This is fantastic. But why a reduction in Apple’s fee for AppStore distributed apps? I hope the rates drop to these globally.

It does. However people have a greater expectation of privacy on a device they own than on a cloud-based solution where they have voluntarily uploaded content.

If the fingerprints between an actual CSAM photo and a cropped/resized/grey-scaled version can match, it implies that the fingerprint is essentially composed of smaller fingerprints of tiny squares within a picture, as well as of

This response is no inadequate that it is almost laughable. They claim that their experts can listen to a small number of recordings of human speech directed at their devices. However, there is no telling what people might be speaking to th

Although it is difficult to do so, maintaining your calm when faced by intimidation by government agents generally works out. Andreas did exactly the right thing - followed his gut calmly then, filed a case in the courts later.

This is great! It is a shame that Box and Dropbox need you to be a paying customer to be able to share password protected shared links.

Keeping them safe and healthy takes time. But, there are other things too. Teaching them to be good people, spending time with them to provide them with company and love (their friends aren't available round the clock). Bring up childr

Is it okay to put unnecessary stuff in the orbits around our or other planets? Isn't this space trash that can potentially be problematic for future endeavors? Are we creating problems for ourselves to satisfy our vanity?

This is a great move! Many a times, a company will set your salary by incrementing your current salary by 10% (say). This is demeaning. The future employer is basically saying that we want you to work for us at as low a wage as we can possi

This is the way to bring jobs back to the US. Start with investing "small" sums of money to create an enterprise that will require manufacturing expertise in some area. The ecosystem will then expand. Other companies can then take

I had, in the past, found that a post was deleted. I was so enraged by that action that I had abandoned HN for almost a year. It wasn't my post. But, I found the action arbitrary. I do understand that it is important to keep the spirit

I have used their service many times and am in general not satisfied. Items are missed, the quality of produce picked is not the best, items ordered are not found and replaced, same day delivery is almost gone as an option now, the service

These events could not have happened without the CEO himself setting an example and establishing an unwritten policy in the company about how to deal with such issues. It is not a matter of one person or team or manager or event. The series

I think your latter guess is correct. SRE@Uber = Ops + DevOps + DBA + DCOps + ... . I spoke with their recruiter recently.

I have generally been skeptical about joining Uber. I was in the job market a couple of months back and was always apprehensive when interacting with their HR. I have received recruiting mails from them indicating that I would be lucky to w

Unfortunately, your response seems very political and not objective.

It got converted into white money by getting deposited into banks through other (mostly poor) people's accounts. Hence, a sum of 5 million rupees was distributed among 20 people (mostly domestic helps, gardeners, chauffeurs, etc). Each

I totally got your point. I am playing Devil's Advocate to those who are recommending going to the other extreme and spending enormous amount of money for employee retention, including a significant increase in per employee salary.

The money that they can spend per employee is 1.57M / # total employees. Not, 1.57M / # of employees who left. They don't know who will leave. Their cost of good initiatives will be spread over all their employees.

This article missed the fact that the cost to the company in trying to keep the employees who will leave every year might be greater than the cost of losing them. For e.g., in the example given in the article, the company loses 1.57 million

Raising the minimum wage is a welcome move to counter abuse of this visa. However, the minimum level needs to be set based on the city of employment and it's living cost. It cannot be a flat rate.

The response of the company to create a case where they want to discredit the complainant is fairly standard. They want to protect themselves. Unless there is someone at the top that takes these matter seriously on a personal level and has

Since this is a community that cares equally about new ventures and technology, a direct pointer to a new venture makes sense. The community is getting introduced to the venture directly and is free to click around to understand more.

I use osquery for linux at my job. But I find its regex capabilities for specifying paths and various file names very restrictive. I really want to use this for FIM.

This is so needed in California. My past personal experience and my friends' experience in the Bay Area shows how hard the recruiters can push for the current salary. What they are saying is that we will give you a 10% raise from your

Love the suggestion. So many times have minor suggestions from managers killed the enthusiasm for a project because it feels like the manager can't think about or appreciate the bigger picture. In fact, it looks like he is only trying

I tried using Homejoy multiple times but decided against it each time. The reasons varied from their cost, to not getting specific enough services, etc. I think they lacked in implementation, at least a little bit.

I am one of those people who followed the path (and was told to) of "study hard, get a good job, work hard till retirement, spend wisely, ...". A few years back, I realized that one important thing nobody taught me during my child
