Ask HN: European cities with surf and tech jobs - <AUTHOR>

What cities in Europe have a decent tech job scene, and are within an hour of good surf? The jobs don't necessarily have to be start-ups, but can be.<p>Lisbon sounds like it could fit the bill, possibly somewhere in the Netherlands too, but I'm surprised at how rare it seems to be. <comment><USER2> I can confirm the surf in Lisbon is awesome and a massive variety of beaches near the city. Not sure of the tech scene though. Ireland has awesome surf if you don't mind the cold.

Bristol, Oxford, Cardiff and Swansea in the UK are all in good positions to get to the coast. 2/3 hrs and lest than 1 hr respectively and decent chance of work.

If you have a chance of remote work consider Morocco!

What "Super Achievers" Know About Time Management  - <AUTHOR> http://fieldguideforinvestors.com/articles/what-every-super-successful-achiever-knows-about-time-management-you-dont

<comment><USER2> _Not the way they are taught by their proponents. Too many use the to do list not just to set priorities but to project plan at the micro level. They estimate it will take so long to do this item and then match that with an available time slot throughout the day. The to do list wastes more time than it purports to save._

Straw man. Who the hell uses their todo list like that? Who are those "proponents" who suggest playing this sort of silly "estimate the task and match it to a time slot" game? I've never met one.

Todo lists are for one thing only: to take the things you said you'd do out of your mind so you can focus on that one most important task.

<comment><USER3> _Straw man. Who the hell uses their todo list like that? Who are those "proponents" who suggest playing this sort of silly "estimate the task and match it to a time slot" game? I've never met one._

You've never seen a Gantt chart? You're lucky, then.

<comment><USER2> A Gantt chart is not a todo list. And a todo list is not a Gantt chart. Ranting against the evils of over-planned projects is one thing. Equating that to the humble todo list is not only silly, it's also very wrong. Terrible advice.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER3> This is the "makers' schedule" vs "managers' schedule" again. Donald Trump doesn't need a "To do" list because he (presumably) works on a manager's schedule -- if he decides he needs to do something he'll tell his assistant to set up a meeting with the relevant person, then he'll meet with the relevant person at the appropriate time and the thing will get done. Also, he doesn't need to worry about the minor errands which most of us need to fill our to do lists with either, since he can just bark "make me a dental appointment!" at somebody and it gets done.

To do lists are only relevant to those who actually need to sit down and do things on their own. Did Einstein have a To Do list? I don't know, but if he didn't then it was for very different reasons to Donald Trump.

</comment><comment><USER4> You know what Super Achievers don't do? Blog about the secrets of Super Achievers.

<comment><USER5> Seriously. This sadly written article lacks weight of any sort.

</comment></comment><comment><USER6> To-do lists can work for some people, but here's why they're dangerous:

1) The urgency-importance matrix theory (<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MerrillCoveyMatrix.png>). Given the 2x2 matrix of (important, unimportant) x (urgent, not urgent), the two _urgent_ quadrants tend to get done and the other 2 don't. In the case of the (unimportant, not urgent) quadrant, that's probably fine. But for the (important, not urgent) quadrant, this is a problem. To-do lists can make it even easier to focus on the urgent, short-term tasks while starving the important, long-term ones.

2) To-do lists provide fuel for the procrastination fire by helping you find ways to occupy yourself while you put off a big task that you don't want to do. See <http://www.structuredprocrastination.com/>

I think that's the crux of his argument. People who achieve a lot can see the big picture; they can see the long term. They don't let the small tasks get in their way.

<comment><USER7> Ironically, I first misread your argument (1) as an argument IN FAVOR of to-do lists, because to-do lists have at least the merit that they preserve the (important, not urgent) items for the next review opportunity.

The phenomenon you describe, unimportant short term tasks crowding out important long term tasks, is not so much caused by KEEPING to do lists, but by not properly MANAGING them. I don't see how one would become better at managing priorities by NOT having a reasonably accurate overall picture of what the tasks at hand are.

