Given the nature of your product, it’s surprising that the open positions are onsite only.

No opium is the new opium

Which ones do?

Nice try, NSA.

I must be looking at this incorrectly. I don’t see ‘Requests from Reddit Investors’ listed anywhere.

Not even with a custom DNS or VPN?

They know when you come and go by your key card. I was in a hotel recently in which the elevator would only move if you swiped your key card _and_ chose your floor—no other floor, even the lobby.

Small price to pay in today’s society. These surveillance devices and storage are only going to get less expensive, and easier to conceal.

For a reason.

Very few people know this, even inside of IBM:

Notes is literally an Eclipse plugin.

There. Now you can really hate it and feel totally justified.

Exactly my point. If it were open source, that work would have been fractioned.

Can you imagine how much work and exploit patching could have been avoided in the last 30 years?

Woot! https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/rust-runtime-for-aws...

I want to believe this is a good thing, but I can’t get that whole “we block Tor users” campaign out of my mind.

According to a comment on ProductHunt:

I have had this bookmarked on my phone for years, so I can pull it up every time one of my kids asks me to make one. :)

They put the details here: https://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion (looks like it only works on the "Tor Browser updated" page, though. You can find the button in the location bar by clicking the icon to the left of the address, or in `about: tor`

I was _just_ reading about this at http://input.fontbureau.com/info/

And this is worth the distinction, why?

Is this supposed to mean something?

> We find that it REALLY helps us minimize meetings and email/Slack since we can quickly turn to the person we need

So, it's an all-day, unpredictable meeting?

Oh man.

This is one of the oldest companies in existence. It is hardly on its last legs.

Also, patents are a huge revenue stream at IBM. Always have been. However, that merely makes them the original patent troll. :)

That's interesting. I hadn't considering the cultural aspect in the context of icons. It's often a frame of reference when color is being decided, but icons—that's a good one. Thanks for expanding my brain here.

If I may, I wrote something a few years ago about why flat design is detrimental to user experience. A lot of folks have told me that they've found it helpful in gaining some perspective.

The thing is, what's stopping employees from uploading files to a server? The physical devices are a fraction of a fraction of IP theft. Hence the term "theatre".

Right. Even when you're on a campus and not on the employee SSID, you need to VPN in.

Just another act of IBM's security theatre, and a testament to their backwards views on employee experience.
