I recently tried some tiling window managers, but the problem with those was that none of them provided basic default configuration and you have to configure them from scratch. For example you have to add a plugin for small things such as a battery indicator. The custom themes were too much bloated for me. I ended up installing shellshape for gnome. Do you know any tiling window manager which solves this?
With all politeness, this is questionable at best.

First, anyone suggesting that the Keynesians "don't understand where money comes from" or are "wedded to [ideas they] got from an Econ 101 textbook" has an awful lot of explaining to do. Heterodoxy is fine, assuming that the orthodoxy is idiotic (rather than, say, ideologically blinded) is not. If you're going to brand Krugman (and by extension Stiglitz, and Solow, and a dozen other Nobel winners) as grossly wrong on basic monetary policy, you probably need a better reason than "he never thought about it".

But more importantly, Modern Monetary Theory doesn't free anyone from the rule that rapid currency creation produces rapid inflation. Wray is absolutely right that "banks don't operate like households", but there isn't a Keynesian that would disagree. He's also right that money can be created separately from bond sales, but again, no one sensible would disagree. Governments can (and at times should) create money, which a household can't do. But that's utterly different than saying that they can create money to cover arbitrary costs without consequence.

"Unaffordable" isn't literally, immediately true - any government with its own currency can print enough money to pay off any debt valued in that currency. But there are real consequences in terms of inflation, which is why rapid money creation is generally reserved for moments when more inflation is desired.

Servicing large, perpetual expenses with new money is the canonical example of bad monetary policy; funding a UBI on deficit spending violates the basic standards of even the most strident monetarists. If MMT wants to break out of the conventional currency-inflation curves, it needs to define new ones. Otherwise, it will cover a $1,000,000/year UBI just as well as a $10,000/year income, and we've got a reduction to the absurd.

The argument could also be made that a random person on the internet passing judgement on other people without knowing anything about them isn't a particularly right thing to do.
Because it's necessary for any reasonable performance. If you're concerned about this, you might have several heart attacks when you look at the obscene amount of code that IPsec has in the kernel. IPsec is the only other alternative for high speed VPNs, and it's frighteningly complex, both in deployment and in codebase.

WireGuard, on the contrary, is around 4000 lines of core code. This is super short, and allows for a single individual to audit it. By focusing on simplicity and ease-of-auditability, I hope to achieve something that can be considered secure.

Compare this to the massive codebase of OpenVPN/OpenSSL and the various other userspace (read: slow as mollasses) VPNs. WireGuard is considerably shorter and simpler than those too.

Also, keep in mind that on Linux, jumping from userspace to ring0 execution isn't exactly difficult. So in practice I'm not sure it matters.

I make a living by exploiting kernels. This makes me very aware of the questions associated with running this in the kernel. I've tried to write WireGuard using my experience breaking similar codebases; WireGuard is short enough that it should receive the thorough attention that this sort of software deserves. By focusing on simplicity, I think we can in time achieve something quite trustworthy.

Finally, there will be a (necessarily lower speed) cross platform implementation released that's written in Rust. At the end of the day I suspect that all parties will find themselves pleased.
I also disagree with targeted tax breaks to specific industries, but at least they entice rather than repel companies. Taxing a specific industry via referendum smacks of pandering for votes.
I know of a few former Wal-Marts that have been turned into indoor (electric) go kart tracks. Another former big box store near me was turned into a hospital. Great to see them reused instead of just blighting the neighborhood.
Which country are you from that has a legal system that has never issued punitive judgements?
Well, yeah, but the point is that compression can cause the leakage of information through timing that would not otherwise have leaked.
The connection between exercise and brain health has now been super conclusively and astonishingly shown, but what are some possible evolutionary reasons for this connection?

Maybe the extra energetic investment in brain health is only justified when there is an energetic surplus, and doing exercise correlates with having extra energy available? (As opposed to starving and thus needing to conserve energy.) But that doesn't actually make sense, since the extra metabolic expenditure of these processes can't possibly be all that high, and doesn't the brain use almost the same (huge) amount of resources whether it's at rest or very cognitively active?
For an alternative view, having the apps in user-mode with mandatory controls and such has isolated many real-world vulnerabilities. Even in the shoddy, inadequate implementation that is SELinux. Further, as attackers are battling constraints, they increase odds of generating logs that detect their presence via the unauthorized behaviors. There's also products and prototypes that constantly read memory to find anomolous patterns that depend on kernel or hypervisor layer integrity. The protections get even stronger if using microkernel, capability, pointer, or tainting protection.

