In terms of possible compromise, I rate the possibility that my phone is compromised way higher than my laptop. Adding a factor is a good idea in terms of security (not in terms of availability and ease of use, but definitely in security), but replacing it entirely... No.

It's my tinfoil hat theory why MS waits for an earnest update on their highend Surfacebook. A high-end quad-core Surfacebook with a 10-series GPU and 32GB LPDDR with real Thunderbolt 3 Ports would make for a 13" dreammachine...

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angie%27s_List:

> Angie's List is a US-based website containing crowd-sourced reviews of local businesses. For the quarter ending on June 30, 2016, Angie's List reported total revenue of US$83,000,000 and a net income of US$4,797,000.

> Angie's List had its first profitable year since founding in 1995 in 2015.

> In 2013, investors worried that the company had been in business for more than 18 years, yet never had shown an annual profit, and that valuations of the company were unrealistic based on the actual revenue the company produces. But by 2015 growth estimates indicate a significant earnings-per-share growth, with a long-term growth rate at 19%. Combine this with stock estimates rising in 2015 by 13.3%, some Securities research firms such as Zacks Investment Research indicated ANGI is well-positioned for future earnings growth.
AMD's is worse from what little I've read on the subject. Pointing to somebody else who is doing something wrong and using that as an excuse isn't exactly a great defense. AMD could really differentiate themselves here (at least for those who care).

If AMD came out and said they'd open up the source for PSP or allow something like coreboot for those knowledgable enough to install it, every system I ever built from here on out would have Ryzen in it (I even have a system with an old Bulldozer pre PSP days). As it stands I'm just looking at older chips and non x86 chips now.

I'm sure I am in the minority, but I also have some sway in what a lot of people buy in terms of technology, all I need is reason to be AMD's fanboy, and I'll give them every bit of business I can. All I ask is they think of the little guys like me who'd rather have less attack surface in their machines.

I believe a computer should do what the owner asks, no more, no less. When we start getting to the point where manufactures feel like they have just as much control over the system I bought as I do; well I guess it's time to go shovel some shit, because this industry won't be for me anymore.

Debating software patents with silicon valley types is a losing battle. They're the types who would stand to profit from someones non-obvious software invention not being patentable, and so most such people are unsurprisingly against software patents. There's little nuance involved beyond that.

Except Jigsaw does nothing to fix this. Your webservice framework depends on jaxb which depends on activation which depends on JavaBeans (everything depends on JavaBeans). Turns out JavaBeans is in the same module as these GUI toolkits.
Business schools have always been on the more vocational end of the spectrum.

And that there exist many universities that fall short of some ideal of the university education isn't really an argument against the ideal. I'd argue that this is what happens when universities respond to market pressures.
I'll explain it less confrontationaly than you did. First, the argument you presented actually is evidence for what I wrote.

> But the bottom is dropping out of the model because of cord cutters

As I wrote, the market across the board is becoming efficient. This is restating my point. Previously the only option was for cable, now there are other options for consumption. This is increased market efficiency.

> so now they have change and adapt to not getting flat fees for much longer.

Yes they have to change from their previous fee structure, but there are many things they could've changed to that would've supported quality programming. Instead ESPN changed to an advertising model, which doesn't support it. (Ex. Why does HBO get showered with awards year after year? And how do they monetize viewers?).

To understand the difference, imagine a directed graph with a transition between two nodes. You're too focused on the node it's leaving - instead I'd recommend focusing on the node it's arriving at (efficient market advertising model). Regardless of where you come from, if that's where you end up you will quickly produce fast-food content or you'll go under.

ESPNs problem from before is not that they had a subscription model. It's that they had a bundled subscription model. It was bundeled with Cable, and they were making money from people who never watched them. Their revenue was inflated. Rather than trim and find the true medium, they're throwing it all away and going advertising.

Sports can absolutely be supported via expensive subscription (see NFL Game Pass, NFL Sunday Ticket, MLB Packages, ...). Up to $400 / year for it. But ESPN is going a different route. One that will unfortunately turn them into the MTV of sports. But they won't be the only one.
Mp3 was the only option that was relatively mature and had good enough compression ratios for what we needed (as I remember). Anything more computationally expensive was completely off the table.
Definitely, and this is not a conspiracy.

