Anyone have recommendations for learning material in regards to building elixir bindings for existing C code? After coming across this technique, it makes sense why certain libraries meant for Nerves all seem to look the same haha.
His solution to "not using Uber because it's a security nightmare" was literally to bum a ride from someone in the audience who happened to be my friend.
He also had this hilarious policy / agreement with ACM to have some kid giving him a new glass of tea every 1.4 minutes or something. It was petty and weird.
I think more people need to realize that the buzz / bullshit around "startups" in this day and age is used significantly to trick naive noobies / NCG's into working insane hours with sub-par pay and sometimes no benefits.
All under the guise of "changing the world" or "disrupting". IMO, people who take time to think about things and implement solutions at a reasonable pace are just as productive if not more productive than people who feel like they always have to be "pushing".
I honestly believe that in this day and age Richard Stallman's way of viewing computing is haplessly out of touch and no longer relevant.
I say this as someone who saw him talk to my cambridge / boston area university's ACM group, afterwords he bummed a ride from my friend back to MIT. He dismissed most questions from students and while we were riding back in my friend's car (with Richard Stallman in the front seat) he basically didn't answer any questions and just argued semantics.
I love Richard Stallman and what he stands for, but I think we need to re-evaluate how we digest and understand his opinions on computing in current times.
Interesting muzzle device, definitely makes sense that this method of removing lionfish is more efficient and cost-effective (less time to actually kill and remove invasive fish / more kills per hour) than spear-fishing.
The article did mention something around the lines of "the compromised machines could talk to other compromised machines on a network" so I guess the idea is to find a compromised machine close enough to an edge network to reach a C&C server?
Depends on the stage. If you're super early - and not a founder you'll be expected and might have to work grueling hours (although be aware you'll likely never see those hours turn into $$$).
If the company has money, 3-4 months burn is reasonable, long hours can be a nuisance and make everyone less efficient and more prone to introducing bad ideas or bugs that waste time late.
