Agreed, though it was three years ago when BTC was less useful. Does phone verification as a service really work now? Also I wonder how many gift cards you can purchase reliably and quickly.

FWIW, it was the same idea as this article, just a 20 mile radius instead of 600. General location was going to be leaked anyway since it's impossible to use the internet without doing so. Even if you rely on Tails with perfect opsec, traffic correlation can narrow down which region you're in. It's possible to figure out your timezone based on the times of your online interactions. If this SecureDrop offshoot was to succeed, it was going to require lots of communication with the press and with users. Much of the value of the service is knowing you're not alone, and that there are people who are incorruptible and can do something with the information. (My plan was to carefully vet the info for legitimacy, carefully anonymize it, then try to contact some special agent via email once I had anything actionable.)
What prevents a tracking script to set a third party cookie first and then set a first party cookie that references the third party cookie. And when the script notices the third party cookie is gone, it sets it again on the next visit? With enough websites using it, you would only lose a couple of visits.

I have so many questions that I'm sure will be cleared up over time.

I am very happy to hear this "classification" happens on-device. I am curious how opaque it is. I assume, like the rest of WebKit the classifier is open source? In Safari, both desktop and mobile, is there a way to see which domains/cookies are blocked/purged or what the time remaining on them is (assuming I don't revisit the page)?

Also, I assume this can easily be beaten be smart ad networks. "Hey, publisher, just use our JS snippet which loads your first-party cookie we may have set previously and then loads a JS URL with that identifier as a query param in the URL along with other fingerprinting info, and we may set that first-party cookie after load too."

I would personally love the option to not send any third party cookies not on the same domain as the frame (or maybe an opt-in) on a per-site basis as I can only see it breaking social logins and other lazily-dev'd items like comment board integration (most SSO uses redirects anyways). Surely if a website wanted to offer its own domain's cookie store, it could (just like you can with local storage).
Yes. Or they could have said that a certain number of votes would be required (equal to 50% of the electorate). So, even if only 51% turned out, the result would stand if 98% of them voted to leave.
Presumably the model will be updated to adapt to a changing threat environment from ad networks.

It depends. I wrote a blogpost about the security implications of UUIDs back in February (https://blog.silentsignal.eu/2017/02/17/not-so-unique-snowfl...) and it shows that not all standard libraries make secure-by-default easy for the developer. I developed a MIT licensed plugin for Burp Suite (https://github.com/silentsignal/burp-uuid) that can help pentesters and security minded developers to detect insecure UUID versions, and even in that plugin I described version 4 UUIDs as "randomly generated, although [their] entropy should be checked".

>this "band-aid" approach

I've been putting food on the table as a .net specialist for fifteen years. My impression is that .Net 4 is a band-aid of Windows-dependent implementations and that .Net Core is some solid tech, using industry's best practises for streams, collections, GC and so on. How do you think they made it portable?

I started to get pissed off at MS at around the time MVC 3 came out. That was not the direction I would have taken. Oh the bloat. Asp.Net Core Mvc is a dream. You start out with nothing, basically. Invent your own conventions.

I'm happy to not touch .Net 4 again. Love Core.

Edit: as parent said though: Microsoft, your tooling has gone from best-of-breed to just-another-messed-up-ide. Please remove everything you copied from Resharper from Visual Studio. It just doesn't work. Try renaming a file. I have never had anything but near-fatal studio errors such as "the refactoring of the file name just didn't work, man, crashing soon...". I want my Resharper back. Can you disable your stuff? I mean, all of it? And please don't ask me to develop server applications on a javascript client such as VS Code. Nut gunna do it.

Ironically I think this comes from more awareness. I don't think people were aware of how many problems there were in the world. Now anyone with the internet can get informed on hundreds, most with no solution, a solution that is blocked from being implemented, or one so complex that no one can agree on said solution.

This article has a clear slant, but I think it has some serious merit for health, awareness, and activism. Excuse the absolutely horrid title as well.

I've struggled with this for years until I realized that I'm the same person at home and at work and actively sought to be this way.

This is in contrast to some peers who have a professional personality (which is still gemslwves, but with restricted access to core identity) and a at-home personality.

> Whose judgment are we supposed to trust about "when sexism actually happens?"

You could start by listening to what Veronika Hubeny said in response to the claim:

"I genuinely did not feel affronted or discriminated by the moderator’s behavior...I don’t a-priori assume that the incident was rooted in sexism....I simply gave him the benefit of doubt that he was so excited by the newly-learned idea of the duality that he couldn’t resist, and that the same might have occurred had the panelist been a male instead of me."

Beyond that you could trust the evidence when indisputable, for example when someone uses the term "mansplaining"; or when someone makes a remark about female drivers; or when there's pay disparity for the same role, etc. Pretty obvious really.

The consequences of jumping the gun is that you discredit someone not deserving of that smear campaign. You seem completely insensitive to the moderator, and the potential harm this could bring his reputation. No doubt you believe he can weather the storm because he's a man. That logic is inferred from your earlier remark that women will be labelled "pushy and aggressive" and shamed if seen to be "taking charge" whereas a man would not because of your perception about his "cultural position". Your divisive expectations are working against you in this argument. You believe the hard exterior of a man's shell is worth a few false flags for the good of drawing attention to sexism. I do not believe that which is why I'm replying.

> "Falsely condemn," again, is language that's unnecessarily harsh and misleading,

Why? In her FB post, Talkington states: "The sexism is beyond blatant."

It sounds like you blatantly want this to be about sexism, because why... you want to find evidence of wrong-doing because you're convinced it's rampant and out of control? Calling out sexism is important, but it should never involve discrediting someone based on a hunch, or Facebook post, or whatever other perceived smoking gun motivates you to jump on the hype train.

