Here in the midwest we have a lot of houses that wound not qualify as McMansions at all, but that are just as car dependent as a huge McMansion: There is no town to go to, or if there is, the area around it is full of incredibly expensive houses.

At the same time, I could build something as architecturally catastrophic as those McMansions in SF, clashing with every house around it,but then you have no car dependency. So ultimately your argument is that entire swaths of the US are distasteful by default.

Car dependence today has more to do with city planning than anything else. The density that would make an area walkable isn't just hard to find, but downright illegal. The smallest allowed lot for a single family house around here would fit 4 houses in The Mission, San Francisco.

Here race politics came into play, and everyone made cars mandatory to stop black people, who were poorer and couldn't afford bigger houses or cars, to move into suburbs. When everyone had a car, the town center dies, as the small stores can't compete with driving a little bit farther to the bigger store. This means that even neighborhoods with small houses that are grandfathered in are not walkable, as the places you'd walk to are gone. A friend of mine lives in a 1 bedroom bungalow with no yard. He parks on the street. And yet, he has a single business in a 20 minute walking trip.

So don't look at just houses then, look at cities. The midwest is full of McCities.
Wow, less dead than I thought they were. I too hope Zen gives them some lift.
I wonder id its worth to learn all those cutting edge libraries now, because whatever code I write today maybe outdated next month and I'll have to learn yet another framework/library/syntax etc.
I used to work in telco (in another country) and it's a difficult line to tread. 95% of customers have no idea what their 4 digit PIN was so you have to identify them other ways, and not being able to access their account is the kind of thing that pisses even legitimate customers off (which is why it's so easy to take advantage of).

Our company's policy was "if they don't know the PIN you have to connect them to the call centre and have them verify for you" but customers are rarely impressed to be handed a phone to the overseas call centre.

I know I got it wrong at least once.
...if everyone is just in constant ass-covering-defense-mode, things like these will just either never happen or the cost will go through the roof.

This is basically every USA public project, and it forms a vicious circle. Because some highway was built some time with an inadequately-compacted roadbed, highway inspectors have to sign off on the compaction of every quarter-mile of roadbed. Because highway inspectors can never be fired, they all eventually succumb to the "inspect from the pickup truck" method. Because inspectors are nominally responsible for quality control, no road builder can ever be held accountable for inadequately compacted roadbed.

The result is that vehicles with inadequate dampening often leave the road surface entirely at e.g. each end of every interstate bridge.

The thing is though, the US was by far the best nation at this just 50 years ago. The interstate system, the moon landing, Bell Labs, Xerox Parc, MIT... the US is still basically running on top of these efforts from back then.

These projects were completed by the Greatest generation, managed without pity by the Lost generation. When we again have generations so well prepared by their formative experiences to work as they did, perhaps we'll have more successful giant centralizing projects like that. If world wars are the price of such abilities, one might rather we did without.

You're thinking too hard.
It's my business in the sense that I can have an opinion about how ugly their house is and I do. There's nothing more to it. It's not like I think McMansions should be illegal because they are ugly, although I don't see what's fundamentally unjust about a community not wanting eyesores in their neighborhoods if enough McMansion haters congregated in one place. There are other reasons why they suck that a sibling comment mentioned.

I don't believe just because aesthetics involve personal preferences that we can't discuss them and come to common conclusions regarding the good and the bad. Aesthetics are very important to me as a programmer, for example, and I am an unhappy programmer if I cannot write pretty code for whatever reason. I certainly wouldn't want to be a programmer if I couldn't write pretty code as often as I do. Crunch time hurts me twice: the extra work, but also the resource constraints that mean I have to satisfy beauty in code. If I didn't care about what is beautiful and what is not, I would feel like a very flat person. If that makes me an asshole then, well, I mean I wouldn't disagree.
In terms of appsec, we run quarterly black box pen tests and annual comprehensive white box pen tests with well regarded firms, and have been rotating vendors on a regular basis for diversity. We also do a lot of stuff internally, like regular scanning, and internal sprints focused on vuln detection. We've been doing this for years. That's not to say we're perfect (we clearly are not) but we do take it seriously.

Wonder if they would interested in an idea to sell an AMD CPU/GPU to every gamer with a laptop, hint: it's not a TB2 external GPU on a PCIe bus.
That's actually a brilliant point.

