what are the security implications of permanently running chrome in remote debug mode?

a bit more than half a year ago I started playing around with this and was surprised how on the one hand there are really really good tools nowadays for self archiving but how on the other hand there hasn't been any progress in implementing these in a, for end users, comfortable way

My working theory right now is that saving every request/response as well as every interaction on a page should allow us to completely restore web site state at any point in time and will open up some super interesting use cases around our interaction with information found online

But in order to do this it seems necessary to go through the remote debug protocol like this project here is doing. And since this is somewhat of an unusual approach I could not find much information about the security aspect of running every site at any time with remote debugging activated.
Common web scrapers/archiving tools will instead only use remote chrome debug to open and capture specific urls

Storage is so dirt cheap today that there is zero reason why we shouldn't have reliable historic website state for everything we have ever looked at

And judging by the HN front pages of the last months, many here are interested in this and related use cases (search/index/annotations/collaborative browsing)

"This leads to the physically insightful result that one can use the rotation rate of the vehicle's velocity vector to track the path, while simultaneously using the yaw acceleration to stabilize sideslip."

This sounds like what every racer will tell you: When the car is sliding, you control your direction with the throttle and control the angle of the slide with the steering.
Not all people, obviously. But I'm tired of hearing that everything would be better if only people voted. People feel, correctly, that voting is not always an efficient way of influencing public policy. However, instead of hearing about all the other mechanisms which exist, they simply conclude that they can't influence public policy and abandon the stage completely. If we want to get more people involved in political matters, helping them find ways to influence what they care about with less effort than it takes right now would be the best way (not that I know what would be a real solution to that).
I understand that things aren't black and white, and I wouldn't immediately shut down a business if I learned it's in violation of some obscure rule - not without trying to get an exemption or otherwise fighting it, if I believed the rule is wrong.

But if you look at Uber's history, you get quite a different picture. They went into the ride share business knowing they'll be violating many major rules in most cities they try to operate, and then they just proceeded to violating those rules without attempting to find a better solution; instead, they continue to burn money to escape enforcement, and they've built special software whose explicit purpose is to help them hide from regulators.

Uber's approach to local regulations is entirely antagonistic, which is something I don't like. Adding to that all the other stories about their abusive behavior with respect to drivers, customers and journalists, it paints to me a picture of a very antisocial company - in the sense that they're willing to exploit and abuse anyone for profit, without paying any attention to laws. It's a much different thing than discussing an off law that's arguably unjust or out of touch with reality.
I loved ynab4 and actually build a smallish webservice to duplicate it's functionality after it went SaaS.

It's seriously silly that they still haven't come around to that. There are several platforms which let you access basically all banks in Europe. And these have been around for years.
They're not sophistry and it is important to make these distinctions, if only because not doing so allows those who continue to profess allegiance to these ideologies to get away with it. As a case in point it should not come as a surprise that there are few places in the world where those who present themselves as 'National Socialist' or 'Fascist' are given a warm welcome. What should be surprising but is not is that this does not go for those who present themselves as 'Communist' or, more recently, 'Islamist'. This is made possible in part by the use of the term 'fascist' as a stand-in for all those unsavoury ideologies as it serves to wash them clean of the crimes committed in their name by allowing their proponents to claim that those who committed the crimes were not 'true' Communists or Islamists or any other -ists.

It's crazy to to think that people are still suggesting people to "study history", as though history is a homogeneous mass that can even be studied as a whole.

It's crazy to think that history is uniformly in favor of the executive class. That somehow the brutality of the elites can be justified by their understanding of history. That they can't be deferred to some broader concept of morality because they have history on their side. This argument is the same as the one made by Francis Fukuyama in his book The End of History and the Last Man and it is fundamentally flawed in the same way.

