Reading the audit, this kind of confirms my base question when building infrastructure: If people don't do the right thing the business needs, why is it too hard to do? Can't we reduce the pain to do the right thing so doing the lazy / wrong thing is harder? People not doing thing tends to be an indication of boundaries and responsibilities being drawn in bad ways.

Something like the log reviews are a classical thing. Training a sysadmin to know all the new hot attacks and patterns they cause in a log is hard, because that world moves fast. It'd be much more effective to task the admin with a well-defined, easily monitored task: <Ship logs to splunk. Make sure logs are always shipped to splunk>. Might need some definition about format and which logs, but all logs go to splunk. And then it's the security guys job to look for malicious patterns in those logs, probably automatically. Ideally with something simple, like elastic-alert, logstash, you name it, from my own stack.

Similar, why do people have to manually enter systems into the host database? It depends on how far you want to automate that, but firewall all systems to access the central registry only, and widen the firewall after an authorized registration of the system. That way, the admins just have to rack systems with a usb stick with some credentials, and it goes or it doesn't.

If basic things are so hard people don't do them, something is structurally wrong.
Yeah that's another option even if it doesn't totally eliminate the problem it does severely hamper the power of spoofing. It does fail if part of your goals is to geofence content like Pokemon Go does (did? It's been a while since I played but I doubt they removed the region specific pokemon) since just disappearing in one location and appearing somewhere else hours later isn't that weird. IIRC in pokemon go some of the later GPS spoofers would have you walk around a map instead of jumping instantaneously from location to location.

Big companies acquire for the product not the innovation. Smart big companies will even leave the entity alone as not to hamper innovation. Most of the time they absolutely kill innovation as seen with Google and a couple innovate/grow by acquisition FinTech MegaCorps I worked at.

I’ve seen a few teams or line of businesses rally “Let’s get back our unique culture” after the merge. Not gonna happen if MegaCorp bought you. Everyone else already cashed out or left.
The problem is not so much that a corporation has political opinions (or rather that the executives have political opinions and don't keep work and politics separate.) None of that is particularly unusual.

The problem in this case is this particular company believes they have enough power to decide the outcome of elections. Or more accurately, the problem is that they might be right.
Maybe they just over-prepared you for college and that's why the first semester was so easy. Unfortunately a lot of schools make it difficult to test out of first year classes with just high school classes.

It's pretty frustrating to bust your hump in high school to get a leg up on college work and then be stuck in the same class as the mouth breathers who just coasted by in high school and completely bored.
I'm 20 miles outside of Seattle renting from a private owner, so comparable rent for the same 1br to where I grew up in suburb upstate NY. Shop at walmart, dollar general. Went back to smaller town NY last year to visit family, absolutely no difference in costs except electricity costs are higher there.
Rents aren't cheaper than what I'm paying even in the 'flyover state' cities.
Wow what a horrible website - the entire article was nearly completely covered with popover ads
I keep hearing that SF spends so much money on the homeless, but I don't see that to be the case. NYC spent $3.2b in 2019 [1]; they guarantee a bed for every person, every night, etc. If SF wants to solve the issue, look to NYC, and open it's checkbook.

> any profit generating device is to be a a bit distrusted and treated with somewhat skepticism.

Yes, but I feel that these days, at least on the internet, speaking with skepticism about medicine and pharma companies will have people equating you with anti-vaxxers, given the arguments are often similar
Super late responding, but I enjoyed your comment and code.

Unfortunately... yes to both your questions. Yes, it is certainly covered in basic undergraduate "Data Structures and Algorithms."

And yes, I would have trouble writing what you just wrote in 45 minutes at a whiteboard, unless I studied up in advance. I know the algorithm in the back of my mind, and I'd be able to hack away at it. I don't mean in assembly, or in minimal space, I just mean a reasonably efficient implementation of quick sort in a high level language like python ruby or java. Again, I could do this with a bit of study, though I'm no longer inclined to do that study. I can't think of a reason, other than interview exams, for me to front load "into to data structures" into short term memory for a midterm exam one. more. time.

Maybe it does say something about my skill and mind set as a developer, that it would take much longer for me to do this than it would for you. I'm ok with that, as long as we're clear on what "basic" coding means.

I maintain that it is an immensely different thing to say you're weeding out people who don't have basic coding skills when the test is "fizzbuzz" vs "implement merge sort".
They are a lot more secure. Magstripe fraud is rampant, an accepted fact of life. Breaches of chip cards are extremely rare and not a fact of life.

Or can you back up this insinuation that smartcard chips that digitally sign transactions are no more secure than magstripes anyone can duplicate?
I'm beginning to think this issue might self-correct.

As more properties end up being owned by investors, the voting power of owners (as a category) is commensurately lower, since a single investor usually owns multiple properties, yet gets only one vote.

As the number of renters increases, they can support zoning changes that add supply and reduce their costs.
The only choice that doesn't route me to the CFPB is:

>The company asked me to pay a fee before they would issue me credit.
That doesn't mean those programs are effective. Lots has been written on both sides of the political aisle on this.
> Just don't be creepy and respect women.