But I'll bet their response would be to protect themselves and nobody else 'in the name of national security'.
As much as I like the idea, from the side profile it looks like it'd be really difficult to carry around in a back pocket and could snag on the lens bump when trying to put it back in a pocket.
It's great to hear a success story. Kudos to the GitLab team.
Not that I disagree, but to be fair, its way easier to drill into a mountain than it is to drill under people's homes.
Security is hard. It is very possible to take it seriously, do many things right (perhaps everything right, insofar as it's in your power), and still have your company end up in a headline like this.

You can parameterize your queries until you're blue in the face, but that won't help you if the right employee is phished (for example). This is an inherently imperfect and chaotic world, and it's unrealistic to assume that you're insulated from these scenarios just because you locked down database access correctly.

Personally, I believe David when he says Weebly takes security very seriously.
Then why not directly complain about those?

If you're getting out of school after undergrad, the variance in your career trajectory 5 years after graduation is so large it is difficult to predict which industry, if any, you'll be in. I'd give you a 90% chance you're in the same country you are currently in, 30% chance you're in grad school, 30% chance you're in the same industry, 30% chance you've switched industries, and 10% chance you're a stay-at-home parent.

I'm sorry to see you get down voted, but I share your sentiments and agree that it was something that could be reasonably called a conspiracy.

I as well gravitate toward Vue.js for its simplicity, but I wonder if React's mind share and community size "trump" simplicity. For example, if you're hiring for a front-end position, you'll probably get more candidates familiar and experts in React over Vue.js.

While it's true that vendor drivers living in kernel space is horrible for security... that's somewhat offtopic here. This particular bug is in the memory management system, which is one of those things that kind of has to be in the kernel. A microkernel architecture seemingly would not have helped in this particular case.

It's funny how racial bias always comes out in discussion about NN. It all depends on the training data and that's all there is to it. Yet somehow, some people tend to blame the models or the programmers for not correcting this "bias" that is not "supposed" to be there.
WhoisGuard is a service from NameCheap. Unless otherwise specified, I wouldn't assume that it would be available to domains registered through other registrars.

It also replaces the owner's name with WhoisGuard, which is IMO inferior to the way Gandi does whois privacy.
With respect to your first inquiry, we have no way to know.

With respect to your second question, yes. Tesla does aim to eventually have a fully autonomous SDC, and have stated it innumerable times.
Weebly's team made the conscious decision to use security protections like bcrypt hashing on passwords, and they've been doing that for a long time (years). They're well aware of security best practices, and that did not come out of work with an incident response team for discovery.
> By definition, browser extensions need to be able to access things such as page content. What would stop someone from writing a extension that captures your bank credentials? Nothing.

Completely agreed. This is why it's so frustrating that all of the browser vendors have moved to this, "gut every minor option/feature possible, people can just get an extension" attitude.

For Firefox:

* removing the option to not maintain download history

* removing the option for the compact drop-down menu from the URL bar

* forcing tabs on top

* forcing refresh button to the right-hand side of the interface

For Chrome:

* removing backspace navigation (you may dislike it, but others don't)

* disabling middle-click to scroll on Linux

* removing the option to set your new tab page (eg to about:blank)

* not letting you prevent HTML5 video autoplay

* not letting you disable WebRTC

Just the backspace extension alone requires basically carte blanche access to everything just to be able to insert a tiny Javascript function to catch the keypress.

I'm not asking for us to go back to the Mozilla suite with integrated mail client, news reader, etc. Just ... it's okay to have an "advanced options" section that lets us control some of this really simple, really basic stuff. And not only okay, a major security benefit to do so. All the focus on web security, you'd think they'd take this stuff more seriously.
While I agree the two are different, I also think in weeks case accounts could translate into multiple users. I know for a fact that my wife and her sister both share a weebly account for their business and I believe they have to share a login to do this.
Since they don't mention the sensor size I assume it will be barely bigger than that of an average smartphone. So I expect the image quality to be underwhelming. There was the Lumix CM1 and it wasn't a huge hit so I don't know why this would sell well since it doesn't look like it's doing anything better.
The thing is that most React developers don't actually think React is that complex at all.
Simplicity means that you don't need a framework-specific expert.

