Good question. I think all ages have some decadence in them, but it depends on how widespread and to what degree. When people have to earn their wealth instead of gain it by corruption, inheritance, and graft, then they are more careful with it and learn principles of hard work, thrift, and honesty.

It is more of the pathway to wealth and power that is promoted by the culture. Sometimes greed and exploitation is promoted, sometimes hard work is promoted and exploitation is diminished. Both always exist, but sometimes one is more dominant.

After World War II, there were many people who had to work very hard and wanted to start a family, start a business, and improve their communities; they got an education and tried to do their civic duties.

I know a lot of people like that, almost all of the people I know who grew up in that generation are like that. Though the 60s has well publicized decadence, most people in that time period were not like that. They were humble, honest, and hard working people. The culture that we remember most from some decades is the minority culture in that decade, which comes to fruition later, not the vast silence majority who truly made it what it was.
Really?

Apparently the first year students at my university didn't had any issue going from Standard Pascal to C++, in the mid-90's.

Proper C++ was taught using our string, vector and collection classes, given that we were still a couple of years away from ISO C++ being fully defined.

C style programming with low level tricks were only introduced later as advanced topics.

Apparently thousands of students managed to get going the remaining 5 years of the degree.

> Ubsan should default on

> Could save a huge amount of time debugging when compilers or architecture changes.

I'm assuming we come from very different backgrounds, but it's not clear to me how switching compilers or architectures is so common that hardening code against it by default is appropriate. I would think that switching compilers or architectures is generally done very deliberately, so instrumenting code with UBsan for that transition would be the right thing to do?

We used to have machines with arbitrarily sized bytes, and 36 bit words!

http://pdp10.nocrew.org/docs/instruction-set/Byte.html

>In the PDP-10 a "byte" is some number of contiguous bits within one word. A byte pointer is a quantity (which occupies a whole word) which describes the location of a byte. There are three parts to the description of a byte: the word (i.e., address) in which the byte occurs, the position of the byte within the word, and the length of the byte.

>A byte pointer has the following format:

000000 000011 1 1 1111 112222222222333333
012345 678901 2 3 4567 890123456789012345
_________________________________________
| | | | | | |
| POS | SIZE |U|I| X | Y |
|______|______|_|_|____|__________________|

>POS is the byte position: the number of bits from the right end of the byte to the right end of the word.
SIZE is the byte size in bits.

>The U field is ignored by the byte instructions.

>The I, X and Y fields are used, just as in an instruction, to compute an effective address which specifies the location of the word containing the byte.

> managed to generate

Forgive my preference not to generate verbal diarrhea into the page for your reading pleasure. It should be simple to extrapolate many more possibilities from what I stated if someone were willing to put an ounce of thought into it. Which you already did.

Anyway, I presume you are reacting to my summation of comparing the wet market vs lab theories and stating that one, when expanded to include several closely related possibilities, seemed far more likely to me. I stand by my framing, which doesn't preclude that there is another third possible factor, or many more.

I'm not starting from any conclusion like that, and in fact, my whole post was saying that it was likely NOT a bioweapon even if there was a lab escape. Please stop imputing talking points you have heard elsewhere to my argument. It's actually quite rude.
I agree, but a little nitpick: A sequence of bytes does not have a defined endianness. Only groups of more than one bytes (i.e. half words, words, double words or whatever you want to call them) have an endianness.

In practice, most projects (e.g. the Linux kernel or the socket interface) differentiate between host (indeterminate) byte order and a specific byte order (e.g. network byte order/big endian).
You just witnessed modern US propaganda in action. We are all constantly barraged by messages about "if you look non-white you must be oppressed, poor thing". And because it is constant it is making people perform snap judgements rather than actually think.

Of course someone from Uzbekistan is quite different from an an American with a vaguely Asian looking face, both culturally and economically. Any yet the parent comment author's brain automatically filed them in the same bucket. This kind of automatic thinking is exactly how propaganda works.

"Wealth tax"? The people who are leaving California are not high wealth.

The best wealth tax out there, a land tax, has been prohibited in the California constitution via proposition 13, and that tax would go a long way towards eliminating the rentierism that is pushing out people with lower incomes.
> You seriously think it’s a good idea to pay people more to do nothing than they would get for their best option for doing something useful for somebody else?

Yeah, definitely

Bit of a slippery slope (tax evasion, in the US, usually doesn’t lead to death at the hands of law enforcement) but yea, I agree with the sentiment here. Avoiding arrest is good (barring any justified civil disobedience)

You'll never find the right way. But there are lot's of ways that are good enough - you can learn to get satisfaction in a good enough solution and move on.