[Disclaimer: As is probably evident from my argument, I'm a somewhat recent convert to the "Getting Things Done" methodology]

</comment></comment><comment><USER8> If I had to guess I would say that "Super Achievers" are people so excited to work on something that they constantly feel frustrated when they're not getting it done. To fight this, they probably tweak and adjust their habits until they find ones that minimize their frustration. So you'll find some people that swear off todo lists, and some people that swear by them. Some people who plan things out meticulously and some who wait for inspiration to strike and then work till 2:00 am. There's probably a few basic techniques that seem to be universal (though I don't think not using to-do lists is one of them), but the most important is to fiercely want to do something - everything else will stem from that.

</comment><comment><USER9> _In the corporate structure the to do list doesn't appear at the "C" level._

I guess nobody at "C" level has actually anything that he has to do. These people just wander around dreaming solely or collectively with similar people and/or yelling at subordinates.

</comment><comment><USER10> _In the corporate structure the to do list doesn't appear at the "C" level._

In my experience within a Fortune 50 company, this is false. Maybe it is an exceptional part of the culture here but the C levels I have interacted with both at the business unit and corporate level are mad for todo lists. Not in the "I need to slot this piece of work into this slice of time" sense, but certainly in the "Twenty Things I have asked for from people that work for me (And will certainly follow up on the next time I speak with them) and Five big ideas I want to explore" sense.

</comment><comment><USER11> Good concise article. The real gem here is about compartmentalizing. I think this is the real key to getting things done. And I think the #1 thing that makes it difficult to compartmentalize is working longer hours than you should.

I find that when I put in extra long hours I have trouble "turning it off" when I get home to relax. Not having that recharge time makes me stressed out and therefore a less effective worker when I pick-up where I left of the next day. It's a vicious cycle.

<comment><USER12> _And I think the #1 thing that makes it difficult to compartmentalize is working longer hours than you should_

i find that living and working in the same space is the the #1 thing that makes it difficult to compartmentalize for me. it's hard to "turn off" when your bed is 3 meters away from your desk.

<comment><USER13> On the other end, it can be hard to "turn on". My main reason for working away from the apartment.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER14> I am much more likely to follow the David Allen, Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology - and not only because its a more detailed study. What I found this article lacking was the suggestion of a learning curve, or how a scatterbrained person can become more organized and effective. The GTD lectures highlight the importance of finding a methodology and a set of tools that work for you. There is no silver bullet, and I bet a very small minority of super-achievers skipped over the whole organizational tool phase. They probably used them, then internalized the processes.

For people in a "makers" role on a day-to-day basis, however, I wonder how they can do what is being said here. For those, I think that swombat is right - todo lists serve to get the things that need to be done out of your head so you can use that brain power more effectively.</comment>

Protocols, Not Platforms: A Technological Approach to Free Speech - <AUTHOR> https://knightcolumbia.org/content/protocols-not-platforms-a-technological-approach-to-free-speech <comment><USER2> What I'd like to see is a model where you a federated network of moderated groups. Something like Discord except more micro-blog than chat and where you can see popular posts of sister/brother servers, _very_ popular posts on cousin servers and so-forth. Basically, a filter-tree keeping things reasonable and creating groups of folks with some relation to each other.

<comment><USER3> Decentralised group chat communication seems like it would work very well as the future model of social networking. Content online could spread organically instead of the surveillance panopticon telling us exactly what we want to hear.

<comment><USER2> Just to explain my preference for something allowing post/micro- blogging/blogging, I use discord for organizing real life activity but it really doesn't seem set-up for discussion of "issues" (political, programming, etc), here Facebook, Reddit or HN does best imo.

That said, topics are a bit like tags and a bit like sub-channels and if you could combine these qualities, you might have a nice merger of the approaches.

<comment><USER4> A decentralized platform similar to reddit with more autonomy and control over subreddits is sort of what I envisioned the parent poster's comment to be referring to. Something that more easily allows a custom format, likely with easier media uploading capabilities and a higher level of segregation between disparate subreddits.

<comment><USER3> Subreddit style communication is something I was considering yep, but I was definitely referring to Discord style server based group chats. If Facebook moved their entire platform in that direction (and hopefully abandoning news feed) I'd be really happy.

