> I just got over it, walked up to the first friendly looking person I could find,

One thing I started doing was to find the least friendly looking person and ask them. Great way to break stereotypes based on looks! Or (in a public place), ask the guy who looks like a gangster. Of course, in a foreign country, you also want to ask the person most likely to speak the language you speak.
We can tell from the length field that we need to read 0x00000101 (or 257) bytes; 257 8 = 2056 bytes, which is in the range for a 2048-byte RSA key (with some of the bits going unused).
Good work Jonny :-) I'm proud of you!

The title is definitely misleading.
And yet they are all, each and every one of them, vitally necessary.
Awk meshes very well with a lot of my natural inclinations about text processing. I've sadly stopped using it lately as it seems that the majority of my use cases these days run up against a (to me) glaring deficiency in the language. Specifically, capture groups in pattern regexes. It's probably one of those "you're doing it wrong" kind of things, but if awk had that one feature, I probably wouldn't ever need to use perl.
I'm trying to learn Mandarin, and I think it gives you _a lot_ of adversity. There is nothing fun in rote learning, but there is also really no way around it when it comes to new languages. A friend of mine speaks it fluently now, and you'll be moderately surprised by his path to success: religiously practicing his routines.
I'm not a parent for those reasons. However, if you haven't experienced something for yourself, you cannot truly know what it is like. This is true of everything, including parenting.

My view is that a child throwing a tantrum in the supermarket, and a 20-something being bothered by it, are two sides of the same coin. And in fact, I care about the consequences of either behavior, but not the causes.

Of course we care at some level. We're programmed to care, otherwise kids wouldn't have developed the tantrum gene. If my baby has a tantrum in the supermarket, I will swing into tantrum mode and deal with it.

If my kid reaches the age of 20-something, and expresses hostility towards the reasonably expected range of human behaviors observed in a typical civic environment, well, I hope that doesn't happen.

Sure, it takes a village to raise a child. But if it's somebody else's baby, or somebody else's 20-something, then in fact I don't care about it in the same way as if it's my own.

Making observations is much easier than coming up with solutions. Marx's analysis of capitalism was right on too.
I'm not sure why people seem so convinced that MNT is a hard requirement here. To be sure there are some components that require fine micrometer to nanometer level precision, but existing mechanical and/or chemical approaches do work, otherwise we wouldn't have things like computer chips

You can draw fibers, use cantilevers, exploit the wavelength properties of laser light, electromagnetically control the path of ionized materials in a vacuum, use piezoelectric actuators that convert current to angstrom level movements, and so on. Not to mention the many approaches to coating a surface with a very thin layer: vacuum deposition, spin coating, electroplating, etc.

Seems a little unfair to only mention the philosophical outlier.

I see the list of "advisors" on that page has some pretty respectable names, too. That may not be worth much - who knows how much influence they have over the content - but having some venerable academics willing to associate their names with your output like that is surely at least a small signal in favour of legitimacy.
Different events, although both are now contested in foiling cats.

The America's Cup, which Oracle currently holds, is the oldest sporting trophy in the world with a long history of billionaires falling over themselves to win (Koch, Bertelli, Bertarelli, Fay). The Cup is generally contested every four years, with the next event happening in Bermuda this year.

The ESS, on the other hand, is a more recent series and is contested every year. While less prestigious than the AC, the ESS still attracts some big names and arguably produces better racing but less intrigue.

Electric cars change the whole logic since you need a relatively simple drivetrain (similar to that solar powered car built in high school) and a whole lot of batteries. So there's a lot more room for creativity and design I think. But from Tesla's perspective, they started out looking like a lotus to appeal to rich people and have kept design as a core part of their product so they probably will try to keep some part of that even in their more affordable car.

Also keep in mind that the 3 series isn't exactly for the mass market. Its price range is more like a BMW 3 series with some bell and whistles.
Privacy isn't the level of secrecy it's the agency you have on choosing what and with whom to share information.

Reducing the ability to share information is just as much a violation of pricacy as some one "stealing" it and disclosing it them selves.

The problem with Facebook and the likes is that by default anything you post to them is no longer yours hence no longer private and no matter how much security options they give you the potential loss of privacy is the same.

One of the major issues with this debate is that people equate anonymity with privacy and as a positive thing, confuse privacy with secrecy and can't agree if all they want is effective privacy or principle privacy.

I agree, looking at this statement it sounds like this is a result of private equity loading the company up with debt. It sounds like problems are in the debt servicing post buyout.

>"The Santa Clara, California-based company has been burdened by debt stemming from an $8.2 billion buyout in 2007 by private equity firms Silver Lake Partners LP and TPG Capital LP, with $600 million coming due in October. Interest expense of more than $400 million a year has been pushing Avaya into losses."

