An easy cutting applications: Vectric Vcarve Pro. The trouble is that their toolpathing is really only OK for woodworking. They don't have any of the nicer adaptive clearing or constant tool load things. However, in 2.5D, they handle a lot of things very nicely, and very intuitively. I still use it for 2d outline cuts in wood, drag knife work, and 2D vector laser engraving.

edit to add: Don't use SVGs or Illustrator for anything except art. They're really a horrible input for any kind of CNC, better to just use CAD ASAP. Fusion360 is a great free option (for now), and Vectric Vcarve Pro is really nice if you want something really easy in 2.5D.

Let's assume you swiped my card and now you have full contents of my credit card.

For the fraudster to receive any funds from my account they would have to go with that data somehow to my issuing bank and have their transaction request accepted.

My bank will never do this because my card is a secure one. They expect it to generate a signed document listing the details of my transaction along with the name (ID) of the merchant and terminal performing the transaction. The message also certifies that the PIN I entered was successfully verified by my card. The message can only be created by the card using my PIN. This requires the card to be stolen along with the PIN.

The only money I can loose in case my card is stolen without the PIN is up to a floor limit for offline transactions. It's peanuts but it allows for quick transactions for example from vending machines.

The gist of the story is to move to a bank that cares for security.

The other thing I was thinking about was to include the images in an app for young children. And they need to tell which items they are seeing on the screen.

> There is literally zero configuration required for HAProxy. You just store .ocsp files alongside the .pem's

> Yes you need to fetch them regularly. I use the aforementioned shell script to do this.

It does sound like there's some configuration involved after all, namely the configuration of a cronjob, and perhaps adjustments to a bash script. This is something that the majority of server operators will not bother with, though these numbers might look slightly better for HAProxy since that's generally something you see used by more experienced sysadmins. Even with nginx, we're talking about one line of configuration for the actual stapling file - that's not the blocker, it should just work, by default. Fun fact: IIS does this.

> Why do you people keep up this weird narrative that only caddy renews certificates automatically?

I'm not sure who "you people" are, and I never made any such claim. What I'm saying is that web servers that support ACME natively leave a lot less room for the types of misconfigurations that I commonly see. I'm aware of an ACME module for apache and lua scripts for nginx which provide similar features (regarding renewal and certificates, not for the OCSP aspect), but they're not part of what you run by default when you use those web servers.

> The native ocsp handling in HAProxy isn't broken: it just expects to have TLS material provided to it.

I have yet to see you explain why this should be necessary. The web server has all the information it needs to do this. Other web servers can do this.

> If someone setting up HAProxy on a server can't install a shell script calling two OpenSSL commands and setup cron to call it regularly, I don't think your big problem is "HAProxy doesn't handle ocsp". It's PEBKAC.

This is like arguing MongoDB should continue to bind to all interfaces by default because everyone should have firewalls in place. Yes, they should, but it's never going to happen, so why can't we just have a safe default?

In many cases, getting a government permit doesn't necessarily mean assent of the population. This divergence of representation is a pretty important problem. How could we use technology (and/or novel organizational structures) to help... without making things worse? Could we, for example, have a "PolicyBook" that connects people to their representatives in a way that gives responsible politicians (who aren't corrupt) credibility, and makes those who play for private benefit of their friends easily recognizable?
Then you would just have to write the malware in such a way that it works fine on legitimate hardware but exploits a glitch that exists only on the military hardware. Maybe based on MS drivers VS Linux drivers (or whatever OS the navy uses).
Unit testing is not mutually exclusive with static typing. Normal statically typed projects have unit tests too.

The biggest advantage of static typing, in my opinion, is that simple refactorings like "rename" or "move method from one class to another class" or "change what method does and then modify all places that call it" are done routinely and very often. Where renaming something in javascript is careful change you do when fully fresh, rested and focused, it is one quick right click when you are lazy and too tired to do real work in statically typed code. Means difference between rarely done and often done.

The other big advantage is when I am learning somebody elses code, all info about who calls who and how is right there.

The pricing has changed slightly since last year. Last year’s entry model iPhone 7 cost $649. This year’s 64 GB iPhone 8 costs $699. Apple, of course, has no explanation for this.

Sure, everything can be hacked into a video on the web. But luckily that makes your web page unusable, unaccessible, and also un-SEO-able. It would also require you to have expensive DRM authoring tools to have you actually create DRM signatures (it's not just a switch you can flip on). Let me rephrase: EME can only be practically applied to actual audio and video.

The point still stands. EME has been commonplace for three years now. If the fear that it would grip beyond audio and video in the real world is based in reality, we would have seen it by now. The W3C decision changes nothing for the people who would use it.
Your issuer can use a PIN in the US - my credit card through my credit union uses a PIN, which confuses the hell out of most clerks.

Yes, for now. The trend is (and has been) towards more and more elasticity. And since there are economic incentives on both platform provider and buyer side, I believe this will continue.
It is somewhat predicated on tooling and programming models continuing to improve alongside. Because for many smaller projects/businesses, compute costs are dwarfed by engineering costs.

Of course they don't care about people. The social network that the members enjoy is merely a side-effect of the true business. Sort of like the fact that a cow pasture is not really about the cows' enjoyment but, when you get down to it, hamburgers. Amazingly most people are still as oblivious to this concept as cows are before becoming hamburgers.

What I am wondering about is the possibility of a social network that is deliberately and intentionally about being JUST a social network and NOT some kind of complex mechanism for market research and exploitation.
Alcohol is illegal here until you're 21, and then there are rules like no driving after drinking. We even tried to make it illegal but it wasn't tenable. Gambling is also illegal or very regulated in my state. And opiates are a controlled substance, you can't get them without an Rx.

