The 1st and only top-level comment was "can we ban the article's source". Hence the re-post.

This only covers getting the interview and potentially succeeding at it. It doesn't cover: - how many hours a week will be worked - how much stock options are on offer - what other benefits there are - what's the total compensatio

This is why whenever you build software, you basically should encrypt any and all data and you should be extremely careful when it comes to permission checks. Especially if you are a company or startup, there's no excuse for not burnin

And then we have things like this, where in Canada, a Liberal Party candidate used WeChat to post a racist campaign message: https://globalnews.ca/news/4853439/karen-wang-liberal-burnab... How can any journalists

Tor and VPN up. If this is how ISPs feel we should be treating encryption/privacy as a self-defense thing, kinda like insurance or home security.

One of these days I've gotta write, "why your startup should be a co-operative".

Hah, nice. Love it, love it that a whole business can run on free/open source and selling hosting/support.

Mention "unions" or "professionalism" or anything that involves giving the actual value that a developer produces to the developer and the story will disappear very quickly. Maybe that's because of the mods or may

Yes and that's the perversity of the incentives in the industry. Automation and coding are such high value activities that even the smallest, shittiest piece of code can produce a lot of $$$ that can make up for its crappiness and its

Facebook's "code problem" is what really does happen in the real world with such humongous business enterprises. Lot's of moving pieces in code, in people, in ideas and the amalgamation of these results in what most pro

without surveillance on a regulated exchange So we're going to have competition in exchanges, a free market of them with various rules/surveillance levels? Neat!

It's about putting a "merit"ocracy in place that encourages people to backstab and generally act like jerks in order to get ahead. I don't know why you put meritocracy in quotes, because that's what it is. The mer

The best offense is a good defense. Improving the quality of software in general would be far more beneficial than developing zero-day short-sighted tools.

The bigger issue I think is when the prosecution of the CIA leakers happens. If the material is unclassified, they're just distributing materials that are public domain and definitely in the interest of the public. If it's classif

I'm sorry but I didn't realize it was a requirement for spies to exist to have a free society.

I think legally requiring the producer supply OEM parts is a bit of a stretch. It's not a stretch. This is equipment that should last a while and you should be able to get replacement parts. This isn't a single-use phone that wi

I would highly recommend this. I didn't understand why a WBS made sense to do or how to keep a list of risks, but after attending a project management class it made sense. Not only that, but as we worked through a project in the class,

It's because you can only fool your customers/clients for so long before they realize your product is garbage. If you have poor quality you need to have a lot of support staff to deal with the calls/emails or you need to have

The dream was to make your own rules (which includes a ferrari, a private office and all sorts of perks). Getting bought by Google, Facebook, etc. is the new way of getting "fuck you" money.

There's a list of companies that have raised money but it doesn't appear that there's a list of companies that are profitable. Disappointing that only VC-funded startups are highlighted. Quid began with a list of around 50,0

The next step is the tech becomes available to everyone; unfortunately that won't happen anytime soon when it's so lucrative to create tools that can only be used large teams and megacorps/multinationals.

Surprise surprise, managers behave badly and it doesn't matter what their background is. Usually engineers have to go through rigorous interviews; maybe it's time that was stepped up for managers with better behavioural questions.

It sounds like since they aren't creating more wealth, either through increased productivity or lowered costs, they start to worry about the dilution of community assets? This in turn makes joining the community less attractive. That
