Tangently related: Israeli F-15 pilot who loses a wing in a mid-air collision and still successfully lands.

https://theaviationist.com/2014/09/15/f-15-lands-with-one-wi...

Interesting tidbit: they slapped a replacement wing on and returned the aircraft to service.
WPA2 Enterprise use a central RADIUS server for authentication, with separate credentials for each user, and a (separately-distributed) certificate for the server.

It's just not practical for consumer and small-business setups.
>"We’ve always treated the river badly, we’ve always assumed it was big enough,” said Youssef Abugroun, an engineer and part-time fisherman, whose regular evening sessions now net him around 10% of his catch a decade ago. “But maybe we’re just too many for that now.”

And further down, mentions that the water is just "too filthy". Sounds like a large part of this is due to people shitting into the river they drink from. Makes it hard to have much sympathy.
Brief Introduction on DVDFab Movie Server – The Ultimate 4K UHD Blu-Ray Player
It takes a list of requested packages, does some dependency resolution to arrive at a matching package list, generates environment variable setting/exporting code (in Python, e.g. setting things like PYTHONPATH and MAYA_PLUGIN_PATH), then launches a new shell with that code. So, yes, you can have multiple shells with different packages in use simultaneously. I don't think it operates below the industry software package level, which makes sense, as most industry software is non-free, closed-source binaries. Each package has a `package.py` with its own list of dependencies, and code for things like manual tweaks to env vars.

>"Using Rez you can create standalone environments configured for a given set of packages. However, unlike many other package managers, packages are not installed into these standalone environments. Instead, all package versions are installed into a central repository, and standalone environments reference these existing packages. This means that configured environments are lightweight, and very fast to create, often taking just a few seconds to configure despite containing hundreds of packages."
Sometimes headlines are changed without notice. I previously worked on the same floor as a niche online magazine. Every now and then someone powerful from within the niche covered by the magazine would ask for things to be changed or removed, and the magazine had to comply.
This system is very cold, at a temperature of 3K (=-270°C=-454°F). The atoms are in a crystal, that will help to keep them in one place. In the brain, the atoms are hot, moving and colliding.

Also, a brain has approximately 10^26 atoms, a single neuron has something like 10^17 atoms, a single chromosome has something like 10^10 atoms. They have only 10^7 atoms.
Opioids have a legitimate place in the pharmacopeia for acute pain and cancer pain.

I fell down and smacked my right quadriceps pretty bad and had severe bruising and pain -- I was off my feet for a few days. The urgent care doc prescribed 1 week of Percocet and I refilled for another week. The pain relief was welcome and I did not have problems.

When I had oral surgery I was sedated with a mixture of Fentanyl and Midazolam. No problems.

I have seen people who've received opioids in the hospital for a few weeks have problems when they get out. The big scandal now is over the use of opioids for chronic pain such as back pain, neck pain, knee pain, etc. For those uses opioids are big trouble.
What an excellent question. Possibly one I should have asked years ago, but instead I largely turned my back on the world of work in disgust - not a course of action I would recommend!

Anyway, there's a slew of helpful and positive answers here and I wish you luck in making use of them.
I understand that the info to answer my question may not be public yet. I would greatly appreciate an an answer by someone who can explain when it is.

If an attacker had recorded encrypted WiFi traffic in the past and then performed one of these attacks could they see the traffic? (I know TLS is used for a lot of traffic, but in time that will be broken too.)

It seems to me that a patient attacker could gain a lot of sensitive info given enough time. Is this assumption flawed? I would love to hear why/why not. (Nonces make decryption of large amounts of TLS traffic impractical?) What about the impact of just knowing DNS lookups? (Real world info on DNS caching? Does DNSSEC stop this? Is it widely implemented?) What if a data broker recorded a lot of encrypted WiFi traffic at a public place like a mall? (Could they learn MAC addresses? mDNS device names? DNS lookups? I bet a lot of tracking cookies and other advertiser tokens don’t bother with TLS which could get them emails and more.)

