Parse data? You've already lost. What percentage of the population can do that? What I'm saying is that I believe the main effort should have been in data portability, not in the side-show of source code copyright.

But I can give you a concrete example - let's say you're a blogger - it's a large part of your professional output, and a great resource for the people in your field. Now you're not really techie, but you do keep the some original writing locally because you write in Word or whatever. But all the images have to be put in the CMS directly - you can't paste that in - and they are very important. Then there's a bunch of comments, which might greatly add to the post.

Then the place that was hosting your blog goes broke/changes business model. Okay maybe you have a techie friend who thinks about this stuff, but they maybe forgot to wget your blog for a few months/year [ahem!].

Those posts are gone. The entire stack of the blogging platform could be, and probably is, open source. It doesn't help one bit.

Those open source CMSs could have agreed and maintained a file format for local editing and tools around that. But they didn't because that wasn't seen as the main problem for some reason.
That's the definition of big brother, I wish there would be at least a button to understand why we see certain things...
There are some implementation details that the KVM maker would have to get right, but if they don't screw it up, it all works as expected.

Good KVMs already look at the keyboards they have connected, present separate virtual keyboards to connected computers, and route keystrokes explicitly based on state. You just need them to count the keyboards connected to them, and present a separate virtual keyboard for each downstream connected keyboard, so that the connected computers can tell which keystrokes came from which keyboard.
Yubikeys can pretend to be keyboards to type your password. It's a simple way to get maximum compatibility for a hardware key. I imagine there's other legitimate use-cases for non-keyboards to act like keyboards.

Still, requiring one to type a password in a newly connected keyboard is a pretty good idea as long as it's a configuration option. I imagine you'd also like something similar for the mouse. Maybe having to type a password on a virtual keyboard. It's annoying to have to do something like that every time a computer is woken up. You're talking about typing a password 3 times. Once to log the keyboard in, then to log the mouse in, then to select a user and log the user in.

Your other suggestions are vague, so I'm not sure what you mean by "basic". I mean, if one knows a driver is buggy, those bugs would be taken care of (from the developer's point of view; the administrator might not update the software, but what can the developer do?).

And what does it mean to "harden" a filesystem driver when a device identifies itself as a storage device? A filesystem driver should be "hard", period. All the time. That's something done when the driver is being written, not until it identifies a device.
Kids do things all the time that they're not ready for, or are above their maturity. They lack full control, context and understanding of their environment and direction, so they shouldn't be seen as adults just because they're emulating adult actions.
My girlfriend's sister (was ~10 at the time) is now banned from Roblox because she kept getting sucked into ERP with people in game. Safe to say, the mother wasn't happy when she saw some of those chat logs...

Minecraft is the replacement - no IAPs (as far as I know), online community is pretty varied but pretty decent for the most part, and the game is lots of fun even completely offline.
The Mafia also provides security. Since I've written the same thing to like three different comments. I'll say it again: Arguments that attack the morality of US action do not counter my claim that US action benefits many foreign countries, corporations, and individuals, who do not contribute anything to the funds that allow such action to take place. Depending on your point of view, this makes the rest of the world either calves sucking from the teats of a benevolent, but ignorant cow, or bats sucking blood from an undead vampire. But regardless of how you slice it, the non-American countries are basically sucking from someone.
I thought these multi-region searches were against Craigslist's terms of service.
In what way is your comment about price fixing relevant? I don't care if the lower price is because of price fixing or not.
Except that the the US gains tremendous advantages from having such a large military and projecting it's power globally.

And the US is definitely not getting it's money's worth it if the goal is world security.
For focused help, definitely see a therapist. I wish I could recommend a way to find one focused on this service. I wish recommend-me-a-therapist was a service that existed.

This is my understanding:

To notarize an app, you upload it to Apple. They'll run malware scans on it and such.

This only applies to people distributing apps outside the app store with the $100/year Developer ID certificate. If you're not signing your apps, I believe the behavior will be unchanged, because your app would already be blocked from running by default.

When you download an app from the internet using a browser or other quarantine-aware tool, it receives a "quarantine" bit and metadata recording the download URL. When you try to run the app for the first time, a window pops up saying "You got this app from shadywebsite.com, are you sure you want to open it?". Right now, the app's code signature is checked, and you get a message saying "this app can't be trusted" if the code signature check fails or the app isn't signed. Once notarization is required, signed apps that are not notarized will be prevented from launching in the same way as unsigned apps.

1. This will probably be a setting under "Allow apps downloaded from:" in System Preferences -> Security & Privacy you can revert if it breaks your workflow.

2. If the notarization check reuses the current mechanism, it will only apply to quarantined apps. If you're compiling something yourself, the compiler won't put a quarantine bit on it and it will execute fine. Same with homebrew/friends.

I ask some right-wing young men and they'll tell me, they believe in survival of the fittest and darwinian society.

