Heh, that actually is in my official job title. I'm a "Principal Cyber Engineer". That came about as a way to offer better pay and benefits without affecting a parent company; we all got "Software" changed to "Cyber" with the pay/benefits upgrade.

Well, if you leave the session ticket decryption key off the token, resumption won't be slow. But 2/s is beyond abysmal for new sessions.
Those are great examples of regulations that actually benefit the user. When the regulation however addresses the wrong problem, then it becomes burdensome and dumb. If the user uses a simplistic password, his account will be hacked even if it's never leaked. Studies show that bad passwords and phishing are more destructive than leaks.
In my experience, I've seen both of the following scenarios:

POST request comes in from the client. Full URL and request body is logged. Sometimes for simply troubleshooting, sometimes for security reasons (e.g., wanting to know all data coming in so that it's possible to identify security holes after they've been exploited).

POST request comes in from client. Frontend server makes a GET request to a backend server, and the password ends up in the standard request logs. In one case, I've seen this happen because the developer thought path variables were cool, so every API they wrote looked like /a/b/c/d/e. Sigh.
If being able to work for any company remotely means I have to compete with the whole world, I’m ok with it.
I think what people attach to (rightly or wrongly) is that these characters usually have wrestled themselves into a position of total control over their own lives. Most people watching the film won't have that freedom to stick it to the man, or run away from their situation and live a life that's their selfish own: there are usually financial, family, or even self-doubt constraints.

Control over your own life is something that everybody craves and it's clear that these characters have it in abundance,
even if it's only for a brief period of time - i.e. to the end of the film. But up until that point, they're seen as individuals who have broken free from their respective shackles.
Well, we need to be realistic about risk, security, and responsibility. And how legislation can have unintended consequences that work against our higher goals.

For example, a common refrain on HN is how centralized the internet is becoming. Do punitive damages for mistakes prevent mistakes? How likely is it to create an environment where the only organizations that exist are those that can afford mistakes? Is that worth it, especially in the context of some Twitter passwords that were logged internally?

Also, one of the most important awakenings that need to happen in light of recent events is the personal responsibility of who you share your information with. It's just as important as the question of what an organization does with your information.

If there were no trade-offs, then we could fix everything with legislation.
I know. But, part of the fun is seeing where the conversation ends up. It's like chat roulette, but without the nudity.

I see how cat6 works for economics of scale; but when I last year looked to price 10gbs switches for a lan for a school (with a meagre budget) - I was surprised at how expensive second hand 10gps gear was. In the end we stayed with 1gbps even though we had some use-cases where 10gbps would make sense; mostly budget San/nas for video edit/backup. And to a lesser degree audio editing.

I think the 1gbps Cisco switches were hand-me-downs from a university - but I saw no indication of reasonably priced 10gbps switches with minimal management (we didn't need "all" of Cisco ios - but minimal remote management and steady performance would be nice).

We also threw some lan parties, so budget soho stuff that'd fall over easily wasn't really an option.
This is the phrasing from Twitter's actual blog post[0]:

> We mask passwords through a process called hashing using a function known as bcrypt, which replaces the actual password with a random set of numbers and letters that are stored in Twitter’s system.

Which is slightly better, I guess.

What's the difference? To me Communism is just the practical implementation of Marxism. Marx makes it pretty clear Manifesto of the Communist Party what policies he thinks should be implemented. And in practice those policies haven't worked out well (not that his criticisms don't have some merit).

This assumes that your only two options are give them the money or not give them the money.

They could give that money to someone else, e.g. to some of the low income housing groups that have existed for a while and who have not been pegged as tech proxies already.

Note the phrase "in part".
the flu gaining deadlier characteristics via engineering is more realistic. unfortunately, i believe that is well within the scope of our present capability. the exact magnitude of how dangerous such engineering could make a virus based on the flu is unclear to me, but i'd estimate somewhere between "globally apocalyptic" and "continentally destabilizing".

the mixing and matching of attack characteristics is probably possible under certain circumstances, but i don't know of any specific instances where it has been done. theoretically, it's easy to swap A for B, but making such changes nearly always has unintended downstream problems.

in the lab we used to do all sorts of mixing and matching, but for defensive characteristics (mostly to see if certain isomorphs were more vulnerable than others).

long story short, generating virus and isolating it is a real PITA for a slew of reasons. experimental cycles might be as long as a week for each trial of "mixing and matching".

Teleporter was used as a literary device. No one was actually supporting a teleporter. The point was that unless additional housing is built around the transit hubs, the problem still remains.
Marx's comments on capitalism are still useful. His solutions didn't work out well.

