I do, I've been a heavy user of both for 4+ years, but I'm not a security expert of any kind.

LastPass has been exploited a few times in ways that could have given up passwords. Their UX and server infrastructure seems to be a mess of php scripts, that itself doesn't have to be insecure but is a code smell. Their commercial support looks unmaintained. Both platforms support "cloud" based syncing but since 1Password's is pretty new I can't speak to it.

1Password does local encryption outside of the browser, LastPass will encrypt locally in the browser.

1Password can leverage other file transports to sync passwords, iCloud, DropBox, or any shared directory. LastPass does it all with their servers.

LastPass's web interface if compromised can have you give away the password to all your passwords. 1Password has a much smaller risk of this and would probably have to include a malicious software update.

1Password Families/Teams exists and I'm not familiar with it but it probably has a similar attack vector to LastPass's web interfaces.

You know, they both offer end to end encryption with similar attacks. Overall these companies are big targets and I'd rather keep my passwords offline or synced via side channels in a standalone app like 1Password.

PS I'd be amiss if I didn't mention dashlane https://www.dashlane.com/ I hear good things and it's passed review at a few companies who know their stuff, but that's all I know.

Oh wait, the right was the benefactor. Must all be a legit line of questioning.
> it can only be estimated (and doing so involves a decoder ring according to Ed Bott who suggests about $8bn of Microsoft’s revenue comes from IP licensing).

Are those software patents? If yes, that's a horrendous amount of racket they profit from. It's basically a massive tax on innovation.

Linux Foundation indeed should have a requirement for members not to assert patents except in defensive fashion. Or they can at least require them to join the OIN.
> To say that consciousness is an illusion is ridiculous

More likely, you simply misunderstand what is meant by "illusion". What is self-evident is that there are thoughts, and some of these thoughts are "I am experiencing X". It's naive to simply infer from that, that true subjective experience actually exists, just like it's naive to infer that water can break pencils simply because you can see it [1].

You should give Dennet more credit. He's almost certainly right, just like science proved in every other case humans thought they were special in the past. The closest analog of consciousness as a pseudo-mystical property that was eventually simply replaced by a scientific concept is "vitalism", which was eventually superceded by biology. Not by any proof that elan vital didn't exist, but by simple recognition that it was special pleading and provided no explanatory power whatsoever.

The 'clear' markets are generally better functioning than ones that are more opaque, and there's been deliberate effort to making them more obvious. Think grain categorization and grading.
Do they make these in toric lenses too?
No, neither Halderma nor anyone else is saying the Russians did it. He explicitly says in the article that he doesn't think that hacking is any more likely than the polls just being wrong. He's just saying that the paper vote can be counted for a fee if a candidate challenges the count, and he recommends that Clinton do so just to know definitively if the electronic vote was manipulated.
I think the best of these books (at least of the ones I've read) are in the $15 tier. Several of the books in the lower tiers are ones I'd recommend skipping and go to online resources, instead. It may not still be so, but when I last looked at the O'Reilly bash books, many years ago, the TLDP bash programming HOWTOs were more pragmatic and easy to follow (I think that's here: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html and http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ ). I guess UNIX in a Nutshell was good in its day, but is quite old now, even in its 4th edition.

DNS & BIND is one I recommend to anyone who ever has to touch anything related to networks, because so many problems I have seen in my 20 years of troubleshooting network problems have come down to someone not understanding DNS. It's well-written, covers the how and why, and covers everything from "I have one website" to "I run a dozen data centers with thousands of zones and thousands of queries per second" (and the authors have significant experience at all of those levels).

And Essential System Administration is a classic, though a bit dated the last time I looked at it (I mean, the core services and concepts it covers are relatively timeless, but it's missing a lot of modern cloud and service-based concepts).

That said, nearly all of these were first written (their first editions) when O'Reilly was publishing incredibly high quality books; well above anyone else in the industry, particularly for OSS and Free Software topics. So, probably a good value, if you haven't already read them and don't have a good foundation of knowledge of these topics.
Hopefully will have time to work on the book version of https://codewithoutrules.com/saneworkweek/. And maybe a talk proposal for PyCon.
i know it's off topic; however, i'd like to share my eyes improvements.

0. light is important. mouse in complete darkness develops nearsightedness (-20 diopters iirc). outdoor kids got better eyes. -> nowadays i turn all my screens on full brightness level.

1. vary sunglasses for different ranges. for example, i was at -4. i used -4 for driving car, used -2 for coding and used -1 for phones instead while still comfy.

