There is an easy way to solve this at the protocol level: maintain a hash of everything that was said and sign it during authentication. Any downgrade attack will show up and cause the wrong hash to be signed.
There's also YAML that looks similar to REN, but behaves similar to JSON. There are libraries for all major languages/platforms.

I would agree from an end user POV (I have to do a set of bloods every 6-8 weeks) the delay is getting test results from lab to specialist.

Though in the UK the fractured nature of the NHS means I can't get my tests done at a hospital near work - I have to take a days leave.

I wonder if There a market for mobile blood testers who come to your work place to take the sample.

Basically, we're fucked. When a problem becomes big enough that it becomes issue of general public, you can't get anything done about it in democracies. It becomes just another tool for political games. With some issues becoming politicized I can live. Women rights are one, with the new wave of feminism you can't really talk about it anymore without risking getting your head cut off in a media shitstorm, but that topic is generally of little consequence. We will eventually figure it out, even if it takes more time than needed, and everyone will be happy.

Climate change is different. We're talking about real danger to the future of human civilization, an issue that will play out in following decades - probably well within lifetimes of most of us here. And many politicians (and businesses) are - I'm sorry for venting out - such big, greedy fucking assholes, that they want to play games with it instead of fucking solving it. They will doom us to misery and death to win a fucking election or make next Q3 sheet look good. Disgusting.
IncrediBuild 7.0 Review
I agree our issue was how we were using IntroJS. Our intention when implementing IntroJS was to simplify the process but ultimately this didn't work out as we anticipated.

Still that's the point of user testing, to find out what works, what doesn't, learn from it and iterate.
No thank you. I prefer strong borders. I like the secular culture of Europe as is. Anything that even potentially threatens it is direct attack on me.
I would say a lot of the discussion should rather be around the current structures and ideas we have formed, and which of them should be challenged. The idea of "countries", "states", "borders", "presidents", are all worth challenging, because not only do borders restrain our "freedom of movement", all of the above mentioned do that in some degree or another. That being said, I don't propose anarchism, just alternatives, something like Seasteading might just have some of the answers. Re-integrating successful seasteading ventures back onto landmass would be great, but certainly a more long term procedure. Change is difficult though, seasteading should not even be necessary for us to consider a different world, but leading by example will probably be what the world needs.

It's called index calculus[1]. Basically, it allows you to do a (huge) amount of work that can be factored out from breaking specific DH exchanges, as long as the same prime is used. Since finding good DH primes is far more expensive than coming up with good primes for RSA, these primes tend to be reused on a massive scale.

eh, the thing about margins of safety is that when done properly, they let you recover from mistakes, which lets you take risks more often. I see a break-even business as a 'save point' almost - you can go and put effort then into this or that or the other that might or might not work out, but as long as you've got the break even business paying everyone's rent, you fall back to a place where you still have all your infrastructure ready to go for your next try.

If your company is 'default dead' as it were, a schedule slip (a slip past the end of your runway, that is) means, at best, bankruptcy and starting over.

And really, you want some safety built into that too- if you screw up your taxes, or screw up your corporation badly enough, failure can mean personal bankruptcy, or if it is a tax matter, something much worse than personal bankruptcy.
No. The people already there can afford it because they have a job and get paid in the local currency. It's just like what's happened in New York or San Francisco. Don't go there if you're unemployed or it'll be very difficult to survive. Those places allow free immigration from the rest of the US but they've reached capacity and stopped growing much.

Of course this assumes immigrants aren't given social welfare.
I would imagine it means creating a rainbow table for a particular set of prime numbers. From the article it sounds like many applications use a small handful of prime numbers. A DH key exchange uses two prime numbers (shared publicly) and two secrets (kept, secret...).

In theory the NSA could enumerate ginormous rainbow tables for a large set of secret keys.

Perhaps someone else on HN can provide a more detailed description of the suspected attack?

Ah, but that was the beauty of the (putative) NSA hack on the standards process: you only leaked the state of the random number generator to an entity that knew the factors of the parameter used by Dual_EC_DRBG to feed the algorithm.

Using Dual_EC_DRBG was a bit like doing your half of a Diffie-Hellman key exchange with the NSA - with the key exchanged being your internal random-number generator state - to anyone else, this communication is completely impenetrable!

