I was the target of one of these during a recent internal pen test and got caught in it, despite being very technically savvy and aware of “normal” phishing techniques.

The attack that was simulated in my case utilized convincing social engineering, spear phishing, domain spoofing, and malicious OAuth apps meant to look like an internal resource/service to gain access to sensitive material.

It was very sophisticated and I’m glad I fell for it during a simulation rather than in a “real life” situation. It was a learning experience and a situation I’m way more paranoid about now. I could easily see admins and developers anywhere falling for it if they were specifically targeted.
> What you're really saying is that there is election fraud and Biden's win is illegitimate.

I can't help it if five pieces of evidence lead you to that conclusion. But maybe now you can see why we think it is so important that people be allowed to make these allegations so they can be responded to, rather than suppressed and allowed to fester. If 5 pieces of evidence can suggest to you that the election was fraudulent and the President-elect is illegitimate, then can you imagine how much easier it is to persuade someone who isn't so firmly pro-Biden as yourself?

> Dude the courts looked at whatever "evidence" was presented and rejected it. Multiple times.

Actually a lot of those cases were dismissed for lack of standing. Evidence wasn't even presented.

> You should be banned from HN and I think that anyone who doesn't believe that the election was legitimate - i.e. that no meaningful fraud occurred - should be banned from the HN community.

This is how echo chambers are formed.

> Enough is enough. It's clearly dangerous to allow these views the shroud of legitimacy by giving them space in the public square. Otherwise HN is just enabling them.

Its probably more dangerous to allow them to be suppressed if in fact they are untrue. Now if they are true and you're saying that's what makes them dangerous, then I can understand why you would want them suppressed.

> You're acting exactly like one of those crypto-racists who knows that their true belief would be deemed unpalatable or unacceptable by the community so they'll blow as much smoke around as possible without ever stepping out to say what they're actually driving towards.

So you don't even think its possible in theory to be concerned about election integrity unless its for partisan reasons? That would explain a lot.

> You're full of shit and all this pseudo-philosophical pseudo-analytical pseudo-objective cant you're spewing is nonsense.

> Now fuck off.

I think statements like this are unhelpful and I'd suggest you examine your own emotional state and see why you feel so hostile to people you don't even know.

An evergreen germane to this point: http://johnsalvatier.org/blog/2017/reality-has-a-surprising-...

I do grant writing for nonprofits, public agencies, and some research-based businesses, and we get a fair number of calls from smart people who started with the best of intentions and then after a number of hours of struggle decided to seek aid.
You bring up a very good point and it's worth reiterating that the Kremlin reverted to use paper instead of computers to discuss sensitive topics. [1]

I wouldn't be surprised if any network connected device is vulnerable to being exploited, even if not directly connected to the internet, by association of other devices on the network.

I’ve continued to enjoy it for 10+ years (30+ if we’re talking generally and not just vim).
It would be interesting to try to quantify risk based on gender and assumed market bias.

My hunch is that the risk factor this introduces is at least an order of magnitude less significant than other risk factors, like having an appropriate go to market strategy or proper customer base research.
On the contrary, most major brands have announced new electric and/or plug-in hybrid cars coming out in the next 5 years. That includes all of the major German brands, along with Ford and GM. The Big 3 Japanese brands (Toyota, Honda, and Nissan) already have some and are planning to build more. Altogether, those brands account for most of the global auto market.
More and more countries, especially in Europe, are setting a deadline of 2030 for sale of new ICE cars. So the assumption sounds correct.

On the other hand Tesla market share of EV cars in Germany in 2020 is barely 12% (in terms of unit, certainly higher in EUR) [1]. I expect numbers to be worse in countries that favor smaller cars (France, for instance).

Most European auto makers are barely starting to release EV cars, and Tesla is already close to single digit market shares. They are here to stay, but like other US brands I don't think they have such a bright future outside of the US.

Yes, I definitely like being downvoted with no explanation for describing situations where I’ve felt personally endangered. Thanks HN commenters, glad you’ve got my back.

Edit: I know it’s frowned upon to complain about downvotes but give me a fucking break. I’ve been almost killed cycling perfectly safely in supposedly safe areas, both because of the design and because people have literally used their cars as weapons. If you want me dead because I don’t find that acceptable for my own transport, downvote away. If I’ve said anything else harmful to the discussion please have the decency to explain what it was.
It’s not like (most) cars will run over the bicycles and just keep driving.

If one is driving, and a bicycle runs the red light and jumps in front of them, they’ll hard brake (at least most of the people). This means they have a very high chance of being rear-ended by the next car, and if the driver is not very experienced, then can lost control and hit other lane / objects and people at the side of the road.

As a similar example, we don’t allow untrained and unprotected people into construction sites with heavy machinery. Saying “hey, let me walk under this pile driver, it is my life on the line!” isn”t going to cut it in the US.
I say taxes aren't necessary. Just hold companies accountable for every step in their manufacturing chain. They need to audit and ensure factories address meeting or standards for the workers.

