>He wants biggest American companies that world has ever had to open source and loose all the edge against rest of the world

if software is the edge, then it's not solid, imo.

I thought US edge was capital, skilled people who can create insane stuff quickly and engineering culture that enables them

>You know what you could do to make NSO's life harder, other than develop more security? Fight them. Have your politicians attack Israel for allowing the group to operate. Use sanctions, take a proportional response, condemn their actions at the UN, stop protecting them. Block Israel from the Apple Store. It's a more direct route, and more likely to succeed than making your goal "perfect security". (Would there be huge political challenges? Of course; but those are more approachable than "perfect security")

but it's not just NSO, every reasonable country probably has people like them.

>Let me put this way: I know people who graduated in Computer Science, in Poland, who can't program. Not in some particular language; they can't write programs, they just don't quite get the idea.

Me too, but doesn't it happen in every country?

>Poland's top universities - both of them - are at the very end of international rankings.

It's hard to compare universities, unless you have attended both of them

Innovation output != Quality of teaching

Polish "computer-related" people are very often in top when it comes to e.g security (src: https://ctftime.org/) and top universities grads tends to have open doors to faang

I've seen people from both of those groups speaking very good about the schools they attended

wasn't it just a few years ago considered as being ahead of everybody in space industry?

I do agree that higher edu institutions tend to be mehh unless you attend country's top, but law enforcement?

what do you mean? fighting corruption?

>Eastern Europe, like many other poor places in the world, is depleted of human capital because its simply such a crappy place to live.

What makes you think that it's crappy place to live (e.g Poland)? except politics

If we assume really good faith

can we say that he probably saved his life from gulag by warning him?

>Everyone drank Monster at my uni

How was the silhouette of the people who drank the most of it?

still being hypocrite doesnt make you wrong

There's difference between "no sweeties" and regular cola drinking :P

>At least over here (Poland, EU), people officially unemployed often work under the table, sometimes quite a lot, and they cannot afford the word of it to get to any public agency. Such people are unwilling to talk about it to researchers either.

"Job finding office" literally asks you whether you're willing to work "under the table".

I've been asked this question when attempted to find my very first job

Wow, just like with GitHub master branch stuff

I believe XML is too complex

Also: why the fq order matters

it looks like great tl;dr, but I'm not expert on GDPR

nice

Many sites show cookie consent when they don't have to.

You don't have to show cookie consent when you use cookies purely for "technical stuff" - e.g cookie based authentication.

>Operational cookies

>There are some cookies that we have to include in order for certain web pages to function. For this reason, they do not require your consent. In particular:

>authentication cookies

>technical cookies required by certain IT systems

Nice, diplomatic way of writing 'out of touch with reality techies'

fair, but on the other hand - client side being ransomware'd affects datacenter too

pretty naive to think that datacenter is only made of engineers/admins

but anyway, even sys admins use both - windows and linux.

>This does not match my experience in the UK. I have never been asked to blog, but when I was a junior software developer,

and that's good tbh.

we need more people that do hard tech that'll write blogs than jrs

Definitely SE is kind of job where people are constantly learning

a lot of them even in their free time.

Maybe not "IT" because IT includes printer toner replacing and stuff

but software engineers? definitely.

I know that it may be abused, but sometimes people are just curious

I think we must do better

AAA games need less resources than those tree walkers

jesus christ

rust's compilation times are as terrible as c++'s?

You can easily logout from your account and view content

Idk whether telling here how to achieve this is good idea

That assumes that the user wants to avoid HN in order to have healthly relationship with it

Also anyone who's been doing something with web dev can probably workaround this with just 5 clicks

Hope it doesn't evolve into

AI bot trolls programmers with how much time they're looking on HN

Your clock does, kinda, ain't that enough?

Why care about steps when you're cycling?

it's serious question
