Why do governments fail to take advantage of this opportunity to inject money into their economy? Didn't Trump promise to bring the manufacturing jobs back? How is he going to achieve that if he's not going to rebuild the current power infrastructure or discourages companies from investing into the lucrative EV market?

I'm seriously wondering why there is any reason to oppose technological progress at all. What can they possibly gain by sticking to the old technology? Who's going to benefit from something so short sighted?

Youtube has it's own system outside of the DMCA to handle copyright claims in which the claimant has all the power. If the poster of a video wants to appeal a copyright claim, they appeal directly to the claimant who gets to decide. You can then appeal to YT directly (good luck with that) but in the meantime the claimant can issue a "strike" on your account. 3 strikes and you are out. So instead of fighting claims, posters are encouraged to just roll with the punches and be glad they get any money. Youtubers at this point will openly say "I'd show a clip but then I won't make money on this video" even when that clip would 100% be fair-use.

Youtube designed this system after pressure from the major Movie / Music publishers to either give them stronger tools than the DMCA provides or face a blackout from these major publishers. They wanted final control over their IP on Youtube and they got it, damn the law. If they had to file real DMCA claims, these claims on obviously fair-use materials would disappear.

> and then use a hardcoded key to encrypt them

Ask this question instead: Why bother to encrypt them in the first place?

What is the attack scenario you are trying to defend against? This is local software - it need to be able to decrypt the key and use it to login.

So at the end of the day it's the same machine with the password and the key to decrypt the password. It seems pretty pointless to even encrypt them in the first place.

So why do it? I don't know, maybe just to make it marginally harder to see the password. If that's the entire goal, there isn't really any reason no to use a hardcoded key - it accomplishes that goal just fine.

Ask yourself this: What attack scenario would a different key per machine defend against that a hardcoded key would not?
As an iMac user for years, I've lately considered the idea of either a hackintosh or just giving up on MacOS completely.

I'm ready to upgrade to a new Apple desktop, and none of the options are even remotely enticing for the amount of money they require.

I just don't like the state of things anymore and 99.9% of what I do doesn't need MacOS. Though there is some investment into the ecosystem that will hurt a bit.

California 911 - the fact that your phone is from NY is not only ignored but never referenced in the process - this isn't a great analogy but you could think of your cellphone as having a built-in walkie-talkie that it uses for emergency calls. All the mechanisms for making a normal phone call are discarded when you dial an emergency number. So, nowhere on the state diagram of making an emergency phone call, is the box that says "Tell the user to dial 1 before a long distance number" - they are two separate systems.

That's a great start.

But in a non-technical organisation, who should those messages go to?

Often the initial LetsEncrypt setup will be handled, correctly, by some IT staff.
Then it might break several months or years later for some odd reason.

The organisational challenge is to get the message through to someone who understands it and will act on it.
Energy consumption increases, but charging stations are ubiquitous and economic incentives plentiful in Norway. Geographic areas with colder climates frequently have block heater power available; similarly you want power available for "shore power" to keep the battery charging and conditioned when it's exceptionally cold.

Norway's electrical generation is almost 100% renewable, so the additional energy consumption is a moot point. EVs also make an excellent sink of power in aggregate ("controllable distributed load") for renewable generation that might have had to be curtailed and wasted.
It could be a freebie offered by cloud providers. Maybe MS should do this and eat its own dog food.

Not really, because the returns and losses are asymmetric. If you lose, you lose maybe a million bucks of your own money, probably less. But if you win, you could be a billionaire.

"Today, Kaoru Akagawa uses Kana, a mostly forgotten script traditionally used by Japanese women, in her art"

"Yet as the centuries passed, and the authorities began culling what they saw as superfluous letters, over 90% of Kana characters were lost. When Akagawa started investigating the script, she remembers, “no one had heard” of Kana."

Kana is alive and well in the Japanese language, as it refers to the Japanese syllabaries, Hiragana and Katakana.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kana

What I think the article means is "Hentaigana", Hiragana variations that fell out of favor during the Meiji era.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hentaigana

As all Hiragana, they are based on the cursive Kanji (Chinese Characters). One can easilly find books about cursive forms of Kanji and Kana-only caligraphy books even here in Brazil. So I found the "no one had heard of Kana" part a bit off, even if refering to actually Hentaigana/old Kana. Whole Kana-only books where printed in the Edo era, often with the same connected style of Kaoru Akagawa, with Hentaigana and all:
https://pulverer.si.edu/sites/default/files/styles/essay_lar...
https://pulverer.si.edu/sites/default/files/styles/essay_lar...

So anyone with some knowledge of Japanese History would have heard of them, specially in Japan. The wikipedia article even points out they are still used in signs for an archaic feel.
Reading and writting them would indeed be relativelly rare, as cursive Kanji is, but the "no one had heard of Kana" (sic) part sounds very unlikely to me.
Content ID plus an unsophisticated overworked "manual review" step may as well just be considered automated from a high level view.

