Correct, but the use of stoppage is a little bit similar to the use of timeouts in other sports, in my humble opinion.

I feel like that sometimes. Not all bad though. I've learned that being spartan with your approach not only frees the mind of clutter but your stack wont be delicate shitshow of obscure tools 3-4 years down the line.
~6 hours or just above it in general seems to be the sweetspot. Most negative effects (especially broad ones like all-cause mortality) only really start showing up under 6 (or over 7 hours)[0].

Too bad the majority of reporting exaggerates and starts scaring people for going under 8 (and sometimes 9!) when yet again it seems like 6-7 is likely best, with very little 'loss' between 7 and 6. Just don't go much lower than that for long unless you need exceptionally less.

Sorry, I skipped that part where you meant the developing world. I'm referring to how I spend my money in the EU. Revolut has all these 'neobank' features of limiting contactless spend, creating a virtual disposable card for e-commerce purchases, and also being able to send money to others, etc.

In other news: the three little pigs ban wolves after wolves exposed the dubious engineering of the straw house by blowing on it for a research paper.
So I wonder, why disclose this?

This will just prompt Cellebrite to improve its security process and sandbox the entire tool.

If they wanted to destroy the credibility of the tool, using the vulnerabilities to silently tamper with the collected data or even leaking it online would be a much better option and hit them without any warning, not only jeopardizing those cases but forever casting doubt on not just Cellebrite but their competitor tools.
That 10% isn't remotely risk-free. All the combined lending/defi/erc20 smart contracts are held together by paper clips and rubber bands. The popular ones have been stable so far but there is a proven history of hacks and exploits in crypto in general.
The guideline is: your mask protects me, and my mask protects you. From what I read earlier, when COVID19 was new, the guideline is based on the physics of masks and airflow, and how masks reduce transmission of the virus via speaking, sneezing and coughing.

>Not at least helped by the nationalism in the west in form of export controls and patents.

In India's case it was one of the first places to be licensed to make the AstraZenca vaccine, I think at no cost. The Serum Institute there, the world's largest vaccine producer, was the first place to start producing vaccine in quantity. I'm not sure you can really blame the west here. Though recently the US have been blocking supplies which I hope is a temporary glitch.
Next in the news: Why proof-of-space cryptocurrencies do not waste disk space, even though you can't use it anymore.

> On the other hand, intentional vulnerability submission is an unique threat vector that OSS has, and which proprietary software doesn't.

On this specific point, it only holds if you restrict the assertion to 'intentional submission of vulnerabilities by outsiders'. I don't work in fintech, but I've read allegations that insider-created vulnerabilities and backdoors are a very real risk.

In a lot of FORTH implementations, constant numbers like 0, 1, -1 and others are hard coded, not just for speed but also for space: a call to a code word only takes one cell, instead of using two cells with a LIT [value].

Here's some Breshenham line code I first wrote in FORTH (Mitch Bradley's SunForth on a 68k Sun-2 with cg2 graphics board), then translated to 68k code (using the rpn FORTH assembler) -- the FORTH code is commented out before the corresponding assembly code:

https://donhopkins.com/home/archive/forth/cg/line.f

The cg2 board wasn't directly memory mapped -- it had a really weird way of selecting and accessing one row and one column at a time, which was kinda convenient for drawing lines and curves, and ropping blocks around, but nowhere as convenient as direct memory mapped access would have been.

Yep, while the downside is that it wastes maintainers’ time and they are rightfully annoyed, I find the overall topic fascinating not repulsive. This is a real world red team pen test on one of the highest profile software projects. There is a lot to learn here all around! Hope the UMN people didn't burn goodwill by being too annoying, though. Sounds like they may not be the best red team after all...

This is truly a hacker’s retort.

It attacks Cellebrite's ability to operate by casting doubt on the reports generated by the product that their customers may wish to use in court.

It places them in legal peril from Apple, and removes any cover Apple would have to not take legal action. (I assume someone at Apple knew they were shipping their DLLs?)

It makes a thinly-veiled threat that any random Signal user's data may actively attempt to exploit their software in the future and demonstrates that it's trivial to do so.

If your problem is targeted advertising, then yes, this definitely isn't trying to solve that. The goal here is to solve your data being leaked all over the internet.

We can have an entirely separate discussion on whether the value of targeted ads. You named a few downside but are completely ignoring the upsides. The fact that without them, anyone other than large corporations would be entirely cut out of advertising their product. Any small business or creator with a niche demographic is basically screwed.

If you make an app for some video game, a cure for some specific disease, gear for a specific sport, all those people would basically be locked out of advertising their products.
Telling them in advance will potentially make them more alert for problem coming from specific source. It will introduce bias.

The best they can do is notify the maintainers after they got the result for their research and give the maintainers an easy way to recover from vulnerability they intentionally create.
Depends how easy this is to do on the fly. Lots of people thinking about it like it's a spy thriller. But could a creep with a laptop use it to harvest phone numbers from random school girls that they like the look of in starbucks? Not sure I would like my kids to experience this.
>90% of Americans prefer their primary residence as an investment over the stock market. People are likely to move funds from savings and the stock market into their homes, as they believe this to be the best strategy.