I don't mean wages, I mean safety, overtime, etc. Labor needs to be valued at home and abroad.
The stock price increased by 15x in 1.5 years on basically no major news. If you don't include profits from regulatory credits, they've lost over $700M so far this year. Government money is not scalable or sustainable, so this an important indicator of how their finances are doing.

The intuition is that Tesla cars are like iPhones. I think it's wrong. This is a low-margin business, where you increasingly compete with all of the goods and services people buy, like housing, education, healthcare. It's not a "buy a new phone for Christmas every 2 years" business.

People are on the phone all the time, so paying $200 more for an improved experience for several hours per day is justified. But paying $5k or $10k more for an improved experience for 1 or 2 hours per day? If you're rich, maybe. If not, why not move closer to your work instead, so you don't have to use the car? Why not take a longer vacation, or eat out every day, or retire earlier, or pay for your kid's college education?

I've annotated the names with their meanings because I find them pretty interesting. In Chinese, names should not overlap (unlike most of the rest of the world, where names are chosen by picking from a list of common names, in China, names are chosen by picking a unique sequence of characters not used by anyone else you're aware of).

These names are all one-character long, rather than the standard two characters, and the surnames are some of the most common in China, so they end up having nonzero overlap.

That's a good point that I misunderstood.

I'd still find it somewhat problematic that they'd wait 2 hours before going to sleep, but not the "my god how did they not think of this" issue I thought it was
I feel like "The Morning Show", "For All Mankind", and "Ted Lasso" are 3 shows that I would put solidly in the "great" category so I don't see how you can say that two "good" shows would be an accomplishment.
I've never ever heard of that actually becoming a requirement.

What happens is that some managers really don't buy into the 20% concept, and don't provide time for it. Employees in those teams determined to do it anyway end up doing 120%.

There is absolutely no requirement at Google to put in time on a 20% project.

That said, what happens in practice is that 20% projects are the way that Google engineers are able to move across teams: You pick a team you want to join. You do something for that team as your 20% project with the goal of getting that manager to request your transfer to their team.

So if you're desperate to get off your team without quitting Google, you could get backed into committing 120%.
Cave Story comes to mind.

One dude did all the programming and art.

I wouldn't put too much weight on doing it alone though. I've hired various artists and contractors to assist in my game development. I'm also very liberal with buying Unity assets.

The Last Tree was made by one guy and is full of Unity Asset store art.

The only people who will even notice are other developers.

Honestly using Unity assets as a foundation has made me a much better developer. I'm always finding tricks I didn't know

At some places that is the culture, and I'll do it for a couple weeks during a crunch, but I refuse to do more than that. After a week or two your efficiency goes down incredibly unless it is "your baby" or your passion and it's basically "fun" for you. I've never had real fun working on someone else's baby. Burn out is a real thing. We didn't evolve to sit on our asses in front of computers 16 hours a day, it's a simple matter of biology. We are adaptable, but we're not that adaptable.
I don't get how Apple being a tech company has anything to do with this. If it was NBC making the show and Gawker outed the CEO of NBC does the New York Times think that the NBC CEO would act differently?
Makes sense. They could be the Apple of cars.
We started watching Episode 1 and I hated it and we turned it off. It turns out that the part that we were watching was the advertisement that was put together by the creator and it's supposed to be terrible. After watching it a bit longer, it hits its stride. It's not as good as "Ted Lasso" or even "For All Mankind", imo, but it's a decent comedy with some very self-aware humor.
My laptop and desktop are configured the same way. The only difference is that I use a logitech gaming mouse that supports both plugged and wireless connections, so the USB transfer is just my audio source. Its fairly easy to swap the USB cable, but I'm lazy and had dreamed of a device like this. Thanks for sharing.
Well, I think if you take that to the extreme you end up with totalitarian.
> That entity would be whoever owns those US dollar printing presses that are printing the dollars right now.

Except that most "dollars", or any currency for that matter, are not physical but rather digital values in a computer some place.

The modern "printing press" is a computer located at the central bank of the currency in question (Fed, ECB, etc).

(Technically most money is actually created by private banks through loans and entries in banks' ledgers.)
Big +1 for tldr from me. And the commands are effectively a wiki (or maybe it's stored in git). Anyway you can contribute to them.
How does ProcessHacker compare to Process Explorer? From my quick look, they appear to have mostly the same features.
This is really bizarre. MicroStrategy is a solid BI tool, it's been solid for a long time, and the company basically operates as a cash machine. This is when you start issuing a dividend. If the founder-CEO is bored, he should promote one of the many people who have made their careers at MicroStrategy and retire.

Instead, he's decided to use the existing business he founded decades ago as an outlet for his enthusiasm for Bitcoin. This is why God created activist investors, I think.
It’s not whataboutism — I'm disputing your implication that censorship is an illiberal exception to the norm. You would have the reader believe that there is a unique and notable paranoia surrounding accusations of white supremacy, when in fact it's a fairly typical manifestation of the proud American tradition of suppressing "problematic" viewpoints.
I’m going to call it as it is: sharrows are the answers from cities that simply don’t care about cyclists but want to “show they are doing something” to silence the complaints from what they think are niche groups.