The ME is used for the WoL and EEE features of the Intel NICs.

(EEE is Intel's energy efficient ethernet, allowing it to keep TCP sockets open even if the main processor is asleep).

Additionally, the ME builds its own network connections.

It's also why I stopped using any and all Intel NICs, they ended up resetting every few seconds if the ME was partially disabled.
> AFAIK the headless feature is only available in beta right now which versions out to 59.

Headless is pretty stable on Linux in 58. 59 is really when headless became usable on Mac. Still in beta on Windows.
Starting to believe me now that far more systems are affected?

We had a little subthread a few hours ago where you still claimed most consumer and server systems would be unaffected.
The Optane Memory hardware is a NVMe SSD. The caching is done in software, and Intel's caching software is locked to their most recent consumer-grade platform (and Windows 10 64-bit, and only caching the boot volume). Using caching is optional; it also makes for a very fast primary storage drive, if you can survive on a mere 32GB. Or you can use non-Intel caching software for Windows or Linux and then the only system requirement for Optane Memory is that you have PCIe lanes to connect it to.
The difference is that person now has to sell their idea packaged in a finished product to see any return on their idea. If you could patent it and license it, you could make money on the idea while leaving the work of developing a polished product to the experts at delivering products to end users.

While not exactly what you were suggesting, DDR4 ECC DIMMs and SO-DIMMS are already "pin compatible" with non-ECC modules. So it is straightforward to design a CPU and motherboard that support both, with a control bit in the IMC allowing the BIOS to enable/disable ECC checking (and the extra ECC byte lanes) iff ECC modules are installed (and that's what AMD did with Ryzen).

It is fair to say that Intel blocks ECC on its desktop i7 parts for non-technical/business reasons (i.e. so they can sell a higher-profit E3 Xeon if you want DRAM data integrity beyond what non-ECC memory can provide).
Tptacek is telling you that the most secure phone is iOS. If what's most important to you is price (and, therefore not security), yeah, you might find something else to be more compelling. That fact your different value system leads to a different choice has no relevance to the discussion.

If your assumption is that Android + yubikey is as good as iOS, you need to state that. Tptacek disagrees with that elsewhere in this thread, anyway.
The problem is that your private key stored in ~/.ssh/id_rsa can be read by any user-level application. The private key is even vulnerable if you passphrase encrypt it. See our deep dive into the threat model: https://blog.krypt.co/why-store-an-ssh-key-with-kryptonite-9...

This is why we move it off the computer and onto a phone. The security is comparable to using a Yubikey. I'm not sure why you say your phone is less secure than your laptop. On the phone, apps are sandboxed and the private key never leaves the Kryptonite sandbox.
That's correct. So as he wove his way through Photoshop, our downloads would sputter and stall.

Have you researched this? It's quite a strong claim.

On average, there are large differences between the two org types, in legal structure, vision, goals, funding, motivation, etc.

It would be quite peculiar if all of these differences has zero net effect. It'd be like flipping a coin and having it land on the narrow edge.
I am not sure about your backtracking point. Sudoku can be solved by Integer Programming (i.e. a special subset of Linear Programming) and this does not require any kind of backtracking.
It was probably 1999 that I wrote the first version. Ogg was still in development at that point. I know I considered a few codecs but mp3 was relatively well supported with 'reference' codecs.

I have mixed feelings about this, when you are dealing with millions of dollars, you should understand what you are buying, you cannot blindly trust your banker.
> The problem with calling us "designed" is that it makes it sound like we are all built to some universal specification.

It's called DNA. We all share most of the same blueprint, and therefore, the same design.

You're problem with "designed" may be that it implies a "designer", i.e. a God. Whether you choose to believe such a concept makes no difference to this subject. There is no need to approve or deny such a thing in this conversation. The end result is the same.

Because we each have very similar DNA, we each have very similar bodies. There are clear differences with each individual, some of these differences come from differences in an individual's DNA, others come from the course of the individual's development. A person's range of motion is heavily dependent on the latter, especially when certain muscles are underutilized.
I didn't mean wait for Jigsaw. I meant: Assume jigsaw breaks maven, i.e. it's not compatible and there's no easy ugly workaround without runtime errors. That'd mean, my place - and pretty much every place - has to wait at least a year or more, until all dependencies are ported to jigsaw. If all dependencies get ported. This sounds way too similar to the whole Python2/Python3 mess to me to be a good idea.

