I can't see what a Mac has to do with this at all.

Also I can't imagine why you might think that "You're not meant to use DNS fallback for different providers." That was precisely the point it was originally designed for. The whole point of multiple resolvers is to have diversity of risk. If both your resolvers are from the same organization there's a higher chance that whatever took one out took the other out as well.

There are a lot of emotions in the comments here today.
CloudFlare provides a clear response and it has merit.
Archive.is surely is not 100 reliant on this single mechanism to load share or determine correct routing to cache locations, I agree with the poster - I can't see a reason why they would block this via Cloudflare when so many other mechanisms they should already be deploying to satisfy their requirements across multiple layers in the stack exist. Edit: The position makes or made no sense and smells fishy.
Anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers, government mistrust are hardly unique to the last 20 years.

What destroyed American life were Americans, being scared, thoughtless and not talking to each other, in the name of money, absolute security, patriotism and tribalism.
First versions (at lest 2.0 and older) indeed where written in Assembly. I've seen somewhere that later version used C, but now cannot find any information about this.
I am not talking about archive.org

Archive.is is faster and does not respect robots.txt. It is recommended by Wikipedia and is widely used by journalists worldwide.
They're called “Pascal” and “Ada”. Not all caps, because they aren't acronyms.
I’m blown away by the journalism on show here, i’ve seen some really bad journalism on NYT but this is not that.

>Keep the carbon in the ground instead using other methods, and capture what you can to return safety to the geosphere.

The same way removing a knife from some you stab is going to return him to his previous state.

I love how chaos theory came out of climate modeling, but "if we just put CO2 back to the way it was everything is going to be fine". Also love that it's a given that climate is inherently stable and favourable to humans just because we happened to live in a period where it was.
It’s a ridiculous study.

They should instead look at companies that are:

1.) set up to do remote work because they actually created a plan for it and executed on it. Not companies reluctantly forced into it by a pandemic.

2.) look at companies that have been doing it longer than 6 months. Focusing on the first 6 months of 2020 as the baseline for how remote work is “going”. Is beyond unscientific.
Exactly on your link, just ctrl-F for "Netflix":

"We are working with the small number of networks with a higher network/ISP density than Cloudflare (e.g., Netflix, Facebook, Google/YouTube) to come up with an EDNS IP Subnet alternative that gets them the information they need for geolocation".

Well, I might be inaccurate in saying "exactly the same protocol as before", but it is clear that what was available to every webmaster via EDNS, now available only to members of a closed club, via good old EDNS or a proprietary alternative. The latter is more likely, not because of privacy-caring, but because they could now charge it as license fee for using private protocol.
Just like when OOP was the new hotness any one suggesting that maybe OOP wasn't suitable for 100% of projects - used to get shouted down on slash dot.

> The result was code that only a little fraction of the population could understand

Sometimes it's better to have code comments that the little fraction can understand well, for specific purposes in an internal organization. Example, the source code used in French government for property taxes: https://github.com/etalab/taxe-fonciere/blob/master/src/EFIT...
It implies it, but may not mean it.
I would say yes, like Norway. If you have money coming out of nowhere the social stuff doesn't much matter as long as you can keep people from stealing your wealth.
Cloudflare treats everybody the same: they never include client subnet in the EDNS field.

Archive.is is manually having their nameservers respond w/ junk records when queried by Cloudflare’s resolvers.
This, plus I downvote on Reddit and tell Google News to show me less medium.

Screenshot of Biden's claim of 1/160,000 hospitalization rate among fully vaccinated: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E-4NQBFWEAMzATQ?format=png&name=...

Current rate of known non-fatal hospitalization from COVID-19 among the fully vaccinated is 5.1/100,000 which is 8 times the rate Biden mentioned. It is also 3 times what it was on 6/1.

Current rate of known deaths from COVID-19 among the fully vaccinated is 1.2/100,000. Biden did not make a claim about that number. However, the fatality rate is 4 times what it was on 6/1.

Therefore, known hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19 among the fully vaccinated is rising faster than the current number of fully vaccinated individuals.

However, this is hard to interpret because there is a lag between arriving at "fully vaccinated" status and getting infected. Then, there is another lag before one might be hospitalized. Then, there is another lag before one might die.

