Like the EFF cares about free speech. Like they have showed up even once to campuses across the nation to defend the Constitutional rights of their ideological opponents.

Everyone knows the EFF and the ACLU are thinly camoflaged shells of their former selves, tactically pushing for whatever will advance their quest for power. Yeah, we know that if we want help defending our Constitutional rights, we go to non-psychopathic organzations like FIRE and Judical Watch and Project Veritas.

They defend strong encryption because it's a tool their side still needs, for now. Defending the Constitution and free speech is just a temporary tactic for them until they get more power, the sort of power they now wield openly on campuses across this nation and which you use to silence anyone who disagrees with them.

After that, they'll start talking about how old the Constitution is, how its from another, quainter time, and how it needs now to be put aside.... and how important it is the government oversee people's speech lest someone utter hatespeak .....and consequently we must ban strong encryption.

Or, in their own words:

This virus is a strange one. Apparently there's no single symptom that affects even a small majority of the infected patients. That's a strange, unusual problem to handle for a system that assumes that illnesses make people ill.

A hospital is self-selecting, in that it doesn't have 50% patients that feel well and show no symptoms. The people who work at a hospital take the precautions that are considered appropriate for the disease they've diagnosed. This means that to some degree, they're not ambushed by asymptomatic infected people.

The server does not have to decrypt or process the video, it can just send the same encrypted video to other clients (or you can use p2p communication without a server involved).

There may be advantages to processing video at the server, but it's definitely not a hard requirement.

Nebulo is very much a work-in-progress, but its reached proof-of-concept viability so I'd love to hear what the community thinks!

At the moment, the motivation for the CLI is mostly to give quick feedback to people who want to try out the project. I'm curious if anyone has a use-case the CLI running a production ready web server?

In the short-term I expect to focus query safety and the last remaining elements of the relay connection spec (reverse pagination) that aren't implemented yet.

Hi. I made prouptime because my wife runs multiple wordpress blogs and I wanted to quickly add some server monitoring for her. Since I didn't want to make her sign up for yet another service where she needs to remember login data and update her sites, I made my own service that functions as a wordpress plugin.

You simply install the prouptime plugin in wordpress and confirm on the plugin admin page. No need to create an account, enter user data or remember passwords. Your email & url is updated in wordpress settings.

Please give me your feedback!

The magic that was going to protect Europe from the virus was the same magic that protected Europe from SARS: The good weather.

If you delay it enough, whatever virus affects North of Asia in Winter does not affect Europe in Winter but in Spring or Summer.

Specially in places like the South of Spain or Italy, it is hot and extremely sunny most of the Summer, with probably 4 or 5 cloudy days in the 90 days of Summer.

That kills the spread of viruses and viruses themselves.

That hope made politicians complacent. In Japan they are used to natural disasters and as society they are always prepared.

South Korea is prepared because of SARS history and because as a neighbor you should always be prepared against China monster(in population density).
Good. Let's see if this actually happens and if Europe follows (I doubt the whole 1200MHz are free here, at least not on paper)

The big fuckup of almost every regulatory body around the world was to not unlicence the analogue tv-whitespace in the 600-800MHz band.

At this frequency it's possible to build reliable local mesh networks. 802.11 is horrible inefficient through - why not mandating some open new standard with better usage of the bandwidth? It would still be a big win for a lot of communities.

But LTE happened and there was a lot of money to be made to sell the spectrum to big corps...

You are right - see my note [0] but I missed the bleedin obvious. Thanks for pointing it out.

In that case the hardware is effectively broken and all that's left is attempted software mitigation. Which may/may not work, but surely will cost performance. And extra complexity. And consequential possible bugs.

From memory a key can be represented as a random 64-bit integer taken from a sparse set. IOW you'd have bugger all chance of guessing another currently used 64-bit int, and if you tried and guessed wrong the OS, which would keep a list of caps allocated to each process) would say when you tried to use it "and where exactly did this come from, eh?" and kill you. But that's from memory and guesswork.