The same young men then tell me, that I should be worried about race-mixing, and I should be worried that most men are not having sex.

This is, quite frankly, a fascinating duality of thought.

> Except that the the US gains tremendous advantages from having such a large military and projecting it's power globally.

Correct, further supporting my claim that there is no other country that can be properly compared to the United States, since no other country has corresponding military might and it is unclear how to value such a thing fairly.
I know that German universities are generally free, while, for example, their UK counterparts charge around 10,000 GBP a year.

Cool idea, but the implementation is kinda crazy. Good enough to just test the idea at home on your own machine, but pretty risky to expose it to the world and let a ton of other people go nuts making bazzilions of requests.

Also, exposed API key in the request.

Craigslist is famously aggressive about scraping, too. While helping with some university research, I found that their anti-scraping defenses were really difficult to get around.

They've also been litigious about this in the past, so this project would undoubtedly get a cease-and-desist if it ever became a blip on their radar.
Just one example:

No FVAR version mentioned on the website? (If there isn't one: it's rather entirely worth converting your different masters into a single FVAR master instead)
The key thing to realize is that malicious USB devices get to choose which device they identify themself as to the operating system, but have much less control over what they physically look like to the user.

If you plug in an old printer, you know you just plugged in an old printer; you can load the old-printer device driver and it probably won't exploit it. But if you plug in a USB stick you found in the parking lot, and it asks you whether you just plugged in an old printer, then the game is up; you know it's a tricky device, pretending to be something it's not in order to target a security vulnerability.
>Most of federal spending is medicare, medicaid and social security...

Well, there's also Defense, and then service payments on the debt. Those are the big 3 without question. So "the wrong people" must be in there somewhere?

But the real reason we give more to the feds is because if we didn't it would be AWESOME for places like New York, Minnesota, Texas, Delaware, California etc, and TERRIBLE for places like Wisconsin, Alabama, South Carolina, and Florida.
If you're employed and your employer is generous, then your insurance premiums can be inexpensive (low double digits per month if you're single, low triple digits if you have dependents) . My wild speculation is that most employers aren't as generous as they could be.

If you're "poor", insurance is actually cheap, because that's when you get public insurance. However, if you're just middle income, health care is a non-trivial portion of your income. One major health incident will bankrupt you and you're likely to become poor. But once you're poor, hey, you can get cheap health insurance.

The critical problem is that obtaining reasonable health insurance requires you to be employed full time at a large company. This must stop. Obamacare was a first step toward cutting the employer out of the picture.
Think of what it'd do to the insurance worker economy if we switched to a medicare for all system! It's pretty fucked up that such a large chunk of our country is now essentially parasitic.

(I say this while recognizing that runaway medical costs aren't solely the result of insurers)

The shear number of typos and punctuation issues should cause anyone to question why they are taking advice from this person, exactly.
Exactly, that's why you gotta show, not tell. We've been telling them stuff like "walled gardens are bad" instead of showing them a better way, and allowing them to realize that they can have better on their own.
That's reasonable when optimizing the average case, but not for the worst case.
> . But there are quite few people in DC who desperately want it to fail to show that government is no good.

And there are quite a few others that want to expand it to cost even more, so they refuse anything beside perfection to achieve meaningful compromise.
It’s an “honest” survey because the authors are using it to extract the data they are looking for (the most effective trigger phrasing to use in speeches, etc). It’s working as designed to provide useful information to the authors.

A push poll doesn’t provide information to authors. They don’t care about the results.
Partially yea, it may be that using the word "security" in that first post was a wording error that caused a bunch of people to misunderstand you. But then, in this follow up, you've mentioned that Norway is benefiting from the US lowering the supply of oil (I assume via setting it, and the people who extract it, on fire)... I am not Norwegian and can't speak as to their preference, but given that Norway is currently scaling back their oil exploration efforts along with the general character of Norwegians that I've met, I'll make an effort. I'm going to assume that the Norwegian ethical stance is against the US starting wars in the middle east and killing people to make their oil a bit more valuable.
I wouldn't call that great. Acceptable would be a better word.
Cambridge Analytica arguably had a major impact on the trajectory of the American political system. I’m sure you can come up with some people feeling real pain as a result if you think about it a little.
Could a reminder be enough to capture emails?
That was too simple to think of ;)
Hackintosh user here: this has literally no impact on anything.

If you turn off SIP, you can run unsigned kernel extensions without issue, both on a Hackintosh and on a real Mac†.

If you're a Hackintosh user, but for some strange reason you want to leave SIP enabled, you can inject unsigned kernel extensions via the Clover bootloader. (I think you may need to temporarily disable SIP during setup or something like that, I don't fully remember. I just turn SIP off.)

† I actually find this much easier than Windows, which is a royal pain in the neck if you want to install unsigned drivers.

