I did not define vulnerability,I only explained security.

This is security101. Risk is measured by multiplying vulnerability by threat.

Maybe an analogy might help. You are vulnerable to bullets. But your security with respect to your bullet vulnerability is measured by multiplying it against active threats that might shoot you with bullets. So,your security decreases when in a warzone as opposed to lying in bed at your suburban house due to reduction of threat.
You won't get a second boarding pass if your itinerary means you sit on the plane during the stopover. YUL-ZBF would be a domestic flight so there's no need to clear the plane with customs and then reboard it.
Similarly, I suffered a traumatic bike crash when I was 8 (on literally the very first day of summer vacation, sigh...) and didn't end up riding a bike again until I was 24. Circled in a parking lot for a few hours to get my confidence back and then I was golden. The just-like-riding-a-bicycle aphorism really is scarily apt.

And congratulations on your recuperation!
Anybody who tries to show me ads clearly respects neither my time nor my money, so why would I respect theirs? Anyway, getting angry at ad-blocking is pretty silly - it's as if someone threw a pamphlet at me while I was talking to them, and then yelled at me because I didn't read it.
YouTube isn't taking any chances but still expecting to get big like Netflix just cuz.

I have a friend who makes original, scripted, television-length episodic content and he can't get noticed, despite having a whole season already up on YouTube, link below. This sort of serious production isn't really viable for the sponsorship model of most YouTube channels, which stick to 10-20 minute videos that can use what a TV crew would consider a barebones production staff.

YouTube should be reaching out to people like my friend like they reached out to my mom shortly after all the crafting TV shows started disappearing in the early 2000s. I think they just lost their nerve, but still don't have the resources to truly do what Netflix is doing.

I mostly agree with you, but the problem with illegals websites is often that they are illegal in a country but hosted in another.

So you can’t really send your own police taking down servers in other countries.

So for the DNS blocking it works because it blocks casual users of those website (I’m thinking torrent or streaming sites essentially).

Of course when you know a bit how it works you use international DNS.

And if you know even more, you use your own :-)
The plan is basically early semi-retirement - not tax payer funded tenure. That seems to have come across wrong - the idea is to find a way to fund myself (through my own earnings /savings /business) so Incan do the things I really want.
Weird, I have 63.0.3 as far as I see the normal version and had no problem downloading and with that updating the November version of "bypass-paywalls" which was also affected from the releases page here: https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-firefox/releas...
Thanks for sharing this! Yes, instead of a version control system that lets people try out different integrations, GitLab provides an opinionated (yet flexible with key integrations and the option to opt out of anything you don't want) way to run the entire software development and deployment lifecycle.

There is mention of one issue - melting of the tips. They are working on modifying the collector to reduce the stress on the emitter, which suggests that a practical device will not be reversible. (from a sufficiently abstract point of view, transistors appear to be reversible too, but in practice they are not.)

They were told to not anymore host the extension on AMO, but it's still signed by Mozilla (and I doubt they would stop signing future versions), so you can still download and install the extension from elsewhere.

Also, Mozilla themselves provide a "fork", i.e. builds compiled with the corresponding flag, that allow unsigned extensions to be installed, after you set "xpinstall.signatures.required" in about:config to false. These builds are Firefox Developer Edition and Firefox Nightly, as well as Unbranded Builds [0] for Beta and Stable.

I believe most Linux distributions also compile with this flag, as disallowing unsigned extensions mostly helped against malware on Windows.

This reads like a guide released by amazon themselves. They’ve burned so many bridges with existing sellers they may be trying to lure in all new unsuspecting would be entrepreneurs that haven’t been given multiple black eyes by them already. “Hey look, amazon was really a gentleman, maybe I should go out on a date too”
“Just take down the website” is disingenuous. You, and I, and those idiot judges all know it’s often much harder, and sometimes impossible, to get to the website owners.

“Abolish all copyright” is a legitimate opinion. It’s wrong,of course. But it’s possible to discuss it. Don’t demean yourself and others by starting discussions with disingenuous arguments.

That is a very small part. Trying to replace subscription fees with targeted ads was one of the greatest mistakes made by the publishing industry. Paywalls should have been put in place years ago, and journalists should always have focused on writing quality articles that people are willing to pay for instead of clickbait "experiences" meant to drive ad impressions.

Are you redefinig the field of information security? Please read some basic material on information risk and security.

I mean,even just reading vulnerability bulletins and CVE descriptions should familiarize you with explotability and complexity of attack,they exist to help remediators prioritize more insecure vulns.

Quick example: 'ls' has an easily exploitable code execution vuln. On a shared terminal server,this vuln translates to severe loss of security. On a firewall,this is nothing more than a house keeping item with no real loss of security as there are no threats that can run 'ls'.

> They were all doing more or less what Facebook was doing. What did Facebook do so right that they didn't?

Oh god, this is so obvious!

They were the first to really hammer on the "use your real identity, as opposed to an avatar of some anime character or whatever" thing.