<comment><USER4> Yeah the discord group chat model is definitely better for talking actively with people, but for any kind of lasting content I find it pretty difficult to figure out.

</comment></comment></comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER5> I agree to use protocols, and not platforms (it would be better to do that rather than what a lot of stuff including Hacker News are doing). I wrote my own software for IRC and NNTP (both client-side and server-side), but you don't have to use mine and you can use your own or others too. Regardless of protocol services are still required, but you can use other services with the same protocol; you can set up your own server if you do not want to (or cannot) use theirs, for example. And, SMTP is good for email, compared with having to use a web browser. (And, there still are free Usenet servers (some require registration and some don't).)

Decentralized systems also will help. However, I think ActivityPub and so on are too complicated; NNTP and IRC is good. Also, sometimes some federation with others might not be wanted, or only partially, or whatever reason; sometimes the policy also might not match what someone else has. That is one reason I write a specification of Unusenet, which specifies a format for newsgroup hierarchies which are not part of Usenet (it is possible for the same server to feed both Usenet and Unusenet, though). Perhaps I think even should set up a NNTP for Hacker News, too. (I also invented a Netsubscribe protocol, which could be a simpler alternative to ActivityPub/Mastodon.)

Let's Make Internet Great Again

</comment><comment><USER6> The "Protocols, Not Platforms" debate is naive and misses the point. Here is why:

\- Let's say someone builds a social network protocol (including messaging, photo sharing etc).

\- Let's be generous and say this protocol becomes so successful it turns into a de facto standards.

\- The market will rush to build the best client for the protocol. Facebook, Google, maybe an outsider will come up with the best client that has all the features and added goodies (magic emojis, special video effects, something new etc).

\- People wanting to get on the networks will never google the protocol just like people who want to get an email client do not google "imap". They just google the most popular client such as gmail.

\- Overtime, the most popular client will get a quasi-monopoly and will become incompatible with the rest of clients, no one will notice except for us nerds on HN.

\- This already happened with xmpp (facebook messenger, google hangouts and others used to be on xmpp).

Now you might say, "but how about email"? Well, first of all, email is an oligopoly and it's practically impossible for individuals to set up their own servers and expect their emails to get delivered all of the time. So I wouldn't call email such a great success story. Another thing is that email is work oriented and so it makes sense to keep compatibility between businesses. Email also arrived very early and had time to spread slowly at the beginning of the internet among various small to big players, which explains why no company could take over it.

For all these reasons, I do not believe in a magical protocol that would save us from big tech. The protocol in itself would not be enough. A non-profit would need to be in charge of the most popular client such as Mozilla with Firefox, but even then this did not turned out as expected although Chromium is open source so yay.

<comment><USER7> It is not "practically impossible" for individuals to set up their own email servers with good deliverability. I run my own and emails get delivered to my intended receivers all the time. If you want email to become more distributed someone ought to come along to make a Helm that isn't so expensive.

You just have to make the protocol sticky enough and distributed enough so one corp doesn't wield Total Control.

<comment><USER8> > I run my own and emails get delivered to my intended receivers all the time.

That's a pretty low bar, unless you mean "all the time" as "every single time". :)

Before I gave up and moved to AWS Workmail this year, I'd run a personal mail server for about 20 years. Major issues were not too uncommon, and minor ones were constant:

"Why can everyone in the world get mail from my server except outlook.com users?" I can't remember if I ever resolved this.

"Why do more and more corporate servers ignore SMTP retry rules?" It was nice when only spammers did that and graylisting was effective.

"No, it's not my server that's sending those spam emails that spoof my domain; I checked. Yes, really." This happened more than a decade ago, and I assume it either stopped or was solved by the spread of TLS or something.

<comment><USER7> I have had a Gmail account since the beginning and have, not infrequently, had my sent email arrive in spam. These arguments against the ease with which we may decentralize basic ubiquitious protocols lean on, I don't know, a basic bleak outlook?

