Children’s Denial That Improbable Events Are Possible
This is the exact problem solved by onion-routing. The first node is called "Guard" for a reason, it can directly monitor all incoming connection to the network, but if onion-routing is used and the system is properly designed, it usually doesn't matter. The only information revealed is the fact that someone has connected.
Well, the main identification method should have been calling from their own phone (from their own system), but who knows why they're not doing that.
One thing I do see that's missing (or maybe just not documented) is the power to specify the exact shape of the response.

One of the power of GraphQl is allowing us to specify how much or how little of the result objects we want. For example, a Blog post on a mobile app might just want only the short synopsis of the comments and the poster's name, while a web view might want the whole comment.
You make an interesting point about expanding social spheres and influence, nice. However, do you really believe in this concept of a conspiratorial all powerful MSM, that spans the political spectrum and co-ordinates efforts to refute viewpoints they disagree with!? How would such a cabal work? With respect, it sounds a bit infowars/trumpian to me.
Thanks, I was unaware of that. The shuttle program clearly had a very messed up safety culture.
Yes. There's a good article here explaining why various static analysis tools didn't catch Heartbleed: https://dwheeler.com/essays/heartbleed.html

>It is known that OpenSSL does not directly allocate and deallocate memory directly using standard calls. Instead, it used a caching freelist system internal to OpenSSL to reuse allocated memory. Since OpenSSL does not return (deallocate) memory back to the underlying system once it was done with it (in some cases), special tools could fail to detect some common weaknesses such as use-after-free or double-free that they would otherwise find. It also sometimes prevented some operating system and run-time mitigation mechanisms from working. In short, it is widely agreed that this OpenSSL memory allocation approach prevented many mitigation and weakness detection mechanisms from working.
I'd like to know some more about how exactly you go about executing the plan? The landing page doesn't go into any detail there.

I think you'd have a much better chance of getting open source maintainers' attention if they know more about what you do, your credentials, and how you approach working this out as a business. There's really nothing on the website!
I think people are starting to realize that openness is the only way to really control your content. At least in today's world.

If you put your music up on Youtube for free then you become the main source that everyone links to because it's available. You gain control back of your data, rather than having someone pirate it.

There's a number of musicians I see on Youtube who release everything they put out for free, but then have optional links to buy it on various music platforms. A lot of them are happy with the set up because they can make a living doing what they love.

The same strategy applies to writing apps and open source in general, and it's even more beneficial because unlike a personally developed music track, an application greatly benefits from having multiple people work on it.
Co-founder here. Absolutely! We’re working with the wonderful maintainers of projects like Caddy Server (https://github.com/mholt/caddy) and OctoberCMS (https://github.com/octobercms/october). We’ll be able to share more of the maintainers we’re partnering with soon.
REST is an interpreted standard for stateless transactions. How do you see GraphQL as breaking what makes REST REST? If you had said HATEOS, maybe there’s something there, but GraphQL does not fundamentally break the promises of a REST transaction as far as I can tell.
That’s mostly surface talk. They invaded fewer countries than the US has, sticking mostly to supporting rebellion.

The US and Europe squashed home grown communism mostly through things like social security, unemployment insurance, and a helping of good old propaganda. Yet, we where suckered into fighting ideology on foreign soil with military force.

I don’t think it was obvious at the time, but going forward we need to learn from these mistakes.
Where I live, buying fresh is cheaper than packaged. What’s missing are basic cooking skills. And before you get into “urban” vs “rural” arguments, I live in South Philadelphia and travel regularly to rural MN. It’s true in both places.
"Companies often aren’t aware of all the open-source software they’re dependent on".

Gitlinks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdaQE6FpM_Q) is an acquired startup that tackled that problem by identifying open-source projects that a company relied on and auditing the code to find security vulnerabilities. Might be worth it to get in touch as I think their technology could be helpful to you.
There's also a strong hint that the most prominent and successful Funds with long records of market over-performance were actually just insider trading all along and their continued success is an indictment of our ability to effectively police white collar criminals:

Why do you expect someone's voice to give clues as to wether or not s/he's a criminal?

