When laws treat members of different racial/ethnic/national groups differently, that's a form of discrimination. If there was a genocide against group A, and another against group B, and we say that it is illegal to deny the genocide against group A, but legal to deny the genocide against group B, that is treating group A and B differently. It is going to upset many members of group B, and damage social cohesion. Especially so if the different legal treatment is based on politics rather than principle.

I don't think your case of speed limits is really comparable. Nobody's personal identity is based on a speed limit, those laws – however rational or irrational they may be – are not relevant to personal identity. But genocide denial laws are relevant to personal identity – to racial/ethnic/national/etc identity – since different genocides have different victim groups, and there are people alive today who belong to those victim groups and identify with them, and the victims of a genocide (and their descendants) have a special interest in whether it is legal to deny that genocide.

>The other apps just shove possibly backdoored E2E down people's throats with no choice at all.

You can check e.g. Signal is not backdoored by reading the source code. You can find it here https://github.com/signalapp/

You can vefify the client you downloaded from Play Store hasn't been tampered with. Instructions for that are here: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/tree/master/repr...

Your post is slightly ironic, considering Telegram doesn't give you any choice on using E2EE for groups or any chats for that matter, on majority of desktop clients. Know this: when you're not using end-to-end encryption, i.e. when you're using Telegram cloud chats, those chats are by definition as private as a backdoored E2EE chat would be. So one could argue they are front-doored by design.
Social distancing is another example of a sacrifice that people were unwilling to make. Though I wouldn't call it minor.

Millions didn’t flock to the internet at once. People were trash talking Kirk vs Picard in 1987, they were be moaning Eternal September from 1993, in 1996 there was AOL for a few bleeding edge people, but the Internet was useful even with just 30 million people worldwide. even in 2000 the Internet was something Al Gore was waffling on about for the majority of even the western world.

You don’t need to reach a billion people to be useful. Wikipedia didn’t have a billion users when it was first useful, nor did OSM, or slashdot, or alt.Wesley.crusher.die.die.die

My workflow for research is like this:

- open link, determine if it’s relevant or not. If it’s relevant, but not relevant right now, I’ll dump it into my notes.

- then I close the tab. Pretty simple.

- when the time comes where that link is relevant again, I’ll find it in my notes and open it.

- I really don’t find any value in having tabs open that aren’t immediately relevant to what I’m doing. 10 seems like the upper limit of focus for me.
It's the name of a iOS malware/RAT by NSO, an Israeli company that likes to sell their software to governments offering varying degrees of personal freedom around the world.

It's been around with zero-click exploits for years, and apparently even now, after their big iMessage "security" rewrite with iOS 14. Very likely that they have other entrypoints as well though.

What happens to that model when someone starts reporting at Google, FB, NYT, Wash Post, etc. is tracking your every scroll and click? And does this biz model actually promote higher quality journalism? Anecdotally, it doesn't look that way.

I'm not sure what the solution is but giving more powerful to the powerful is not a sustainable route to fixing The Fourth Estate.

Yes the wording is imperfect. I meant "accept", as in, not protest until they are repealed. Voting is useless as all main political parties typically agree on this.
In this case it's not directed by the Israeli state; the Israeli state just doesn't really care, and doesn't want to interfere with the post-army job prospects of intelligence personnel.
I honestly tried... Had a team of people with various skills,needs, and motivations. I not only encouraged to use the available opportunities within the business but also persuaded the CEO to invest in continuos training, heck, I even allocated time during work hours to do the learning at their own pace no questions asked. Nobody has gone beyond bare minimum,even when they had a chance to double their income in 2-3 years. So if people on relatively modest salaries won't do it,I don't know how else to push for it...

This is accurate. From Time's "How the U.S. Got Its Police Force"[1]:

> The first publicly funded, organized police force with officers on duty full-time was created in Boston in 1838. Boston was a large shipping commercial center, and businesses had been hiring people to protect their property and safeguard the transport of goods from the port of Boston to other places, says Potter. These merchants came up with a way to save money by transferring to the cost of maintaining a police force to citizens by arguing that it was for the “collective good.”

> In the South, however, the economics that drove the creation of police forces were centered not on the protection of shipping interests but on the preservation of the slavery system.*

Police were union-busting, as well:

> For example, businessmen in the late 19th century had both connections to politicians and an image of the kinds of people most likely to go on strike and disrupt their workforce. So it’s no coincidence that by the late 1880s, all major U.S. cities had police forces. Fears of labor-union organizers and of large waves of Catholic, Irish, Italian, German, and Eastern European immigrants, who looked and acted differently from the people who had dominated cities before, drove the call for the preservation of law and order, or at least the version of it promoted by dominant interests.

Thanks I’ll have to check out Proxmox. For the NUC’s I’ve been booting from USB drives using Nerves. It works well! That leaves the entire m.2 for the application.

Nerves targets embedded buts works perfectly for setting up a cluster of small devices. Using ZFS could be a good method, hmmm.

Ceph and gluster aren’t meant for small offices, sure. But small businesses still spend a lot to setup IT servers. A system with reliable replication costs even more. So if one of those file systems could provide redundancy it’d be worth the extra disks. Of course many IT staff won’t know anything about those file systems, much less running them. I’d like one to just have a storage cluster for resilient backups for personal data.
The people who work in these companies should be absolutely shunned and black listed from laundering their past by taking up a role at any major tech firm.

The people who work at NSO and companies like this are a stain on the whole tech industry and are outcasted by their own IOF peers for being greedy and morally-lacking.

Absolutely disgusting to think your hands are clean while you make tools that directly empower dictators and keep whole regions of people subjugated.

