Cool, thanks. I found https://blog.thinkst.com/p/canarytokensorg-quick-free-detect... is there a better writeup you have offhand? https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie has been on my todo list for a while too, but more as a toy than a serious thing.

> The networks I'm describing aren't "ideal" or "highly secured". I am describing table stakes. While I was at Latacora, most of the clients we engaged with were already at this level of maturity when we joined up.

One of the most valuable things you do here is describe things that you believe are table stakes to people and organizations that have never heard of them. Companies like Latacora tend to self-select for clients that are at least aware that security should be a sensible line item in their quarterly budget. There are many many more organizations for whom moving ssh or even port knocking amount to a real improvement to their infrastructure. :-(
Might check it out. Snow Crash is my second favorite of his that I’ve read—despite not enjoying a good chunk of it—largely on account of its shortish length.
Seriously, creator of well-know shitty operating system with shady business practices?
part of that, for LA at least, is that the mixed-use here still requires parking, which is expensive. so it's designed with low commercial square footage to make room for ground-level and above ground parking, which is cheaper than subterranean parking. the commercial space is minimized to a token amount likely to meet the necessary zoning/permitting restrictions to get the benefit of higher floor area ratios (FAR) for the least cost. then the businesses that can fit in the space, given the high rents, aren't nearly as attractive to residents, who are also paying high rents.

I would say it fits his description (but well, I'm also quick to dismiss it all because ergonomics matter), so it's at least equivalent in power. I have no idea what he would say, I imagine a serious lisper would be offended by the suggestion (because, well, ergonomics matter), but would take a while to even understand why.
They were already non viable.
The thing you have to remember about Snow Crash is that it did for cyberpunk what Harvey Danger's "Flagpole Sitta" did for grunge music: use the hallmarks of the genre to parody its contradictions and self-indulgence. It's very much a book of its time, and might not be as well appreciated were it released today.
> How does one tab relate to another. Which sites opened which tabs.

> Tabs are a poor but semi-adequate way to preserve the relationship between urls,

I recommend Tree Style Tab [0], which fully preserves this relationship. When one tab opens another, the child tab automatically becomes a child in the tree, making the whole thing very self-organizing. Also being a tree, the parents can be expanded/collapsed, if there's a group you're putting aside for the moment.

That's for Firefox, at least. It looks like there's a few that other people have made for Chrome [1][2], but I can't speak to how well they perform.

Swedes (where IKEA is from) are famous for saying their IKEA furniture is just what they use until their kids are old enough not to wreck the good furniture they have in storage.

The trick is finding better than IKEA quality furniture. You might wind up paying more for something that is still IKEA quality.

Covid-19 Stay-at-Home Data by US County
Hello folks, I'm looking for data source that shows stay at home orders for every US county. Ideally I would also like which types of businesses are allowed to re-open, and when, all broken down by county. I'm asking all over the interwebs - do any of you guys/gals know where I can find something like this. Thank you very much!
One of my university courses offered an opportunity for a project like this and I did it with some classmates.

We started by altering the ssh daemon to disallow all logins over this ssh daemon and to log all the usernames and passwords attempted. After a week we gathered thousands of attempts to brute force into the honeypot. Interestingly enough, the passwords used were a combination of the very commonly used ones but also ones that were clearly from other popped boxes.

After a week or so of this we altered the ssh daemon again. This time it would log all attempts but also grant access on the 3rd attempt no matter what the credentials were. The few bots that managed to get in all tried to install various rootkits on the machine, all of which where targeted at a different distro of Linux than we were using so it mostly just busted up our shells output.

It was a long time ago but a great experience.

This being my short list off the top of my head. Hopefully I can edit with some more later.

Interesting. The only issue I’ve had was ensuring knocks were received in order. DDNS being the worst culprit. Ensuring an adequate delay between knocks solved my problems. However, I use this for home (friends and family only) nothing serious.

If I were to use a daemon I’d go with an SPA, like fwknop. The lack of an iOS client is the only reason I still use port knocking.
It's pretty clever advertising really. I don't imagine that having noticed an HTTP header would really give an applicant much of a boost in the interview process, but to some it probably feels like finding a ticket to Willy Wonka's factory and may motivate them to apply in the first place.
Is there a document (or a book) somewhere that details who all these semiconductor equipment manufacturers are, and their history? I'm extremely interested in this space and would love to learn more about it.

While still an issue, many of the really bad offenders leaked chemicals for instance doesn't happen much anymore. Mostly because fab materials are expensive to get and purify. Simply dumping them is wasteful, so anything that can be salvaged and used on the next batch is big savings.

This has always been the challenge between HBO GO and Now. There were legacy contract obligations that historically prevented these from becoming one app. It's always been such an issue that every app store listing headline just disambiguates between the related apps.

I assume this still factors in to the decision to now have four US apps: HBO Max (the new one), Max Go (Cinemax), HBO Now (pay with credit card), & HBO GO (cable subscription).

