>my gripe is that they are implying, like every other company that gets breached, that only a nation-state has the resources to pull off such an attack with their wording.

I feel that with respect to FireEye, that it isn't just an implication; more that they would claim this with strong evidence. They are about attribution.

I think this argument is making some false equivalence. Just because every other company that was breached (e.g. Equifax) claims "Wow State Actor Sophisticate Beyond Anything Before Seen By Man" for something as simple as failure to update your software leaves a yawning hole has tarnished the dialog for those who know what they are doing.

While CSO at Relativity, and now for my clients, I strongly suggest that you don't use the phrase "Security is Very Important to us" since that is the first thing out of the mouth of companies who didn't until they got hacked.

>Do you think a penetration test of 3 engineers working fulltime for a year would fail to materially breach FireEye's corporate systems?

Bluntly, yes. I expect that their defenses are much better than most companies, including security companies.

>I have literally never heard of a single person in enterprise security who has ever dared to make such a remark on the record

Enterprise security is in a different category altogether. Few non-security enterprises will withstand much of an attack. FireEye is in a different category altogether.

If you are interested in the topic, a useful book to read is https://www.amazon.com/Incident-Response-Computer-Forensics-.... I think this is more informative than these BOEC cost calculations.
I'm unironically inclined to agree with it, but I'd be interested in reading a more substantial refutation.
Ask HN: Any other language than JavaScript using prototypal inheritance?
Just wondering if prototypal inheritance is a specific thing of Javascript, or if it's just the most famous language implementing this paradigm, as I couldn't find any other one after some research
It was thrown away because apparently everyone disagrees about what “evil” is. Congress brings tech ceos and then subjects them to partisan grilling where every action is alternately praised and condemned depending on party.
Houdini is one of the potential game changers out there. I'm watching the spec progressing and the implementations getting ready for years. Its amazing, but its another step of turning every website into an application, i.e., requiring JS.
This doesn't make any sense. Why is the quality of life poorer in California compared to Texas when California has: Better schools across all grades, better universities and better weather? Perhaps there are other factors? Do demographics play a role perchance?

From Wikipedia:

1) According to 2018 US Census Bureau estimates, California's population was 59.5% White (36.6% Non-Hispanic White), 14.7% Asian, 13.8% Some Other Race, 5.8% Black or African American, 0.8% Native American and Alaskan Native, 0.4% Pacific Islander and 5.1% from two or more races.

2) According to the 2018 US Census Bureau estimates, the population of Texas was 73.5% White (41.4% Non-Hispanic White and 32.1% Hispanic White), 12.3% Black or African American, 5.0% Asian, 0.5% Native American and Alaskan Native, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 6.0% Some Other Race, and 2.7% from two or more races.

Texas is still predominantly white. I'm wondering if that is the unstated preference here.
> For example, to this day I do not recommend being openly gay and living near Tyler.

> If someone moved to Texas, they made a choice to accept it and I will not knock people for their individual choices.

Sucks if you're gay and are born near Tyler. In case others will knock you for something that wasn't even a choice to begin with.

But that is just managerial incompetence and the inability of the devs in question to push back against that managerial incompetence.
Sure you did.

You also took everything the Trump legal team said at face value without a single iota of criticality.

Because if you didn't, you would have never mentioned those mail-in ballots. There were over 3 million ballots requested for the general election in PA. PA, by the way, is a state that did not allow for mail-in ballots to be counted until the in-person elections were finished. Georgia was another. Both of them have Republican legislatures.

I'm sure you also took at face value the testimony of that drunk temp worker who complained about not getting enough to eat and then amending it with claims of pollbook issues. So much more believable than the Republican and Democrat poll observers who were there the entire time to watch each vote get counted.

There isn't a state or precinct anywhere on the planet that does real time vote updates. They do them in batches. It's why a state can lean a certain way and analysts are still confident they will go in a different direction: large population centers take more time to count, and in this case the votes were segregated due to a court order, so they couldn't even mix those ballots up in PA.

The rest of us can't help it if you're willing to swallow a conspiracy theory because the candidate you support lost. We can't even really be bothered with it. The Republican legislatures will do a couple of things to assuage your hurt feelings, and then they'll move on to the next thing on their agendas.

