I wonder how long until the kernel is checking signatures on code pages as they're mapped into memory or modified (iOS style). Obviously no one wants the vendor gated platform lockdown aspects of any of this, but user-defined key whitelists for both kernel and userspace binaries would be really cool. I think I've heard Linus is not in favor of extending this notion to userspace binaries, or at least that he doesn't believe it should be the kernel's responsibility (for Linux anyway), though.

Heroku runs your code on one set of colocated or near-located servers, usually behind a load balancer. There may be a database involved as well. You rent a VM for a certain amount of time and pay for that VM.

Fly Edge, Cloudflare Workers, AWS Lambda@Edge all take your code, deploy it atomically to 50+ datacenters located in almost every continent / developed-ish country, and run it in a "serverless" mode in response to HTTP requests on the closest edge to the request. They run your code in an on-demand container mesh that loads it up when there's actually a request for it, so you just pay for the total amount of time that your code runs.

Designing for safety means that you take into account human behavior at every level and engineer the product to avoid those mistakes.

We already know that there is an area between drive assistant and automatic driving where people just can't keep their attention level where it needs to be. Driving is activity that maintains attention. People can't watch the road hand on the wheel when nothing happens and keep their level of attention up when the car is driving.

The way I see it, the biggest safety sin from Tesla is having experimental beta feature that that is known weak point for humans. Adding potentially dangerous experimental feature, warning about it, then washing your hands about it is not good safety engineering.

The news story points out how other car manufacturers have cameras that watch the driver for the signs of inattention. Driving assistant should watch both the driver and the road.
You can't have a driving assistant that can be used as an autopilot.

Worth noting that the framebuffer works really well on the Raspberry Pi; you can switch between console and X, all while using the framebuffer. It's even happy switching between bit depths (using 'fbset') at the same time.

If you want a really fast framebuffer system, get something like an old Nvidia 7600GT and use 'nvidiafb'; while this won't work with X at the same time, it's blazingly fast and gives brilliant console text output (modern GPUs are super-slow by comparison).

I believe the most important trait for debugging is stubbornness.

When Stack Overflow and Google do not help, you start doing it yourself. You use tools like a debugger. If the tools do not help, you can look for other tools. If you cannot find them, you can develop your own. You can look at your code, the code of your operating system, and every library you use. You can trace and observe every instruction a CPU performs.

It is rude to express your confusion this way. As written it implies that the author did not express things well, when it appears instead to be that you are ignorant of the topic and don't feel like doing the research. I'm often that way, but since no one else cares, I don't comment about it.

Probably around 3-4x[1], but point taken.

Inexperienced drivers cannot be avoided, but many states try mitigate the risk by limiting teenage drivers.

But my point is that whether to allow a vehicle that is not safer than a reasonable human driver should be not left to the car owner alone - there are other stakeholders whose interests must be taken into account.

Saying "authorized" was a big mistake.

I took the comment about the Turing test as a joke. I doubt anyone would think it's about chess or go. Yes, being able to pass the Turing test would include being able to play D&D and participate in many other social activities.

But D&D doesn't have to be at the bottom of the list of things to focus on to pass the Turing test. In fact, I don't consider passing the Turing test all that interesting as a goal. But being able to deal with complex, open-ended, social situations, would be an interesting goal for AI.

AI does very well in limited situations, when there's a clear box to think inside of. But there are many situations, including self-driving cars, or playing a game like D&D, where there's no real limit to the things that are relevant to the activity.

4. There is another completely unknown variable - how many times would the autopilot have crashed if the human hadn't taken over. So Tesla's statistics are actually stating how safe the autopilot and human are when combined, not how safe the autopilot is by itself.
> Makes me wonder how this gets resolved without jumping through the gap to 'perfect' autopilot.

The solution is easy, but probably not what many would like to hear: ban all "self-driving" or "near-self-driving" solutions from being activated by the driver, and only allow the ones that have gone through very rigorous and extensive government testing (in a standardized test).

When the government certifies the car for Level 4 or Level 5, and assuming the standardized test has strict requirements like 1 intervention at 100,000 miles or whatever is something around 10-100x better than our best drivers, then the car can be allowed on the road.

Any lesser technology can still be used in other cars, bit instead of being a "self-driving mode" it should actually just assist you in the sense of auto-braking when an imminent accident is about to happen, or maybe just warn you that an imminent accident is about to happen, which could still significantly improve driver safety on the road until we figure out Level 5 cars.
Technology is often of dual use - one mans killer drone is another mans life saver. A similar device could be used to get injured people out of harms way, or to deliver aid/medicine/whatever.

To answer a few FAQs I've had over the last few days:

- I've not seen a confirmed use of this in the wild yet, despite a few people emailing me stories where they suspect it.

