Because replacing analog radio with digital is expensive as everyone using it must be issued with new hardware (cops, fire trucks, EMS, public transport, military, secret services) and all relay/transmitter stations must be replaced too. Sometimes you actually have to build new stations especially underground/in big buildings because what in analog could be a bad, but understandable signal is undecipherable gibberish for a digital radio.

It took Germany until something like ~3 years ago to finally do the switch.

>Obviously that screenshot/video together with electronic traces and your statement would then be stored wherever it is they store evidence, not just on FB/Twitter...

Money quote.

Twitter is not the evidence store.

Twitter is the place the evidence is gathered from. Along with numerous other sources. And no, they don't simply take your word that the footage on your platform was recorded at place X at time Y and is verified to document persons of interest A, B, and C. They take your word that a twitter post was made at time W containing video N. That's all. I think you may have misunderstood what you were signing if you thought that your signature validated and verified the content of a twitter post. (Or any internet post for that matter.)

That's what the investigations are for, investigations that I can assure you entail far more than twitter posts when you're talking about war crimes.

Crimes require evidence. Real evidence, not twitter posts.
Does encrypted SNI solve the issues that AWS are trying to solve by removing path-style S3 requests? Namely, removing the complexity and single-point-of-failure of having one domain, and making it possible for subdomains to have varying allowed cipher settings? I don't know how encrypted SNI will work, but it surely it must choose the cipher before it sends the domain, so it ought to rule out one of the reasons for the change?
In the past I needed something like this. Asciidoctor has a nice slides output just need a bit of style
I was going to say much the same thing. The only reason Docker got so popular outside of Enterprise is because there were no cost barriers - and the reason it became popular inside of Enterprise is because it had become so popular outside of it.

I'm sure Docker did miss an opportunity to reap profits, but I really don't think there's as easy answer as to how they might have done that.

IMO garbage collection is the epitome of sunk cost fallacy. Thirty years of good research thrown at a bad idea. The reality is we as developers choose not to give languages enough context to accurately infer the lifetime of objects. Instead of doing so we develop borderline self-aware programs to guess when we're done with objects. It wastes time, it wastes space, it wastes energy. If we'd spent that time developing smarter languages and compilers (Rust is a start, but not an end) we'd be better off as developers and as people. Garbage collection is just plain bad. I for one am glad we're finally ready to consider moving on.

Think about it, instead of finding a way of expressing when we're done with instances, we have a giant for loop that iterates over all of memory over and over and over to guess when we're done with things. What a mess! If your co-worker proposed this as a solution you'd probably slap them. This article proposes hardware accelerating that for loop. It's like a horse-drawn carriage accelerated by rockets. It's the fastest horse.
I've heard multiple times that you sometimes get understandable speech out of an analog radio where a digital signal wouldn't work. That doesn't make sense to me. If there is enough signal left for a human to understand speech, surely there is enough signal left for a computer to understand something if you have an appropriately chosen amount of ECC applied in your protocol.
Personally, I like Docker Compose and Swarm, at the very least for non-production workloads - they're just so much lighter and simpler than k8s.

I actually would have liked to see Docker not give up on Swarm so readily. There's absolutely room for a something simpler than k8s.

> referring to the sentence "just wait till you see what China is going to do"

It is hard to believe you didn't understand this phrase, but just in case I'll explain. It means "if China had been the dominating power to the measure the US is, their abuses would be much more massive than whatever abuses US has done or is accused of. And if China will achieve such dominant position, we will have the misfortune of experiencing this abuse". The validity of this statement can be confirmed by looking into past and present abuses by Chinese government, and concluding that if that government becomes as powerful and dominant as US government is now, it's lust for human rights abuses is not likely to diminish.

Thus, we are not comparing present to the future. We are comparing the level of dominance and level of abusiveness at the same level of dominance, while assuming that more dominance would allow the government to be more abusive to more people.
The Thick of It is more recent (Blair era), but it can be thought of as a spiritual successor, and it has no laugh track.

>> This might be about to change as Australia has an election due in the next few week.

Unfortunately, the opposition is also backed by the CFMEU (Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union) which includes the Mining & Energy workers.

As such, the opposition isn't likely to take action that threatens the jobs of union members.

The other thing to remember is that minerals dwarf all other parts of the Australian economy. Turning off coal will tank the Australian economy, this represents a real challenge for any prospective government.

We've already seen what happened to the Australian dollar when China's northern port of Dalian banned imports of Australian coal and will cap overall coal imports from all sources for 2019 at 12 million tonnes.

Australia rapidly needs to grow other industries. An obvious place to start would be to recreate the manufacturing industries that have all but been destroyed[1].

It would be nice if languages provided mechanisms to support composition without the bureaucracy.

Why should we write a ton of boilerplate just to forward a message to a contained object? Why can't we just have:

type MyType {
member containedObject SomeOtherType
forwardTo(containedObject) MethodA, MethodB as SomeOtherName, MethodC
method SomeNewMethod() {some implementation}
}

Then the compiler can optimize the path to call the delegated object directly rather than through a secondary call via this object, since it knows what our intent is.

> It wastes time, it wastes space, it wastes energy.

But all of these are much cheaper than developer labour and reputation damage caused by leaky/crashy software. The economics make sense.

Anecdotally, I spent the first ~6 years of my career working with C++, and when I started using languages that did have GC, it made my job simpler and easier. I'm more productive and less stressed due to garbage collection. It's one less (significant) cognitive category for my brain to process.

Long live garbage collection!

