I agree.

Reductive analogy time: A donkey and an elephant are walking down a road, the donkey in the middle, the elephant on the right, both tied on either end of a rope. Over a span, the donkey pulled to the left and the elephant, in degrees, moved to the center. Now the donkey is on the left of the road and the elephant is in the middle of the road.

The friction we are currently experiencing is that while the donkey wants to go further to the left, and has continued pulling to the left, the elephant has decided not to allow itself to be moved any further and thus is still in the center.

The donkey does not like not being able to continue moving to the left. The elephant does not like continually being pulled to the left and perhaps like to move back towards the right side of the road.

So they are both pulling in opposite directions, the donkey worrying that the elephant will use its greater strength to force the donkey to the right, and the elephant worrying that the donkey will use its greater speed to force the elephant to the left.

This analogy is not comprehensive, but maybe it will help someone frame some of the reasons why the one tribe is so angry at the other and vice versa.
Seems an unfortunate state of affairs

Here's what the conference said on the matter: https://www.blackhat.com/latestintel/06142019-black-hat-usa-...

It creates a healthier society if we can listen to people even when we don't agree with their views, thus I am not be in favour of this becoming the norm. It's also deeply impolite to withdraw an invite in this manner when no new information has come to light, merely a change of mind. If he'd been discovered to be dishonest or a criminal that's one thing, but "meh, thinking about it, we don't think we want you to come any more, even though we asked you before, when we did want you to come" doesn't cut it.

Will be interesting to see if they stick to the apolitical line consistently with others.
>Apple wouldn't care that AMD narrowly beat Intel for 1-2 chip generations either. They'd care about AMD's ability to produce chips at large enough volumes and keep the pace going forward.

I think there's no reason to bother switching to AMD if/when they plan on moving to their own ARM based CPU within the next few years.
Because it is their responsibility and constructed ignorance is not an excuse for "mere mortals" it is reasonable to demand the same standard apply to them.

A bartender can't claim they didn't know the cient they served from behind a screened conveyor belt was too drunk. Thus the law should either allow the same sort of bullshit loopholes for all (a real headache) or they should be held to the same standard.
A vulnerability that has been shown to work should not be patched in the software more widely used around the world to connect all kinds of linux/unix servers and even other systems? They should wait for it to start getting exploited "in the wild"? I'm just glad that the security of my systems does not depend on people with this kind of attitude.
Ah yes, I too love the panicked rush of trying to force application vendors to patch once we we discover something is being exploited in the wild.

> You, and conservatives like Hurd, are against all abortion. “Late term” or not.

Well, I'm not sure I'm a conservative. I don't take a position on it since it's extremely complicated, and people have outrageously strong feelings on either side. I'm not not talking about what one side of a wedge issue (all-or-nothing stances on abortion) may or may not believe; I'm talking about a common value that many people share on both sides of the wedge.

From looking over it, he has more subscribers but way less views per video.

MKBHD is easily over 2M views per video where Guruji never really breaches 1M views and seems to be around 400K per video.
I'm also pretty sure he's right.

Yup, we added this feature to Varnish Cache a few years ago, random key encryption. It generates a random key at startup and encrypts all memory with it. Since this kind of memory is only resident for the lifetime of the process, it works. We stored the random key in the Linux kernel using the crypto API [0] just because its not safe storing any kind of keys in a memory space used for caching (Cloudbleed [1]). We then use the key to generate a per object HMAC, so each piece of data ends up with its own key, which further prevents something like Cloudbleed. Since we used kernel crypto, overhead was about 50%. If you stay completely in user space, its probably much lower.

> Either put up with your computer exploding and not being able to do your job for a few days, or spend another two grand to buy a whole other computer you probably won't use.

Fixed that for you. I get the point generally, but there's a great difference between "I damaged my computer and it will take a week to fix" and "My computer spontaneously combusted and it will take a week to fix". Namely, fault and impact. When you damage your computer, you are at fault and you are impacted. Fair. When your computer goes boom, Apple is (probably) at fault, but you are still impacted.

Though yeah, not backing up your stuff is inexcusable in the age of cheap, ubiquitous storage space. Particularly in the cloud.

Short answer is yes usually, and if not, you can always do inline asm. Of course, you're really, really, really not supposed to write your own crypto.
Split tests are not generalizable. This "research" means almost nothing for your checkout process.
Because the more complexity you have in software, the harder it is to keep it secure. Even security mitigations can potentially introduce another vulnerabilities. This is one of the reasons that as a general rule we should strive for software to be kept simple.

Spectre probably isn't possible either and that is the easy one. The load store buffer attack seems completely impossible. Even the POC had to essentially write a program specially to be exploited.

The attacks are very interesting and neat, but I think things like this and other techniques effectively remove any last chance.

Yup, people in UK carefully wash plastics, use separate bins, special collection trucks .. then the waste is shipped for sorting and recycling, only it's much more profitable to dump the plastics and take the extra money paid to "recycle" it. Richer nations have companies who know what's happening, but the people think "we're recycling, saving the planet", and the companies get more money, and the poor people make much more money than they would have. Everyone wins!

