The comment I was replying to stated that "Renewables _always_ require a fossil backup". This is clearly untrue, as the multiple examples of grids that do not have or need fossil backup shows.

I didn't look at it in details, but in one of the screenshots the system asks for a pin to unlock the disk.

I agree that storing a full decryption key in the TPM may be risky. Even if the thread model should be considered (it may not be interesting for an attacker to go around doing this to Joe Random's laptop) it is something that users should be aware of.
As a slightly less snarky addendum to this: Good risk management is all about balancing the liklihood and severity of a threat against the cost of mitigating it.

If you spend $1000 (or equivalent in time/whatever you care about) mitigating a risk that at worst would cause you $10 worth of damage, that is a poor use of resources.

Honestly, if the police get into my house because of another way, I think that counts as 'defeating my lock'.
Indeed, the fact that police can blow a hole in my wall is part of why I say they can defeat the lock.

Change the analogy to a safe. No matter how good the safe, if police want, they can read the contents of the documents in my safe. The same can not be said for contents of encrypted documents.

Now, it might be possible for the police to persecute someone without access to those documents. Certainly, I am not arguing 'the police need this access because they used to have it'. All I am arguing is that encryption came with a meaningful change in what law enforcement can and cannot access without cooperation.

Claiming that we don't even need to consider the question because nothing meaningful changed is wrong. I don't believe we need to make that claim to argue against banning e2e encryption though.
Now we're talking. This is great!
I'd say the real divide over American healthcare funding reform is not between the industry and everyone else but rather between those Americans who believe government should work to improve the lives of the people and the 40% of Americans who see the role of government as preserving existing social hierarchy.

The healthcare industry does pour a lot of bribe money into preventing reform; see e.g. killing anti surprise billing legislation. However, the bulk of research into why the US doesn't have universal healthcare access points the blame at the blocking minority of Americans who'd prefer not have healthcare for themselves if the alternative is people lower on the social hierarchy (read: non-whites) having healthcare.

This is likely a far harder problem to fix than the already nearly insurmountable problem of excessive corporate influence over government policy.

This is not at all about "dumbing down" or "information density", this is about choice and ability to consume content at one's own terms.

If a website leaves the text width to the reader (or their user agent), everybody wins, because everybody can read the text at their preferred width.

If, on the other side, a website tries to prescribe how wide the text should be, that choice is gone, and some readers inevitably lose.

So, no, my argument is not entirely symmetric - one approach gives everybody the same choice, the other one removes it.

To answer your "why don't you resize your window?", in the approach you seem to prefer, I do not have that option, because the website took that away from me, and no amount of resizing my window will change the text width the website dictates.

But as I mentioned, I already do go out of my way to configure my user agent to work for me, by means of a browser extension. Unless you want to take that choice away from me as well...?

Web Developer: So you're telling me that we can get away with not supporting Firefox and you'll eventually follow suit?
Firefox: That's not what I meant
Web Developer: -webkit-something-something: 1

To be honest I think that Firefox has already crossed the point of no return, in the past Firefox used to have a share of about 30% of the market and supporting Firefox was justified even if that meant writing twice the lines of code, but nowadays the share is less than 3%. Firefox doesn't have enough resources to compete against Chrome with features, and people doesn't care enough about security to justify a broken web for the sake of security.

I don't know whether it's a good idea or not, but rather than pitching Firefox for the mainstream web, I would push Firefox to become the de-facto browser for security sensitive scenarios (ex. online shopping, online banking, taxes, etc.). Supporting a subset of the web makes more sense in a resource-constrained scenario especially because the Servo experiment and the Rust project exist to tackle the security issue.

In a thread of people arguing about existential threats, 19 billion dollars is not a very interesting figure. 19 billion would be a pretty good argument most of the time, it just happens that in this specific thread it is not a very well placed response.

The argument is "we could have avoided an apparently existential threat at any time with this tech, and there is evidence what we're actually doing won't avoid the thread" and the response is "nuclear isn't free". There is a mighty disconnect here somewhere.

No. You can plug an `UInt8(255)` in an online playground and try to increment it, it’ll crash unless you use an overflowing operator.

In debug mode, Rust will panic on overflow (regardless of signing). You can also enable overflow-checks in release mode.

Whether an app is fast or not is usually down to the person who wrote it and their skill in optimizing code rather than the technology it was made with. For example, VSCode is Electron and it's pretty fast out of the box (so long as you've not weighed it down with plugins).
Now imagine you get banned from GitHub and not only lose access to your data, but lose access to all the online tools you’ve become dependant on.

It’s like the App Store debate from a decade ago. It was obvious that opting in to curation was a bad idea, but first movers were rewarded with huge profits because Apple was effectively giving them a ton of free advertising via discovery.

