What Is the Future of Cyber Security in India?
Indian companies are seeing a significant increase in the number of challenges they face in cyber security. Amid the shift to mass remote working, organizations have experienced a huge shift in cyber threats. According to sources, the majority of the reputed organizations in India were unprepared for the change. Only a few organizations adopted cyber security measures to support the remote working environment.

How the future of cyber security in India will look like?
According to the report developed by Data Security Council of India, over half billion people in India are using internet. With the increase in number of internet users, cyber criminals have shifted their focus to India. There is a greater focus on pushing organizations into adopting minimal security standards.
No doubt, emerging technologies are the future of cyber security in India. Here is how the advanced technologies and tools change the future of cyber security –

Automated networks
Automated networks are likely to reduce the risk of cyber attacks. With automated scanning and monitoring of connected networks, one can report the animosities and deviations in real-time. The automatic updating of firewalls, endpoints, network, payloads and anti-viruses with the help of AI/ML can be a game-changer in preventing cyber attacks. In such a scenario, companies should look for advanced cyber security tools to prevent their digital assets from potential attack.

Block chain wave
Block chain is one of the popular cyber security technologies that are likely to grow tremendously in the coming years. The company can leverage a key infrastructure to authenticate the devices with the help of AI and keep the potential attacks at the bay. Organizations are likely to face a lot of phishing scams and hence they need to adopt smart cyber security techniques.

That's not a bet... that's marketing.

Look at 176 for another bit of marketing.

No, bitcoin wouldn't have been a better choice. Quotes like these really show how the public view such sentiment.

Unless under Subpoena or if there's a equivalent emergency of CALEA for an payment gateway, they would not reveal the exact financial statement or settlement. The ledger is private.

Meanwhile the bitcoin ledger is public, anyone can see a transaction and know when it happened.

With the payment gateway via applepay/cashapp, you know who the person sent it and received it only under warrant/Subpoena. If this is released wrongly, or non-intentionally, then it can easily be inadmissable in court breaking chain of evidence, etc etc.

With bitcoin, once you know one party's address, you can view all transactions and see the immediate network effect. Same with knowing the payment gateway details of authorizer and debtor/debtee. There is no need for warrant/Subpoena to view this.

I can go on, but you get the picture, I hope.

Hahaha, nope. Not in any of the major tech hubs. I think it’s true in most cities.
I have a hard time conceiving of any reason that North and South would be different in this regard, but maybe it's possible if there is a tendency for rivers to flow towards the equator for some reason, since most of the world's landmass happens to be in the northern hemisphere.
I actually strongly disagree. Bundled applications which I don’t use and/or will replace with more powerful third party options just add clutter. There’s a balance to be sure, but I generally think OS’s bundle too many apps!
I used a macbook for 2 years and the key binding is definitely less consistent than windows or linux. If nothing something as important as word navigation and word selection (ctrl+arrows and ctrl+shift+ arrows on linux and windows), is located in different modifiers (can't remember which), something along the lines of: move with command+arrow and select with option+shift+arrows.

Drives me crazy every time, given that command + backspace deletes a word (and command +del deletes a word in the other direction).
Whether or not a default configuration is vulnerable is a pretty typical component of accessing a vulnerability’s severity.

Unfortunate that the author didn’t mention this.

Obviously this doesn’t excuse the bug, but it’s important to contextualize if we hope to compare relative impact and have frank discussions.

Why does no one here have a sense of humor.
Did you forget what you originally wrote? You said:

> Do you have an example of something humans did that could kill them that was automated completely that still can kill them, but generally does not anymore?

And I pointed out that the parent comment had already provided an example. Now you are arguing with me that the example given, about Garmin Autoland, isn't comparable to self-driving... Which isn't at all the example you asked for in the first place. Maybe focus and read a little more, write a little less. You'll be more easily understood.
Yep, was was it. I forgot I set that.

Type and creator codes were stored in the desktop file IIRC, not in the resource fork.
Wow. I would have expected Android to be so much higher. For all the poorest people in the world who never owned a computer and have Internet access through an Android device, this is a great statistic.
You aren't technically wrong, I guess, but Fossil would disagree that SQLite is somehow wrong for this use-case.

Fossil does seems to have issues when the VCS grows into many many gigabytes of data, like the entire OpenBSD source tree didn't work out very well in Fossil, but the chances of a personal task manager ever growing that size is slim to none I would imagine.
You'll have to wait until I publish my article on this subject if you want to see some code.

But can you agree that a pointer does not give you anything else than a direct reference to a memory area?

Because of the indirection, a handle can do much more, depending on the implementation.
Sure.

But suppose you ripped that jersey into a thousand pieces, and sold each separately. People might still buy it, because those pieces as a whole were in fact a Michael Jordan jersey at some point. A piece of that history is cheaper to own than the entire thing.

Now suppose you rip it into 100 million pieces and create non-fungible tokens where each tiny piece could be scanned with a phone, identified, and associated with an arbitrary blob of data.

Now it's a race of a savvy PR team against the public's hazy and soon-to-be waning interest in what-- if anything-- is the value of one of those microscopic jersey specs. "Something something Michael Jordan," got you to distract a captive audience from Candy Crush for five seconds. What happens next has absolutely nothing to do with Michael Jordan, and everything to do with P.T. Barnum.

I mean, yes? Do you believe that if there was no voting that the money would get spent in better ways?

40% is a lot, but also the vast majority of federal spending goes to the safety net: unemployment insurance, social security, Medicare, health services — these categories are each more than spending on defense.

