It doesn't take much of an imagination to attack this.

The older I get in tech the more I realize we just go in circles re-implementing every bad idea over again for the same exact reasons each "generation". Ah well.

TTL is TTL for a reason. It's simple. The publisher is in control, they set their TTL for 60 seconds so obviously they have robust DNS infrastructure they are confident in. They are also signaling with such low TTLs that they require them technically in order to do things like load balance or HA or need them for a DR plan.

Now I get a timeout. Or a negative response. What is the appropriate thing to do? Serve the last record I had? Are you sure? Maybe by doing so I'm actually redirecting traffic they are trying to drain and have now increased traffic at a specific point that is actually contributing to the problem vs. helping. How many queries do I get to serve out of my "best guess" cache before I ask again? How many minutes? Obviously a busy resolver (millions of qps at many ISPs) can't be checking every request so where do you draw the line?

It's just arrogant I suppose. The publisher of that DNS record could set a 30 day TTL if they wanted to, and completely avoid this. But they didn't, and they usually have a reason for that which should be respected. We have standards for a reason.
It does not matter, really. We will never see a fully autonomous car from Tesla, for the simple reason that this is still a few years away, and Tesla will go bankrupt or will be sold within 2-3 years.
Apparently us-east-1 was the only region that exclusively used dyndns (all other regions have failover strategies to other providers and that's why there wasn't downtime anywhere else but us-east and eu-west). They resolved the problem pretty quickly, but it drove our NOC insane...fortunately downtime for us was only about half an hour or so.

There's enough unexplored for a season 3 story-wise.

I heard they will make a US version. If it's like Shameless US, I'm all for it, but usually US remakes tend to make a bad copy that also stretches out for no reason. I really like the British and Australian format of a few dense episodes rather than 12 or 22 US episodes where it's 60% filler material. However, if it isn't story driven, then making 22 episodes is ok.

After the bad US copy of Rake tanked, the Australian original got a 3rd season, and it's likely to get a 4th one, so sometimes studio heads make sound decisions.
Still out in Arizona.
There are definitely other biases. Macs simply can't do as much as Windows can in a business setting.

That's why companies like Disney and Google have to build their own systems management tools. I could not imagine running a financial services house, an insurance company or a warehouse without Windows.

Even simple software like remote desktop does not exist on the Mac. Yes the Mac has screen sharing but it is nowhere as good as remote desktop.
50K isn't that much if we are talking about a development where that cost is spread over dozens of homes. It's possible they just misspoke, but the quote about Chico did not say "per home."

Meanwhile in my home town of Fremont, a developer is putting in hundreds of new homes in North Fremont, and the school district has no way to charge those homes enough to actually build a school for them. The four nearest elementary schools are over-capacity, so the buyers will have the fun of commuting over five miles to school.

Consider the source: the linked article is from a Home Builder Industry magazine.
It's completely expected to both inject scripts into a pages DOM, and also to set up a communication channel back from the page content script to the central extension "process". It's not a rare corner case. An ad-blocking content script might want to report user-selected extra filter requests back to the main adblocker context; or it may simply want to count the number of blocked requests; or a password manager may want the ability to save new passwords; etc.

Typically, you'd expect the central extension to trust messages it receives from its own content scripts, so even though there is a separation between the extension and the pages it's on, the separation is by no means a leak-proof security measure; it cannot be. You rely on each and every such extension being carefully written and having no security relevant bugs.

If you think about it, it should be clear that it's practically infeasible to fix this hole. Extensions authors simply need to avoid such bugs. If angular1 somehow makes it easy for them to make mistakes when used by an extension, that's a problem.
Luck certainly seems conserved.

When you're involved in modern journalism, the apparent first thing they teach you is to exaggerate in the service of emotional resonance to manipulate your audience into agreeing with your fact-free premise to follow.
It is not engineering vs advertising. Developers are not some kind of perfectly pure and moral people, and engineering is not an end in itself, it's always to serve some other purpose.

There is no such thing as a tech/engineering company.
Which gets even wilder once you start to take in how many board members serve on multiple boards... There was a website, I forget the name of right now, that once let you play "six degrees" between any two publicly traded companies by following shared board members. If I recall the average distance was quite low.
I am very surprised this is not getting that much attention on national news.
On the flip side, does this state have enough water for the other 10-odd million people who'd be living in those 3.6 million homes?