That made FB a useful tool for connecting with people you already know which turned out to be a thing that billions of people wanted.

That meant your mom or your dad could join Facebook and instantly have a social network. They didn't have to piece it together from scratch, and slowly piece it together with a bunch of bizarro internet avatar names like XXanimeloverXX or whatever that may or may not have corresponded to people they actually knew in real life.

If you think about it, things like LJ and Xanga really were vestiges of "the early Internet" where the main attraction was "creating a virtual avatar" that could be very separate from your "meatspace" identity.

Now, don't get me wrong! I actually really prefer that early internet and miss it dearly. But it's easy to see why it was utterly baffling to your mom or your Uncle Harry, and why Facebook's more straightforward identity model finally made social networking comprehensible and useful to regular folks -- you know, the 99% of people out there that didn't want the future to resemble Snow Crash.
One country cannot police Internet, otherwise China will shut it down tomorrow. If a site is legal in the country where it is hosted, then it is legal and that's it, connecting to Internet assumes you obey this simple rule.
That means it's signed with Mozilla's signature. Actually, I think extensions can maybe be signed by Mozilla even if they're not on addons.mozilla.org.

> We could probably never build such a Turing machine. I didn't mean to make any stronger claims than that

Fair enough. I got a different impression from reading your original comment :)
> Does this mean that chips would have less resistive heating?

No. The parts of the chip that conduct electricity to the active areas in current chips are already made from metal. Basic chips are made from layers of metal / oxide / semiconductor (MOS).

Current flows through silicon only in small areas, and the way chips work is that you can "turn off" the high resistivity in those areas and make them conducting (by doping the material + applying electric currents & fields)

In the presented work, an air gap is used for these "active areas" instead of a semiconductor. An air gap does have resistance, so there will be resistive heating just like in normal chips.
Were subscription fees ever the primary revenue source for print newspapers and magazines? I was always under the impression that the majority of their revenue came from ads.
What was probably the original blockchain was created for bitcoin and is good for that. Though the paper didn't coin the word blockchain, it described it "As later blocks are chained after it, the work to change the block
would include redoing all the blocks after it."

Then after bitcoin had gone up the marketing guys saw visions of billions in free money and started saying blockchain, blockchain!

I get the impression that the gas molecules are not being ionized, the electrons merely pass between them.

Thinking some more about this, does not dielectric breakdown in gases depend on electrons gaining sufficient energy to cause ionization in collisions with the molecules [1]? With the gap well below the mean free path, perhaps they cannot reach that speed at the voltages being used?

> That puts a lot of holiday selling in jeopardy.

Nah, he already missed the holiday selling. Even if it arrives on the 14th, he’s got 3-5 business days under normal conditions for FBA to scan the merchandise into shelves. Items are not sellable until that time. Also, since it’s the rush, count on 7-10 business days for that check-in to occur. And the last viable selling day is the 21st for Prime Customers.

Amazon’s guidance to merchants is to have merchandise arrive no later than mid-November for the holiday season, and to not count on restocking midstream.
Arcanist is actually a reasonably nice tool. It is certainly far superior to opening pull requests in a web interface.

The only real downside I've found with using phabricator at work is the lack of a decent built in CI system. You can integrate it with external ones fairly well but that seems like something you shouldn't have to do.
It's obviously not a "request" if they're making legal threats. And it's not payment they're demanding, it's the ability to track anybody who visits their site, whether or not you agree to be tracked. And it's not part of any social contract I agreed to; the (very short) history of the web is an ongoing negotiation. Paywalls were invented this decade. This plugin is part of that negotiation.

Browsers already have a mechanism for authorizing access to content. Many mechanisms, really. If a company chooses to use an unreliable mechanism, I don't think we are morally obligate to roll over and do what they want.
> Racism is deeply embedded in the fabric of American society.

Yes, I'm sure, and racism is for sure "a significant aspect" of police brutality, I don't contest it. But racism is nonetheless merely a stupid pattern of thought, and I oppose the notion that combating it is to apply more racism.

You'll note that the database doesn't analyze racism, it analyses race.

This would not be a problem if internet users had respect for anybody’s interest, including their own beyond the time frame of “right now”.

Because the mental gymnastics one has to go through, including in this thread, to somehow morally justify what is essentially just “I want it for free, everything, waaaa” is a contortionist’s dream.

So after you all successfully fight soft paywalls, will you feel better when one half of publishers is bankrupt, and the other half only allows subscribers to read anything? Is that the improvement you seek?
I understand that.

The parent for example had a gap of 20 years. It just seems strange to be relying on 20 year old notes, rather than what you see before you.

I don't know anything about the subject, and not saying anyone is wrong or anything.