Put yourself in the moderator's shoes, consider his more than likely innocence in this matter even on the implicit bias front, and good luck with the empathy and understanding. Bye.

If you accidentally delete some files (even all the files!), won't Syncthing delete all the "backups"?

I don't use Syncthing, I use an rsync script I wrote over 10 years ago, using the --link-dest option to keep incremental backups for around 2 years.

This relies on Zsh's fancy globbing, but the gist of it is:

date=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M)

[for loop over users]

older=( $backups/$user/*(N/om) )

rsync --archive --recursive \
--fuzzy --partial --partial-dir=$backups/$user/.rsync-partial \
--log-file=$tempfile --link-dest=${^older[1,20]} \

Until last December, I would live in rooms well under 100 square feet, for about four years. I won't go into details how I got there, but surprisingly, money wasn't the issue. Anywho. I kind of got used to it and it wasn't half bad in the end (Stockholm syndrome kicking in?). My 2c:

1. Get systematic about tidying your room. A pile of clothes is a lot larger than a tiny column and it takes minutes to arrange. Also, clean up right after the fact (especially if it takes no time) and don't leave things for later - a case in point - food. If you eat in your room, take the plates and stuff to the kitchen ASAP, don't leave it be.

2. Use shelves and boxes. I had most of my stuff in shelves above my table, but it soon got out of control. I got a few shoe boxes (for cables and stuff I didn't need to look at) and bought some transparent plastic boxes (for things I needed to glance at). Use lids for stuff you don't access often.

3. Don't get rid of things you care about. I know, space is precious, I got rid of my lovely Dell computer monitor. But I never got rid of my books, even though they took up most of shelf space (and I read on my Kindle anyway).

4. Cherish common areas. I presume you have a bathroom, kitchen and possibly a living room in the building you live in. Figure out when others are not using these areas and hang out there for a bit. Make your work/leisure station portable. I would often cook while watching YouTube lectures or listening to audiobooks (iPad with a kickstand, bluetooth speaker). Or would go to the living room to watch telly while catching up on email.

5. Use your luggage. I would have a suitcase on top of my wardrobe. I would put my winter clothes during the summer there and vice versa. You'd be surprised how much that helps.

6. Get an air freshener. Sounds a bit weird, but in such an enclosed space, any odour can get irritating, because it's everywhere, because everywhere defines quite a compact area :-) I got something from a Coop, a few quid, plugged in a few times a week.
I presume the volume of the Universe. We can measure average density of residual radiation but getting the total value of energy requires multiplying by volume. Much of the universe's volume may be hidden behind a cosmological horizon (basically, the idea that as the universe's rate of expansion accelerates the greater the distance from us (Hubble's constant), eventually the rate of expansion exceeds the c and thus light from that part of the universe can never reach us, making it unobservable).
I too wondered about it, unless the communication is 100% unidirectional they must have some means of disguising the source of outgoing packets, probably involving at least source IP spoofing.
How are fonts rendered in in GPU-accelerated 2D (as opposed to in 3D).

Also, would a custom UI like the Letterpress game (which as I understand it used a custom OpenGL UI), use a similar technique to this? I'm unclear how subpixel rendering works in the 3D context.
It's strange there are so many coastal routes. Shipping virtually anything by sea has been cheaper than moving it over land for a long time, and that probably includes troops. I would have expected roads to connect coastal settlements inland, not along the coast.

Who cares about some conditional surrender? Japanese military were PURE, ABSOLUTE evil (there were many smaller Nankings happening all over east asia, they regarded everybody else as subhumans and treated them worse than animals). People hate nazis and for good reasons, but even if I take into account concentration camps they look like angels compared to actions of Japanese soldiers in whole east asia prior/during the war, and absolute obedience of orders issued, however immoral they were. Yeah, to me the biggest evil of WW II are Japanese, by huge, massive margins. I will respect that nation when they build memorials for millions of civilians they murdered one by one for no reason at all and apologize+compensate all countries they invaded. Just look at how they think of Koreans even now, which are more like brothers to them, but they consider them subpar humans in every aspect.

If you have this kind of empire of evil, the last thing you want for them is to keep relatively intact after losing the war they started by attacking first in pretty scumbaggish way. No, you want to bring them to their knees, destroy old structures (ie emperor is god and his word is to be followed at all costs, we're not in ancient egypt and this logic had no place in 20th century). You want to somehow make sure that they won't rise in same way in 20 years, like germany did after WW I, with even worse consequences.

Atomic bombs were horrible, we can discuss details about which target would be better (but small targets would probably make them surrender much later), but after all, Japan as a country brought it all upon themselves and this was, given available info the best solution, or to phrase it properly the least bad solution.

I don't get this desperate sensationalist efforts of some people to undermine it. In same vein we can discuss why D-day was such a massacre and why they didn't disembark someplace less fortified and so on. Well it's easy to judge now with all info available, isn't it...

From wikipedia

Starting in the early seventeen century, the Dutch played a dominant role in the early European tea trade via the Dutch East India Company.[18] The Dutch borrowed the word for "tea" (thee) from Min Chinese, either through trade directly from Fujian or Formosa where they had established a port, or from Malay traders in Bantam, Java.

Also interesting speculation as to whether the chinese themselves got it the word from speakers of austro-asiatic languages living in southwest china.

I mean, the stigma has probably been around for tens of thousands of years in the form of masculinity. Bravery and courage probably evolved because men had to do all of the risky hunting and defense and so societies which rewarded make sacrifice and success flourished and the others largely died out.