2. under sun, wear less power. notice during the day, i was still comfy wearing -3 for driving car and naked eyes for phone. the reduction can go as far as -2.

3. if you can't do less near work, wear plus lens. plus lens therapy is a long term investment. it's slow; however, there's no side effect. i'm now at the point that i can drive motorcycle and coding with naked eyes. i started around new year, so it's almost a year. it's okay. it took me three decades to get to -4, a year is nothing.

NB:
for 1 & 2, you can experiment using your old glasses. don't be afraid to use your old lenses. the worst that can happen to your life is that you get a slightly blurry vision for a minute.
for 3: plus lens therapy. i prefer it to lasik, which has side effects and can degrade anyway. it's not instant, that's the feature -> if anything go bad, i can stop and things revert back gradually. with lasik, it's binary. you can't go back if shit happens. to be fair, lasik is not instant too, you need months for recovery.
It's an interesting product but I need vanilla Arduino and off-the-shell parts. We build one different robot a year as a final project after a few months experimenting with simpler circuits and components.
I bought an ipad mini for safari testing (grrr) and it turned out to be my favourite way to read computer books.

Screen is adequately large and the DPI is so high that they look great, it turned out to be a useful device.
> Java 1.0 certainly didn't ship with a built-in web server and routing stack

Kind of, it supported distributed computing via CORBA and RMI.

A built in web server was released as part of Java 6, 2006.

> Can't speak to the other ones but I would imagine their first releases were also less useful than Go.

The fact is that Go, released in 2009, was a pretty bare bones compared to the state of those programming languages in 2009.

Also while Go might had an HTTP package on version 1.0, it surely still doesn't have a GUI framework on 1.8, which those languages had on 1.0.

EDIT: Rephrased a bit the answer.
That would be Haldeman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._R._Haldeman ?
I suspect that it doesn't at all seeing as how it is a Linux distribution with some nice features for security and privacy baked in by default.
And you can immediately calculate the number that you need to tell to fake any choice you want.
120k for 12 weeks of experience is insane. Sign me up for whatever bootcamp that was

It wasn't the bootcamp -- it was the self-study, and more to the point, his ability to reverse-engineer the interview process which got him that offer.

Which probably says a lot more about the current gold standard, "let's see how many hoops you can jump through" interview process than about the merits of bootcamps, per se.
Depends on the size and use case of the project. If it's only a small hobby project that myself and a few others use, writing automated tests instead of manual testing is overkill. If you have paying customers or have made an implicit promise to keep the service up and running, then automated tests make sense.
Sure thing! I'll drop you a mail before leaving work today in a few hours.
That certainly makes more sense. If it makes my argument clearer, I'm asserting that the possessory instinct is natural and that the organizational factors themselves have a biological basis, in that we replicate the basic organizational structure of our bodies in similarly specialized institutional form.

As I mentioned elsewhere, I'm increasingly drawn to the conclusion that those who argue most intensely for certain ideological positions are the least comfortable with the idea that our social structures may be biologically determined or could be subject to biological analysis.
This is exactly what I have been doing as well over the past couple of weeks.
If the machines in question have paper trails, and a recount shows conclusively that majorities in those states did in fact vote for for Clinton, then I don't see how it could possibly be justified to stick with the incorrect result, regardless of whether we like the political consequences.

If there's no paper trail, then there's nothing we can do. We can't overturn results just because some mathematicians think they look funny.
I disagree. Of all of these DNS & BIND is the one I've recommended the most over the years. So many people have no idea how DNS works, and so many of the online references are wrong or incomplete. I've worked in three major fields of IT over the past 20 years, and in all of them, DNS has been the cause of more problems than any other single category.

And, in this case, DNS & BIND is one of the great O'Reilly books from the era when it meant something for a book to be from O'Reilly.
And of course, there's occasionalism, which holds that the mind and the body (Including the brain) match up without the mind actually having a causal influence on the body at all.

I don't think this removes responsibility for actions though, because even if this is true, whatever we choose to do is still what our bodies do,so we can still choose our actions. Like how two superrational players of the prisoners dilemma can choose the action of their coplayer by choosing their own action.
I'm really excited about the scoped slots feature. Finally it's really easy to create components that can be customized by the user from the outside. For example, it's now really easy to create a data table (with features like filters and sort), and with each row showing not only the data text, but also any other feature you might want to embed in it (like attach click listeners to each row, or popup some menu on hover).

I believe there was a way (probably a complicated hacky way) to achieve this previously too, but I never investigated it too much. Now it's really easy.

Kudos to the Vue team for this release!

Trump was estimated to lose big.