People thought I was crazy for unplugging from every Facebook service. No one would follow me over to my messenger of choice they said. I proved them wrong. And you can too. But it takes a little patience and a little persistence and little sticking to your ideals. Our basic internet freedoms are worth this.

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER9> I've said this 1000 times, but garbage like Facebook or Twitter could be replaced overnight by a protocol. There is really zero reason it couldn't be built from existing distributed tooling, be secure and just as useful without lizard people getting in the way.

<comment><USER10> > I've said this 1000 times, but garbage like Facebook or Twitter could be > replaced overnight by a protocol.

No, it couldn't, and saying it more won't make it any more true. That is, sure, you can design a protocol that supports manpy of the same basic functions (and such protocols exist already), but centralized governance is ultimately part of what people want, or at least essential to stop a social network into degrading into what people don't want.

<comment><USER11> Neither of you have provided any meaningful arguments to support your positions.

I would say that Mastodon is an example that supports the OP's point. But in the real, practical world, a social network needs investment and marketing to catch on and extend to a useful amount of people. So in that sense, you're correct as well.

<comment><USER12> Mastodon is minuscule, and has already been showing growing pains.

(I'm on Mastodon, have been for two years, and love it. But it is no majick bullet.)

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER13> I care about Free Speech.

But most people don't.

In order for a protocol to be successful, it must bridge that gap.

That's what we've already done, gotten 15Million monthly active users onto GUN's network ( [https://github.com/amark/gun](https://github.com/amark/gun) ), by focusing on value add - whether people are idealistic or don't care, they're still using it.

This is how protocols will grow. Stay true to your values, but ship value add.

<comment><USER14> I'm not sure exactly what this is, but looks very interesting. I'm going to dive a little deeper. Thanks for sharing.

</comment></comment><comment><USER15> People who want to take control of their own lives, and curate the mix of knowledge / fact / falsity / opinion / propaganda / disinformation / useful- idiocy in their own heads can technically head in this direction today.

I think a key ingredient is translators that move content out of the platform- bubbles into the world you control. You can move material between RSS, email, blog channel easily, if you choose. Harder but doable is to crack the walled gardens of social media.

These can fuel development of better forms of expression than the primitive nonsense so often used today.

Many people have major barriers; not interested in taking control, not going to build anything myself, fear of leaving the mob, will accept advertising, want somebody to tell me what to do, too rushed...

That's fine, they will continue. Those who want can, and are, going down the other road.

<comment><USER16> Export options, even if mandated by the GDPR, are one avenue people could use. Though I imagine the tooling probably demands a lot of maintenance to harmonize all the different forms.

<comment><USER15> In that regard Facebook has improved recently. Their export now has a JSON format which is useful. They still exclude so much that it may be better to scrape from the UI though.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER17> The downside of empowering the best of us with the ability to organize without constraints is that we empower the worst of us to do the same.

For whatever reference of best/worse you may have.

</comment><comment><USER18> SMTP is a better example than NNTP because it is so much more mainstream.

SMTP had a spam crisis. Early on providers were loathe to filter at the server. They didn't want the responsibility. Then there was the "love letter" virus that brought the net to its knees. Filtering became a requirement for survival but e-mail deliverability became a problem, first with AOL as a big provider, later with gmail, etc.

SMTP is nominally open but if gmail wants to trash the mail you send you may be helpless.

Any new protocol has to face spam not only as an annoyance but also a dos threat. Look at how unusable the web has becomes with multiple pop-up windows, sites that say mobile is the future but God forbid you try to close the ads on your tablet, 50mbps downloads to see 5000 bytes of text, ...

</comment><comment><USER19> This is what we are aiming for in building TruStory ([https://beta.trustory.io](https://beta.trustory.io)).

The protocol is built as a distributed proof-of-stake network, where people can earn a crypto token by contributing good content, or by running nodes of the blockchain. Users and node operators can take ownership in, and govern the network based on how much of the crypto token they own (or have earned).

I recently wrote about the architecture at [https://blog.cosmos.network/building-a-decentralized-app- wit...](https://blog.cosmos.network/building-a-decentralized-app-with-cosmos- sdk-3c535cdc6a6a).