Never have violence, inequality, exclusion, famine, and thus economic oppression affected as many human beings in the history of the earth and of humanity. Instead of singing the advent of the ideal of liberal democracy and of the capitalist market in the euphoria of the end of history. Let us never neglect this obvious, macroscopic fact, made up of innumerable, singular sites of suffering: no degree of progress allows one to ignore that never before, in absolute figures, have so many men, women and children been subjugated, starved or exterminated on the earth.
What closures are you used to? Proper closures capture local variables and keep them available, they don't copy anything.

If you replace an oil-fired power plant with an incineration plant you save oil that you can now use to make high quality plastic. If you squint hard enough that is recycling trash to oil.

Of course oil-fired power plants aren't really used anymore (at grid scale), so it's more like recycling trash into coal or natural gas.
Important features of any good setup:

- you consolidate your finances in the minimum number of accounts & cards

- you have a couple of months of expenses as cash in a current or savings account

- you pay off your credit card in full every month

- you invest some amount every month

- all of this is automated - paying bills, credit card repayments, investing, putting money in savings, all of it.

Once you have these things down, you can then adjust percentages, providers and all other details according to your personal situation and preferences.
If I was aware of someone wanting to fire me without benefits by forcing me to quit, I'd probably try force them to fire me with those benefits. I'd sit at my desk playing games or watching series or some other non-work activity, ignoring any requests from my manager. Eventually they'll have to fire me, or they keep paying me to do nothing.
Unsubstantiated generalizations are the sort I disagree with strongly. Why? because it never looks at the use case. Dismissing all ideas just on the basis of one thing is a documented Anti-Pattern.

Let's do google search 'storing blobs' to find what do people have to say with their experiences.

> Bill Karwin is correct that you can't make unequivocal statement that storing images in a database is always bad. I like a lot of his points. Most people who are against images in the DB usually are promoting the only thing they know how to do.

and I'm not talking about images. Object data that I would serialize is can very between 512b to 64kb (Always interesting to see the scale of memory nowadays, kb is so small).
Amazing story, a once in a lifetime experience for sure!
You can see this fairly clearly in the Lazard LCOE report. It shows how much it costs to build each type of plant seperate from running and fuel costs. (Pages 11 and 12 specifically, note the low end coal has no carbon capture so that's more appropriate here for just steam cost, and why the cost of coal overlaps nuclear at the high end)

https://www.lazard.com/perspective/lcoe2019

So low end, coal is about half the cost of nuclear to build, and gas turbines, which are simpler to build as they don't need the phase change (though some add secondary steam generation based on waste heat to enhance efficiency) are about a third of the cost.

Now obviously, to run those coal and gas systems you need to burn fossil fuels which you need to pay for and they generate CO2 (both things that nuclear will win on and regain lost ground, as seen by the high end coal costs with 90% carbon capture included) but we're excluding all of those things entirely from this comparison to try to get the cost of merely building and running a steam turbine.

You could say that not all the cost of the coal plant is the cost of the turbine, but it's unlikely to be much less than the cheaper end of gas plants, and we're not even counting maintenance and operation costs, which again are less for gas than for coal, so that gives us a lower bound.

So in this slightly rigged comparison, gas comes out well ahead of steam generation alternatives, they simply cost more to build and run, even just the coal one with no fancy nuclear stuff.

But renewables are matching that gas cost in many places today. Not only are they the same price to build, if you ignore the build cost of coal and gas entirely they're still cheaper than just the fuel and running costs in many cases. That's why many existing fossil fuel plants are being closed as uneconomic and replaced with newly built renewables even in places with flat energy demand.

I think everyone kind of knows this implicitly. Is there anyone, even their biggest fan, who has ever claimed current nuclear can compete with gas on price if you ignore carbon costs? I've never seen it.

Renewables plus batteries are wrecking the business case for building new gas plants and even rkeeping existing ones open. This will only become clearer as prices drop further.

The dramatic price decline of renewables is projected to continue. Solar plus battery storage is predicted to be cheaper than just gas running costs by 2045.