If Latinos actually showed up like expected in Florida and Texas that election would be Clinton easily.

It still blows my mind 95% of Latinos didn't vote against Trump.

Russian hacking the ballot makes sense when your candidate is the dark horse
Hey,

You're absolutely right; I maybe would not use this part for production. However, create-react-app also implements these decorators; and they are a quite elegant way of annotating methods or classes.

All the best,

Possibly, although I imagine any kind of 32bit (or 64bit) assembly on top of an OS is likely to not have that 8bit fun factor.

The solution is to get a time machine, go back to 2008 when the Republican party was on the decline ("a regional rump party, confined to the South") and make the change from a position of power.
Not this satellite. Not yet.
The article does read a lot like the "Psychopath's Guide To Career-Hunting".

Yup. Which is exactly the mindset that the current interview culture most strongly rewards.
Not social organization but free commerce -- a particular social organization. And "natural" in the sense of natural rights -- ethically correct and a stable equilibrium.

Free commerce might be ethically correct, but that's certainly not obvious to everyone and it does not appear to be a stable equilibrium for social organization.
C is supported. We are using the riscv.org toolchain considering that the micro has a RV32IM set. An arduino bootloader will make the micro Arduino-compatible .
Particles are actually just excitations in a field but it's the field that makes them actual particles. An electron arises from an electron field. An electron hole arises from an absence of an electron.

I'm surprised to a see a professor of CS be so ruled by emotion. The Clinton team is likely to ignore this type of advice until actual evidence is shown. "I think she should have won" or "the polls all said.." is simply not good enough to overturn the entire process at this point.
A Network of Sorrows: Small Adversaries and Small Allies – Quinn Norton
You can do this in Estonia, and if there is any country that is going to be a target for hackers it's going to be the Baltic countries.

The problem with home electronic voting, other than hacks, is that a voter can be coerced into voting for someone that they don't want. So the Estonian system has it that you can vote multiple times and only the last vote counts, you can also vote in person using paper and that trumps electronic voting.
> The alternative was to burn some millions on lawyers, possibly ranging in the hundreds, in attempt to contest it.

It's doable if all racket victims would pool their resources against the aggressor (MS). Trolls lose when faced with massive opposition. Their whole tactic is based on individual intimidation.
How sad. People concerned about interference in elections aren't people who lost - it's not a partisan issue whether Russian intelligence or the FBI is interfering in US elections.

> If they messed with enough voting machines to make a difference, NSA etc would know about it

That's completely theoretical and U.S. intelligence's real track record isn't nearly that good. There was Pearl Harbor, the Bay of Pigs, the collapse of the Soviet Union, 9/11, being unaware of Saddam Hussein's WMD programs before the first Gulf War, a false positive on Hussein's WMD programs for the second one, stolen nuclear warhead and stealth fighter plans (among many others); major hacks of many major government facilities including Dept of State, OPM (which include files on undercover spies), and many more; and finally, during the election, the successful attack on the DNC. - Those are just the highlights. I don't feel as confident as you do.

Finally, sometimes government doesn't tell the public everything. President Johnson knew that Nixon was privately negotiating with the North Vietnamese, undermining U.S. foreign policy, but chose to say nothing because (AFIAK) he thought it would be too disruptive.

None of that is evidence that something happened, of course; only that we can't rely on the NSA to detect everything and notify the public about it.
Love the "all the things" suggestion, we'll definitely look into that.
Webhooks & exports are on the way.
User assignments/permissions are definitely going to be improved. Great idea :)

The new bup version can do pruning, FWIW (haven't tried to see how hairy it actually is).

bup does have a huge advantage of deduplicating multiple machine images that can backup simulatenously. With Borg, there is a lock held on the repository (only one machine at a time), and if multiple machines do use the same repository, they will need to download the indices (Slow compared to bup's bloom filter), or use sshfs etc (slow)

borg also has internal encryption. If only borg adopts bup's bloom filters and concurrent access, it will only have advantages...
A good way to check for item (0):

1. Point your camera phone to your computer screen and compare the brightness with the surroundings. The 2 levels should somewhat match.

2. Adjust as needed. Often it is a matter of having proper lighting in the room.

Most camera phones have very low dynamic range, so you'll instantly notice if the screen is way brighter (or darker) than the surroundings.

Unless you want to spark a flame war - change the question title to celbrities instead of the newly minted president elect.

I think the obvious answer is that not everyone with lots of followers have or makes a lot of money. It will strangle the social justice movement (not that i will be too sad, but still that is not the right way of defeating an ideology)
Yeah, I've been thinking the same thing. It also makes all the information easily queryable by media organisations and statisticians.
Although I had PRK done the first time(2010). I havejust had it done a 2nd time this week for 1 eye.

