Not true. Google collects your searches. They don't sell your searches, they sell whatever they infer from your searches (your compiled and quite vague profile and I know, because I interacted with their AdSense platform), because they'd be stupid to sell your actual searches, since that's their most valuable property.

Does anybody else know your search history? Besides the NSA, whom I assume have access to all US-hosted data, no. And not even Google knows my most sensitive searches, because my private mode is a Tor Browser connecting to DuckDuckGo, answering for my porn needs mostly.

And I trust Google to keep my data safe more than I trust shady AV companies, because Google has hired a lot of security researchers, at their size all eyes are watching them and their behavior has been acceptable compared with that of others like Facebook.

Information security is all about compartmentalization ;-)
Wouldn't this waste a lot of bandwidth?

Or is it likely that the audio is being analyzed client side before pushing results to a server somewhere?

Also, if this was actually happening, should this be announced in some terms of service?

Thats why we should vote for contracTs on paper and not people.
If the worst happens and students get deported, the universities should find a way to at least allow the students to finish their degrees remotely over the internet. Then they can gift Australia or another country their skills.
Pardon the generalization here, but I know a lot of "non-college people" who support things like Trump and Brexit and would like to offer up an interpretation as to what many of them are thinking. Bear in mind they skew a bit older as well so they've seen a lot change.

If you're a college educated person and/or a tech person and you live in a big coastal city the past few decades have probably been pretty great, these cities have boomed, there are all these new industries that have sprung up, they've produced great jobs, you are smart and you work hard, same as the people around you, and everyone has gotten more conscious about big picture issues like the environment, gender equality and multiculturalism.

If you are non college educated, you don't live in one of these booming cities (or you live in a shitty part of town), and you haven't gotten involved in the new economy the picture may be very different. A lot of people in this category have witnessed the decimation of the manufacturing base and the communities around it. They've watched meth sweep over the country and ruin lives. They've dealt firsthand with the ramifications of teen pregnancies, broken homes, perpetual joblessness. All problems which affect "non college" people much more than they affect those with college degrees and stable white collar jobs.

So a lot of these people have seen the world get worse, not better. Their focus is on stability in their personal lives and it's getting harder. When you take that as a given and you start talking about issues of morality and idealism they might even get offended - what makes you so great that you spend your time worrying about this stuff instead of the practical concerns of keeping your job, covering rent and food, and staying away from shit that'll ruin your life (booze, drugs, bad people, whatever)?

They have no idea what to do other than vote for someone who at least sounds like them and sounds like he wants to help. That definitely wasn't Hillary. It wasn't Obama or McCain or Romney either but when Trump came on the scene they perked up and they went to the polls. And in fairness if he ends up doing stuff like building oil pipelines and cutting funding to the EPA, then he's creating jobs they can do and giving the finger to the comfortable asshole academics who've never had to worry about these problems.

They are not morally deaf IMO. They just have more immediate problems to worry about in their lives (or perhaps did at some point and still maintain those attitudes).

The difficult but clear solution in my eyes is to help them get what they deserve as fellow citizens, and which "college people" have, which is jobs, safe neighborhoods, and stable lives.

Does anyone on your network have a valid reason to execute Office macros? If not, disable them via group policy. Solves so many problems. See what @SwiftOnSecurity has to say on the topic, they manage thousands of users and it seems to work excellently.
Bash is still very responsive with 150k+ history entries. The only noticeable performance impact is increased startup time when the history file is not in disk cache.
In De Gaulle's case yes. But this has not been the case in every mass protest movement in all countries (plus, France voted, which is much larger than Paris, where the demonstrations were mostly held).
and when do you do that when you have long working hours and kids at home too?
Maybe some of them thought they were fine if they were using AV software? I know what you mean, but the marketing departments of many AV vendors praise it like some kind of all-around solution. I'm pretty sure some people think they can get away with disabling updates etc. and than just buy AV software afterwards when they feel they can't handle their systems anymore.

Maybe the perception that you can achieve some kind of security through band-aid solutions is exactly the cause for the lacking security of many organizations?
Weirdly, I find increasing fat intake makes me lose weight faster. This is probably because it's hard to eat lots of fat, but easy to consume the equivalent calories through carbs (I'm looking at you Oreo milkshakes...)

First, there is no real way to measure "the will of the majority" except through votes cast and, to a lesser extent, through polls. The majority of votes were cast for Clinton, not Trump. That's a clear fact. The polls are also clear that Trump had lower approval ratings than past presidents, and his disapproval ratings were far higher than any other president when they came into office. This is also a fact.

We can, of course, argue with who Trump represents, because depending on who we are, his words and his actions are going to be interpreted differently. My interpretation is that he represents straight white men. More specifically, wealthy straight, white, men.

New York and California make up over 18% of the population. Those citizens are absolutely just as important as citizens of any other state when it comes to discussing the popular vote. While Trump might have won the popular vote in 30 states, that does nothing to diminish the fact that Clinton won the popular vote by close to 2.8 million votes.