Doing both of these and at best I'm friendzoned onto the Moon. Not working, sorry.
Unless your server offers some form of slicing of resources (containerization / virtualization) then it's difficult to describe it as a cloud in anything other than a buzzword.
That's probably what you were told by India mainstream media(read pro-western). 'Sati'(widow threw herself on to her husband's funeral pyre) was never a part of broadly accepted Hindu culture. It was practiced only in some areas in West Bengal,India.

If you want the read the un-biased facts and stories for pre-British and pre-Mugoul India then I would highly recommended: "India as they Saw" book which is collection of snippets from travel journal from foreign visitors to India during that time period.
I find this chart by age and cohort to be a bit more illustrative. https://imgur.com/gallery/UZVEt
I've already had the case of clients complaining when the load time was greatly reduced, because they felt the only way it could have been so fast is that the system didn't do as much as before. Which was true in a way (the best way to be fast is to do as little as possible) but the results were correct so nothing was wrong.
People in the Bay Area are just people anywhere and don't like burning 2 hours a day on the road commuting. You can hire them just as easily as remotes as necessary, given location appropriate salary.
Are you sure climate isn't the main factor? If I were homeless I'd go to SF over NYC due to the mild winters.
"You framed it as people who don't deserve a break".

I'm quite sure you can't find a quote where I did this.

But anyway, you're focusing on this from a different point of view from the people you're arguing against. It's important to take note that there are (at least) 3 groups of people with interest in this conversation: people who've paid off their debt, people who have not paid off their debt because they've been unable to, and people who've not paid off their debt because they did not want to.

Those who've paid their debt are pointing out that it's unfair to retroactively support those who did not make the same frugal choices. (This is sort of what you're arguing against)

Those who are in debt because they are hard up for reasons beyond their control are arguing for paying off debt for anyone who has it.

I understand your interest at stake in saying we should forgive the debt. But you're being disingenuous if you ignore the point of the first group of people.

Instead of hashing out what's fair, let's give tax progressively and give a stimulus to everyone. This has the same benefit to those in debt, but avoids both the unfairness we're talking about and requires less government expense in paying accountants to determine who should get the benefit (because everyone gets it automatically).
Why is that bad? Actual question - I'm a programmer, not a doctor (biologist :-))
Context differences really need to be taken into account if you are doing research related to different counties.I don't know why the authors can only see cultural/political differences in Japan but are blind to those differences in China，given that China and Japan have lots in common
I mean, obviously, all the connections and resources are nice

You pretty much answered your rhetorical question there.
I would imagine that the legal huddles alone (obtaining work authorization for instance) would present a multi-year mind-numbing experience, even with the advantage of deep pockets and well-heeled legal.
I feel like that is a pretty significant issue with the alert system, and could cause legitimate hearing damage. If you have headphones in, it should be assumed that you are paying attention and don't need to be woken up, and play at low volume.
Are you using web apps or presentation software for signage?
Or just turn emergency alerts off on your phone.

Average number of millimorts saved by those alerts I bet is really low.
My synology nas emails me every time it is down and every time Amazon or Comcast are down.

> If the country recovers and ends up being a more livable place, I do suspect Turkish engineers' willingness to move to even Berlin will likely drop commensurately.

After yesterday's vote, we're on a good path for this to happen :-)
Sure but that means your argument for building a new highway needs to be "it will get more people where they are going" and not "it will reduce congestion", and you definitely can't pull any "if people are able to get where they are going faster it will reduce emissions" nonsense, which does get brought up.

And if the problem you are solving is "get more people where they are going" all of a sudden highways no longer look like a cost-effective solution at all, and public transportation looks _a lot_ better. A lot of highway expansion gets justified by the claim that it will reduce congestion, despite a huge amount of empirical evidence and theoretical justifications (e.g. TFA) that it does not.

The largest percentage of homeless people are families. The largest causes of homelessness are job loss, arguments with friends and family whom they lived with, eviction, and divorce/separation. Drugs & alcohol are responsible for 15%, and illness/medical problems account for 7%. [1]

Then she would receive incremental updates over her ISDN internet connection. For those not in the know, that was like two 56kbps modems duct taped together (welcome to 1998).

This one quote is an example of how a real tech journalist site should explain technology to a wider audience. Even though not technically correct, it’s close enough. The article was the right mix of technical and approachable.

Compare this to anything written about technology in the NYT.

> Plus there were the squatters, of course, since no one was looking after the namespace anymore.

Explain how ideally you think this should have been handled then? Specifically someone wants to register a domain name and how should they go about doing so and what specifically should be required of them prior to registering and what should happen if they don't 'use' the domain and how are you going to define 'use the domain exactly' and how you will review fairly whatever the interpretation is? How would you setup an alternate system for doing so and practically implement it?