I assume this is still happening but there have been several exposés, leading some people to no longer bother recycling. As a reaction to that some city/area councils will fine you for not separating recyclables; our city vastly reduced the size of our bins (trash cans).

Most of our family waste seems to be unrecyclable plastic packaging.

1 if you publish Apples repair manuals apple with come after you, explain me how is this hurting the consumer, how is this making your phone thinker ?

2 Apple is preventing imports of parts from refurbished hardware, is this helping with the phone dimensions?

3 I don't want to repair my computer, I want others to repair them for me, It is idiotic(your words) to insinuate that people want to fix stuff themselves, it is not, is it possible to stop repeating this "idiotic" statement???

4 some companies introduce DRM to prevent fixing stuff, is this helping the consumer? how? if I have 2 identical broken laptops and I want to move parts from A to B to get 1 working one why should DRM prevent this? Is is my hardware, I have the right to use it as I want, it is a right to do with my property what I want if I do not hurt others, Please, please let me know why DRM should prevent me do what I want with my hardware,

About your thing phone statements, I am not proposing hardware companies make them like LEGOs, If they make it so fixing a key means replacing the entire phone or laptop the company will pay through their nose when the keys start failing, so I personally I am not your target for thin phones rage.
Exactly, even we're not at fault we shouldn't completely rely on other parties. I keep my old laptop as a backup in case my new one fails. It never did since I bought it in 2014 but who knows what's about to happen. Git pull, USB disk with backups and some installations and I should be OK for the couple of days I need to order and get the new parts.

I removed all registration and login components during checkout. Most people have an auto complete setup on their browser now and most of my sales are first time customers. Granted I have a small subset of return customers that ask for it, but I know from years past introducing registration opens up a whole set of barriers to the checkout process. Order confirmation pages are essentially a page they can return to at any point in the future without logging in.

I also removed the coupon code box completely from checkout. I used to get bombarded with requests for discount codes and people not getting their codes to work. In reality the way I used codes were in email promotions. I switched to instant redeeming clickable codes in emails and removed it all the boxes on the site. I also know it was a significant factor in checkout flow because I could google "mybrand.com " into google and google instantly starting adding in "mybrand.com coupon codes" "mybrand.com promo codes". People see the coupon code box and immediately head to Google to search for codes.

PayPal Express checkout is still a huge choice for customers. They can choose express checkout or standard checkout flow. Many people use it (30-40%). It removes the need to enter their address as well.

I'm sitting here typing this response on a 2016 MBP (the first gen with the butterfly keyboard and touchbar). Due to some thermal issues, I unscrewed the cover to blow the dust out and discovered my batteries are all swelling. Yikes. I wonder if there's a follow-on recall in a year or so for this generation. I bought a battery replace kit from ifixit so I might kick the can down the road for a bit longer, time will tell.

This is something really interesting. There are many apps, which tracks its users run streak, based on a certain activity. Like headspace for number of days meditated.

I would suggest for a feature where users with similar goals can track each others' run streak. Also a mobile app for this will be great.
I totally agree with you. Even though Jio has blocked many torrent website, still people find holes to download the content. Normally people subscribe for the 1 or 1.5 GB/day plan, which was earlier very much affordable compared to other operators. Not others too have reduced their prices to stay in competition.

One advantage is that Jio was totally new to the market so they started with 4G networks directly. The connectivity, voice clarity and bandwidth was very good due to only-4G network. Other operators were are still working on 2G, 3G and 4G.

I had earlier worked for Jio for 5 years and I feel proud today that I contributed for the country - in allowing the easy access of data to public. I remember, before 6 years I used to get 1 GB data for Rs. 250. Today for the same amount I can nearly get 50 GB data.

My wife also worked for Jio and today is her last day. I feel very sad now.

There is a very legitimate interest in the state banning bribe for international behavior. The US already face accusations of imperialism rightly or wrongly for trade involvement.

While it could be argued as "respectful of local customs/the fault of the host nation" being involved it taints the image of US as a trading partner as a whole and gives a reason for rational actor countries to refuse international businesses from the US for fear they will spread corruption because it worked for them before. By holding them all to the standard of "no bribes ever" it makes it clear that such practices tainting businesses are unacceptable.

If other states are worried about bribery (as opposed to liking it) then it gives them a reason to trust the extranationals - if they report bribery they won't get "Not illegal here" as a reaction but "It is a serious crime thanks for reporting it."

Essentially not doing so could harm the spread of US business which is not good for US economic power from which the rest of the nation's power stems.
> What Google's doing is harder and more nuanced -- they want to accurately capture the world as it exists around you right now.

I challenge that. I do not believe it is true. Google wants to be the go-to directory for spatial queries so that they can display their ads and make tons of money. The quality of the data is irrelevant after a certain level, as long as there is no viable alternative or people just blindly trust Google. Google Maps' data is quantity over quality by a wide margin.