Log out of Google. Now. And delete all their cookies. Consider deleting your Google account. Put your mail on an IMAP server. Your ISP probably offers one.

(I don't use a Google account. My last login to Google was in 2015, and that was to update a browser add-on.)
I built a few homes in a new (didn't really exist in 1998) city in Utah. Fees were about $20,000. I thought that was high! Most of those fees went to the infrastructure that was put it so people had a lot to build on. Getting water power and gas out there isn't cheap and the city owned the power, water and gas utilities - so they had to pay the bonds with something.

Since then I built in the middle of nowhere - no city, no inspections (except electrical) and it costs about $20,000 to get water (a well and equipment) and power. Anything much more than that and it seems like it is well beyond recovering the costs.
So, these DDOS attacks take advantage of IoT devices so how would you tell the difference using vetting when they are on the same networks as regular users?
This is not how corporations work.
Yes because DNS typically uses ANYCAST networking. The DNS request routes to the nearest location.
And if Steve Jobs didn't build Apple, someone else would have.
I liked all of Black Mirror, including The National Anthem, but that episode is uncharacteristic in that it has almost no traces of the "sci-fi"/"dystopian near future" flavor that characterizes almost all of the rest. It's completely a political satire without sci-fi elements.

Every other episode has a stronger component of bleak sci-fi dystopia.
Google's OpenDNS servers are not down, they are recursive resolvers, and are not getting data from Dyn's authoritative resolvers. OpenDNS caches DNS data for longer than other recursive DNS providers (they call it smartcache, IIRC), which is why they are still working.
Opportunity is not so far (it's actually inside a crater nearby I think), but it'd take months to get to place, and there may not be enough scientific value in doing so just to see the charred remains of Schiaparelli. But who knows, it's so over it's expected mission life that maybe someone goes "f* it, let's go take a look".
You're absolutely right to highlight this. I didn't wish to sound cynical but their motive is pretty clear.
Google's DNS has been working all day here. The problem is that Dyn's DNS server is being DDoS'd; if you request a record that the authoritative DNS server for is hosted by Dyn, then when you query Google's DNS for that record, then Google's server needs to make a query to Dyn, which is down, and thus, your query fails. But queries to Google for non-Dyn domains will continue to work just fine.

OpenDNS works because, as another poster notes, that, for better or worse, they don't strictly obey TTLs: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12762429

WHAT CAN CYBERCRIME THREATS AGAINST EU STATES TEACH US ABOUT CYBERSECURITY?
>I was totally bought in.

why?
The EU has a population of over 500 million. For a program like this (assuming it's all from public funds), each citizen paid on average less than a cup of coffee costs at Starbucks.

It's real money, but what pressing pan-European problem could you really solve with such a tiny budget?
Huh? I absolutely have a right to come out and publicly say that YouTube or Facebook is practicing censorship of ideas for political or financial gain on their platforms, and express the fact that this is a bad thing for users. Expressing such an opinion is not tantamount to stating I have any "rights" under their platforms or being entitled; you are connecting those dots in your head without basis just to be snide.
I can guarantee you that popular DNS resolvers (think 500b+ transactions a day) do have this feature!

Don't want to say much more due to it being my job, and I don't want to give away too much.

Plus the advertisements you cannot skip are like an entirely plausible nightmare scenario.
Started out with an every-man appealing headline and quickly showed its stripes of being a developer funded prop 13 hit article - totally separate from the horror show environmental impact has turned into.

The examples given are completely out of whack and strawmen. prop 13 allows for effective tax increase through reassessment of value, but that reassessment is capped so when the market goes crazy people aren't driven out of their homes - the increases effectively keep pace with inflation which should handle increased outlays on part of the localities.
I think its democratic which is the best system we have.

Any kid with a new idea can have his ideas listened to. This means we don't get stuck.
Reposting imglorp's comment on the root of the comment tree, as it's buried currently. This should restore service for those desperately needing to access Github etc ;)

I'd read somewhere that the workings of our brains are just too complex for us to understand, or rather, we are just too good to understand it thoroughly to "unlock the powers".

