how? microsoft is big. and every time there is somekind of hot topic around microsoft, I try to find if someone is discussing it internally. to this date I have not able to find any written internal discussion (which actually makes sense in a way :P). maximum you get is some discussion in cafeteria or smoking area, but no follow up in yammer, teams or mail. I'm probably doing something wrong...
> It really should be illegal to have network connected cars. Any software security engineer knows that. Everybody loves network connected new cars. Nobody thinks about the fact that they are "fly by wire"

I fully agree that automotive and medical equipment/IT could greatly benefit from not having security as an afterthought.

However, I don't know any vehicle with connectivity (other than that Jeep Cherokee controversy), which does not have safety critical CAN/FlexRay buses segregated from user facing 'infotainment' systems.

What that means is that the network bus in which your 'compromised' infotainment system is able to operate is completely separate from Engine, ABS, AEB, ESP, Airbags etc.

The solutions vary but there is usually a physical gateway that prevents a passthrough MITM attacks, so for example you cannot simple send a message frame from your infotainment pretending to be an Emergency braking request to your ABS system.
Why hasn't this project migrated away from github yet?
Where's the rest of it? I'm only seeing one page.
It's an alternative implementation, and may be useful depending on what happens with the main youtube-dl project.

Perhaps a case of "the more the merrier"?
It certainly makes zero or almost no downtime deployments easier. Assume a Java application with a database that accesses said database during initialization - for a schema change you have to take great care in code that both the old and the new code can concurrently work on the same database to achieve low downtime.

With a PHP application, it's easier - spin up the new Docker container, disconnect the loadbalancer, do the schema change, and connect the loadbalancer to the new Docker container.
Granted, I'm from the US and live in Norway - so I might be wrong - but I'm not sure if that would be all that legal in Norway. Yes, you may own the expanse of wood, but if you aren't actively using it for things, folks can walk there and camp there. I don't have to get permission.

In the US, I'd be trespassing and could expect police to say something. For a long time, it felt like I was doing something wrong or illegal.
> It really should be illegal to have network connected cars.

The important systems should not be permitted to be connected to the Internet. If an Internet-enabled entertainment system is fully isolated from the systems that really matter, there's no problem.

> I'm definitely not bitter - but I'd say it's typical of you as a Swede to characterize my hatred of Sweden in that negative way.

I just shared my own experience, which I would call bitterness. Basically, I couldn't appreciate the good parts because I was blinded by the bad parts. Maybe there's a better word than bitter, I don't know. I won't assume our situations were identical, so feel free to disregard what I said if it doesn't apply to you...

Then I'm curious, what country would be ideal for you to live in? And have you lived there as an adult? In my experience, you only get a true sense of a country if you live there as a working adult, even better if you have kids. As a student, or short term visitor, there's no way of knowing what it's like. That's why my image of Sweden was so rosy (and also because I didn't know anything else), I hadn't actually lived there as a working adult by the time I moved back. Likewise, my view of the US took a sharp turn for the worse once I entered work life there.

I'm not asking for lies to make me feel good, just more regarding technological progress, positive trends in the use of renewables etc.

It would be nice to read a news letter to give us some hope for the future.

Maybe there is no good news? I find it hard to believe that though.
If you're threat modeling, you need to know what you're dealing with. The equipment obviously wasn't designed with the goal of being able to destroy itself (even though it's possible). If equipment starts failing, identifying the source could be critical in limiting damage, and the best way to be able to recognize this kind of attack is do it and record the result.

> In Canada Unis opened up, there were house parties, dorm parties, bars with drunk student what the goddam hell were they thinking? How about: nobody in your house/dorm unless they live there, 'outdoor beer gardens' only, limit 2 beers. Have a 'dance party' in a big open parking lot to break the social malaise. Otherwise threaten expel students who break the established rules for putting other people's lives at risk.

They were thinking "My risk from COVID is exceptionally low, as is the risk of everyone I live with." I don't understand why this seems crazy to anyone. More college students die from suicide every year than would die if they all got COVID (in the US, assuming that current mortality rates hold). Many colleges are even self-contained, in a way, because they're a "college town" wherein everything revolves around the college.

