I asked because I've heard more than once that a company either stretched the truth or outright lied on these questionnaires.
So stretching the truth could be:
Do you adhere to NIST?
The truth could be: "well not exactly but that's on our roadmap,we do somethings that are close enough."
That would get a 'YES' check.
Or something like end to end encryption. The answer could be a 'YES' because a company uses front-end TLS and pretends to not completely understand the ask.
In this case it is mostly the business either forcing security to bs or another group (Sales?) filling out the response untruthfully because they are loosing revenue if they're honest.
I could certainly see that happening. But I would lump them in with being educated. Since they most likely did do a 9-5 4-5 days per week bootcamp (assuming). I've encountered people with masters degrees unable to do very basic development. Understanding all the jargon but not able to perform anything beyond basics. Some how these people survive in some businesses. Staying under the radar.
anecdotal disclaimer -- I think I've worked with more brilliant people with no degrees or uncompleted education. They just had more drive and do not let anything hold them back. They do not need to be told what to do. Not saying that the rest of the people that I worked with 9.8/10 that had degrees were not great. Just there was something positively different about the people I encounted without it.
Since you posted this exact statement a dozen times. Could you answer, What exactly is the benefit for white people to be racist to black and brown people?
This was great, bravo! While I am not necessarily the audience intended. I've been following some Notebook development. I have always thought of it as convoluted and pedantic. I don't mean to distract from some very solid and well intentioned work. Just that it added a layer of complexity and turned out not to be as portable as advertised.
Please stop repeating this. Its just not completely accurate. I keep hearing it from people. First asbestos has been in use for a long time. Still to this day before anything to do with Trump. What has been happening is the number of companies that produce or use it have greatly declined. Due to legal issues. Second not all asbestos is created equal. Some of the fibers are completely save for there intended purpose. There are many studies that argue claims that it is the direct cause of illness. We really don't know. The people at the greatest risk and I'm sure this risk is universal for such materials. Are the ones working with it on a daily basis.
I have nothing to do with asbestos nor did I vote for Trump. But the knee-jerk reaction does nothing to inform anyone of reality.
I certainly get it. Zsh and the like offer some really nice functionality missing from standard bash. However that muscle memory is lost. Zsh etc. certainly cool for your own tinker box. Not good when dealing with lots of disparate systems. I don't even like to use a lot of aliases because of this.
There is a security issue with using AD/OpenLDAP. That being passwords. An example is you can debug/trace the SSH process and see(log) passwords in clear text.
Now of course this is both a trust and a escalated privilege issue. But a lot harder(impossible) with keys.
I don't disagree with the philosophical purpose. Of course by simplifying the facts. You're leaving out the logistics of insurance companies that have to now take that responsibility on. Last I checked they dont work of the sake of goodness.
You have the wrong idea. A better example of what you're calling "free market" would be dentistry or something like Lasik surgery. You can shop around and figure out the prices because they are very much apparent since you pay out of pocket for the majority of the former and completely for the later.
Would Medicaid/Medicare be "free market"? Why bother shopping around when someone else picks up the tab?
Insurance companies mostly reflect the costs of the hospital. If the hospital charges you $50 for a bottle of Asprin, so be it. ICD10 and Meaningful Use were designed for billing not really for health care. Those were federal mandates not "free market"
Pre-existing conditions is a lot more tricky than you think. The political ploy is to think of a poor person with a serious illness being turned away by insurance because they don't want to deal with them. When in reality it can be you're obease or someone who just did not take care of themselves period. You can imagine a group pre-existing conditions patients could bankrupt a insurance company. What if to be "fair" you were charged the same as a person with a pre-exiting condition. Say someone that smoked 2 packs a day for 30 years?
ACA was just a big initiative to add more insurance companies to the mix. Now it is mandatory you pay insurance companies.
Programming can be creative but it is not performance art. I'm not sure what you were expecting? Even if you found something (subjective) it may not be very functional. Completely different animal. You seemed to be missing the point of software engineering.
Funny you choose Horowitz, Monk, Starvinsky and Cage as examples. Which either never attended, rejected or had limited academic education.