But maybe that was just Russia. Since 1900, Russia has had an emperor, liberal communism, dictatorial communism, bureaucratic communism, liberal democracy, oligarchic plutocracy, and capitalist dictatorship. None worked all that well.

China now seems to have something that works, after a long painful period of Maoism.

Like with GPDR ?
IANAL: No, there is a process of stuff before you will get fined. A human error does not suddenly lead to heavy fines, if you can prove that you put everything you can to prevent this from happening, i.e. follow all the processes GDPR defines like data processing agreements with third party processors, technical and organizational measures to protect against privacy violations, documentation of personal data stored with type of processing, type of consent, and such. what example would a data privacy agency set to fine a company that is fully compliant? I imagine you could even get court to side with you on not having to pay a fine.

data leaks of course are always a breach and must be reported. that doesnt mean you get a fine though.
Still growing.

"How? Primarily through foreign immigration — 332,197 new residents from other lands in 2016 — and more births than deaths."

My comment and complaint was with the characterization of "their own residents", which sounds an awful lot like "you people", and the attendant implications that it's the fault of "the other", and that Oregon/Washington/Colorado/wherever are victims rather than merely other states impacted by the same factors California is -- namely, a booming economy, inflows to more urban areas, rising property values, growing wage gaps, etc.

But the attitude we get from the "victims" is that they have a god-given right to have their regions remain the same as they've ever been, and must therefore find a scapegoat (California) for all of their problems.

I am guessing that you are talking about betavoltaics [1]. They were used to power pacemakers and are very useful for remote devices. They can't power much, but they are smaller than PV and don't have to be exposed to the sun (reflective).

Though there are larger devices that were used too.

I also partiality disagree with you. Hammers did not change much for last few hundreds of years. The web made a massive leap in just a few years.

We created an abstraction to develop faster. We build it on top systems that accumulated decades of cruft. In my opinion, a new start like RISC-V and Fuchsia/Redox is needed.
I dislike working from home. I am more productive in the office, and I like having a concrete work/life balance.

I absolutely expect helium drives to run cooler simply because helium is a much better conductor of heat compared to air. As a result all heat generated in the drive cavity will be more effectively conducted to the containment vessel and leave the material inside consistently cooler.
No worries, there’s also scd-pkcs11 that I’ve had a quick look at, but I think that requires you to upload a cert to the card itself rather than storing it on disk, and for some reason the Yubikey 4 can only store at most a 1.3K cert for GPG, which is not enough if you have a 4096 bit public key and issuer.
It's kind of like pre-emptively defending yourself against an accusation that hasn't been made yet.

The Libertarian ideal that "people would police themselves equitably if you just leave them alone" is flat out wrong.

Having more nuanced reasoning behind your opposition to all practical projects, and hypothetically supporting “decommodified” projects for which no funding is on the table, don’t meaningfully distinguish the DSA’s position from other forms of NIMBYism in terms of actual effects. Purity of intention, maybe.
C can allocate memory whose address isn't taken in the form of new stack frames. Local variables whose address is never taken as a pointer are not constrained to have an address which fits into a pointer.

That, by itself, though gets us only as far as Push Down Automaton (PDA), not Universal Turing Machine.

If we regard the stack as the machine's tape, the problem is that the tape gets erased when the machine rewinds (terminations of scopes obliterate local variables).

The C language also describes an I/O facility: streams. Streams have no inherent bound on their length. If the functions `fgetpos` and `fsetpos` are not used, but only relative positioning, then the stdio stream gives us a tape that is infinite, in terms of language semantics.
precompile doesn't store native compiled code. Though I know from talking to the compiler developers that this is high on the 1.x list. It's an annoyance but at least it has a clear solution in sight.
For one thing, those are single rooms--about $200 sq. ft. Also see Singapore and Hong Kong. (It's difficult to make these comparisons though because of different local wages and exchange rates.)
> The underlying motivation for NIMBY is that people who own houses want their value to go up, and for their neighborhood to be too expensive for poor people so that their public schools will be well-funded and full of other upwardly mobile kids, and for their streets and parks not to be crowded.

It's people who own houses that are YIMBYs, because removing zoning restrictions causes land value to go up. It's people who live in them who are NIMBYs, because they fear density in their neighborhoods will lower their quality of life, and that they will eventually be forced to sell due to a rise in property taxes as a result of their property values rising.