HTH and don't trust what I say too much!
quick question : is the videobridge a multiplexer -- that is all the clients send the webrtc stream to Videobridge and it combines and forwards the streams to the clients ? Or is it signalling server(STUN) and the clients forward streams to each other ? I am asking this as to decide if I could host the videobridge on on home network (video output from multiple clients would be a problem) or if I have to host this on a cloud ?
There are routine protocols to keep health care workers from infecting patients. This is common, because the problem is a very common one. The stuff that lives on a healthy nurses's hands may do no damage there, but would do terrible damage if it could invade a patient who's weak from yesterday's operation. The same applies to the common cold, to whatever the nurse may have picked up while treating another patient half an hour ago, and many, many other varieties of the same hygiene problem.

This post is obviously written with sarcasm. However, I've been enamoured with the G4 Cube and 12" PowerBooks since they first came out and haven't been able to find a device that's been as aesthetically pleasing since.

This may have something to do with those being as objects of desire from my youth.
Given none of them are used outside of their specialty, no.

For Python, it's the reversed: it's used everywhere, except for a few topics.

It's the only scripting language like that.

Leadership is simple: Be proactive and do the right thing.

That’s it. But being proactive and doing the right thing is often painful and difficult, so people avoid it.

We typically think of leaders as people being at the top of an organizational hierarchy, but everyone in an organization can be a leader according to this definition. Leadership doesn't arise from assuming a role, it arises from using one's role to further the objectives of the organization.

You don’t need books and instructions on how to be a leader. You just need to step up to the plate and have the courage to be one.
> Not really because Zoom makes fairly extensive use of the decrypted video streams on their servers, e.g. to detect who is talking, pause video for people with slow connections, etc. You could maybe do it for meetings with a few people in, but good luck doing it for meetings with 100 people.

You encrypt audio and video streams separately. If your connection is slow you stop grabbing the video stream. Detecting who is talking is a local function because you are receiving audio packets from them. Encryption doesn't have to change the amount of data sent.

> Hell the cryptography of group end-to-end encryption hasn't really been worked out yet. WhatsApp doesn't do it and that's just for text. I'm pretty sure Signal doesn't either.

Two ways:
1. Your password does not need to be shared with Zoom for entry into the meeting room. That password and the meeting room number are converted into a symmetric encryption key, so everyone who is able to join the meeting successfully has the same group shared secret for both sending and receiving video and audio.

2. You have an invitation system where the host of the meeting approves people. This approval causes the symmetric key of the meeting to be shared with the person seeking approval, encrypted to their public key. People who can supply a proof of possession of the password or whose public keys were associated with the meeting get invited without requiring confirmation by the host, although the participants in the room becomes a log of who was able to view the meeting.

These get harder if you want to say have a periodic key rotation while a meeting is going, for sure. They also get harder if you try to encrypt routing metadata or disguise that the traffic is audio/video in general.

The real thing that kills E2E for a corporate product like Zoom are the phone dial-ins. Hardly a point for all that security if you have one person calling in having the now unencrypted voice traffic bounced all over the place.

> There's really nothing bad with not having end-to-end encryption for group video conferencing apps. The shitty thing is that they pretended that they did.

100% agreed within Zoom's market because of integration of external services like dial-in/dial-out voice.

> It's also possible to get people to do things because they respect the authority of the officer. "If this cop says I am being an asshat and should stop, maybe I am being an asshat and should stop." This is what people mean when they talk about soft power.

Blindly following what the authority says is a gateway behaviour to fascism.

Regardless, this does not seem like a soft power and it is going to happen in the police of any counrty. If you do not follow what they said you are going to be in trouble after all. And no matter the country they DO rely on the threat of violence, this is the whole point of the police, their words are backed with a legal (or illegal) threat of violence.

Compare it to some random citizen telling you not to talk loudly because their child is sleeping. They do not have a state-backed ability to cause violence, and if they did try to attack you, you could go to the authorities.
I think "small government" principles can be set aside when it's expedient to do so. See how small government advocates at the Federal level try their best to override state laws on marijuana legalisation - such businesses still have difficulties getting a bank account.

