They might slightly increase the already high level of transmission in the covid wing of the hospital, but the point is that they save the life of the person they are ventilating.

I'm always surprised at the degree to which people will take a good deed and twist it make it seem wrong or ineffective. Why? Is it a general hatred for Musk? ...or something more general? A hatred of successful people? Or a hatred of wealthy people? Why the irrational bias?
This says that Facebook have built a test facility and if they detect the virus then they do a full genome sequence. Facebook are doing genome sequencing, this seems less than ideal.

> Let this be another nail in the coffin of the "walled garden" farce.

There is no coffin, the walled gardens are not dying, and have long since become the norm, which happened because the people found them to be better than the alternative: getting apps (and manually updating them) from many different sources of varying quality and convenience.
Disagree. Boredom is an important part of life. We need boredom to become creative.
We use Meet already for 3-4 years including hardware in the meeting rooms. It is awesome. Zoom got virally popular and had the big grid view which made it popular in these times. However, practically spoken, Meet was always there and was already productive for many years.

Hangout != Meet
I think the fact that this is very much possible today disproves the argument the article is trying to make.
I do have my scrollback buffer. The tmux session is on the VM, and within that session is another ssh connection to the target system. If the target system and the VM are disconnected (very unlikely without either the target or VM restarting) then sure, I might lose my scrollback (since tmux is execed with the SSH command, when it exits the session will end), but in the much more common scenario that my side loses connectivity to the VM (or I change locations), the VM still has an active connection going on in a tmux session that I'm joining.

ET looks great for a lot of things, but not necessarily this environment, which is a few hundred systems administered by multiple people, with extremely high stability and security requirements. Honestly, all the extra stuff ET and MOSH does is to give you that extra 1-2% of features to make it seamless, but at the expense of separate protocols and new software, so you don't have to expend new hardware (or in this case, virtualized hardware.

Connectivity problems almost always come from the last mile, whether that's you moving to make the last mile somewhere else or your wifi or home connection having a problem. A VM at Digital Ocean, or in my case the highly redundant and available VMware cluster at work, is much less likely to have any sort of problems, as are the servers that are generally being connected to (and it those ARE having problems, you can't rely on sessions to them being kept anyway).

For 99% of the cases, you can get by easily by just SSHing to a highly available VM, starting a tmux session for the desired connection, and within that session SSHing to the desired system. Jumping through other systems with SSH is so common that OpenSSH has features built in to support it, even transparently (where your config can just make it automatic for a class of systems). In fact, I bet there's a way to get the OpenSSH Proxying SSH server to keep the session open to reconnect to from the client if it's only the client side that had a problem, so it doesn't even require the little script I have. It's actually on my todo list to figure out the windows included OpenSSH agent stuff and see how well the new Windows Terminal works as an SSH terminal, but I haven't gotten around to it (or just use the WSL stuff, but I haven't seen much need for it yet, I'm happy to do most my dev work in vim on a dev server).

Regarding slippery slopes, the problem here is the personal unity of enforcing gatekeepers and the providers of communication technology, who become by this effectively sovereign entities. This is much like what had happened in Europe in the 19th century with state control(1) and which eventually resulted in the civil/liberal revolution.

Arguably, measures of a state of emergency are best left to the sovereign state, which is kept in bounds by the constitution and an elaborate system of checks, which arose because of these exact problems.

Edit:
(1) Meaning, nationalized, now state controlled postal services in combination with sovereign censorship were, apart from taxation, how most citizens were confronted by the state on a practical level, often so for the first time. Most of our ideas of civil rights resulted from this confrontation.
If you really care that much about fallacies, you should at least pick the correct one. In this case, what you were really looking for is "Tu quoque."

Human greediness is endless. Using AI for stock trading is just unethical and waste of resources. We are sick.

Open-minded or not, people want to communicate to other people, like their friends. So they join networks which their friends have joined. This naturally results in a single, winner-takes-all network.