Someone recording encrypted WiFi traffic from a sensitive network may have enough motive to do something this long-term and the attack would be (electronically) undetectable. Most people rarely change their passwords and at a minimum this would give an attacker knowledge of the internal network, intranet sites, and services used by targets.
1. If in your use-case it's important to let the user recover from lost keys, you can have some multisignature recovery (I designate n trusted parties like friends, family, governments etc, if I lose my key they are allowed to together designate some new address as me, and I trust them to verify me offline if I lose my key; we can do m-of-n multisignature, letting me trade of risk of them colluding to falsely verify someone vs risk of them not verifying me; using secret-sharing we can do this off-chain too).

2. If my use-case requires me to give someone access to my data in order to do their job (eg a hospital needs to see my medical records), then I think it's mathematically impossible to defend against what you said. (barring unlikely advances in homomorphic encryption and the like). Using public-key crypto allows us to eliminate having a intermediary party and the risk that the intermediary party gets hacked. Blockchain then allows us to credibly prove that our data existed at a certain point in time. Also there are use-cases where I maybe need not disclose all my data (eg maybe for some use-case my bank does not need to have access to my payslip, just a proof signed by my employer that it exists)
Which is why every European country except Germany has dozens of cameras on every corner?

Also I think it should be encouraged to ask questions even if the true answer is the opposite of what was implied.
Gov Brown's criticism basically comes down to this: "The bill is too broad in scope...". Which I believe you can interpret in one of two ways, either Brown thinks that the technical burden on the agencies to post their policies is to great, or he thinks that not all of these things should be public information.

He goes on to say, "I appreciate the author's desire for additional transparency of police practices and other local law enforcement procedures, but I believe this goal can be accomplished with a more targeted and precise approach".

The with this statement is that the bill was targeted to specific agencies and was very precise in its requirements, so why did he shoot it down? I think that he didn't have any technical issues with the actual logistics of enforcing the bill, as he never mentions any of this in his veto. He must simply not want a higher level of transparency for these agencies.

How about your own non-profit? I founded one. Actually, not non-profit at the moment, but I was lucky to win a grant of $25K from one non-profit accelerator (they scammed me and didn't pay at the end). But it's kind of fun to do it if you're willing to spend your weekends on something.

There are plenty of other non-profits, but they usually don't pay good enough to even cover the rent in SFBA. So IMO it's better to play your own game if you have a plan.
Within the last year, I took a 20% pay cut to move to a company I felt more ethically comfortable with, and I still feel good about the decision.

It's not about one's dream role/job/company. It's about whether one is willing to tolerate something that makes one ethically uncomfortable for a number on a check... or not.

And although everyone's circumstances are different, I know far more people who work for shady companies and live in McMansions than ones who do it to support their family.

Judgy? Absolutely. But there are a lot of jobs out there: if you work at Comcast / US NSA / Chinese Bureau of Public Information and Network Security Supervision then it's because you don't have a problem with how they conduct business.
Ask HN: Can FRS/GRMS Radio Be Used for a LAN?
Starting from the "I know nothing about this" point, and ignoring any legal restrictions:

Could one hook a wifi up to a FRS/GMRS Radio and create a network that would cover a few miles?

If so, it would seem something like this could be pretty handy in emergency/disaster situations and for plain old fun.

I think your take on the early middle ages has been abstracted through the lenses of modernity, drama, and materialism.

There were so many different arrangements, cultures, and value systems in play at that time, and obviously some of those elements came into conflict with each other, but to extrapolate that into a summary of the entire age is a mistake.
As others have and would point out, going out on your own and doing something you _want_ to do will be one of the real ways to work on what you want to work on, unless you're not keen on the overhead that comes with entrepreneurship.

It'll take time to find a company that both exudes the same values as you and is in a domain that you enjoy working with. More often than not you get one but not the other.

Usually what I would do when evaluating a company, is ask if I'd ever want to spend my weekends contracting / part-timing / volunteering for that company. If you have a M-F 9-5 job and are looking forward to the weekend with that company, then it's a good step in the right direction.

