Fiddler is great. Hadn't heard of NetRipper. Will take a look, thanks.

Also worth considering is Microsoft Message Analyzer, which used to be Network Monitor (NetMon). https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/MessageAnalyzer/

Edit: I should add that this isn't an endorsement, just another option. I only included MMA as a side-note in my recent book. I focussed on Wireshark and Fiddler to keep things simple.

I still dont understand how this was not "fixed" years ago, sure some config windows have fixed widths because it makes sense, but something as a terminal obviously needs the ability to grow (or shrink), especially after they introduced sticky windows and people actually used "tiling"
Microsoft are taking Apple's approach!
I had similar idea to your and found no solution to problem of copy-pasting. Good problem sets are hard to create but their solutions are easy to copy. Moreover, this is the good practice to try to solve solution locally, then copy-paste solution to target server.

I hope, you will find a solution for that.
VW has long suffered from very low levels of productivity. According to Bloomberg, they employ as many people as Toyota and GM combined while making half as many cars as the combined entity.

Part of the problem are the unions and a large ownership stake by the state, which is naturally not very interested in having their constituent lose their jobs.
The weird thing was that Powershell for Mac doesn't do this.
I agree it's annoying¹, but I wouldn't call it a show-stopper. I have resorted to Out-File -Encoding <foo> wherever I need file output.

_________________

¹ The redirection syntax cannot easily accommodate an encoding, so in general you cannot really use it everywhere anyway. I often need to use the system's legacy codepage instead of Unicode, so UTF-8 by default would be just as useless there. GCJ, however, could just accept text in any common encoding instead of insisting on ASCII. Detecting UTF-16 isn't hard, even though common Unix tools tend to treat it as arbitrary binary data instead of text.

Generally I'd say > is a convenience feature more than an actually useful construct, at least in a shell like PowerShell. On Unix-likes > simply dumps bytes since that's what the shell is built around. For PowerShell you could just as well say you'd dump CLIXML instead, since the shell works with objects. Since you have a few valid options you could either try to shoehorn them into the syntax, either with various funny characters

Get-Data > data-as-utf8.txt
Get-Data >@ data-as-clixml.xml
Get-Data >% data-as-utf16.txt
...

or add another expression somewhere

Get-Data > data-as-utf8.txt,[Text.Encoding]::Utf8

all of which are options I'd say don't really fit into PowerShell, nor should they be entertained. Does it really matter whether the last part of a pipeline is a redirection operator or just a terminating command that writes the data to a file? Conceptually I'd say having the pipeline end in a pipeline element instead of something entirely else is preferable since it reduces the number of distinct concepts.
I didn't mean to imply that. I just explained why ezjail looks so convoluted to a new user. Ezjail still solves the same problems today as it did 10 years ago. On the other hand since not even bloatware did keep up with storage cost decreases users can afford more comfortable trade-offs today.

I was there, and then one of my friends died, which triggered me to quit my job, which ultimately led to me being able to get enough mental acumen back and make good decisions to lead myself out of the hole I'd dug myself into.

Over 15 months before I was capable of getting myself back into the workforce properly. Fortunately I have very understanding family who let me live with them rent free, and had saved enough that I was able to do this. Not everyone is this fortunate.

There is auto-complete support. I just tested it (not a powershell user myself), and it seems pretty intelligent.

For example, if you type

dir | sort <TAB>

it suggests Attributes, BaseName, CreationTime, .... All properties of file objects (which is what dir returns).

Also there is PowerShell ISE, which is a IDE for powershell, but I haven't really tried it yet.

My coworker doesn't "believe" in global warming, but i have some sympathy on the lack of belief.

I know that for most topics i make uninformed decisions based on the information created/curated by intelligent people. Eg, global warming, vaccinations, etcetc. Sure, some of it may seem obvious, but lets be honest - i have no clue about what a vaccination does in the body, nor how climate change works. They're not school-yard topics, i'm a moron when it comes to them.