How much of the content on Facebook is indexed by someone other than Facebook and accessible to someone without a Facebook account? How much of it can be archived by a third party?

Content that previously would have been on some personal geocities(?) page on the open web is behind Facebook's wall. Facebook has effectively taken something that was previously open and made it closed.

While I also could not find a coherent solution in the OP, I have to agree with them that the proliferation of closed networks are detrimental to the web as a whole.

London is absurd place when it comes to costs. It's very similar to NY, but then to find a tech job that would pay £100K+ is virtually unheard-of except some niche jobs in financial sector or super-ultra-specialised in tech companies. The same job with Google pays 2-3 times less than in the US..

Absolutely. Telegram isn't end-to-end encrypted by default. The author admits so here: https://telegra.ph/Why-Isnt-Telegram-End-to-End-Encrypted-by...

Q.E.D.

This set of 4 vulnerabilities isn't the issue with Telegram. Vulnerabilities can often be patched. The issue is the fundamental way Telegram functions.

Finally, I'm a bit puzzled, you seem to be "open minded" yet your post didn't even touch on this massive issue of failure to provide E2EE for groups, desktop clients, or anything by default. Were you unaware of it? Or would you argue the endless list of competition that actually does E2EE properly (Signal, Wire, Threema, Element...), over-do security?

You're also not even remotely interested in agreeing with the academic community, but instead just observe and basically imply: "no breaches have been made public, therefore it must be secure". How familiar are you with the field of computer security, do you know how security is quantified?

Well, one tends to see many more mohawk-and-studded-jacket punks crawl the streets than cyberpunk or steampunk enthusiasts. That punk went mainstream long ago, everyone is sorta aware what that raggedy-arse looking fellow is about.

Examples of persons adopting a cyber- or steampunk identity do exist, however, in eye-catching forms as well. They just do not get appropriately identified as such, because mainstream culture has not explicitly acknowledged those punks.

Worse, the mainstream has appropriated and exploited the aesthetics of both, and thus the cyberpunk gets misidentified as some anime hackerman and the steampunk is maybe going to a costume party somewhere?

It is thus not possible to externally identify as any kind of otherpunk: general social acknowledgement of aesthetically alternative lifestyles is generally not there at all. What follows is ridicule and exclusion.
It's on the 11" model, so definitely not a mini-LED issue.
I like most of React and am strongly against writing anything akin to an SPA in vanilla JS. (Whether or not an SPA is the right approach is debatable but besides the point)

And yet this article is disingenuous. The OPs target can be achieved using CSS alone. In fact, quite a lot of things can be done quite well in vanilla JS and CSS.

This works well to some degree. Then I found it to fall apart.

- Those BE devs now forced to write FE in React|Vue|* and hate it so much that they've never learned it, won't learn a vanilla stack either. Especially not CSS. That's just for colours. Or something.

- Most vanilla approaches I worked on relied heavily on the correct ordering of HTML elements with the correct classes for something to work. There's little to no encapsulation. Only copy and paste. It's also immensely brittle.

- You can add some simple encapsulation, but the easier way is to brute force some imperative mess. Close ticket. Open next. Velocity is high.

- The next step is to build your own framework. But chances are it will be worse than any 3rd party solution.

- A huge advantage of 3rd party libs is that there's zero chance of some ticket specific code to erroneously make its way in to the framework. Silos aren't always bad.

- Onboarding new devs is hard. There's probably no resources at hand.

- At this point you've tied yourself in to knots and the actual problem, your product, isn't even close to being solved.

It takes less than an hour to have a fast React|Vue|* application off the ground. Everything you need to build the product is in place. And with some care, it will remain fast. Alternatively, Ruby on Rails and friends work just as well.

However, wasting endless hours reinventing a worse wheel is unproductive.
Is this grounded in a peer reviewed paper?

Bilingualism - while awesome, does not track well with skill development (maths / science) in other areas even in immersion type programs where there is no further language barrier.

Non-standardized varieties of ANY language also are negatively correlated with positive outcomes. So folks speaking pidgen or strong dialects of spanish etc also struggle.

Families - even immigrant families, who go big on the monolingual thing (some parents will not speak to children in other than dominate language) have very positive outcomes - so mono-linqual is not just a white thing.

To be fair, much of this is the color and shape rendering, where pixel art had been tailored for CRTs.

Twitchy gamers do swear by “zero input lag” but are perhaps just nostalgic, difference is likely to be 8ms vs. 10ms:

“Using the industry-standard definition of input lag, 60Hz CRTs don't have 0ms input lag. 60Hz CRTs have 8.3ms of input lag…”

Your 3rd point doesn't really stand up as nature has been genetically engineering plants for far longer than humans. The sweet potato for example has had DNA implanted from other species via the agrobacterium. There are other examples out there.

Also nearly every vegetable has been modified via breeding as the wild counterpart is a lot less edible. For example bananas and watermelons used to have a lot more seeds.

> As an aside, Jakobsen and Orlandi wrote: “We stress that this is a theoretical attack on the definition of security and we do not see any way of turning the attack into a full plaintext-recovery attack.” Similarly, the Telegram “FAQ for the Technically Inclined (MTProto v.1.0)” provides the following analogy: “A postal worker could write ‘Haha’ (using invisible ink!) on the outside of a sealed package that he delivers to you. It didn’t stop the package from being delivered, it doesn’t allow them to change the contents of the package, and it doesn’t allow them to see what was inside.” In hindsight, we think that this is incorrect. As explained above, our timing side channels essentially exploit this behaviour in order to do message recovery (but we need to “chain” two “exploits” to make it work, even ignoring practicality concerns).