As for your threats of violence, nobody cares. You can deal with the US military after Jan 20th if you're that angry about the election. I'm sure they'll be responsive to your feelings.
2018 study Energy compensation in response to aerobic exercise training in overweight adults [1] and 2020 study Incentive sensitization for exercise reinforcement to increase exercise behaviors [2].

My key takeaway is that we consume up to 1000 kcal per week to compensate for exercise but not more and that the mechanism works through appetite hormones like leptin [3]. This is a good reference point but I suspect the results don't mesh with the studies on insulin sensitivity, high-intensity interval training, and oxidative stress. There is probably a more optimal workout strategy in terms of time and frequency to achieve the same health benefits but perhaps this is an optimal weight loss strategy.

>State personal income taxes are based on your legal domicile

Not in CA. The determination of your residency status for CA tax purposes is based on much more than just your legal home address. And even if you are classed as a nonresident, you still pay CA taxes on any income earned due to work in CA.

Texas and CA do not have any reciprocal tax agreements.

Source: live in Texas, travel for work a lot all over the country, including many months spent in CA, have had to file many income tax returns and determine residency status with the state of CA for exactly this purpose.

One tend to think that what is good/bad for one will be like that for everyone. In this case, stopping misinformation, is better for the average citizen and then better for the society.
Yes, it was notable that merely advocating crimes against humanity (shooting refugees) wasn't enough, and finally libelling a blogger who managed to crowd fund a lawsuit silenced her. Just like Alex Jones.
Maybe for that one platform on this one issue. It wouldn't prevent the major networks from repeatedly spreading misinformation, nor on unidentified issues. I remember for years the major networks were stating that the gender wage gap was the difference between a man and a woman in the same job with all else being equal. Yet the BLS study they were getting the numbers from show a fundamentally different issue.

YouTube can censor whatever and however they want. I just don't see this as making much of an impact either way.
One of the local news stations uses them on their website. They have a tiny "continue without supporting us" link that blends in nicely with the text around it. The weird thing is I always see that link while my wife never does. I don't mean she can't find it; it simply isn't there. This is using Chrome on Android. No root or anything special. Doesn't matter if her phone is on wifi or mobile. On the other hand, I see that link every time. It's been that way for about a year and I have never been able to figure it out -- although admittedly, I haven't tried that hard.
Well, they shouldn't be. You don't just complain and bitch. You won't solve anything like that. And I'm not talking about Americans here, that applies to everybody.

Tantrums are OK when you're a kid, once you grow up you're expected to do better.

I doubt MLK would object to the marginalization of Alex Jones. Certainly modern racial justice advocates are, by and large, not clamoring for his restoration. But, we can't know for sure, and, regardless, his hypothetical opinion on this question doesn't matter very much to me.
> If Biden gets certified ... you'll see massive violence from the far-left and the media will blame it on right wing conservatives.

From the far left? Why? What's your rationale for claiming that they would instigate violence?

I think they were implying that when people advocate for censorship, they seem to be the ones that have a very secure concept on "the truth," when in reality there is no such thing.

For example, there HAS been voter fraud uncovered this election, because there is voter fraud EVERY election. The question is one of magnitude. Has the Trump administration been able to provide evidence sufficient to actually change the result of the election? No. Most conservative pundits I have seen are extremely clear about this distinction. But is this going to ban them discussing it, or discussing new evidence that is being brought forward?

As other users have mentioned, this country went through 3 years of hearing about Russian collusion during an investigation that ultimately provided no evidence of that having been an issue capable of unseating the president or delegitimizing that election. Throughout that period, I didn't hear any arguments saying that discussion of that topic should have been censored, and that is a good thing.
Normally with a higher property tax and a lower budget (former NH resident here).
It is so strange to me specifically because the cohort that seems to be eating this up(my parents age, I mean) were the same ones telling me NOT to believe anything I read on the internet when I was young and the internet was new.

What happened?
It’s a fact that a lot of people believe the misinformation. I don’t understand what’s so remarkable about pointing this out.
Can you explain what you think this means?
It's not a purity test. To be more clear, the New York Times is left for the media, but (like our entire government-corporate-media complex) center-right of public opinion.