From the way the rates have been rising, it seems to me we have not arrived at a point where we can deduce a decent guesstimate of real life probability of hospitalization and death among fully vaccinated. It seems we'll be lucky to have the hospitalization rate stabilize around 1/10,000 and death rate stabilize around 3/100,000.

Note the phase3 trials lasted about 5-6 months[1,2] and they did not enroll a lot of people at risk. Now, it seems like, there is consensus that whatever protection the vaccines confer doesn't last more than five or so months past achievement of "fully vaccinated" status.

As for being able to compare with "unvaccinated", we need proper data for that, but there is not much out there.

Statements like "98% of hospitalizations since January 1 were among the unvaccinated" do not mean anything as the composition of the population is not constant lumping everything together removes information needed to properly evaluate what's happening.

Those graphs are different scales, and the welfare spending includes covid responses it appears. If you look at them on the same scale, and ignore the covid spike, defense spending is basically double welfare spending as a percentage of gdp and has been for decades.
> bypass the current anti-cheat

Maybe I'm clueless but as I understand it some of these shooters (e.g. PUBG) are games that you pay for. If one of these commercial cheats gets detected by EAC isn't the result a permaban of your paid for account? And then you have to buy the game again and make a new one, if that's possible at all? Seems like that would be a serious deterrent, although obviously it won't stop everyone. (Encountering a cheater once out of every ten matches is probably acceptable. Encountering one in every other match probably isn't.)
Bill Maher
Processing PGP messages where correctly signed MAC doesn't match the ciphertext should not be an option at all. Message was tapered with, so MUAs have no business processing it.

So unless the attacker can also produce the correct MAC matching the ciphertext, which should not be possible with out knowing a private key, I don't see how this can't be easily fixed just by checking the ciphertext against the MAC.
I think it's just the cost. The Spica is about the smallest rocket that could get a human past the Karman line. It's 12m high and weighs 4000kg. To get into orbit, you'd need something around the size of the Mercury/Atlas rocket, which was 120,000 kg to get a 1500kg capsule to orbit.

Of course, they could do an unmanned mission. The smallest orbital rockets are about 10m tall and 2.5T, for a payload in the 5-10kg range. But I think that is not as interesting for them.
How do you figure? Wikipedia puts it 54th slightly above Lithuania, slightly below the Czech Republic and not very different on non-default measures.

[Edited to add: Aha! I was looking at per-capita GDP not a median, Saudi Arabia does not estimate a median. So, could be anything depending on who you ask]

No Gini coefficent is available for Saudi Arabia, but do you feel like the millions of immigrant workers who can be executed on the say-so of their employers are sharing equally in that great wealth?

Also, to the extent that Saudi Arabia does treat women very poorly, it also treats men very poorly, and children, and almost everybody, even the rich aren't in great shape in Saudi Arabia although they enjoy a wide range of benefits (e.g. like the US, Saudi Arabia executes criminals, but, unlike the US you can agree to pay the victim's family blood money instead, which of course is easy if you're a billionaire)
Where is the study on the detrimental impacts of commuting?
> Could something like this be written from scratch? Sure, but why?

There's lots of reasons: it is simple enough that it can be done in an afternoon. It is a great learning exercise, especially for junior devs. It has hard dependencies on React, Webpack, Babel, Reach Router, PostCSS that can cause you project to break if you're not careful, not to mention the bloat. If you use Vue, Typescript or other bundler you have a lot of redundancy now, and possibly some quirks due to incompatibilities between bundlers. Also there's UI/UX quirks. And it's harder to customise than a plain page.

I'm all for reusing other projects and saving time, but the automatic reflex we have of automatically adding dependencies without considering the downsides becomes very problematic in non-trivial projects.
Reminds me of the rush to condemn the Covington High school students who were accused of harassing the Native American. (As it turns out, the Native American was at fault.) Hordes of enraged, under-informed snowflakes took to the internet to bully the kids. Not very many apologies afterward.

Especially repulsive are the Hollywood light-thinkers and politicians who were duped. Imagine how the kids felt, having celebrities and politicians talk about them that way.
> at the same time the quality of most things is very bad

What an ignorant thing to say. China generally produces high quality stuff, for their own population as well as for the entire world.
Yours is a rare usecase. The metadata is bad for two reasons.