More likely than not, the model would simply learn to detect minority accents and further help institutional discrimination against minorities (which are already significantly more likely to be sentenced to prison, etc).
It's quite possible that software creates new failure modes (as programmers I'm sure we all feel that to be true some days) while at the same time preventing more.

When the software fails (if it did) we assume the software makes it more dangerous because we have a concrete example of what happened but not what could have happened in it's absence.

This is what may eventually stall self driving cars for many years, the first time one does the PR equivalent of smashing through the local orphanage.

We as a society are notoriously poor at assessing systemic risks.

Now to address your point about evidence, I'm curious how you could control for other confounding factors.

Airliners are safer today than ever before (based on passenger miles) but how do you control for better engines, material science, procedures if you compare say 1979 to 2019.

I expect it would just categorize all younger men with African American accents and a gradeschool vocabulary as criminals. 37.1% of 20-to 34-year old black men without a high school diploma or equivalent are currently incarcerated.

Oh, that's what's going on. If I search, for example, "proton transfer balalaika" I get search results where the first few results are "Missing: balalaika | Must include: balalaika" but a result after these has all three search terms.

I've been wondering what Google now thinks the word "must" means and why they're putting pages that don't include words that I've used above pages that do.

That's frustrating. Low-volume sites represent a significant portion of the web results I need.
Aye, the statement was many on the inside to one on the outside, yeah? =] For the "kingpin" scenario, it would be many on the outside to one on the inside, right?

(Admittedly, I may be misunderstanding, which is why I'm asking.)
Turns out a lot of people are willing to be unethical for a lot of money. If you can convince people to murder people and render them down to soap you can probably convince people to build spyware. You can even pretend that such data will never be used in a prejudicial fashion say to deny people employment in the future based on some social score.

Come on guys we just want to build a better ad what could possibly go wrong!

You could actually go even further and draw more parallels between newspapers and streaming (especially podcasts). Yeah, you could store huge archives of old newspapers that are difficult to organize and look after. But it was fundamentally ephemeral, printed on cheap paper and all. And, that nature lent itself to a business model that lasted many decades. (Newspaper companies would have had a hard time surviving, after all, if you just kept reading the same twenty papers from your bookshelf)
I was worried about the difference too, I'm glad you are focusing on a single thing to make it work.

The Cold, Hard Facts of Freezing to Death
Not OP, but I'm keeping a close eye on pulsar.

Im not sure I'd want to replace an existing / working Kafka setup with it, but if pulsar catches on, I would very strongly consider using it for newer projects.

I haven't used pulsar extensively in production for anything, but all the setup and testing I've done on my own was a pleasure. Hoping pulsar continues to grow.
hmm there were some new pieces of information to me, I guess I'm not spending enough time in game chats talking with rural kazakhs.

Interesting theory that only people of a certain race should cover that race. I guess this has been wrong with journalism for many centuries. I wouldn't even have realized that an Indonesian covering Brexit would be wrong, I'd be more interested in their relevant experience, knowledge, and sources to be honest.

It's a good point that this material has been covered before. Shame to see more than one article ever on a topic.

Also a great point that China's naval ambitions are also a story worth covering. I agree that it is journalistical malpractice to cover the massive continent spanning belt and road initiative at all when naval power is more important according to your extensive analysis.

Rhetorical questions are definitely just always wrong, thanks for pointing that out and then using 5 of them yourself.
It'll sting internally, for sure. For how long? Not sure but I'd say it'll halt release processes for maybe a week or two.

Any large organization resorts to using enterprise certs for beta and QA distributions of an app as the device limits are unrealistically low for them. These things tend to have cycles where a features have to get in by a certain date and then builds are sent off for beta and QA testing. There's no question this issue throws a wrench in this process.

A solution to this problem is signing it with another enterprise cert. I don't know if all of Facebook's enterprise signing certs were revoked or just the one used for this app and even if FB tried applying for a new one (maybe through a subsidiary?) that takes time.
Sure but once they start moving into the pen register side of things to connect the dots between the folks on the other side of a prison phone call and the second level of connections they create you start to get into some gray-er areas. It becomes easier to dig through a trash can to find cause for a warrant than to use the call + pen register data.
>why aren't you asking Apple to pay tax where the jobs are?

