Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real

While this note is useful for achieving compatibility with non-node.js crypto code, it contains implementation details which maybe outdated in the near future. Beware.

key argument

key arguments are expected to be binary strings which is bytes packed as chararacter codes of a string.

What this means is that only lower byte of each character will be used.

#
# Here's a little Rakefile to manage your encrypted password file! It's
# really easy to use:
#
# 1) put the email addresses of the keys you want in AUTHORIZED_USERS
# 2) create a passwords.txt (and ignore it in your SCM)
# 3) run `rake passwords:encrypt`