I don't think I misunderstood your comment. I think in decisions about who to include in unemployment statistics, one should just defer to the professional body in charge of them, unless there is a clear methodological reason not to. There is no particular reason to think any rate is the "real" rate, so while it is true there are multiple rates you could compute, the right thing to do is to pick the standard one. And so anyone who relies on the standard rate (politicians, the Fed) is quite correct to do so. Besides, I'm not sure about this, but I have the feeling the unemployment rate by design isn't meant to track structural changes in the economy (and that's fine!), so if you find a structural change in the economy it doesn't track, you'd still be okay using it.

Edit: In fact, there's this (https://www.bls.gov/cps/cps_htgm.htm#unemployed), so it wouldn't be correct at all to call that 'the "real" unemployment rate'.

> Is there only one official definition of unemployment?
There is only one official definition of unemployment—people who are jobless, actively seeking work, and available to take a job, as discussed above. The official unemployment rate for the nation is the number of unemployed as a percentage of the labor force (the sum of the employed and unemployed).

> Some have argued, however, that these unemployment measures are too restricted, and that they do not adequately capture the breadth of labor market problems. For this reason, economists at BLS developed a set of alternative measures of labor underutilization. These measures, expressed as percentages, are published every month in The Employment Situation news release. They range from a very limited measure that includes only those who have been unemployed for 15 weeks or more to a very broad one that includes total unemployed, all people marginally attached to the labor force, and all individuals employed part time for economic reasons. More information about the alternative measures is available on the BLS website.
That's Camus right?
I'm curious if anyone here has ever had kids in a (good, well run) cohousing community.

A major reason young kids are so stressful is they're relying on parents for play and social stimulation when they need more unstructured time with other kids. This is not the preferred way for either parent or child. Parents get fatigued entertaining three and four year olds because they are not three, and kids will choose other kids over parents most of the time if it's available.

The problem with parks and play spaces is that the kids don't know each other. Family life is segregated so kids don't get to form bonds.
OpenNMS works well.
I'm not arguing for one side or the other. I'm telling you how it works in practice.

Complain all you like. Our Constitution spells out in very clear terms that blacks are to be considered 3/5th of a white man for the purposes of representation in Congress. If that term itself isn't an example of how wrong it is to be a strict textualist I don't know a better example.

I wouldn't make the mistake of pretending that the Constitution is a perfect document. You shouldn't either.

This will sound lame but for me it's always been routine. Being able to work a full day when my personal life feels like it's falling apart has done wonders in distracting me to when my emotions calm down to the point where I can make more mature decisions later on when I feel cooled off.
Wise words.

We do need a better way to measure value people create. For example, many geniuses (inventors, thinkers, etc) who do not have business skills live poor while creating more value than many CEOs that can manage, negotiate, raise funds, have connections, etc.

Business people do create value too by connecting people, making things happen, etc., but often their value output is overrated.

Many actors and musicians and sport peopl are overrated too vs doctors who save lives. They worth a lot only because of economy of scale. Everyone knows them and they monetize their followers.

In some way it is a fair world, because we all put in nearly about the same conditions. Well, except our place of birth and genetics, which we have no choice over. But everything else is up to us, which kind of makes it fair because we compete in the same conditions. However, maybe it is a time for a new system. Why not?

As far as the education, the nature will do its miracle. New generations will change everything, they will know what to do because they born in new world.

Everything will work out on its own as it should. It is happening.
I should be more careful. I believe standards groups are evil. My rhetoric is strongly influenced by that belief: I think we shouldn't try to pick apart specific bad actors inside of standards groups but rather reject the entire enterprise and try different approaches.

The IPSEC working group discussions I've read are infuriating. I hope it's clear that I believe cryptographic scientists could have improved IPSEC, but were prevented from doing so by cliques in the IETF. That's the "douchebaggery" I'm talking about.

I have different personal feelings about different people involved in this drama. But I don't mean to compound those feelings into the point I'm trying to making. I'm afraid that's what I end up doing when I use words like "douche". So: my apologies. I'd delete that part of my comment if I could.
Yes - I think you do need something more than that to become so defeated that you feel trapped and unable to travel.

I'm not saying that stuff isn't awful. Just that it's minor compared to other hardships that people routinely overcome.

Not OP but I've done that on occasion. Going barefoot has a certain liberation to it and an extra level of connectedness - I'd never know, for example, how frigging freezing the floors in the cold-produce aisle were if it weren't for having been barefoot (though it's obvious if one cares to think of it, I hadn't thought of it, like I said it's an extra awareness about one's surroundings). Pavement is really sore after only a few hundred metres if you're not used to being barefoot, grass is very comfy in contrast.

I lived in Bernal Heights with a 6-8 year old. Then we moved to Lafayette. East bay kid raising is really awesome. But now we live in Reno.

SF kid raising wasn't ideal, and when we realized what would be involved w/r/t schooling, we left.
I would speculate that it is lack of sufficient competition in the market. Therefore the cost of living for single workers in single worker dwellings raises to eliminate any surplus.

