Well specifically it is sharing the public keys that you have in your SSH folder. It's like trying all your keys in a a keyhole since you don't know which one gets you in. This is really no fault of SSH - the fault lies completely

This article really struck a nerve with me. I've been going around trying to explain to people that the experience of listening to music has got progressively worse over the last 20 years. * Discovery is back to being passive - recomme

While the patterns themselves are interesting, the idea that all code must be rearranged in to smaller functions to be “refactored” seems a little juvenile.

People make mistakes and exhibit wreckless behavior every once in a while. Unlike milk, the value of a ticket is not set by markets. It is a financial instrument used to discourage behavior. It's really not too dissimilar to a tax. We

I think it might help to flip the argument on its head. If you are a low income person struggling to make ends meet - should you have to forego a meal or two ? Is it fair if a richer person does not have to do the same ? All things consider

Having worked with Asynchronous python since the days of twisted, tornado - I haven't really found any real reason to switch to asyncio. Generally speaking the old forms of async syntax (@coroutine, @inline_callback) make it incredibly

I will say on the flip side - Going from cron jobs to Systemd timers has been super helpful. You can use journalctl to track the output and find pesky issues like difference in shell, missing environment variables, file permission issues.

I haven’t really seen a lot about how exactly the Facebook profiles will be separated from the pseudonyms on the libra network. I think this is also part of a gamble that people don’t really care that much about privacy in most of their pur

It has always been the advertisers that are asking for the sort of tooling that can be taken advantage of during the election cycle. If you don’t think Russia should be able to manipulate the black voting populace then maybe it’s worth thin

A similar argument could be made for the implementation of HTTPS a few years ago. The goal should be to empower trusted software to inform a user. In the case of HTTPS, that trusted software is your browser, in the case of signed emails, th

In my experience data interoperability issues are usually resolved by writing adapters, and using a datastore with strict integrity constraints. This is essentially what creating a blockchain transaction is. The chain code is responsible fo

This truly feels like an article that doesn’t understand the landscape of digital advertising. It is naive to believe that publishers are taking queues from Facebook on how to publish their content. All publishers ( including Facebook ) tak

I think the onset of election season has caused these types of articles to become in-vogue. I have been surprised by the reactions of what is mostly a tech savvy community. Full disclaimer, I work at a voting tech company as an engineer, an

It is not in the style of a blog, but I put this together a few years ago to teach people how async programming works. It includes a handful of examples on generators, Coroutines, how to make use of the socket libs non blocking functionalit

This seems to be a popular opinion amongst a lot of ethereum developers I have met. I definitely don’t have as much experience in the field so honest question here. If a permissioned blockchain has nodes running across multiple organization

Worked through this about a year ago, but at the time I wrote it, it worked interchangeably with Bitcoin blocks. https://github.com/ltavag/blocks/blob/master/block.py#L68

It’s astonishing to me that people would argue that docker is some how a simpler solution. Some would happily maintain a container registry, constantly worry about the order of operations in your docker file, create a build pipeline in a fo

I think people who don't prefer Docker find it hard to articulate what is wrong with it. To me it is really a question of, how do you vet software before you use it ? Will you take the time to understand your stack before it's dep

What’s interesting about this announcement is that they not only announced a type checking tool, they are also open sourcing a tool that will apply a patch and annotate your code with types for you. I tried a demo of this at the Instagram b

I would imagine the best you can do here is a quorum of centralized authentication services.

I actually wrote up a small POC for blockchains in Python myself a few months ago. I went a little bit further in to the idea of transaction verification, as well as reverse traversing existing transactions as a part of that. https:/&

Yep, completely agree. I think Spotify had a really good opportunity to innovate as a streaming music player but instead they created a Frankenstein's itunes. I'm not mad that they copied an existing interface but that they copied

Ironic that a story about clickbait is clickbait. As you get to the third or fourth paragraph it turns in to a plug for Chartbeat and simultaneously a hit piece for Vox.

Technical debt doesn't necessarily arise from using the wrong (a.k.a pretty similar but with a few features less than what you need) tool. In my experience, it's more likely that technical debt arises from trying to use thew newes

I think one of the quirks you can run in to with MySQL's implementation is that even the DB decides to do an update, you end up burning an auto incremented key. Curious to see what PG ends up doing here.

As someone who used to work at Critical Mention I can speak a little bit to this. The infrastructure was set up about 9-10 years ago and initially involved one very dedicated engineer driving around the country installing DVR's at the

I think the issue is that there are million unfilled jobs out there, and there are qualified people who are ready to fill them. By putting a giant recruiting company between the two, you are filtering a lot of good people out of the equatio
