If they're willing to invest a small amount of money it means they think it's interesting and they'd like to basically 'bookmark' it by putting up a small amount of capital in order to receive your company updates and have a small piece of the upside if things go well, but they don't have enough understanding of the product or conviction that it will work to drop everything and make a huge investment in it. And I don't think that's a bad thing at all.

E.g. there are a lot of folks who own a few hundred bucks worth of Bitcoin, so is it wrong that they haven't yet invested a large portion of their net worth into blockchain/crypto? I don't think so, I think it just means they're dipping a toe in the water and trying to get a feel for what's going on.
i don't want to repeat myself ... but Bruce Schneier's PasswordSafe and only Bruce Schneier's PasswordSafe is the real deal!
But it's not "just" a typesetting program. The TeXlive installation includes a huge amount of packages, supporting all kinds of typesetting, including maths, music sheets, pictures (TikZ), support for making posters, presentations, various little enhancements like microtype etc. etc.

I am quite happy to dedicate 1GB to that. Especially in a world, where random websites tend to dump 3-4MB on me (with liberal use of adblockers) to render a few paragraphs of text.
Globalization is inevitable in that we're not going to un-invent or abandon use of the internet, containerization, or any of the other technological things that allow the existence of global supply chains. Technologies are sometimes lost as a result of social collapse (eg Damascus steel) but they're never willingly decommissioned.

Globalization doesn't have to mean homogenization, though. It's interesting to think about alternative possibilities that are not bound up with the centralization of wealth as a condition of production.
It's coming shortly (days), it's a WIP that needs significant polish, but the core result is there.
“Museum collection” – exhibition of one of the famous Ukrainian artists
Fairly sure that they'd be blocked from issuing a new cert with the same key?
I posted further down in this thread about my puzzle

http://www.loyalty.org/~schoen/rsa/

which is nominally about a particular vulnerability (common factor attacks), but actually if you're interested in this topic, I suggest that you read this piece and try to solve the puzzle, because you will really get a sense of the size of the numbers involved, and what particular kinds of arithmetic operations you have to do when using RSA. I even have a section about estimating the number of prime numbers of a particular size (e.g. 512-bit primes, which are the secrets associated with 1024-bit RSA public keys). As other people have said, the size of the numbers involved will make it impractical to list all of them or crack keys by brute force. My puzzle and the associated discussion might make that a little more concrete for you!

(Although tptacek might also want you to know that RSA is obsolescent, and more modern cryptography does not actually use prime factorization, but rather other kinds of arithmetic problems.)
You're correct about the header. The part you're missing is that it's entirely possible for the site operator to get a new, unrevoked certificate that uses the same underlying private key issued to themselves by a different (or even the same) CA. Such a certificate would be accepted just fine by browsers which have that key pinned. HPKP pins public keys, not individual certificates.

> 3. They're promoting cloud vaults and hiding local vaults, and the Windows version of 1Password has apparently never used local vaults.

Windows had local vault, I used the local vault version synced via dropbox for years.
Will continue to be supported for 6 and 7. Nothing beyond that.
This is so painfully accurate.
There's a list of nine different types of malleability here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0062.mediawi...

And if you want to see what a malleability attack looks like at the byte level, I analyzed one three years ago: http://www.righto.com/2014/02/bitcoin-transaction-malleabili...
Apple really got this right with the W1 chip and the new iCloud pairing. BeatsX, AirPods, and Beats Solo 3 just work across all your devices.
Agreed. I find that sometimes when I'm having a really heavy day and I look around at my incredibly fortunate existence, I then feel shitty for feeling shitty. A bad feedback loop.
Much less contradictory evidence is needed than positive evidence. Arguably you only need one observation to invalidate the hypothesis.
You're welcome! I've consistently enjoyed taking part in ice-breaker events like these. Until now, I've only done them in business related events. At the last tech meetup I went to, before the first talk, a lot of people were already seated and not socializing with anyone! Maybe tech-oriented icebreakers are just the thing to push people out of their comfort zone for just a bit.

If anyone has ideas about this, please comment or reach out :)
Chester Bennington: Linkin Park vocalist 'took his own life'
"And your code will be supported for ever unlike the framework's that will make your code obsolete within a year or so."

