I love my Yubikey Neo and it's good to see one torn down and tested.

It's not surprising that the NEO board has 2 chips in standard QFN packages where as the earlier Yubikey exploited in [1] was a chip-on-board "package". I bet the earlier version are significantly cheaper. The "practically indestructible" comments are (admittedly) common sense.

Sounds like there aren't any exploits here (yet). Should some materialize as they have in the past [1][2], Yubico has always replaced my devices.

That they started out with such a board of directors in the first place tells me they were more about image than technology.

Nothing less than a full reconstitution of the board plus top management, as well as a thorough third-party review of their tech would convince me they're legit moving forward.

This is beautiful, truly thank you for your judgement.

While it is none of anyone's business. This was an AMICABLE decision both Jesse and I came to. MA is the girls home. We moved to TX as a thought things could get better, new job that was supposed to give us our life together back. The girls wanted to be home, near family, near friends so they could heal. Jesse saw their pain and mine.. I suppose caring for children and doing what they need is selfish. Then I am very selfish to give my children what they need.

How can it be cheaper to leave the grid? Won't energy storage be much cheaper if it is done on scale by buy and selling energy as required and letting utility companies figure out energy storage and load balancing?

And you are statistically more likely to be killed by a black man than you are by an actual policeman. I agree with chrisBob in that you shouldn't worry about the dangers of policemen in the same way you shouldnt worry about the dangers of black people, even if it's statistically "true". It's simply a bad way to look at it.

There is a lot of police brutality news lately in the media so I suspect a lot of availability bias is going on. Things like shark attacks, airline crashes and terrorism tend to get a lot of mental coverage because it sells. And it tends to get a lot of people worried despite their actual nominal probabilities in the grand scheme of things.
Well there is a chance terrorists will kill millions of people here and it just hasn't happened yet. So the total chance of being killed by a terrorist, if you had more information, might be higher than being killed by an officer.

I agree to a small degree. It is certainly one mans biased perspective. However, ive been through enough interviews and am even guilty myself when interviewing of turning on a condescending attitude when feeling threatened. Im not proud of it, but its the truth.

The other side of the story probably has a perspective/narrative that makes them look peachy. As with most stories, the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

Both sides made mistakes. I just hope this candidate turned interviewer realizes the solution is not as easy as, dont do what they did...or even " treat people with respect" those words mean nothing without taking ownership of your own screwups and working on being secure in who you are... IME nothing will make you a better human being than being secure in who you are intrinsically, owning your imperfections and striving to improve yourself...judging others, as this article does, while possibly true, id an indication of someone shirking their own culpability in this experience and blaming external variables. Its not about what actually happened, its about what you do with the experience, and being a nice interviewer is too subjective to know if you are actually nice or just think you are acting nice.

It's hard to say, generally it doesn't appear to be the case but there's a possibility this information is secret to the public. But take the NSA for example, it has been looked into a lot by government (e.g. congress) itself behind closed doors and it seems to be pretty useless so far.

It's sorta hard because I think the regulations on commercial banks is oddly split between the federal and state govts. I know some deregulation has occurred at the federal level, but I'm not sure it included asserting federal dominance on commercial banking as a whole.

"Going to the moon is easy to achieve, it just costs money and takes effort."

I don't think it is easy to achieve verifiability to be above nitpicking of the kind we're seeing here. Assume we start with open RTL in some HDL. You then have to run it through layout and get someone with a Formality license to check it's equivalent (trusting that particular piece of software). You then take your GDSII to a fab. If you want to check that they've not inserted something, you have to resort to sampling production and sending it to the specialists with microscopes to check it - but then you have to trust their reports. And none of this is provable to doubting strangers on the internet. It's always possible for someone to assert that the whole group of people responsible is a clever fake by the CIA. You can't check it on your desk the same way you might be able to check software with reproducible builds (not that more than a few people do this anyway).
You are correct - that was my point!

I think it's very worthwhile to let those who corrupt the justice system experience in person just what they're doing to other people. 10 days is meaningless.

I totally agree that the primary goal of prison should be to re-integrate people into society, but one of the prerequisites for that is that the prisoner understands that what they did was wrong and why it's wrong.
I think you are trivializing thousands of years of history with this. China is ... china. They use the same alphabet they used when egyptians used hieroglyphs. The sensibilities of the chinese population are not about a people being dominated by a marxist tyranny. It's china being ruled as it has always been ruled - the dynasties have come and gone but the dynamics of government - and the cultural sensibilities which coexist with these - have co-existed longer than most western countries have a written history.

The communist party is just another dynasty in the long succession of dynasties. That they have a specific brand of ideology should not fool you - the current china is more of a pragmatic autocracy than an ideological communist state.
Some are arguing that the former case isn't 0% due to extreme fluke events, but they ignore that there are people in the latter case actively trying, right now, to make that chance 100%.

I hate to say this and defend those people but that statistical observation is due to the fact that security, intelligence and law enforcement officers are doing their job in foiling most of the terrorist plots and averting disasters.*

However, if terrorists were given free rein, the casualties number on their side would much much higher just like what's occurring in Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria.

> China managed to succeed in increasing people wealth and loosening laws

To be clear, do you think that killing children or forced abortions were major contributors to that? Or does it just so happen that the two happened at the same time?

It seems like a bit of a logical stretch to me to say, "America installing democracy didn't work in Iraq, so we shouldn't be worried if China kills or forcefully aborts children."

Starting a few months ago, I'm getting a few robocalls a week from "your local google specialist" and such scams. My number is listed in donotcall.gov. It makes me want to not answer unrecognized numbers on my phone.