Well, until someone else gets sufficient access to the internal NSA IT systems to get hold of the factors themselves of course. And one of the things Snowdon demonstrated to us was just how woefully insecure their internal networks were to a person in the right position. If someone in Snowdon’s position was able to access those keys, then it seems likely that so would other intelligence agencies, but we’ll never know for sure of course.

Such hubris. Much decrypt. Thanks NSA!
This gets complicated fast, especially with hashes[1]. Like most of crypto, you shouldn't do it unless you have a team of experts who publicly vetted the algorithm and implementation.

In my personal and not so humble opinion, you shouldn't ride on public roads for fitness reasons. If you need to get from A to B, like from home to work, and you want to do it on a bike, fine. If you want to add some fitness routine to it, it's fine too (your lungs would probably disagree) - but you have to focus primarily on staying safe and not endangering others.

But pure sports? There are parks for that.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for reclaiming cities for pedestrian and bike travel and creating a maximally energy-efficient public transport system (ironically, the best idea would probably be self-driving, publicly-owned electric cars forming a PRT network). But in current situation one has to stay pragmatic.

Nah. They'll just change the law to exempt themselves. The easiest way will probably be to define a new "class" of citizen, who is above all of the Surveillance, which is for the cattle.

They'll enshrine this so deeply in law there will be no going back without violent revolution.

That won't happen though, as the cattle are distracted and well fed - and any move against them which fails will only serve to further their interests, for you are simply a terrorist who hates the British values of suspicion, greed and prejudice.

If the opposition has too good a reputation to be called a terrorist, I.e. They're in government, famous, etc., again, easy, say they're a paedophile and nothing they say will ever matter again.

Either way, don't expect positive change from this. Expect May to hop up on a podium and explain that human rights prevent us from keeping you safe from the terrorists and so we must pass a bill that allows us to shoot dangerous people and the ten billion illegal immigrants who are taking your jobs right now, on sight, oh and by the way we're exempt from Surveillance.

"Strong borders came with the welfare state"

I don't know what what you mean by "strong borders" but I can't think of any likely interpretation where I could agree with your statement. I'd say centralization of power, and the advancement of technology, have more relevance.
Been there. It was a death spiral. The investors (which where customers, too) always wanted more features (of which not half of them made sense) so the directive given was just throw something at them that remotely resembles that requested feature to get the money. In the end the product was very unappealing and way too complex to sell to anyone else than this particular investor/customer. And as I heard recently they hired two more sales people in order to fix that. So what I'm trying to say is that not only you have to make sure your code base has a certain level of quality (fsloth's point) but this goes also for the product.
Looks more like a feature list of your own one doesn't it?

At this point you have to consider the thing 'Karunamon pointed out upthread. If, for some reason, you can't go full-self-driving and such system is safer on aggregate than having humans drive, then it's a good idea to implement it, even if suddenly handing over control once a month is an incredibly dangerous prospect (because with such timespans, the human will not really be expecting to drive and their skills will have atrophied).
Big Data's Role in Crisis Response and Recovery
His points really are not reasonable at all. He's completely ignoring that humans are generally pretty bad at driving cars and implying that AI driven cars need to be perfect before they should be replacing humans.

If we banned human driving today and replaced it with the current tech (which probably isn't near being ready for actual use), we would still be far better off than we are now.

Worst case is that their technology has a few percentage points better outcome, perhaps by selectively sampling candidates during clinical trials or combining it with an existing method, and everybody gets charged a ton more money.
> That is quite literally Stasi. Not vaguely like, exactly like.

Come on. I agree this is ridiculous and unacceptable, but this kind of hyperbole only serves to make people discount the sentiment. The NSA has not tried to use this to suppress political dissidence. The Stasi themselves called the way they manipulated prisoners "decomposition", and all evidence suggests it deserved the name. It makes the CIA torture look like juvenile detention.

Is that a possible dark future if this goes unchecked? For sure. But I think one of the main reasons serious anti-NSA sentiment and action has had trouble making it to the mainstream is that people say things like this that make most people write the movement off as a bunch of crackpot conspiracy theorists. I don't think you are one, so please don't talk like one.
> Of course this assumes immigrants aren't given social welfare.

Yeah, that is the key point I was implicitly not assuming. Thanks.

Don't trust password managers. They are hackable pieces of software just like the ones you are trying to protect. And they are not reliable (see last news of Lastpass acquisition by LogMeIn).