If there were a single group of people that I would say were in a good demographic to be out of quarantine, it would be college students. They're unlikely to die from the disease, they're far less likely to live with someone in a risky group, and they're old enough to make a decision on whether they want to quarantine or not. They're also unlikely to overwhelm medical services, given the rate that they're asymptomatic at.

As others have pointed out, this is very misleadingly editorialized due to ytdl’s vastly expanded scope. The submission title should be changed to the actual title, “Download Youtube Video in Golang”. (Edit: the title was something like "youtube-dl in golang, actively maintained" when the comment was posted.)

Btw, I should point out there's no shortage of web video downloader projects that support YouTube as well as different, often reduced (compared to ytdl) collections of sites, with different focuses and ergonomics. For instance, two projects I've used/contributed to, both active, YouTube-supporting, and with a focus on Chinese sites:

- https://github.com/soimort/you-get (Python, 8 years old, 35.8k stars)

- https://github.com/iawia002/annie (Golang, 2-3 years old, 12.7k stars)

(Not trying to diminish the project posted; what I'm saying is you can find quite a few actively maintained projects with reduced scope if you look around.)

That's funny, a swedish journalist did a nice report on the same topic, probably for exactly the same reason, or two reasons, really - it's a foreign correspondent, so they always need to have a new topic to report home about and, Merkel had mentioned ventilation/Lüften recently, so it was on topic.

Even if it looks like a parody to a German, it is valuable to get an outside look at your own culture to bring a new perspective - I like that too. The article I read included the fact that many renting contracts have conditions about how often it should be ventilated.

If a Go or Rust library takes the time to offer a C-compatible interface (most don't), or you add one yourself, then you can invoke it via the anaemic, unsafe C ABI - no first-class objects, functions, or sum types, raw pointers everywhere. At that point it might as well be a C library, because any program that uses it is still inherently memory-unsafe.

I'm currently working to turn my hobby scraper into something profitable. "Working with strings" is already the least of my concern. I've spent most of the time with finding an architecture / file structure that allows me to

- quickly integrate new sources

I've feared it would be impossible to handle unexpected structural changes from a multitude of sources. Turns out that rarely happens. Like, once every x years per source's page-type.

I love using org mode but what I would really like is a thin GUI client which would keep me from making silly mistakes (such as deleting a heading line accidentally and leaving the orphaned content under a new heading), keep things visually separate, and help organize links between headings and tags.

All it takes is a diary of somebody making a voyage through these villages, and that surviving for centuries for them to be ‘known’ without, necessarily, having a good idea about where they were located (could be something like “two days east of x”, where the precise location of x isn’t known, ‘east’ is anything from north-east to south-east, and travel speed has to be guessed)

Alternatively, a tax record may just list names of villages. All you would know then is that they fell under a certain jurisdiction, whose borders may not have been clear even then.

"I don't understand why this seems crazy to anyone. "

? Because it's contagious and when cut loose cases literally widespread death, massive economic peril and joblessness ?

Why is that so hard to understand?

Do people not feel any responsibility for others they infect with potentially deadly pathogens that spread to large numbers of people?

We're not that hugely concerned about 'other people taking small risks' - the issue is the externalization.

Frat Houses can drink '24 beers' and visit the hospital, okay, 'it's their body' ... but the issue with COVID is mostly systematic.

We don't care that you as an individual want to bring 'Deadly Asian Wasps' into North America, it's not a big deal, but by introducing them, you'll cause calamity as they spread through the region causing mayhem. Or like setting a 'small fire' in a dry forest.

I'm struggling to understand how people think a their contagion is a 'personal choice'.

People who think about 'personal choice and living with the consequences' may want to contemplate the liability in such a situation: you hit someone's car - you owe them the repairs. Imagine if you had to pay for someone's healthcare if you were to 'infect them'. Instead of passing 'mask laws' maybe liability laws could be passed -> you infect someone, they sue you for $50-500K. We'd literally have to buy insurance for that, and one of the criteria for insurance would be 'mask wearing' - if you 'wear a mask' your 'infection liability insurance' premiums would be 1/2. It's obviously not going to work, point being it illustrates the systematic issue here, it's not 'personal risk taking'.
I find it quite a mental leap to go from "Microsoft improved connection scalability in Postgres" to "Microsoft is going to extinguish Postgres, arguably the most popular open-source database in existence".

