Note that this is already happening. The only thing my proposal would change is that it would also affect servers that used to be authoritative for subdomains of such abandoned domains. I would expect there to be very few of them: very few domains have delegations of subdomains to a different DNS server and they are larger and thus less likely to be abandoned.
Fyi at this point there is speculation that something has happened with WikiLeaks, including Assange, who has not been seen for a week now since the early morning events at the Embassy (when his Internet was cut). Their subreddit has had their share of panic threads. Take this with a grain a salt, and I won't link to 4chan where this was first pointed out, but the last two days of tweets have also included typos/ missing letters that come close to spelling out "help him," overall to a small p-value.

Most buses in San Francisco are diesel. Some of them are diesel-electric hybrid, but they still noisily rev up their diesel motors when accelerating. Especially uphill.

Besides the noise right outside my window at midnight, from an empty bus, that regulations require to have the hydraulics to kneel and to pick up wheelchairs; I don’t like navigating around buses because they block the road with their bulk and their dangerous mass. I prefer to ride my bike to the train station.
I'm wondering whether it's possible to log IPs of attacking devices. From targets and from intermediaries. Then inform ISPs, and demand that they inform device owners. But yes, who would do that, and who would pay, are hard parts. Still, this was an expensive day for many providers.
There's a similar subject here with IAQ or indoor air quality. The experts have been saying it's far more serious than the effects of second hand smoke.

Truth: indoor air quality is for shit, and has always been shit, and it is slowly killing us by contributing to stroke, heart disease, cancers and respiratory disease.

People look at the smog in China and are shocked at the state of the air, as they ought to be.

However most people spend most of their time indoors. The concentration of pollutants in proximity to you is what is dangerous.

Indoor air quality in the average home is so bad that it easily exceeds the threshold at which health inspectors would shut down a restaurant.

If you want to live longer there is a few simple things you can do. If you have money, get an actual effective vent for your cooking area and obtain a HRV. If you don't have money acquire a selection of plants and put them into your kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Then ensure you open a window (using a directed fan if possible) when cooking.

If anybody wants more information I'll look up the videos on IAQ and NASA study confirming what I've been saying.
In what way are the wikileaks releases -- Not Assange, not their Twitter, but wikileaks releases -- not trustworthy?

Are any of the releases discredited?

Basically, because AT&T is paying more for Time Warner than the market had valued it at. As an example:

Company A has 50 billion dollars cash on hand, and their core business is valued by the market at 100 billion, so their market cap is 150 billion. Company B's core business is valued by the market at 25 billion and has no cash on hand, so their market cap is 25 billion.

Company A then purchases company B's core business for 50 billion dollars. Company A then has no cash on hand, their original 100 billion core business, and a new business that the market valued at 25 billion, so their new market cap is 125 billion (a 16.6% decrease).

Company B (or their stockholders, strictly speaking) on the other hand has 50 billion dollars in cash, and no core business, so company B now has a "market cap" of 50 billion dollars (100% increase).

More often than not, the market (i.e. those buying and selling the stocks) will assume that the company being acquired was correctly priced before the purchase and that the acquiring company overpaid.
Wikileaks only coin was trust, they've lost that as far as I can see therefore their time of usefulness is more or less over. I really don't see how they will regain it at this point, sometimes a fresh start is better.
Tips for the Nervous Presenter – Get those butterflies flying in formation
Depends on the team. If they're not experienced writing safe C++, I'd go with a safer language (e.g. Java) or teach them if that's not possible. But this also depends a lot on the project, usually it's the case that C++ is the only option available.

We can't start using any languages we want, we have to consider industry standards, resource availability and other constraints.
I think the article is making a valid point and your response is not the classic opposition but a more thoughtful sounding version of the taboo. :-)

Study of a average 5% statistical difference of a population would considered a valid scientific endeavour in many places yet a lot of people would only raise this criticism when applied to study of gender/race differences.
> what can wikileaks do that some other website can't?

No fear of going against the establishment. How many websites that you know of reveal such classified information and get wide press coverage for the same?

