Encrypted DNS is great. My only problem (as a linux user) is that I want all DNS lookups on my machine to be performed by querying the servers listed in "/etc/resolve.conf". DoH as implemented by Firefox and Chrome breaks that.

How charming.
To be clear, I am not calling all the god-like players I get owned by hackers.

However, I am calling the god-like players who own me hackers, when I watch their kill-cam jump rapidly to each persons head with absolutely precision shot for shot. It gets into an area of response time where the human feedback loop takes longer than the response-and-inputs being delivered.

One IP address could have multiple hostnames pointing to it. DNS permits this.

I could register my own domain name, right now, and point it to what `dig facebook.com`'s IP address is.

I don't agree with your generalization. When you keep in touch with people you used to work with then some relationships usually expand beyond companies and employment duration. In the future they can become your business partners, employers, referees, spouse or just friends.
Not involved at all but I also wonder something similar. It’s like when you have nothing left to lose, there’s more freedom to innovate
Is this an add? What is the point of this post please?
Side note to this; what's the best way to deploy a custom iphone app these days? We were using a PWA to avoid a fullblown app and all the bullshit with not being able to sideload an app easily like on android.

Is there a simple way to get an app out to 5-10 people on ios?
I agree re: sandboxing. The security gained by a sandbox is immense and dumb programs and games I use should be restricted to their own little space. This does require some well-thought-out system level abstractions for users and developers to accept the new sandbox, but that's not impossible to do. Especially for stuff that should Just Work (R), sandboxes are a great tool. This isn't just a casual user thing, system developers also use Spotify and don't want to mess with arcane program settings and directories. I do believe that casual users will be using more apps that "just work" than power users though, which is why I mentioned them.

On the other hand, I do like to have access to each and every file on my system if I so please and I do want to be able to use my toolset anywhere on the system. For my classes I need to run what we call "PhD-ware" every now and then (technically advanced software that is great at doing one specific job but is mostly unmaintained and requires a specific setup to work) and that's never going to be compatible with any security restriction. I want to be able to override the system when needed.

golang is right :) Seriously though, Go doesn't have inheritance and I don't miss it. The only reason I need it in Java, etc is because so many libraries expect/require you to subclass.

On the other hand if the base models are cheaper to produce means that they can bring more premium features to a broader market.

For at least a few years, they have been. You can set a team and a signing certificate in Xcode with a normal developer account, which does not require any payment. To publish on the App Store, however, requires a paid account.

Sounds like you don't use that dev account much :)
The current title ("It was Bill Joy's password, not Ken Thompson") I assume is in reference to Ken's password being cracked two weeks ago. The title is not correct. Ken's password was cracked. Bill Joy's password has now also been cracked, but not disclosed w/o getting permission from Joy to do so first.

Discussion from two weeks ago - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21202905

Message showing Bill Joy's hashed password - https://minnie.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2019-October/018955.h...

A correct title would be "Bill Joy's password has now also been cracked."

As someone who took advantage of this deal, this no longer applies starting in 2020.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2019/08/01/volkswa...

Also it's fairly well known that 2019 GTIs (a pretty popular car) has a serious defect that has already started the process to begin a formal recall. It's believed that VW modified the car to meet emissions standards, and essentially broke the car in the process so badly they can't fix it. Most dealerships just buy back the car if you mention the problem.

https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/showpost.php?p=835026&postcou...

So I feel like VW is still doing some shady shit regarding dieselgate.
What am I missing, what’s the point? Companies can still aggregate data about you by combining data from those separate cookies?
“A High School Education and an Hour of Your Time”
I'm not convinced there's not more to that story. There was a massive organized bike ride that day, so hundreds of people passing along that stretch of trail when the mugging occurred.

Crime happens on the trail, no question. But it also happens in parking lots and at the local 7-11 and many other places.
Don't poke the bear.
It's not about "sunk cost". It's about making a new investment. How much would it cost to train all your programmers to be productive Haskell programmers?

Is it a worthwhile investment for your company? I'm not saying it isn't but that it is a big new investment if you're planning to make that transformation. Will it pay itself back in time? Maybe, maybe not. Or are there some other investments which would seem to have a bigger and less risky rate of return?

Since any register group is somehow special, "special register groups" are just an ambiguous concept that can be passively misunderstood to "obviously" mean whatever register classification one finds important, not actively "stretched" to take on new meanings.

Other commonplace "special" register groups include special purpose vs general purpose (SP, BP etc. vs AX to DX on early X86), different sizes, mutually exclusive overlays (e.g. FPU and MMX registers on X86).
Yea, early on in my career (right out of college) I interviewed at google and got stumped on a couple zingers, one I remember was not being able to identify all the use cases of the virtual keyword in C++. By no means did I put myself out as a C++ expert at the time. But getting turned down from Google probably turned out to be the best thing that happened to me.
Interesting that they are using Redhat 7.6 with a 3.3 kernel. I'm guessing RedHat must backport a bunch of stuff in order to make an older Linux release work well on such newer hardware.

Not sure what your point is? Of course it's common practice. Of course it's useful information for the business. Of course it will be documented in their privacy policy.

You just described basically all tracking and analytics. This is what they are blocking by default for everyone except themselves apparently.....
You're wrong to assume so on the basis of this study. It might be true, but this study doesn't show that.
I think AMD has always had the talent, but made a bad bet with bulldozer's architecture of two cores sharing a front-end and FPU[1]. I also think desktop software (specifically games) moved faster than some anticipated when it came to taking advantage of multiple cores, causing them to be seem resource starved.

[1] At least that's how I think they work. One decode and FPU per pair of integer cores, right?
You should look into DoT instead
Happy to see Arweave mentioned here, their dev community is super strong and they're doing a lot right from what I see.

Fair point. I have noticed very little cheating in VAC-secured (Valve Anti-Cheat) games. Most of the times it is something like Call of Duty, PUBG, or even Fortnite (but less so than PUBG by a huge magnitude).

Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) is probably one of the best anti-cheat technologies out there given the size of the user-base and the time it has been deployed.
There is a scaling factor between mouse and human dosage that I can't remember off the top of my head, but it's not 1:1.
My thought is that with SNI (Server Name Identification), the domain is transmitted in plaintext as is. Encrypted SNI is a long way off unless everyone starts letting a 3rd party like Cloudflare manage everything.

To cut Comcast out of the loop requires the OS/Browsers to switch away from Comcast's DNS, and a huge amount of the web terminating at generic Cloudflare IPs with Encrypted SNI.
I love the idea and would participate. I have experienced your problem as well, I love to read great books that are a little off the beaten path and don't really know many people with the same hobby.

But how would you keep it discussion-centric, with consistent high-quality, high-effort content instead of accidentally turning into a knockoff of Goodreads? Also, how will this be any different than a simple online forum about literature?
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

I think is most likely inconsistent reviewing. I've seen this with Apple, as well as with Google. The apps stores need to have very clear guidelines and well-defined appeal process, possibly with 3rd party arbitration.
so if a person puts a number on a page, that also means they want everyone scraping it? that's not a very privacy-friendly perspective.
It's also quite educational and interesting when he has good guests on. I don't know why people have to judge the entire podcast based on his worst guests when there is simply no other mainstream outlet, or at least one as big as Rogan's, that has nearly as many interesting scientists, philosophers, journalists, etc. on. Yes he also has idiots on. So what? The point is the entire world steps through that studio and people blanket generalize the podcast away whenever he has someone they disagree with on, which is a sad stance to take in my opinion.
At my workplace the organisation is pretty flat (director of IT services is officially the only one above ~25 devs and ops people, and he's busy with sales and long term strategy).

I miss having more people with official power when discussions go on and on without reaching a conclusion, and when there is work that everybody agrees needs doing but nobody wants to do.

Of course if whistleblowers weren't routinely completely destroyed by the state he might have chosen that path instead.
It's also a pretty great way to lose existing users. I know that this sort of thing always gets me to immediately uninstall the app.
OTOH, I updated a test MBP to Catalina yesterday and after the update completed, I looked at the desktop and thought: 'well hello iOS 13 on MBP.' I really wish the consumer fluff wouldn't keep leaking on my work equipment.

1. The man behind Telegram cannot even safely visit Russia after people with friends in high places stole his previous startup there or so the story goes.

2. As have been pointed out before, while this is really bad if true, but you are pointing to something that happened extremely early in the development of Telegram and later fixed (and as I've mentioned before you keep throwing a link to an old Russian post in a forun where most people have never read a word Russian. I'll add this time that it is almost as you don't want anyone to read it.)
TLDR; [ email + git(markdown + wiki) + google calendar ]

Tried and failed :

* emacs(org-mode)

* plain text files

* markdown files

* tiddlywiki/ mediawiki/bunch of other wikis

* google keep

* one note

* notational velocity

* anki

* evernote

What "works for me (TM)":

I use a separate email just for this. Every new thought, todo, bookmarks, quotes, images of doodles, event, information about people becomes a new email.

Updates are email replies on last email on that subject. Todos are right there in my inbox reminding me each time I open up my email (many times a day). Once/twice a month I go though my email history. Any email with enough content or insight to a "WIP" wiki page in my git repo.

Whenever I find time or feel like the need to research some concept that I left mid way, I go through my queue (my WIP page) of pending items.

If there’s enough content/files/code, it gets its own markdown file and/or directory. Common patterns, get linked via their respective wiki pages. Related topics are back linked and cross referenced.

This setup has worked well for me for almost a year now.

I do not worry about email / git becoming obsolete. Or how I would move my email/git data when I need to switch vendors. I can access it via any device I own or use someone else’s with just a browser. There are backups of my git repo in almost every laptop/desktop I have access to. There's no shortage of client applications for any of these to choose from. And above all... like I said, this system "works for me (TM)".

Something that was not obvious at the start but I do now, is to keep my wiki relatively small. Because the purpose of the wiki is to supplement and complement my brain and its finite resources. I try to keep the gist in mind and offload details and references to this non-degradable store for when I need it. I've deleted/merged more content than I have added. I routinely see stuff added to my queue and deleted because its a rehash of a concept camouflaged as something new. No other system I used did this for me.

I've posted this comment before [1] reposting as I still find it relevant.

Some of the top law firms could provide such a list, such as Wilson Sonsini in Palo Alto, CA.
Such a list could help inform future inventions, innovations and growth as well as founding team's corporate, fundraising and partnership strategies. Also, I would love to learn how companies that failed determined product/market fit.
But getting such a list requires some coaxing. What's in it for the law firm? For the failed companies team members. Maybe we can create a channel/site called "lessons learned", and give these people a stage to share their experiences. Now that may be an incentive.
The purpose of female leagues is to allow women can participate in sports. If all sports were unisex, then pretty much all competitive athletes at every level would be men, denying women access to an important part of culture and social life. This is pretty exactly what you advocate doing to trans women, who could not possibly compete against cis men.

Trans women are rare, and transition dramatically reduces muscle mass and other attributes related to performance. In fact, trans women typically have a lower testosterone level than cis women due to hormone treatments. There's absolutely no reason to believe that allowing trans women to participate in sports would prevent cis women from being able to compete. Trans women have been allowed to participate in women's Olympics events since the early 2000s, and not a single one has won a gold medal. You use the term "biological males" to refer to two completely different sets of people, which is dishonest and despicable.
Definitely! I'm now thinking of adding a 'radius' parameter which only returns places within a certain region.
DNS isn't encrypted. Anyone passing your DNS queries between you and your DNS provider can inspect them.

DoH or DoT would allow your upstream DNS provider to see your queries, but anyone passing them around wouldn't see the content of the queries.

Comcast won't be able to read those queries if they're encrypted via DoH, and part of their business model involves spying on their customers' queries and selling the data.

DoH has nothing to do with proxying.
Knowledge != intellectual property
You're taking the worse behavior of independent software developers and using those as an excuse to accept the atrocious behavior of Apple and their app store monopoly.

Apple's recent kowtow to China and blocking apps China doesn't like is a great example.

If an app spams you just uninstall it...

If Apple kills an app you love there's nothing you can do...
When you’ve got supermajority shares, you can basically put a gun to your own head.

Great summary of the situation from the article: “Neumann created a company that destroyed value at a blistering pace and nonetheless extracted a billion dollars for himself. He lit $10 billion of SoftBank’s money on fire and then went back to them and demanded a 10% commission. What an absolute legend.”
Claiming that the investigations yielded nothing is frustratingly dishonest. The conclusion of the Mueller report was that the president would have been indicted if it weren't for a standing policy that the president cannot be indicted.