While I'll admit that some of what I said can be considered opinion, the other parts of what I said are VERY clearly supported by fact.
This isn't really true anymore. All the major browser vendors push out new releases pretty frequently. Even Apple and Microsoft tend to put out a new release at least every six months or so. And because of the ubiquity of software / OS updates, these tend to get deployed to the majority of users fairly rapidly.

For example, consider a feature like arrow function support in JavaScript: http://caniuse.com/#feat=arrow-functions
Click "usage relative" to scale by the relative popularity of different browser versions.

Despite only being standardised and implemented in browsers last year, arrow functions are already supported in the large majority of deployed web clients, including Edge, Firefox, Chrome and Safari, both desktop and mobile.

Nowadays, new features, particularly relatively small and uncontroversial ones like display: flex-root, can get implemented across browsers very quickly.

False - many of the 9/11 hijackers had engineering degrees. Engineering education especially in a lot of those countries actually makes one less of a critical thinker and more vulnerable to accept dogma without objecting.
> Just think - the time you spent writing that snarky response could just as easily have been spent writing...

Is it better to feed fish to a person, or teach them to catch one?

I admit that I was snarky as a response to the entitlement I sensed in his reply to the LMGTFY link. When I come across a discussion on Hacker News (or elsewhere) talking about things I don't know, I take a moment to Google first.

Because asking "who is he, and why should I care?" (which is what the original question amounts to) isn't contributing to the discussion much either.
Here's a question, could such an exploit be achieved using something like Stack Overflow?
Gogland's non-standard formatting is one of my pain points. But the standard go* tooling doesn't offer any proper refactoring.

Unless if by refactoring you mean "Jus' renaming my functions and variables and nothing else, and only when all my packages compile correctly, with 80% guranteed success" then Gorename is a good tool, I guess. YMMV.

This is what I have in mind when I talk about good refactoring (Resharper on Visual Studio being the gold standard IMHO):

I think it was beneficial, if it helped or not. I think it shows many of the 'money first' people on here what it can do to you and how you can make bad (as in ultimately, life threateningly bad) decisions with startups and investments. I think it does belong here.
>When I eat carbs, I put on weight. When I don't, I lose weight. However, other people I know are the opposite.

I doubt so.

If you stick to protein and vegetables with no carbs and sugars in general, you get lots of filling fiber, and fewer calories, unless they consume huge quantities of lard or bacon every day, or drink sugars (e.g. in juices or sodas), etc.

So those people are doing something wrong.
Couldn't be said oft enough. Still seeing people buying a new "security suite" every year.
Including Iran on that list baffled me, too.
That was kind of my first thought... cablecard sucked so badly, most of the devices to make it more usable didn't work with restricted content, and in the end it failed.

All I could see happening is a weird convoluted standard that was so full of holes that even supporting various cable providers wouldn't allow much more freedom and would fail in the end. As much as I'd like to see a singular pvr option to rule them all rise up, I don't think I'd be happy with it even then.

I still find it far easier to pay the cable/netflix etc tax (guilt, you know), and just torrent almost everything I watch.

„when eating more carbs...toast“

You eat the wrong kind of carbs. The kind of carbs you eat have ZERO fiber...so of course you will be hungry. Eat a bowl of oatmeal (100g) with a banana and milk, add a little cinnamon, heat on the stove or in the microwave and you are set for the next 8 hours.
And this is why I end up downloading or streaming films - physical media DRM is now so hostile to the user it actively impedes the licensee from using the media in predictable and normal scenarios. I spent Christmas repeatedly explaining DRM to my mother who didn't understand why half her content wouldn't work with her new TV & Blu-Ray - I had chipped her old one so she could use discs from multiple regions as she lives on a boat.

On another note - VR has ruined 3D films for me - the scale is all wrong - watching Rogue One recently, my VR-adjusted brain struggled with the toy-scale spaceships. You get used to scale being correct quickly, and it being wrong is jarring - never mind being stuck to a single vantage point. I now prefer 2D films and my 3D really 3D.
Because my guess is that Defender is reasonably implemented and does the basics right, and therefore is significantly better than nothing for the average user. That guess is based on anecdotal observations of the quality of developers and practices at Microsoft vs what we've learned about A/V vendors via bug disclosures.
A lot of people still have to support IE10/11, including myself - until browser support is mostly on evergreen browsers & browsers keep up to date on implementing the new standards, ability to use the standards hinges upon a couple of years buffer in some cases.

It still is largely true unfortunately.
Last week, someone on a Android podcast referred to it as "Alto"! No one remembers / knows what it is.
That's pretty accurate! (I'm one of the authors.)

In event-based programming, one of the basic abstractions are something variously called "events", "futures", or "promises". The idea of a future is that it is a data structure that can yield a value at some point in the future, but not might be ready to produce one right away. This idea dates back to (at least) MultiLisp and the Connection Machine, but many modern languages support this primitive -- for example, Javascript, Rust, Ocaml, C#, Java and Scala all have good library support for it.

