>However, that report shows the pilots left the thrust too high and turned the motor driving MCAS back on after initially switching it off.

I really wish the media wouldn't leave out important context when making statements like this.

If you aren't a pilot or an aviation enthusiast, you'd think leaving the thrust high was a mistake, but an on the fritz AoA sensor means you're in an airspeed unreliable condition, which calls for maintaining appropriate power for the desired flight regime, which in this case was TO/ascent, a regime generally flown at higher power.

https://www.skybrary.aero/index.php/Unreliable_Airspeed_Indi...

Or, how leaving the airspeed issue unresolved until the more pressing issue, the plane being continually put out of trim, is a triage call akin to what a medical professional would be expected to make in a condition where there were more problems to solve than hands or brains to resolve them.

Or how Boeing intentionally changed the functionality of the console stabilizer trim cutout switches in such a way as to prevent pilots from being able to shut out the flight computer's capability to command trim adjustments with the trim motor, but maintaining the pilots' ability to leverage the trim motor to neutralize trim against aerodynamic load through their trim switches on the yoke.

This is one of those cases where we need the layman to be accurately informed at all costs. There is no room for weasel legal maneuvering that we as a society can afford when this comes to trial. The courts have no authority over physics.
If two tracks were available, I think you'd see a large reduction in the number of CS students. The ones who did go the CS route would be the ones who had no interest in commercial software development.

The SE route would insure that graduating students have experience in modern tools and techniques.

Sigh -- unfortunately the same demographic shifts and aging of the economy problems trickle down into the need / market for education.

Our parents generation valued a degree because at the time, a growing post-war economy allowed almost anyone to hold down a stable, well-earning, middle-class job even without a college degree. Having a college degree, especially a graduate degree distinguished you so much as to put you on the track to be that generation's 1%. Ok, maybe 10%. But "Go to college" was still good advice to stand out and have an advantage.

Unfortunately as they say, if things cannot last forever, they end. The age of easy jobs and growth slowed (unavoidable demographic fate), positions requiring little more than a warm body were occupied by boomers who don't retire, and pretty soon a college degree became mandatory just to meet the bar of jobs that did appear -- if only as a sorting mechanism for employers to see who they should interview.

And why could companies do this? Because we fundamentally have an oversupply of labor in this country. Most countries today do. The country was built in an age with a certain level of demand, which created jobs of that era. But then those people had kids, who wanted those same jobs, which were already filled by willing workers not yet retired. Add to that the spigot opened of foreign (or virtual) talent willing to compete for jobs for less $.

So, people follow the advice in a competitive market to try to stand out and get a job. But just like people trying to capture the $ boom of early baseball cards, as soon as everyone started printing them to ride the wave, they became less valuable. Now, college is expected, and not having it is the disadvantage. And when something is mandated, you can be sure that companies/institutions will latch on to it to make money. Maybe they don't call it that, or label it with a higher class branding, but yes there seems to be a demand-inflation dynamic going on, with little to anchor college tuitions except ultimately, people discussing like in this thread, that college is no longer worth it.
I think this would be quite redundant, until maybe 5-10 years from now. The 2038 is right there in the date, so not like anybody needs reminding.

>A third of people in the country where I’m from believe that really should be the punishment. //

It's not just apostasy that's considered punishable by death though, "encouraging it" is too, AIUI. So what proportion of those people are just scared that their objection to death penalties will be considered to be support for apostasy and so they'll die. I mean who would answer "no" if there's any possibility that it might lead to your death or even just the persecution of you and your family?

Maybe it's just the presentation, but to me this reads like a big push to dumb down what's left of personal computing to the level of tiny mobile apps and simplistic web/cloud software. There's a great irony that just as everyone finally has seriously powerful computing hardware sitting in their pocket, the industry seems to be moving away from powerful creative software and programming tools that could make use of it.

If we're destined to become mindless, media-fed automatons, I at least want my self-driving flying car in return.
If you're going to make that argument, you should probably be less vague. It makes a "big impact" to "some portion of people" that the Earth be thought flat, but you can't justify wasting a "long time" arguing about it.

Language designers don't need vague personal opinions masquerading as 'useful' facts, intentionally sculpted for inappropriate generalization. They need to know what the purpose of the syntax is and what the expectations of the language/user base are. Beyond that, you're just contributing noise.

And given that this criticism is largely against bikeshedding, it is interesting that you would try and justify it with statements of self-importance; bikeshedding largely happens because involving people in a decision leads them to massively over-value the importance of the decision simply because they are a part of it. You may be an expert on your own opinions, but if you're not an expert on their relevance, then you're not helping.

While that prefrontal cortex factoid may be technically true, I don't think it's all that relevant.

