The only time I notice my surroundings is when 1) they intrude upon my coding, or 2) when I'm not coding (or thinking about code).

Problem 1 is why I personally dislike open offices, and 2 is usually a consequence of meetings or boredom with the current problem. I'd rather be working on something interesting than be comforted by my surroundings because of boredom...
Ok. So lets explain this ELI5-style.

Currently people use passwords then add TOTP to increase security.

FIDO wants to improve the situation so they introduce UAF to replace passwords, and they replace U2F to replace TOPT.

What exactly is your problem? They did exactly what you wanted, they invented UAF to improve on the first factor. For high security application you can add a second factor. Are you arguing there is never a case for a second factor?

I really don't understand your issues.
Do you do scrum where you work?
Sometimes the goal isn't to "convert" people to your political or religious views. There is immense utility in reinforcing that there are intelligent and congenial people (who deserve the benefit of the doubt) that disagree with you on important issues.

I think pushing "controversial" discussions to the edges of polite society has been shown to make us more culturally ignorant.
Regarding MD5.
I advice people from using MD5 in new designs even if it is for HMAC-MD5. Not because that construct is broken (which it isn't), but because we add yet another dependency on an algorithm we in general consider too weak to use.

Do you agreee with that advice?
Hurry up! :)
Indeed you are.
Explicitly talking about politics is exactly what everyone who doesn't have any access to long levers is doing. Using those levers to accomplish something doesn't necessarily look like "doing politics". It might instead look like writing the bitcoin whitepaper, or running some tor exit nodes, or just improving wikipedia.
Is this social motif?
This is the (very) rare case in which a cite to Dual_EC makes some sense.

> It details precisely why a right wing government needs to invest in welfare and social care

I was gobsmacked when I read this, as most of the Hayekians I know argue to let the poor/weak fend for themselves, as it would be better to let the weak perish than to steal from the strong to protect them. I may actually have to read it now!

Also, I feel it's unreasonable for those without property to respect property rights if they gain no benefit from doing so (other than not being a victim of State violence).
It's not that politics don't matter, it's that political discussions are not just useless - they're harmful.

Political discussions almost always become emotional, rather than intellectual, discussions. They work on the wrong part of the brain.

Virtually everyone takes absurd positions and then viciously attacks their fellow human beings who take a different absurd position.
DOH.

I was going based on the thinking that the full email string would need to be known in order for it to be changed. My brain's a bit foggy right now so I can't properly think it through.

So does BGP consider the amount of time it takes to traverse each hop, or are routing tables built only based on the minimum number of hops it takes to reach each destination?
Same here. I've tried the outside thing and I think I'm just far more productive and far happier if I keep my outside time free of work.

And there's the fact that my desk is set up to be comfortable, protect against RSI, and have everything I need available at hand. Just sitting back down brings back where I was the previous day.

I like having talking meetings outside. But programming? Never again.
Except they are different. Gresham's Law--bad money chases out good. We do have a problem with fiat and who controls the issuance, no argument there. However, "money" or "currency" is also based on history. The dollar has a reasonably good history up until 1971 when Nixon took it off the partial gold standard, the value plummeted.

Consider this: Would divers risk their lives to recover paper money from a sunken 1930s era shipwreck? Yet for gold or silver, they will readily do that. I'm not gold bug, but I can understand why--gold and silver have a loooong history as stores of wealth. That's probably more important than any other consideration--how long has the "money" been "money?"

I assume it's not mentioned to keep the article brief, but most devices these days support MTU sizes greater than 1500 bytes. Jumbo Frames[1] allow for ethernet packets of up to 9216 bytes.

Since they have to be fragmented back down to 1500 for devices that don't support them, however, it's typically only used in closed internal networks, like a SAN. People typically see about a 5% to 10% bump in performance.

Why are they "supposed to" do that? It's in the interest of society as a whole to make sure that everyone is looked after in their old age.
But it's not as if China, India, etc haven't benefited from the West's carbon-fueled economic growth. It was that economic growth that led to all the various technologies that they've imported. The West has also borne, and is bearing, the costs of R&D on green energy.

If we are talking about "inequities", I would say these countries took an "unfair" leap in technological development because of us, so it is not entirely unreasonable to say the disadvantage of less carbon use has been more than offset by tech transfer. Especially since China and India are both notorious for not respecting IP rights.

If not for the West, neither of these countries would even be in a position to want higher carbon emissions.

The solution is to move into a technical but client-facing role. Presales Engineering and Professional Services are great ways to be hands-on, but also tie your work directly to human interaction and business problems.

Personally I do not enjoy seeing politics posts in HackerNews, similarly how I don't enjoy seeing them in /. or /r/programming. Specially because they are usually US politics and I live outside that country.

I definitely enjoy my share of the circus that is happening in that space. I watch CNN usually in evenings while having dinner as a form of "light entertainment". And in the mornings I do have my share of political news reading on my preferred sources.

But when I get to a science or technology forum, I love to see science or technology news and information. Thus when suddenly the majority of items are related to politics, it turns me off.
Password Management on MacOS: KeepassXC, KeeWeb or MacPass
I want to begin to use a password manager on Mac OS.
Keepass is not an option for me as I don't want to install Mono.
Also, Keepassx doesn't seems to be updated anymore.
I'm hesitating: KeepassXC, KeeWeb or MacPass.
Which one do you suggest?
I'm starting from scratch and my need is only for one computer and maybe a iphone later.
The irony in this entire thread is that sufficiently broad technical leadership is indistinguishable from organizational politics. It's all about talking stakeholders into doing "the right thing".

