The problem is the alternative is giving your bank credentials and other sensitive personal information directly to a third party.

At least when the software is on your computer it's possible to analyze it to see what it's doing with your information. Once it leaves your computer into the possession of a third party, it's no longer even within your power to observe what they're doing with it.
You hint at or stumbled upon something known and valid but not really viable. Pathogens having their niches filled with 'neutral' bacteria makes it harder for to spread than just fully sterile. However while real it isn't reliable enough. There is a reason why surgeries involve both wiping down with alcohol before breaking the skin and prescribing a full course of antibioitcs.

So we couldn't do something like 'lets make good bacteria anti-biotic resistant' and chug large amounts of penecilin. In addition to the logistical problems and lack of knowledge for 'approved subsets of bacteria list'. We can't just say dip scalpels in 'neutral bacteria' for internal surgery as a replacement for sterilization. Plus if we were to get bacteria to act beneficially to us that would put them at a competitive disadvantage to their neighbors who don't spend a bunch of energy on playing immune system. But even that is getting ahead of ourselves, to be able to make bacteria behave in ways to reliably replace antibiotics and sterilization would require way more knowledge than we have.
Probably because they have to spend their grant money some way.

Thank you! I have been wanting exactly this for a long time now -- my phone is pretty much always on DnD for this reason. I guess I'll finally upgrade to 13 now.
Yeah it’s not that the post is immediately bad. It’s that I had an alt account for a completely different side of myself and made one errant post with that alt account to a forum linkable to my real identity. So it’s not a serious concern but I’ll be glad when it’s gone.
The response to Cambridge Analytica set out a clear social contract: to allow users to share their data with a 3rd party is to take responsibility for what the 3rd party does with it. Users cannot be trusted to read consent screens or make their own decisions about authorization. And even if they can, they don't have the consent of others involved in the data (whether friends on social media, or counterparties to bank transactions).

Companies taking steps to block interoperability is an outcome of the righteous campaign that this community fought and won. Comments here should be celebrating.

When I get a new phone, my email (and calendar, and contacts) settings migrate seamlessly. I've upgraded 3 times over the last decode (iPhone3GS, iPhone5S, iPhone6S) with no issues.

Same with a new laptop (4 times in about 15 years) -- I just transfer all the settings over, and I haven't ever needed to redo anything.

Working closely with people (friends preferably) who have higher "discipline" than you, and seeing how they grind their way through a problem is instructive sometimes.
Because you made a variety of specific points and it's easier to address them specifically.
Hypothetically, yes; but right now all this stuff is available on the clearnet and searchable. So obviously any potential harm of the present situation, is decreased. And, unless your argument is that we should delete all fora on the web because someone may have said something embarrassing on them, then I think you'd probably want to come down on the side of preservation.
I think you may need to define what you mean by attraction, then. He said again comes and goes for both him and his wife. I see no reason to disbelieve him, especially since that is what I experience with my wife as well. It's fine if you have a different definition of attraction, one where the members of both couples here (his and mine) can be considered to still be attracted to each other. But simply stating that he's wrong does not advance the conversation or reveal what your point of view actually is.

My physical attraction to my wife comes and goes. When that first started happening, it was traumatic. At this point, it really doesn't feel like a big deal. There are always more important things to be working on when it happens. (Probably not coincidentally!)

A bit later in our relationship, the same thing started happening for more general attraction. The decision to stay together would get very practical for a time. Again, this was initially very traumatic, but over time it became more and more clear that it was an effect, not a cause. Our focus shifted to the true causes, to the extent we could figure them out, and that was vastly more effective than trying to somehow address lack of attraction directly.

In short, my experience directly contradicts your position, anecdotal though it may be.

The best way to build something good is to have talent, intuition and ideas.

Usually the latter are mediocre optimizations of mature products, and they often reduce its value for the user.

> insofar as that being outraged over what appears to be a more precise weapon makes very little sense.

There is a rational sense to be outraged over more precise weaponry: precision incentivizes super-states to use it more, which in turn incentivizes things like surveillance. At the long tail of this shift of incentives one can see a a quite spooky/sinister picture emerging.