I don't fully understand Assange's political motivations, but the world is definitely better off with Wikileaks than without.
Nice story. I understand the point of the article, that there is such a thing as over-engineering. But as your story illustrates (and we can all attest to), there is also such a thing as under-engineering. I think the really insightful commentary is on which techniques typically fall into which category.
Idea:
As a writer, I want a platform to write a story that allows me to focus on the content instead of the formatting

Solution 1:
Build the platform using JavaScript. Do user research to come up with the best design. Hire a marketing team to receive a lot of attention and consecutively feedback on the platform. Hire data scientists to analyze the site traffic and decide which feature to add or not... in the end, through small cycles of feedback, continuously improve the platform and spend millions of dollars to come up with something very good after some time

Solution 2:
Use medium.com, because sometimes a rather complex idea can have a very simple solution.
None of their releases have been discredited. Focusing on personalities is a mistake.
In virtually every feature of every piece of software (or device, or product), some aspects will be over engineered, and some will be under-engineered. I think however, the point of the article was that often engineering "narcissism" gets in the way. But to some, that narcissism is just beautiful code or doing it "right". This article is hopelessly subjective, but makes its point clear enough.
Agreed, I think this is the biggest issue. Also you have to trust some random installer to put the binary...somewhere? Is it going to overwrite junk in /usr/local? Does it assume ~/.something is available? Does it require root and then try to stuff code into /etc? Does it work if the install directory has a space in it? What if there's a symlink somewhere in the path?

There's a million things that the script can do stupidly, and practically every single one has at least one assumption that is bad.

One trick I've learned is to edit the script before running it and prefix anything that looks dangerous with "echo" (because of course none of them ever support --dry-run). Then I can at least see what they are doing, what they are downloading, etc.

curl|sh is the bane of my existence. Shame on you if that's your only means of installing.
Why do they say their template system is simpler than JSX? You have to learn a whole lot of new stuff and syntax is barely readable. Whereas JSX is clear and you can use already familiar JavaScript.

The obsession with cars is part of the reason why the U.S. doesn't bother to come up with a better way to identify its citizens. Nearly everyone has a driver's license, so why use any other form of photo ID?

A good American just gets a license and buys a car.

From the little that I know, safety-relevant code might be modeled in a high-level language that generates C.
I don't work directly on safety-relevant features, but I'm sure there are other processes and practices in place.

Some bad news for you though: all automotive companies typically use the same tools and processes. Aviation is also like that. And they use a ton of C and C++.
If you have an IP address, you can determine what ISP it's been assigned to. And ISPs typically know which accounts had which IPs at any given time.
My private machine is an MBP and I like the feeling of the keyboard. So I bought a Cherry Clean Desktop, and it's a pretty good approximation of that MBP feeling. Slightly more force is needed, but only slightly.
Is this entirely about how Microsoft is using FPGAs for some of its own internal datacenter needs. In that case I can understand why Google might see ASICs as a better way to do the same thing.

Where I see FPGAs shining on the cloud is if vendors started putting them online so that clients could program them for their own applications. But I don't know enough about such things to know if there is yet a market for that.
They may not be discredited but you have to wonder what has been purposefully left out. Wikileaks as an institution depends very much on being perceived as a-political, simply a bunch of techies that will get your leaked documents out. Over the years they have shifted further and further to becoming a politically actve entity. Part of that is in response to the inevitable backlash to some of the released but that backlash was to be expected and the best way to deal with it would have been to ignore it.

Part of it may be because some of Wikileaks high value contacts are now in places where they are vulnerable (which adds weight to the call to Pardon Snowden, it would make it much easier for WL to release dirt on Putin and company, assuming they have any).

Assange set himself up to be easily corralled, not the smartest thing but he's not the first (and won't be the last) person that makes it into the limelight and ends up tripping up because of it.

Releases themselves can be independently verified, what data that is there that ends up labeled factually accurate is a great gift and I'm very happy they did what they did, however we will need more or other organizations like WL if we're to get the whole picture.

That would help in another way, you could immediately check for any modifications or selective withholding of information from the various sources.
That seems... weird.