Something like this will only work if your clients don't screw it up by spamming the same targets over and over.

If you can somehow get it through to your clients that they should only ever spam one target once, then hell, I'm for it.

Oops. Sorry. Get busy and forget the check replies.

I haven't used it, but yeah, it's better left as an additive, and it's definitely pricey. Adding it to protein bars is a fantastic idea. Nuts' products are a bit on the expensive end sometimes, but they sometimes carry hard to find items in bulk.

I do very little web these days, mostly working on backend data processing, network I/O and distributed comms.

A bit over a year ago, I wanted a real-time web UI to visualize some of the data I had on server-side, which I was trying to do using SignalR. I went back through some of the popular frameworks, with a pretty simple mindset of "Can I read the 'getting started', and get something basic working in about 15 minutes?".

I ended up choosing Vue, mainly because it used simple objects for models and I could literally just pass stuff I got from SignalR directly into it and have it show up. Almost everything else I tried had some type of wrapper/proxy around the data, which meant you had to run through some mapping exercise to get models working. I was close to deciding on Mithril, but when I found vue it just clicked with me way more. I actually really wanted to do React, but Vue was just so much more approachable that I couldn't justify spending the extra time learning React.

The real test however came months later, when I went to modify and add more functionality to my simple debug UI. I was able to pick it up nearly instantly, and even made some fairly substantial changes.

Contrast to my experience with say, Ember. We have a big app written in Ember, and every time I try to do even what I think should be a simple change (after not touching it for months), it takes me 5 times longer than I thought, and I end up spending most of the time fighting with it before realizing I forgot one of the 5 places you have to modify to reference an additional dependency, or some other equally trivial but infuriating detail.

You can learn the basics of Vue in minutes, and be quite adept within hours of it. That's something not a lot of frameworks can claim, and it's a seriously underrated benefit.

As others have pointed out, mounting read-only wouldn't have helped here.

What would have helped:

* Block ptrace() syscall using seccomp.

* Don't mount /proc, or mount it read-only.

As I understand it, those steps would close all attack vectors for this bug.

FWIW, the Sandstorm.io sandbox blocks ptrace() and doesn't mount /proc at all, so I think the bug has never been exploitable by Sansdtorm apps. (Disclosure: I am the tech lead of Sandstorm.)

I think Docker now defaults to mounting /proc read-only and blocking ptrace(), so it may mitigate this vulnerability as well, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
I did a similar thing except I converted the QR codes to unicode-art and saved them in a GPG encrypted file. It's probably not as safe as hardcopies in a safe, but it's more convenient (and it was fun reading QR codes out of a terminal window).

Authy makes me a little nervous (since it's closed source and I can't be sure exactly what they are doing), but at least they claim to encrypt the keys on the phone before they put them on their servers. They state on their site repeatedly that if you forget your encryption password the keys are gone and they can't do anything about it.
My point is really about the impossibility of proving a universal negative. Russell's Teapot is instructive here.

In a perfect world companies would recognize and react to security breaches almost as soon as they happen. But if you have ever managed the logging pipeline or incident response practice for a company, you understand that this is deeply unrealistic.

There is virtually no company which discovers that it has been breached within a short period of time - the nature of a security breach is such that it doesn't generally become apparent until some time later. This pattern continually plays itself out with just about every large breach you can think of.

In that respect, considering Weebly actually hashed their passwords with bcrypt and is reacting to the breach in the same year, they're fairly far ahead of the curve on this one.
Given that I've never been in Grisons, but I heard it only from YT, I would say that it's not very close with Sardo.

I can understand them though, but mostly because I know Italian. (Romansh also sounds to me somewhat Portuguese and Slavic at the same time, it's a very cool language).
There's something that irks me about incorporating logic into templates. UI development is hard enough without having to bounce between js and templates to figure out how a component is actually going to behave. I haven't used Vue or React, so this is all just my gut speaking, but at least with React all the logic is there in front of you.

In my mind, if there's a loop or a conditional or whatever piece of logic that decides what will actually show up, that should happen where the underlying data/models is actually built, and whatever acts as the view just spits it into place.

I'm still a scrub when it comes to web and UI development, so I may be speaking out of inexperience.

Am I missing something?