JSON, YAML, or XML, it's all the same crap. The fact that programmers are feeling the need to externalise their business logic into "config" files is a sign that the language has failed. In a decent language you would write logic or "config" in the language itself, because the language would be a comfortable medium for expressing things (this is the norm in Python for example - while a few overengineered pieces insist on using TOML or something, most Python libraries don't require any separate config, you just "configure" them the same way you do the rest of your programming, in Python).
I think the idea of the 'Personal Computer' has been grossly warped over the past 20 years from a tool that primarily serves our personal goals to a 'Device' that's designed to serve the goals of a corporation. The general public has become 'ok' with the concept of paying for a premium for a device but not really owning it.
And that is why fail-safe is important.

Most older infotainment systems have a physical power switch which is a hard interrupt to power-off. It is in my view a design mistake to have full touch-screen interfaces on infotainment.

That's a great point - US overall looks like it's in a '3rd wave' but really, the 2cnd blip was due to different states hitting at different times.

However - if you break down by state - it looks fairly clearly that we are in a '2cnd wave' of a totally different kind: it's younger people driving the infections, and the case fatality rate is a lot lower.

He must be using a different RSS than me, because RSS for me is another endless feed.

If the answer is "you're not curating the list of people you follow well enough", then I don't see how RSS is different than any other network. Re: Twitter, is very common to hear people say "You have to curate your feed!", or "You have to use lists!". RSS is the same, if you subscribe to a handful of personal pages, then RSS will be nice. If you use RSS to subscribe to magazines, you're going to get a big list of articles. The same applies to FB or Twitter.

Realclimate is usually good (http://realclimate.org)
A system can have any number of states (variables that store energy). The output of that system is a combination of those states.

Some states can have slow dynamics, while other states have fast dynamics. Is is possible for a system to have chaos present only in the fast dynamics (weather in this case) and non-chaotic slow dynamics (climate).

And that's all there is to it.

Note that this does not mean that immunity is also fading. Antibodies don't exist all the time in the bloodstream: immunological memory (in the case of antibodies, in the form of memory B cells) is what can prompt a quick response in case of reinfection.

In fact, there isn't enough data to even know how long immunity is. And let's not get started with T cell immunity, which seems to play a role with this virus and is not touched by such a study.
I echo this. As a finn with norwegian friends it's the norwegians who are the most nature-loving and it is no suprise since their landscape makes it hard to ignore the elements, and easy to enjoy the views.

The finns probably share the extreme relaxation part of nature with swedes. Going to your cabin in the woods with family or friends and leaving your phone on the table to socialize or relax with those around you. A norwegian might like to "relax" by facing the elements and summiting a local mountain :)

Automotive engineers think about those things.

If that were a reliable safeguard, we wouldn't already have several examples about the behaviour of connected vehicles being compromised remotely in one way or another. Since unfortunately we do have such examples, evidently whatever is going on within the engineering groups at the auto manufacturers is not sufficient to ensure our safety and security in relation to these new generations of connected vehicles.

It's kinda bad, but fine if you have low latency from servers to DB.

And, if your other servers are very careful about not holding transactions open. That's a big one. You can't be sloppy and hang a connection open with transactions running. This is bad for slow languages where every transaction takes 10+ms.

And it's bad if your language doesn't support connection pools/threading.

In practice that means you can get full performance with fast threaded languages like Java, C#, Go, Rust that can use connection pooling. But performance will suffer if language is slow or doesn't have good enough threading to do connection pooling.

So yeah, it's a bad-ish design that works fine if you're using a fast threaded language. If you're trying to squeeze max performance out of Ruby or something you're going to be disappointed in other ways anyway
> Is this recommendation generally assuming that multiple applications will access the server

That's very often a reason to use external pools, yes. Or just think of a single web application that runs on multiple nodes to distribute the load on the application servers. You either carefully configure each connection pool or you use an external pooler to which each node connects to (rather than directly to the database)