Because it's an American company?

Similarly, I'm all for Huawei and Lenovo paying taxes in China.
>Let's see how it plays out on the future.

Exactly as you'd expect. Aphex Twin had a CD that included the video on the data portion of the CD (I think it was Windowlicker, circa 1999) - but you had to unlock the video online. After a couple of years, the server shut down, and you no longer had access to the video.

Of course, someone released a crack, and eventually the advent of YouTube negated that particular problem.

I still keep local copies of my music. Part of this is because I have a not insignificant amount of music that I listen to that is not and might never be part of a subscription service. Part of it is because I've experienced early attempts at controlling access to music and video that I purchased, and saw how that failed, and I don't plan on risking that loss again.

Interesting, I will agree that configuring an express server and GQL resolvers has a similar structure, in that they're composed of "routes" and "handlers" ("types" and "resolvers").

The biggest potential use case here would be to allow the server to expose a REST-style API as well as a GraphQL one with the same codebase - is that supported by this package? IMO it definitely should be.

The only other reason I can think of to use this is if you are used to writing express servers and don't want to change, which isn't a very good reason to use yet another package. graphql-tools makes writing the server pretty dead easy.
I'm probably misunderstanding but that would be many on the outside speaking to one on the inside, yeah?
Private vs public has no implications here. Both house people who broke laws. You aren't being voice printed in your home by the American prison system be it public or private because you aren't in the American Prison system.

The problem with metamaterials that have interesting macro-scale properties has always been manufacturing them cost-effectively and in quantity.

It hardly matters if this stuff has a better strength-to-weight ratio than titanium if it also costs 1000 times as much to make an airplane wing out of it.

"Metallic wood" is a very misleading term, too. The material in question is nickel with a cellularized structure resembling wood, rather than a cellulose variant that has undergone some process that bestowed metal-like properties upon it. A more accurate term would have been "xyloid metal" or "ligneous metal".

I've never flown an E190, but if you Google the basic systems description you'll find that it has two sets of trim controls and on top of that separate override controls.

Both circuits are electric, but they are separate systems on separate power busses to ensure you always have control.
Either the law about tax is bad, so it should be repealed.

Ah, apologies. I guess my optimism was too great that this made more than local news.

I can't find an english-language article about the story, so here is a german one:

https://m.dw.com/de/der-bauskandal-um-das-world-conference-c...

To summarize the story:

Bonn used to be the capital of West Germany during the Cold War. When that was over, however, Berlin got reassigned as capital and Bonn went back to being a mostly ordinary small town.

They never quite got over the demotion though and the city made numerous attempts at staying internationally relevant. One project was to become a UN base of operations for Germany. Apparently for that, it's a requirement that your build an oversized hotel and conference venue.

The city had trouble finding investors for the project, but eventually a korean company - "SMI Hyundai" stepped forward.

If you want to believe the official records, then apparently due diligence went out the window at the mention of the name "Hyundai". City officials assumed that they were somehow affiliated with the automaker and were quick to trust them with city-backed loans in the millions.

It turned out they were scammers and not even remotely capable of contributing to the project. In the end, the city had damage of several 100 million euros.

The company had never had any relation to the automaker either. It just "happened" to have the term "Hyundai" in its name...
Good luck with that, maybe you'll make it work.
To clarify, my point was specific to businesses like Quora and Medium that rely on high-quality content and engagement. These companies would have likely been better off as niche businesses with $10m-$50m annual revenue. Taking a large VC investment basically closes off that avenue.

Nah the demo was right. The impulse from the sucking (ie air molecules bouncing off the inside of the fan blade) is countered by the impulse from the air molecules bouncing off the inside off the back T-pipe. Different at a low Reynolds number with a reversible flow.

Allow me to ask a dumb question:

At the end of the day, how can something that is safely concurrent also be lock-free? At the lowest level, what is the primitive that enforces the safety, if it's not a lock or mutex?

My brain starts to run in cricles when I think of this scenario: two threads trying to write to one piece of data. To do so safely, they need to take turns. Therefore, one has to wait for the other to complete. Therefore, one must acquire a mutually exclusive... hold on, that's a mutex!

Can someone please clear this up for me?