First, simply knowing who mailed whom and when, the powerful adversary can merely visit all participants and urge them to divulge the key and contents. If the adversary didn't know the participants beforehand, they do after seeing the helpful metadata.

Second, even failing to read the mail, the powerful adversary can still apply guilt by association, so merely being on the email is enough to attract their attention.
I recall that even slashdot got slashdotted, which was itself incredible. The admins there at least had the sense to put up a static page with info about the attacks, which is where I first got some details about it after a fellow student in my theory of computation class first notified me (I think he had a pocket radio he was listening to in class).

For those too young to know, being slashdotted was a term for your website going offline due to too much traffic, named for (and primarily used on) the site slashdot.com. Slashdot was the preeminent popular tech/nerd discussion forum of the time, and being linked from a story on slashdot would often direct more attention to your server than it could handle.
Global warming is caused by societal impacts and any effective mechanism for control must be at a societal level. Trying to create yet another personal responsibility dynamic can only exacerbate the problem.

What we do need is more collective pressure on government action.

That would amount to a payout to people who already exercise (in one of the ways that you would accept as proof of exercise), but how much would it move on the margin?

Obesity is a much bigger health concern than COVID in the long term, but I don't think a payout like the one you proposed would do much, if anything, to actually deal with obesity, especially because the issue is that people eat too damn much (I know that is why I am fat).

The author says not to use email encryption but what is the case for sending email in plain text? Is encrypted email detrimental to my privacy in some way that unencrypted email is not? Or if the argument is that encrypted email is useless and no better than unencrypted email (since it is always unencrypted at rest) then what is the point of avoiding it in favor of the alternative? Aren't they equivalent, making the distinction meaningless?

This is my problem with the article. It feels like it suffers from a bit of zero-sum fallacy. The statement here is, "it can be broken therefore it's fundamentally broken." I think it's more useful to think in terms of probabilities. If I disable password authentication for SSH and require public key authentication on my web server, an attacker can still get in by stealing my private key. That isn't a reason to take the opposite approach however - botnets commonly employ password-guessing attacks against entire IP ranges so you're not actually safer by avoiding this practice just because it isn't a perfect solution. There is no silver bullet for security, only endless layers of strategies and adaptations to edge cases.

I did enjoy some of the points about the limitations of email encryption (the email chain example is a great reminder of how security is often more about human behavior than software). But I think the article could have been more compelling had it presented a less dogmatic thesis - perhaps "Email Encryption Won't Save You" or something like that.
Generally it depends on the working set. Massively parallel architectures with shared visibility into a coherent memory space can often more efficiently compute volumetric problems. Doing the same problems on GPUs involve a lot of data shuffling and you end up on the wrong side of Amdahl's law.
Of course Eich becoming a Mozilla higher-up (even before becoming CEO) is why browsers became so complicated and expensive to develop. We would have been better off staying with HTML3 and no javascript.
A lot of these 'idiots' that you're talking about were educated prior to 9-11, so it's not obvious to me that 9-11 had the particular causal relevance that you're suggesting (at least insofar as educational quality).
People don't date online. They meet online and go date in person.
This seems like solid process to get someone from being "non employee" to being an "employee", which is super important. When I initially posted I was thinking more about the "new employee" to "assimilated team mate", without thinking of this very important aspect. Thanks for pointing this out.

Do you have a similar process for this "into team" stage of onboarding? Are the tools you mentioned useful?
Also seems obvious that poorer and less stable societies treat men (in general) quite badly.

I think the economist has to work a bit harder to make a compelling argument for what makes the arrow of causality go in the non-obvious direction.

One of the very few advantages of growing up on the east side of the iron curtain was access to the entirely electronic Japanese arcades and the Russian mechanical games. The volleyball wasn't half bad. There was also a space fighter with a periscope like divece and an array of mirrors. Some of these games were most fine, especially for their time
To add, apparently another reason is that he believes using Cloudflare as your recursive resolver could lead to phishing[0]:

> the same entity which answers your DNS queries is able to issue SSL certs for any domain, so using CloudFlare DNS you never know whether you access the original website or a fishing one

Generally this is protected via certificate transparency+CAA records. If CF's CA were to issue a bad certificate, it'd be blocked by the browser and, should it get out, jeopardize the entire company, likely DigiCert as well given they cross-signed Cloudflare's issuing CA.