It just seems very strange to me, how many parents didn't bother taking their children to the Dr X number of years ago either because of money, or just because ADHD wasn't a thing, so the parents thought the child was just naughty? Unless you start relying on the 20 year old recollections of random family members, which doesn't seem better in any way better than diagnosing them based on the here and now, which is ultimately what is important. I would far rather we treat people that have ADHD now, rather than had it 20 years ago.
Its a branding thing. Would you buy a childcare services from Jeffrey Epstein? Or give your investment money to Elizabeth Holmes?
Uh... yes? It's not very relevant, but I guess if someone was making some kind of hacktivist extension that did something like that, I wouldn't just take it down from the marketplace.

DMCA takedown for developer tools coming in 3, 2...
Yes, but you are missing my point. Link tax is not censorship in and of itself, but it does hinder the sharing of information, the cornerstone of the "information highway".

Removing a plugin, or any tooling for that matter, is akin to censorship, in that it silences a computational action. Someones voice may not have been censored, but their tooling was removed by force by the powers that be.
You sure can, if you want the Amazon Death Penalty. Muliple accounts are clearly prohibited by the TOS. They will find out, the seller forums have plenty of threads of people crying about getting caught.

And as an added bonus, you get to pay $2 each to have your units destroyed or $2 each plus shipping to get them back. And by “plus shipping” that means the standard package rate non-Prime customers pay. So if all your units are on the same shelf (never happens because FBA strategically ships between fulfillment centers) then you pay for one big box. Otherwise you get one package at full price for whatever is on that shelf or bin that the picker pulls your merchandise from. Times however many shelves your stuff is on.

Also, different accounts might help you erase bad _Feedback_ but product reviews stay with the product listing regardless of who sold it.

Edit: I should have put destroyed in air quotes. I believe this is where the items that have the “Warehouse Deals” badging come from. No proof, just a suspicion.
That's not really possible, and I'm not sure what you mean.
Police officers have a vast amount of authority, not just being able to decide when to use lethal force, but in how to or even whether or not to pursue a case. In addition, they are protected by laws and resources that make targeting police for harassment an extremely foolish proposition. Judges and prosecutors don’t have their identities hidden, why would the officer whose testimony is often central and unquestioned to a case?

Years ago, David Simon (creator of The Wire and The Deuce), wrote about the difficulty in getting the name of an officer behind a fatal shooting. [0] That officer turned out to have a prior incident of a shooting, and the case against the surviving suspect ended up being dropped. If the prerogative is “prioritize police privacy”, where would thenline be drawn for when transparency is/isn’t allowed?

I wouldn't say Madrid is the first. I live in Ghent (Belgium) and only taxis and public transit are allowed in the city centre. In Antwerp only cars with low emissions are allowed in the city centre, or have to pay iirc.

Ghent is awesome to live in thanks to this, everyone bikes everywhere when you live in Ghent regardless. There also are a ton of UberEATS, Deliveroo, Takeaway, and Bubblepost (post delivered by bike) in the city centre.

I am not sure abolishing copyright is "wrong," given that copyright developed as a response to a major shift in how written material was disseminated (the invention of the printing press), and that we are now seeing another major shift. A lot of the problems being argued about today, including the issue of paywall circumvention add-ons, have parallels to the historical arguments over printing. Given that copyright replaced a previous system of regulation in response to a new technology, why would we not want to replace copyright with something totally different that is better suited to a technology that has largely replaced printing?
This makes sense. the share drops to 25% after 10 million in sales. and more after. One would imagine that there is some fixed cost for adding new titles and maintaining steam store. After a certain amount of sales the cost per title is just bandwidth so steam is making more per game anyway.

Its also a hedge to prevent every large game seller from setting up their own store. Even if you are large its cheaper to use steam.
Huge tangent indeed. If only someone would open a thread or mailing list to discuss the idea . . .

The harrowing thing is, it really does look as though we were / are in the wild west days of internet comms. The more tech savy business and corporations have become, the more they have looked to monetize and lock down the web. This is not what it was supposed to be.
Then implement technological measures to make sure that this is the case. At the very least, don't just make data freely available to the user and expect them not to read it, just because you visually hid it! And if you're serving non-paywall pages to Google bots, that's kind of against Google's policy, isn't it?
For each section, start from the exercises, then work backwards towards the material necessary to understand and solve the exercises.

If there are no exercises, make some up (do the proofs yourself, try to come up with unsolved scenarios and solve them, etc)

For me it helped immensely when I had a fun side project that demanded new knowledge. For example, my chat bot side project was a fun way to learn natural language processing:

* its an "unsolved" problem (for various definitions of "solved"). I didn't expect to "solve" it, but every time I'd try something new there was the excitement that maybe, just maybe, this might be "it" (i.e. an immense improvement)

* the responses it produces can be really funny. If its online, others can have fun with it too.

* you can try lots of strategies and see the immediate effect. Not only do you learn about the math and technique by implementing it, but you get an immediate "feel" about the kind of effects it has.

Trying to over-generalize, it helps to have some "element" that you consider valuable, fun or rewarding to drive the whole process.