<comment><USER20> How does this prevent a Sybil attack or astroturfing?

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party)

<comment><USER19> We have a couple of mechanisms in place for this.

Users who have earned a certain amount of the token by being good citizens of the network will have to vote in new users. These users also moderate content, where offenders get some of their token taken away. Furthermore, network operators (validators) can vote to remove malicious content and users. And as with most crypto networks, a small fee (gas) is charged for usage.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER21> I've long felt that we need a "post office of the internet". Some type of communication platform that's truly neutral, doesn't attempt to censor or manipulate the activities of its users aside from enforcing the law, and isn't liable in any way for their behavior. Sure, you can send a bomb or a death threat or an illegal copy of a movie through the mail, but the post office isn't liable for the actions of its customers. Its only responsibility is to filter illegal content as best it can, and that's all.

Don't Hash Secrets (2008) - <AUTHOR> http://benlog.com/articles/2008/06/19/dont-hash-secrets/ <comment><USER2> > In fact, I use HMAC for my password databases, too. It's overkill, but it > lets me use a standard library that likely makes me safer in the long run.

Actually, it's underkill. HMAC is too easy to crack to be used as a password hashing scheme.

[http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/16809/is-a- hmac-...](http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/16809/is-a-hmac-ed- password-is-more-secure-than-a-bcrypt-ed-or-scrypt-ed-password)

[http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/3165/hmac-why- no...](http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/3165/hmac-why-not-hmac-for- password-storage)

</comment><comment><USER3> Fun fact: it was a design goal of the SHA-3 competition not to have the hash be vulnerable to length extension attacks, which obviates the need for constructions like HMAC that apply the hash function twice.

<comment><USER4> Sufficiently truncated hashes (SHA-384, SHA-512/256, SHA-512/224) in the SHA2 family should have the same property, right? You need the missing state to extend.

<comment><USER5> Yes, but that's a hack, and not nearly as well-studied as HMAC or SHA-3. If you decide to do it this way, at least be sure to make it very obvious that "upgrading" to SHA-512 completely breaks your cryptosystem.

<comment><USER6> It is fairly well-studied; it's called chopMD in the literature. It has been shown to be indifferentiable from a random oracle [1, Theorem 3], provided enough bits are chopped.

[1] [http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~puniya/papers/merkle.pdf](http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~puniya/papers/merkle.pdf)

<comment><USER5> Thanks for pointing me at those papers! I'll admit it's been studied more than I thought.

(I was actually more worried about cryptanalytic attacks - the construction itself is obviously secure when instantiated with a random oracle - but I don't really see how that would work either. I maintain that it's ugly, but HMAC isn't the nicest construction in the world either, I suppose...)

<comment><USER6> I suppose there is some CYA value in HMAC, since there is less attacker control over what goes in the outer hash. If the case is that prefix-MAC (with chopMD) is vulnerable to some kind of cryptanalysis and HMAC is not, however, the hash should be considered broken, and not in the academic sense.

<comment><USER5> You're completely right, but it's not like people have transitioned off of SHA-1 (Wikipedia: "As of 2012, the most efficient attack against SHA-1 is considered to be the one by Marc Stevens with an estimated cost of $2.77M to break a single hash value by renting CPU power from cloud servers"; note that renting cloud server time is not a sensible way to approach this problem). Or even MD5.

</comment></comment></comment></comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER7> Not a very helpful way to express the advice; if you tell people "don't hash secrets" the natural interpretation is "send them in the clear".

HMACs have their use case, and it's good to use them for that, but honestly it's a tiny corner of the possibilities for "hashing secrets", and an effective approximation (hash(message + hash(secret)), as mentioned towards the end of the article) is the obvious approach if you have any idea how hashes work, and just as effective as a dedicated HMAC.

<comment><USER8> I think the point is that that is _not_ necessarily true for all hash functions, since reordering your example with SHA1 renders it weaker.

If I understood correctly _sha1(sha1(secret) + message)_ is _not_ safe, because from that hash you can calculate _sha1(sha1(secret) + message + ANYTHING)_

<comment><USER9> So why not _sha1(sha1(secret) + sha1(message))_? Or is that essentially an MAC?