It is my understanding that Medium will nag visitors to sign up and/or restrict access to your Medium articles even if you're not enrolled into its partner program.

Is this incorrect?
EDNS is an optional field. Client subnet is an optional part of that optional field. It’s relatively new compared to DNS as a whole, and most “webmasters” don’t make active use of it.

The quote you pulled is about Cloudflare’s efforts to build a better standard. They’re talking to the people with the expertise and interest to build that standard. You’ve inferred “proprietary” and “closed club”, and a ton of motive besides, and you’ve copy-pasted that speculation as if it were fact into multiple comment trees.
The police salvaged it as part of the murder investigation. No idea if it's operational though.
> Cloudflare DNS does not route efficiently with AWS CloudFront anycast DNS. I tracked down insanely slow `rustup update` downloads to incorrect selection of ideal routes to the AWS resources caused by using CF to resolve the DNS.

Please send me details (silverlock at cloudflare) here - AWS has our geofeed.

If you can include resolution details - e.g. dig @1.1.1.1 <cloudfront-host> +nsid - with the incorrect CF results, we can provide them to AWS.

Folks did geo-routing with DNS long before ECS was included, and there’s a privacy trade-off to be had. We’re exploring ways to make this better but there is no free lunch.
Obesity is a crisis in itself, however, when some 100 companies have produced 71% of global emissions[0], it's not individuals, who in total would potentially reduce CO2 emissions by 0.2%, that are causing this. It's these companies.
Precisely. Therefore, society at large should have no business in the reason a woman wants to remove part of her body.

By this logic, why should wanting to remove a fetus with a specific genital be considered any more sexist than wanting to undergo a gender change operation? In both cases, you don't like the reproductive organ in your body and want to get rid of it.
> doesn't understand the operation perfectly IS going to be black-bagged by their local black-ops group

More likely, they simply aren't noteworthy targets. If you rely on PGP to secure your emails, those emails will probably end up not actually secured, but you won't notice because your emails aren't valuable anyways and are probably secured by other stuff, like TLS, and Google's server security.

Why would you want to have something like this translated into code:

Math, in this sense, is already a language, and what you see is already code. (So, basically, all you are talking about is translation, like, from Ruby to Python.)
Great job. You managed to find perhaps the one and only societal issue that's harder to solve than global warming and posit that as a solution.

I think this is conspiratorial.

Texas is not worried about Californian Liberals moving the needle, the political needle is moved by migrants from the South, who will not be encumbered by these kinds of laws.

It's hard to fathom the motivation for this kind of law politically, but I think we shouldn't doubt that it's made in 'good faith' by a lot of the people pushing it.

Salesforce/Benioff thing is mostly an issue of PR and branding though it might actually be beneficial for a very small number of people. This is the guy who has 'Religious People' (Monks) living in his home and virtue signals about it. A bunch of the Pied Piper gags are about him. That said, I think it's also probably in mostly good faith as well, I'm sure he's personally upset by the law.

Edit: I should say that it's not beyond reason that politicians might be thinking this even if it's really irrational, they do all sorts of wacky things. By and large I think Texas likes the ingress and the people ingressing there I think have some idea of what Texas is.
That's from a self-reported telephone survey.

ie You phone people (do the immigrant "workers" on a Saudi building site have phones? Are they allowed to answer a call while working?) and you ask "How much does your household make each year?" and they make up whatever they want but you write that down, and you hope that the ludicrous high numbers and ludicrous low numbers don't make a big difference to the resulting outcome, which is probably wrong, but unlike official statistics (which Saudi Arabia of course doesn't keep) you at least got a number.
You could not make this argument even 10 years ago, when you could absolutely make a sites on any of wordpress, tumblr, yahoo or blogspot completely free. These days there are even more choices ranging from WYCIWYG (Squarespace & the like) to absolutely free full CI/CD-ed platforms (heroku, Zeit, GitHub pages...). It's not like there is a duopoly on web hosting.
