> This is scary that you can be punished for using a system, not hacking but just using it.

This is a revisionist explanation.

> Screenshots of some of their calendars, including their names and details, subsequently made their way outside the company.

They disclosed other people's internal calendars publicly. That's a clear violation of employer policy and not intended employer use.

I wonder why the investors weren't concerned. They've replaced their CEO for the second time since May.

And they let you subscribe to other services through their payment processing. And if you have a FireTV device, you can search for content across all those providers

Did that author actually copyright it though? Isn’t that a prerequisite?

I disagree with encouraging people to do this. You are not accounting for a CDN here, like the post. A website on the HN front page went down yesterday on a $5 VM.

And S3 just holds your HTML files, for super cheap. There’s no lock-in concern there. You can easily migrate to nginx in the future if you really want, but start with S3

More likely because Apple gave China the master encryption keys: https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/25/apple-moves-icloud-encrypt...

What? The person in the example lied about two entire programming languages and couldn’t even touch them. That kind of person can destroy a team! I wouldn’t hire them either

I agree, but I think the idea is “can they deal with the unexpected or new? How fast do they grok things” Which happens all the time with these new frameworks, tools, etc

That’s great to hear! What changes did you make?

Ok. How does that change the paradigm? It’s still a use of force ...

I’m sure someone has a reason to not like this, but I actually think this is a fantastic approach. Especially when you raise the bar that high (a million) that it could fund many students. There’s just got to be a way to enforce it so the money doesn’t end up in some stadium renovation fund or executive bonus.

What was the solution here? To learn the Elliott 503 Mark II more deeply?

Yes, I do. They’re called canaries by the security teams. It’s especially useful for when you run automated tests when pushing updates in your pipeline. Scan the logs and database entries for the canaries.

Duplication does harm the owner, because Samsung needs to recoup the R&D money they spent and the thief does not. Because they stole the tech, the thief can undercut Samsung on pricing, ensuring that Samsung never can be profitable enough to recoup their R&D.

Wow, Der Spiegal’s lack of fact checking is sad, and it seems like pure fraudulent writing. I love the breakdown of counter-investigative journalism here.

I never understood these ~13.3x valuations. If I invest $5 in a lemonade stand, what makes it valued at $66.50?

I'm not sure what the US' endgame is, but the overall endgame I expect is that in a couple decades, China (along with their allies) will challenge the primacy of the USD, which will be a split between the world backing two global currencies - the USD and RMB, and may see the decline and fall of the US world financial position.

I have an uncommon last name, and some domain broker contacted me that the domain squatter wants to sell it for $25,000+ (USD). It's honestly not worth even $1,000, and there's like only 20 people in the world who would want it. I openly laughed out loud for a while.

Ah right, that's the dupe link I meant to post for mods. Thanks!

Also, the original has a better title & discussion. This title is clickbaity.

Awesome! Thanks for the hard work! I’ll give this a go and submit a bug report if I find an issue :-)

I read it as being sarcastic. I expect that OP knew this :-)

What a find! I wonder if this location (and the accompanying abandoned property on the real estate) could be purchased for cheap, fixed up a bit, and turned into a museum or tourist destination.

Oh man, for a few seconds when I saw "Shutting Down (ycombinator.com)" on my aggregator, I thought HN was shutting down! And then I was like, "Oh, April Fools.. wait, it is December". Man, that scare woke me up more than this coffee sitting next to me would.

> Voyager 1 departed Earth on 5 September 1977, a few days after its sister spacecraft, Voyager 2.

Well that’s unusual isn’t it? Perhaps there was a temporary issue/delay with #1? I didn’t see the explanation in the article.
