It's also way easier to setup, and it covers all basic VPN needs for almost all home-VPN use cases.

I remember spending a whole day configuring OpenVPN, lots of packages, certificates, key files, no clue what half of the things I was doing were for. I also didn't particularly like the OpenVPN iOS client. Setting up WireGuard took less than an hour, every step of the process made sense, and it allowed me to remove a whole lot of cruft from my server.

I did this exact thing on my laptop once, and was very confused for about 5 minutes until I went to plug my Ethernet in.
That's right. Reasonable MiSTer setup will cost $150-$250.

Still a lot cheaper than top of the line AMD/Intel CPU. MiSTer's FPGA could probably beat hypothetical 10-50 GHz x86 CPU when absolute accuracy is desired.

Emulating something as simple as Famicom (NES) accurately can bring 4 GHz CPU on its knees, see for example https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnPC/comments/a5u7yn/what_....

That said, emulators on x86 hardware (or even RPi) can be very good and even have very low latency. They're also more convenient, because they can save whole system state and even support smooth rewind.
Painkillers do kill pain, but pain itself is rarely a problem. And as there are different kinds and causes of pain, as many types of painkillers exist. Pain is only a symptom, but better quality of life is often worth the side effects.

Likewise antiinflammatories, though sometimes inflammation itself is one - mostly autoimmune or to reduce damage when other treatment is curative.

Most drugs are in fact designed to work on their own, but are insufficient due to their laser focus, this the rest of body's mechanisms are required. Or they are directly messing with the chemistry doing either exactly as they should or otherwise known side effects due to relatively simple causation.

The about only place where it does not apply is carcinogenic or teratogenic effects.

Probably the only place where those remarks about "working with the body" apply is where we know next to nothing, such as psychiatry and very deep metabolic changes such as obesity.

Careful with analogies and broad generalizations.
Electron hate is an entry in the genre, "modern software is inefficient and bloated because devs are lazy"

This genre will never want for new entries because, devs will keep getting things done and critics will keep complaining.

Electron hate is a moral argument, "devs are wasteful." It's not a technical argument. People confuse their ability to conceive of software which has the same behavior as shipped software, but improves on arbitrary figures of merit, excepting "date of RTM."
"the systems won't even be around in 2020!"

And as it turned out in 2020 the system was still being used, but unlike in 2000, the source code was lost.
The bug is being publicly described as specific to the implementation of a particular class of cryptographic primitives (ECC). If that's accurate, simplifying the certificate data format (unnecessarily messy though it may be) wouldn't do much to mitigate this particular issue.

Yes. We went from something remediated by looking at the plug, to something that can’t be remediated without trying it and seeing if it fails.
This is my use case also. I have 14 O365/Azure dashes to wrangle and this is the only good way to do it.
Part of that November week was pretty nice weather. (There was also a lot of rain at least one day.) I agree that, if I saw any escooters, they certainly weren't out in any noteworthy numbers.

I do know one other city where there were lots of them when they were first introduced and six months later they seemed to be much less common.
Great job! I love the TG integration! It's so often about Slack and not about TG :-(
I'm completely fine with paying with my privacy. I feel like the vast majority of users prefers to look at ads compared to paying for content. Which matches reality where most people don't care if their browser blocks cookies or not.
Text files are king! I store every single byte I can in text files. Examples:

- Tabular data : TSV (almost all Un*x/GNU tools handle this out of the box)
- Simple "records" : GNU Recutils format (https://www.gnu.org/software/recutils/)
- Formatted texts : Markdown, LaTeX, ...
- ...

If I need some hierarchical kind of information, I use a folder structure to handle this.

I know that not everything can be stored as text. But I try to use open, well documented and future proof formats. Examples:

- Images : PNG
- Music : FLAC, Ogg, ...
- If I really need to preserve orignal format/design of a web page: PDF

Nothing's perfect but stay away from any closed/obscure/proprietary formats.

If the choice is between having a major restructuring which results in breaking compatibility and similar once, or kicking the can every 20 years with a minimal patch; I can certainly see the later being the rational decision.
Pretty much those, plus WhatsApp (distinct from Facebook), because I don't use Facebook, except as being tracked across the Web, but I'm using WhatsApp Desktop extensively, and wanted that separated.

I might add separate containers for separate Twitter accounts, because the multiple account UI on Twitter's web site is atrocious, IMO. I'm constantly "in the wrong account".

At work I set up a container for all the domains and servers my company uses versus everything else.

Yes, this is a thing we see over and over. With all this extra access to learning and advancements in fields, that previous generations didn't have, there's a bit of a gap in truly understanding the complexities of various fields. We see this attitude a lot that kind of assumes anyone who isn't digging ditches is playing dress up, and anyone could put on the outfit and do it.

That's why we have things like anti-vax, and people taking these incredibly simplistic views of complex fields. Assuming that anyone who puts on a lab coat can have the same valid medical understanding as the field that has been learning for hundreds of years and learned how to condense that down into a few years of school and an internship.