Including room, board, and books, you're looking at something in the $20,000 range, and it varies a lot by state. If you live in Virginia, for example, undergraduate total cost of attendance for UVA is around $32,000 (https://sfs.virginia.edu/cost/18-19).

EDIT: There is also the case where you may live in a state with insufficient opportunities for higher education. For example, neither of North Dakota's two public research universities (U of ND, ND State) rank inside the US News top 200, and both of those schools will still charge you around $20,000 per year. Germans or Brits will be able to receive subsidized educations at any university in their countries.

According to the article, workers in Denmark see 26.7% of compensation go to "compulsory payments" including taxes and health care. Workers in US pay 43.2%.

Why should I trust your figures over the article? Are you including the "employer contribution" toward your taxes and health care premiums?
Why? Just NOP that check. If you have control over your hardware, nobody can stop you.
“I expect you to arrive at the airport 2 hours before departure.”

Doesn’t sound technical to me.
You know, I really don't mind the idea of something like this (which is really one of the added benefits of an app store), but I really wish there was a way to add different trusted parties that could sign apps. Sort of like Android where you can add third party apps, but actually go the full distance and allow separate app signing authorities, and while it should be covered in numerous warnings about not adding another signing authority without complete trust and nobody should be walking you through it, it shouldn't be terribly hard to do. If I want to install Amazon App Store apps instead of Android apps (or vice versa), that shouldn't require me disabling security mechanisms on my phone and installing a separate program to manage everything.

I guess I basically want the web certificate system but much more selective, and don't ship a bunch of trusted ones by default. Of course there's basically zero chance of Apple or Android doing this without outside pressure since it's essentially them giving up the monopoly they have over their ecosystems.
"long long" is proof that it falls apart.

Short/long were descriptive, meaningful adjectives, and in the context of 3 integers of different sizes, it made sense. "long long" isn't a descriptive or meaningful adjective. It's not even a real word.

Luckily, there are signs that this will stop. Non-standard 128-bit integers are called __int128_t rather than "long long long".
I did one of those, and later found out the one I did was pretty non scientific :-( I’d urge caution there

We should have sympathy for victims, without letting them be in charge of policy decisions. That pain leads to the opposite of rationality. It’s up there with “think of the children” arguments in terms of harm that can be done.

I don't really get either of these.

If your backups fail then you still get fired, but now it's for choosing an unreliable cloud vendor.

If you don't want to pay for your hardware up front, most hardware vendors are happy to sell it on an installment plan.

I think that "cloud" started taking off right after x64 servers got hardware virtualization support, and then you had cloud vendors showing IT departments how much more cost effective their virtual machines were than the single-application physical machines that were the status quo ante. Not bothering to mention that they're frequently not more cost effective than hosting the virtual machines yourself.
I did something similar once, the company had and legacy IE app that was in heavy use but written off as a liability. I refactored the activex controls and pitched a project to modernize. That project turned out to be a huge win for sales who no longer had to tell prospects “requires ie 11”. I got a hell of a bonus that year.

Hello fellow 40 year old. I run DDG as my daily, but similarly have a hard time finding exact matches for error messages. I am suspicious, however, that I've learned how to use Google's search controls (", +, etc.) and I'm not sure they work the same on DDG. I also can't find a reference on DDG for how to control advanced searches.

So ... although I feel like we might be having the same issue, I'm not sure I'm using DDG correctly enough to say it's a problem.
Property taxes are not land value taxes, and there's a difference between a halfway land value tax and a full on land value tax where 100% of the natural rent of land is collected (that is, all the external value generated by the surrounding community is harvested by the government instead of rent seekers).

It helps to know how (to simplify) a land value tax is assessed. The gov buys random property, demolishes the building, then sells that property on the open market and uses those data points to calculate a gradient. Then an arbitrarily high tax is imposed on the calculated value (e.g. 100%). It (in the long run) doesn't matter how high the tax is as long as it is high enough to capture all land rent, given current market assessed land values, since the price of land will simply adjust to the higher tax (a 400% tax could easily be levied). When such a tax is levied, no one will buy land except those that have a use for it, that is no land speculation/monopoly can occur. If you have more questions I would recommend asking e.g. the georgism subreddit.

They train different skills; for example, I wasn't a very well coordinated kid, and I attribute my driving skills to years of FPS gaming, which trained me to operate controls while paying full attention to my environment. Writing drivers doesn't help with that.
There was this terrifying idea I heard recently that at about 6 degrees increase we’d be looking at almost no cloud formation which in turn would contribute another 6, we don’t really have any idea what would happen then, but I’d guess you can be sure not much more pollution from us humans.

The difference is not just profit margins, but very different capex and opex. Capex on oil rigs is large (especially offshore), but opex is pretty reasonable. I would imagine iron mining has much higher opex. A better approach it may be to loot at the graphs of average fixed/variable/total cost, which are very different.
Similar concerns should be made for Thunderbolt devices, which have direct PCIe access - much more low-level and dangerous than USB could be.
