FWIW, if they are intentionally (or unintentionally) blocking your cell signal with an electronic signal (And since you mentioned that they didn't remodel, this is the only way they could feasibly do it), they're breaking a very serious FCC law - https://www.fcc.gov/general/jammer-enforcement.

I know that the FCC is kind of regarded as a joke lately, but this is a law they take pretty seriously as jammers can interfere with E911 calls. It would just take one emergency that 911 couldn't respond to for the FCC to realize what was going on, and no large store is going to take those odds. It's likely something else.

That said, if you really believe that they are blocking cell signals, you should probably file a tipoff, as they could honestly be putting lives at risk (go to https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us and click "phone"). As far as I know there's no penalty if you are wrong (as long as you honestly believe there might be an active jammer in the area and you aren't abusing their system somehow), worst case you'll get a call confirming they don't use one.
It can take years in the UK to add a new cell tower. Apply to the local govt for planning, then more applications to dig the road up for fibre. And then you need a power connection which often aren't trivial or quick to get. $150k sounds unbelievably low.
A better approach might be a government managed last mile (i.e. cable from a central data center to your home/business), but not the ISP itself.

That way ISPs can continue to compete for your business, but the market would be significantly less restrictive because the ISP only needs physical equipment at the data center and upstream of it.

The biggest thing stopping ISP competition today is that local markets don't want the road dug up ten times to lay different cables. So instead lay them a single time, and re-sell access.

The ISPs would pay a fee to use the government cables from the data center to the end user (and equipment). That fee would be used to expand and maintain the network.

Other countries have done this with huge success. It wouldn't even put ISPs out of business, they can use this network just like their competitors.
> I am an atheist and don't need religion to tell me it is wrong to kill another man, or so I've always believed.

nah it's not the point / goal of religion here it has nothing to do here with killing someone else or not. It's the fact of believing in "something else" outside of this world which gives you a reason to stay human (in a way that can include but not limited to 'not killing someone'). Basically if there's only "here and now" there's no point to be a good person or keep your animal instincts leashed. if there's "something else outside or after" there's a "superstitious" point to self-preserve your humanity ('for later')...
It doesn't seem to be enough to offset the gains from the efficiency of scaling horizontally. Each product or service, when provided or assisted by computers, requires fewer and fewer humans which are the most difficult to scale up, so an organization can set that up and then move up and down their supply chain. It might be a temporary benefit though, because once it's big player vs big player they won't be able to easily extract value (or one of them will kill the other and get even bigger, which is bad for the rest).
Want to strongly re-affirm the fact that you should tell them you're exploring multiple therapists, and that you SHOULD try a few. Each therapist has a different style, and therapy is not a formula that everyone just "implements". Being able to form a connection with your therapist is very important, and while you might pick the right one off the bat, trying a few will help you pick the right one for you.
Do the people that write these papers ever release their source code or trained model? I'm curious about both other researchers reproducing as well as being able to download something and play with it.
> In terms of innovation, stability, performance, or security I really trust them

Just wait till their automated algorithm suddenly (and mistakenly) blocks your account for "suspicious activity." (I've been there)

Maybe there is something "innovative" to using such algorithms but I'm not sure it's all good. What's bad though: stability, for you as a user.
Yes they can. I don’t know the exact name of the process off-hand, but basically the web app requests a temporary upload token which it provides to the user. The user can then use this token to upload directly to an S3 bucket as configured by the web app.

Hello Andrew, unfortunately the max limit is hit only if you make sure to call the appropriate function that will reallocate the stack if needed. I think that it would be saner for Lua, by default, just to accept stack pushes and resize the stack if needed. I've the feeling that this would not be a huge performance issue because most of the times it's just a check and no reallocation is needed. As I wrote in the blog post, note that other languages do not force you to think at such low level when using their C API. In general Lua implementation is great, but the API exposing the stack, really poses just a barrier that I feel is kinda pointless compared to providing the classical argv/argc API of Python, Ruby, Tcl, ...
> That's not a good statistic. It should take distance driven in to the account.

Re:

1. ATT and Time Warner didn't really compete prior to the merge.

2. ISPs have realized that basically every business is dependent on them to access their customers. Why wouldn't you try to extract value from that?

3. Hand-wavy feelings doesn't mean anything in government outside of impassioned speeches. They owe the public nothing other than providing their service according to the contracts they made. Large organizations where every individual has their own incentives don't really have feelings or a sense of duty.

---

1. This is already true, as it turns out private citizens largely don't actually own the land where the poles are and governments don't want to charge.