I'm not saying you should ditch password managers and just memorize all of your password. I'm just saying: use them as a well-informed user.

Back in the days, Bruce Schneier suggested to write passwords down on a piece of paper and keep it in your wallet as the least weak security measure. Today, based on this article[0], he actually recommends the use of a password manager "[...] simply because it allows you to choose longer and stronger passwords.", which basically means it's the lesser of two evils.

Speed limits almost always have repeater signs at regular intervals, particularly when it's not national speed limit. The recommended max speed signs on bends are different from speed limit signs too. If there's not a red circle, it's not mandatory. The exception is national speed limit signs, which would require the car to see if it's a dual carriageway or not so it can switch between 60 and 70.
I think it heavily depends on your product. If you have something that can be used by a single person (or small group) without a million others to use it, too, than you're IMHO default alive (Slack, Trello, ...). I think as a rule of thumb if you have to first get traction and then be able to monetize than you're default dead. Instagram's social component was default dead but the feature where you can alter your photos was default alive and that pulled them through.

TL;DW: A report about testing eight different databases on a range of OSes and filesystems (including journaling filesystems) under a power failure condition and examined whether they were capable of recovering correctly.

All eight had problems. Most of the problems related to a lack of durability.

The eight databases were: TokyoCabinet, MariaDB, LightningDB, SQLLite, KVS-A, SQL-A, SQL-B and SQL-C.

I'm surprised to see SQLLite in there (I don't know as much about the others) - as their test suite specifically includes simulating shutdowns such as these.

Where do I find evidence for this? I just checked, and the welfare state started in the 1880's by German conservatives, to fight bottom-up democracy and socialism. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welfare_state#History_of_welfa...)

Far before then, rulers and nation states restricted human movement. (http://newint.org/features/1991/09/05/simply/)

Anyway, the welfare state (which includes government investment in fundamental tech which led to advances like computing, internet, etc) is a major driver of innovation and growth. More humans coming in, treated well, can obviously contribute. (As they already do, exploited for the most miserable societal tasks.)
Best answer so far. Print mode is also not bad.
Imperialism can be fantastic, but in much the same way a one-party political system can be fantastic. Only if it happens to be run well. There's no safety valve in case the powerful group goes off the rails oppressing the weaker one.

People seem to prefer living in a bad life as long as they feel their in-group members are responsible for it. For example, India has a democracy and the people keep voting for the corrupt parties that maintain it as a poor country full of suffering. They don't mind because it's themselves causing the problems. In contrast, China doesn't have a democracy but is perhaps treating its people better than India. Yet many Chinese still don't like the authoritarianism. I think it's just a sense of being in control that people want, even if they can't handle it competently.

"Researchers do not expect their models to reproduce weather events or El Niño phases exactly when they happened in real life. They do expect the models to capture how the whole system behaves over long periods of time. For example, in 1998 there was a powerful El Niño, when the equatorial Pacific Ocean warms ( we're in another one of that scale now). A simulation wouldn't necessarily reproduce an El Niño in 1998, but it should produce a realistic number of them over the course of many years."

In short, the models aren't supposed to replace the short-term weather forecasts but to model the behavior of the very big and complex system we're living in over more years.

And yes, it's the humanity's use of fossil fuels that is warming the world:

Define 'proper' mobile view. How can the designer know how the user is viewing their site? On a cheap device with low contrast? At an awkward angle at arm's length while trying to keep the baby asleep? Trying to read something quickly when you don't have your reading glasses on you?
I don't think so. For the same amount of work you get a much higher footprint. Want smaller footprint? Start grouping your dependencies into layers -- namely, extra work.

When I say that something is higher footprint or worse performance etc., I mean that that's what you get for the same amount of work compared to your point of comparison, not that it's impossible to make it better if you work harder.

Non-zooming sites can (and should) honour your system-wide font-size setting, giving you the ability to use the system's settings to achieve uniformly comfortable reading experiences across websites and apps.

Zooming doesn't do much to give users much control over the reading experience -- iOS does not let users set or change the viewport size, so everyone gets the same columns to zoom into/out of.

If you want text bigger than the single size the designer decided on, you're forced to scroll along each line of text -- which is a terrible experience.

If you wanted it smaller, zooming out won't 'reflow' the layout, so you'll just be losing screen real estate to peripheral content.