So, despite severity of VPN-level compromise, there's advantages mainly in detection and damage limitations if it's a strongly-constrained process. Hell, I've done prototypes that used fixed memory with only networking privileges needed that logged their own behavior to immutable storage. You could compare the execution and logging to a profile. Outside that range, it was a crash or attack. Clive Robinson taught me that last part. Others were Orange and Red Book 101.

I just want to point out that "moral economy" is an oxymoron.
<(Justice Thomas) said the majority’s reasoning is an acknowledgement that “we have passed the point where ‘law,’ properly speaking, has any further application.”>
> Not necessarily more smarts, but better tech means more affordable connectivity and education, and better education too.

This is not true. Neil Postman has something to say about this, already in 1996, in "The Surrender of Culture to Technology". It specifically mentions education and how the "wiring up to the information super highway" was misguided.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlrv7DIHllE

It is very interesting in reading/watching Maciej, Neil Postman and also Evgeny Morozov to put things in perspective.
While I agree with the tenets of this article (global capitalism is bad and needs to be replaced with technological socialism (which, in my view, would ultimately enable the formation of a true Marxist society)), there's some really bad assumptions being made that I have to point out:

> Companies like Apple and Google should strive to be technology leaders, not tax avoidance ones...

Yeah, they should, but... it's not going to happen. The executives of Apple, Google, Amazon, etc. benefit from a system of political and economic highway robbery where their massive influence in their respective markets allows them near monopolies. These institutions have become so powerful that they can flip off the government/"we the people" to their hearts' content (e.g. when the USA wanted an iPhone backdoor, when Verizon decided to just give the government everyone's phone calls without permission, when many of the world's workers have little choice but to work in a so-called sweatshop to make the goods that Amazon sells).

These are not the type of people who care about what they "should do" - they're businessmen who are in it to make money, after all. Assuming some degree of morality from the executives of multinational corporations is essentially the height of naivete.

> What makes today’s world so different than the 1950s are the means with which ambition and creativity can be realized...

This is just blatantly wrong - it might be correct if you're an American white person whose parents can help pay for college and you have the natural aptitude to excel in a technical or business field. But if you're like a lot of people, your opportunity to start the next Facebook is close to zero: you don't have the skills, money, free-time, friends or family support you need to succeed.

> It would be against the self-interest of both consumers and politicians to hold tech back...

The problem is that "tech" isn't just one thing or one group of companies - pretty much every multinational corporation has a deep interest in technology. It is in these companies self-interest to avoid paying taxes, eliminate labor from the production pipeline, create consumers who depend on their products entirely, and maximize their own outcomes at the expense of anything else they can externalize costs unto.

It is then in the both the interest of consumer (whose money will fuel global inequality, destruction of the environment, corruption) and the interest of the government (or society as a whole) to limit the influence of these super-corporations: they care only for themselves, despite their vaguely liberal public appearances. They exist to serve the stock holders, nothing more. To suggest otherwise is, again, the height of naivete.
Thinkpad, possibly a used/refurbished one. (powerful enough, cheaper, more robust)
Maybe a clone would be in order. It would add some code diversity.
Not the same level of metaprogramming. Ruby Python try but it's less idiomatic or batshit crazy. C macros are glorified sed scripts, you're at the byte buffer level; it's cute but not good either. To me lisps sit at a nice middle ground where metalevels are as close as possible while still being usable. That's my take based on what people said in the 60s, after all sexps weren't supposed to be used.
My first thought was, hey how come you didn't pick Sublime?

I'm fairly certain that i3 comes with a percentage battery indicator by default. The default config is pretty good (except it uses `jkl;` instead of `hjkl`, but that's a simple fix).
Point of fact: An AWS region is actually more than one DC. Mumbai has two availability zones which implies at least two DCs.

Also, Azure India regions are not generally available:

"The India regions are available to volume licensing customers and partners with a local enrollment in India. The India regions will open to direct online Azure subscriptions in 2016."
... or never reach their potential because there's a lot of random, mediocre noise masquerading as education in their environment. there are probably multiple people like Scholze aimlessly drifting in the US right now, working as unpaid interns or playing video games all day, people who are literally unaware of what they're missing.

Let me give you my views on why I would have voted against it if I were British. First, I am pro immigration, much more so then almost anybody you will meet.

However their are other isses. What people who vote stay don't seem to take into account is the difference between "Europe coming togther" as an idea and the actual implentation that is the current EU.

My issue with the EU are many. Its not democratic in any meaningful way and it wasn't created democratically. Why all of those leftist who usually scream "democracy!" never speak out against the EU is frankly a riddle to me.

The EU economic policy rangr from stupid and pointless to stupid and harmful. The most important part of the EU, single market' could easly be done with a simple agreement. I will not go into the long list of other idiocy done by the EU.

