While I agree there is some title tweaking going on, IMO the empathy you speak of needs to go in both directions, especially if you're a smaller organization. It really needs to be, as you say, shared . If shipping shit yesterday is

I think this is downvoted because it's considered slow and/or hacky and having a fair amount of overhead (especially for SSH -- e.g. User and Key management). That being said, I think the explanation is not available because ... p

I think without: 1) Open Source software AND especially 2) significant financial incentives for finding and reporting bugs, it will be business as usual for the foreseeable future.

Though I agree with your points for the most part, let's not forget that the president does have real power to directly affect policy in this country, as well as shape key parts of government, as we are all being constantly reminded of

Anecdotally, I've actually been driving down the road (passenger side), middle of the woods on the way to the beach, putting out a small sysadmin fire while on vacation (from my Android phone). I know, I know - supposed to be on vacati

Also, what about your perception of time? Would it pass the same as it does now? Compress or expand? I think mortality is fundamentally wired into the thought processes of earth bound organisms. Part of that is how one perceives even smalle

Gosh I'd love to talk to this psychoanalyst. I can say as a non-adopter of Facebook (and before that MySpace) from the beginning (despite some immense social pressure) it has simply always been about "privacy" and the desire

The only question I have, in this particular case is: what about the victims of the original app? Are they possibly the subject of re-victimization if the app on their device is compromised further by 3rd parties? Though I completely agree

I like to pose the question subjectively: what would it be like to have my own consciousness suddenly operating within a computer instead of my body, right now ? Would the machine have to simulate my bodily experience to give my mind a fra

I don't understand how a professional in infosec couldn't see the necessity of anonymity in myriad use cases. Overlay networks seem to be the only viable option in many scenarios....?

I loved the part at the end where he talked about the "Doomsday Prep for the Super Rich". I'd read the same article a month or so ago, and his intution on the subject seemed spot on. I think the mindset speaks to exactly the

It seems this would be the question when using CRISPR against any virus. Right now one would have to use gene drive to 'amplify' CRISPR and apply it in a living, adult organism (as I understand it). Perhaps some "similar&quot

Personally, I believe there's some level of "intuition" involved, that perhaps some people are just gifted with naturally. I think these people still have to practice though, to build upon that natural ability. Note that I&#x

I believe this is an easy trap for developers of all skill levels to find themselves in. I imagine the "10x developer" would just be really good at avoiding this kind of thing ... most of the time.

I would say it depends on your position in your place of work, but there are multiple examples of this. I prefer historical ones, say for example NANP (the North American Numbering Plan). I'm not sure what country you're in, but h

This is an important point. I would personally allow it, because I believe the fundamental premise to be true. In my experience, too much time in the "standard work day" is wasted on looking like you're working, at all levels

Yeah brushing form is important, and for some like myself, difficult to get right consistently. I really need an electric toothbrush.

I've recently discovered Amazon's subscription service (shopping for cat litter of all things) and since I'm already paying for Prime as well... why not? I can imagine partly for the reasons you just listed, larger establishe

I think there is also of course the distinction of the known VS unknown person doing something worth connecting to. Lots of people who are doing things that probably are not worth much consideration are simply good at selling themselves a

Right. You have to authorize to some sort of management layer somewhere . In this case at the cloud API level. It's nice that it's not directly "in band" with the rest of your application code in the same physical addre

The short answer is that phone hardware is all over the place .. x86/64 has actually made generic kernels (including Windows) possible by having a slew of very similar machines. You can't expect the same thing from ARM systems yet

I've actually grown extremely bored of programming language debates and yet continue to be fascinated with the act of programming. Each language has something new to offer and also some limitation(s). Why not try them all? I believe

And then we may find ourselves right back at our oldest problem: philosophy - IMO one of the defining traits of our species (which AI must also take on), perhaps trying to decide which to choose from: happiness, immortality, or power?

Perhaps we at Hacker News are prone to acceptance of the idea that our own skill sets are the ones that will remain when automation burns everyone else's. Personally, I doubt it. If I'm being honest with myself, I'd have to s

I've actually run mitmproxy on my phone in a chroot before, somehow (several years ago now). However, I can't remember if it was a rooted phone or not, sorry. Suffice to say it's perfectly possible, most phones are plenty pow

Well, whatever he's calling himself, I think the article is pretty cool. NFC is a protocol I'm interested in but know nothing about so this is interesting and helpful.

This is one reason I want to make the use of some sort of spaced repetition software a habit for myself. I can't think of any better way to keep learning new things than structured practice..
