here is another of footage of road damage.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/coquihalla-t...

I think many people reading this don't realize that there are road closures ... and then these.

It's not "you shouldn't drive today" and we have some flaggers chewing gum, it's "100s of meters of road no longer exist" kind of damage. Do that in enough places at the same time and it will be months before roads are back to normal. Enough time for severe supply shortages in many places.
I don't think dead code elimination would be the end-all to that problem either.

Yes, it reduces the space cost of having dead code in your build artefact, but it doesn't solve the problem of having dead code lying around during development.

The more code is in your dependencies, the more effort you have in auditing - even if it's only to ensure that code is actually dead - and doesn't cause any unexpected side effects or other behaviour in your program.
Exactly right, transactions being the killer/most common one.

And the proposed solutions of hooks, AOP etc all start down the road of scattering actual logic across files and methods making the code harder to reason about which seems to be the worst part of overeager abstraction.

The library Automapper from C# is another place I run into this a lot. At its core it simply maps from domain to dto properties but you soon end up needing awful unwieldy configs and magic. I'd rather have a few hundred lines of obvious mapping than ever work with automapper again.

Every exploit listed for my router (tplink Archer A7) has no "affected version" listed nor indications if it has been patched, but clicking through to the CVEs indicates all have been remediated. As near as I can tell this website is just scraping CVEs, poorly, in order to sell their security services (which consist, at least in part, of an email reminder to rotate your router password...seriously?).
My best productivity trick is when I sit down to build something I write a note. I define the problem I want to solve, then I define the solution I have in mind. This tends to give me time to think through the different paths, and I finish the note up with a rough list of todos so that I have a way to get started immediately.

I find writing all these things out as if Im explaining it to someone else allows me to get all my thoughts in a line. Also gives a good foundation for the PR when im done.

It's older now, but for several years I used a Buffalo N300 router which came pre-flashed running DDRWT out of the box:

https://www.buffalotech.com/products/airstation-highpower-n3...

I say "used" because my main router has been updated to an AC1900 solution, but it's still kicking, I'm just running it as an access point. Unfortunately, both it and their updated AC1200 solution:

https://www.buffalotech.com/products/airstation-ac1200-gigab...

are discontinued.

Also, while it's pre-flashed with open-source software, it's not Open Source Hardware.
Hi Evan, I'm happy you found this comment heartwarming. Your work on Rubinius (and even more - Puma!) was really amazing, it had a big influence on my career
That's not quite it. The power of a QC comes from modeling an exponentially large probabilistic state space using entanglement and superposition. The operations performed by a QC are also different, they can be analog (arbitrary rotations), but circuit depths (i.e. the number of operations) are still expected to be polynomial.

The difference is that the probabilistic state space uses probability amplitudes, which are complex valued and can be positive or negative, allowing for constructive and destructive interference over the probabilities tied to each state. Orchestrate the right kind of interference, and for some problems, you have an algorithm that outputs a solution to that problem with (relatively high probability) in time that, depending on the problem, may be exponentially faster. Examples of those problems include prime factorization/discrete logarithms (Shor's algorithm) and ones in quantum simulation (hence the interest in QC by chemists, physicists, etc.)
Yeah - on one hand you would need to use this "quickly" to help with IPv4 exhaustion before it becomes irrelevant. On the other hand (as you said) trying this too quickly will just mean poor routability.

From the draft:

The Internet community can use network probing
with any of several measurement-oriented platforms to investigate how
usable these addresses are at any particular point in time, as well
as to localize medium-to-large-scale routing problems. [...]
Any network operator to whom such addresses are made available by a future
allocation will have to examine the situation in detail to determine
how well its interoperability requirements will be met.

I now also see my comment above is quite negative. Don't get me wrong, the proposal seems technically neat and well researched. However I just don't see it as practical, and even if it was I wouldn't like it to happen and just delay the inevitable pain.

I assume it was like iso1631 commented, that before the upgrade they truncated it before hashing it. In any case, using a password (=encrypting database) was optional, so my reaction to this experience was to remove the password and move the entire application into a VeraCrypt container.