I'm not sure I agree. On the one hand, once you provide data to a web service, that piece of data is permanently out of your control. On the other hand, once you're running untrusted code on your computer, all of your data is potentially permanently out of your control if you ever reconnect to the internet.

As for analyzing software, even for software devs that's impractical. It's not enough to run it under some kind of process spy to see what it's doing because the malicious behaviour might be time limited or otherwise triggered unpredictably, so you really need to decompile and reverse engineer the program to figure out what files it can read and what it does with them. Not gonna happen. A better option is to spin up a fresh VM to run untrusted code on, but even that's cumbersome.
My claim is not that AMD doesn't meet the spec, as I've repeatedly stated in this thread. The claim is that it's different, and so you can't assume testing on one processor is sufficient to guarantee the results on another. And again, that this particular instruction is just one of many examples where intel and AMD will differ in their results.

The point of my plot was to show that the behavior of instructions like this is super weird and random, it's not something that we should expect to be consistent across vendors. It's probably not consistent across all of intel's CPUs either, but they're probably aware of and test for all of these.

Even if it could happen that would probably just be one freak batch of tainted liquor. Something that extreme would likely fare poorly outside of its extreme and rare niche in the same way everyone wearing an ordinance disposal suit wouldn't work very well for a society. If it could survive outside those conditions it isn't exactly privileged over all of the other bacteria out there and would cut off its own spread by killing people - even making it taste foul would stop it from infecting all liquor.
Rather unique and interesting case. I'm glad you found something that works for you.
This would clearly be amazing. 25 days is approximately the amount of time needed to do these things:

* Make travel plans

* Grow a head of lettuce

* Schedule and reroof a home

* Ship goods from China to West Coast, USA

Seems unlikely that we'll suddenly leap from murky, mercurial 10 day forecasts to 25 days, but I'm looking forward to when we can.
I agree that code that depends on exact results from things that are known to depend on implementation defined behavior is broken code.

But the reality is that a ton of scientific and high performance code does it, and simply declaring it broken and not dealing with it will not do you any favors if you are trying to work with such systems.

It's similar to how microsoft has to maintain decades of bugs because a ton of software depends on them and would break if they fixed them. Yeah, microsoft would be "correct" to fix them and declare the code buggy. But that would piss off a lot of people that don't care about this argument and probably lose microsoft money. It's the same situation here.

> So does it even matter if bacteria are evolving to be slightly more resistant to lower concentrations of alcohol, but are still killed by the level in hand sanitizers?

Yes - your skin is a mountain range at bacteria scales. And when the hand sanitizer is applied, some bacteria will be hiding in caves and crevices, and only come into direct contact with a much lower or no contact with the alcohol.
> If you only expect one client (or a few very similar ones) and you want GraphQL-like division of labor just have your frontend and backend folks actually talk to each other and maybe have the backend folks also write a client library for their services (my preference, most of the time).

Yeah, but same result is much easier faster with graphql. When frontend developer can in most cases just slightly tweak the query, then it takes less time then having to talk to backend developer and wait till backend developer even starts working on it.(I am assuming that backend developer is normally occupied and is not sitting around bored until frontend developer needs query.)

And also, it avoids friction when backend developer is one of those superstars who are difficult to talk with.
The Imagineering Story
We currently looking for a powerful query language for a distributed event sourcing system. It would have to be embeddable in rust.

Is there a site where I can see more complex datalog queries and how they compare to other query languages? All the examples I have found so far were relatively trivial and basically just assumed that you knew that datalog was super powerful.

A comparison of how to solve problem X, Y, Z in datalog, graphql and SQL would go a long way to convince people that it is a superior alternative.
Most people running these groups are not technical. Even if they got the word in time, the only option many of them could find was PGOnline, a Win pay software, which by this point Yahoo has blocked. Furthermore, even if they got it, what do they do with it? For many groups, the archives are a resource to be referred to. They need to be hosted somewhere, preferably with some kind of front-end search engine. Even better if the search engine integrates with any new posts on the forum they move to.