The normal thing to do here is to use the credential just once to generate a (revocable) token, and to store that (reversibly encrypted). Especially if you own both sides of the connection, it is in fact a bad idea to store user passwords; they're irrevocable and inevitably shared across services.

As security advice for developers, the writeup you're commenting about isn't especially useful. But that's not the point. It's a standard consulting war story post, about how they managed step-by-step to exploit a weakness in an application. As a war story, it seems plenty competent.

I'm a backend developer looking for remote contracting work. (Part-time ideally, but open to full-time positions.)

I'm experienced working remotely for big companies, early-stage startups, and everything in between.

Sounds like a good fit? Let's talk!
For sure it's not a letsencrypt problem.

But as a person who rolls LE certs across a very non-happy-path environment (many SAN domains, edge nodes which are geo-balanced).

I have a lot of issues automating this process, right now I have a HTTPd which reverse proxies the .well-known back to a central place where I run certbot and then I push out the cert to the nodes, however, sometimes one of our SAN domains will need to be removed and the whole universe comes crashing down.

DNS-01 Challenge is "nice" (although, doesn't feel super well supported); but requires domains registered with some kind of DNS server that accepts API's to change records, so Amazon route53- but it's exceptionally hard to roll your own DNS in this case. :\

Ultimately I think the YT process leaves the door open for legal action by the creator against the claimant.

Presumably most don't bother, because these are big big companies. They can feel secure in their bad faith claims, auto-rejection of appeals, and general abuse of the system to garnish monetization proceeds.
>If this situation didn't exist it would put yet more pressure on massive landlocked urban centers to support everyone converging on them and make them the only locales that could support major businesses.

The fantasy of the 'strong towns' movement.
I agree with your arguments.. however the unanswered question is why the passwords need to be stored locally at all?

The passwords are saved to your Teamviewer profile which exists on their servers. It seems like it would be safer to request and decrypt only when needed by an authorized user, rather than storing it for someone else to find.
As your quote says, those APIs aren't available in SC anyway, so that's irrelevant.

The next paragraph is also interesting, though, since it is an argument against depending on system libraries:

> The second covers the software distribution model. In order to make it easier for developers to update Swift Crypto when they are using it on non-Apple platforms, we took advantage of the Swift Package Manager to distribute Swift Crypto. This allows users to pull in security fixes and API updates via simple swift package update.
Does ssl.get_server_certificate handle sni?

Also, no need for python:

Why is it needed or your job?

You work in an industry whose entire purpose is to automate such things.
In Java, you can obtain a throwing version of anything returning an Optional type:

Optional<Womp> getWomp() {...}

Womp womp = getWomp().orElseThrow();
The same thing here in Brasil since 2002.
The only difference that there is an artificial restriction that online transfer between banks outside of banking hours will only clear when the banks open again. Other than that most transfer between banks clear in seconds and can be made from your phone.
This artificial restriction is probably going to be lifted this year.
And of course, if seller and buyer have accounts in the same bank, there's no business hours requirement, it will clear in seconds not matter what the time of the day.
Also, depending on the american bank, I usually am able to cash wire transfers coming from the US in the same day, if the american bank sent the wire during brazilian business hours.
Everytime I deal with the American banking system I get appaled by its primitiveness. ACH is basically how banking technology worked on the early 90's in Brasil.

That is like to work in first generation C.

But the viewpoint cause massive damage: Pascal get a reputation based in the first version with a limited scope, despite have very good points at his favor.

In a modern example, is like dismiss GO because lack of generics and verbose error handling, and consider C better for some OTHER reasons, that is what actually happened with pascal and other langs.

ie: Happens ofter that some critize lang/tool for X (could be truth) ignore Y (that is a good point) and still choose Z (for other reasons).

You can file a counter claim through Youtube: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2807684?hl=en

Generally this should be done under advice of an attorney, because these counter notices set a ticking clock of ten business days during which the copyright holder must either sue the Youtuber for copyright infringement or the complaint will be cancelled. Not all Youtube claims related to copyright are counter claimable. There is a tendency among people to misjudge their actual risk and whether or not they infringed, so it is unwise to file these counter claims without advice from an attorney.

You can also file in your local jurisdiction for declaratory judgment if you receive a formal cease and desist notice, and if that C&D contains false claims then the plaintiff may be in trouble. A truly false and malicious DMCA claim can be countered with a defamation lawsuit as well.

You can also sue someone for any reason ("It's Tuesday! I hate you! I'm suing you!") at any time, but that doesn't mean that you will win.

Using short clips of the trailer for review purposes is clearly fair use. Often times, however, Youtubers think fair use protects them more than it actually does and do go overboard such as taking entire TV episodes and commenting over them. However different judges have seen the issue differently in different situations. So, if you really did infringe, but think you didn't, and file the counter claim, you are doomed, and copyright law is very generous to victorious plaintiffs.