2. You would hate this world. Content can't be encrypted because there might be illegal content contained within. All your traffic will need to be scanned and scrutinized. P2P is basically dead. Any site with user-generated content will be blocked. Sites will have to make legal agreements with ISPs to be whitelisted for strict content moderation.

3. Blocking municipal ISPs is not as mustache-twirlingly evil as people make it seem. Some ISP goes to a town where it would normally not be profitable to operate and makes a deal with city in exchange for exclusivity. The risk that the citizens of that town would just form a municipal ISP funded by tax dollars and undercut them once the market is established has a real cost which is going to be paid in one way or another.
I don't think a separate chip for non-trusted code would work. When I play minecraft I don't want it to be relegated to some sub-chip because it isn't trusted. Conversely, the bits of code running my disk encryption shouldn't be sharing resources with minecraft. So I think the more practical route is dedicated space/chips/resources for security-related stuff, and the big chip for all the less important stuff.

Now on a server, with a far greater proportion of security-related tasks, then we may need greater allocation to security. A split between security-specialized with lots of separate protected chips, and general-use CPUs with one bigger chip may be likely.

Exclusive franchise agreements are illegal for eg cable. They have been illegal for a quarter of a century.

You'll find that nearly all examples commonly presented of the lack of competition, are not due to market lock-out, it's due to the high cost and time required to gain approval to build in a given town or city. The combined cost, with pre-existing competition entrenched, is a very large disincentive. Google Fiber didn't grind to a halt on their build-out because they couldn't legally access markets, it's because it's painfully expensive and very slow.

There are three solutions to the problem: new technology that bypasses (low earth orbit satellite, wireless); lower the total cost to enter markets and compete; mandate shared access to existing infrastructure (and ideally simultaneously lower the other market entry costs).
Maintainer scripts are still very valuable, we use those in other packages (such as Code) for update-alternatives and they can be really useful in APT-based systems for user prompts via debconf. But, at any rate, we weren't thoughtful (at all) on what we did with those scripts. The team addressed that earlier today, using maintainer scripts: https://aka.ms/Oxbegy

What if tether is the tether holder and they simply decide to never call in that debt against themselves? That would mean they lost their own money, but they still may have made enough money over the course of the entire scheme to pay off their "legitimate" customers and thus avoid getting publicly called out.
The answer is probably "because your content is locked on that provider", but that's a less and less valuable point.

Obviously, BitTorrent was the big reason in the past, but now the reality is that there is a lot of competition in the video space - you aren't just competing with films and tv shows, but youtube videos, twitch streams, etc...

Completely agree with this, and will even say that the weird thing about mental health is that you may not even be able to trust your own judgment, since that's the part thats sick.

A few years ago, I had decided on my own that I needed medication; the depression was so overwhelming that I felt like the problem had to be chemical, and no "touchy-feely" talking therapy could possibly help. I went to a few psychiatrists, with varying degrees of success (I caught one reading side effects of a medication off of wikipedia) and stopped going several times because I felt like it wasnt helping. It was only when things got bad that I found a therapist (I think I just googled "therapist <my neighborhood>") -- who I liked -- and she convinced me to just give her way a try. It worked.

I am on medication again, and its helping, but it was really the therapy that I was so against thats making the biggest difference. All of this is to say that find someone you like, and then be open. Deciding how you want to be treated from the outset doesn't necessarily make sense. Mental health issues are like any other illness -- we go to doctors for their advice and expertise. But you need to go.
The bug isn't in mac OS's signature validation though, which works fine. The bug lies in the additional validation performed by certain third-party security products. It has nothing to do with any of Apple's code whatsoever. Although as another commenter has pointed out, Apple could maybe have designed the API better to avoid it being used wrongly.

I used to buy flaxseed oil as a cheap source of omega 3. Then someone on HN informed me that it has crappy bioavailability. So, I switched to fish oil.

For a non-snarky response: The difference between your scenario and the one from the article is that with yours, you were just performing a service for your friend, who presumably owned the recordings. In the article's case, the recordings are owned and created by UC Berkeley, which is a publicly funded learning institution.
Yeah, we can verify the validity of the statement since most of these project are open source. It's all Typescript, not JavaScript. according to the OP:

>> Those are one in the same thing (compiled) :-). But us TypeScript in majority at Microsoft in almost all the projects I've seen or been apart of.

Using the same logic, could we say that all windows is written in assembly ? When looking at JavaScript output of a Typescript program, it does really look like JavaScript is treated as assembly.

One almost never edits the JavaScript code when using Typescript, especially if the mapped ts files are available when debugging in F12.
Only if you exclude wireless options, which is becoming an ever-less rational thing to do. (15% of households making over $100k/year have ditched wired broadband in favor of wireless, and that number is growing rapidly.)

