That's assuming the distributor warranted you against vulnerabilities in his product (and I remember seeing a "Distro X GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY" on every device I've used...). Forcing said warranty is preposterous.

Concerning smartphones there are so many privacy and security issues that are far easier to exploit than something that involves kernel hacking... But anyway, isn't Google rolling out security updates for Android? I use CM and I know they don't. There are projects like Replicant which provide a mostly free distribution, but I don't think they're rolling out security updates either. If you're interested maybe contact them?
I also have trypophobia.

Honestly, did you expect a reply from Google? Have you ever had one?

Even people I was friendly with on forums or social networks that were employees for Google (or Microsoft for that matter, or both in one occasion) stopped responding when I mentioned anything from "heads up (since there is no contact listed for product x): there's a bug here, you might wanna forward that" to "do you know why this is that way?" It's a really weird experience. I've stopped trying to contact tech giants that are too big to care about an individual.

Wonder how long it will take for someone to jail break that hardware and hack up some v0.0.1alpha open source self-driving software for it. Not saying it would be wise, but it seems like the kind of thing people traditionally do for "locked up hardware, with software-enable coming in the future" (see gaming consoles, routers, etc).
There really is no financial reason on any side to keep the proprietary single platform console hardware for game releases. Nintendo would certainly (as demonstrated by Pokemon Go) make ludicrously more revenue if their games were on all platforms rather than just their own. Because nothing their hardware does is useful. They make nice peripherals (Wiimote, whatever the tablet for the Wii U) which could easily have (and often do) have driver support everywhere else already.

So what are you getting out of a Nintendo console? Lackluster proprietary software and crippled low powered hardware. Not a compelling offer to pretty much anyone, so they use their software to prop up the hardware and lose out on dramatically more software sales to maintain a dead hardware business.

If this console were just an Android handheld / console switcher device it would be immensely more successful.

Sure. I am mostly wondering about the demographics of Tesla owners. My guess would be that people who own Tesla cars tend to live in similar areas, with comparable lifestyle.
There is also the case of driving style. I doubt there are people that tend to drive like my grandmother, and I would assume that a variety of driving style is important as well.

All I'm saying is that the claim of N million miles should be taken with a grain of salt as long as you do not know the entropy that these miles contain.
Not surprising at all. This is all very rational actually.

The idea is this: Nigeria is a common place for such online scams. It is so well known, that only the most gullible and unaware people would believe and respond to the emails. And, guess what kind of people the scammers are looking for ...

Using a different place runs the risk of getting too many responses with a high percentage of those who are smart enough to soon quickly realize it is scam, so now scammers wasted their time on that.

They'd rather use bad English, really stereotypical phrases and so on. It is a good filter.
I'm skeptical of ET that:
1.) Is stupid enough to broadcast to a big, unknown universe
2.) Is alive and technologically capable at the same time we are
3.) That we're going to be around and looking to the skies for very long, relatively speaking.

Personally I find some version of the Great Filter hypothesis very compelling.
If you scan alcohol in a self checkout lane, you get a message to wait for a store assistant to validate your ID before you can continue. If the customer doesn't ring the alcohol... that's a different story.
It's all bullshit anyhow because it doesn't matter what your execs put down as the company values if your manager has different ideas. And everyone knows there's a cold chance in hell they'll be held responsible unless they're already out to get them. If your publicized values take a backseat to other things they're not really your values.

"We value honesty" in your company values but you'd better not "rock the boat". I've had "have fun and play" or something to that extent in my company values but had the exec I reported up to present that then in the very next slide say "That's good for the company but really no, that doesn't apply to our group." I've had "Always be continuously improving" and had a direct manager say "what is that shit anyway? I don't buy it" about it. You might ask why someone would disagree with something that's so blandly uncontroversial and it turns out that you need to be okay with admitting that there's room for improvement and that's not compatible with carefully crafted slide decks talking about how awesome we were. As you can imagine technical debt was left unchecked until something caught fire. And after a couple years of that kind of management there's pretty much always a fire.
Unfortunately that was a management decision rather than technical decision!
Sustainability concerns?
So you reckon Trump has no skeletons? And even if he doesn't, I think it's clear he would be child's play to manipulate. Basically if the intelligence community is as corrupt as you suspect, you're in trouble who ever wins the election.
I am not trying to start a flame war, just curious why the 2 jokes about Russian hackers being the origin of breaches are being heavily downvoted. I would assume people think they aren't clever or funny, but hopefully not because they disagree that Russia seems to be the catch-all scapegoat right now.

Some bias exists probably in every dataset.

Now the interesting things is that from what culture roam this dataset was acquired from considering that operating markets of Yahoo are US, Europe, Japan?

Does it resemble demographics of these markets? Or does it represent the desires of these markets?

More importantly is there are a good validation set of subtle examples of something being NSFW and SFW? Especially considering that the subject is mostly defined as I do not know to how to define it I definitely know it when I see it.
The problem with lines could be solved instead by re-instituting the original meaning of express lanes. It used to be under ten items, then 10-11 items. Now the store I shop at says "about 15 items" to avoid doing any actual counting. Today I was buying a single item and all the self-checkout machines were in use. So I go into the express lane with two people ahead of me. Not only was one of the customers buying more than 15 items, they BOTH paid with a personal check!

Limit the express lane to strictly 11 items or less and only accept cards and cash (or even cards only) and it will move quicker than the self-service machines.

I wasn't able to read the WSJ article due to paywall but I read another probably similar piece. At what point would or should Booz Allen Hamilton lose their "preferred contractor status" with the NSA? I mean this is the second one that we at least know about. Perhaps the NSA should rethink hiring contractors?
I found the title of this article misleading — clickbaity. "Fired" suggests that Snoopy did something that cost him his job. The company changed direction, and Snoopy was no longer needed.

Snoopy was laid off, or rightsized, or something. Not fired.

Ask HN: Why Not NativeScript Instead of React Native?
It seems like there is more hype about React Native than NativeScript. Is there something inherently wrong with NativeScript? If you are going to say that React is inherently better than Angular 2, can you please give specific reasons why. Also, please don't compare React to Angular 1, since I am wondering about NativeScript with Angular 2 specifically. Thanks!
That is true and a good use case for fail2ban. Useless was probably a strong word, what I really meant was of limited utility in increasing the security of the SSH service.

Two years ago, I added a friend on to my phone plan so that he could call his sick mother. I made it clear to Telus (my carrier) that he should not be able to modify the account or discuss account details with them, and they assured me that he wouldn't without both my PIN and express permission to add him to the account administrators list. Three months later he walked into a Telus store and got a new iPhone with a 2 year contract on my plan. When he stopped paying what he owed, guess who got stuck with the early termination fee?
Simple really, joke that is not adding anything to the discussion is not appreciated here.

Put another way, when I look at the McMansions at 10 on the scale, it looks to me like the kind of output you get when you just feed a bunch of pictures of houses into a neural network without feeding in any of the cultural or aesthetic context. Things like the large garages and roofs look like the efforts of constraint solvers working with inputs that are out of bounds.

In a sense, that is exactly what happened.
Kodak sold their last DSLR a decade ago. Which is a shame, because they were the ones that pretty much invented the field.
I am always blown away by how eerily similar these generated NN images are to the visuals experienced under psychedelic drugs. Moreso than any artist's depiction (and there have been plenty of those)... they just have the same "feel". Which of course leads one to the inescapable idea that there is a fundamental relationship here.
They did not discover the breach, it was reported to them.

She does talk about quality of materials in other posts in addition to the failure to use / design / construct with those cheaper materials.

She's a hysterical writer. Highly recommend poking around her site for a bit. She's changed the way I look at real estate.
The original comment suggested that this should be illegal, and the reply, as I interpreted it, asked on what grounds. I can see on reflection we're discussing different issues (i.e. I've taken the comment trail as a normative discussion, rather than a technical one).

Sustainability concerns seem like a valid ethical reason to create laws and attempt to minimise things like this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12742974

Calm your horses. Generative nonsense have been already explored in literature in 90s. So for me it does not produce any new feeling.

If you remember, the US intelligence community was hardly convinced that WMDs existed in Iraq. This was one of the most contentious things about the lead-up to the war. Many high-ranking officials lost their jobs because their organizations were not producing intelligence that confirmed the "Saddam has WMDs" narrative for the administration. Cheney essentially set up his own small intelligence organization that was distinct from the CIA, DIA, etc. in order to scrounge up smoking guns that the administration thought the rest of the US intelligence community was failing to locate.
Hey. I work on security for Angular.