Personally, though I’ve never had to rely on unemployment insurance, I’m definitely glad it exists!

The political arguments about spending are basically noise at the margins by comparison.
Hmm, I was just looking at httpdito and I see that I was wrong about the timeout when it's sending: it disables the timeout once it starts sending the response, on the theory that sooner or later TCP will time out if you stop acknowledging. Well, it will, but it might take a lot longer than 32 seconds. And I don't know for sure but I suspect you can hold open a TCP connection forever by periodically resending the same ACK packet, which would mean you could totally DoS httpdito just by requesting some large web page and then never reading any of it, 2048 times. It would probably need to be big enough that it won't fit in the kernel's TCP send buffer in order to keep the child process from exiting.

At least that "solves" the 9600 baud problem, I guess.

I don't think that's the kind of thing that's likely to happen by accident, but it's probably an easy enough attack to mount intentionally.
That's a valid point. I do think it's possible to build an app that gets you to reflect a lot more than interact. Ping me on Twitter @finereli, I'll show you what I've got so far.

That coin was minted in 1831 according to the document you linked. That only leaves about 16 years for the coin to make it from India to Utah before the territory was won by or ceded to the United States during the Mexican War around 1847. If it was indeed related to Spanish missionaries it probably would be older than 1831 since those missionaries would've been Mexican. Mexico won independence from Spain in 1821-1822 though the Spanish only officially recognized it in 1836 I think.

It probably found its way there in the pocket of a Mormon who came to California to serve against the Mexicans during that short-lived part of the Mexican War. Or maybe a friar, or miner who got it as payment during some transaction with a Mexican or Spanish sailor in a California port city before the state came under control of the United States. Its placement could be dated more accurately if it were placed in context with the mint marks or dates from coins that it was found with.

There are lots of reasons why people would bury valuables back then and never return to recover them.

Your potential is an utterly subjective objective. I'm not arguing for or against, but feeling "fully self-actualized" is equally accomplished by achieving your goals or lowering your goals until they're easily achievable. It's more a function of self-esteem than it is any kind of objective challenge. Those with healthy self-esteem feel self-actualized, those with poor self-esteem will feel as though they're never at their best.

"Most banks would instantly be out of business". "would result in disastrous inflation".

Boohoo. We should stop thinking of finance as an end in and of itself, and more for the purposes of achieving other goals, whether individual or social. In that case, it's both acceptable, and probably in some cases desirable, to lose money in the venture.

If the private banking industry is vapourized, the state can step in, and gains an incredible new leverage to achieve policy goals.

It would be the turbocharged version of things like green pledges. Rather than saying "we convinced some big banks to not back new coal projects, so you'll have to pay a few percent more interest/deal with second tier lenders to build the plant" it's simply "there's only one lender, and they said no to coal effective 2021, so you'd better start a bake sale to raise $400 million." or "The state will give you a 1% rate loan to build your new job factory in a downtrodden rust-belt city, or a 15% loan to build it in San Jose."

Even inflation, I think we maybe need to think about it less as an abstract badness indicator. As they say, "money can be exchanged for goods and services", so let's figure out how to ensure access to goods and services even in economic turmoil, rather than worry about the numbers on the notes.

On the short term, if you're not Zimbabwe or Venezuela, inflation is noise. If I'm saving for a few months to buy a RTX3080 or the down payment on a car, even if it's 20% per year inflation, that's not going to be a huge damper on my plans, so long as wages trend with it. There's plenty of things we buy with that degree of price volatilty already. Subsidized staple goods can help further damp the social consequences.

On the medium term, inflation is basically a hedge strategy for everyone who took out non-jubileed debt. In some ways, this could kickstart some consumer demand to exploit it. Every year, your fixed-rate mortgage or car payment gets cheaper, again, so long as we index wages. I suspect we already see this-- how many people don't move because they don't want to leave their 15-year-old $120k mortgage on a house now worth $400k?

On the longest terms, we have things like home deposits, college funds, and retirement plans. A state intervention could provide risk-mitigation strategies-- for example, broad deployment of inflation-indexed investment programs for consumers. Something like the old "Series I" savings bonds, but with bigger subsidies and better marketing. Or development of "guaranteed benefit" prepaid programs. Sign up now, pay for 15 years, and you're guaranteed a condo in Boca Raton when you turn 60/tuition at Harvard for your kid when he turns 18, no matter what they would cost on the open market at that time.
Defenese spending is much more than you think: it's not just the "defense" category, it's also department of energy, dept of veteran affairs, dept of homeland security, and there's other sections where defense spending comes from. All together it's a sizable chunk.

There's no such thing as "waiving" your citizenship. You have to renounce it.
It's a complicated process that must be done in person, under oath, before a consular or diplomatic officer. And there's a bunch of paperwork.

Also, crucially, if you have not obtained citizenship elsewhere first, you will be a stateless person with no rights anywhere. So you can't just renounce your citizen and then move.

Also, it's irrevocable — if you change your mind, you can't get citizenship back except by immigrating the hard way (visa/green card track).

You may also owe an exit tax, depending on your recent income and current wealth. Oh, and it costs $2,350.

I was asking OP there if he could provide me with a list of edge cases of formatted strings to help me test my parser implementation.

This alone pushed me probably weeks ahead...I think that's what I dislike the most about it: missing reference implementations of ISO standards that also contain testsuites. I mean, without that it's just yet another paper.

A standard is useless when it's not public. But it's even more useless when there's no unified testsuite to test your implementation against. Looking at you too, IETF and everything related to the Web.
