I do teach at high school level and, in general, I am unimpressed by what the current generation of education tech brings to the table. Most of them do the same stuff as the tools available 15-20 years ago (Microsoft Office, Skype, Moodle), only more clumsily/slowly and with more dependencies.

If school administration were to save money using subsidized Chromebooks, they could save even more money by stubbornly remaining in the paper age. Teachers would be happier too, and students would at the very least be not worse off; I am even willing to say that they would be forced to learn analog skills that are desperately needed nowadays.

In short, I do not buy that it is lack of options that force schools to buy those products. It is the evil wizardry called "Marketing" that bewitch school administrators and prevent them to see the options in front of their noses.
Xiaoice doesn't have a male personality AFAIK, so heterosexual women probably use it for different emotional needs than heterosexual men.
> If someone opened a video store in our city with videos of people's underaged kids

Comparing to Reddit though, I think it's fairer to say something like 'if someone opened a cafe where paedophiles liked to hang out and chat'.

Yes you'd absolutely expect police might visit in plain clothes to try to eavesdrop, or even raid the cafe, or whatever, but generally assuming there's no reason to suspect the cafe owner's involvement they'd do so minimising disruption to the business so far as reasonable/practical.
Text only posts were launched after subreddits. That has lead to some of the best parts of reddit.
Yep, but losing access to my emails isn't that big of a deal, losing access to my email address is much worse. Especially since it's also my login on a lot of other services.
Reddit's video player more or less does not work
Certainly not all of those, but a fair number of those are supported on GameRanger. Battlefield 2, for example. They do still kill games, no denying that, and their track record with MMO's is terrible, but comparing the number of old EA games you can still play on GameRanger with the back catalog of a publisher like Ubisoft, EA has WAAAAY more old games still playable online with GameRanger.

Again, it's not a complete solution, butit seriously supports the vast majority of popular old EA games. Yeah, it doesn't support Monopoly for Wii... but for PC games it's the tits.
Here is an article on Covid vaccines, and the second link is from its references, and explains lipid nanoparticles used in these vaccines. Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines use lipid nanoparticles and are very similar in their designs.

If 'wanting' and 'liking' can be dissociated, what are the methods for changing the stimulus that results in the 'wanting'?
We certainly are not. The thing about Malthus is that he was wrong.

Birth rates are below or barely above replacement level in most of the world anyway, the only place with high birth rates is Africa and they’re not listening to you.
See idiocracy for a cheeky take on this idea.
How about we fix the underlying problem: how to earn money without advertising? The issue right now is that subscribing to 100s of different services is both annoying and expensive. What if you could subscribe to a single service, which then would compensate the different services you use based on how much you use them? Sort of like how Spotify compensates artists based on number of listens. Quite easy to solve technically I think, but of course hard to solve socially.

Dirt Rally, the rally sim, definitely is a smaller niche and the only one of its genre still under active development.

The rest of the Dirt series, which don't AFAIK share the physics engine with Dirt Rally, is much more mainstream.

Although I can't guess what the market size is for a racing game these days.

What professionally inappropriate information do you have published about you by academic institutions and former places of work, or alternatively by you in your masters thesis?

I am not a proponent of "if you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to fear" (quite the opposite, in fact), but disclosure of your information under academic and professional context is not only unavoidable, but actually beneficial. As long as the information is reported honestly, it serves as a public record of your positive reputation. This allows all the participants of the job ecosystem to make better decisions about hiring/accepting job offers, because it reduces the risk of the unknown. It's to be embraced, not avoided.
I'm saying people do not like it when I interact with women in the real world so in their view it would be a good thing if porn were to prevent me from doing so

There's no such thing as 'impossible to censor'. It may eb 'hard to censor', perhaps even 'impractical to censor', but a powerful enough government will be able to censor anything it wants. Do your think that, if people started somehow publishing 'bad' stories about the CCP in the bit coin block chain, the CCP wouldn't act to remove that content or censor any acces to the block chain itself?
> the FIFA-ization

For those of us who so far preferred wheels to legs: what's ‘the FIFA-ization’? Just so we know what to expect.
Hm, we have multiple layers of protection of different kinds there, since defense should always be in depth.

