Had the classic 'what happens when you type a URL in the address bar of a browser' last week. I don't think any recent grad could compete with the things I even half remember on that one.

I think that boys just plain will prefer the cars over the doll if you give them the choice, regardless of culture. The story of David Reimer is instructive. The boy at 22 months had a botched circumcision. So the doctors just chopped off his balls and made a vagina for him. He had a horrible time becoming a "girl" and as soon as he was told he was a boy as a teen immediately reverted and lived the rest of his life as a boy as much as he could. The reason his parents told him anyways was because he threatened to take his own life, hating to see the therapist who was trying to make him act like a girl.

This is because women remain looked down upon.

(Unacceptable, but a disturbing reality today)

A woman presenting up, masculine is seen as tough, bold, generally positive terms.

A man, doing anything feminine, is presenting down.

Of course, all of that is silly, rooted in cultural norms too.

We have a lot of work to do before people get past this sorry state of affairs.

People should do what they can and feel good doing.
Great question! Once I moved back to Romania after living in UK, Germany, and Israel for a while, I was pleasantly surprised how paying with a credit card here is almost instant – we even have contactless PoSes everywhere.

You may as well say that a game is not free if it poses a challenge, since then you pay in frustration. When we're talking about prices, "free" refers to money. You're certainly right that there are other interesting axes you could examine games on, but I don't see how they belong on the game's price tag.
If you consider tests and documentation excess baggage, you are not qualified to have anything to do with things as simple as sort functions.
You don't start with a salary and then choose a city. The city determines the salary. If you can find a salary at all, it's likely to be in a high COL city.

Of course I'd love to make $120k from somewhere that buys a nice house. That is, far as I can tell, not an option. I can save while living in a high COL city and then buy a house for cash in a low COL city, but I'd still need a job to pay property taxes/groceries/transportation. In cheap areas, the pickings are slim.

> There is a huge need for InfoSec/NetSec professionals

I know far more people that moved from Security to development than the other way around. Security work has become less pioneering and more routine. The fun part of security is learning, not work.

The demand for developers increased faster than infosec and so did salaries.
I have to agree with this. However it's not because it's aggressive. It's because he's recommending eating at all. When you eat very little, your body's metabolism drops to match the new standard energy intake.

A much preferable recommendation would be to simply water fast for the same time. Lose even more weight (mostly water weight), then eat normally. Much more natural in the context of evolution. Periods of eating, periods of fasting. The practice is as old as time itself.
Just to make sure no one gets the wrong impression: You still have a single point of compromise, as having sufficient access to your machine would allow an attacker to do anything from intercepting your TOTP code to stealing your session or just sending requests from your device. U2F doesn't help with this aspect either, it just adds phishing resistance.

The difference lies in the amount of effort an attacker would have to go through. A compromised password manager database including TOTP secrets effectively gives them access to everything at once, whereas any other kind of compromise would require a lot more effort to get everything, and would probably increase the odds of detection.

It's also a good way to hedge against types of compromise where only your password manager is affected, from vulnerable browser extensions (see LastPass, among others) to the possibility of weak crypto (which would be especially devastating for password managers that use centralized online storage) or even backdoors.
When this article refers to the term "modern C++" it seems to be talking about Andrei Alexandrescu's now 16 year old notion of modern C++ [1], not the C++11 and newer notion [2].

[1] Addmittedly, Andrei's notion is still completely relevant today (and still, imo, the best C++ book available) but I don't think it's what most people think of when they hear the term "modern c++" these days. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_C%2B%2B_Design

He's talking about friday's landing that came down very hard and used up pretty much all the emergency crush core in the legs, because it came down on the side of the ship, then overcorrected to the other side, then corrected again and touched down (speculation, but pretty obvious when you look at the scorch marks on the ship)

Yesterday's "jump" for the last few feet was probably due to the ship going up and down with the waves and the rocket not expecting it
There's an old joke about eating etc habits and longevity, it goes like this:

- Doctor, if I don't eat any sugar or salt, don't smoke, don't drink, don't have any sex, will I live a hundred years?

- Well, even if you don't, it will sure feel like a hundred.

Meaning: food is one of the pleasures of life. What the hell is the point of living to a ripe old age if your life is going to simply suck for longer?

And then of course you read some interview with a super-centenarian who goes "my secret is that I drink a small glass of wine after lunch and smoke a cigarette before going to bed" and realise that it really doesn't matter what you do, you just won't live forever, so enjoying your limited time on the earth is a much more realistic goal.
Worth noting: Many authors will be happy to email you a copy of their paper. People understand that not everyone's library can pay the hundreds of thousands needed for subscription fees. Research Gate has this functionality built in. Also, everyone likes to be cited :)

It's not a learning material in the sense that random outsiders won't get much out of it, but not a pointless emotional outburst either.

Depends on network situations. Here in Perth I'll get a beep immediately on Paywave, but still have to wait a few seconds for Payment Approved to appear on the screen. Some stores seem to have really terrible mobile reception for their mobile payment terminals.

