You may be experiencing the GSSAPIAuthentication delay.

The -v flag will help identify where the connection is being delayed.

ssh -v [user@]hostname [command]

Try connecting with the option disabled.

ssh -o GSSAPIAuthentication=no [user@]hostname [command]

You can globally disable GSSAPIAuthentication in ssh config:

echo 'GSSAPIAuthentication=no' >> ~/.ssh/config
Scala remains ahead of Clojure because it permits traditional OO. OO is wonderful; try writing some programs in a language that forces you to do proper OO (e.g. Smalltalk). Even if you ultimately decide you prefer non-OO, you'll learn techniques that make your programs better, and you'll at least be able to understand the thing you're criticising.
It looks like it's unstable. I can connect to it occasionally but most of the time Firefox is saying the connection was reset.

I'm a data science and PM generalist with experience in product, finance and market research teams. I have 8 years of experience in software, working on data management and business intelligence platforms. I’ve spent the past 3 years in an enterprise SaaS company and the problem space has gotten old for me.

I'm especially interested in building data products, AI/ML, enterprise software, financial services and/or health & fitness services. I recently completed YC’s Future Founders course with an idea for a data discovery platform. I’m in the customer research stage and have not started building yet. I'm open to other ideas and missions as well.

I'm an intermediate coder (Python) and have built simple applications. I would prefer working with a technical co-founder, but open to non-technical co-founders if our interests and skills match. I'm willing to code as needed to develop the product. I would do well working on the business and PM side.

I'm very collaborative, analytical and pragmatic. Reach out and we can chat? lgenung at gmail
It forbids 2FA with anything other than U2F hardware, which is practically unphishable. I don't really trust the Google auth system without the hard "disallow all non-hardware-based auth" restriction, due to the innumerable stories about sim swapping, et c.
You hit the nail on the head here. The harder you work, the more that becomes the "norm." Now, if you decide to slow down, you start to look "less productive."
All this ignores the contradiction between the privacy invasion business model and privacy needs. As long as you have major tech companies (most obviously Facebook and Google) reliant on being able to read the communication of their users then you're going to by consequence enable an NSA or similar to intercept all the messages.

There isn't a legislative answer to this problem, yet there are theoretical technical answers, but these do not fit with the business models in use today. To fix the problem the market dynamics will have to change.

Sure, it is in the author’s employer best interest for the industry to switch to contextual advertising. But it is also in the best interest of the end user. So why is that a bad thing?

I also don’t believe that behavioural advertising is better by definition. Even the article mentions some research to prove the contrary. I’ve seen it from first-hand experience as well. Which, of course, is anecdotal. But what is not is the fact that the world’s largest and most profitable advertising product, Google Search, is completely reliant on contextual rather than behavioural targeting.

The fact that publishers so far have not been able to do something about FB’s and Google’s duopoly doesn’t necessarily mean they will never be able to. Or at least I certainly hope that it doesn’t.

I have no idea. AFAICT these were developed because some people found Ansible too limiting, so instead of the 'narrowness' of Ansible modules you can program just about any behaviour you want.
China used this policy since they did not have massive testing (the virus was too new).

Once we have massive testing, we must create clean zones in order to allow the economy to recover.

If we do not create "clean zones", the virus will return as soon as you lift the quarantine.
Would you mind listing what "EVERYTHING" in your list is?

Because I'm also using a Windows laptop for work, with 125% / 150% scaling on my laptop (fullHD on 13" + 4K external screen on 125%) and it's very far from "everything".