Then meet with the team and talk to their employees both while on an interview or if you can get one or more of them out on an informal coffee or meal to talk it would help too. Plenty of times interviews are too official, too rigid and pre-meditated to truly gauge the culture of the company/team.

You might end up jumping around a few times before you find something you like, but the important thing is you find something you like, instead of droning on at a big tech company or startup where you reap the benefits financially but suffer emotionally and psychologically.
I want there to be real values behind what I'm working on that I can believe in. Despite claims to contrary, I find the entire business culture rotten to the core. What should I do?

I can't imagine how they would manage that in one film. The first book alone feels more like a series, with each episode covering one pilgrim's tale. Then there's the time jump between the Hyperion books and the Endymion books. Maybe two movies could work. Maybe.
This is about privacy, not net neutrality. I wouldn't conflate the two.

Talk about winging it! Great link thanks. Probably a good thing no-one told the pilot how badly his plane was damaged.
Amazing story.
I know a guy who ruptured his spleen from hitting the water at a water park (he was very overweight at the time). It happens.
That there was a mechanical failure, + 2 failures on the ejection, and a parachute failure - is not a fluke. This is an extreme dereliction of duty by design and/or maintenance teams.

There would be blame to go around as a result of this, and surely some op changes.
I recognize the existence of a cost benefit difference downthread, so maybe you're picking on my comment and not me.

You are assuming that "most of the population" has an ability to perform this. Judging by the irrational "shape" that gun regulation takes in the US, I highly doubt this.

Furthermore (as I've also said elsewhere), I'm not trying to stoke an argument about firearms. But the political contours are pretty similar - individual autonomy mostly used morally/lawfully, versus controlling rare but horrific sensationalized crimes. Even if one is strongly opposed to individual ownership of firearms, they'd be wise to study what the second amendment battle looks like from the other side - to better understand the long game of the attack on computing.
It is refreshing to see someone just come out and say this.

I wouldn't be so optimistic. There are counter examples, like Brazil.

This is insane.

At least 5 redundancies failed: the Ram Air turbine, primary and secondary ejection sequences, the parachute, and his survival pack went missing. And yet Mr. Judkins survived maybe because he had spleen removed. Amazing.

Microservice backends. And native app api servers.

Highly recommend over rest apis for anything with significant traffic.

The clients handle multiplexing over multiple threads. And avoiding a single tcp connection per api call.

And the servers give you a great api / microservice framework that's not too frameworky. It "just works" without magic.
I think in Jacobson's case he was fast just because he was doing his regular schtick on autopilot. A pretty uninspiring read. Great cover though.
I don't know "Chinese culture is very competitive" compared to others. It may be the long tail you are seeing from the large population.

As I mentioned earlier, China is very relation based and Chinese themselves know that. To counter that performance evaluation tends to be very quantified. You could say there is a number fetish. College admission used to be based on one score. Introducing flexibility causes a lot of anxiety about "hou men" (backdoor or favoritism). GDP growth needs to be above 6.5%. I just read a policeman commenting that they have numerical targets for the number of arrests they make.

Anyway because of the emphasis on relationship there is actually a heavy price to pay if you are thought of a cheater in private social networks. It is another story
though dealing with strangers/abstract public interests/intrusive governments so there is a degree of split personality there.

My son is graduating from a US high school this year. He is an academic star. On his brag sheet he lists what he is most proud of himself as doing all his work honestly. Not all those academic achievements that he worked hard for. It goes to show what he thinks of academic honesty here. It does not make him like his classmates less though. It does not make me think cheating endemic to the US either. There is always grayness. I am proud of his integrity but I wouldn't automatically think a lot less of a kid because he cuts some corners once in a while.

You're supposing an alternative where it was only possible for the West to have created these inventions you allude to.

While there have been thesises that only Great Britain possessed the necessary ingredients for steam power and industrialization, that argument isn't universally held. And I refuse to believe that this applies to every invention, especially as world population increased.