It's the same reason older generations think you can just show up on time and move to the top of your field, sure it helps, but catching up to the baseline of knowledge in a lot of fields is a huge gap, you don't just sweep the floor in a factory anymore and learn how to program the robots over serial port. There's a big jump there that didn't used to exist. (though I assume there was a similar gap in the industrial revolution when we started mechanizing work).

People can't even wrap their mind around real automation, they still assume it's going to be mechanization from the industrial revolution with computers. And there's so much else in this industry that people can't even understand that affects them in every day life situations.
All of the punishments you suggested and also any involved patents released to the public domain since the data wasn't.
For both auto safety and pharmaceutical safety there is a large degree of consumer information disparity, information unavailability, and disincentive for the individual to protect the public interest. It takes a lot of resources to test those products, and consumers don't really have the resources to do it themselves. In some cases, insurers could possibly foot the bill (eg. IIHS), but that model still has a couple of big weaknesses: consumers may not be informed enough to parse the results, consumers might prioritize short-term needs over public health, and an insurance body may still have some incentives working against public benefit.

Things like truck under-ride guards likely wouldn't be on commercial trucks if they weren't regulated. Consumers aren't going to all voluntarily coordinate to buy vehicles which have crash-compatible bumper heights. Antibiotic misuse would be even more out of control if it weren't regulated.

Mexico is a good example for road regulations. They do not have the same crash regulations as the US, and many old model vehicles are still legal for sale there. Things like the 1950's VW Beetle were still sold there into the 2000s. They have the highest death rate per distance traveled in the world.
Have you seen the Black Mirror episode with the Uber-esque tech company? The CEO is trying to placate a man in crisis over the phone. The CEO's support team starts feeding him via Slack de-escalation bullet points from their psychological experts. The man, bewildered and frustrated at the mechanical responses, stammers at him, "Why don't you talk like a normal fucking human being?!" The CEO then drops the "systematic" approach and talks to him like a person, from instinct, the heart, or whatever. Now you'll say that's a system too, but at some point the system is so riddled with exceptions that it becomes indistinguishable from chaos or intuition, and no longer is a useful system that can be described in any explicit way.
Sure. There are already efforts to create "Daleks" from human brain organoids.

There's not really a good server side way to do it unfortunately. All the current alternatives to my knowledge require js.

It depends on your application but the only real alternative is to use a js analytics library to collect the statistics. The good news is that they're more accurate, can give you more information, and there's plenty of self hosted options like Matomo.

But it is yet another thing the client as to load, and adblockers will likely skew your metrics.

I use Temporary Containers all day. Love this addon. This is fantastic not only for privacy/security for everyday use but also great for testing sites while doing development. It becomes really easy to be logged into all the different types of users in a website at the same time and see the interaction.
I’ve seen a few women directors/VPs of engineering, they do exist. And folks are quite used to woman managers.

The fundamental issue with this is it tells you about what's there when what you need to know is what's broken (not even necessarily what's missing).

>> Snooping ISPs, public IP, and geoblocking are not prevented by a VPN server in your home network, which the author does not warn about.

It helps for these things when abroad, e.g. when travelling I can stream Netflix content and live TV that are region-locked to where I live. Having the VPN on all the time while not on home WiFi also makes it impossible for sites/services to figure out when I'm moving around and where, and basically thwarts any attempt to derive where I am at any point in time.
Wouldn't those quirks be sufficient to fingerprint in the same way?
How do you measure that your route was indeed faster?
Transmutation technology is inherently more dangerous than simple uran fission plants due to the problem of proliferation. A lot of nasty stuff, e.g., weapon-grade Plutonium, be cooked up in these transmutation plants on demand, AFAIK.
No one gives a crap about your nude body. Still, you probably don’t shower in the open.
Furthermore, to the degree that people spending too much for housing is a problem in some places (like the Bay Area), I'd also suggest that's far more a function of land costs than it is granite countertops.
Very interesting. Do you have a sense of which businesses are working in digital twinning successfully?
Windows 7 reached EOL today so they may leave it as is if it is affected.
Well, yeah. Still, Rails is much slower than Phoenix by the mere fact that its templating and ORM facilities are extremely inefficient.

It's not that Ruby is 100x slower than Elixir (of course it's not). It's just that Rails is so inefficient compared to Phoenix.

Sinatra, Phoenix, Rocket.RS, and a ton of others are specially crafted to stay out of your way and utilise the CPU as less as possible. And yep, as we both agree, in these cases the 3rd party I/O is the bottleneck.
I don't know what the downvoters or the Parent think they're saying, but companies cannot produce "zines", by definition. Zines are produced by individuals. A company "zine" is a magazine, no matter how "cool" and lofi the layout.
I work in a company with over 40 years old and is incredible to see some very old software still functioning :), lots of orphaned projects that keep rocking forever.