My project of european integration would start with many reginal and if possible Europe with agreements but without much of a burocracy on top of it. Every agreement should be democratically senctioned.

Take Switzerland as an example. We forced a vote amd voted "no" against the EU after our government commited us to it (that called a "referendum"). For other isses like the Schengen border control agreement we voted yes.

It this European integration projects need explicity institutions, they should be single pourpose, such as the European Space Agency.

I am frankly sick of all the "Remain" people who are so sure about their oppinion that eveybody who disagrees must be a racist moron. And that predictions made by that, don't even have a chance to be wrong.

As for Switzerland, those who wanted to join back then also had dire predictions. The loudly claimed that Switzerland would be begging to get in. Now, nobody in their right mind wants to join anymore. The EU has neatly managed to completly dicredit itself. If Britain leaves, my prediction is that in 10 years, nobody wants to join anymore.

You removed the discrete units from the text ("Brits") and then made a point that holds true only when discussing comparisons that do not have discrete units.

7 is less than 9. But 7 Brits are fewer than 9 Brits.
I'm guessing the parent wasn't really considering the kernel/userland distinction in terms of security (for, after all, a daemon running as root in userland isn't all that different from running in the kernel in terms of attack surface; the real security boundary lies between privileged/unprivileged in userland, not between kernel and userland.)

Rather, I expect what the parent wanted to assert was that a novel malformed packet to a badly written VPN shouldn't bring down the entire VPN gateway machine, but rather just the VPN daemon itself, which can then be brought back up by init(8).

Or, to put it another way—even though the Linux kernel is monolithic, it can still pay to treat it as a microkernel and isolate fault-prone code outside of it.

This was one of the original big benefits of running e.g. the NTFS-3G in FUSE, when that support was experimental: the NTFS-3G driver did crash—often!—and your OS stayed up. The—usually external—drive would just get unmounted, and have to be fsck(8)ed.

Now, the argument you used also kind of answers this: in full deployments, we've got dedicated VPN gateways on either side of the connection, so if the VPN process crashes, the whole machine may as well have crashed, since it's not doing much of anything else anyway.

That's probably true for most networks, but I could think of one exception: a VPN gateway serving multiple customer sites. You'd really rather that one VPN "receiver" process crash on that host (like one webserver instance serving one request) than that the whole machine crash.
Fantastic reply, thank you for this.

To put this further in perspective, the NYC budget for FY 2017 is 82.2 Billion dollars, which about matches population difference.
And getting from userspace -> kernel doesn't pose much of a challenge for attackers. Especially on stock Ubuntu machines that are so popular. You could probably even find priv esc exploits on github/blogs for a good chunk of VPS servers. I did that when I forgot a root password on a yr old machine recently.

In my town, it means rugged but not luxurious rental apartments, 2 and 3 bedrooms so a family could live there. A lot of rental rental stock available in my town is bachelor apartments or single bedrooms in huge houses full of roommates - not suitable for families, and so scarce that people end up couchsurfing for months while they look for a place. The other choice is a single-family detached or a townhouse. $300,000 gets you a cheap townhouse and the benchmark single-family detached is $700,000.
I don't understand what you mean. Your signature scheme is either secure or it isn't. If an attacker can spoof or strip the signature and have you accept it, then it isn't secure and it doesn't matter where you put it. If they can't, then you can have it be in the outermost layer.

It's probably not that complicated. It probably goes something like, our species developed using our brains and exercising in harmony, so they wound up linked to eachother, simply because everyone was exercising. The two systems developed together, and simply because there was no reason NOT to be, wound up intertwined.

Like what I've heard about automatic transmissions. Supposedly, some automatic transmissions do not lubricate themselves when coasting in neutral (the pump is driven engine-side), and for this reason you shouldn't regularly coast long distances at freeway speeds in neutral on an affected automatic. Why is it this way? Simply because it's easy to slave the pump off the engine-side, and at 65mph, you generally have your engine engaged! So why NOT?

Evolution is all about selective pressures, but equally important are the absence of those pressures.

Is this a case of searching under the lamppost? As in, since lensing didn't demonstrate MACHOs, and there wasn't another obvious way to find them, maybe we should just look for something else? If so, that seems defensible on practical grounds?
The real way to do this is to organize people at a grassroots level to vote for policies, laws and referendums that reflect your values. The way to do this is to develop media campaigns that clear away the FUD. You can also probably do micro experiments under the radar that a city may approve. You have to take mindshare. These are political problems not technical problems. Much like a business isn't solely about its tech but about the problem it solves.

And as a note: It's fine to use base64 if you want. But then you also need to output the compressed file as base64. And you'll see that 3753 octects equate to 5004 base64 characters, and the file is actually significantly larger than it was before compression.