First off, I'm pushing the principle that secrets should only be issued, created, stored and distributed by the secret management system, vault in our case. If you never see a secret, and only instruct the automation how to handle it, it is much harder to leak the secret. Ideally, in production, no human should ever need to see or access the secret.

Second, you should have good rotation procedures. Something will eventually leak, or someone will leave on bad terms and you need to be able to handle that. This can be simple - an HA infra service can just reload the core credentials from vault and be done, or somewhat harder, e.g. if customers need and use those passwords.

And finally, you should have entropy scanners like trufflehog or github scanners as linked in other tools - both in you precommit hooks (so you cannot commit the secret) as well as in your CI & repository host, so someone who disabled the security scanner "because it was annoying" still gets caught.

And I guess finally, whiskey for that friday evening someone still manages to leak something important. Some terminations at work have not been fun.
Using an external config source helps. It's harder to accidentally check in 'secrets.json' than an API key in code.

If GP had used the word "mindset" instead of "camp", would you feel better? Their point is still valid, you're the one framing things here.

You're right that there's a lot of dubious claims out there, and yes there are plenty of examples of overreactions, but it's easy to overcorrect no matter which "side" you lean.

Now explain to me though, if this isn't a "camp" thing, why is it nearly always the case with americans that one political side is claiming the virus isn't dangerous, and one is claiming that it is?

Given the timing of the NSA announcement that Russian intelligence was actively exploiting the VMware-related CVE-2020-4006 just a couple of weeks before the Fireeye and .Gov announcements, I'm wondering if that was the source of the intrusion.

The platform in question handles mobile device management, identity brokering, and mobile email management, among other things. It would certainly align with the reports about Treasury and other departments having email compromised.

Doing defer in a loop is usually a bug in your Go code. Sure there are legit use cases of it, but in ~90% of the time what you really want to do is (in Go, I haven't used C recently so not sure how to do lambdas correctly):

for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
func(i int) {
defer foo(i)
// other code
}(i)
}
Joseph Kennedy did not make his fortune from bootlegging. That's an urban legend, presumably begun by contemporary detractors. He did make some moves in the liquor business when it became evident prohibition was about to end, but that wasn't where most of his money came from either. He was an investor in stocks, commodities, real estate, and movie studios.
Based on committee discussion, I think it is unlikely we will attempt to capture the values. The capture will most likely be done by reference.

This case of the defer in the loop is frequently cited, probably because it is a problematic case. However, I looked at a lot of real code and the only case I found of resources being allocated in a loop they were allocated at the beginning of the loop and deallocated at the end. Another option we are considering is to use the scope for the guarded block. In this case, deferred statements would be executed at the end of each iteration of the for loop which would be ideal for this sort of code. For example, you could rewrite this function using defer:

https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/a829b735b645516041b5...

like this:

for (;;) {
raw = 0;
ptype = 0;
i = PEM_read_bio(bp, &name, &header, &data, &len);
defer {
OPENSSL_free(name);
name = NULL;
OPENSSL_free(header);
header = NULL;
OPENSSL_free(data);
data = NULL;
}
...
} else {
/* unknown */
}
} // end for loop, run deferred statements
I think people just find it disingenuous to re-purpose a famous quote so that it means something other than what the original author intended.

To reuse your example: does the idea of an authoritarian figure quoting 1984 not seem shady and manipulative to you? Clearly the ideas contained in the original work were very anti-authoritarian, regardless of whether Orwell's words can be twisted or taken out of context to imply something else.

This compares a desktop Ryzen with macbook Intel and macbook/mac-mini M1. Thermal design of the laptops likely plays a large role in the benchmark results.
Payment processors that large should be considered utilities at this point.

They are not official police but they do some sort of moral police to the businesses they don't like. Their antics and policies are mostly unclear and seem random.