The AMT can't be completely disabled, so people might not have to explicitly enable it to be vulnerable to AMT exploits.

> It's not like every Intel system is silently waiting for an exploit payload.

It's not like it's Intel makes it easy to navigate their CPU and motherboards feature set. Manufacturers are also known to do a bad job on their BIOS/EFI. And given that the computers most likely to be vulnerable are those most likely to be used by businesses and professionals, the damage potential is pretty staggering. But yeah, netbooks are probably safe.

It's a chilling reminder that AI taking over humanity doesn't need to happen with giant killer robots. Instead it could be AI turning some people against others. This is already happening across the board. The stock market, loans, police face detection, and now, sentencing, all are owned by humans, but more and more controlled by AI.
Maybe they would rise. In that case, why do they feel the need to do it?
That makes sense. Looking forward to the development of your product then!
Of course you need threads even with async. When you code blocks for CPU reasons, like handling a heavy HTTP request with lots of calculations, you don't want to stop serving other requests.

I have found spamming Google for LaTeX solutions to be really unsatisfactory and recently decided that I'd rather just learn my tools properly. This very very quickly led me away from LaTeX and over to plain TeX.

I have read through about 2/3 of the TeXbook so far and currently am writing my thesis in it. So far it's been really enjoyable! That's not something I could say about my past struggles with LaTeX.

Maybe once I have TeX down really pat, I'll peek back over into LaTeX, but for now I really don't see a need.

Getting a handle on the typographic primitives that TeX offers makes a huge difference. I've actually found it surprisingly easy to handcraft whatever macros I need. Though I do also use a the amstex macros.

Admittedly, it's easy to end up with a horrid mess of macros if you're not careful, but a bit of forethought and experience with frontend design patterns goes a long way.

One thing I haven't figured out yet is how to deal with CJK languages nicely.
Like it or not, IMO there is little reason to expect this to have a material effect on the stock price, as it is not a product recall, and it probably will not seriously impact Intel's competitive position (given its main competitor is doing something similar).
Not just that, but Lua is very conservative about adding new language features so a lot of quality of life things are missing - no ternary operator, verbose lambda syntax, the incoherent mixing of arrays and dictionaries, bad default scoping, stuff like that.
Is proprietary code even allowed on GitHub?
I use twisted with Python 3 all the time, espacially with crossbar.io. Reports of twisted not being ported to V3 are greatly exagerated.
Just keep a list of interested potential investors.

As a founder you should be explaining the business to everyone and listening to their reactions. That means everyone - including other-sector people, non-tech people, your family, your friends, your neighbors, random shopkeepers, people in the lift, people in the carpark, people on the plane. If they are bored or zone out, you are doing it wrong. Improve.

For ideas with strong potential and decent capital requirements, once you've got the pitch down write a decent investment prospectus document aimed at larger scale institutional investors. Find some and test their reactions. Don't spend too much of your time on the small fries.

For ideas with minimal capital requirements, don't waste time raising just execute and beg/borrow/steal until you get cashflow positive.
Not quite. If you're interested take a look at,

I must admit I don't have any comprehensive stats to hand, even the WHO have only recently compiled worldwide occurrence stats but not correlation / causation stats.

However from a programming paradigm, which would you prefer? Bugs cleaned up only because "someone" reported them, or because you use CI and can fix the problem at source, can measure testing coverage, etc, etc. I think most programmers agree that the proactive systemic testing system is better than ad hoc.

> But you're still wrong on this drop being necessary, I think. You can do it just fine in a language with GC that also allows you to allocate a block of memory that is not considered by the GC.

I think it's a bit disingenuous to say a "GC language compiled a GC language" when the compiler used non-GC portions of the language to do it. You're right, I should have said "A language which can work without a GC" instead of "a non-GC language;" but I think the spirit of my comment was clear.

That said I think what you said above is right, and non-GC code is really only necessary in the hot parts of an application (and applications that can't use dynamic allocation for whatever reason, but that's another discussion). Rust is even working on adding GC support [1] (albeit very slowly, as they should). That said non-GC languages (or at least the ability to write code that doesn't use a GC) is still necessary in many industries for many reasons; that isn't going to change for a long time, if ever.