Which seems like a long way away in some senses, but if you build a gas plant today, you'll probably be relying on projections of still making money at that point, which makes gas less economic to build today.

And if you start planning a fission plant, then you'll be planning for it to come online around that timeframe and run for 40 years. So unless that fission plant will cost less in total than just the cost of running a gas plant, there's no point starting to build it just on economics alone.
We have a checking/savings account, and then various investment accounts at vanguard.

All income goes to vanguard. Each year, we move our total budget for the year to checking. Then, we pay for all spending from checking. We can easily track whether our budget is on Pace at any given time. If we run out of money, we went over. (Technically, we subtract out year end expenses like property taxes to avoid a year End surprise.)

We also have a 30 year budget spreadsheet that estimates our savings, expenses, and income Up too retirement. If we exceed or income goal for the year, we put half towards retirement and half towards a virtual 'bonus discretionary' account. If we exceed our annual budget (have to do an extra transfer from. Vanguard), we deduct that from the virtual bonus discretionary account.

Note that I wouldn't recommend exactly this approach unless 1 years spending is a relatively small amount of your net worth. We only started this technique in our 30's.

Looking all the points you have written, you never believed in climate change because all of them are the same debunked denialist propaganda.

I suppose you have just one proof of scientists doing illegal things and falsifyng data. Beccause you're not accusing them just ebc ause you dewny
Well, a very key factor of steering is that it connects your fingers to the interface between tyres and road surface and imparts critical information about what’s going on there. If you decouple the steering completely from the mechanical bits you have to recreate that channel of information. Which isn’t necessarily easy to get right.

Even servo assisted steering systems can easily become a bit numb. If you have ever driven a tractor it is very different from a light sports car without power steering for instance.

You could not have picked a worse example to illustrate your point. If your intention was to defend the person by admonishing me and meting out sage advice as a form of punishment, perhaps it would have been wise to read past the first tweet, whose contents you crudely paraphrased. If you unroll the thread and read the following tweets, you will find that it presents a litany of events ─ adding to an already chequered past of a man, who has a colourful presence on the platform, which has been documented comprehensively elsewhere in the media.
>First of all, not being able to distinguish between these three cases is precisely what makes virtually everyone who's seen this a couple of time hit the reset button as soon as they see it. That doesn't save any data.

It saves data if you don't mash the reset button at first sight

>Second, if a program is really busy desperately trying to save something large and unusual over a network and you see that message, there's a good chance it won't be able to save anything anyway. The network is usually down by that time, for example.

Systemd won't bring down the network until all services that depends on the network have been stopped. The desktop environment doesn't unless the home directory is a NFS mount.

>There's also no way for a program to signal that it's done. If, indeed, a program needed one more second to write everything, it's cool, but you still get to wait 29 more seconds.

A program running as a service can override the timeout in it's unit file.

>And finally, processes ignoring SIGTERM is really just one of the reasons why this happens.

Correct, processes who ignore SIGTERM are the real problem, processes that take a long time are a secondary culprit. But systemd can't do much if the devs of software refuse to read documentation on signals when writing handlers for them.
It's a bit disappointing to see other people showcasing their own work without a single mention of the link above. Perhaps make your own submission instead if that's the intention?

As a casual reader and others obvious interest in this area I'd very much prefer a sentence or two about the quality of the work presented, feel free to link your own stuff afterwards, it's a bit offputting to see such blatant self-promotion.

Agreed. Working democracy is not individual opinion poll.

In representative democracy voting in general elections is just small part of political activity. Surprisingly small amount of participation can have huge influence. Within political parties there are many influential positions where things are prepared and organized. When you get your say in the local chapter or some nationwide internal interest group, it really matters.

I joined a party in my country. While I participate very little I do it steadily. I have probably 5000x to 10000x more influence in politics than average voter who only votes. Maybe 3-5 times a year I vote online or go to meeting where representative are selected or agendas are set and vote for someone or propose someone to some position. I don't do any work myself. I just find out the people I want to do the work for me. I donate little bit or send a encouraging email to someone who I want to become more active.