This is a confusing assertion. How does using a framework make your software unsupported in ways that not using a framework would not? i.e. if I build an application, whether I use a framework or not, and then I stop touching it, forever, why is the non-framework code more resilient to not breaking in the future?

The framework will keep evolving, but you're under no obligation to upgrade, if you don't need to keep developing. It seems silly to complain about the code you didn't have to write.

There are trade offs when using existing software to do things you want to do, sure. But, you get the core web app functionality you needed to implement, anyway, and it's been tested by a lot more developers than your code likely ever will be. In fact, I'd argue compatibility with a framework will be better than implementing it yourself, assuming you cover the same amount of functionality in each app; again, because of the heavier testing a widely used framework gets.
Print model consisted from many parts (bricks) directly is little complex task. Think, you need export model from LeoCAD in some 3D mesh (obj, stl or 3ds) and then need make some optimization (remove hidden faces, etc.)

You'd think so given that Symantec believes the key is compromised, but that's actually not the case. I actually saw a fairly interesting discussion about this over on the mozilla.dev.security.policy mailing list just the other day: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.security...
I have the Mac and the Windows licenses for 1Password. Windows 1Password 4 is a nightmare to use with its terrible UI and its buggy Chrome plugin integration.
Why is 'selling poison instead of drugs' even a logical scare-tactic? Wouldn't even the shadiest of dealers want to keep their customers/hosts/victims around to, you know, keep bleeding money?

There are many such loopholes.
Burundi Robotics Team Vanishes After U.S. Competition
Cool. Thanks! I worked on a UDP congestion avoidance algorithm that had bandwidth/latency feedback built into the protocol and had to deal with some of the same issues.
Often I think of Canada having the same problems as Arizona, but in reverse (cold instead of hot). Except it sure is convenient that the coldest part of the day is when everyone is asleep.
I have it and it's terrible IMO.
The real problem with "The Company is a Family" is enmeshment and the resulting lack of boundaries. The company has an issue, so you need to make sacrifices to resolve it.

I'm not opposed to spending time and effort - even extraordinary amounts of it - to helping the company. But as an employee, I make trades, not sacrifices. Sacrificing for the company makes my working conditions worse, and so I will look elsewhere if I'm not fairly compensated for it (which wouldn't be sacrifice now, would it?)
Dread Pirate Roberts was brought down by OPSEC using basic investigation skills (correlations between one online profile and his website from stackexchange and a security flaw on his hidden service website). I think its probably just good investigating this time.

See https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/10/how-the-feds-too... for more information about dread pirate Roberts.
A big problem in the mobile app ecosystem is that users don't routinely download 10-100meg apps. Most users have 6-12 apps they've already downloaded and use routinely and then say "Eh, no thanks" to more. This is why it's so hard to break into the App Store as an indie developer.

I can think of at least two instances in the last week where I've had a desire for the functionality offered by a big-name product (Groupon and Zillow), went to their mobile website, was confronted with a nearly-nonfunctional mess and a prompt to download their app, and then said, "Eh, I don't care enough to bother and wait for it to download."
Not just with LOOP, RETURN works with every standard iteration construct.
But remember, has a non-zero usefulness is a very very different benchmark from a good use of your time to study and learn.
Me too, it's awesome indeed, not sure we could have collaborated without it. Many thanks.
A much better, but politically impossible, solution is basic income. Minimum wage is basically a tax on companies that employ low skill workers to those workers.

There are several problems with this. Why tax only companies that hire lots of workers, regardless of how profitable they are? It punishes those businesses and discourages hiring low skill workers. It also only benefits only those workers and not the unemployed or poor in general.

Basic income taxes all businesses fairly, spreads the benefits fairly, and doesn't create bad incentives. But unfortunately it will always be unpopular on both the left and right. To the right it's socialism. And the left will complain about <Big Business> that isn't paying their employees "fairly" and offloading the cost to the government.
People keep asking why Firefox is losing market share to Chrome and how to reverse it.

The answer to the first question is simple: it doesn't do anything Chrome doesn't, so there's no particular reason to use it unless you care about maintaining competition among browsers.