I've looked into exactly that sort of setup for a previous job a few years ago and the problem is that these probes don't exist for every nutrient and the ones that do exist tend to be very expensive. It wouldn't be a cost-effective apparatus unless it was set up with one probe station metering the outflow to the whole of an industrial-scale greenhouse.

I'm sure people do that, but the fact that they only have one password to remember, and (hopefully) don't have to rotate it would hopefully deter them
it'll be interesting to see if constitutiondao raise enough funds to buy the constitution this week (one of the eleven first editions). i think that is an interesting example of something going from private ownership to being owned by a large group (currently 12000 members in the discord) who will then vote on where it goes on display etc.

They started as a group last friday, so far raised $5.7m, looking to get to $20m by thursdays auction. I don't think any other process could move so quickly in a few days, from a joke to being taken seriously so rapdily. its memes all the way down.

I had a talk with the head of security at my credit union and told him I was within this much distance of ending my relationship with them over the fact that their password rules were so tough.

I pointed out that there were some banks that had let me keep the same (securely generated) password for 15 years.

American Express tried to sell me on a deposit account to go with my card but they told me I'd need to make a new account to log in. I told them that one reason I kept my AmEx was that they didn't make me change my password every time I wanted to log in and if I had to add a second login it wasn't worth it to me.
Targeting casual use was the key. Even in the "professional" world almost nobody uses the Office applications to their full extent. The people who can are using more appropriate software. Accountants have Intuit and Peachtree, Anyone working in graphics, design or typesetting will use the appropriate Adobe app or competitor. Power Point is probably the only member of the suite that doesn't have a more "professional" equivalent. But there are definitely people who are more adept with it in the business world.

Office was probably feature complete in its second or third iteration. The only substantive changes 99% of users notice are in interface overhauls.
Goodness yes. When I was in physics, there were a lot of these philosophers who had some kind of real problem with (special) relativity, like it had swerved and driven over their dog on purpose. I'm not talking about the spackling of idiots who were under the impression that Michelson-Morley was performed precisely once, but folks who just found it antithetical to their personal outlooks, aside from the space opera types whose dreams are cruelly crushed underfoot by c (no exotic matter has yet called Lazarus forth from his tomb). Normally, one could dispel them with some holy water and a copy of Dr. Will's Was Einstein Right? but some had a tenacity to them which had long transformed from a virtue to a vice.
Buffalo does this as well, and there's a variety of PFSense hardware available.

In PFSense hardware you can even find things with atom processors or laptop tier processors - which are going to be more power-hungry than ARM but also a lot faster, and x86 means everything is bog-standard drivers/etc and Just Works. Although I suppose with the world we live in, perhaps not having your web-facing device have speculative execution would be better.

At that level of cost, many people also go to standalone WAPs (although of course there's no reason you can't use DD-WRT/OpenWrt/Tomato to turn an old router into a WAP as well).

Some hardware I've seen recommended for PFsense before:

Package content can't be compared to a repository.

1. npm doesn't record the repo, branch, or commit so it doesn't know what to compare with.

2. Published content is usually a transformation of the repo content -compiled, minified, bundled. You would have to run the same transformation on the repo source and it would have to be a deterministic build.

npm could require that popular packages are published via GitHub actions, then it could strongly associate the published version with a source commit and the build that produced the artifact.

This has some downsides like tie in to the GitHub ecosystem. Maybe that could be offset with sponsored builds?
Well yes, that’s exactly my point. I _want_ to be able to reuse crappy passwords because just typing a password is still simpler than dealing with password managers.
In this sense computers and language, for example, are also not a property of natural world. So you can't have sciences that study and/or use computers or languages?
Also: "This vulnerability existed in the npm registry beyond the timeframe for which we have telemetry to determine whether it has ever been exploited maliciously."
I wish there were more Firefox forks. I would love to have some of the features of Vivaldi, but running with Firefox's underlying engine. But that just isn't a thing, as far as I'm aware.
So 80% of these vulnerabilities are on Netgear routers, and nearly all of them are rated as High severity. That's really impressive. I don't think I'll buy a Netgear router ever again.
I wonder if, at the same level of technology, quantum and classical computers end up performing similarly — do you need exponentially less noise for more qubits? If so, it seems similar to me to requiring exponentially more classical compute power to equal it, and they kinda end up equivalent?
Sadly I'd also qualify most of these as things that consumers are overly excited about but will never reach their expected potential (at least in our lifetimes) due to technological limits. Same as flying cars, 3D TVs, 3D printing, household robots, holograms, AR glasses.