Surprisingly small amount of grassroots political activity could completely change politics. It's just that people like to spend hours in the internet complaining about politics instead of taking part of it.
Good salary and modest needs basically.

So whenever I look at the balances on my cellphone and there is "too much" I flush it out to an investment a/c

Maybe you mean open source? None of what you describe is limited to free software.

If software is free, someone still has to sacrifice to keep it up to date. If you're not paying money for it, publishers will get money in other ways like advertisements, or selling your data.

Most apps cost less than the price of a single meal.

People that see value in something but refuse to pay even the tiniest amounts will always be a cultural amazement to me.
This is the answer. Who needs a large amount of cash if you’re computer (or phone) literate? Do all of your banking online and use something like CashApp for the rare person to person transfers.

I think it’s fear of the unknown for many.
Easy by what possible metric. Even if you did do this in someplace all you'd get is a bunch of pissed off locals who get rid of those ordinances. Any anti-wasteful packaging strategy would have to go after the businesses producing these products by hiking taxes on them. Which we could easily do in the US if we had something like a comprehensive tiered VAT instead of the nightmarish sales tax system we've got instead.

In my view, we should be building more effective landfilling infrastructure and stop telling people that putting their garbage in the yellow bin is somehow better or more moral or environmentally friendly. We have plenty of land that can be used to sequester waste, the issue here is people have been tricked for years into thinking that recycling is better or somehow good for the environment while ignoring the effects of energy intensive recycling plants and waste incineration because it's a feel good talking point.

Plastic you throw in the recycling either gets burned or sent somewhere it might be processed and apparently end up free in the environment. We should just be sticking it in the ground until we can enact policies to limit waste.
Jet engines overheating is something that can be proven scientifically, catastrophic climate change is not so acting as if it's been proven is what is dishonest.
People will always find a way around these rules. Any free social network is going to inevitably end up with groups using it for nefarious reasons. Banning hashtags seems like it’s attempting to attack a symptom of the problem rather than the problem itself, too.

Presumably they are doing this because of pressure from advertisers. I’m not sure why they care so much. I can somewhat understand why they care about YouTube, where their money (indirectly) goes to the creator making the content they disagree with, but on Instagram that isn’t the case.
What exactly is it I am denying. By all means? Please share.
Yup, I have. It would be nice if functional.christmas had a rss feed.
I've never heard of the skunk on a flagpole example (does the smell drop off according to the inverse square law), but surely this can be refuted by pointing out that the other examples are expressions of energy transmitted from a point source and the smell is directionally emitted from the skunks butt.
Working democracy is not solved only by voting. You have to discuss, negotiate, learn and organize with other people. You need political people who learn the things under consideration, and what other people think. How to get a compromise that satisfies most.

If you vote for X and 60% votes yes, 40% no, those 40% are unsatisfied. Ideally you want negotiate and get a solution where X+b gets more than 60% of the votes.
Yes, that's why I don't buy anything made in China (unless I have to).

I think an important thing to point out (besides the obvious fact that this is more beautiful visualization than it is simulation) that helps put our brain into perspective is that while this clearly seems very complex, it's only ~7000 neurons; the human brain has nearly _100 billion_. And that's not counting the glial cells, which may or may not be involved with signaling too.
Well, if you do this in France, you can get fired for "Faute Grave" ("It's your fault and it's bad"), in which case you get very reduced benefits or even in some cases "Faute Lourde" ("It's your fault and we're probably going to sue you for it"), in which case you get no benefits at all.

In 99% of circumstances, firing people is really not difficult in France (there are a few exceptions such as pregnant women, people who are on a long-term handicap leave or people who have been elected by workers as their spokespersons). Laying them off for economic reasons is a bit more complicated.