All the browsers are fine, IntelliJ tools are fine, terminal tools are fine, all UWP apps are fine, Electron apps are fine, chat aps are fine... so can you please explain what this "everything" is?
Well, as another example, Mercedes was a feminine given name originally. The company was named after the founder's daughter. Now it is associated almost solely with automobiles, at least in anglophone world.
Was about 2 seconds on my iPhone and my home cable internet.
Some general thoughts:

First, let me say that on mobile devices, I literally loathe Face ID. There are lots of reasons for this:

- Fingerprints are just more convenient. Apple, for example, argued the false positive rate way too high. For me, as a user, I'm more concerned about the false negative rate. I think Apple just wanted more screen real estate. They could've easily put the sensor on the back (eg like the Samsung Galaxy S8).

- I have poor vision. I have to look at my phone close, same with my computer. And no this isn't an issue of better glasses or surgery. This caused Face ID to fail because I'm not in the expected frame. So I have to hold my device further away and try again. This is incredibly annoying;

- Touch ID has a much lower false positive rate on whether to initiate a check. That's because you've pressed the button. Face ID has to guess and it guesses wrong (a lot);

- I can't speak for other manufacturers but Apple at least puts in arbitrary security controls like N failures mean having to use my passcode many times a day whereas with Touch ID it's actually super rare;

- Masks!

- Touch ID isn't dependent on sufficient lighting

More context: prior to Touch ID I didn't use a passcode on my phone at all. It was simply too annoying. Face ID, for me, is too close to having to use a passcode too often.

I mention this as context for why I personally think facial recognition as an authentication tech is a terrible user experience in many, many cases.

Desktop is probably a little better because issues like your face not being in frame are going to be less of an issue. In my case I still have to sit close to the screen but my face is still within frame.

Phone manufacturers make this approach more resistant to spoofing by using other sensors. You say you've spent effort to avoid spoofing and hopefully that's true. I would be concerned that there's only so much you can do with a single vision camera and no other sensors.

Phones (and tablets) also have the advantage in they have a single manufacturer. Desktops are still put together with independent peripherals. That's... less secure.

Lastly, it's not a given that someone using a desktop or a laptop has a camera that's facing them.
Mongol invasions, Hulagu and Ibn Taymiyyah probably had as big a role. Albiruni in Punjab and Ibn Shatir in Damascus made fine contributions which are just not studied in Islamiyat classes because everyone thinks of glory in terms of Alauddin Khliji/Ziauddin Barni or Aurangzeb Alamgir/Shah Waliullah instead of building universities, observatories etc

No, because Buffett is an individual. The theorem is a statement of aggregate performance.

It's not surprising there exist individual people who are capable of beating the market, just like it's not surprising there exist people who can play sports at an elite level. You likewise wouldn't expect every human to be able to play at the elite level.

Aggregate performance should cluster around a point of central tendency.
We use (and abuse) Nomad for Fly.io workloads. My favorite thing about it is that it's simple to understand. You can read the whole project and pretty much figure out what's going on .

We've written:

* A custom task driver to launch and manage Firecracker VMs

* A device plugin for managing persistent disks

The second is interesting – we looked hard at CSI, but the complexity cost of CSI is very high. The benefit is pluggable storage providers. We don't need pluggable storage providers, though.

Likewise, we don't need pluggable networking.

Device plugins are a really nice way to extend Nomad.
The sealed/locked-down system gives me pause, but not in the least for the size of the updates or whatever the update does that takes forever.

The things that give me pause are more in line with IPC, DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH, the App Sandbox, and Hardened Runtime. Plus any private entitlements or APIs that Apple can use, but an indy developer can not.

I'm having to jump through hoops avoiding App Store review pitfalls for something I'm developer and I might not be able to get the app on the App Store in the end. Not looking forward to rolling my own store or distributing the app myself.
agree. However it is a crafty mix between a classic attack (the deauth-part) and social engineering (the password part).

The KARMA way is more elegant, however you still might have to crack the actuall pre-shared key. I'd put it in as another helpful tool that might ease your pentest approach, besides Reaver, maybe.
Metadata makes sense in the db - it's structured non-binary data.

But I think the binary thumbnails and so forth should almost always be files on the filesystem.