Our basic idea is that futures correspond very closely to the interpretation of the "eventually" operator in temporal logic. So if we could give a typed lambda calculus for temporal logic, then we could implement the eventually operator with futures. The benefit of doing this is that we could design languages which combine the easiness of reasoning featured by purely functional programming, while still offering good support for event-based programming (eg, for GUIs). In addition, if we are coming from a typed language that has enough invariants, we can also simplify the implementation of futures (since we know statically that certain problems like deadlock can't arise).

My personal goal is to figure out the fundamental primitives of interactive programming. Ultimately I'd like to be able to go from a framebuffer to a comfortable GUI toolkit in a few hundred lines of code, so that teaching the principles of how to implement these things can fit into a semester-long course. (Since there is a fairly small limit on how much code a student can reasonably write/comprehend in a term, the better we understand a problem the more we can teach.)

This! I view doctors more and more like any other service provider. Their goals (removing symptoms / being on time for next appointment / staying within budget / maybe even prescribing drugs I get commission on) are not necessarily aligned with mine: identifying and removing the root cause for disease. So the decisions I make are my own, but I take the input from doctors and try to do as much research as possible. Needless to say, I don't take prescription drugs unless strictly necessary.

Once you view your GP as a mechanic, you can make much better decisions. Sure, their "cars" are more complex, but the role they play is similar. If you want your body to function well, you are responsible for it, not the doctors. They just help you out.
You want to add EMET to the mix.

That is not a lot of tooling, actually. I am thinking about IDE integration, static analysis, code generation, package management. What are aspects of the tooling experience I am missing?

You should probably rephrase. I think I get what you are trying to say, but the way you said it is way off.

There most definitely are such things as "toxins". There are neurotoxins produced by black widows, most scorpions, box jellyfish, many algae and cyanobacteria, among others. There are necrotoxins produced by the brown recluse, rattlesnakes, puff adders for example.

Heck, if there were no such thing as toxins, the "Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases" would have long ago dropped "and Toxins" from its name to save costs on ink :-). The Toxin and Toxin-Target database [1] would also have about 3700 less entries if toxins did not exist.

Yeah, trust Microsoft, he said:

Isn't it funny how at the same time someone is recommending to not trust other anti-viruses because they MITM you with their own certificates, Microsoft is doing the same god damn thing, or worse (allowing a whole country to spy on you through it, and not just itself).

Is that the same auditor that audited WoSign as well?

https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2016/10/24/distrusting-new...

Why hasn't Microsoft started requiring Certificate Transparency yet for all certificates? Maybe then I'll believe them when they say they're sure nothing wrong is going on here.
Why is it that authors of academic papers refuse to share the publication date? If it weren't for the file name, I wouldn't have even a remote clue.
Easy, you don't tamper with HTTPS traffic, it's innately a very bad idea.

Consider the goals that are trying to be achieved. You're attempting to stop the user either downloading malicious content or perhaps getting hit with a browser exploit or possibly you're trying to stop users going to a "bad" site.

The first one can be covered off with traditional on-access scanning of files.

The second one is much better addressed by improvements in browser sandboxing or general app. security.

The third one can be handled at a DNS level with reputation based block lists.

I can't comment on China, NK.
Everything is driven by real-world, day job productivity. Just yesterday I sketched out how to implement EitherT to a colleague at my day job (which bans ScalaZ) - not as an abstract exercise but because he was writing some code that he could tell ought to be expressible more simply than it was.

Not being permitted to use ScalaZ really doesn't matter - this is not the first job where I've had to reimplement it and I doubt it'll be the last. EitherT is a triviality, it's a couple of lines in any language with HKT. I could write it in my sleep (and not because I'm some super-smart developer; virtually anyone who's used EitherT could). The same goes for everything in ScalaZ really, at least all the useful parts - the things in it are remarkable not for any complex logic they contain but for the lack of any such logic. In many cases once you've conceived of the type signature the implementation requires no further thought at all. (In the Haskell world they even have a tool, djinn, for generating that kind of thing). But not being able to write the thought down would be a real pain - we'd have to write longer code which would cost the client in the short term, and that longer code would obscure the important parts and be less maintainable, which would cost the client more in the long term.

I mean that's the real proof that the killer feature is not ScalaZ itself but the type-system feature - the fact that I'm willing to take a job where ScalaZ is banned, but wouldn't take one in a language without HKT.
That's my point though, it's not that they invented new technology, they just sat down and said "heating is using X% of the battery, how can we lower that" and because it's an EV rather than an ICE car, different decisions would be made when picking from the existing range of off-the-shelf tech. There will be lots of these little decisions, and they'll probably add up, now that people are over the hump of "how can we build a modern EV" and just building incrementally better cars.