Squatters by the way are a myth that was invented in the 90's by the media and used in an obviously pejorative way.
I think Apple would go with iSpheres, it sounds more expensive.
I don't think that's actually true. Rather, it's an architectural thing — because all these ad systems were designed without consent in mind, accepting is a no-op, whereas refusing consent requires an outbound request to set some sort of "do not track" flag somewhere (presumably as a cookie).
Turkey is run by a near-dictator and is right next door to a country in the midst of a civil war; it certainly doesn't look like a safe place to move to.
I assume it's a bit of inertia. Everybody wants to be there because everybody wants to be there, so the constant pool of individuals that didn't yet get the memo keep the wheels turning.

The bubble might already be deflating though.
An argument / possible explanation that I've heard is that the increased risk for suicide can be attributed to the beneficial effect of reducing lethargy and fatigue, effectively removing one major barrier between suicidal ideation and carrying out the act.
Thank you Samuel Adams
Yeah, same in Boston. We definitely have homeless people but they are usually polite-to-the-point-of-deferential to passers by — the complete opposite of SF.

The problem with your simple hypothesis is that the data doesn't back it up. Drugs & alcohol account for 15% of the reasons for homelessness in SF, and medical issues/illness account for 7%[1]. The data shows that housing costs and financial instability are the largest causes of homelessness in SF.

Isn't it about time all software/hardware in cars should be required to be open-source? There should be no room for secret functionality on something as pervasive and dangerous as cars and trucks. Especially if it's also kept secret from their supposed owners.
Hold on a second. NYer here. Yes, we spent a lot of money on the problem. But we did not 'solve the issue.' Not even close. Our problem doesn't seem as bad as SF's (perhaps just less visible due to more clearing), but we still regularly have human feces to deal with, train cars trashed, people screaming/disturbed, etc.

I think it's key to remember the difference, albeit overlapping, between homeless and emotionally-distressed. You can be homeless and nobody would know -- living in shelters, working a job, etc. You can also have a home and appear, as far as we're all concerned, to be homeless, by begging on trains or acting in other anti-social ways.
They're possibly thinking about something like the Amlogic S922X. A 12nm SoC with Quad A73 and Dual A53, its definitely more modern and more efficient, though "better" is pretty subjective. As implemented in the Odroid N2 [0], its not cheaper at $79 with 4GB RAM, compared to Raspi 4's $55 (or $63 and $45 for 2GB, respectively). Hard to say if they cut the board down to remove all the things Raspi doesnt support and scaled up to Raspi scale if they could match the price. If not, it'd likely be close.

Homeless encampments are illegal in NYC. But on the west coast there is this strange idea that you should be allowed to set up your tent wherever you like.
From HN to RPi4 order, probably 15sec. Felt like 15min when I found that a lot of sites already was sold out.
(A) It's cold

(B) Our cops are super aggressive with the homeless. I mean, technically that can be described as "policy", but probably not the way you meant it

I used to volunteer for an annual winter round-up, where a bunch of volunteers would get vans and go looking for homeless and try to get them into shelters. We did this on one of the coldest nights of the year, trying to prevent people from dying in the chill. We had no problem finding shit-tons of homeless folk, with the caveat that unlike in other cities I've been, they put a little effort into hiding from the public eye.

This was in the outer boroughs.
IT security people need to stop thinking in terms of disallowing “unauthorized” devices on physical (wired and WiFi) and recognize start designing for human nature.

Assume that the physical networks are compromised, and have all privileged resources only accept connections over VPN. Is it perfect? No, but it makes further compromise harder. The assumption of no trust also means acknowledging that you need gate incoming connections.

OP, your insinuation is that PRISM weakened US networks, but that is a misunderstanding of what the program actually did. Wikipedia:

>The actual collection process is done by the Data Intercept Technology Unit (DITU) of the FBI, which on behalf of the NSA sends the selectors to the US Internet service providers, which were previously served with a Section 702 Directive. Under this directive, the provider is legally obliged to hand over (to DITU) all communications to or from the selectors provided by the government.[38] DITU then sends these communications to NSA, where they are stored in various databases, depending on their type.

I personally think it's important to understand what types of surveillance our government is doing and not listen to FUD on what people think they are doing. In this case, there's no weakening of a network. The FBI provides a selector (email) to the service provider, and the provider uses their own systems to retrieve the data and send it back. The "direct line" that many people reference is to the database of selectors, so that FBI can push it directly to the provider.

The biggest advantage to getting into an elite school is the networking. If your kid is making friends with the children of board members of Fortune 500 companies then they have a chance at the big leagues. Otherwise they're just clawing their way up to middle management like every other schmuck.

Of course even then it's a total crapshoot, but there's very little chance of that panning out in the state school.

Yes, the idea of mental illness can freak one out, there's a lot of stigma that comes with it initially.
But once one learns that a lot of people have the same issues when they push past their limits things become easier to handle. It can even become a telling episode of how not to abuse oneself by accepting stressors that are not worth it.
Well. They may not of intended to do so. But they convinced me more than I already was, that data stores like Redis are needed. This article sounds like they already decided they had a problem with key value stores and tried to rationalize their bias desperately...