What is even this supposed to mean? also the information "kill on sight" on your profile of a terrorist association is just one bit, do not worry about that. The fact that they are digital does not mean that the data won't affect your life nor that human or machine will take complex decision based on them.

> But all of these are much cheaper than developer labour and reputation damage caused by leaky/crashy software. The economics make sense.

Of course, with traditional languages, that's the trade-off we're being asked to make. That's my point! We need to develop languages that accurately encapsulate lifetimes statically so that we can express that to the compiler. If we do, the compiler can just make instances disappear statically when we're done with them -- not dynamically! Like Rust but without the need for Rc and Arc boxes. Rust gets us 80% of the way there.

The truth is with most of the Rust I write, I don't have to worry about allocation and deallocation of objects, and it happens. It's almost ubiquitous. We need to extend that to 100%.

> Long live garbage collection!

There is a market for a lot of kinds of content, but companies will gladly exchange some of their profit to push to silence certain kinds of messages and to keep competitors down.

There's clearly a market for an uncensored social media network, but Gab has been deplatformed from payment processors, web hosts, registrars... Companies that refuse service to Gab will gladly host degenerate pornography and turn a blind eye to illegal activity.

Much of this censorship cannot be chalked up to profit motive, and the only conclusion is ideological drive or collusion with other tech companies to help insure their respective monopolies and duopolies.

Here's my schedule. I do enjoy it a lot, and I feel like it's benefitting my metabolism, mood, and digestion:

2. Mon - Sat (i.e., 6x/week) I work out in the morning from 6-7 am so I do feel like I "need" a substantial breakfast to bulk a bit.

* Mon (fasting day): 30' of light cardio and a few minutes of cardio
* Tue: Weights (upper body)
* Wed: Weights (lower body)
* Thu: Cardio + Yoga
* Fri: Weights (upper body)
* Sa: Weights (lower body)
* Sun: Rest

3. I eat lunch at noon.

4. I don't eat dinner, but maybe a handful of nuts and dates.

Works well for me. :)

>It has little ideological substance

Fascism is an attempt to preserve tradition and meaning in an increasingly chaotic and senseless world. It creates order by demanding a return to organic hierarchical structures and by eliminating threats to a meaningful existence. Fascism is clearly incompatible with modern values which place the individual first. Individualism atomizes people rather than seeing them as part of a whole, and indeed today people lack the feeling of togetherness that is brought about by striving collectively for a higher cause. Some people can experience it fleetingly in the modern world—soldiers, for example—but it’s rare that a fire rages within anybody anymore. Everyone dedicates their lives working toward some cause and under some underlying pretense, but what is it that gives your life’s work meaning and to what end does your effort go? Now put yourself in the shoes of the teenagers who are so seduced by fascism or any other system that promises to give meaning to life. It’s not hard to imagine that in those turbulent formative years one would favor a way of life that, on one hand connects you to your past (culturally, geographically, spiritually), and on the other hand provides some hope that your efforts today are not going to be in vain—what meaning does your life’s work have if you expect the next generation to tear it down? You say fascism has little ideological substance. Its substance, to use your frame, is the preservation of meaning. Odds are, your ideology is rooted in modern norms that stand at odds with nature. They deprive the world of meaning. I would argue that that is worse than fascism.

Seems to me that the FCC doesn't actually want to stop these. Watch the senate commission deposition(?) of Adrian Abramavich. He says all these calls are routed through 5 or 6 tier-2+ VOIP firms who openly solicit robocall business and then blend the traffic to prevent the most obvious red flags. Just pull their licenses(?). Unless there's more to the story and everyone in the industry is getting rich from this, which sounds like is the case. Remember this is the same FCC that couldn't detect millions of fake anti-net neutrality comments. C'mon. Are we really dumb enough to think that they're that dumb?

If everyone in the industry is getting rich from this and the FCC is serving industry and not the people, then the plan of action would quite probably look like this:

1. Pass laws that make robocalls illegal to pacify the populace.

2. Charge one or two operators a year in civil court max, but not enough to actually deter people from doing it. And make sure to brand them names like "the robocall king" so that people think you've actually made a huge dent in robo-calling. Again, to pacify the populace.

3. Don't actually enforce the laws you passed on any meaningful scale and don't require technological changes which would stop this. Despite the fact that it doesn't happen in any other country, even third world ones, pretend that this is just a technologically intractable problem.

Pathetic.
Google could just display the actual link target on their ads. I'm vehemently against standardizing an HTTP header just to facilitate their continued lying about where their ad links lead. Of course, a user may think twice about loading a link to redirect service when they see the actual URL, and Google wouldn't want that, but that really is their problem.

It's sad that we don't hold one of the largest tech companies in the world directly accountable for linking users to phishing scams from spots they've sold to third parties. Instead we discuss how an HTTP header could make it easier for them to lie. Meanwhile, they get paid for facilitating scams.

> It would be widely useful even outside of ad-tech, when you need redirects for country specific subdomains for instance.

I don't see how that is the case. If I own the hosts and names involved, I know where my links and redirects between the two lead and don't need the client to ensure that it's correct.
I have never used matrix.org service but I had heard of them previously from their website I could see there was the word ‘security’ or ‘secure’ used a lot.

Reading the blog post I wonder how many security specialists this organisation really has as they would never allow these fundamental errors to be made even with the explanation that they setup their infra in a rush. Dedicated security teams would have surely fixed these basic errors.

I would advise anybody looking for ‘secure’ applications to stay away from these organisations who knows how many possible flaws are deeply embedded in their systems like zero days, memory leaks and more they did not even have a basic security policy system in place... please don’t use the word secure