<comment><USER10> One rule of thumb I've discovered: Whenever you say "why not X?", where "X" is some nonstandard construction, the answer is "because X is horribly broken in ways you can't even imagine".

</comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER11> This article is right for the case of using HMACs for two parties checking the authenticity of a message passed between them (assuming they have a shared secret).

But it's wrong about the database password storage. These days the real threat there is the monstrous computing power available to compute tons of hashes simultaneously. To combat that, you want a hashing function specifically designed to be _slow_. And not just slow, but to have a tunable parameter so you can require more and more work as GPUs get faster and cheaper. PBKDF2 is such a function, and is used by Django as of a year or two ago. bcrypt is another.

<comment><USER12> This. Use bcrypt or scrypt for storing secrets. HMAC is for...hash(ing) message authentication code(s); read: [http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/16809/is-a- hmac-...](http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/16809/is-a-hmac-ed- password-is-more-secure-than-a-bcrypt-ed-or-scrypt-ed-password)

</comment></comment><comment><USER13> Say it with me one more time: do not use fast hash functions for passwords.

</comment><comment><USER10> Okay, not to put anyone off crypto, as it's really really important, but the one rule everyone needs to remember: Use the current best practices for each situation, don't make up your own crypto.

This usually means "use whatever is in OpenSSL, Keyczar, etc", that's what it's for.

<comment><USER14> The article makes the point that it is insufficient to use good crypto algorithms / implementations. You must also use it correctly.

"A component can only be secure under certain well-defined circumstances, not for any use that happens to look similar."

<comment><USER10> A hash is a crypto primitive, it's not what you use for that. If you want to store a password, you use a KDF. If you want to fake-sign, you use an HMAC with a secret. You don't use a hash, just like you don't use plain AES to encrypt a file.

<comment><USER15> > _don 't use plain AES to encrypt a file_

What does "plain" mean in this context? (If you mean ECB then you are right, but it is ambiguous.)

<comment><USER10> I mean a mode without authenticated encryption:

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authenticated_encryption](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authenticated_encryption)

</comment></comment></comment></comment></comment><comment><USER16> But he is hashing secrets. Salted and Hashed passwords are extremely important...and saying "Don't Hash Secrets" is just an attempt to get him more traffic.

There is another important aspect to salting that he neglects to say. Adding an 8byte salt is extremely effective (along with a proper password hashing algorithm) in increasing the complexity of generating and storing rainbow tables. PBKDF2 and bcrypt are both slow enough to protect a lot of that low hanging fruit that he is saying ISN'T protected....Sure if you use SHA1....they might get some of them....but everyone agrees you should not be using SHA1 ! (for passwords).

</comment><comment><USER17> OK I have a probably naive cryptography question. It seems that one good way of transmitting secrets would be to do so with everyone thinking they are encrypted one way (or possibly not at all) when the truth is they are encrypted another way. I.e. a difficult problem to know when the message has been unencrypted. So basically there would be multiple ways to read the message which are plausible as the true unencrypted message. Is there any parallel to that sort of thing in modern cryptography?

</comment><comment><USER18> > Here's the deal: if I tell you that SHA1(foo) is X, then it turns out, in a > lot of cases, to be quite easy for you to determine what SHA1(foo || bar) > is.

This is simply wrong. Padding of cryptographic hash functions protect against this behavior.

<comment><USER6> It is not simply wrong. The usual Merkle-Damgard padding only means that you get something like SHA1(foo || garbage || bar) instead, garbage being smaller than the hash's block size.

<comment><USER18> Maybe disingenuous was a better word. The "garbage" in the middle still protects against most (though not all) attacks.

</comment></comment></comment><comment><USER19> On salting, the author says that an attacker needs to rebuild the dictionary for each user they attack.

But doesn't the attacker only need to rebuild the dictionary once, using the salt they recovered?

<comment><USER20> The salt is different for EVERY secret. When you hash/store a new password, you randomly generate a salt for THAT password, and you store each salt & password together.