You see, if the brain was simple enough for us to understand its workings, we would not be even capable of understanding the basics of the nervous system functioning (we would have been just too dumb with such simple brains!), and therein lies this irony - We will never be able to fully understand our own brains, because that very impossibility has given us the ability to understand almost everything else in this universe.
Not sure it's low enough for volume project , but the closest today is espruino js on esp8266 ($2 wifi MCU) , or its brother , the esp32.
Questions have come up about the landing strategy of the Schiaparelli lander. It uses a Doppler radar to get position and velocity, time deployment of parachute, and calibrate thrust for retro-rockets. The best references I was able to find are these:

>the sum of the losses has a noticeable impact on the economy

I get what you're saying, but...does it? If I look at global real GDP, we're going along, business as usual.

As the OP says, jobs are gained and lost on a much greater scale, monthly. There's a reason that jobs are being shed at this particular company, and it isn't because we no longer need transportation infrastructure. Bombardier is out, Tesla is in.
The Thunderbolt Display acts as a dock; it currently requires two cables but there may be a new USB-C version next week that uses one cable. Third-party docks also exist: https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/TCDOCK11PSG/ Just don't expect IBM to buy one for you.
Granted, but it's still disappointing and less than I'd expect from a device costing so much.
I am aware. Comcast is just as bad. They're flouting the FCC's net neutrality rules already despite additional restrictions imposed by a consent decree to (supposedly) explicitly address these concerns: https://www.wired.com/2015/11/comcast-may-have-found-a-major...
I had the gpu die in my 2011 MBP about 12 months ago, and they even waived the $300 when they fixed it (and replaced the battery).

It had to be gone long enough that I ended up purchasing a new MBP (I'm a freelance dev and couldn't afford any down time), but it came back a-okay.

I dunno the whys and hows of getting them to do that kind of thing, but I'm still using the computer. Which is way better than the toshibas that I have owned over the years which last about 3-4 years as my daily drivers.
> Please don't assume the OP is male or not solving technical challenges. She's a YC founder recently profiled in a technical magazine (PCB Design - see: http://www.iconnect007.com/index.php/article/100587/).

1) Press coverage does not automatically imply either vision or competency. See: Theranos.

2) Do not assume that I do not have the bonafides to critique properly just because I am willing to have my rudeness pointed out. I've probably been fighting with EDA tools longer than she has been alive. And I ran a group which had a budget of more than $70 million for EDA tools.

I assure you I have very strong opinions about EDA tools that are backed up by very hard won experience.

And one of the many of those opinions is that not once did any engineer with experience ever say "Gee, we really need somebody else to manage our parts or footprints." TO A PERSON they all said "We'll do it. Anybody else will screw it up."

So, quite certainly, I have enough vision of the field to deem it "not a technical challenge". You can feel free to disagree, but you're going to have to bring some experience or data to convince me.

And, in case you think I'm being unfair, I can assure you that I ripped several layers of upper managers at Altium a new one for buying Octopart instead of fixing their tool.
Yeah! When has exploring ever benefited anyone! No more exploration!

The mission cost the citizens of Europe and Russia a bit over 1 Euro per person.

Realistically, if it reaches that point, why wouldn’t the first response be action on the part of ISP and backbone providers? I get that right now it would be extremely difficult and expensive, but at a point where DDoS has a significant effect on the market share of a company like Google, I feel like something would have to be done.
I mean, sure, from a practical standpoint I agree we're stuck with PKI, but I think the browsers need to cull, and cull hard, the number of CAs that they trust (and, yes, that would absolutely suck for both CAs and their customers). They also need to be a lot more open to per-user, per-site cert pinning so that we can build trust networks on our own.

Most of the sites I connect to I don't actually "trust" in any real sense, so a third party assuring me they are who they say they are isn't useful information for me. (Am I being phished right now? It doesn't matter, because I don't trust news.ycombinator.com with any information I wouldn't also give to a phisher.)
HTTPS does not protect you against sending data to a host owned by another company.
A 2-year Associate's degree is a bit light in today's competitive marketplace. I would encourage you to go for a 4-year bachelor's.

Side note: are you actually able to CLEP out of it at this point? My university would not accept any "test-out" scores once a class has already been attempted (either at that university, or even at another school).
If I can scan the item and then place it in the bag, I have no problem using self checkout machines. (The local CVS and Harris-Teeter stores, for example.) If I scan the item and can't bag it; but, have to put it on a belt and let it go to the bagging end? I rarely use it. Why? I want to bag my groceries without worrying about bagging those of the person behind me. If I scan everything, pay, and then start bagging, the majority of the time, the person behind me starts scanning their items before I'm done bagging.
Clinton doesn't really care about any of the things she is promising. The Wikileaks releases have really shown us this.