The answer to the second question is also simple: start acting in the interest of the user! Get rid of the annoying sticky headers. Increase the contrast when it's too low. Increase the font size when it's too small. Word wrap when stuff is going to go off the edge of the page. Narrow the display width when text is too wide.

Yes, I know you can do all of the above with various tools. I've started using the kill-sticky tool in Chrome. But that's not as good as having the browser do it proactively for you. There's a lot of low-hanging fruit there that would be vastly easier then trying to crank another zillionth of a percent out of JavaScript benchmarks. All it takes is the will to do it.
If we could efficiently dig straight-line tunnels under the Northeast Corridor, would it actually make sense to stick a hyperloop in them?

The reason trains are slow on (some of) the Northeast Corridor is because (1) tracks aren't straight (2) population density means you're frequently running through cities and (3) trains stop all over the place, so people can actually get on and off.

The hyperloop sacrifices throughput for speed, but if you ran a conventional-style train fast through straight tracks underground, you could still do DC to NYC in 90 minutes or less, with a much higher throughput. Letting an order of magnitude or two of people make the trip in 2-3 times the time seems way more valuable than letting the smaller number make it faster.
Also in LeoCAD 17.07 added option "Import LEGO Digital Designer", so now you could import LXF-files ;-)

>What liar told you that?

"Liar"? This choice of wording sounds like a quasi-religious attack. Like they're blasphemers or something, that dared misinform about capitalism.

No chance they could be right, or at least just misguided, instead of "liars"? Or that the subject being more complicated than a binary like "designed/emergent"?

Now, to the gist of it. Numerous human societies existed that weren't capitalist. In fact in many countries (of the last 2-5 centuries) capitalism was imposed along with colonialism, and otherwise they continued their ancient ways of living and trading. It is widely accepted that what we call capitalism (as opposed to mere exchange and trade, which existed since forever) was born around 13-14th century in Europe.

In any case, whether it was emergent or designed doesn't mean much. It was both: it was collectively shaped (emergent), by several influences, but it also had clearly designed elements (from contract and labor law, to central banks and monetary policy).

National law for one gives a very precise framework that molds capitalism in a certain shape in different countries, and that law was designed by actual humans with specific purposes and goals in mind.

And of course, something being "emergent" and that thing having "anthropomorphic" elements (if you refer to the second part of my comment) is not contradictory -- if that something emerged by human action within human societies.
There's at least an element of truth to it. The old adage applies - law enforcement can screw up left and right, but a single slip by the folks they're chasing is all it takes.
Yes, probably, for their fresh pituitary glands..!
In what way are they doing less?
Ridiculous list.

"Go" is a joke, it’s not being used in any mobile platform, and never saw a server project in Go (what the hell?).
Not outraged at the laws, outraged at being persecuted.

If you know something is illegal, and it carries a fine of $1,000 and you do it, you get caught, and they fine you $1,000 you can't be like "What?! How DARE you catch me and fine me like the law says?! ARRRGH!"
It depends on the company, they usually don't pay the full meal price. Probably is less and it should be around 1000-1500 a year. I have no idea how are things now with the tickets. (For most people in spain 1000-1500€ is a month salary)
The limit on the number of hyperloop riders is probably a larger limitation. 0.6 miles radius = 1 square mile which could have 50,000+ people.
I think there are two concerns:

1. Accessing 1password.com's from a browser is less secure than using an app. You can choose never to log in but it makes it harder to recommend 1Password to journalists, political dissenters, etc. The most paranoid people need a local vault option.

2. The 1password.com can change to work differently from Dropbox at any time. 1Password for teams already allows recovery without your master password. They can add this to the normal subscription at any time.
Exactly. Someone has to tell the founder of "Uber for vegan dog food" that they have a shitty idea.

Sometimes its harder to crush someones dream than to just lie to them and not respond to their emails later.
Indeed! Requiring _less_ math is a frightening idea to me, in a system of government in which nearly everyone has the right to vote. Properly understanding even the most basic information that informs policy decisions often requires a more advanced understanding than algebra.
Don't kid yourself, MobX comes with it's own baggage. Both are great libraries, both have advantages, both have drawbacks.
That's one strategy, if said shady dealer was planning on being around. Cutting the drugs with a cheaper material, even if it's slightly poisonous, helps margins.
Is it a pretty safe bet to say if VC-s are not calling you asking to invest, there is little chance you'd get them to invest by calling them.