What are you comparing them to in terms of feedback? Was it some bizarre switch like the cherry MX red?
Downtown SF, we pay $98 (€90), and speedtest just showed 89/6. I supposed it gives me TV as well and potentially a landline, but I don't have devices for that.

The annoying part is that I can't get Just Internet.
I feel it's probably been said before, but why are people investing time in a Javascript server side framework? It just seems ridiculous.

Edit: I can understand shipping logic from the server to client, for validation perhaps. But... meh.
You are missing the possibility of selective withholding of information and possible changes of the information leaked to suit a political end.

Focusing on personalities is a mistake when it comes to mere technical ability, but when it becomes a political question I think it is a valid concern.

At a minimum I'd like to see another outlet next to WL.

First release of VimR with NeoVim back end
In an enterprise sure you need it for rights management, but then that's not really related to what the client OS is, you can run MacOS or Windows clients largely equally well if you're not using AD to centrally manage them.
I mean, hopefully it is over HTTPS so they can't do anything with it...

DV certs only rely on you being able to reply to an HTTP request, so if any CA was using such a caching DNS server, you could probably get a valid cert from them.
JSX using JS for logic is both a boon and a curse. It is just as easy to shoot yourself in the foot and write some ugly imperative construction as writing an elegant template.

I wonder if we will ever have a satisfactory solution to the template problem of conditional rendering. All I've seen so far solved one problem only to bring another. To some degree, this is really a dogmatic problem, which is why it'd be nice if we could solve this and move on with more important things.
I mean, some organizations do take precautions against this point of failure and use a separate status domain. Most don't.

No, he's using Cherry keyboards from the 90's of early 2000's. Those are membrane so regular mushy keyboards.

Cherry is famous for the mechanical keys it produces but it still caught the membrane wave so it could be relevant in the 90s.
Sorry, but these two systems are incomparable because you just do not run any random train on the railway.

If you would like to find something that is comparable, I'll recommend to look for it related to the roads.

Try to imagine a situation were single private company owns all the roads (of one region), including all the highways and local roads and has also a bus company.
I think this tweet says more about Assange's vanity than anything else.

The motives of the attackers are much less interesting than the fact that such attacks are now possible.
I'm under the impression that you say self-hosted ~= dev-machine-hosted ?

If that's the case, i think you're misguided : imho, the internet as it was designed was conceived so that everyone has its little self-hosted thing, with dev-machine just for the purpose of, well, test and dev, with the latter goal of it being self-hosted.

Just look how email is technically designed and how it was meant to work, and we use it now, relying mostly on Gmail or Outlook, or worse, using Facebook for emails : we put all our eggs in the same basket.
But instead, we have rulings like this:

Because they believe that a single language should be enough for developing web applications.
Take off the caps and throw the rest of the keyboard away, what you have are likely worthless membrane keyboards, not the mechanical ones Cherry is famous for.

(When throwing away do of course break them open to see if there's actually a membrane there, if there's not then you might have Cherry blacks which some people do appreciate.)
As noted below, you need FCC or similar licences for wifi radio, why not something similar for the packers emitted.

Downside is that radio leakage licensing is fairly simple scientifically. Proving something is unhackable is harder ...
Vuejs is adding it's own tags to html like if and for. Which requires another DSL to learn when i use simple js(not advanced js) in react. Which leads me question if they are other tags to be learn to simply display components.

I also like my components to be tightly coupled. Having a template just for a single component is not useful I learnt that from my backbone js experience.

Declarative syntax is very good win for reactjs. Most can eaily understand the component code. It requires few basic life cycle to be learnt rest is just JavaScript.
I think what viraptor means by "aggregation point" is that you can scan other feeds via your inbox.

The simplest example of this is to put a "send me a message" form on your web site that will send you an email behind the scenes.
No, I'm not missing the selective withholding.

And no one has shown any change to released information. Not once.

Certbot defaults to a path on your system that requires root, and sets permissions so non-root users can't look at your private keys.

If you would like to use it without root/sudo, you can pass flags changing the directory it uses. For example:

Apart from the interesting taboos of race and sex, there is another interesting thing I've wanted to talk about.