It's now the case that a database of every phone number (10 billion entries, highly compressible) could be mirrored to every phone, with a reputation score for each number. Or looked up in real time. The phone company won't do it -- it'll have to be independent, like an ad blocker. I'd buy a subscription to that database.
Whether or not you actually get killed by police, there's still plenty to fear from a paramilitary organization.

yeah, i know, i live in a big city. but i'm talking to some people that came from rural areas... no one's even heard of this stuff. that in no way means it doesn't happen - China's a really big place - but it certainly doesn't seem to be the status quo.

friends actually said the opposite: people in rural areas would tend to have a lot of kids trying for a boy (something about boys getting to go to school and being able to work the farm), though i guess that's getting better with the education and gender equality stuff.

did you grow up in one of those areas or something? or know people that did? which areas are you talking about?

Interview with Justin Williams, a Web Guru and a Cart2Cart User
"perfect is the enemy of good"

"And when someone does offer something like this to the community, what do they get? Negativity."

Irrelevant: nobody suggested perfection. Matter of fact, all I suggested was for the project to deliver on its stated goal or articles on it modify their statements to reflect reality. Many projects accurately portray their capabilities without financial incentive at all. So, I'm sure this one can, too.

"Fully open hardware is never going to be quite as achievable as open source software because the manufacturing and distribution costs cannot be driven to zero in the same way. "

Fully open hardware has been achieved many times. It just hasn't been achieved at the desktop or laptop level. QED.

"Openness remains a minority interest, and therefore the NRE cost amortized in every unit is going to be higher. Signs of people being willing to pay for open hardware (the original designers who did the development, not the cloners who didn't) are scarce."

Now you have a real problem. You have to get the costs down or just drop the goal entirely.

"It's not even an unachievable amount of money that would be required to do a fully open CPU+GPU by paid professionals. $10m at the bottom end. Much smaller than, say, the Star Citizen kickstarter. What's unachievable is the community unity of purpose behind it."

It's actually easier than you think. All it would take are a number of academic teams, probably less than 10, using their discounted tools and grant money to each produce re-usable parts of a SOC on good process node (eg 45nm CMOS). Think USB, DDR, cache, etc. They've already produced a processor (Rocket RISC-V @ 1.4GHz) and many DSP-style chips up to 160+ cores that can be licensed. Remaining pieces are small plus SOC integration and testing with tooling.

I explained all this here:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10468534

Using academics for as many projects as possible keeps the EDA, MPW, and labor costs low. They can just public domain everything they build or cheaply license it to commercial projects to fund further development. In it for them is job/tool experience. In just a few years, we'd have every major component we need. Then, a private company (or another academic team) could put it together as SOC leveraging tools they already bought with funding from their own operations, Kickstarter, grant money, private donors, whatever. Many funding models.

So, far from an impossibility, there's multiple paths to get to the SOC's, DSP's, or FPGA's needed for open-source HW. A good chunk of it is already built, some open-sourced, and some just described in papers with enough detail to copy. There's teams all over the world with skills, tools, and funding that can be motivated to do it. So, enough excuses: start cold calling on them. :)

And things like Novena can present themselves accurately in meantime as huge, black-boxes from scheming companies that are connected together in an open-source way. Seeing it that way, though, might make people concerned with their security less likely to buy it. Re-purposed embedded boards are probably a lot safer. :)

Yes, anyone could know this to a high certainty. It is incredibly difficult to handle and move nuclear materials undetected. It is in fact impossible for non-state actors to deliver nuclear bombs.

This is why every discussion of "nuclear terrorism" also includes "dirty bombs" because otherwise there would be no such topic as "nuclear terrorism."
I remember when I had a ~100mhz Cyrix 4/586 clone that I used to do desktop publishing (Photoshop, Quark, etc) in the mid-late 1990s. Plenty fast for that, but it could on play 128kbps MP3s if nothing else was running. I would have a tape deck hooked up to to the audio out so I could make cassette tapes for my car from MP3s.

That got replaced with a actual 166mhz Pentium MMX. That one had no problem playing MP3s along with the regular work. Same with the next machine that was a Celeron overclocked to 400mhz.

I could only imagine how I would waste dual 500mhz processors at that time!
It's important to remember that there is a downside to bodycams. #1) It turns all cops into walking surveillance machines. #2) We don't know yet how much violence it deters, or whether it makes the police more likely to be prosecuted when they commit illegal acts. Initial studies seem promising that it is helpful in some ways, but we don't know how helpful yet.

Personally, I think disarming the police would have a lot more effect than body cams.

No, I see this everywhere.

There's a large segment of the software industry that believes their way is right, and everything else is wrong. The phone you use, the computer you use, etc.

Recently I had someone tell me that if you're still writing apps that serve HTML, you're "doing it wrong" because everything should be an AJAX backend with JavaScript. Is that the way apps are going? Certainly. But is that the way to do everything? No.

I did a conference talk on Elixir this last week, and later ran into someone who told me that there's no need for that as he can do everything better and faster with Node, and "why should I waste my time learning THAT? I saw a benchmark showing that Node was faster, so I'll use that."

Here's what I think the problem is. Every morning you log on to Twitter and HN and you see ten new things out there. You don't know when your thing of choice will be out of style with the clique you run with. And it's tiring. So developers are so insecure about their own knowledge that they seem to seek out confirmation bias, surrounding themselves with an echo chamber that believes what they believe. That's more comfortable. And anyone who believes differently has no business being there.

It's like high school, really.
Me personally, no. But I recognize that it takes extraordinary actions to turn people's moods around. Saying "the recruiter messed up" doesn't solve my mood, I'm just mad at a different person now.