That network can be federated, of course! Look how interoperable email or phone networks are. Too bad they are mostly a few behemoths that have to interoperate because they cannot eat each other, for market and legal reasons.

A federated network is going to always be less feature-rich, slower, and more hassle to deal with; Moxie Marlinspike wrote a good text about that.

So, unless users make a constant, conscious effort to stay on a federated network, outside the luring walled gardens, the walled gardens win. And most people don't even think about all the privacy implications and stuff, they just want to share cat photos with friends.
Me too. Title is confusing
I will just say kudos to you for admitting when you were wrong. Many people would have just ignored my comment and never responded.
God, they spend so much time on emoji which is much the same. They are becoming a bit of a joke!
This is utter, complete nonsense.

Most people don't wash their hands properly either, but we tell people to do it because even washing hands poorly is better than not. Even "fools" wearing masks wrong would help more than not having them at all.

The parent is right: was pure, transparent, bullshit. If they were intending to preserve masks for healthcare workers, then just say that. Telling people they don't work was not just stupid, it was dangerous and almost certainly made the situation worse. Don't lie to people about their health.
Uau! Congratulations, that was lots of effort going through all of that.

In my opinion, cyclists should treat red lights like stop signs. Come to a stop, yes, but it's often easy to see if it's safe to proceed. Traffic lights are there to make cars safer. It's completely unfair to slow down cyclists unnecessarily as a result.
That seems very unlike the political and ethical philosophy he espoused in life.

And he was an academic and teacher throughout, graduating in 1923 and becoming a fellow of King’s in 1924, then lecturer, then Director of Studies.
This is one of the most important roles of a strong leader: to swashbuckle through this kind of misalignment.

Organizations age poorly by default. People become motivated to climb the org chart--or, even easier, to stay in place while sprouting new branches under themselves. People become risk averse and unimaginative.

The only way to avoid that fate is with strong leadership. Starship will replace the Falcon 9, and I'm sure there are people on the Falcon team who are not thrilled about that, but the show goes on anyway. Everyone is on a shared mission. It's clear that SpaceX culturally doesn't tolerate people more concerned with internal politics than they are with going to space. Culture comes from the top--the founders, the CEO, and flows from there.

I've read conflicting information about warming up over the years but it at least appears to me that the consensus is slowly moving away from several common exercises such as stretching, which apparently even seems to have negative effects.
But security is not binary. They (especially Apple) are doing something to limit the amount of fraudulent apps on their platform.

I would strongly prefer having a free-for-all platform because I have some basic knowledge of information security. Most people don't.
I appreciate the intention behind these things. However, I do not feel like this method is better than to just use the English language, if everyone is fluent in it.

For instance, `praise: nice test` sounds a little weirdly robotic in the way that if you were to walk up to someone and say "I am now going to give you a compliment. You are wearing a nice dress."

Yes. From the ssh-keygen man page:

> Specifies the number of bits in the key to create. For RSA keys, the minimum size is 1024 bits and the default is 2048 bits. Generally, 2048 bits is considered sufficient. DSA keys must be exactly 1024 bits as specified by FIPS 186-2. For ECDSA keys, the -b flag determines the key length by selecting from one of three elliptic curve sizes: 256, 384 or 521 bits. Attempting to use bit lengths other than these three values for ECDSA keys will fail. Ed25519 keys have a fixed length and the -b flag will be ignored.

Those many coders you are referring to don't get existential satisfaction out of programming. Programming is just like any other creative medium in that respect. Anyone can learn to write, and some can even make a career writing professionally, but a lot fewer spend their free time writing for fun. The more lucrative a career in an art can be, the more people there will be who have no interest in it beyond a way of making money.

This was my second stage of enjoying learning my mother tongue. Not Patrick Stewart specifically (he's superb), but doing Shakespeare in secondary school (UK). Great fun. This was an inner London comprehensive not a fancy school at any level, yet everyone loved it. Who hates shouting 'Ho!' at the rest of the class? The interpretation, flexibility, etymology, was enlightening.

The third stage was writing a thesis in university. I think you're there for precise writing already. I think you're > a lot of native speakers already. Try some Shakespeare. Lots of good other suggestions here too; find one that fits, and try a few that might not seem they do, but then do.

>Truly a lesson in humility.

Not at all. You are making a fundamental, erroneous assumption: that the actions taken were made in good faith.

This is a political failure. Trump and his administration chose again and again to put politics above public health. Over and over, given a choice, he chose to pander to his base and attack his perceived enemies rather than helping the country. These weren't miscalculations. The miscalculations happened at the state and local levels, but at the federal level there was very much a knowing purpose.
The most gain I've had in the recent years was having vscode remote. Instead of fiddling with terminal editors forever, just have a decent ssh config with all your host, and connect instantly.

Still looking for a way to make sftp/scp work fast.
I think it's purely for performance, but it does make a big difference. There's a lot of round trips to set up an SSH connection, and depending on the RTT to the server, that can feel like a real delay if there's another host in the connection. If you use a Proxy host for jumping, and it's got a better RTT to most servers you connect to, reusing the existing connection to it might actually make it feel like it connects faster than a direct connection from your workstation would.

e.g.

$ ping -c 2 foo
PING foo (a.b.c.d) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from foo (a.b.c.d): icmp_seq=1 ttl=55 time=3.56 ms
64 bytes from foo (a.b.c.d): icmp_seq=2 ttl=55 time=3.62 ms

--- foo ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 3ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 3.564/3.594/3.624/0.030 ms
$ time ssh root@foo "echo foo"
foo

real 0m0.650s
user 0m0.062s
sys 0m0.006s

Now if I add the following to .ssh/config:

Host foo
controlmaster auto
controlpath ~/.ssh/ssh-%r@%h:%p

You can see how much faster it gets if I already have a connection to that server open:

$ time ssh root@foo "echo foo"
foo

real 0m0.032s
user 0m0.003s
sys 0m0.004s
So you are telling me, that you write an article with misstakes and think you should be the person making statements because you are able to write an article?

And you also think, that politicians are doing an economycal suicide just because they like it?

Srsly, wouldn't you assume and shouldn't you assume, that there are experts calculating and estimating that shit on every single day and trying there best to find a reasonable way out of this?
Usually it means you're still coding, but entering the "code" into forms and wizards instead of text. After that inevitably fails there are usually text coding fallbacks that require 10 times more code than if you'd written the whole thing from scratch.

Captcha vs. Honeypot Method
Not only is it standard procedure in recent pandemics for the US to make their own kits as the pother poster noted, but other developed countries do the same thing. China, Japan, Korea, and the UK all made their own kits too. These are just the countries I checked into. The WHO kit by the way is the one made by Germany, not some grand international super-kit. Imagine if it had been the faulty one.

And developed countries wouldn't actually use WHO kits, just the protocol to manufacture their own tests. The WHO distributes kits only to poor countries. Everyone still runs into the same issues ramping up production.
There Are Four Types of Leaders. Which Are You?
YouTube's unstated assumption is that people in general are not smart enough to deal with unsubstantiated claims. Offensive though it may sound, that's true else the world would have erupted in laughter if someone suggested injecting disinfectant in response to a disease.

Perez criticizes the objection to statements of the type 'take vitamin C; take turmeric, we’ll cure you’. But 'cure' is the problem since it's unsubstantiated. There are many peer-reviewed papers offering excellent reasons based on biochemical evidence, for taking, in some measure, vitamin C and turmeric (and other phytochemicals). But use of the word 'cure' is a step too far.
I do not own a car and cycle every day in SF.

I have seen 3 accidents and maybe 100 near misses involving cyclists and have been in a few myself. In all of them, it was the cyclists fault.