If they're old, that's a scary proposition. If they're young enough that they have kids in the public schools, they're probably young enough that they won't have a problem selling their home for a boatload of profit and moving to another exclusive neighborhood.
As a bonus, sometimes the stack trace will be returned to the user, and maybe it'll contain server-side secrets, too!
It might not be what Dennett meant, but I don't think issues of informational distance refute the claim that we can expect selection for reproductive fitness to be a feature in any random process that gives rise to replicators. After the appearance of the replicator, the random process continues to operate under the same rules (laws of physics) as before.
> Marx's comments on capitalism are still useful. His solutions didn't work out well.

IIRC, those "solutions" weren't his. They were dictatorships that took up central planning with a veneer of Marx.

Contemporary China has nothing to do with Marxism. It's basically an oligarchical state with its own business interests that rules over a capitalist economy.
Stirling engines drive because of a temperature differential. If you don't cool then those two temperatures will tend to equalize, becoming less efficient as the entire device warms up.
Ask HN: Does a smart tool for book drafting exist (analytics per chapter, etc)?
I'm looking for a tool with the following features.

I'm using it to get really advanced analytics for a book I'm drafting.

- See analytics (i.e. where each reader drops off/retention, how frequently they re-visit a section, most highlighted/copied sections, etc) on a per-user basis (therefore, login required)

(On a per-user basis so that I can reach out to and have phone/Skype conversations with the readers that most loved it and learn more, and the readers that didn't love it, and also find out more)

Any suggestions that don't involve me having to program something myself (i.e. I could set up a rails site, add twitter authentication and some kind of per-user analytics, but I have to imagine there's something easier for this)?
That might be a good second phase setup for a larger base, but this current one would be good for initial setup since it could be ready without having to produce anything on planet. That makes it good for rovers or other unmanned setups.
Time to look for alternatives?

Call me a cynic but I have a feeling their bias (and questionable tech capabilities) will drive it down to the ground.
I'm gonna say that anyone who throws out something like "people who don't understand supply and demand" likely doesn't understand them past the ultra-simplistic view presented in Econ 101.
"some of Their opinions are based on mis-information (for example: that fixing housing would increase traffic, when actually the opposite is true, or that increasing the supply of housing increases prices, etc - there's an enormous amount of misinformation out there)."

So basically, you have opinions that differ from them, and you think you're right, and they're wrong. But you offer no evidence beyond your own assertions.

Nobody reasonable is arguing that "increasing the supply of housing increases prices" (that's a strawman), but there's a lot of evidence that, for example, "fixing housing" leads to traffic problems if you don't deal with transit before you build (cf. the highway situation in Seattle).

There are also lots of examples where gentrification displaces poor and vulnerable populations. These are real problems with development, and it does no good to simply assert that they're not real.
Agreed. The PIC32MZ is a neat MIPS microcontroller (if you're able to tolerate the MPLab Xpress IDE). Unfortunately the cheapest PIC32 board they offer is the DM320001 at $50. I picked up a SAMD10 "Xplained mini" for $9 from Digikey, and one can get sub-$2 STM32F103 boards from AliExpress.

Arguably the Cortex-M0+-based D10 isn't really comparable to the PIC32, but that's sort of the point. No Arduino-sized community is going to develop around an architecture with a $50 minimum entry point... Maybe I should stop complaining about it and try to fix it :-)
In the German comment section, the author of the article says they contemplated adding the CVE numbers, but decided against to protect the source. He promises to add them at a later date.
Or all the environment variables containing tons of password+tokens, or in javascript libraries all the headers, including cookies that could be used to overtake a session. Error/Exception tracking software is quite dangerous if it written with a "lets store everything, because it could help find the problem" mindest.

Last year a contractor deleted the president’s account.

The fact it didn’t leave Twitter doesn’t mean everything is good. There are still a LOT of people who may have had some kind of access to this data.
Dunno, never seen this happen myself on most sites with reaction/rating systems. Okay, the list of examples I can remember off the top of my head is only two (Wario Forums, The Admin Zone), but neither seems to have issues with people abusing the ratings system to dislike posts they merely disagree with.

Maybe it stops holding up on Reddit scale though.
Regardless, it seems very defensive. A company that looks after their users "because they choose to" is a lot more suspicious than one where customer care is simply assumed to be inherent to the operation.
Honestly, whatever form of cooking gets you to eat them is probably the best preparation.

Some nutrients in some vegetables are diminished by cooking (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/j.1750-3841... for example). Some are also enhanced. For example: lycopene from tomatoes. Overall, it seemed to me that cooking often harms nutrition more than it helps.
Not that I'm a big fan of Musk, but even somebody as mild mannered as Tim Cook has said things like this in the past:
