>The elephant in the room is that many networks need to have content filtering

First of all, we're talking about domain filtering, not content filtering.

And no, they want domain filtering, hardly anybody needs it, and there are better solutions than NXDOMAIN, such as actual content filters.

Why would I need to provide "something useful"? mozilla already described the many ways this can be disabled, from browser preferences, to automated checks for known disable-me domains, etc.

It feels like they are going the traditional bank route, give away a basic product and charge fees for everything over a threshold.

Looking at their business pricing page, it looks like they are going to get into commercial lending, which could prove profitable. I don't know if it is VC-scale, though.

Most big, successful banks that have withstood the test of time have grown VERY slowly over nearly 200 years and acquired a lot of local banks along the way.

I don't recall all of the numbers but my brother (a small-town-bank vp) told me not that long ago that most small town banks will profit between $1M and $5M per year (5-10% return on equity). A small bank will usually have a few thousand customers.

So if Revolut has 10M customers (2000x bigger than a small town bank), and the customers are using Revolut like they would their small town banks, they should be profitable at some point.
I’m guessing the magic layout things are intentional because SwiftUI is designed to make it easy to have one app feel native on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and AppleTV, which all have their own design language and ergonomics.

As long as it provides ways to override defaults and take full control where needed, this seems reasonable. I’m guessing you can drop a Metal view into your SwiftUI app, so quit complaining :)

The BIOS should have a reset option for the case open switch. It's just a warning you toggle off in the BIOS. The idea is that only a tech would know the BIOS password to turn it off, so that's how you know that someone knows about it.

It's also unusual that discharging the CMOS removed the boot password. It shouldn't do that. I also worked on similar desktops (they were IBM desktops from before they were spun off) and they didn't have this problem that I can recall. Very few systems had boot passwords, however.

I'm certain that the BIOS passwords didn't clear this way, however, because we had a few systems that had old passwords that nobody knew. Instead, we had a copy of the tech software used to program the BIOS. You had to boot that program and use it to clear the password. HP had a similar program, but that stopped working around 2010 when the computers started to ship with a TPM and you could no longer just clear the content.

I agree with you: your local network is free to set up a resolver using DoH (or DoT, which is far more sane than an entire HTTPS connexion). That's the correct place for it to live, or possibly at the individual device level.

It is 100% not the place of an application to meddle with network services, particularly not by default.

To be fair, one ending in a 5 is an AMD, which has had considerably worse battery life than Intel for a decade, and is also probably somewhat to blame for suspend/sleep bugs. It might be hard to discern if you have ThinkPad issues or AMD issues, and I would not coorelate your AMD issues back to Intel ThinkPads. Battery life should have been a known expectation going into buying one.
> MIDI 2.0 delivers more nuanced expressiveness for electronic instruments. It’s now possible to convey the same kind of subtle expression normally associated with acoustic instruments, thanks to higher-resolution dynamics and control data, vastly extended controller options (including per-note controllers for exceptional articulation), and simplified controller assignments.

This could be a musical revolution in the making, some 10-20 years from now. Huge, huge implications for the entire industry and craftmanship of "instruments". At the bottom of the market, this could be the proverbial end of the 'cheap' analog stuff for the masses, a world of fantastically sounding budget intruments). At the state of the art, a whole new category of instruments with potentially crazy original software-defined features.

MIDI 2.0 would have been sci-fi not so long ago. It's fantastic that we are here.
There is an actual research on this. More than 90% of alexa's top 1 million websites (more like 95% or so) are uniquely identifiable just by IP addresses you connect to when you visit them. This is not a single IP address per website, but multiple, because websites include subresources with other IP addresses to connect to.

On top of that, there is a pressure on CDNs and clouds to make websites stick to specific IP addresses and make them blockable by IP addresses without affecting other customers. So far they have proven to not go against this pressure and even made technical solutions to aid governments to identify websites by IP addresses, in particular by fixing L7 routing layer to block domain fronting (which is important, because ESNI is basically domain fronting, but crappy, and the pressure didn't go anywhere, so there is the same pressure to make sure ESNI doesn't interfere with identification of websites you are visiting).

I think it's because the US tech companies have been far more successful in the the global technology industry than other countries which has led to higher profits which has led to increased salaries.

Because AWS is not just server hosting company.
That is a good point, but it is also mostly independent from DoH, a VPN with an hardcoded IP would have worked in the same way (if you look into elusive VPNs you can also find some that work by injecting traffic into padding of another connection).

The only difference is if you are worrying about the traffic leaving your own browser and in that case you can just not enable DoH

> DNS is the primary way governments control and spy on web access.

And DoH will enable every device you own to continue spying on you for the benefit of corporations.

DNS is the last bastion of preventing devices I can't sufficiently control from spying on me. I use DNS filtering to block their tracking domains. I use my firewall to prevent devices from accessing DNS resolvers I don't control.

DoH takes those options away from me. Ridiculously, in the name of privacy. Ha!

Unfortunately, the battle was lost the moment someone created a DoH implementation. It hardly matters what the browsers do. All the other things I don't want to have DoH will eventually implement it. And they won't respect use-application-dns.net or whatever other frameworks Mozilla comes up with for controlling DoH at the network level.

