MCAS was only installed to cover up aerodynamic changes (not flaws) that would have required greater recertification and retraining of pilots. To save that expense, they covered it up with MCAS so they could say "See, it's just another 737!" which caused all the issues we know so much about.
SHA1 wasn’t meant to be a security measure but as far as I know no one has been able to generate a collision that could fool a code review.

> Just replacing an object in a repository is not enough; the attacker would have to find a way to distribute that object to other repositories around the world, which is not an easy task. The colliding object would have to function as C source (if the kernel were the target of attack here), and would have to stand up to a casual inspection — it would have to look like proper kernel source.

Why are museums upset to discover that a painting they own is a forgery? Clearly it was indistinguishable from the original even to experienced curators, the “content” is the same as an original Vermeer. But the difference is that on one person can own the original, and they get to thumb their nose at all the losers who can’t. NFTs are the same. So what really “crazy” is the infantile human desire for exclusivity, not NFTs in particular.
Years ago, I listened to the G. Gordon Liddy radio show. The most hilarious incident was when he had the famous political humorist Mark Russell on his show. Russell was in-studio and said something like, "Hey, you sent me this keyboard". Liddy, totally straight, said that they wanted him to play some pieces (Russell sang and played as part of his act) and since their studio was the size of a broom closet, they had to find one that fit and they sent it to Russell to make sure it was good enough.

Then Russell says something like "You know what my first thought was at getting a piano from G. Gordon Liddy?". "It was, is one of the keys wired to a stick of dynamite?". Liddy roared with laughter.

LSP support I believe has greatly improved (and there is a dedicated lsp channel in the official discord server with the LSP plugin devs actively answering questions and providing support) since it has taken advantages of the new API's in ST4. Also, they have also started expanding out concepts of LSP helper packages that configures sane settings & the lsp server be default so that you don't need to download & configure the server yourself.
We have added a number of API endpoints in support of https://packagecontrol.io/packages/LSP.

Actually, it's more likely a matter of law.

The election process is codified in law. Changing it carries legal implications, one being the law is in question.

For an election of this significance, the very best thing to do is run it by the book, the entire book, chapter and verse.

It is a very comprehensive guide to what you are planning to do. I have used a Raspberry Pi with a USB dongle ethernet as the second NIC and FreeBSD (couldn't get OpenBSD to work).

In the past I have also built almost as secure configurations using an old IBM ThinkCentre and an extra NIC plugged into the PCI bus, but with Ubuntu Linux.

The openWRT project might be another option, but I don't have any experience with that.

Who is "we"? You're talking about brands aimed at enterprise customers. I have no idea how much penetration Ubiquiti has managed to make into that market, but certainly around these parts its products are better known in the tier below that. The kind of organisation that is considering Ubiquiti IME probably wants significantly more functionality and scalability than home or entry-level small office gear but isn't working at enterprise scale and doesn't want to pay for it either. That organisation is unlikely to be considering the kinds of brands you mentioned as alternatives, and I rarely see any of those brands mentioned in discussions about alternatives to Ubiquiti.
Exactly. We ran into same issue with Kafka. If one needs ordered messages for some reason, Kafka is pretty much useless for this.

The first thing to do is to consider whether you would want to support the Olympics in 2021. Are you going to buy the products of the sponsors? Should the sponsors be called out on their support for genocide?

The IOC claims the olympics is not about politics, which means they dont want to discuss the issue. However this is not a political issue. It is a human rights issue.
Reagan didn't almost broadcast that, he said it as a joke during a sound check. It was a joke in poor taste, but it only ended up public because someone recorded the sound check and leaked it.

Hah, that's a dream world where enabling/disabling SSID's ever worked properly.

They have a good UI, good hardware but the software seems half baked.

Originally with the switch to the "new settings", the schedules were switched between the AP's and the UDM, not sure about a dedicated cloud controller.

Great product, poor QA I think.

AFAIK DoD has always had contract with Intel, IBM, GF for certain things Fab within US. And they rarely ( If ever ) use anything that is leading edge anyway. Their requirement are critically different to mainstream consumer usage where reliability of node is paramount. Samsung is also building a Fab in Austin which has an upgrade path from IBM ( now GF ) node. I dont see what TSMC has to offer in both National Security and Fab Production Business prospective.

That is of course, as you said unless both Intel and Samsung seriously messed up their plan.
So you’re saying without MCAS the plane flys just as safely but differently which would have required retraining. That’s interesting, thanks!

Okay so there is something I actually do desperately want.

I want a way to spoof GPS signals within my own home such that devices e.g. my phones cannot geolocate themselves using GPS, or get a reading with a pre-defined wrong location.

At the same time, I don't want to affect devices outside my home.

It doesn't need to fill my home either, I'd be happy with a PCB that be stuck to the back of my phone or in a backpack that does this for a 30cm radius.

That is why the whole celebrities supporting the farmer protests was perplexing to me. These protests seems to be a case of a minority of farmers in the Punjab and Haryana region wanting to keep special privileges not afforded to the vast majority of Indian farmers. The reforms as a whole seem to me at least to be beneficial to a majority of the farmers.

Every person you swap hardware with is a chain leading back to you.

It also becomes tricky to convince someone to lend you their phone in my country since ID cards are required to register any SIM cards.

As someone else above said, adding more people makes the rope (your opsec) weaker.

People generally can't be trusted once their self-preservation instinct kicks in. How sure are you the other guy you trusted enough to put them in your opsec isn't going to sing on you when their balls are gently fondled by LE agents.

That kind of thing can happen in any work environment, frankly.

Sometimes people end up in the "yes I can do that" status group.

Could be they have union representation and contract rules that give them considerable agency coupled with low cost and risk.

Could be they are untouchable for some other reason too, principle friend, family, lover, child, sibling... Or, could be they have secured it through various relationships, power, leverage.

Unions do not cause this.

Poorly functioning workplaces can permit it to happen, and any workplace, union or not, can be poorly functioning for a ton of reasons, legal, contractual, managerial, financial...

Where that agency exists, sometimes people exercise it, simple as that.
I don't know the internal of VOA or BBC or China Daily. I think you agree there may be bias in each media. When we analyze data with extreme values via programs, we use mean or median values and get rid of the extreme values. I think the genocide accusations are some extreme values and I don't trust them. I just post the different sources with different views on the topic. One of the source is from China Daily, and the other source is from a French author. I think hearing from different sources make us have a clearer view on the topic.

You're right that it's not _strictly_ memory consumption and that other criteria and overrides exist, but memory consumption is highly weighted.

Regarding SSH, if you enable sshd debug logging you can see that sshd sets its own score to the minimum possible [0] which is why your comment about sshd being targeted still doesn't make sense to me. I actually didn't know it was sshd doing this on its own till I ran this:

server ~ # grep oom_score_adj /usr/sbin/sshd
grep: /usr/sbin/sshd: binary file matches

...which is fascinating and clever. That's when I checked the source code linked at "[0]". I now finally have an answer as to why I've seen dmesg memory stat dumps display different oom_score_adj values for sshd. I always thought _something_ was smart enough to know that we don't want to risk killing sshd, but I didn't know what that _something_ was. It turns out it was the daemon itself.

In retrospect it makes a lot of sense, especially considering sshd runs as root -- it has complete ability to do that. And it's not like anything else would know the importance of sshd except for itself.

However I still don't understand your comment about the Linux OOM killer wanting to kill sshd "first" (or _ever_ based on these renewed findings!) Can you elaborate?

> do you also refuse to be a passenger in automobiles? The 737MAX is quite a bit safer than those.

I expect more from HN users.

The 737 MAX has not been demonstrated to be safe, let alone safer than other modes of transportation.

All of the original issues (no oversight over ODA process, outsourced software, lack of redundant sensors, etc.) still remain like insects in amber.

Source: commercially-rated pilot who has followed this since Day One, and was the only person who said the grounding would take at least a year, primarily because of the involvement of software with hardware.

The "million in detention" claim is based on Adrian Zenz' questionable work, where he took the percentage of people per village in camps from 8 Uyghur testimonies (totaling ~2000 in camps), and extrapolated out to the entire region.

I have no doubt the police state in Xinjiang is brutal to my Western conception, but given the recent history for the US in particular to compile dodgy dossiers filled with "encouraged" testimony from a handful of sources, I'm skeptical and would absolutely not take the million figure as fact.
Why equally badly? Did you miss this part can target at runtime the best vector width if available?

No, the plane does not fly safely without MCAS. Without the MCAS there the aircraft has a tendency to pitch up, resulting in a stall situation.
This is more aimed at cloud providers, specifically so they can offer customers who don't want their cloud provider spying on them some privacy. Clients could be governments who want to outsource their datacenters but run sensitive computations.
Aerospace engineer here.

From TFA:

>A component of the main electric trim system became inoperative. Our pilots ran the appropriate checklist, which included manually trimming the aircraft. They returned to MIA and landed uneventfully. The issue was not related to MCAS.

That statement is from the airline, not from Boeing, so I'm more inclined to trust it. Additionally, if the airline lies and it turns up on an airworthiness audit (air maintenance organizations are subject to regular audits) then the penalties are quite severe.

In any case, per the airline's statement it was an issue unrelated to MCAS. Aircraft break literally every day in a myriad of ways that are often invisible/imperceptible to people riding on that very aircraft. In this particular case it was some unspecified component of the electric trim system.

You can look up the Master Minimum Equipment List for the B737[0] and see for yourself just how granular the approved maintenance program gets for aircraft like this. Everything on the MMEL is essentially an item that can be broken and the aircraft can still take off legally. Note that this is a different (and more rigorous) standard than "can be broken and aircraft can take off/operate safely".

I don't know exactly what broke here but I suspect it is a part that has broken on 737s hundreds if not thousands of times in the past, with similar outcomes.

I merely dabble in software but to further your analogy: This situation is when you've been dreaming about that bug for weeks and you get the call from the boss thinking it has recurred but instead it turns out it was a similar-smelling failure caused by some intern's microservice not failing gracefully when confronted with a network outage that brought down the system anyways.

I bought some Ubiquiti gear a year ago (a pair of AC-AP Pros), and immediately after I got them I reflashed them with OpenWRT. Haven't had even one issue with them.

I get that people with larger networks would find centralized management useful, but I'm fine just managing a couple APs, a router, and a couple switches on their own. They're pretty much set-it-and-forget-it devices anyway.
Does anyone else not get 100% feel-good vibes from this?

Tuple is not a value type. And this means that they won't add an implicit conversion, because right now a major focus of .NET and C# is also performance. and this conversion would mean an implicit heap allocation. They'd rather avoid adding features of this sort as I understand it.

I'd be suspicious of those claims – anecdotal but, unless US doctors differ greatly, neither of those are secrets that have been withheld from me by dentists in 3 European countries.

In fact the second statement is surely the basis for most modern dentistry...?

(I said US there because it's an assumption that the US approach to dentistry may be different to rest of the world. From afar, seems more cosmetic focused with a lot more emphasis put on whitening/straightening/veneer/fixing procedures than over here)