Also, the question is which households have options? I strongly suspect its the households in wealthier metro areas and suburbs. Competition for households that are the largest sources of potential revenue is going to drive the market. It's exactly like mobile devices--a huge fraction of the market has just one choice of smart phone platform (Android), because Apple doesn't sell cheap phones. But competition between Android and iOS in the mid-range and high-end drive the behavior of the market.

> It seems possible the commenter on the oss-security mailing list is not aware of this strategy and is giving more weight to openBSD's patch than it deserves (and perhaps wrongly implying openBSD have disrespected the embargo as a sideffect).

First, cars haven't gone down much in price. Advanced in quality, sure. Gone down in price ? Hardly, at least in my experience. About 8-14 months net pay. TVs have gone up massively, mostly because flatscreens make ridiculous TVs possible. A CRT screen just can't be big. 50" is ridiculously large for a CRT, and anything under 40" is just unusable, so there just wasn't much difference between the cheapest and the most expensive screen in the 90s. Then, when plasma screens came, the prices for the top end went utterly ridiculous. But in the 90s you just couldn't spend a month's pay on a (single) TV. Now, 32000$ screens are in every electronics store (who do they sell these to I often wonder).

But the thing is, eliminating labor from healthcare seems to just be impossible to do in a responsible manner. So their prices go up with specialist labor prices. And yes, those have not exactly gone down. As for actual prices for basic things, I do get the impression they've gone down. Not by a lot, but 20-30% over a decade or two ? Certainly.

An easy filter is to reject any professional who does not hold a Ph.D. The costs are naturally higher, but, this worked well for me. That's not to say others are not qualified, but the signal-to-noise ratio seemed much higher to me.
I've noticed a begrudging realization among those that sit around and think about these things that maybe unions were not as bad as we made them out to be.

Sure, they have some inherent inefficiencies. Sometimes certain ones become corrupt (Corporations become corrupt all the time, but nobody calls them a cancer to Capitalism).

But over all, there's the sinking realization that capital owners are a lot more cruel (Amazon warehouses), comically greedy (cutting already meager welfare programs) and unimaginative (Juicero, stock buybacks instead of new products) than we thought capable. All of a sudden all this money flowing to the very top looks like a tremendous waste.

Exactly this. I don't know how many times this need to be repeated. If your original encoding cost were 1 Million, 5x or even 10x is only 9 million more. At 100x that is 99 million. 1000x is a billion. Are you really willing to spend a billion on a codec that saves you 50% transfer and a fee million of royalty cost?

Especially when Netflix already has the Open Alliance in many ISP DC. Bandwidth cost saving are much less that most estimate.

However I do understand her point, she should ask I give you 100x complexity headroom, can you get me 80% reduction in bitrate compare to HEVC.
Every time a bubble pops it seems people look for someone to blame that isn't the themselves, (i.e the people who rushed out and put more than they could afford to lose on a risky FOMO decision). I don't know about Tethers involvement, but that is what makes a bubble at the end of the day, not sure how much "manipulation" is needed once it gets started.

Expecting these types of articles will sell pretty well in coming weeks/months as people nursing their wounds look for the "people responsible".

I think I'm missing something about this attack, how does one actually get attacked? From the article it sounds like a combination of bad firewall configuration and an exposed Docker Daemon allows the attacker to install any image they want into your host?

Why are so many commenters here saying things about running untrusted Docker containers then? From my interpretation, the people affected didn't go to dockerhub.com/docker123321/maliciousCopyCatImage and run it. Instead it was injected into their otherwise-safe containers and they had no idea this ever happened until things started acting weird. Am I missing something?

Net neutrality is something that Google can reconcile with its other political affiliations. The stuff that's required to reduce barriers to broadband deployment at the state and local level is not. Take build out requirements for example (the idea that ISPs should be forced to build service to areas where people can't afford to subscribe to it). Google can't lobby to get rid of build-out requirements generally, even though it would massively help broadband deployment. It's a meat-and-potatoes Democratic issue at the state and local level. So instead of lobbying to get rid of them, it simply sought waivers of those requirements in every Fiber city.

Finding a good therapist is similar to find someone to date. Their qualifications should be good, but you need to find someone you mesh with personally. If you can't imagine hanging out with that person outside, you aren't going to have a good time, in my experience. You will likely have to try a few therapists before you find one you click with.
Pick a friend you can trust and ask them to handle the whole thing, including driving you to the first few sessions. If you're depressed any bit of extra effort can derail your treatment, so don't tempt the fate.

Doesn't have to be a close friend, just someone responsible. Perhaps try a parent with grown children - they would understand responsibility and have time for you.