(Also, does anyone really believe that governments, ISPs, and public DNS resolvers aren't going to disable DoH with use-application-dns.net? I'm sure whomever came up with DoH in the first place had great intentions but the end result is a disaster that will cause more harm than benefit)

Bottom of the infographic appears to contain a new Firefox logo. Looking at their website, it appears this is actually the logo for the larger (and somewhat confusingly named) Firefox suite of products, to distinguish them from the Firefox browser. Which is nice I guess, but what most people see is the browser icon, and this logo would be far preferable to the current one in that capacity.

Excuse my Erlang ignorance.

When he sends the "{become, F}" message, and F is a function pointer or closure, how is that dispatched across a network? Do the code definitions need to be present remotely too? If so, I'm not sure that quite qualifies as a "universal" server, only a server for locally defined functions. Still cool though.

BTW, I've used a similar technique to create a pool of worker goroutines in Golang. Had good performance from it too.

Prague Trip Report
Torrents are hard to find and use and require a PC. Not to mention illegal . Ask those red boxers if they also have Netflix.
Thanks. Not to be argumentative, but I find it odd/interesting that guests connecting to my WiFi and using my DNS set up makes me a "malicious network operator" in your eyes. That's a very odd view of the world in my opinion, as it is my WiFi and DNS set up.

That's like saying that me stopping guests taking photos of my daily activities (showering, using the toilet) whilst in my house is a malicious behaviour too. I suppose I should let them post the photos off to whomever they choose?

If someone is in my house and using my WiFi, I don't want their device looking up domains that I choose to block. How do I know that their device is not recording its surroundings and sending them off to the said domain? How do I know that my guest is not up to nefarious/illegal activity using domains that I have blocked? I would be the one prosecuted due to the IP address = a person approach by the law in most circumstances (should they ever deduce the requested domains from the DoH set up). Being that the DoH provider is under law, I am pretty sure that the DoH will have to hand over any records they have, which will lead it back to me and my network.

And then once again we are stuck in a situation where I cannot control what domains are being looked up by devices and applications on my network. My devices are no longer mine. I have handed off control to some company the other side of the planet with employees I will never meet.

How do I stop the 5+ tracking domains that the Instagram app uses on my wife's iPhone, for example? Am I a malicious network operator for stopping that garbage being sent off?
I had this issue in the simulator but on my phone it seems fine. Not ideal obviously but it does work, I released a simple app with it earlier this year.

Any exposure, intentional or accidental, of PII to a non-authorised person is a GDPR violation. An email address is PII as it's unique to that person.

Consider the Ashley Madison breach - there were websites that let you search for an email address and see if it was included. Even without the name or address of the person it was sufficient PII to cause damages (however 'deserved').
Chrome uses opportunistic DoT - it uses your system configured resolver, and if it supports DoT, it will use DoT, if not, it will fall back to 53/udp.

I like Chrome's approach much better; it doesn't force you to statically configure DNS server - it is a PITA, especially when roamining and you want to resolve hostnames available only in local networks.

The problem is that, used properly, IOMMUs are horribly expensive.

Consider a NIC driver where you're mapping an outgoing packet for DMA. What used to essentially be a virtual to physical translation becomes a virt to phys + entering the phys in the iommu + removing the mapping when the transmit is complete. This is expensive for hardware and software reasons. At one point I benchmarked a 100g setup on linux, and with the IOMMU enabled, we lost about 90% of the bandwidth and most of the CPU time was spent in lock contention over the red-black tree that managed the IOMMU tables. This was 5-ish years ago, so perhaps things have gotten better.

So that makes people want to just enable the IOMMU for SR-IOV (and full device) pass-thru to VMs. This is cheaper, since you just set the mapping up when you allocate phys mem for the guest, and tear them down when freeing phys mem.

MacOS used to use a really cool trick where they pre-mapped all mbufs into the IOMMU. That made network traffic transmit and receive comparatively fast. However,it also prevented lots of optimizations that modern operating systems use for zero-copy IO (like attaching pages from sendfile directly to mbufs, similer to skb_frags).

He much more frequently cites his own articles than external ones, and when he does cite external ones, they're either news articles from journalists, or in the narrow case when they are published papers, they're from a field he knows well (psychiatry, for which I'd be happy to give him a pass). The point is not only whether he does it, but the degree to which he makes an honest point and engages with the surrounding literature. In his article on Marx, he only reads Marx through a philosopher who is absolutely not renowned for his expertise on Marxology, Peter Singer. Does that count as a citation? I suppose so. Is it an honest attempt to engage with the discussion around the topic? Not really.

I was getting at the idea that Scott likes to invent concepts that already have some standing, if in a slightly different form and terminology, already present in the literature. He does not build upon that work, or cite it. I'm never one to argue against novelty, but for a reader introduced to these concepts, some due diligence should be made to see what already exists out there. Arguing against a "popular view", as if it is the forefront of debate on the topic (which he does, if he discusses the topic in the formal sense), is just as silly as an amateur physicist who believes the scientific community is localized entirely in pop-sci books and Twitter.