Some engineers who have been in the company for decades usually say how a lot of our legacy codebase was cutting edge at one point and how a lot of their peers would have written it differently if they knew the software would still be in use decades to come. Safer, proven, simpler constructs with minimum dependencies seems to be the way.

How would you write your code today if you knew it would of been your last commit and still in use in 30 years ?

I vaguely remember reading about a y2k issue with some archived NASA data, discovered around 2006. Haven't been able to find a mention again, but this one stuck out as the article implied it wasn't just a timestamp, that it somehow affected the data and it had to be adjusted afterwards.

I _really_ enjoyed the first year of WoW. It was a childhood fantasy come true to explore the world I grew up with. The rest of the years it was just something I knew, a routine I was in, and where my social life was. Looking back, I really wish I walked away much sooner.
Security assurance isn’t necessarily cyber warfare. To have the high ground is not the same as using it offensively, hence the expectation of defensive posture as part of the NSA’s mission (although admittedly some offensive activities are to be expected, depending on the situation, such as Stuxnet and Iran).
After doing this for 25 years, I always say "you never get good at estimating, you just get less shitty at it"..

Lots of people don't like that statement, but I stand by it..

I eventually stopped trying to estimate time required to deliver a specific thing, and instead started working backwards and seeing what can be done in the time we have.

It's still estimating, but it's somehow a bit easier, especially if you're willing/able to re-evaluate along the way.

I know that's basically Agile but I removed all the ritualistic BS. ;-)
>When they feel like, most of the time however they hold back vunerablities so they can exploit them for their own purposes.

You have no idea if that's true or not. It's probably true, but neither of us have the information required to assert our opinions on the matter as fact.
Firefox Multi-Account contains are awesome for software development and testing! At my work we usually work at tools which have three roles: user, reviewer, administrator so I generally have three containers for these user accounts. This means I can be logged in with all the accounts I need for testing in the same web browser without resorting to private mode (which does not remember cookies between sessions anyway).

In addition, I use the temporary container add-on[0] which also uses containers, but throws them away after being used (like reference counting).

These two tools have seriously improved my ability to both develop and test applications without the hassle of logging out and logging in all the time or needing any tricks when needing multiple clean browsing sessions.

Great article. It explains a lot of the psychological appeal of old school, Unix-y software. That sense that no one can take functionality from you, or from your own ability to extend what already exists.
It is supported by most mail servers, I guess, and at some time nerds all over the world were heavily promoting this scheme.

I know someone who constantly complained that web site X or company Y are stupid, because they don't follow the RFCs, don't know the syntax of mail addresses, because mail validation in web forms often rejected anything with a plus sign.

The correct answer would have been "don't do it then" or maybe "how about configuring your Exim so that instead of '+' you're using '-' as a separator, but I suppose the complaining was a big part of the fun.
I should note, I'm not particularly concerned with performance. We already have fairly optimized DB code, views, sprocs, indexes etc. This layer is currently sufficient for our needs. So ideally, we would still continue to leverage the SQL-Server. What we need, is to extract business logic from the DB, into application code which is testable. All of this processing is 'batch', we also have options for deploying (Azure, PCF) which can handle issues of scale. I'm more concerned with getting it right, than making it fast. I'm not very experienced with C#, but have experience with Java/Spring web development, and have yet to find any frameworks that allow for rapid development akin to flask or rails. Java/Kotlin is great for back-end dev with spring-boot, but full-stack... not so much. Also, I don't want to manage the complexities of any front-end JS framework-du-jour. I know React, Angular and some Vue. I'm very much of the YAGNI philosophy when it comes to front-end (at least for Enterprise apps). PyPy is a viable option, as I don't see any immediate need to call into C (although this assumption is likely to come back to bite me).
Someone made it a requirement. Using Microsoft software isn’t some universal law of nature.

This a really useful extension for working with multiple cloud service accounts (e.g. AWS assumes a global session, GCP theoretically supports multiple logins but it's in the usual Google NOQA zone where many things break) but there's a really important limitation to know about: the container configuration isn't synchronized with your account. This means that if anything reset your Firefox profile (like that bug they had last year) or if you use multiple computers, you'll be spending a lot of time duplicating the configuration:

FWIW, control system theory resolves similarly. The response of a system (whether electrical, mechanical...) has the same basic concepts related to the energy of constituents defined by the differential equation of that system.

For example, specific systems have fairly well understood corollaries like a compressed fluid behaving as a mechanical spring within a system. Further, mass is akin to capacitor (stores energy), a spring is akin to inductor (stores energy), a damper is akin to a resistor (dissipates energy) in terms of their representation on the differential equation of their response. You might find some control theory an interesting read but I don't know if it speaks to exactly what you're looking for in terms of the broadest applicability.
I still prefer USB-A fitting on the third try over USB-C, which may fit on the first try, but then mysteriously fails to work properly half of the time due to factors like badly designed cables or worn solder joints on some of the "reversible" pins.