People of all ages are generally poor decision makers and parents, to the extent that they have a clear vision of the best path for their children do provide guidance, but their vision seems to be just as hazy as their children's.
The government can make your life miserable in a myriad of ways without a criminal conviction under the rubric of "public safety" or other measures that technically do not count as punishments, but nevertheless have the effect of punishment. If all that is necessary is for the cops to adjudge you "at risk", that can easily devolve into a Judge Dredd situation wherein responding officers determine guilt (or "risk") and take action without burdensome arrest or trial procedures.

For example, the sex offender registry has been ruled by the U.S. Supreme Court to be a public safety measure, not a punishment, and thus exempt from scrutiny under the Eighth Amendment. The new frontier in sex law enforcement will be mandatory registration for those considered to be "at risk" of sex offenses. This is already a thing in the UK: a man acquitted of rape was nevertheless considered at risk of committing rape by the cops, and they petitioned for and got an order from a judge compelling the man to register his name, address, and all online contact information with the police.

Not really. Tried myself using Edge and didn't work either. Looks more like a whitelisting of "supported" browsers (such as Safari or Firefox), more than a blacklisting of Edge.

I feel like a lot of this comes down to the fact that looking at job postings, it's not uncommon to require a certain "quality" of school to even look at your resume.

For example, when I worked at Jet/Walmart, they started hiring "category specialists", and controversially these people had to be from a "top 20 school" (whatever that means). This felt like a slap in the face to a lot of the engineers who didn't have wealthy parents to send them to an Ivy League or didn't want to be stuck with $200,000 of debt (not to mention the two dropouts like myself who were already working there).

They eventually walked back that policy, but my point is that this is a symptom of a bigger problem. It shouldn't be basically-mandatory to put yourself in a mortgage-level of debt in order to simply be employable, and we shouldn't be so willing to dismiss public universities because they're not "top 20".

Will also be useful to keep track of who are good tippers. Also with the little video kiosk things they have at the tables, you can serve them targeted ads. Also, keep track of who they are drinking with, this information is worth good money to someone. Also even if they are polite and never cause problems but drink frequently that's helpful information regarding health risks for setting car and health insurance premiums. As well as evidence to police after a fender bender, will definitely want law enforcement to have access to this info. And maybe they checked a box when applying for life insurance saying they didn't drink, but this proves they did - policy is rescinded after filing the claim. Big savings there. Back to that tipping information, maybe they tip people of certain genders and ethnicities higher than others. This could be useful to prove bias in a discrimination lawsuit if they have hiring authority.

Few parties dealing with people in any capacity wouldn't want to pay something for access to this really great database.

These are bad comparisons. There are too many people on Earth now for us to acquire all our resources here without a large environmental cost, which even without a killer asteroid is going to bite us in the ass. There's endless resources in space, so logically we should be building the technology and capability to go there and harvest them. A by-product of that is also being able to live there and have an insurance policy just in case there's a planet-ending disaster.

In short, planet-ending disasters are not the only reason to develop these capabilities, and it's shortsighted and stupid to continue to destroy our environment here without taking advantage of all the resources and opportunities outside our gravity well.
Probably. Still, nothing says you can't write an alternative article; falsehoods non programmers believe about programming.
My point above is that to call something 3D graphics does not depend on having per-pixel correct visibility and painter's algorithm (and others) is a valid method to render 3D graphics and was for many years. Applications using it either accepted the limitation (many games did that) or tried to overcome it by preprocessing the geometry to create clusters that are unlikely to overlap or by performing subdivision on the projected polygons.
If you believe containers cannot be secure, than you should be able to capture the flag and get paid for beating https://contained.af/

Having said that, I agree that by default containers are a poor security boundary - but saying they are wholesale inadequate is not accurate.
You make it sound like all possible paths suck. To an individual decision maker, just do whichever path sucks the least. If college is getting less and less likely to be a path to prosperity, I wouldn't be too upset. College is already saturated, and to the degree it is oversaturated it is largely oriented around signalling value more than actually delivering value. The less people that go, the better.
Your economic facts(though some of them don't sound real) are of topic in the security discussion. If a real war starts between A and B the fact that A and B respected all the trade agreements is irrelevant. Ex: US spies on their allies, so you can respect all trades, be allies and still have espionage. The solution would be to have security features, like open source the code, firewall critical components etc.
This form of argument, “Situation A has substantial differences from Situation B therefore no analogy can be made” strikes me as meritless.

It is only helpful to point out differences if those differences clearly invalidate the analogy. The mere presence of difference is not enough.
It's a marketing piece full of fluff. No different than people making flying cars of the future back in the 70s.
It is possible to run Docker in Docker in CI. At a previous job I built containers that ran docker as Bamboo build agents. The containers did not use the docker socket and instead had their own and their own `/var/lib/docker` directory. However, the containers have to run docker as root (I started docker and then dropped privileges to run the bamboo agent) and have to run with the `--privileged` option. The advantage of doing it that way was that the hosts image storage was cleaned up with the containers and separate from the host. Disadvantage was that you have to use loopback based storage which makes docker a little slower. I don't think there's a huge difference in security since docker would end up being accessible via the socket anyway and by dropping privileges for the build agent you're losing the capabilities that you get from `--privileged`.