This will be the same. The true long term cost of losing control is massive and not being adequately assessed as the huge risk it is.
Breaking Trust: The Dataset
I agree libraries shouldn't rely on process-global state. It's also bad library design to trigger signed overflow. In my libraries I try to handle both situations cleanly, but that's all beside the point.

There's also the problem that SIG_IGN handlers are inherited across exec. So Rust programs that exec other programs without restoring the default handler could cause problems in programs where relying on SIGPIPE is more reasonable. This is also true of posix_spawn: SIG_IGN handlers aren't implicitly reset.

Note that Rust doesn't restore any other handlers to their default disposition as far as I can tell. Do you write all your programs to reset signal disposition on startup? I'll admit I don't normally do that unless it's a daemon.

Corporations do not have unlimited freedom of association anyways. For instance, we already acknowledge that corporations can't refuse to associate with people on the basis of skin color.

Ask HN: Unreasonable AWS Charges – How to Negotiate?
Over the last few months I have been incurring large charges from AWS for billions of LIST requests on S3 buckets.

The S3 buckets are private and we haven't been doing anything in the accounts which would lead to these billions of scans. We do have a widely deployed SaaS tool in the account but I don't think that would do it either.

What has annoyed me is the attitude of their support. They just say they've looked into it and they won't reverse the charges and because logging wasn't on at the time I am out of luck. They don't appear to be willing to negotiate.

Being reasonable, I'm sure this comes from an error on our side rather than billing error, but we are completely in the dark what could have caused it so don't think we should be completely on the hook.

I always thought of AWS as quite customer centric and heard they were helpful in these situations, but guess they are getting big enough to start engaging in this Oracle like behaviour.
It is very much news to me that key-recovery from the TPM is not supposed to be that hard.

If that is the case, how does it strengthen a PIN? Any attacker wanting to find a decryption key could simply extract the key, and then brute-force the PIN outside of the TPM constraints, can't they?
In most developed countries driving on the beach is illegal, except for specific areas.
I fully agree these things are difficult and not well defined how to benchmark this. Actually thinking on what you wrote the sum+= should lead to WAW and RAW conflicts, which might not allow full ultilization of the execution ports. It would be interesting to see if having 10 temp(or 16ä

>Can't we blame them for shitty support at least? For not providing any explanation at all? For not having an appeal process?

By all means, that's a well known problem with Google, way beyond Youtube. The way they treat content creators and smaller customers is frankly disrespectful. That being said I still think that while they could handle these matters better, in this case I suspect that the end result would effectively be the same.

>For always taking side of the IP Owner? For deleting the channel instead of some other mechanism? For not actually fighting for reasonable IP laws for this kind of video?

No, that part is not something I'd necessarily blame them for. You're asking them to go through a world of trouble for content that's not even theirs. When you create a Youtube account you're not entitled to Google's legal team. You're not a partner in this relationship, you're arguably not even a customer unless you buy ads.

>I don't know why people come out to defend the shitty actions of a Fortune 50 company and explain why the underdog had it coming.

The relative size of these entities is frankly irrelevant in this case. I could spend all day bashing Google for various things (and do on occasions, as my comment history shows) but in this case I'm not sure that the guy uploading unlicensed song covers while claiming fair use and getting copyright struck to death is really the best showcase of Google's abusive practices.
The idea I think is very useful from a UX perspective.

Some questions that immediately hit me:

How will you incentivise users to want to jump on a video chat with a random person? I think some people may be frightened by the thought of a stranger opening a video chat with them?

Currently the video opens full screen. Have you considered having a floating window to allow the user to continue interacting with the website?

Have you considered tracking interactions or even sharing the users screen to allow you, as a UX person, to see what the user is seeing (while talking with them).

Very solid demo! Thanks for sharing.

Some forms of TPM tampering are explicitly addressed in the threat model:

> The PCR values in the TPM are not "secret", so an adversary with physical access could directly wire to the TPM and provide it with the correct measurements to extend the PCRs to match the signed values. The user PIN is still necessary to unseal the secret and the TPM dictionary attack protections both rate-limit and retry-limit the attacker.

Decaping chips to recover secrets is outside of the threat model, however.
> Note that Rust also traps on integer overflow, and it is trivial to „hack“ the compiler to disable this, and many have done so.

“Hack” is a completely unsuitable term, there’s a simple and official compilation flag which can be flipped on or off.

It’s also misleading to say that Rust will trap on overflow: rustc enables overflow checking by default in debug mode, but disables it in release.

BOUND is pretty slow, and requires an odd start/end pair to be placed in memory. I don't see any reason that it would be better than the usual unsigned comparison + branch that languages with bounds checking tend to use.

Besides, much of the difficulty with memory safety in C and C++ is the existence of pointers (or wrappers around them, like iterators), which do not come with an associated length. Length checking machinery can't help with that problem whether special instructions exist or not.

In short, it's doubtful that the availability of these old instructions would make any difference to the practicality of bounds checking on modern x86 machines whatsoever.
