PGP's "Web of trust" doesn't actually scale and so it doesn't meaningfully improve upon just doing out-of-band verification with a handful of your closest peers and nothing for everybody else.

Web of trust can give an illusion of scaling because it uses sleight of hand to persuade you to accept transitivity of trust. If you see someone who took this seriously you'll find that almost all contacts show as "unverified" (when I've had PGP setups in the past that's what happened). If they just click blindly along accepting trust transitivity then everything is "verified" but based on trust beliefs that have no basis in reality.

The sleight of hand goes like this. You trust Alice. Alice says this is Bob and she trusts Bob. The correct inference is that this is indeed Bob (Alice says so and we trust her) but we still don't trust Bob. PGP tries hard to persuade you that you in fact now trust Bob. Bob says another contact is Carol, and he trusts Carol. The correct inference is null, we don't trust Bob so we don't care what Bob says. But PGP encourages us to accept that this is Carol and we should trust Carol too.

If you just keep 10 hour days, then each metric second is .84 of a standard second. Pretty nice.

However, we'd no longer have the nice 1:10 ratio between seconds and human alpha waves...
good points, though I'm a bit bothered with your second point here.

First of all, I think calling this a single event is reductionist. We're talking about weeks- months, even- of experts and non experts warning about this, and the systems of authorities failed completely to react in time. We're not talking about failing to heed an important warning once, we're talking about a long string of choices here.

Secondly, This isn't just a prominent case, it is a very important case. Treating this as a series of bernoulli trials with a single (statistically irrelevant) failure is an extremely reductionist model of the reality here.

While your conclusion of trusting science, empirical facts and analysis rings true to me, I think we should be wary of overly simplifying the subject matter.

There's a pandemic and they're not giving masks and gloves to their workers, which has already caused a number of them to be hospitalized. That's why they're organizing.

Instead of giving them safety gear, they've fired the lead organizer.

They only reason they have any of the rights and conditions you described in the first place is because of organization and agitation, not their generosity.

The end result of letting authoritarian capitalism into the global marketplace can be seen in the conditions of Amazon warehouses in the United States. I'm certainly not the only person to say this, their own employees do as well. Hint - that's why they're organizing.[1]

BUT - more to the point - why post this? Are you an Amazon employee as well? If not - why? I just can't fathom in a situation like this why you'd feel the need to list - from memory? - all of the employee benefits that Amazon provides to its warehouse workers.

> I suspect the definition of 'unauthorized access' will need to be more clearly defined

I've been saying this for years! For reasons unrelated to TOS rulings, too.

A little bit of background...

In 2011, I was charged with unauthorized access to a protected computer. The website in question (Infragard Tampa Bay, run by the FBI through a company called Sylint) was running an older version of DotNetNuke that had a 2008 vulnerability.

The nature of the vulnerability was as follows: If you accessed a specific URL which required no authorization, you could upload files to the server and presumably execute them. (I say presumably, because I didn't.)

I wanted to fight the charge because I never exceeded "authorized access" by using a publicly accessible web form on the public Internet, and the CFAA's terms were vague.

* The website was publicly accessible, without needing authorization

* The file upload form was publicly accessible, without needing authorization

* The folder that files were uploaded to was publicly accessible, without needing authorization

* All of my conduct was authorized by the software they ran on the public Internet, and therefore the unauthorized access I was accused of never actually occurred

My overworked public defender didn't have any fight in him. The EFF wouldn't help either (the person I talked to didn't see the significance of this CFAA ambiguity for civil rights). I grew up in a poor family and couldn't afford legal counsel, so I ended up pleading guilty, which has totally fucked my life up ever since. (It really doesn't get better, even 8-9 years later.)

> since I know many cases in the past relied around users doing shit that was unauthorized by the TOS.

Good. I hope this becomes a precedent that frustrates prosecutors and helps defense cases in appeals court.
40 years ago was the home computer revolution. A lot of computers did not work like that. They had things like segmentation, zero pages, workspace register files, shadow registers, BCD arithmetic, and software interrupts. A few years later they had things like heterogeneous multiple processors, PAD, and trap/interrupt gates.

The big iron of the time (and a few years later) had some things that did not work like C, too, such as single-level storage addressing, tagged architectures, and capability-based addressing.

Thinking that the C language is a representative model for computer history, or indeed for computer architecture, is a bad way of thinking of this. During the 1980s and 1990s there was a lot of shoehorning all of that architectural stuff into C compilers, with extra keywords and the like. (e.g. __interrupt, _Far, _Huge, __based, _Decimal, _Packed, digitsof, precisionof, and so forth)

>> I was brought up to work diligently, not take on debt, and save

It absolutely will put you at a huge disadvantage, through no fault of your own. The whole point is to transfer money from savers to debtors.

And, there's no getting away from it, unless you take on large risks. The govt is pushing for more and more inflation. We've already had high inflation for the last couple of years of over 2%, and they're still pushing for more inflation. The only way to protect your money is to get into real assets like real estate and equities. Yes, that entails a lot of risk.