"I needed more room so I moved from the garden shed to a local castle."

All my passwords are passphrases, randomly generated and stored in my password manager. Usually 10 words, for about 130 bits of entropy. EG PledgeRoutineSuitableBunkhouseExceptionCremeReassureChildishPhrasingNuclear, which is 76 ASCII characters but only 10 symbols.

They're stored in a password manager, but they're typeable if needed. My "security question" answers (mother's maiden name, etc) are generated the same way, unique per use, and also stored in my password manager.

Most sites don't need 128 bits of entropy. But things like banking or subscriptions should have at least 112 bits of entropy. And it's easy to just set the generator to 10 words by default.

I think it's the opposite of what Tolstoy wrote:

Why blame Christians for the poor security practices of these adult sites? If government IDs are being used to verify the legitimate use of adult sites then the data should be kept in a secure fashion. In this case, ElasticSearch should not have been left wide open and all PII should be encrypted at rest. Further it's hardly just a Christian Fundamentalist issue. It's not as if the average person wants minors to be able to post or get access to pornography without any kind of hurdle or verification of identity. As for Mastercard and Visa — being associated with fraud/trafficking can be incredibly damaging to a brand and network fees. They are trying to protect their financial interest which is one their duties to their investors. I'm not saying Christians weren't involved or that they don't have a stake, but based on your comments it seems more like you have a bone to pick than an interest in effective policy or security practice.
Passwords often protect things like random niche forum boards from grief more than they protect the user's sensitive information in such cases. 3rd party auth is a great solution but a lot of people don't want to tie their "real" accounts to the low tier sites. MFA is of even greater help for low tier site's pains but if you can't get someone to use a decent password or link their identity how likely are you to set up 2FA for it? In the case of "free" services type signups they want you to onboard your information or link your identity and an account workflow is the easiest way to do that as it's a small percentage that will go through the trouble of burner or temp emails and fake info yet at least you have an easy way to rate limit such users from hijacking your "free" offerings.

Also you're not supposed to be memorizing anything for logins. At the very least you should be letting your browser use the randomly generated password and save it to the browser password store if you're not using a full blown password manager.
Debt should be for doing interesting things. Like if you are expanding your business. It shouldn't be needed in the steady state. Poor people don't do interesting "events" economically be definition! Truly, to be poor is "stuff happens to you", not "you happen to stuff". The vast majority of people should not need loans.

If we want people to be more "creative" we should achieve that with firstly with more leisure team for hobbies. No faux-entrepreneurship hustle culture. No trying to "acculture the poor" with extrinsic rewards, when rich kids have the luxury of not having the intrinsic rewards beaten out of them. Let people have hobbies. Let people involve their neighbors and pool their UBIs for the bigger-scale ones. Let no one need debt to survive.

We should go "common core" on calculus. The essence to understanding economics right is stocks vs flows, and even if people never learn "this method of solving integrals, they should be able to see a graphed function, and draw it's rough derivative and integral. It's an essential skill. They should also know how to ride bikes and kinesthetically learn this stuff on hills. It is an essential toolkit of thinking, no symbols or formalism needed or wanted.

Fair. But if the site doesn't list vulnerabilities in older firmware, then someone stumbling upon it that hasn't kept their router up to date won't see their actual vulnerabilities listed.

If the router allows 3rd-party firmware and well-maintained ROMs are available, why avoid the hardware (unless you don't want to apply the upgrades)?

Cable modems typically do not allow this; only the cable provider is able to apply oem firmware updates.

I totally disagree with this. Big social policy involves/requires taxation, and a robust debate around what kind of tax regime we want to have in order to support those social policy objectives. The Fed can't collect taxes, and it doesn't involve robust debate because it's not democratic.
