How do you sell them - do you give a preview or how else do you protect it from just being copy/pasted?

That is that commitstrip cartoon... "we'll be able to write a comprehensive spec and bam we don't need programmers anymore" "and do you know what you call that?" "code, it's called code"

To be fair, in the best of climates that is still searching in a niche market with an attempt to do something new with an engineering experience gap

It confuses me when people talk about frameworks as being totally different. They solve the same problems, slightly differently. It’s not a big lift to learn a new one if you are familiar with one or two already.

Having lived in Hong Kong for a significant portion of my life, I have a soft spot for the SCMP. However it is owned by Alibaba now, so effectively an arm of the CCP. Use it wisely to bias western propaganda with eastern.

Sure that means they need half the number of engineers to stand still. Most companies aim to grow not stand still.

“Fixed lump of work fallacy” as noted by commenter above. If a company can get 100% more output they don’t fire half their people so they stand still/get no additional productivity gain. They produce twice as much and grow. What forum

Of course they do. And where states' intelligence agencies or militaries overstep their mandates their citizens should know and act accordingly/

States do have secrets. And when those secrets are grave and destructive, their citizens have a right to know about them.

This seems like some real mental gymnastics. Not sure how true the above is, but your argument has some serious holes. Does the bad entity that is doing bad things have a right to do bad things? No Does a man exposing the bad entity have a

Why? To punish and deter. He exposed terrible things done by large powers, therefore he was persecuted absolutely.

The distinction in my mind is HFT is “worse” for market participants because of the front running of large orders between exchanges. I’d argue this cross exchange arbitrage does still provide some value by keeping prices of securities acros

Please explain why quantitative algo (not HFT) trading is “bad”?

That’s a great episode and covers a lot in depth. Would recommend Acquired in general - appeals to me as interested in tech, business and finance

Exactly. Handling and Acceleration are the most important factors at 200cc. Acceleration because when (not if) you get hit/crash, you need to be able to catch up quickly.

Well I always pick Koopa, who is apparently the worst. Although in my group of friends I win the most by far… I’ll keep with him to keep it fair :)

3) The exact inverse is much more commonly visible - disingenuous promotion of crypto from those with vested interests

That viewpoint is both draconian and fiscally irresponsible

Then it makes no sense. If most middle schoolers have heroin and tasers we are talking about a very different situation.

Does an IP alongside a HTTP request count as personal data?

Plenty of publicly traded companies have free APIs allowing third parties to build the same front end and sidestep their primary source of revenue (showing users ads)? To clarify - I am not a fan of Reddit’s latest move, I see it as a produ

I’m not an expert on this, but perhaps it’s the usage of that data and linking to a person that crosses the line. A web server’s logs may include the IP and http request they’ve made, but once you start attaching that to an identity instead

When that tool is a 3rd party which takes proprietary code as an input surely you can understand pushback from big software, financial services etc companies?