Also there 0 downsides for them just stringing you along as other pointed out. "We are totally interested, lets see your details blah blah" then pawn you off to Hayden.
It says that it could not be replicated :/
It's irrelevant whether I like your opinion or not. My issue is that your point has been heard. ...And heard, and heard, and heard.

This seems like it would go directly against Mozilla's goal of adhering to web standards.
It promotes growth of the marketplace which also allows buying/selling of drugs that do involve victim crimes. If the market was limited to safely produced/trafficked drugs, it would be different. One might even make the argument that shutting down a market that only allowed victimless drugs end up causing harm.
I think it's less poison, and more just ensuring a quality product. Dealers can cut drugs with other cheaper ingredients to increase their profits. Having a reputable seller avoids these sorts of shenanigans.

1Password had vulnerabilities disclosed by Tavis Ormandy within the last year regarding the communication between the application and the browser extension. Those vulnerabilities were part of the so-called "static" product, and were not related to the new cloud functionality.

I really wish folks would just use kdbx4 as a standard. Or any other format, I just want portability.
This is completely device developers' fault. The Bluetooth spec allows for automatic re-pairing. But a lot of devices automatically cycle their device ID on power-up, so you end up with a "different" device.
Why is the 1password login the same as the encryption password for all my other passwords? There is absolutely no reason why I should ever send them my encryption password. If they would make these two passwords separate and handle all encryption/decryption locally, I think that would solve the issue for me.
Usually you get investment from a single shell company whose shareholders are the 1000 investors and the CF platform (which often has golden shares)

Board seat(s) go to a representative of the CF platform.

So technically you don't have a long cap table but it's anyway not a good sign for next rounds so you're, in practice, right.

For instance what if the CF platform goes under? It's magnitudes of orders more likely than a VC...
If someone found a valid use-case or actual market for Bitcoin outside of speculation that provided real value to everyday people. Or if the myriad of issues I've brought up had a solution and wouldn't just get worse with at scale. Until then, it's Beanie Babies with some cool math.

But I can also think in terms of hypotheticals and don't require Bitcoin fail entirely (or the USD to behave perfectly) to judge it, or tell that it's current value is tied to ideological and/or speculative wishfulness.
Dating is very different, I wouldn't pass judgment. There's a real risk of physical harm at every stage. If you're unsure give 'em one more "I'd love to hear from you." before deleting their contact info and moving on.
LSD no. Not enough demand. But I would imagine ecstasy attracts a pretty big criminal element. It's been a popular drug for 30 years
No VC wants to become famous as the VC who said no to the next unicorn. That's another reason they don't explicitly say no. A 'no' is not a judgment on your whole existence, and it's mostly not personal. It's a judgment on your current state.

But most people don't say it that way. They go all "See mom you didn't believe in me but I told you I'd become something".

Well your mom didn't believe in you because you were smoking pot and failing all your classes when you were 16 and had half a foot in prison. Good for you if you managed to turn your life around but don't blame mom for her lack of confidence.
I never got this business in business. If your idea is really good, then you don't need to ask for money.
> And anyhow I'm obviously a lame-ass hypocrite because I use the 1Pass­word Chrome plu­g­in to fill in forms for me, and this means I type the master password into a browser.

Actually, you don't. When you click the 1Password button in your browser, it sends a request to the 1Password app on your computer via localhost, which then opens a pop-up for you to enter your password. You're entering it in the 1Password app, not in Chrome.
Then perhaps they need to choose between their goal of adhering to the letter of web standards and their goal of having anyone use their browser. To be more exact, they need to understand that this is the choice they are making, whether they realize it or not.
>a very different story about the pyramid.

Do you have any sources or articles? I'm a huge ancient Egypt nerd and would love to read more about it - as is unfortunately usually the case with nuanced historical topics, Wikipedia just breezes through the common assumptions (that it was built for Cheops).