Another "IDE" written in some sort ofJavascript? Yeah, good luck with performance.
Sure, I do. I am just hooking linux kernel calls, I will never take JS for this. Pure C. Valgrind? I have a header with #define MALLOC/FREE/REALLOC/... which returns larger buffer with guards at beginning and the end while after 25 years of C I hardly do anything more problematic that this. But seriously, would you give JS developer making kernel module? Ruby? PHP? No. So I wont compare with them and I would expect they would stop comparing to C. It is not the same task they are made for. I am sick of constant moaning about who is faster and who is better and who is cutter,...

System language? Make it. I dont care, if it will work better than C for the task, I will take it. If it is just a newage nonsense wasting resources for the sake of deallocating and taking care about buffer boundaries as it is so hard to take care and track your memory I will skip it. I dont care if I take a hammer or brick for using a nail, I will use what works best and my requirement is that I dont need 20 people to hammer in one nail for the sake of no one getting hurt due to putting its finger between hammer and nail. Someone would rather have a safety inspection. Also a fine decision as far as I care. Not my choice but I couldnt care less.

Anyway, kids, downvoting me to censor what you cant handle, I am over 40 years old, developing for my whole my life. I have seen hypes, new "revolutionary" ideas, repacking old technologies as new, stealing ideas (I see this lately 24/7) at least 20 new "revolutionary" languages, cpus, mainframes, clouds, any possible way of another human trying to rip you off (google, fb,...), lies, deceit, preaching, evangelism,... Do you really think I will care about it? It is just sorry truth that you will have fun of enjoying kernels written in JS on a browser, on a linux kernel that no one develops any more. Have you seen movie Idiocracy? You really should. I cant wait for it to happen. And then will I ask you if you are sorry, that 20 years back you didnt rather decide to learn instead of copy/pasting and spitting over everything you are unable to handle. (your parent should told you that, but they didnt, I am sorry)

saagarjha: sure, ignore the part about censoring, that is not part of debate. About everything else. You get used to it in a same manner as using floats in js. But this is my expirience. It is completely ok, to have different one. Some people are memorizing decks of cards, i consider that something difficult. They probably dont. They have learned to do it. And I am so sorry if dont feel like I need to prove it to you. Anyway, thank you for the cycript.org link, the only problem is that i cant use userspace solution, but it might come handy some day.
I don't understand why we don't just lock screens by switching to a different virtual terminal running a different X server. If the lock screen doesn't share an X server with the user session, a lot less information can leak. This entirely-separate-session approach is what Windows uses, and it works great there.

> Be knowledgeable about what’s actually in the C and C++ standards

... turns out to be an extremely tall order; the 2017-11-17 working draft of the C++ standard is 1,448 pages in PDF format.

At some point, I wonder when programmers who are required to care about correctness throw up their hands and say "This language isn't reasonably human-sized for a user to know they're using it correctly." At which point the immediate next question should be "Why don't you use something else?"

(In my experience, the only sane counter-answer to that last question is "I'm programming on an architecture where the {C/C++} compiler is the only one with any real expressive power that anyone has ported to this physical system." This is an answer I understand; most other answers will raise an eyebrow from me).
It's good on phones because it allows them to become multi-tools. You can't have physical buttons for every thing any app might want to do; with a touch screen they can make their own buttons.

On cars it's silly. Cars are not multi-tools; they have a finite set of dedicated functions. Even for functions that benefit from a large high-res screen (maps, music library browsing, etc.), the actual input requirements are narrow enough to work with physical controls. Just look at the original iPod.

Sure, there are legit weaknesses & criticisms you face, including:

- How can you make such cold and absurd calculations, comparing lives to money?

- Your models are simplistic and wrong!

- There's huge uncertainty in your parameter values!

But in cases like this, our choices (or inaction) DO trade lives vs. dollars. If you don't attempt to construct a model, it doesn't mean you aren't making a choice. You are just making it relatively more blind.

True, but to provide reliable commuting you pretty much have to fly IFR, especially in a place like SF Bay or LA. This is because often marine layer clouds don't clear until 10am and people want to be at work long before then.

It may be possible to do a lot more to improve the availability of IFR approaches and routes if we factor in automated systems. It's going to take a lot longer to build more airports, but I can tell you that pretty much every airport manager in the United States will be thrilled to face that problem.
Macs have a fairly large share of devs, especially in the startup centers like SF and NYC.

Some cars already do. My car has buttons on the steering wheel which allow you to navigate menus, control the radio, etc. As well as paddles to control over functions. The problem is if you are not on a straight road those controls become virtually impossible to use safely. Whereas if I quickly need to change the volume or even mute the radio I can do so one handed without even glancing at the volume dial on the radio and still steer the car safely.
I'm curious who the target demographic is for this, people who think they need bare metal performance in a language that gives them access to bare pointers, know that most humans aren't capable of following Uncle Ben's adage[1], and then voluntarily give it up while insisting they need it?

I think almost any JITed memory safe language will be faster than using handles for all object access. At least Java, .NET, JS, etc under the hood can avoid "double dispatch" of memory access. And you can use things like arenas to ensure same objects are allocated adjacently, etc.