I don't believe the left and right are recent inventions, I think it is biological. Both the left and right have their own taboos. Those taboos spring immediately into existence when a topic such as sex or race is brought up. You automatically see both sides lining up against each other.

This is very interesting!

We should be asking why do the left and right exist? Why is it so powerful and pervasive across all cultures and times?

My intuition tells me it is some sort of regulation mechanism, but I've never seen this subject discussed before.
Also possible in implementing such a system are a variety of accidents or abuses that may unfairly benefit or harm different groups. "Seeding" the central database from the existing patchwork of forms, licenses, decisions, databases and other records would be inherently messy and even a quasi-legal database could cause a bureaucratic nightmare once any process starts depending upon it.
I mainly disagree with the article.

Most over-engineered monstruosities I've seen in my career don't come from engineers trying to uber-optimize their solutions to a sick level, but from noob/unexperienced/dumb programmers trying to get something done.

Things like: methods with just one line of code (to call another method), classes that seem to be there just to satisfy some dubious OOP pattern, too many levels of error handling which can be simplified by just removing them and catch the exception in a single place of the program (at least in exception-based languages), too much 'public' elements in a class (justified by the programmer thinking: "just in case" someone needs to access them in the future), excessive interface use due to the (clueless)need of pedantic levels of unit testing, NIH-retards creating frameworks/ORMs/libraries for every single component their software needs (I even saw once a tech lead that replaced all uses of hashtables in the company by his own implementation which, hey, let you look for keys in a case-insensitive way!), choosing low-level languages to implement non-performance-critical software, and a big etcetera.
So going back to my question, you think wikileaks should be shut down?
Think about a world where every country has an embassy with an Assange in it, and document dumps like we've seen are a routine weapon in information warfare.

It's not a very nice world to imagine. The people who get hurt are ordinary citizens whose info winds up in these giant data drops.
What modulation scheme does this use?
I'm not so sure suing would help here, as who is suing who?

The people who bought the IoT devices probably don't even know that their device has been hijacked in a lot of cases and therefore have no incentive to sue the manufacturers.

The people being hit by the DDoS have a tricky attribution problem to prove which manufacturers are to blame and then the manufacturers could, in many cases, shift the blame to users who didn't read instructions/change default passwords/apply available security patches.

Also you have the problem of complex supply chain. A lot of the people selling these devices are just white-labelling someone else's product, so who's to blame there, the vendor or the ODM?

Lastly you have shrink-wrap style licenses that disclaim liability for flaws the the software market has been relying on for many many years to avoid any liability when their products misbehave...

Personally I don't see the market sorting this, its a classic case of negative externality where government regulation is the most appropriate way to rectify the problem
If what Assange and team are going through is any indication, the US Government has set a dangerous precedent in how it deals with people who go against the establishment, exposing it. They spin a narrative saying he broke certain laws, which is true, but doesn't explain how hard they are hitting Assange with behind the scenes activities to extradite him to the USA. The real motivation is to get back at Assange for publicly shaming the US Government on the world stage with various leaks.

> What will replace wikileaks?

Nothing, at least anytime soon. If wikileaks sticks to it's mission of opening Governments without the negative associations, as you said, that would suffice.
Wikileaks does not operate much differently from any other media organization: they take anonymous tips, they publish them, they work with others to sensationalize their findings, they have internal biases, and they likely are beholden to whoever is financing or supporting them. If Wikileaks went away, it would be bad, but not much different than if any other news gathering and distributing service went away.
It doesn't matter how "secure" a password is if it's known. Quite a few vendors ships devices with a common factory password, stated in the manual. And people put those on ther internet.
Back in the day. i used an Orange contract nokia 8310 ir modem and the free phone 0800 number that came with BT internet to give my laptop intenet.

What's your source that you "experience an outage maybe once a year" ??

I work in IT infrastructure and I see attacks literally every day, moreover, most people just setup a quick LAMP or MEAN stack to prove their concept, and then they leave it like that, so most of the time, no, the problem don't just "work itself out".
