that assumes you have the same desk looking at the same code in 3 years. otherwise writing code however you like may have its benefits. including giving you less other-humanly-end-points to have to consider at work. but this attitude may al

Hmm... seems like everyone is writing books on cyber war these days. Maybe I missed the boat. In any case, pulling back the cob webs I do remember there being releases post-stuxnet that indicated there was a c&c virus first. Which is I

This is a constant sentiment I hear over and over. If there is a company that wishes to change this situation they would probably have to take the question of "ethics" completely out of HR's hands and into it's own depar

What the article misses are two important points. 1. Berlin politics is less hyper-media based One of the benefit of Berlin isn't added liberty but a less hyper-media based political environment. One can see this in how the various pol

the claims are very misleading and unclear. almost everything returns nothing in google instant. try "horse", "house", "mitch". All return no instant results for me. Perhaps I am missing something but this arti

i don't think the author said what you think but, regardless, consider if the extreme isolation created by the demographic bias of the work environment did not itself create the desire for the opposite.

On the broader question of "diversity", I agree, but would add to this a contemplation of if one extreme requires the other. maybe the answer is an obvious "yes" but does the extreme isolation of one group increase the w

I understand your point. But I don't think the author was arguing just for a different form of homeogeny. But regardless, even if that were the case one has to put themselves in the authors shoes. [Statement A] Having lived in environm

White male engineer here. The isolation described by the author is felt by many, myself included. Obviously the issue is not a problem with my race or sex but one still closely tied to a lack of diversity in these environments. I don't

So basically this sounds like it's only for "bro's". Or is that only how it sounds but it is indeed intended for all?

I appreciate HN most for insights or debates on non-technical issues. So I wouldn't flag for it being OT. You may flag however for it getting too controversial. However, this will just a continued reality for anything in relation to Is

I appreciate this response. You have brought us to the chicken and egg situation. I do believe Israel has reason to respond to artillery. I will also admit that Israel does not have the leverage South Korea does or EU/US do in the exam

To put things into perspective, a couple years ago North Korea sunk, without provocation, a South Korean ship with some >20 soldiers on board. Yet no war started. This year rebels in eastern Ukraine downed a civilian plane with >200 c

There was and is still no proof that Hamas was responsible for the kidnapping of the two Israeli's teenagers. Netanyahu was quick to blame Hamas in a manner similar to Bush blaming Iraq for some tacit role in 9/11. Shortly after t

"Initiated by a Hamas attack on Israel" Narrow interpretations like these show either an ignorance of events or arrogant bias, and are not that hard to avoid as a writer if you actually try.

The defence will do well leaning more on the incompetence of the prosecution and holding their cards close. In general the system should work where the burden of proof is on the state. What they have done now is show that the configuration

I find it plausible that the NSA, DHS may have assisted. During the same time of the rise of Silkroad we have the NSA in full cowboy mode. A reading of the xkeyscorerules100.txt[1] leak shows this, among other things. Looking to Tor as a po

"dont panic" is ironic. Panic not because access was lost but because the conditions for loss were so trivial.