- I am unsure what is with the bug bounty amount. I think either:

1) The various teams didn't communicate well about the impact until after the award,
2) I haven't fully understood the bug, however as per VRP rules I stopped when I had "discovered a potential security issue", at which point "The panel will consider the maximum impact". It may be I've not understood the impact fully.
3) They want to discourage SEO type research as opposed to pure security research, but I doubt that is the case and it doesn't match up with my previous dealings with the team.

- There are a few technical details not in the article (for example I believe the sitemap has to be an sitemap index file), but nothing that greatly changes it.

- If you are concerned you are affected, I'm happy to take a quick look at your data for free (tom.anthony@distilled.net) to see if I have any insights.

- The best/only way to detect this being done to you is to find the 301/302 redirects for the sitemap in your server logs.

There are plenty of AAA games released with Linux support each year - a small fraction of those released with MacOS support, and a much smaller fraction again of those with Windows support but still: they're there.

A large amount of AA and Indie games are also released on Linux (largely, I suspect, because they use middle-ware like Unity which makes multi-platform releases much more straight-forward).

My point being that there are lots of options if you have a hankering to play a quality game on your Linux machine. The problem in this instance, I suspect, is more to do with this line from imjustsaying's post: 'if I have that rare desire to load up a game'.

In your profile there's an option called "showDead" which you can toggle to show comments that have been killed.

Comments can be killed by mods, but I think the vast majority are killed by user flags not moderator action.

The karma threshold to flag a comment is small, about 50. TO flag a comment you click the timestamp of the comment, which will take you to a page where the flag option appears.

The karma threshold to downvote a comment is higher. I think it's about 500 or 750 or so.
Again, you're making the same mistake op talked about - that the Autopilot works 80-90% so you'll keep letting it drive you while you relax, which means it's just a matter of time until you'll crash.

Just finished questionnaire. The "brain teaser" at the end is full blown IQ test. Which got me an idea. I know its all nice to pretend that everybody is equal and all that jazz, but if you want to make real scientific progress and not just let some code monkey glue couple libraries together and fixing problems on stackoverflow, you need someone really smart. And IQ test is good filter for that. So if I would want to grant money to random people and I have 100'000 applicants, I would just sort them by IQ, keep top 1% and manually sort them and pick a few. If that's your strategy then I'm screwd, I was always too slow on IQ tests.
> I think asserting that it adds meaningful security in the absence of some other mechanism for gaining trust in the kernel is misleading

Do you think it's possible to do security at all without being educated? You seem to be advocating "doing the right thing" for the user, but if the user doesn't know how to do the right thing himself then any hope of security is out of the window anyway.
No that's not the best solution. The best solution is to not have it at all until it's actually good enough to self-drive you.

30 seconds is a HUGE amount of time to react on a highway. You'll be long dead by the time another 25 seconds pass if the accident happens just 5 seconds after you took your hands off the wheel. And this is exactly what happened in the recent crash.
If we do not push for safety then the manufacturers would invent some bad statistics and cheap out on sensors and engineering after they pass the bad statistics percentage.

The traffic issue it won't be actually solved with this kind of self driving cars, you would need new infrastructure, like modern metros/trains.

The dream of fast moving self driving cars, like a sword, I don't think is possible without a huge infrastructure change and I think the sword of cars would need a central point of control.
Not the person you're replying to, but I had a boss at an old job who liked to make "your mum" jokes as often as humanly possible. It got annoying. Since we worked in forensics and did a lot of OSINT I decided to stop it using Facebook.

Found his Facebook. He didn't have any family listed, for privacy. Friends list wasn't visible either. However his dad and sister, both easily identifiable as such, I found since they had both liked the same profile picture a few years ago, and I could view their relationship (handy trick, go to someones user account, add ?and= followed by the user ID of another user and you can view relationships between anyone). Saw that they had a few mutual friends, <10. Found two which fit the criteria for possibly being my boss's mum. Searched both names in the electoral register and got rough locations. One of them lived in the same city my boss had listed as his birthplace, and co-habited with the person I previously identified as his dad. She was using her maiden name on Facebook (there goes security questions). I paid £1-2 for the full address.

For the next week or so I sent him random bits of information about his mum whenever he made a bad "your mum" joke at me (if it was good I didn't particularly care). Previous addresses, streetview screenshot of her house etc. Despite streetview blurring her car's license plate, I could see what make/model/colour it was, which was enough to find the license plate by skimming through photos posted on various sites which let you search by location. So I sent him MOT and road tax reminders too. It was fairly easy to find what schools she had gone to, previous marriages, a company she had started etc. He stopped making "your mum" jokes after a week.

Bear in mind: this was someone who worked in computer security and was actively privacy conscious, and within an hour I had enough information that I could have probably stolen his identity.