They beat the drums of war for Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as every other imperialist act of war that the US dreams up, breathlessly reports the opinions of the NSA, CIA, and FBI as fact, and generally shills for the corporate-backed opinions of both political parties.

Poll after poll after poll shows these positions to be out of touch with the average American.

The fact that the NYTimes sides more with rich, hypercorporate big-govt Dems more than rich, hypercorporate big-govt Republicans is all part of the charade of choice between the two sides.
It's even worse than you describe. Hyperbole is being flagged as "disinformation" or "lies". All the nuance of human communication is being squeezed into a lowest-common-denominator straight-jacket, based on what's easiest to censor. And the "progressives" are the cheerleaders this time. It's depressing.
Battery backed flash sounds like a huge PitA to deal with though. Where do you even get that?
It's a private company. If you don't like their slant, use another private company.

I swear, it's like people have never had to cancel a newspaper subscription before.
Isn't that incompetence too?
If he only won 51.3% of the vote then a 50/50 like/dislike sounds rather representative actually, much more so than likes/dislikes on Youtube usually are.
Not really what I'm thinking, I see these attempts at funding maintainers pop up each year and I think they all share the same problem and take the wrong approach.
This doesn't seem related to apt vs yum, rpm etc. but more to replacing essential dependencies by third-party versions. What happens if one uses the same kind of hacks on CentOS? Does it handle these better?
Except it didn't:

"Special counsel Robert Mueller did not find evidence that President Trump's campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election, according to a summary of findings submitted to Congress"
Censor what exactly? YouTube is a platform, not a person. YouTube is the one censoring other people.
That article is horrifying. If you meant to show that ass "texas getting better" then I hate to see how bad it was before this.
> That was not helped by the motto of the 90s, when the 'glory' was to become "a company without factory"...

Was that so silly? AMD seems to be doing alright.
Taken in context "the truth" in quotes is alluding to the large number of people in the US who genuinely believe that the election was stolen, not the commenter's personal stance.
I highly doubt any of those factored into Elon Musk's decision.
Are Servers Next for Apple?
Could Apple enter the sever market? What is stopping them? The competition from Amazon Graviton2, Ampere and other ARM manufacturers. What makes a good server CPU?
The "ideas" of Alex Jones and Milo are very much alive and well.
"there where levelling meetings where more senior mangers / hr fiddled the figures to hit the desired pay quanta" That's just business. They need to make the budget. There's not an indeterminate amount of money available so it needs to level out among all the employees.

And yes, achieving "Significantly exceeds expectations" implies some level of walking on water, and is the top 1-2% of the company. This isn't the same as school grades where anything less than an A means you're doing something wrong.

Annual reviews are some of the worst time to get pay raises because of these constraints. Finding ways to get "out of cycle" raises/promotions is much better.
The American media accurately described Barrett's publicly stated opinion on religious issues and abortion.
The worse aspect in my mind is that when you install a new service, it will start with the default configuration before you have a chance to configure it.
They said "widespread fraud or errors", which you've misinterpreted as anything that's not "100% error free". These are two very different goal posts.
Does it have visible inequality?

I've never been there.
If we take that position then how is that reconcilable with democracy?
A point of clarification.
ASML does lithography, which creates the patterns for the chips. The big players in etch (removing layers of material following the pattern) are Lam Research and Applied Materials, both American companies.
Yes! The courts do. And this is going to court now. Google is not and should not be the arbiter of truth.
You have the potential of getting only curated information any time you only use one source for that information.
People who see other people as incapable of judging for themselves somehow never count themselves into this category. This is a definite turning point towards more and more content curation and away from being a platform, lets just hope other p2p projects fill that void and that Youtube loses its legal protections based on its status as a platform.
The point as I took it had nothing to do with the First Amendment legally applying to Youtube. Simply to do with the importance of freedom of expression (which of course does apply to Youtube), as exemplified in the First Amendment.
I think the principle is a little different, it's more a question of at what point do you reign in potentially inflammatory arguments. It's not all disproven arguments: for example, there hasn't been a big push to silence people who insist the Earth is flat, as the potential for harm stemming from that kind of nonsense is limited.
Also, and this is why you pay Red Hat specifically: Having easy access to the developer that compiled a package, made a particular design decision for the OS, etc.
Dogs used to be predatory pack animals, they instinctually mask their smell so that any prey downwind wouldn't be alerted to their presence.

