, but it should illustrate how all of the "iss

What source code files you happen to put declarations and definitions in has nothing to do with functional purity. Think of it this way: An array append function which adds an element to the input array is not purely functional. An array ap

Yes. Just like with generics, you can parametrize them, for example in Idris you have the type `Vect n a`, being a list of type `a` with length `n`. An append function could look like this: app : Vect n a -> Vect m a -> Vect (n +