I think we're talking at cross-purposes. I'm talking about the ravages of drug addiction on society. It's not about protecting you, it's about protecting society from you.
It would be easier to have a central device that could listen for any bluetooth signals that linger around the gas station all day long. Most people are gone within 5-10mins so it should be pretty obvious when there is a bluetooth device there for hours at a time that isn't a known device of someone that works there. But this would only be able to detect simple devices like these. Something a bit more advanced would stay in a listen only mode until the skimmer's owner came within range and would generate a random MAC addresses on bootup to evade pattern detection.

I think the idea of Fedcoin is very interesting, and this article does a good job of highlighting what it would mean in taxonomic terms.

My biggest unknown, and the problem I've seen with the idea of a centrally managed cryptocurrency (especially one with convertibility) is the creation/redemption mechanism. The proposals I've seen talk about varying the block reward, or having some sort of transaction type that can only be submitted by the central bank.

I hate to think, though, that the entirety of the security of a nation's money lies in the ability of the central bank to safeguard its private keys. Bitcoin's monetary policy is deterministic and consensus-based, so it's not really vulnerable to this.

It's all well and good to talk about CBCCs in the abstract, but the technical challenges involved are non-trivial and shouldn't be glossed over.
Thanks for the link. I had come across this link [0], where:

>Both Texas and Ohio allow the practice for potable purposes, which is frequently excluded from other states’ laws and regulations

Also there it notes most Western states disallow or regulate it.

From your link any state that says water rights are regulated, as far as I can tell means water rights exist seperately from property rights, and typically belong to the state.

Anyways it is not as bas as I had believed.

> In many cases, getting a government permit doesn't necessarily mean assent of the population.

That's the real problem in a lot of these situations and really with any long term obligation or resource grant bestowed by a government to a private entity. It doesn't necessarily reflect the will of the people in the future or, in many cases particularly in the third world, the present.

Short of restricting the maximum duration for such a grant, I don't see many ways to avoid this situation. Even that may have negative consequences as a company wouldn't want to invest in a municipality if the resources it'll be leveraging may not be available in the future. The uncertainty may make it a non starter.
My gf's parents have this. They can back feed into the house by disconnecting the power lines. From what I understand the utility companies still do not like working on lines when they hear generators because some people do not isolate and can back feed into the grid somehow. At least that's what I've been told.
All of the phones Apple released are boring, so it's kind of not surprising that people aren't worked up about it.

At least to people who watch gadgets. The Mi Mix was a revelation, the iPhone X is just what people expected before all the leaks, with the exception of FaceID, which got leaked.

Still, every time I see someone writing about Apple design, it seems like it's great when Apple does it - its even better than last year's model! - but it's always bad when competitors were.

I'm still completely jealous of iPhone battery life though.
No sale in over a month
The thing that struck me watching the keynote was the positioning of the iPhone 8 and the iPhone X.

I think Apple knows the majority of people will buy the iPhone 8 Plus, and the X is targeted at two niches: pro Instagrammers, and kids who always get the flagship and use Snapchat. For social media pros, max selfie is a revenue stream, and the X will get them more views.

The X is the modern Mac Pro, since the modern content creator is living in Instagram.

I have a 6, and would like an 8 Plus. The difference between the camera on the 6 and the 7 in indoor lighting is noticeable to me, and I use my phone mostly as a camera these days.
I would like to know too. It always intrigues me how sites like this that have a seemingly unique database actually build the database.

The problem is not that you can't play phone games from 2009 on your 2017 iPhone, tying 32b deprecation to a hardware revision would actually have been nice (regardless of the hardware still being able to run in 32b mode).

But that's not what's happening, the problem is that you can't play phone games from 2009 on your 2013~2016 iPhone which had been able to run them right until you updated iOS.

> Startup stock options, if you exercise before a liquidity event, are given a cap gains tax based on the de facto market cap.

That's not really the same thing. ISOs are taxed (as income) because you're purchasing something for below-market price, so the difference between the market price and the price you pay is income. If you hold onto it for long enough, you may then be able to qualify for capital gains tax when you sell it, but that's different.

And in addition, that's the individual who's being taxed on it (the value of their own income).

If you think of how this works similarly for publicly-traded companies, it's easier to understand.

Well the problem is that you just create a loophole.

You can already avoid paying any corporation tax by taking money out of a company as salary.

In the UK you have dividend tax credit so effectively when you take a dividend you get the tax back that has already been paid (as corporation tax).

So both those reasonable ways of extracting money from a company allow you to not pay any additional tax above what income tax would be.

However if there was no corporation tax then the loophole / incentive would be to move money out of the jurisdiction and extract the dividends in a zero tax country.

This is effectively what the big multinationals do via transfer pricing etc but not having any corporation tax would no doubt make it a lot easier for more companies to do that.
Saying a piece of software "should be expunged from the Internet" is a bit overly dramatic. I got real value out of the software. Most of the issues you mentioned sound fixable (e.g. color schemes of PCB layers, keyboard shortcuts to rotate a part), but I am sympathetic to flaws that can't be fixed no mater what because they are intrinsic to its low-level design. For me, the biggest issue with Fritzing is not its apparent (and I believe, fixable) flaws, it's that the project these days looks practically abandoned. I'm interested in contributing serious resources to the project to fix the fixable, but still trying to get a good handle on its intrinsically unfixable design flaws. Lack of a good parts editor is not an intrinsic design flaw (one can be created and integrated into the project), but perhaps "wires between pins" is an unfixable flaw? Likewise, I wonder if KiCad's UI/UX issues can be fixed...

Military hardware typically use electronics with wider margins for temperature, humidity, power surge, etc... While consumer hardware is used a lot in R&D and testing, it normally doesn't make it to the final product.