My friend who is a USPS contractor says management wants to cut costs by eliminating Saturday delivery, but the politicians don't have the balls to approve it. They are only worried about getting re-elected.

I agree completely. A common mistake is thinking that performance can be tacked-on later. Thinking about performance up-front can inform elegant designs.

'git' is a good example of this.
I don't know a lot about all of the big names you're talking about, but I see a very similar "culture" in people like James Gosling. Don't get me wrong - I have a lot of respect for the guy, he's a million times smarter than me, but I can definitely see why he wouldn't have felt comfortable with Oracle's culture. You see a similar thing happen in any big change - the people at the top defined the culture, and if there's a change in culture, those people go one way or another.

At the moment it definitely at least "feels like" it's impossible to do that with respect to Bitcoin due to...

Yes, and it also "feels like" it's impossible to use a chainsaw as a toothpick.

Maybe you should just refrain from doing that then?

Only because Bitcoin is a currency doesn't mean it will replace all existing currencies next year, be an amazing investment vehicle or fulfill any other of the wet dreams that people may have about it.

Like everything it is better for some purposes and worse for others. Stop blaming the chainsaw for not being a toothpick.

Great idea and format. I'm disturbed that some of the examples in the article appear to have errors.

One sign has a column for "MWF" and a column for "T-Th". The latter I guess is meant to mean Tuesday and Thursday, but it sure looks like Tuesday through Thursday.

Another example shows two traditional signs, one says "No Parking Nightly 10PM-6AM". The second says "1 hour parking 8AM-6PM except Sunday." The designer somehow interprets this as allowing parking from Midnight-6AM Sunday morning, but no parking 10PM-Midnight on Saturday night.

Lastly, she uses "T" for Tuesday, "Th" for Thursday, "Sa" for Saturday, and "S" for Sunday. The "T" and "S" should be "Tu" and "Su" to be less ambiguous.

Like I said, great ideas. But I also think I know why the designer gets parking tickets a lot...

You are probably confusing Java and JavaScript.

Java is not allowed on Tor Browser Bundle and shouldn't be allowed in a browser, ever. (And probably in general if you care about security.)

JavaScript in general should not be that dangerous - however, there was a 0-day bug in Firefox, that Tor Browser used, that leaked the IP anyway, and NSA used that 0-day.

In general - at least in my opinion - JavaScript is much lower on the "dangerous" list than Java, but yeah, still can leak something.

The best way is probably to just use Tails - a linux distro made to be secure from the start.
The promise of capitalism is not to produce more "jobs". It is to create prosperity. Prosperity can be achieved by innovation, and innovation is often the result of competition.

What are we going to do with all those humans displace by automation?

If one innovation was to disrupt a segment of the service industry which affects 10 million jobs - those affected have every opportunity available to create new innovations of their own, or pivot their careers to a more prosperous area of the economy - of which there would be many, in a true free-market capitalist economy.

Morality doesn't come into it. It's business. They're trying to get as much money out of you as they can, and you're trying to save as much money as you can. If their business model involves them giving out free advice, then fine. That's their risk. Sometimes it will get them more sales, sometimes it will waste their time.
It should be a detriment

If by this you mean that this should pressure the researchers to look for elegant ways to simplify the theory, I agree. But we have to wade through the muck first.

On the other hand we have to keep in mind that such a desire for simplicity (or at least elegance) is really a "human condition" and a judgement. There is no a priori reason why the "ultimate" theory shouldn't be, to our minds, extraordinarily complicated.

>Todo: export diagrams from inside Markdown source

The problem I encountered is that the vscode preview extension only seemed to work with mermaid embedded inside markdown, but not straight mermaid files. Also, one of my diagrams was complex enough that mermaid was starting to produce useless results, such as overlapping several edges spanning the entire diagram.

In the spirit of the original article, I hopped over to graphviz as the more boring, mature option. The language is less elegant, but is also simpler with less syntactic sugar.