Reagan, the arch-priest of the small government cult did it too. He bullied states into changing the minimum drinking age by withholding Federal funding.

Hi,
I'm Rose. I am a backend Java developer with experience in big data related technologies. My commercial experience is about 3 years, but in fact I spent almost all my available time with Java and Linux in that 3-4y period. I was working in search engine team - big data, and web Java Backend projects. I have experience in remote working so it's not a big deal for me to work that way effectively. I am currently learning some security related things because it's my new hobby. If you need some mid+ Java / Big data / Junior pentest specialist please contact me.
PS. I am not good in frontend tasks (as you will see on my github my new app is pink and full of unicorns so don't let me do that things in your projects :).
We are working on this right this instant. Expect updates soon!
> 2. Don't use agent forwarding unless you know you can trust the machine on the other end.

This gets said a lot, but doesn't forcing a prompt every time the forwarded key gets used mitigate this? SSH is not like surfing on the web with traffic flowing everywhere all the time. If you did not just now run any commands that are expected to invoke SSH, you probably don't want to answer yes to that prompt.
Great, some more wifi to add to the electrosmog soup we already live in. When are we going to start taking into account the health effects?
Germany started later, wait a few weeks and we will talk then. Spain was pretty good too when Italy was already in the hundreds of deaths.

England is looking far better than Spain and Italy NOW, but I will bet that the contagions and deaths are going to be higher ( proportionally speaking ) in a couple of months.
Ask HN: How do you debug REST APIs?
I started using Postman, but it's slowness, resources consumptions (>1GB RAM) and trying to do too many things always made me sad.

Then came Insomnia, I use it today, but it seems that it's becoming the new Postman, trying to do a lot of things and becoming slower every day.

I'm sticking to cURL, bash and jq as much as I can, but sometimes I need to see a catalog of endpoints, see a more structured list, then I have to resort to Insomnia.

Do you feel the same? What is your workflow?
The problem is, that then you have to send all video streams to all client, that doesn't scale very well.
You didn't look at this at all, did you? If you did, please explain how it's useless.

Without expecting anything or even knowing DeLillo, I bought a cheap faulty copy of "Libra" a few years at a train station bookshop. It is a brilliant novel for reasons I am not nearly eloquent enough to describe, and I very much doubt that the point DeLillo wanted to make could be phrased in less than the novel's 400 pages (which I think is true for most (if not all) great novels and the main reason why I was always extremely sceptical of anything resembling the classic "write down what the book is about" exercise in school).
1) That would be difficult to solve. If we used position reporting, and considered an area infected for a few days after an infected person arrived, it would most likely lead to unmanageable amounts of false positives.

2) Scanning is mostly just listening and waiting for other devices to send beacons. With one discoverable device nearby, it might take a moment to hear anything. With 50 devices nearby, you scan should be spammed with results.

You might have missed a few devices if you were unlucky and moved out of range before they got a successful beacon through. However, in that case you could use second-hand proximity to find the "lost" contact through some of the successful ones.

FDR was not long dead before the US ratified the XXII Amendment to the Constitution, providing that nobody might be elected president more than twice, or more than once if he had served more than two years of someone else's term.

Any long-serving member of the House of Representatives has become such by standing for election every other year; any long-serving senator by standing every six years. In some cases (think of Strom Thurmond) the election seems to be more or less a formality; but people do turn out and vote.

This is the perfect counterpoint to all the grandstanding about calling your representatives. I tried calling both my Senators' offices when one of the "big issues" was going around. (I don't even remember what it was now.) In both cases, I got some aide who 1) couldn't or wouldn't tell me my Senator's position on the bill, and 2) couldn't possibly care less (despite what they said) about my opinion on the matter. I mean, I'm sorry to be pessimistic about it, but on that day, I learned that the average person does NOT, in fact, have any influence in what's going on in Washington. Influencing legislation is a right reserved for campaign contributors. Until we get serious about "getting money out of politics," that will be the case.