Any reason you're not using LTSC on a medical device? It doesn't sound like MS is at fault for anything here, it sounds like you're using the wrong SKU. As far as I know, medical devices and such are one of the use cases for LTSC.
Can you describe some of the scenarios where that makes any sense? Sounds bonkers to me too.
The medical device is basically a WPF app. There are a lot of similar ones on the market. The whole effort got started during windows XP time and back then windows made sense. Now with windows 10 you spend a lot of effort locking down features you never wanted and are hard to get rid of. At this point I would much prefer to go iOS, web or Linux. They all have their downsides and upsides but windows is becoming pretty developer unfriendly. Just getting a quote for licenses is a six month ordeal with multiple meetings and contradictory information from MS. They make it hard to give them money.
>It's far away and of little direct meaning to you.

That's exactly why I believe small local news is far more important than national or world news. It's important to know what's going on in the broader world, but in terms of actual impact to your daily life, a road closure in your neighborhood is more impactful than (and I'm just taking a headline from the front of CNN.com right now) "Former Belgian king submits DNA in paternity case". For politics, your local city council voting to allow or ban AirBnb or Uber or marijuana businesses has more direct meaning for you than (another CNN.com headline) "Analysis: Trump and Biden escalate their fight".

Especially when it comes to crime reporting... you should know about shootings in your area, or car crashes or kidnappings etc. Things that could actually happen to you or impact your life. But me sitting in Michigan reading about stabbings in Japan or a sheriff's deputy being shot in Texas, or a 4 year old boy attacked by a mountain lion in San Diego... what do I do with that information? What is the expected outcome of me reading that story? When I am done reading it, what should I do about it?

It's feartainment, fear as an entertainment. I don't need to know it, but when I read it I become afraid and over time I become addicted to fear, and so I check CNN more to see if there is more things I need to be afraid of. It overflows into our local life too, we become addicted to fear and we know others are addicted to fear too, so if we share the most fear-inducing stories we become more popular as people become addicted to the fear we're spreading.

The location permission is not needed to use Bluetooth on Android, but apps must request it to be able to scan for nearby access points and beacons (both for wifi and for BT), since this information can be used to infer the device's location. Fun fact: turning off location services without revoking the location permission still allows apps to scan for wifi access points and infer your location with impressive precision. The list of apps that have the scanning permission is hidden somwhere deep in system settings.

Why is capitalism a goal in such a way to be detrimental to society? Why is it ok to idolise capitalism, to the point where it is the most important drive of a whole society? Where does it state that because of capitalism you need to have a complete free market where market forces drive every single aspect of life?

It's exactly because I'm on the spot of being a prime beneficiary of such system that I believe I can criticise it, I don't deserve the amount of money I earn while other people go hungry, I don't deserve the luxuries I have because I know how to type some stuff on a keyboard and make a machine virtually do some other stuff. And that is the point, the more you have benefitted from this system while trying to understand your own ethics that you realise how fucked up it is... I could definitely shut my eyes and blindly follow that capitalism is the rule and it's amoral and because of that any criticism should be deflected to "but capitalism is like that".

Yeah, I would prefer to live in a society where capitalism has passed this ugly phase and has been tamed to be as beneficial as possible to most people, not enable a system that left unattended or unbounded will eat everything in its way.

Most aren't out to maximize profits for personal gain. It's almost a joke at this point that you don't get into the business to make real money anymore.

The corporations that [in some cases, once and no longer] held the media properties that are suffering sought those kinds of gains—in more recent years it seems to be left to either companies or "benefactors" who want the outlets to persist who buy them up and inject money into them rather than taking exponential profits.

Sadly, many things that look like efforts to maximize profits are more desperate efforts to keep the lights on. In fact the numbers I hear talked about with any fervor the most are readership and awards.

Side note: the actual money-making business for the publisher I've been working with is their custom-content business. Basically arranging, design, and print/digital distribution of advertisements and catalogs for other businesses. This is completely distinct from any editorial products.

Is it that they're pointing to vulnerabilities, not exploits?

1. This class of device has known vulnerabilities

2. These devices are still sufficiently novel that they make economical new and different types of attacks

3. Organizations should consider how these vulnerabilities could potentially compromise your current security plans.
Back in the 90's some guy wrote a paper explaining that programming languages are in fact _design_ languages; whereas in most other kinds of engineering, drawings are the superior design tool, in programming, language works better. Empirically/experimentally speaking, you always end up with a more concise description when you describe a program in language. I suppose this is because programming derives heavily from the domains of formal logic and mathematics, which are also heavy on language rather than pictures, and maybe more specifically because you aren't usually modeling physical _things_. But the key thing is to recognize that you don't write programs, you write descriptions of programs - the compiler/interpreter is usually doing the rest.