BART published a study a few years ago saying the tracks need to be closed 4 hours every night. They said since people riding early in the morning are more likely to be people of color than those riding late at night, that shifting service times later would be "racist" because it would have a disproportionate effect on people of color. Typical 21st-century bureaucratic tactic to stifle discussion.
"Africa's natural resources have been raped and pillaged by the west for many decades. "

Wrong.

If you mean 'Oil (or some other commodity) was extracted mostly by Africans and sold to Westerners or Asians' - then sure.

There is no 'raping' or 'pillaging' done by anyone, if there are negative consequences, it's almost invariably by the African 'leaders' themselves who are among the most corrupt and brutal in the world.

'The West' would be very happy if the leader/warlords invested in industry, and distributed their wealth more fairly.

We'd be very happy if they took their billion dollar IMF loans - which were designed for infrastructure projects - and actually built those infrastructure projects as opposed to squandering it in so many ways from top to bottom - leaving the various countries with an ugly balance sheet.

Where there has been more responsibility - such as in Botswana
's diamond extraction - we've seen more intelligent distribution of wealth, and as a result, higher standard of living etc..

Awesome read.

Can anyone explain the quote below? I don't really understand how the minesweeper understood the signal.

---

The Coast Guard amphibian gained altitude and flew off. (I learned later that he headed for a squadron of minesweepers that was returning to the United States from a tour of the Western Pacific. He was unable to tune to their radio frequency for communications. But this ingenious pilot lowered a wire from his aircraft and dragged it across the bow of the minesweeper, the USS Embattle. The minesweeper captain understood the plea, and veered off at top speed in my direction.)
this is a stupid comment, but good post!
Actually the RAT worked (the emergency electrical generator).

My team is working on building one of these auxiliary generators right now, fun project.

Earlier this year I deployed a RAT by mistake (poor mechanical design) and I believe it died as we were flying too fast for it (poor electrical design)
If you are looking for speeds on the order of 0.0024 Mbps (2400 baud) then maybe. You could use amateur radio packet radio gateways and radio modems and set something up.

You could do it legally (in the US) by paying a token amount and getting a part 90 business license or possibly by using MURS frequencies instead of FRS/GMRS.
Making migrations idempotent in both directions — when you can — is generally a good idea anyway.

Yeah. On pain of being a Smug Lisp Weenie: syntax sucks and shouldn't get in the way of logic. If your only syntax is parens and it directly maps the underlying logic (especially in pure-ish functional programming) then syntax errors just drop away.

I write Clojure and Python mostly. And while the former is overall more difficult than the latter, I never get anything like a syntax error in the former and often do in the latter (eg silly stuff like forgetting print is just a function in 3)

"We reap what we sow" is the opposite of divine punishment or penance - and really isn't rooted in anything spiritual, it's the most pragmatic advice ever given.

'You reap what you sow' means you're going to get the outcome you 'built for yourself' - not some kind of divine bit of intervention!

As for Africa - the Africans will 'reap what they sow' in Africa, and it has little to do with 'Europeans'.

They have abundant natural wealth and were they to organize themselves intelligently, they'd be fairing pretty well.
We didn't discover any new real browser vulnerabilities, thankfully -- mainly just browser's being overly protective in some cases.

Most of the hacks were just to get IE up-to-par with the other browsers. For example, to send a postMessage between a popup and the parent page, the only way is to place a hidden iframe on the parent page, with the same domain as the popup. post-robot abstracts most of that away.

The line we had to walk in terms of security was, on top of not introducing any new vulnerabilities ourselves, making sure we didn't make it too easy for people to accidentally introduce any security loopholes using what we've built.

For example -- the idea of passing a function over to a different window is a fairly novel concept. The idea is, if you want to give the other window control over something, say to log out a user, you can just pass a `user.logout` function directly in a message to the target window. But then there's a risk people will absentmindedly pass functions in messages that they didn't expect to.

But then, on top of that, there's a lot we can do automatically to protect users, that doesn't happen automatically with regular browser apis. For example, if you render an xcomponent with a certain url, xcomponent will (by default) ensure that only messages from that domain are allowed up from the iframe. Which is something you'd need to remember to do manually if you were just listening for post-messages.
