You can come down on this either way, but part of the outrage is smaller businesses without access to the same resources most likely did pay taxes.

I’ve known other schizophrenic people who do seem to have brief periods of lucidity. Sometimes on and off throughout a day. Really sad.

There's so much conceptual / factual confusion in this post I just don't know where to start. Agree to disagree I guess.

I'm failing to see how this is complicated. Imagine the following:

1) A token gets compromised.

2) You know which token. You need to revoke access.

3) You introduce state by storing said token on disk / in memory somewhere.

Key takeaways:

1) The authentication system (not the token) is now stateful. 2) You now have to check this data store to properly allow authentication. 3) A core benefit of JWT (stateless auth) is gone.

Why would you arbitrarily reject a token refresh? The question here is which token to reject. That's where the state comes in. If a token is compromised, you have to know which one. Hence, stateful.

Perhaps revoking is the better term here. At least that's the use case I had in mind. If you want the ability to revoke a token, you have to have some list of black listed tokens somewhere.

My issue here is that expiring JWTs involve adding state! The whole point of JWTs is stateless authentication, so I’ve never understood the advantage over sessions unless revoking tokens is never an option.

Does anybody care to explain dependent types? I’ve heard the term used in FP conversations but not sure I get it.

Yeah but if I’m hiring you that kinda makes me the boss, no?

This just in! Standing is not exercise. I’m glad we cleared up this hotly debated topic.

Personalities like this are incredibly common in that whole industry.

This article is like a litmus year for who actually reads the full article.

Michael Albert - Participatory Economics.

Yeah I’ve never heard anyone claim or believe they’re safer. If anything, the folklore is in the opposite direction.

This seems great, but growing up among Yiddish speakers, this word has a very different connotation. Just worth being aware of.

It’s like checking the fridge when you’re not even hungry. On steroids.

This all sounds great but I cringe a bit at yet another layer of abstraction in an already insane JS tooling ecosystem.

It seems like half of the time you’re just using the escape hatch to plain JS to stitch all of this stuff together, no?

To think he could have chalked up the price hikes to an Excel formatting error! I think we all would have related.

Real missed opportunity.

That I typically only learn the hard way.

yeah it sounds like it. One day I’ll actually dive in and learn that stuff.

If I'm a manager, and somebody tells me that the development team wont be productive for months, I'd likely ask for some real metric indicating that Haskell solves / eliminates classes of bugs untouched by other statically typed language.

At least some figure indicating that a Haskell app is less prone to bugs, etc.

Otherwise why not throw Typescript at it?

This project, and others like it, strike me as an extraordinary waste of time.

Think of how remarkable it would be if Chimpanzees in captivity began to speak. This would mean chimpanzees have the language capacity but, in every observed chimp, it simply never occurred to them to use it?

It’s about as likely as finding a flightless bird somewhere and teaching it to fly.

Maybe this explanation is simply too long, but how is this? Isn’t this simply a measurement of size?

As a layman, I see how Retina can be a buzzword, but not 7nm vs 5nm.

It’s impossible to know whether you’re legally liable without more details on the arrangements made.

Ethically speaking, why not ask them?

The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy may be a decent model for this. Especially for the more conceptual / core areas of CS.

Maybe I’m oblivious, but I’ve never heard bureaucratic applied to software. I’ve got to say it fits perfectly in this case.

And you’re (Not you personally) free to do what like on your property barring negative outcomes for the entire community. Imposing restrictions on land you don’t own certainly falls in that category.

Hence the stalemate I guess.

I’m confused. My sense is that the approach here should have been to put forward a set of regulations and enforcement, and then open up the market. If one of the companies violates the rules, then obviously ban them.

Yeah agreed, I don’t consider this complicated.

This would be an amazing step in the right direction, unless I’m missing something.

Of course, this isn’t a heavy commuter route. In the absence of decent surrounding public transit it seems unlikely to make any real dent in traffic.