Today they block a porn site tomorrow they block you - and what can you do?

Just like you cannot do business without a bank account, you cannot host a site without a payment processor. If the business is legal: then the processor should be forced to support it. If the business is illegal - then it is the prosecutors' and police job to close it.

As usual this censorship is explained "as made for the good of children".
Average cost of acre of farm land in US: $3160

Average cost of a cheap warehouse in US (this is being generous as the cost is likely far higher for a vertical farm) $20 square ft [1]

Thus, Land/building cost standard farming method: $3160 per acre[2]

Land/building cost of equivalent vertical farm: $871200 per acre

Which is 275x higher. Once again, using warehouse costs is being generous to vertical farms. It's likely more than $20/sq f to commission a vertical farm.

What ever land use benefits of vertical farming are at the very least partially offset by the fact it requires a building, which has it own set of ecological impacts.

It's very hard for me to imagine any amount of bullet points to make up for 275x+ increased land/build cost. But if there was a market, it's probably in high end organic stuff for well-to-do people, rather than the a case of then technological wizardry feeding the masses.

Crunchyroll at least needed a team of translators to create subtitles for Naruto (and other anime circa the mid 00s). That is to say: Crunchyroll may have copyrihgt-infringed upon anime, but they added value. Naruto and Shippuden never would have found a subtitled audience without that team of translators. (And the English dub was relatively low quality back then, believe it)

I'm not sure how Youtube or Pornhub adds value to the content.

Lift off oversteer can be done in FWD cars too - its just another variation on a clutch kick/handbrake/sharp steering input/whatever to lose traction to start the slide. I think we can likely all agree the finer points of managing oversteer is a little beyond scope of this discussion!

Chances of you driving anything today without ESC/DSC/etc (whatever your manufacturer labeled it) on really rare too unless you decided to turn it off, especially if it's only driving the rears. ESC is incredibly effective even on 20 year old cars.
Note that Pornhub was not convicted, or even legally accused of violating any law. They were just financially deplatformed.

The tool that was compromised is a SolarWinds product, Orion. Orion is essentially a network configuration manager. It allows you to collect data about your network switches, including pushing and pulling configs. You can back them up and diff the configs as well. It is not inherently a checkbox product, but it could be. In many cases this could be a really useful product.
At some point Process Explorer started recording the CPU/memory usage graphs for a process only the moment you opened the details window for that particular process for the first time.

So even if Process Explorer had been running in background all the time, you could no longer inspect a process's CPU/memory usage history after the fact if you hadn't by chance already opened its details window before.

As the last version (I might have even asked on the forum about it, but never got a definitive response whether this was intentional or a bug) of Process Explorer that didn't exhibit this annoying new behaviour stopped working after switching to Windows 10, I switched to ProcessHacker at that point.

I've initially missed Process Explorer's miniature system information diagrams in the toolbar a little, but otherwise I've been happy with ProcessHacker.
Agree, but comparing a desktop class processor that was released 1.5yrs ago that at minimum was taking 100W or more to compute is still very eye-opening in seeing how far processor technology has come in such a short time.

There was a case where we were able to gain access to Jira instance belonging to a bug bounty target (not even a Red Team engagement), and the Confluence wiki had every credential the company ever used. They used it as a secure credential storage. Majority of their internal panels didn't have a 2FA and we found internal VPN server credentials too (which didn't have source ip restrictions), so we could freely access tons of data. The bounty we got was around $1000 if I could remember, I think this would motivate a lot of hackers to not go the responsible disclosure way, as the incentives are ridiculously low.

But I could access literally everything related to that organization and their clients from that single Github leak (of Jira creds).
Ryzen 4000 is a mobile processor. Ryzen 5000 would likely fare better, but it is hard to acquire right now. Even then, it will be a process node behind the M1 (TSMC 7nm vs 5nm) so I suspect the battle for the fastest core will be heating up into next year.

edit: ah, I suppose the M1 is also a mobile processor. Having one myself (in the form of a Mac Mini,) it’s easy to forget...