The way the housing market is structured, it is a vastly superior investment for most Americans. Housing is the only asset where every American can be highly leveraged with a fixed downside. As a house buyer you need only 10-20% down and can mortgage the rest. So if the house price goes up 10%, your return on principle is more than 50%. In California and some other states, first mortgages are non-recourse -- if there is a short sale the homeowner is not personally liable for the difference between the sale price and what is owed on the loan -- this is not true if you buy equities on margin. For these reasons, historically the returns for Americans of modest means has been astronomically larger than the returns on equities. The "all cash" phenomenon is partly investors realizing there are excess returns in this market.
You're letting you biases blind you. The headline is correct, there are a lot of merits that you aren't thinking of because your head is so far in the sand you can't even be bothered to read and educate yourself.
I've thought about this a lot and my position is that it all boils down to how bad is the result when you apply any of these approaches wrongly.

More Screen Time During Lockdown? Not for Kids Cable Channels
I agree on the premise to minimize meetings.

On the specifics of the meetings I've implemented 2 things:

1) Offer no-video meetings, maybe for 1:1 if you don't need to screen share. Be the first to go on a walk or be away from keyboard, to encourage others (especially new team members) to do it as well. Clearly I'm not sayin ALL 1:1, face time also has value, use your judgement.

2) Include a bit of non-working life. The way we were running our weekly sync was talk quickly about what you did/didn't last week (especially to catch blockers), share what's your plan for this coming week, share something you did during the weekend. 8-10 people, 30min.
I'm a bleeding heart hippie but agree 100%.. and when you dig deeper, you may find that those propagating the fud around crypto are actually speculators trying to drive prices.. which makes the fake outrage even more sick.

You're right, that was probably unnecessarily inflammatory, and isn't a good way to communicate persuasively. I thought I'd justified the statement later, and that would be sufficient. I'll try to allow what I communicate to stand on its own going forward.

On the one hand, its great news that a simple hack can increase the effectiveness of face masks.

On the other, I'm really disappointed that we haven't done a lot more work during this pandemic to develop comfortable masks that are inexpensive and effective for both the wearer and as source control.

It would resolve a lot of issues with anti-mask folks if the masks themselves were simply more effective.

YMMV but kids have their hangups and it's often not possible to negotiate rationally. They also regress (this past year has been terrible, with no school for extended periods, staying at grandma's every couple of weeks so parents can get work done...), and you're back to square one.

Whether or not we are in a bubble is increasingly the wrong question to be asking in an age where failure for sufficiently-large institutions is no longer permitted.

The question used to be pretty simple: "has a sufficient portion of the market been priced out to the extent that demand collapses"?

As we've seen in equities / derivatives (and increasingly, commodity) markets - the answer to that question is now perpetually "lol, number go up" because large investment banks have essentially infinite access to free money and will be bailed out if they get in trouble.

On a long enough timeline the end result of this is that more and more Americans write their rent checks to institutional investors. [1]

Sure, many Americans own their homes now (or have a nice cushion of equity). But what happens as wage growth continues to stay relatively flat while cost of living rises dramatically and folks need money for medical bills or their kid's college tuition (or w/e)? They sell and become renters.

There's a pretty bleak future for American housing absent regulation in this space.

The Crap Art Movement: Just sit down and do it (2001)
> How do proponents of govt run services and production units address this core flaw

They'd probably first challenge your premise that it is a flaw. A key tenet of socialism is that all are taken care of, including the lazy and incompetent (and their children). Giving such people bullshit jobs to keep them involved in the system, without overly encouraging their lazyness or allowing them to overly disrupt the system, seems like a feature, not a bug.

Honestly people gardening and growing their own food sounds like a positive for society, more so than sitting in a cubicle pushing papers or pixels of dubious value.

> When it dies and rots, it will release that carbon again.

What happens when a tree dies and turns into a house?

> it is short term, at best.

If the house stands for 100 years, then you've successfully sequestered said carbon for over 100 years (because only after then will the rotting process start). Even then, a lot of carbon turns into humus (which btw: we're also running out of Topsoil for our farms). So creating more carbon-rich humus as a topsoil replacement for our farms is ALSO a priority.

Since humus is the final product of the rotting process, I'd argue that the carbon-content of humus represents the "permanently sequestered" bits of the carbon. Which IIRC, is still a substantial portion of the weight of the tree.

There's also all the leaves that fell off the tree and turned into humus. Probably not as much by weight, but its quite possible that the leaves themselves allow the tree to sequester MORE than its weight in carbon.

IANAL either, but from my following of SCOTUS and other law cases, it does seem that the actual judicial interpretation of CFAA's authorization requirements is kind of vague and unsettled. There's a pending case before SCOTUS this term about CFAA (although it's not directly related to what the question in this thread, it's possible the opinion weighs in on it). Reading the amici, I'm not sure I'd find any consensus as to whether or not people believe this kind of access violates or doesn't violate the CFAA.

That's why I ended with shrug--there's not enough clarity to answer if it is or isn't legal with any degree of certainty.

Devil's advocate, but why? How is this different from any other white/gray-hat pentest? They tried to submit buggy patches, once approved they immediately let the maintainers know not to merge them. Then they published a paper with their findings and which weak parts in the process they thing are responsible, and which steps they recommend be taken to mitigate this.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by "stoppage"? I think baseball does have a pacing problem, but it's really cultural more than anything else: games are about 1.5x as long today as they were 50 years ago, even though in terms of what happens (number of pitches, batters, etc.) they're basically the same. Unfortunately the main way to combat this, the "pitch clock" rule, is unenforced. I can't imagine why.

I don't understand what you mean by your "dishonorable gameplay" example. What does amortizing a ball mean to you?
Pfft. Biden rolled back immigration restrictions in a period of record unemployment, and you expect improvement in unemployment benefits?
