The proof of storage is even trickier.

A multi-account attack (sybil?) can just store the file once, and pretend to store it N times, inflating the cost (attacker revenue) by N fold. I can't see how this is avoidable other than being an authority with insight into most of the internet traffic structure. ...Maybe it is designed to only work within china?

last question was a joke, but note that every single multi-account protection requires a breach of anonymity. That's why most modern distributed protocols try to completely work around any benefit of having multiple accounts. Storage, by definition, can't.

I can name two things missing besides opt-in and compensation:

* selected user's age;

* proper disclosure.

you have root. Might be inconvenient but hardly impossible to modify files to drop your own pinned cert in other binaries.

It opens with the most silly value proposition anyone could think of! "What if you could pump all of the Instagram photos of Banksy's artwork into a program that could pinpoint where the next one's likely to be?"

Then it is a simple image classifier with one dimension (graffit, not graffit).

I know. Perl was all that at the time. daunting! modern! no compiler OMG! text transformation on the code itself! it was the bee knees.

All that Go delivers today, over the medium, is very similar to what perl also delivered yesteryear, on top of yesteryear medium. But also like perl, it is being born from a bunch of old unix system engineers :)

I am go ahead and say it: Go is a replacement for Perl. It is nice for process and machine administration automation. Can you write your app in go? yes. Could you also write your app in perl cgi? sure. Did many people wrote perl cgi apps? yes. did they regret it. yes. Will people writing apps in go will regret it? who knows. Probably yes.

This comment is not about the language per-se. it is about the current goals of the people with money and weight behind the language right now. I guess the regret will come or not if those goals keep or change.

It's business admin 101, really. The unfair advantage IBM/Oracle/SAP et al have, is that they are entrenched.

It is infinitely cheaper to develop things in-house or with smaller software shops, But then you won't be able to interface with your factory's material providers' system, or other Banks, etc because they only talk some protocol that is copyrighted/trade secret of those firms.

They are not fighting google. Google just happened to enter in the cross fire and have deep pockets to fire back! What oracle (and others like IBM behind the scenes, via DC Federal Circuit "lobbying") are fighting back, is the freedom of smaller software shops to provide their clients with fully compatible offerings to their money cows.

This is the only time someone conscious of freedom and privacy should be rooting for Google.

> How big do I have to be for Oracle come after me

Depends on Oracle balance sheet that quarter. Or if they have sold/licensed the patents to other trolls.

Typical airBNB customer care.

How is it they recommend unplugging the cameras, if they say seeing one camera is the same as acknowledging there are other hidden ones?

How do you unplug that which you cannot see?!

...where it is transpiled to ES5... :(

Doesn't to appear to be a U.N. sanction, maybe it is indeed "only" a US sanction.

the last UN resolution lifts all sanctions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_Nations_resolut...

> United Nations Security Council Resolution 2231 - Passed 20 July 2015. Endorsed the Iran Nuclear Deal and lifted all previous sanctions on Iran provided that Iran remains in compliance with its responsibilities in the nuclear deal.

(just went to wikipedia now, not an authority on the subject)

note: to learn more, searching for "gaia" is futile. always search for "gaia hub" with the quotes.

I can't say if it is a clever pun that you made up the meaning of the word "everyone" to exclude the author of the post you replied to.

This sounds great for replayability... but does that even matter now that digital copy auth servers will be long gone before you want to?

This was added to cyanogen as a status bar option. Someone send the patch to android, became a setting one of the irrelevant post-2.3 versions i believe (when most of the code was scratched because they were forking 3 vs 4 to tweak for tablets), and disappeared on actual versions that were pushed to phones as google do with every little feature where the community do manage to overcome the immense hurdle of contributing to android in the first place.

open source in android only means "carriers do not have to sign a NDA to see the source in order to send patches for OEM marketing tweaks on the UI" :(

oh tell me about TV contrast ratios and pixel update time!

this do not sell. A while ago phones where purchased on internal memory size (and a fixed $100 upgrade steps for some reason). Until recently purchase decision was based on screen size, bigger the better. Now they are decided on a notch on the screen apparently.

Absolutely nobody buying phones care about the items you listed, unfortunately.

Maybe they just meant larger values of zero.

> JavaScript is a really old

oh boy.

Good content regardless.

What do you mean? VS is literally the only Microsoft product that shows up here on HN every other week!

No. They just plan to use developer tools (chrome based browser + vstudio) to push their one-push-publish-to-cloud.

embrace (chromium), extend (dev tool features that will only work with vsStudio but is awesome), extinguish (tool now only work with vsstudio when serving from azure because they are moving faster than open standards.)

almost every bank has that. mine even reimburse the ATM fee.

(ok, unless you count the US crap list such as BoA, etc)

Then why are those organizations saying they won't be insured?

regardless of the real reason, it is to offset 100% of the risk to the employees (no business, no tip, no salary), while keeping >80% of the profits (lot's of business, staff keep at most 20%)

all while making the client be the jerk.

for anyone saying this is outright dumb, remember they are criminals.

They are probably receiving the money in different, probably years old, honest accounts. Which the real owner is compromised (e.g. hacked. or being coerced to send the payment out as soon as it is received under threats, etc)

Not seeing this is why developers should not assume they can wear the threat modeler hat.

Also, when you are a B2C like ransonware folks are, it is very hard to make the victim get bitcoins even if their life depends on the data you are holding hostage. Using weechat in china gets them zero attrition.

The good point of the article is bringing people up to speed as soon as they are hired.

Yet everyone here will only see the bad points of the article, which is pretty much a recipe for bro-culture and hiring fluent english speakers exclusively.

if you hire people that won't do bullshit job over and over, you end up with a organization that doesn't have that kind of problem.

You can see this happen in places that have layoffs every now and then, or that hires a dozen contractors for each fulltime employee. When that happens, you have people doing automation job while hoarding knowledge of which button to press, then you get to the point you describe.

already confirmed as fake news

Enjoy your daily BTC scams.

nice. until someone starts offering the 'swatting' equivalent on BTC.

for a price, they will forward BTC from sanctioned address to your target. Zero repercussions and all funds of victim's wallet are now useless (in the US at least) and they will receive hell from most US agencies during the investigation.