My hometown (and where I work now) is in an LA suburb and it and two adjacent cities recently implemented their “master plan”, and what they ended up doing was making arterial roads with heavy auto traffic traveling at 45-50mph into Class III bike paths. How do you expect a cyclist to “share the road” with cars going 3-4x their speed, or encourage novice cyclists? I think they just added sharrows to the busiest roads in the city and called it a day.

The planners were clearly not cyclists, or more realistically with one of the cities I sent a complaint to, had their hands tied and couldn’t devise any other way to get cyclists safely from one side of the city to another due to the car-heavy infrastructure the city already had. “Bicycle boulevards” like I saw while living in Berkeley and Cupertino where there were literally roadblocks, bollards, and speed bumps installed would be laughed out here.

One city planner told me that city council just didn’t see it as a priority, and that the councilmen just thought cycling was a “recreational activity” and didn’t see it as a serious commuter activity even though the planner himself was a bike commuter. Meanwhile car traffic is getting progressively worse and traffic lights still aren’t timed properly.

Assuming your investment strategy is copying what worked in the past.
Outside of education (where your lobbyists can ensure they are required by all students), there really are very few use cases for a complex graphing calculator. If you have access to a computer, Octave, Maxima, and Python (or any non-free equivalent) will run rings around any graphing calculator. For field use, the only point in favor of a graphing calculator as opposed to a phone app seems to be ruggedness.
> on basically no major news

I think the evidence proves otherwise. It's the other automakers that have had no news.

1. They announced and are rapidly building a factory in China

2. They announced the Cybertruck, and are rapidly building a factory in Texas to build it.

3. They held "battery day" where they deep dived into how they're streamlining the production of cells to crack the $100/Kwh mark

4. Factory in China is now building over 20k vehicles/month.
The comment I replied to said:

> If you can identify an overlooked segment of founders, you can invest in that group and get industry beating returns.

I described a way that might be false. I did not make any moral claim, and certainly don't think that "actual sexism should take place during funding."

Please be more thoughtful yourself.
Aside from self-driving and software, electric cars are described as simpler devices than internal combustion engine (ICE) powered machines. Lower maintenance and all that. As simpler devices, building them should be something competitors are able to do.

Battery technology is also, of course, critical to get the right balance of price, range, charging speed, production numbers, etc.

So given global regulations putting pressure on industry conversion from ICE to electric powertrains, there is zero doubt that investments will be made by big players and they will have to stop playing games and putting out weird-looking vehicles they do not really intend to sell. This will have an impact on Tesla's presumed dominance of electric cars, but how much of an impact is hotly contested!
Perhaps if auto makers didn't program the check engine light to go off ever x amount of miles, people might like cars more.
Did McCarthyism ever really go away? Socialist is still a swear word in political circles of the US. It’s the main reason we don’t have universal health care - as soon as anyone mentions it they get branded as socialist or communist. It’s also why our airlines are so crappy - I’ve always thought that trains and planes out to be nation-state level prestige projects.

Few things:

1.) Make sure the thing you are procrastinating is something you _actually_ want to do. If I'm truly passionate about something, I don't generally find myself lacking in motivation (caveat below).

2.) Even for things I'm really passionate about, there are less interesting aspects of the work. My general strategy is to block off time (on my calendar) for 15 minutes a day doing X task. The following week I increase it to 30 minutes and so on so forth. Start out small so you guarantee success. Your brain will get addicted to it.

3.) Definitely make sure to only focus on one thing at a time. Your brain can only hold and retain so much information at a given point in time. Most ultra successful people focus on a singular area and go extremely deep on it. They don't move on from something until they've mastered it. Very similar to the concept of progressive overload in weightlifting.

How do you know? One of the reasons they're so insidious is that code that hits them tends to work fine until it gets compiled with a newer version of the compiler. E.g. signed integer overflow did exactly what you expect in most compilers until fairly recently.

>It's time to admit that computers connected to the internet can not be secured.

That ship sailed a long time ago.

It was normal back in the 1990s for InfoSec folk to assume that "if it's connected to the Internet, eventually, it will be compromised."

The goal (then, as now) is to implement layered (defense-in-depth) mechanisms to deter such activities -- at perimeters, network and systems infrastructure platforms and software implementation.

This is (and has been for a long time), a well-defined, although usually poorly (if at all) implemented set of processes and procedures.

The levels of complexity for Internet resources have vastly increased over the past 25 years. Info Security techniques have advanced as well, but again are often poorly or not at all implemented.

However, far too many organizations implement a "Skittles" type defensive posture rather than defense-in-depth posture.

There are a variety of reasons for this:

1. Those responsible are ignorant of good security practice;

2. Those responsible are aware of the risks, but ignore it as it negatively impacts profit;

3. Those responsible are aware of the risks, but implement inadequate defenses because of the impact on time-to-market and/or profit.

4. But the most egregious offenders are software developers, who often just bolt on weak security measures or just ignore security altogether, rather than design with security as a primary consideration.

There are other reasons, but those are the big ones, IMHO.