So, i play the numbers and base my understanding on a large consensus of educated people. As with the case of climate change. My coworker believes roughly the same, but unfortunately he chooses to believe "scientists who revoke climate change". He has some weird things to say, but ultimately he is doing the same thing as me.

The only thing that bothers me on this subject, is we both believe in green energy, reducing pollution, and etcetc. We have basically the same opinions on what we should be doing for the environment (reducing pollution/etc) and how important it is. Yet, he still believes it is a hoax. That part i don't understand.

Why would climate change be a hoax? Who is making money off of a "climate change hoax"? I don't get that part.. hell, part of the problem with green energy was that it didn't exist because no one was making money off it.

Anyway, /rant. All i mean to say is that people on other sides of the fence likely aren't all that different than you.. well, unless you're a researcher in the field of climate change, of course.

Older versions could resize the window with a drag, but the underlying buffer required a menu option, which was very awkward.

In Win10, you can resize the buffer with a drag as well.
It's not compatible at the syntax level, but it will also not break anything either. Batch files written for CMD will still be executed by CMD, not PowerShell. Unless you have an application that prompts the user to open a command prompt and then send keystrokes there to run commands, nothing will be broken here.
Your coments about the application workflow are very true. And I think this strengthens my argument that it is hard for open source software to enter this market. The cosultants/companies that implement these systems for hospitals would have to get together to push open source. And I guess hat it would be very hard to find enough open source developers with the domain specific knowledge. This points to a development style with a single company behind such a software. These companies are often not as "open-sourcey" when it comes to documentation as "real" open source projects. And this would make it less interesting for the above mentioned consultants/companies to band together to push open source because only that single company that mainly develops the software and does consulting for it, would profit.

My comments on software validation were perhaps not as clear as I would have liked them to be. Of course the regulators are not looking at every line of code. It would have to be the buyer that would have to look at that documentation, so that everything is in order when an FDA inspection occurs (if at all). And maybe it is wishful thinking that the developers should take validation into account while developing, because you can only do so much with an operational/functional qualification on site.
Perhaps I am thinking that way because I am looking at it from the perspective of a research organization that develops some of its software in house (workflow!). Companies contracting with us certainly do want to see the validation documentation that was produced during development.
> they don't seem to be able to use it well

Or they are intentionally dialing back on the accuracy.

Being too accurate in your advertising is like delving into the uncanny valley of CGI. It gets spooky and makes people intentionally shy away from your products.

So, perhaps they're following the same trajectory as CGI: adding intentional inaccuracy to mask their actual targeted ads. If I saw the one thing I wanted in a lineup of four other poorly targeted ads, I'd be less likely to consider it as spooky, and more likely to treat it as I would any other advertisement. These companies follow you around the internet for years, after all. They can afford to play a long game.

Or it's just my tinfoil hat. Either way.

In other words, you believe that Kaspersky OS has its place and future market?

> Anything IoT needs a full network stack at least ...

My point really is, every IoT device would need only its part of the full network stack, not all the protocols currently implemented in, say, Linux, and chances are, some device will require extremely reduced subset of the network stack, especially at the lower layers and with respect to kernel interaction.

I am not a verification expert, but verifying a very reduced subset of a well-defined specs seems at least feasible -- how would we verify something open-ended? Those pesky little theorems would become much more general and would come in even greater numbers?

Verifying a generic OS, good for all devices and all application, if at all doable from theoretical standpoint, looks too much of work for no particular profit for the verifier (very similar to the validation of the Linux kernel which is relayed on to the distro builders).

I wouldn't be as pessimistic either about the hardware vendors. After all, (some of them) already use formal verification in (some of) the silicon design, and verifying closer to the silicon seems simpler -- the closer to the metal the less genericity (assuming the verified silicon underneath).

I do not understand why this is even a discussion, either folks are being disingenuous on purpose, or maybe it is truly a matter of not understanding how it works.