As someone who's made a career out of managing Facebook ads, I can understand the fear surrounding them.

I've only ever use targeting/tracking to serve users content that is super relevant to them. And this is reflected by there clearly being far higher engagement on FB event-targeted ads vs general ads.

Facebook has been extremely strict on the types of ad copy and creative we can share with users via ads. I am a very ethically consicuous person and not once have felt that I've invaded anyone's privacy with the ads. The targeting parameters aren't as powerful as to allow targeting more granularly than several hundred users at once.
Given the provenance of most (all?) of the material on Sci-Hub, the copyright issues here seem laughable to me.

Fruitless speculation about the FBI aside, you do have to wonder about the future of IP generally in the world.

It doesn't make any sense at all. Draw the Voronoi diagram; the cells will be of non-uniform size, so some points are much more likely to be picked than others. And why is this 2D? 2D doesn't give you any more randomness than 1D, it's just obfucscation.

If you computed the cell points anew for each sampling, it would indeed be random. But for repeated sampling, you've made up a very skewed distribution, where the successive samples are highly correlated.

I feel like big endian is more _intuitive_ because that's what our number notation has evolved to be.

But more _natural_ is little endian because, well, it's just more straightforward to have the digits' magnitude be in ascending order (2^0, 2^1, 2^2, 2^3...) instead of putting it in reverse.

Plus you encounter less roadblocks in practice with little endian (e.g. address changes with casts) which is often a sign of good natural design

> The CDC telling us not to wear masks because they wouldn’t help

Source? At the start of the pandemic many health officials said that there is no evidence that masks help (which was true), but the fact that there is no evidence is different than saying that they definitely don't help. Meanwhile emphasis was put on hand washing, social distancing which had plenty of evidence. Of course it makes sense to promote those practices over something that isn't yet proven.

Now that we have data on the pandemic, we have evidence, so that was presented. But please, if you have a link to a source where CDC says masks don't work, please provide.

That isn't the implication. I wouldn't even say EDM represents any particular club culture at all, just a shorthand for electronic music in general. If I wanted to refer to a club scene or genre I would use it's actual name and for me at least none of them are called EDM.

It's not surprising to me that there are different interpretations of the term and I am not particularly worried about that. It's all muddied up across the globe, across time and across the internet, music is as colloquial as it is worldwide.

There are so many genre placement disagreements all across music, slotting everything into discrete groupings is only useful in a shallow and practical way, not a meaningful one.
The reason I'm going for firmware is while the HMIs could have had a solarwinds style exposure, but that's just any generically wormable OS vulnerability, and not something that should cause a physical shutdown.

To shutdown a pipeline, it's not a management console issue, hence why I'd speculate it's in the ICS devices themselves, which probably use uClinux toolchains on SoCs from one or two large vendors. I did some smart meter and ICS security work in the 00's, and there were a few vendors who would be strategic targets. The attack tools available now are unbelievably better, while the attack surface is pretty much the same due to the long lifecycles of ICS components, and considering today we've got cheap SDRs and gnuradio blocks for most wireless protocols, AVR tools, buspirate and the good/greatfet, ghidra/ida, and python for reverse engineering, the vulnerability research on this stuff moves way faster than the industry ability to respond.

If this is a serious attack, the only way to respond will be if they are very lucky, it's a worm and they can stand up a honeynet with spare gear to catch a sample and any good infosec firm can pull it apart. But if it's an active APT group, there's probably a political solution, as given what's possible, this would seem to be just a shot over the bow.

I don't use ad blockers and I occasionally "interact" with the advertised link as some kind of low level tip jar for wherever the ad was shown. The networks go crazy trying to sell that ad-click again. A click that will never earn the advertiser any money, no matter how often repeated.

What I've learned so far: don't click on ads you'd feel uncomfortable with seeing everywhere. The tracking industry must be such a waste of advertiser's money! If you like pretty pictures of horses in nature you can, with just a few clicks, get them to decorate almost the entire web with equestrianist landscape shots for you, without you ever spending a dime on, I don't know, saddle maintenance gadgets or whatever. I guess there are some advertisers for whom this isn't utterly broken, but they must be a rare reception. If you sell some supercar it's an essential part of the product that millions of small boys and poor men dream of driving one and it kind of makes sense to concave "the web" to show pictures to the dreamers, but that's a rather small market compared to the size of the tracking industry.