I didn't know this until recently, but apparently PRK is the only option if its been 1+ year since your first surgery (regardless of what your first time was).

I never liked the idea of the flap, so among many reasons, I had gone with the option without a flap the first time.
It won't likely replace people any time soon, but if it's anything like other technologies, it will make workers more productive (reduce jobs) or the process easier to learn (larger pool of worker -> lower wages).
And means that Chrome will nag you about your "developer mode extensions" every time it starts up. I know why they do that, but it's still annoying. :(

It just encourages people with the most influence to get their followers to abandon Twitter for some Twitter clone that doesn't charge them money.
Seems doubtful that the founding fathers and revolutionists thought their "oaths" to the crown meant much either.

Riccardo Manzotti has some pretty cool Philosophical Cartoons on his site:

http://www.consciousness.it/RM_Cartoons.php

His "spread mind" site is great too:

http://www.thespreadmind.com/

As a "seeker" I sometimes wonder if he figured out something close to what nonduality teaches, only in a more technical language (ie. consciousnsss is not located inside anymore than it is outside, therefore somewhat blurring the lines between I and the world). I think his example of the rainbow is such a great metaphor.

Bernardo Kastrup has his theories as well with his whirlpool" metaphor but to me it sounds like it makes sense only to him, and I don't get much out of his metaphor. Whereas Riccardo's pointers are reminiscent of older teachings in that they really invite the reader to examine direct experience (Just my interpretation of his theory).
Yes, but by extracting value they are forced to integrate with the ecosystem at large. In this way, the ecosystem becomes aware of your product.
Google's Built-In Color Picker When Searching “Color Picker”
Not only C#, all the OS APIs are available to all languages including C++, not the half baked NDK experience and everything is compiled to native code on the store before downloading into the devices.

Not like the great idea from Google to do AOT on the device itself, which was so good that had to create an hybrid solution on Android N.
It's very high level (there's a reason I'm working on a book). So parts of it are conceptual, so thinking about what you want, another part is "go practice negotiating at work, and here's some ideas" and that can take as long as you want.

So you can just read the email and that's it, and that'll take very little time. Or you could go full bore and spend a lot of time on, say, building savings to improve your negotiating position.
Demographics, Not Hacking, Explain the Election Results

I got LASIK in college. My side effects were minor except for the fact it wore off after 10 years. Now I'm back to wearing glasses since you can't wear contacts after LASIK.
That matches our experience as well; desktop computers have no problems running VR in the browser. We couldn't get above 50FPS for the mobile devices we targeted (the servicing contract we had was for a mobile experience only.)

This is when we decided to write a custom engine tailored specifically for our needs based on my experience working with AAA game engines (I even shipped a title on the PSVita so had intimate knowledge of PowerVR and ARM architectures). And as I said in my original post, it is definitely not beginner friendly - while three and babylon both are.

It took about two weeks to write the core tech and it can only do what this specific project required. If not for performance issues on last-gen mobiles we'd never have rolled our own.

Desktop computers are incredibly fast - they can easily waste 90% of their CPU and still yield a lighting fast VR experience (for small scenes at least - less than a hundred draw calls). Mobile not so much.
The current measured chip v.1 of the Open-V has not USB PHY. We are using a USB-to-SPI cable to program the micro. However, we are developing a low-speed USV PHY: PCS and PMA; and also a high speed PHY USB3.1 https://twitter.com/onchipUIS/status/787124721955508224. We are hoping to tapeout soon the USB PHYs to see feasibility inclusion for Open-V v.2.
Oh yes! I can't believe I neglected that. I often work on VR project at work. Prior to that I often worked in stereoscopic film which had the same problem.
These challenges are very easy. Anyone who knows something harder? To my knowledge, it's not easy to find material to study/exploit to get better at XSS'ing.
> limited to interacting with a drawing library (e.g. OpenGL)

Isolation between applications running on the same graphics hardware is rather weak (GPUs don't have something like a MMU), so that exercise is left to the reader ^W driver getting a lot of stuff right. Most don't, or didn't. That's why eg. Qubes doesn't allow sharing a graphics card among domains (well and the fact that the drivers don't support that either), so an untrusted system can only get it's dedicated GPU, with no sensitive data ever going on the same hardware, and the DMA capabilities of the GPU are kept in check by the IOMMU of the CPU. The host only gets involved in blitting the framebuffer somewhere else for display.