The good news is, there is no separate, lower-tier team producing content for Max vs. HBO proper. The content team just has way more money to invest (from AT&T) after the acquisition.
In the US, public universities often have their own police departments with sworn peace officers who are as real as any other police. Private schools only have security guards and call in local police for anything important.

My play store dev account was deleted, but my gmail and everything was fine. Good thing because I had a lot on there.

To get back to the store I created a new account with a different name. But then google took down my apps because their bots said I was impersonating “Joe Hinkle” (which is me). So then I made this blog post to “verify” that Joe Hinkle gave permission for Impact Studios (my new account name) to host my content, and it worked...somehow...

The blog post that somehow convinced them is here. https://blog.joehinkle.io/2017/04/proving-impact-studios-is-...
If you already have HBO Now, then no. You're already going to get HBO Max on launch.

If you're subscribed to HBO via your cable provider, then you need to rethink your life choices (I mean, rethink your purchasing decision, because you'll be missing out on a ton of content).

IKEA’s founder did the same thing, moving from Sweden to Lausanne Switzerland to avoid tax. Switzerland has taxes, but they can be negotiated to flat values rather than rates on income.
Tesla was also the name of a Czechoslovak elektronics company, known among other thing for their electron microscopes. Even though this Tesla is long gone, it has a lasting legacy here in Brno due to many electron microscope manufacturers (Delong, FEI, Thermo Fisher, etc.) being present and often libking their origin or many employees to the old Tesla company.

I appreciate the good-natured disagreement!

Long-term independence and stability of Taiwan is necessary for TSMC to keep existing. It's in its best interest to keep existing.

I'm pretty sure the government doesn't need to approve of this sort of thing; VIA got away with it.

Further entangling itself with the US would be keeping itself for the most part in Taiwan. "We have drastically better tech than you, and your military, intelligence agencies & universities really desperately need these!" is a fantastic incentive. "Here's a factory that allows the US to be pretty much self-sufficient and no longer dependent on us for the next few years while you haphazardly try and get on top of the world again" is not nearly as good of an incentive.

Taiwan gets invaded yesterday, suddenly the US is in a sticky situation. Taiwan gets invaded when this factory is finished? 5nm vs 2-3nm isn't a huge difference.
"NO UNIFIED BUG LIST
Do not track bug reports and feedback as a team. Nobody will consult that list. Not the developers, and not the people reporting the bugs.

Respond to them in the moment:

This may be the worst idea I have read in over a year.
Sigma-Delta is very easy to implement as well; it just requires a different way of thinking. In S-D you always try to preserve and compensate for the errors you make in quantization, while in PWM you throw the errors away. In physics you'd label S-D an error-conserving system vs PWM an error-dissipative system.
I redesigned my blog and started writing again during the quarantine. I've also run a clean install on my Mac because it couldn't boot for some reason. One valuable lesson I learned during the clean install was to set up the development environment correctly. I should've realized that most people don't understand Unix directory structure. As a result, they run `sudo` if something doesn't work.

I wrote the guide to myself, but I emphasized the importance of dependency manager in the post: https://sayzlim.net/setup-macos-web-development/

It becomes much easier to learn a new framework knowing that I've installed everything correctly on my Mac. No more struggling with permission errors.
I hear good things about Pivotal. They take pair programming seriously.
I had a similar idea for financing Open Source software projects. The contributing sponsors would get their URL and add-text into a comment at the top of the source-code. The bigger your sponsorship the higher up in the list your company will be.

The adds would of course be targeted at hackers, such as come work for us, since only hackers read source-code. So it would be a very targeted ad (like the http-header thing).

I don't know if this has been tried out in practice but why not, if even HTTP-headers are used for a similar purpose?

A memorable description of one chemical used in fabs:

[Chlorine trifluoride] is apparently about the most vigorous fluorinating agent known, and is much more difficult to handle than fluorine gas. That’s one of those statements you don’t get to hear very often, and it should be enough to make any sensible chemist turn around smartly and head down the hall in the other direction.

The compound also a stronger oxidizing agent than oxygen itself, which also puts it into rare territory. That means that it can potentially go on to “burn” things that you would normally consider already burnt to hell and gone, and a practical consequence of that is that it’ll start roaring reactions with things like bricks and asbestos tile. It’s been used in the semiconductor industry to clean oxides off of surfaces, at which activity it no doubt excels.

Your car is presumably not always at home. So, a solar panels on the roof of your house don’t increase the range of your car. At highway speeds assuming regular charges that’s mostly irrelevant. But if you’re camping or run out of charge it could become so.

Even relatively small solar arrays could keep a car from discharging at an airport parking lot etc. That could extend to running the climate controls when your shopping without concern for draining the battery.

PS: That said, the roof also has many advantages such as allowing you to park in a garage without issue.