Any data on iCloud which is not encrypted (for example: webmail) or Apple servers (example: Activation information) can definitely be requested by LE. This is a known fact, and as Apple has the data they are required by law to hand it over upon getting a proper subpoena for it. Whether they should be retaining those logs is another matter and can surely be debated.

With regards to iCloud data, the Keychain as well as a great deal of the stored data is now encrypted addditionally by your device passphrase. This is new, and was not the case for the SB iPhone 5c, for what it is worth.
Compare it with cmd.exe's dir
Precisely, but my point is that it would be good for any capitalist to consider as many objects as property as possible, for the purpose of claiming rights on that property. The fact that it's not actually property (which I agree with) is irrelevant. If the government were to agree on this point, great. But capitalists don't just throw up their arms and go home.

Capitalism has no regard for philosophies such as libertarianism. It crushes everything or finds a way.
Gmail tags don't map cleanly on to IMAP folders. The abstraction is leaky especially for backup/restore.
Well, I knew someone would eventaully ask this... I should have addressed it in my orginal comment. I kind of hinted at it.

"I'm a big fan of using the least restrictive (and most effective) means to achieving those goals."

That is perhaps the best reason to follow my recommended course. Another reason is simply opportunity cost. Society faces many challenges, and we can't pursue every possible solution to all of them, so it is best to focus first on the best options that are likely to have the greatest impact on the highest priority problems. For the problems noted above, the solution I proposed is more likely in my estimation to have a greater impact, and at a lower cost.
I'm guessing he meant to link to this one about paid promotions leading to mostly fake likes and views from click farms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVfHeWTKjag

> When I paid to promote my page I gained 80,000 followers in developing countries who didn't care about Veritasium (but I wasn't aware of this at the time). They drove my reach and engagement numbers down, basically rendering the page useless.

> I thought I would demonstrate that the same thing is still happening now by creating Virtual Cat (http://www.facebook.com/MyVirtualCat). I was surprised to discover something worse - false likes are coming from everywhere, including Canada, the US, the UK, and Australia. So even those carefully targeting their campaigns are likely being duped into spending real money on fake followers. Then when they try to reach their followers they have to pay again.

This is so much better - instead of people chasing latest management gossip, constantly looking over their shoulder and looking for other jobs, we don't hire unless it's necessary (ie regulatory requirements).

Compared to having 2-3 random firing rounds per year when it was semi-random (even the best of the team were let go because they didn't have currently running long term project), morale is much higher (random meant you come in the morning like every other day, suddenly during day there is interview with your line manager and HR, then you have 5 mins to take your stuff from desk and are escorted by security out, and that's it)
Agreed. Corporations exist only to seek profit, it is indeed the executive staffs duty to do so, there should be a law of economics that states: "With every corporate action, there exists a profit motive”
From personal experience as a DBA: the effort usually consists of not deleting rows out of the database. The expense is a few cents a month for gigabytes of data.

Worst case scenario, the companies will simply set up a separate data warehouse style data store, and make it available to anyone who wants it internally. If we as consumers are lucky, they will scrub the data of PII before moving it to the data warehouse.

There may be a phrasing issue. Parts of iCloud data are protected with a device passphrase / passcode (or specifically: a encryption key generated based on that). Further, your iCloud account is protected with a password of course. So these are two layers of protection, not quite one or the other like the text may imply.

As others here are pointing out, with passive monitoring (i.e. Wireshark) you can't decrypt Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) traffic even if the private keys are known / later discovered. This is by design and is the great thing about ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The private keys would only allow you to impersonate the server in an active attack, not decrypt a new direct connection.

The key is never transmitted (even in encrypted form), unlike with RSA. A good way of thinking about this is with a colour mixing analogy. I had a go at explaining this (with a Lego stormtrooper) here: https://unop.uk/understanding-encryption-and-key-exchange/
When working on this[1], I spent three sleepless days shaving bytes from the included Brainf*ck interpreter. The last byte probably took about 5 hours.
