My friend and I would team up. He would fly with the joystick and operate trigger weapons. I would run the missiles and other keyboard systems. We'd also track system to system trading with notes, etc. Much debate on which missions to choose. Those were good times. We'd play for literally days, leaving only for food (we were old enough that we were independent enough to get away with this but young enough to have nothing else to do).

We've had years of Obama administration policies specifically designed to prevent enforcement actions against minority students on the grounds of such enforcement being racist. The system is in perfect alignment with the incentives given to it. The problem is that those incentives sometimes lead to outcomes like the case we are discussing.

A new administator or new system with the same incentives is likely going to give the same results.

We've got some information on the timeline (and a name) on one of the major exploits here:

https://proxylogon.com/

Some of the detail on where this is a mess -

The relevant security update is only offered for the latest (-1) Cumulative Update for Exchange. So you can open Windows Update and it will say "fully updated and secured", but you're not. Complicating matters, Cumulative Updates for Exchange 2019 have to be done from the licensing portal, with a valid logon.

So maybe you have a perfectly capable 24x7 tech team, but the guy who manages license acquisition is on leave today. This is how you may basically find yourself resorting to piracy to get this patched.
1. Find approximate geographic location (whatismyip.com, traceroute, a couple pings to nearby datacenters)

2. Do a speedtest

3. Add location and speed to remote desktop access marketplaces on darknet

4. Collect passive income from renters looking for clearnet computers in certain areas to use.

Often times all the known VPN IP addresses are polluted - even their "dedicated residential IPs" and this can ensure you have worse treatment on the internet, such as more captchas, outright bans, inability to use streaming services, and for actual criminals it means their stolen credit cards don't work. But with remote desktop marketplaces, you can find a computer near the postal code of the credit card you have and this ensures your online transactions go through. Obviously not "you" as you don't have to care what the people do on the other side of your tollbooth. Since you weren't the one compromising anything (computer, credit card, any actual spending) you'll be fine, but you're also going to do all this over Tor anyway. But because you'll be fine you don't have to worry about being detected due to some flaw in Tor because you won't have triggered a criminal investigation, the actual hackers and skimmers and thieves will have though, and incurred all the liability for themselves, people who will have paid an address on a darknet marketplace in Monero and gotten temporary access to a server.

"The broken blade on the Pratt & Whitney engine had been used on 2,979 flights since its last inspection in 2016, the NTSB said. At the time, similar blades were required to be inspected every 6,500 flights. The NTSB believes the failed blade then sheared off part of an adjacent fan blade. After the Feb. 20 incident, Pratt & Whitney called for inspections every 1,000 flights."

Gosh, I guess everyone underestimated how often we need to inspect the fan blades. I wonder why that happened?

Not unreasonable at all.

A rough way to think about a tool like Coq or Isabelle is that it provides a very simple core foundation built out of some mathematical logic and mechanisms for manipulating statements in that logic ("if P implies Q, then X"). Proofs end up being sequences of applications of rules that manipulate the statements until you reach some conclusion. People build up theories on top of this core (and other theories), which introduce new mathematical constructs and theorems/lemmas that represent their properties.

A computer algebra system (CAS) tends to have a more complex core because instead of only having some logic as its basis, it might know about higher level constructs like polynomials and such. This allows it to more easily operate on those constructs directly via specialized algorithms and heuristics without having to build up a huge foundation of theories that they live on top of.

That said, you could implement lots of things a CAS does in a theorem prover - it just would probably be pretty awkward to work with, and possibly quite slow. Similarly, lots of CAS tools (like Mathematica and Maple) provide features for doing proofs that are similar to theorem provers. One place I would expect those to differ though is that the small, simple core of a theorem prover allows people to careful verify it such that the theories atop it inherit the verification evidence of the core. I do not know if any such verification evidence exists when it comes to the large kernels that make up tools like Mathematica/Maple.
Freaking Utwig, man. I never had a really good answer to an Utwig with a skilled pilot. I would just throw ships at it in melee and expend way more than the "points" the Utwig ship is worth.
The specific method doesn't really matter, the base idea is to emerse your brain into what you want to learn, don't overdo it(take breaks, as many, as long as you need to), but definitely take every chance you can for repetition and reinforcement.
To clarify a few ideas:
- emerse(as opposed to passively observe) means that you actually do some mental work, if it feels too easy, you're underestimating yourself
- overdoing/breaks: things will not stick as well if your mind becomes tired/foggy. Find the times you have the most excitement to learn. Also do your best to create that excitement(sleep, food, exercise, self-treats)
- repetition & reinforcement: things sticks to your mind after repeated active exposure; recalling them is relatively easier than learning, so try to sprinkle throughout your day a question or two about things you've "already learned" and when you stop making mistakes you can start cycling out those questions, don't add new things faster than you can cycle them out

Perhaps you now see in what specific ways the practices you mentioned might help you. Be creative with them make it fun and enjoyable

P.S. your associative memory doesn't discriminate, try not to mix your learning with things you don't want to pop in your mind later e.g. learning another languager, baby screaming from the other room, stress, etc.

> What would an algorithm’s accuracy be when distinguishing between faces of people of the same age, gender, and ethnicity? To answer this question, classification accuracies were recomputed using only face pairs of the same age, gender, and ethnicity

Perhaps I am reading this wrong, but this is not controlling for demographics. If, for example, 70% of older white men are conservative, you could reach 70% accuracy by predicting all older white men are conservative.

Yes, it's much better than a coin flip, but random 50/50 guessing would be a ver bad strategy.