I used to have herding dogs and they loved to roll in cow dung. One of my current dogs appears to like to roll in dead worms at the park.
Technically that was an "electric car" subsidy, not a Tesla subsidy. But I am pretty sure the lion share of those 200,000 cars were Teslas judging by whose driving in the carpool lane with single occupancy, so it's probably fair to say it was a de facto Tesla subsidy. But do we really blame Tesla for other manufacturers not being able to take advantage? That seems a bit unfair too.

If you want to do things, it is easier in Texas. That's a general statement, and I mean it generally. It isn't just taxes. There is friction on everything you try to do in California. Life is easier and happier without it.

Stop worshiping these websites like they are the only things on the internet that matter. It's ok if stuff gets removed from YouTube, it's one website and it's not obligated to host your HD videos for free for any reason. Get over it. Pay for the hosting if you want to project controversial content on the internet that people don't want to host for free.
Remember about this when the usual "Google blocked my Gmail" post happens here. Interact with content like this on Youtube and you would risk losing your whole Google account.

Ah, the myth of the perfect programmer.

> Yet, at the same time, there are other people that will watch it and 100% believe it

When has that ever not been the case? Fortunately there are natural barriers preventing most people with wild ideas from gaining enough support to be a detriment to society. Should I really care if someone else chooses to believe x, y, or z in the face of contradictory evidence? If they try and do something public with a wrong idea, their failure will be the teacher, not me.
Sure, but are they publishers, or hosters? Isn't that the whole CDA Section 230 debate? Either be an impartial host (other than legal requirements) or be a publisher with all the trappings that come with that.
It's all about the tax evasion: "If he remained in California, he’d be facing income taxes on the profits when he exercises (stock options). In Texas, there is no income tax."
I don't really care if you believe me. There are other people in this very thread talking about Airpods terrible automatic switching behavior, and many people talking about the exact same seamless automatich switching that the Jabra provide. But you can keep sticking your head in the sand and ignoring it if you want. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm a bit confused by the about and usage page. Is this natively supported in Blink and you need the Javascript to polyfill other browsers, or do you always need their JS library to use this type of CSS?

Kelly was discussing that this morning on the radio still had it pending at SCOTUS. They believe it may be merged with the Texas case.

So, unless I'm missing something, the former comment appeared correct.
It was just an off-hand joke and readers are not peers in the sense they are the people who are not familiar with the content of the book.
> So the US election was 100% error free?

I think you're willfully misreading in order to score some rhetorical point, but just in case:

Read that as "widespread (fraud or errors)". No one is alleging that the election was error-free, only that it was free from widespread error.
Youtube's content delivery algorithm is also a kind of nanny, don't you think?

Only if everybody you come into contact with has been vaccinated. In the meantime, the vaccine might just be turning you into an asymptomatic carrier.
I am from Texas and currently live in Austin, but I also had the opportunity to live in many places in the world (Bay Area, China, Singapore, and Norway) spread out over a decade.

As much as I have admired and enjoyed many of those places, I always knew I would come back to Austin. The quality of life you get here, all things considered, simply cannot be beat.

After I graduated from school in the Bay Area (circa 2005), I recommended to many friends in high-tech to move to Austin. Most said no, for many reasons. Fast forward to today, and many of those individuals have made the move or are thinking to do so at this point. It is for the same reasons: cost of living, raising a family, space to build, etc. I welcome their arrival and hope they take the time to learn about the city and what makes it special.
They didn't count app/twitter or other views. So you are measuring two different datasets.
This seems evil.
Youtube suffers from the same pitfalls as FB: they actively promote tinfoil hat content, by design, because it makes money.

Removing individual videos is a red herring. They will persist to profit from promoting conspiracy content, and so they will. Cherry-picking a few things will just make this worse.

They're going this direction to pay lip service while avoiding changing their algorithms. Fuels the fire.
If you mean 2008, yeah, you're right, but those were mostly loans to relatively low income people buying homes, not loans against billionaires' unrealized capital gains.
Also quite a lot of scientific lasers are from Toptica.

Translation: Youtube employees became jealous of the truth-labeling employees of twitter, and management gave them the same powers.