Cyclists may have higher risks, but that doesn't seem to stop us from doing stupid dangerous things all the time. Although in fairness most near accidents I have seen are vagrants crossing a busy intersection without waiting for a green, seemingly with the intention of being run over.

hey you're right! I have removed '-b 521' from the ssh-keygen command.
Yeah, that was my point, this knowledge is getting lost, only to be re-discovered by those that love to dig into computer history.

Just to think that what is now on a ESP32 die took over a complete desk at the high school computer club and was still weaker than what ESP32 is capable of, yet that mentality also persists for what 80's hardware was already capable of.

I think the writers know these stories get traction so they just keep doing a variation on the same theme. They're not really in it to explain anything. They just want the clicks and the engagement numbers to go up.

Most (if not all) companies that push a system wide root certificate do not allow you to BYOD for the same reason they install that root certificate.
I once did a project with the Dutch Police and this care about privacy definitely did exist.

For example, they have an app (literally "The Police App") that you can install if you want notifications from police reports in your area. Think missing persons reports, wrong-way riders, etc. Now, they could simply make a database of every app user and track their location in it to know who to send a push notification. But, even though the app requires no signup, they decided that this was too privacy-invading and they had no business tracking people's whereabouts. So for each notification, even if it was only relevant to a tiny low population town in the middle of nowhere, they'd send a push notification including some geofence data to every single app user, and then the app would locally compare that data to the current location and simply block the notification from appearing if it was outside the target region.

That's wasteful and messy, but it was very privacy conscious. I was pretty impressed.

So no, plenty government agencies care a lot about this stuff.
In regards to point number 2: the Name Constraints extension[1] appears to be getting more support, at least in Chrome and Firefox on non-OSX devices[2], which could help mitigate the very serious vulnerability presented by installing root certificates, by limiting the CAs scope to just the company domain, for example.

I think because the big failing before was that Zoom was using AES, but was using it in ECB mode. Zoom clearly paid near-zero attention to security until recently.

So by saying “GCM encryption” they’re highlighting that the fixed the mode by which they are using AES encryption.
> When companies I work with look for no/low code, the only reason they will not use it is vendor lock in; if they cannot run on premise and/or ‘eject’ the code, they will not use it. Several products allow this

What nocode tools don't have lock-in? The ones I know which are open source still have these proprietary add-ons for important stuff like authentication or connecting to other systems.

Interesting stuff. I know my old ereader would flash the whole screen black and then white on each page flip. I'm actually really interested in creating a little dashboard that sits under my monitor so I can look down and see some important stats like if there are any peer reviews waiting on me and stuff like that.
Can’t you just use a Let’s Encrypt cert? The domain needs to be publicly resolvable, but it doesn’t have to resolve to the same IP returned by your internal DNS, and you can use wildcard certificates if you don’t want your internal subdomains to be publicly resolvable at all.
I set the region to Slovakia: it shows me a map of the UK Worcester and mixed results mostly about the US one:

You don't expect to be able to click emoji, and they don't lose their meaning when printed out on paper.
My point is that it cannot be clear what assuming (1) entails when you aren't properly defining the quantities involved. You have to answer in clear and mathematical language what the quantity in (1) is defined as. What is the definition of "0.666…7"?

As it currently stands, assumption (1) is similar in nature to me saying "gnarfgnarf is an imaginary number". It's completely meaningles unless I define what I mean by gnarfgnarf.

So: what do you mean by 0.666…7?
I don't follow.

When I do #include <stdbool.h> it also brings the #define bool _Bool, a keyword from the standard library.

> It is unclear that the entity in question is actually an element of plain text, given the inevitable connection to its function in linking to other documents, and thus its coexistence with markup for links. Furthermore, the existing widespread practice of representing this sign on web pages using images (often specified via CSS styles) would be unlikely to benefit from attempting to encode a character for this image.

I don't really have a horse in this race, but... isn't the existing widespread practice of representing the sign using images attributable to the fact there is not a character available? What else do they want people to do? The point of adding the character is so that in the future people can use text instead of an image.
