You seem to have made up your mind, but for the benefit of others: yes, we use many AWS products and are having a fantastic time of it. AWS services are more reliable, less buggy and have more stable APIs than any of the alternatives. Speci

Not just phishing attacks. Compared to TOTP, U2F uses asymmetric cryptography to avoid using a shared secret design, which strengthens authentication against server-side attacks. Hardware U2F also sequesters the client secret in a dedicated

I find it hard to appreciate art that revels in torture, graphic violence and emotional abuse as an end unto itself. If you want an example of science fiction as high art, personally I would suggest Vernor Vinge (specifically A Fire Upon t

Progress in human genomics is often hidden from view. Eric Green gives some great general pointers, but here are more concrete applications: - NIPT vendors (Natera, Ariosa (Roche), Verinata (Illumina), Sequenom (LabCorp) and others) have su

This is incredibly well written and comprehensive. It's a gentle and friendly introduction to both Lambda and Terraform. What a great job. I'll just point out that if you're using Python, Chalice is excellent and is able to e

There is a 1998 Will Smith movie, "Enemy of the State", which I love - it's somewhere between good and "so bad it's good". It always seemed incredibly fanciful and far-fetched - and then Snowden and Trump happe

I've worked on a number of systems where code was pushed to a staging environment (a persistent functional replica of production where integration tests happen) and sat there for a week before being allowed in production. A staging set

What a strange take. SSBNs remain the ultimate weapon and most naval warfare is geared toward either neutralizing enemy SSBNs or missile attack (a Burke can carry 5+ times more armament than a B-52 and stay on station for months). The Navy

I think you've made my point for me quite well. Especially around cynical behavior.

You're analyzing the effects of Prop 13 at face value, while ignoring its many unintended effects of commercial property undertaxation and rentiering, reduced workforce mobility, concordant increased incentives for NIMBY behavior, effe

Agreed, I'm shocked there aren't any frameworks with a focus on integration between the database ORM/schema, authn/authz, I/O validation, the data model in the client bindings, etc. None of this stuff is new or cont

Prop 13 would be fine if it only applied to retirees over the social security retirement age, and did not pass down the basis to their children.

It's not that hefty once they pitch this improvement to the many wealthy VC-funded companies whose business and data science divisions depend on Python.

Thanks - Mark Shannon is a core committer, right? So hopefully he has standing to get this done. The plan looks very high level at this point, but it looks like Mark is an expert in interpreter VM and JIT technologies. All I can hope for is

I agree with your overall characterization. As someone who works a lot with Python and is very familiar with its package ecosystem, I find the lack of leadership from PSF to be discouraging and upsetting. The past few Python releases have w

I wish Bash had proper support for in-process subshells. I timed my code recently, and a variety of loop constructs was dramatically faster without subshells - but often required crazy contortions to avoid spawning one.

I think what's facile is to discuss the properties of the drug as though the drug itself is representative of the damage that Purdue/Sacklers have done. They bribed physicians at scale to boost the sales of their drug. That's

I think you're referring to the Cognito team. As far as I know, IAM has never had managing user identities outside AWS among its goals. People rarely think about the true purpose and power of IAM and its equivalent services in other pl