Most larger dwellings are similarly set by the price that can be afforded by two full time adult workers.

This leaves no room for reduced time workers, such as two adults with jobs that allow them to work within the hours that children are typically in public daycare (warehousing in schools).

It also doesn't help anyone that the building codes are very lousy at requiring sufficient acoustic isolation. I'd sure like to not be woken up early / kept up late by the noises of those in other units.

This fear is based on a few failed attempts to do this in previous trade deals. It's 99% FUD. In reality, it's extremely unlikely. Further, if ISDS ever tried to impose an outrageous judgment that outweighed the benefits of the partnership, the loser could opt to not comply and drop out of the deal.
As mentioned upthread & here, yes, the early Fieros did have a habit of catching fire. There were primarily two reasons for this:

GM refused to budget for a new engine for the car-it never really wanted to have a two-seater outside the Corvette, but after the second gas crisis, the turkish engineer who'd been agitating for what would become the Fiero sold it to management as an economic commuter car.

The idea was to save money by using components (including the existing engine) from GM's A-body front-wheel-drive sedans, amongst others. The Pontiac 2.5L engine was too tall to fit properly in the mid-engined Fiero, and with no money for a complete redesign, the solution was to install a shallower oil pan, making the whole engine run a quart low (at least) at all times. That four was also not especially resistant to burning/leaking oil; so it was always a risk that the engine would be starved of lubricant, overheat, seize and catch fire.

I also understand that there were problems with the factory wiring on the electric radiator fans, such that airflow was never properly managed in the engine compartment, leading to... overheating and fire.

These problems were eventually fixed, but a reputation for burning up at stoplights is a hard one to overcome with normal consumers.

(I say 'normal consumers' here. Lamborghini has made many fire-prone models, but Lamborghini buyers are Not Normal.)

In all honesty, when I hear people say that some social program can't work in America because it's "too diverse," I can't help but hear "it can't work because of all the blacks and Mexicans".

It's disappointing and quite upsetting to me... It's clear that they are using a (slightly) more socially acceptable form of racism. After all, are they saying, for eg, education can't work because of all the Irish or German or Asians? Is it because of all the Canadians living off the US government?

Who exactly are these diverse types that are ensuring that particular failure?
The moral of the story seems to be to stick in your core competencies and de-serendipitous discovery for a couple decades.

If you're a theoretical physicist in 2117 you have a pretty good idea of what was figured out in 2020 and you can front that and collect your Nobel prize in physics and most importantly its funding.

Meanwhile most of the modern world is built out of creative concepts. Huh we can create seemingly arbitrary organic chemicals what happens when ones with free double bonds get triggered into single bonding with neighbors, nobody never thought of anything that crazy and its a bazillion dollar industry now. Uranium, well, it turns glass artistically yellow otherwise pretty boring. Silicon, well, it makes a nice metallurgical addition to steel and aluminum and is "easily" purified to ridiculous levels but otherwise not terribly noteworthy. And then there's things that don't amount to anything, multiverse, strings, skip all that stuff to gain progress. Electric cars were not a "thing" for their first century, but their second is looking pretty interesting.

The page suggests that they are priorities, not that the FSF is supporting the development of these projects.

Given the diverse skill set and interests of free software developers, it's probably better to have a long list of priorities as long as there is little overlap. It would be difficult to attract individuals and businesses into supporting projects that they are not interested in or don't have the skills to contribute to.

Very clear and informative!

I got lost at this part, if anyone could clarify that would be great:

3. The key uses the PKCS#5 padding scheme: the last byte contains the number of padding bytes; e.g. if there are 5 bytes of padding, it contains 0x05. The last five bytes of the plaintext should then be 0x05 (something you should validate if you are decrypting the key yourself). If you decrypt the key above, you’ll see the last eight bytes are, in fact, 0x08.

The key is the MD5 of the combination of IV+pass, so how could the last byte of the key be controllable? The last two bytes shown are 532b, which is not 0x08? I must be missing some step that happens between getting the MD5 and this padding scheme.
It is not, at least for DDR3: "How Rowhammer Could Be Used to Exploit Weaknesses in Computer Hardware"[0] tested ECC and rowhammered it.

ECC can only reliably detect single and double-bit errors (in 64bit spans, and it can only correct single-bit errors), anything beyond that and detection is up to chance. ECC is a mitigation factor, but ultimately not a protection.

This is the right thing to do and I hope it is not too little too late. Free/libre OSS won the battle for the server, lost the battle for the desktop, but desktop is not (that) relevant anymore. FLOSS phone ecosystem will be hard to next to impossible, in my opinion, but worth going into. Self-hosted server side software has a very good chance of succeeding. For a long time I essentially wanted something like Synology and QNAP but completely open, with a single package installation interface and ecosystem of phone apps working with my self hosted software.