Because each salt is ~unique, the attacker must rebuild a separate dictionary for every single stored secret. That's functionally the same as having no dictionary, at all.</comment></comment>

<comment><USER2> I only read the abstract, but saw it mentioned program obfuscation, which is something I'm passingly familiar with but don't know much about.

Does anyone know the current state of this? From what I've heard from reverse engineers most software seems fairly easy to reverse. And even something like Stuxnet was capable of being reversed by a relatively small consulting firm if I recall correctly.</comment>

I also have some experience developing native iOS applications with objective-c. And i've been using my javascript and objective-c skills in a react native project lately. I really liked the idea and i'd like building more products using react-native.

I've been working on web applications for over two years and I'm most interested in joining a remote or Berlin-based team that's working on something awesome!

My current gig has been working on internationalized apps in Berlin's IoT sector. I'm really interested in doing remote work again so it's worth noting that my remote experience includes work for an early-stage SF startup, an Ecuadorian newspaper's online archive and a real-estate listing site.

Believes every technology and teammate brings value to the table.

Biggest regret is brushing off any technology without taking the time to understand the others' perspective fully. I'm lucky to grow up in open source over the past 12 years where I had the opportunity to learn by example.

I love FreeBSD and use it as a main operating system, after 10+ years of using Linux.

If you're on a php, python or javascript codebase with a lot of technical debt, I'd probably be of service to you. I like working on big projects that use open source technologies.

At the present time I'm also available on nights/weekends for part time things (code reviewing, bug fixing, devop scripts).

I absolutely love learning new fields, so I'm fairly technology- and project- agnostic. Ever since I visited a friend at his DARPA challenge team I've told people that my dream job would be working on self driving cars (sadly NYC isn't the best place for that right now). Lately, I'm more likely to find myself dreaming about strong AI.

I was iOS lead at OkCupid and, before that, worked on their homegrown distributed matching system and web server. I've [hacked coroutines into C++]([http://sidnicious.github.io/team/](http://sidnicious.github.io/team/)), started prototyping [a modern terminal]([https://github.com/Sidnicious/Hoisin](https://github.com/Sidnicious/Hoisin)), and recently started writing a ZigBee stack to control my lightbulbs without a proprietary base station.

Most recently, I did a stint at [Keybase]([https://keybase.io/](https://keybase.io/)) working on semi-open source end-to-end crypto.

I was in the third batch of Hacker School and, every once and a while, I volunteer at conferences like HOPE, events.ccc.de, and Maker Faire.

The world's most lucrative social network? China's Tencent beats $1 billion revenue mark - <AUTHOR> http://venturebeat.com/2009/03/19/the-worlds-most-lucrative-social-network-chinas-tencent-beats-1-billion-revenue-mark/ <comment><USER2> Except if you read the article, they make the vast majority of their money off their non-social network properties. You'd be better off comparing them to Yahoo!, AOL, or Google. And they'd be tiny in that comparison.

Yet another piece of link-bait titling (title copied from source site)…sigh.

Fortinet removes SSH and database backdoors from its SIEM product - <AUTHOR> https://www.zdnet.com/article/fortinet-removes-ssh-and-database-backdoors-from-its-siem-product/ <comment><USER2> I misinterpreted the title. Fortinet has removed backdoors from SSH and databases in its product. Granted, I'm genuinely surprised any security program has this feature:

> "FortiSIEM has a hardcoded SSH public key for user 'tunneluser' which is the > same between all installs," said Andrew Klaus, the security researcher who > identified this issue.

What other horrible assumptions have been hardcoded into this product that we have yet to discover?

</comment><comment><USER3> Bummer. Now it will be slightly harder to block these monstrosities and the idiots who want to buy them.

</comment><comment> java-man They removed a feature.

Somebody coded this in, code has been reviewed, managers approved the time spent on this, meetings held, etc. There is a git commit (or CVS, who knows) with the name and a ticket number.

Right now there are probably urgent meetings being held between the interested parties to re-introduce a similar access feature back to the code base, using maybe a password derived from an ip address or serial number.</comment>