I would love to just be able to solve Big Problems by hacking on them, but the more experience I get, the more I find that the biggest roadblocks involve changing minds, not changing code.
Are you kidding me? It's not that I'm not political, but this isn't a place for doing anything with politics, it's for hacking and talking about that. Go away with this crap.

Politics is OK to get into but I skip over any comments that directly provoke flame wars. I don't flag articles but I sure did flag this. And I deleted a personal insult from that first part. What are you thinking??

> it derives m=E/c², not E=mc². Einstein was thinking about fundamental physics, not bombs.

Although I know the E=mc² formulation makes more sense from an "E²=(pc)²+(mc²)²" point of view, the author had a kind of striking way to put their point. It's as if the war managed to intertwine itself in culture so strongly it twisted the perception of the entire general public on issues of fundamental physics!
"They" like to say yes, that we scrum. Practically I have a manager that calls biweekly meetings and hands out work to be done in one or two weeks. Which usually is more than enough, but I manage to get everything done "on time".
Should you ask people here? I think it's better to ask this question of actual entrepreneurs than engineers. I wonder if there's any successful startup (assuming you're not hoping to build a lifestyle business) that got there without code debt.

I think the hard part is the search for the product that solves problems. Not technical debt.

The US has to pick model for right or wrong. Saying it's in everyone's best interests to look after people is totally true, but it's not really the design of the US social system. The US is free market, in a free market you look after yourself and in return are a little less regulated and/or taxed. Both work, but yeah...in the current model, it anticipates people looking after their own retirement plans.

In my opinion, most people are incapable of planning for their future. I've probably done a great job in comparison to others, but I often wonder if it's going to be enough.
Good info! Sorry, our accounts keep getting rate limited.

I personally like to follow my own index fund portfolio. Then when I first started index investing there was about a 90 day period where I had to research and figure out what I wanted my own portfolio to be.

Also index funds do change over time. For example if you have more taxable income you will want a more tax advantaged index fund portfolio. You'll also want a special portfolio for your retirement accounts, and maybe something for your kid's 529 plan, etc...

There are many popular index fund communities for these reasons, plus lots of people find investing fun and interesting and like to learn more about it and help others.

Because their union negotiates benefits on behalf of only their members, not society at large. That's not meant to imply general social security is bad or should be done away with.

>So what if low birth rates break their system?

Birth rates fund our social security system. It keeps the "Ponzi" scheme going.

I think I'm having a hard time with it being called a Ponzi scheme. Had an individual invested the amount they put into SS into the market, it would not be a Ponzi scheme, and is essentially a 401K. Is SS is only a Ponzi scheme because of the way the government manages it?

If I take a step back and government takes money an invests it into the growth of the GDP, is it no longer a Ponzi scheme?

TLDR: "If there is such a thing as a healthy bubble, this is it. To be sure, regulators should watch out that cryptocurrencies do not become even more of a conduit for criminal activity, such as drug dealing. But they should think twice before coming down hard, particularly on ICOs. Being too spiky would not just prick a bubble, but also prevent a lot of the useful innovation that is likely to come about at the same time."
The article states that bitcoin transactions take hours. Is that true?
>>Its international politics. Its well understood that democracy have a very hard time making long term promises.

Very few countries in the world are a direct democracy where this would be a concern.

In contrast, representative democracies like the US are very resistant to sudden shifts in populist sentiment. Specifically for the US, the entire government is structured to prevent drastic changes in policy based on the whims and daily desires of the populace. For example, it is part of the reason why Congress is split into two houses.

In contrast, a dictatorship is unreliable, because all decisions are made by one person, whose mood swings can result in lots of unpredictability.
Yeah I used to be skeptical as well

In a perfect world, that is, if no service stored passwords with risible security, just remembering 2 or 3 strong passwords would be workable

Instead, since we live in a word where several system developers are inexperienced or just plain idiots, there is a need for passwords to be disposable

Password manager are worthy because they allow you to keep several different passwords and the strong password they require hopefully is not stored as MD5 anywhere.

I wonder if we will see more software including query based input like their charts, and what sort of speed improvement we could see? At first I was not excited to type something where I could click a couple buttons, but then I recognized the other enhancements such as applying a filter right away.

I'm not convinced it's better just because it has machine learning on the back end, but if excel would learn how I want my graphs made from how I manually adjust the graphs (adding axis labels and a title, color preferences, never a 3d bar or pie chart), that'd be a nice enhancement. I'm sure there's a setting, but I haven't searched for it.
As a recent physics PhD in a European country, I went through Landau's books a number of times during my education. They were recommended (and sometimes required) during my undergrad years, and it was a bit of a struggle. During graduate study I frequently found them concise and enlightening on some point I had forgotten, and I still use them as a reference every now and then.

I think the same quality of efficiently getting straight to the point, without extraneous digressions or any hand holding, which makes them so highly valued by working physicists (at least in my experience) also makes them completely useless for self study without the necessary background knowledge. The Landau books aren't pedagogical, in any modern sense of the word. They're simply a concise, self-contained and rather well structured treatment of basic theoretical physics, almost unparalleled in their scope.

Don't let them turn you off physics, though. You were simply unlucky in that you picked perhaps the worst possible famous textbooks for your particular goal. If it helps, most physics undergrads hate them with a passion too.