The Archive Team has been taking requests for backups of groups for people who don't have the technical facility to run the python scripts. They then intend to make them available on the internet archive. The next project is making some kind of front end, in case group owners want to host that somewhere. Some of us, for example, will be doing that behind some kind of a forum login, so it won't be search engine indexed.

As for your point 2, that was cut/pasted from the link in the OP, where it's describing that many groups are still using the platform. More relevant to this project, is that many groups are losing their archives, and those archives contain anything from scientific data, to hobbyist & howto information, to art and literature, etc.
> There is basically nothing which guarantees that the numerical errors that are within the error tolerance of the spec won't change in new iterations of Intel CPUs either.

You're absolutely right. The difference is that if a customer of a library like MKL comes to intel and reports a problem like this, intel is going to help troubleshoot and fix the problem, and they're going to have a lot of internal technical documentation to help understand and fix the differences.

> The differences that you're seeing fall within the spec. ... This is a flimsy argument, the FUD that Intel has been propagating for years now, and I'm not sure why you keep on pushing the Intel FUD so hard again and again.

The problem is that it's really hard to know if code depends only on the requirement in the spec, or depends on more specific behavior present in the machine(s) you tested on. Call it FUD if you want. A few people in this thread have reported spending significant effort on troubleshooting implementation defined behavior. Yeah, code that depends on this is bad, but bad code exists and sometimes people with the bags of money care about it.

We shall remember distributed.net, it was the first large-scale distributed computing project, and simultaneously, it was a major "armed force" which leaded us to the victory of the first Crypto War for the security and privacy of all.

In the first Crypto War around the mid-90s, the U.S. Government initially repeatedly denied the insecurity of DES algorithm and refused to replace it with a new standard, and falsely claimed that data encrypted by DES was a threat to national security. This stance was not only a denial of privacy, but also a threat to enterprise infosec and e-Commerce. RSA Security, Inc., responded by launching the DES cracking challenge to demonstrate its insecurity.

The first challenge was completed by DESCHALL Project, an university project, but it mobilized thousands of volunteers and managed to bruteforce the 56-bit keyspace in 96 days. The distributed computing setup was an ad-hoc one, and people realized that an infrastructure was needed for more efficient coordination, and it motivated the creation of distributed.net.

The second challenge was completed by distributed.net in 39 days. Here's parts of the original announcement.

> The correct key, 76 9E 8C D9 F2 2F 5D EA, revealed the words which we've
been anticipating these past 39 days:

> "The secret message is: Many hands make light work."

> (If you ask me, this is a nice nod in our direction. Thanks, RSA Labs!)

> In addition to proving that 56-bit DES is no longer sufficient for protecting
valuable information, we've now also proved that blind luck need not be a
factor in brute-force decryption attacks.

> Prospective: If Keys were dollars, we could pay off the U.S. National Debt in 6.25 minutes. If Keys were pennies, we could buy 536249385 Mazda Miatas each day. If Keys were pennies, we could buy 256728249 Jeep Cherokees each day! If you printed a single page to represent each key block as it was checked and placed those pages in a stack, it would grow 12.83 inches taller every minute. If blocks were liters of Dr. Pepper, we could produce 6381493 six-packs each day. If Key Blocks were cheeseburgers, fries, and a large Dr. Pepper, we could feed the entire city of Toronto, Ontario lunch each day.

Even after DES has been demonstrated to be crackable twice in a row, the FBI was still denying its insecurity and denying that the NSA was capable of breaking it.

> "If we hooked together thousands of computers and worked together for months we might, as was recently demonstrated, decrypt one message bit," FBI director Louis Freeh told Congress. "That is not going to make a difference in a kidnapping case. It is not going to make a difference in a national security case. We don't have the technology or the brute force capability to get to this information."

And finally it was the story we all knew.

The EFF funded to build the DES cracker, and collaborated with distributed.net to crack DES again in 22 hours and 15 minutes, on January 19, 1999. The U.S. Government was forced to stop using 56-bit encryption as the public encryption standard, and forced to authorize the NIST to start the AES competition. The age of modern cryptography has came.