Well instead general password without password manager assumes the fact someone remembers that password. (and perhaps reusing that password.) Using password manager (with different password for each service) plus TOTP would serve its purpose. You still have to enter the code, so it still require you to "have" that code somehow which makes it no different than provisioning multiple devices which many 2FA systems won't prevent, perhaps other than hardware TOTP devices.
That is what I've been using as well but it would be nice with a more lean and lightweight system. Otherwise virsh, etc is really good, much more reliable then Docker from my experience.

No. The author counted learning (perhaps including going to meetups and watching DefCon videos) in it.

He clearly stated he loves learning. The amount of stuff you can learn around every possible vulnerability is virtually unlimited.

From the paper: "Because stolen cards can be used without knowing the PIN, by our definition, Chip and PIN is broken. We do not believe that the system is broken beyond repair, but neither is it the case that a simple fix will suffice, due to the unmanageable complexity of EMV."

Here in Australia, pretty much every retailer now has "paypass", which is the .au branding for contactless credit card payments.

Most payment terminals are connected to 3G or 4G mobile networks, and from tapping the card to confirmation of payment takes two seconds tops.

Transactions over $100 do require the PIN, but you can usually enter that on the terminal without being required to insert your card.

I think it's worth making a distinction between their public and private conduct.

To be specific: I am okay with them skirting regulatory procedures. I consider this an extension of "move fast and break things". I am not okay with their purportedly rampant sexual misconduct. It is morally reprehensible and has no business value.

Roping both types of conduct under "their behavior" is a step too far, IMO.

Indeed. I don't even care exclusively about the sexual harassment solely as harassment; the problem is Uber was treating its team badly. The "jacket thing" was as bad as the rest, even though it wasn't harassment under any definition, for this reason.
> The irony is that the author is a netpen person, which is sort of infamously the least demanding specialty in offensive security.

I googled, but I didn't manage to find out what "netpen" is. Network Penetration? I'd assume that virtually all relevant security stuff is network related these days so I'm still confused. Which are the other specialties and why are they more demanding?

Maybe a song would do?

I mean, there is some relatively obscure but otherwise great music praising the dream of space and the work of people involved. See e.g.:

- https://youtu.be/6zotaRLROtw - A Toast For Unknown Heroes

- https://youtu.be/GbL3oNEDvJ0 - The Ballad of Apollo XIII

- https://youtu.be/ab_mH8R0KTM - One Way to Go (possibly the single work of art I ever found that plausibly praises capitalism)

(lyrics googlable by song title)

Also see pretty much all the work of Leslie Fish and Julia Ecklar.

I feel that now might be a time to start developing songs for the coming second Space Age - and hopefully to reinforce the dream this way. If anyone here does music / songwriting (or knows someone who does), I urge you to try (or suggest it). We need it :).

Also, to lighten the mood:

(This verse is dedicated to the management of Morton Thiokol.)

So first let's pray to Vulcan, ugly god of forge and flame,
And also wise Minerva, now we glorify your name,
May you aid our ship's designers now and find it in your hearts
To please help the lowest bidders who've constructed all her parts!

So pray to great green Mother Earth and the grim old god of Space,
And the gods of flame and metal whom we've summoned to this place.
Oh you gods of flight and physics, now you have us in your care;
We hope that you will listen to a rocket rider's prayer.

3 Ways to Know You're on the Path to Content Marketing Success
Haswell is generally considered 4-wide [1]. As far as I heard, Denver really is VLIW. I don't think there are many in-order [2] CPUs that are that wide. I think the article is using superscalar loosely (as in 'can execute more than operation per cycle' which is true for VLIW, although they are techinically all part of the same instruction).

[1] apparently it can sustain 5 instructions per clock given some very specific instruction mix.

[2] or out of order, really, Power8 being the exception.
I don't mean to be evasive, but there are a couple of reasons why I'm uncomfortable answering such direct questions that may involve internal procedures:

1. I'm not nearly knowledgable enough about the overall refurb process to give you an in depth answer. The best answer I could probably point you towards is this article[1] quoting our President Gwynne Shotwell. It won't give you the specifics you're looking for, but it will give you an idea of the costs in relation to a new build. Seeing as labor is a fairly large cost component of the rocket overall, this gives you some idea of the potential extent of refurbishment vs building a new rocket.

2. Even if I did have the requisite knowledge to answer your question, those kinds of internal procedures aren't something I could share. My apologies.

As to what breakthroughs make this sort of inspection and reuse possible, and I'm not saying this to be pithy, the biggest component is simply that the stage lands on a solid base rather than being dunked, or slammed into to be more accurate, highly corrosive salt water. Reusability isn't so much a function of any huge advancement in inspection so much as the ability to execute a controlled landing of the first stage. Although there are quite a few advancements in metallurgy and materials science, not to mention NDT procedures, that do increase the life span of components.

I know this probably does a very poor job of answering your questions but it's the best I can do.