> It's actually worse than that; any possible definition of race is incoherent in the face of pedigree collapse

I think you are confusing race with races; that definitions of races are incoherent is fully encompassed by the race-as-social-construct school. (Social constructs need not be incoherent, but the incoherence of race is not something unmentioned by those seeing race as a social construct.)

> A social construction is a shared fantasy; it's something which doesn't exist but which humans emphatically insist is real.

That's...emphatically false. A social construct is a real phenomenon. It may or may not internally reference some other thing which does not exist in the manner depicted in that reference (as the argument goes that images of race do, but law is equally a social construct but does not inherently do this, though particular constructs of law might.)

And social constructs are often incompletely shared; there is nothing unusual about race in that regard, as you seem to be referencing (though your actual argument is somewhat opaque.)

> To use an analogy, a reflection doesn't exist either,

Reflections are phenomena which certainly do exist. Now, they might trick the viewer into believing they are images of an object which does not exist (or, at least, does not exist in the position and orientation suggested by the appearance of the reflection) but the reflection itself absolutely does exist. Likewise social constructs exist whether or not they reference physical things which do not as if they did.

KVOController 1.0.0 supports observing arrays and other ordered relationships, just not values within. I filed https://github.com/facebook/KVOController/issues/5 to track. Features requests are welcome.

Performing the initial callback manually, avoiding the KVO initiated one, was shown to be a performance improvement under certain KVO configurations.

We've updated the readme to include an example tracking the controller object. An instance variable should all that is necessary: https://github.com/facebook/KVOController.
Trader Joe's can get meal costs really low. If you're past the stage on only eating rice, eggs, and chopped veggies, TJs is comparable to any other store. Having lived in relatively poor neighborhoods that are not at all hip, it's not like fresh fruit is super available otherwise.

This is everybody in the industry. Convince yourself otherwise at your own peril.

Really? Even open source projects? Or let me guess, you'd argue that open source projects aren't part of the "industry".
It seems to me like git and mercurial both solve this problem, but picking one is a big choice with lots of hard to evaluate impacts. Is doing a weekend project on each enough exposure to make a good decision? If not, any other suggestions?
Some thoughts re WoW vs banks:

WoW Authenticator is optional, costs $30~40, and intended for serious WoW players in a community with very strong peer support. Banks can do first two but don't have a community of tech savvy users to reduce cost of support manageable.

So Blizzard could but banks couldn't. Will this change? I think so but it'll have to be opt-in and paid for by customers, likely through third-party services first.
And a million pseudo-science/crack-cure marketers fire up their word processors...

> We are social creatures...

Yes, but as any cognitive psychology banks his career on... we are also information-seeking creatures: basing survival strategies on our ability to predict, control, and assess the degree of our control, etc.

See also the last decade's research on choice behavior, etc. The whole field of marketing psychology is based on information processing (not necessarily rationally evaluated information, but interpretations of numerous forms of infomration).
I thought this site was very cool, but some of the problems could be explained more clearly. I was getting things without any idea why my answers were incorrect.
This is a problem I've been batting around in various forms over the last several years, most recently with my "Weekly" Ruby and JavaScript newsletters. I've had a lot of encouraging e-mails and tweets from people who've "given up" on the chase for information and who are willing to trust me to curate the 10-20 most interesting stories in their niche. Long may this trend continue ;-)

At the thinner end of the wedge, though, are those information addicts. I worked on an auto-tagging system for developer content (live at http://coder.io/) for some time. It's turned out not to be as good as I had hoped (but at least I know why) but I'm not convinced that even developers are.. and I'm picking my words with trepidation here.. sophisticated enough to put together queries, filters or even collections of topics in the main.

Solely my opinion, though, but through these projects (and others) I'm finding folks prefer branded, curated digests of knowledge rather than filterable, 'queryable' firehoses. Either that, or I'm just better at providing the former ;-)