Central Valley was sort of ground zero for housing meltdown, since we are talking here about the entire state, places like Modesto which are about 2-3 hours from SFO are also out of reach for population? That is surprising, Central Valley is predominantly Agri, but when people of thinking of flying all the way to Colorado, why not move 3 hours East or South ?

IPFS is basically the internet made peer-to-peer. I don't know a whole lot about it, but it sounds like something worth looking it...
Fastly is simply putting up a status page so they aren't contacted about issues, and letting them know it's about DYN. And they are having internal issues with communications like zendesk.
This is how I learned english. I fell in love with computers at an early age and everything from programs to documentation and the few communities were all in english. So I had to learn. I winged it at the time, just used a dictionary, some books, and whatever other resource that I found or fell on my lap.

I used to tell everyone who cared to listen that learning english would open up your world like you can't imagine (as it did for me). How many people even tried? 0. The common denominator is having to learn, and the only two ways that I've seen really work, is moving to another country OR having a strong interest about something and using a language to learn more about it (and you'll learn two things at once!).
Lots of companies use Twitter for that sort of real-time status reporting, whose own up/down status one would think is sufficiently uncorrelated... unfortunately the internet is complicated.
Cool, but that is totally different from your position in the comment I was replying to.

In suburbs of most US big cities (Chicago, Dallas, Raleigh, Atlanta etc) you can get a decent 4 bedroom 3000 sqft detached house in a good school district for under $500k

It's only better if they move elsewhere and refuse to vote for the same policies that caused the problems in the first place.
I use a Mac at work, and we've started giving managers the discretion to choose a Mac for their employees. I've been using Macs since OSX, so fairly familiar with their flaws in a corporate environment.

I have to laugh at anyone who thinks Windows would be comparable or cheaper in cost to a Mac. Everyday, I hear a continual litany of woe and despair from our helpdesk about drivers, and anti-virus, and AD issues etc ad infinitum.

Fortunately for me, my only interaction with the "Windows" environment is via SMB to our fileservers. This works reasonably well. The rest of our applications are either Java based, have a web interface, or use a console. My immediate coworkers are all sysadmins with years of experience, and even they still have to cope with BSODs, crashing applications, and all the usual crap that Windows users continue to put up with.

It's sad; they actually think it's normal. I run into the same issue when they talk about Windows server issues (I admin the *nix systems). They don't believe me when I say I don't run into issue xyz...

Their Q&A for Windows also seems to have taken a big dive, despite all the feedback Microsoft is getting now with the permanent "preview" version of Windows 10 - or perhaps because of it, as a way for Nadella to cut costs with Q&A.
There's good cheese in Eastern Ontario, although that's probably part of the Quebec tradition.

I think that protectionism is helping to produce quality cheese in Canada. Sure, good cheese costs $20/kg, but since crappy cheese often costs $15/kg, the delta doesn't seem too bad. If it was $5 vs $10, it'd seem a lot worse.

Dairy quotas are currently worth about $44,000 a cow. That's even crazier than taxi medallions being worth $250,000. With such strong evidence of a harmful monopoly you'd think Canadians would be rioting in the street, but it seems most Canadians support keeping dairy quotas.
I dont understand why people are voting this up on hacker news. Seriously folks...
>It's amazing how people act like they have the "right" to post some content anywhere.

It's amazing how, every time a private organization is criticized for how it handles speech on its platform, some tedious rando jumps out of the woodwork to smugly lecture everyone about how private organizations don't have legal obligations to host anything.

Yes. We know. We know, we know, we know, we all know. The First Amendment does not apply. We are not saying that Google is legally required to do anything. We are saying that Google's behavior is not in the spirit of free speech and chills discourse. That's it. Can we take it as read that everyone's up to speed on this and move on without the pointless derail, please?
That's weird. I guess they like making money.
That is a perfectly valid argument for a fictional candidate. Trump's campaign is run by a white supremacist and repeatedly RT's neo-nazis. We should marginalize extremists with the national equivalent of hellbanning.

Well, the parts that relied out outside services hooked up via SSO were not demoed, but majority of it worked fine because demo server was misconfigured to not actually rely on the external services. It is pretty funny.