> It's probably possible to sanitize all external inputs used in the browser extension such that privilege escalation isn't possible, but the Angular team has tried hard with their sandbox solution with no success. Extension developers will hardly do much better, so it makes sense for Mozilla to ban the whole library.

AngularJS runs expressions that are in your page's HTML when it initializes (or when you explicitly call angular.bootstrap on an element), but only on the page where it is loaded. If an extension uses Angular within the extension, that's perfectly fine, security wise. Unless the developer explicitly requests it, pages visited cannot move code into an extension's context (which would be dangerous in any case, Angular or not).

Even when the developer explicitly moves data from a web page into the extension context, this does not cause a security issue, even when the data ends up in the DOM. Once loaded, Angular does not revisit the DOM to run expressions in it (otherwise all Angular pages would be compromised). Care has to be taken when using things like ng-bind-html, but the security profile for an extension is the same as a regular web page here. With Angular's $sce service and automatic escaping/sanitizing, it's actually reasonably easy to write safe web applications that properly escape user input.

All of this is unrelated to the expression sandbox. The sandbox was never intended to be a security feature, but rather a feature to keep developers from shooting into their own foot (e.g. by creating global variables). It was considered to be defense-in-depth mechanism for a while, but it turns out it is at best misleading for users who believe it protects them. That is why we removed it.
> In my opinion, the fully autonomous vehicles shouldn't need to handle those situations. Leave that up to the human to navigate.

This will make driving in those conditions even more dangerous. If people start relying on self driving cars, their driving skills will deteriorate. If computer can't drive the car safely, rusty driver won't do better job.

It depends on why you wouldn't give a user sudo. If you're worried that they might get bored and do an immature prank, or do something ill-advised (like changing the root password, or giving sudo to someone else) and render the system insecure/inoperable/unmaintainable, you probably can give them shell access. A good example here would be giving shell access to employees or the like, if their job is aided by it. The time and effort it takes to research a privesc vuln is usually sufficient to deter them, and if it isn't, you just revoke access and fire them if they do it.

If you're worried that someone might be trying to deliberately compromise your security, you can't give that person the ability to run code on your system.
Why no OIS? It should be very useful considering the longer focal length and smaller maximum aperture.. The slower lens is understandable though.
I always do self-checkout at Home Depot. It usually works perfectly, and when the attendants have to scan something large or a by-foot cut of something, it's usually quick.

At grocery stores, it's a different story entirely. Buying 3 things? Doesn't matter, you'd better put your bag in the "packing area" before scanning anything because it'll stop working when you try to pack something. Or pack it into the bag as you scan? Nope, it'll stop working. It does however make me appreciate the considerable number of memorized vegetable and loose-weight codes the cashiers remember.

Maybe the wage savings offset the shoplifting costs.
That is the key insight here, particularly when you see what other branded gadgets this Bullitt Group have, Kodak have just become a brand name that can be licensed by third parties. There is no connection to the Kodak we know, impetus came from outside.

It seems that Bullitt can innovate, their camera-phone for Caterpillar has some thermal imaging aspect to it. Here I think they have gone for nostalgia with the name and form factor rather than innovation. There certainly is no leveraging of Kodak's patent portfolio going on or anything truly new brought to the product, a decent interface with a few more advanced settings is expected.

I think an opportunity was missed here. Kodak made photography accessible and easy, that could have been the thing here with an auxiliary camera that worked with someone's phone to bring decent zoom and optics to them. They could have also made the camera double up as a recharging brick so there would be reason to always have it with you. If it also had USB-C storage for your device with cloud backup and some VSCO service for the pictures then it could work.

The first Kodak digital cameras for the pro-sumer market had a programming language that you could use to get the camera to do things. You could get it to work out the height of a building by focusing on the top and then the bottom - it would do the trig for you, fantastic. Maybe a Kodak camera could revisit this and make it work for the IoT connected world, so the Kodak camera could be set up to do ad-hoc CCTV, timelapse and other things. Or just a remote camera for taking selfies, a market could be made for that even if the product was sold on doing super clever stuff. Instead there is this nostalgia trip.