It's really a shame that they did not have humans and their system classify the same out-of-sample data so we could compare apples to apples. Perhaps they will in later research.
Bill Title: Relating to the censorship of users' expressions
That is only accurate if they can provide a meaningful defense against expected attacks otherwise all you are doing is creating a single central target. Unfortunately, the cloud providers can not mount even a token defense against an attacker funding an attack at the $100M level, so I see no reason to assume they can defend against credible threats to a single Fortune 500 company given that they can not even stop an attack with such a meager amount of resources allocated to it relative to the size of a Fortune 500 company. That is not to say that the teams in a Fortune 500 company are any better, merely that everybody is completely inadequate.

By consolidating targets when you can not even reach the level to protect a single one you are making the situation worse, not better by consolidating. For it to make any real amount of sense they would first need to demonstrate an ability to prevent attacks at least in the correct order of magnitude and then demonstrate that they can scale up without creating correlated risk. Only then does it make any sense to actually centralize on a single solution, let alone a single provider.
Indeed, but with some exceptions. .NET SWF shipped with extremely kludgy drawn clones of toolbars and menu bars instead of using the native ones (although the native ones were later exposed) and the result is that those particular controls on SWF apps did not age gracefully (DPI problems, system theme mismatch, scroll acceleration issues, etc). That’s the kind of thing Qt would also face with drawn components skinned to look like the real deal.

You're right, but I fear we have built up an ecosystem of talent that sees the world in one of two very binary ways.

One camp assumes if you don't expose it to the internet, and keep it on-prem, it's secure. Think exchange server on-prem (but let's overlook the gaping internet exposed parts - they don't see those, they see the fact it runs in their office).

On the other hand, it's public cloud, hosted service, rely on a big company with the resources (but accept loss of tenant isolation when something big goes badly wrong, and hope the cloud host has the skills to mitigate and detect issues).

We need more secure systems, but if they're publicly exposed then you'll require that team of experts around the clock simply to detect the potential of a compromise. Something I see a lot of confusion around is knowing when something is compromised. Responding is then "easy" in comparison for them, but they don't know what they should be looking for. With complex exposed services (mixed user and management plane over HTTPS, email interfaces for multiple protocols with different versions and authentication mechanisms), the likelihood of serious comprise tends towards 1.

Better hardening services would help to get some way towards the world you describe, but that has to filter through the whole supply chain and ecosystem - no, you shouldn't be able to manage the exchange server from outside, nor should any such interfaces be exposed. No, the exchange service shouldn't execute aspx code from folders on the local filesystem that can be modified other than through a privileged updater service.
I mean... they prevented this one in the cloud version.

I'm not advocating for a single provider, and I'm not necessarily advocating for cloud hosting as a solution, I'm just pointing out that in this case the cloud fared better than practically all of the self-hosted systems
The above poster isn't saying electric models are quiet, just that they are quieter than a similar gas model. Which makes sense when you think about it. Both of them probably have similar air turbulence noise of the blower part, but an electric motor is almost always way quieter than a bunch of pistons rattling about and having fuel-air mixture detonations.
The fact that main is 33% shorter and more descriptive should be argument enough for it to be the new default, regardless of any issues surrounding sensitivity. You should be able to still set the default to whatever you want if xcode is at all sensible.

You can't. At some point, you have to actually make use of the headers, and some of those uses require decoding to a string. There is some wiggle room here, such as doing things like,

header_as_raw_bytes == b"chunked"

which I would argue is still decoding the header: your language of choice had to encode that string into bytes in some encoding in the first place, so even though you're comparing the encoded forms, there's still a character encoding at work.

But, some of the headers are case-insensitive. E.g., Content-Type, Accept, Expect, etc.

That golang bug is precisely not treating the non-characters (the "opaque octets", as defined by the standard, that is, the octets that form obs-text) as if they were characters. You won't hit that bug in the safe subset, presuming you're implementing other parts of the standard correctly. (Which is… a huge assumption, given HTTP's complexity, but that's sort of the point here.)
Imagine how much they would have if they weren’t systematically defunded in the mid-1800s.

Without legal backing, advertiser's will weasel out of any technical measure. You can even see this in the common practice of showing a app specific permission prompt ahead of browser/OS level prompts because they no that being rejected at the OS level removes their ability to prompt again later.

Star Control 2 shipped with a text file containing a story where Fred Ford and Paul Reiche disappeared for 9 months to hole up in a cabin in Alaska building out the game (including planet surface exploration and hundreds of pages of alien dialogue), in isolation from their publisher, who had to hire a private investigator to find them.

I have no idea if there's any truth to it, but it sounded like my idea of heaven for a long time. When I learned that they were still working together (Toys for Bob) many years later, I harbored a fantasy about going to work for them.

This is what I like about where I live. People are trying to get productivity out of their lawns and outdoor spaces. They are growing fruit. They are growing weed. It's where they store bulky items like kayaks, and surfboards, and grills, and their kids playset. They have some sort of side hustle going on in the front or the back yard that might look like hell from the street, but it's totally that person's thing. One neighbor has their lawn littered in sculptures they've produced from found objects and granite. Another works on their project cars. Someone nearby has roosters. Some even keep bees. It's a part of your life you can make yours and work on continually without having to hire someone to bust out a wall or look at the wiring, along with the required paperwork to city hall that entails. It's both your farm and your workshop.

All of this happens when you strip the regulation from the lawn. In many cities in the U.S., you can get cited if you don't maintain your lawn to the standard of the city code. You might not be able to do something as simple as grow vegetables in front of your house at all.
