Kubernetes serves to allow a team within an organisation to build a PaaS that's customized for your organisation. You do this because 1. Baking in your organizational defaults and opinions reduces work and cognitive load for your engineers and 2. A PaaS is too expensive at scale (compared to IaaS), especially given what you get isn't tailored to your org.

It would be very unlikely to find a bachelor's degree program in the United States that would cost less than $10k per year, particularly when cost of housing and other expenses is considered.

For example, this is the tuition and expenses for CSU East Bay, one of the less expensive public universities in California: https://www.csueastbay.edu/financialaid/prospective-students...

A tuition of about $7k balloons to over $20k when the cost of books, housing, etc. are added.
Note, some people do have genetic conditions that affect their ability to take IQ tests - these include Down syndrome, phenylketonuria, even IBS if you’re giving them a test without bathroom breaks.

The point of knowing this is so you can treat it. You can raise the IQ of a phenylketonuric by not feeding them Diet Coke. It doesn’t seem like the HBD people would be happy seeing this, because they just want to prove someone is inherently superior and someone else isn’t.
The lack of integration with family sharing has made AirTags mostly useless for me.
You should look into Shamir’s key sharing algorithm, where you can break a private key into N parts, M of which need to be recovered to restore the key. Projects like Argent, I believe, tried to accomplish this in a user-friendly app (you chose a bunch of locations to put the shards like the cloud or your friends). It’s technically possible, but it becomes a social problem more than a mathematical problem.

great post.

That verizon JS is surprisingly not very obfuscated so if anyone is interested or just curious to hack around this is a great one to look at!

It looks like they are checking notificationPermission for notifications. stores (this.permissionStatus = "") & (this.notificationPermission = "")

I don't see any requestPermission() in the verizon js. So it's probably not the culprit?

I also don't think that would make sense for them to do it. it's probably a bad faith advertiser.

I'm not sure if cross origin permissions requests can be blocked by the parent safe frame yet? It looks like Chrome is proposing but I can't find any info on if it has been implanted? [1] [2]

I really enjoy fingerprinting. Just feels like 'hacking' in the basic sense of poking around with things. Since I don't know enough to make actual complicated real vulnerability hacking. I've built a pretty big js file for our own ads analytics & tracking.

The verizon js has most basic common things but one that sticks out as cool is cssSelectorCheck & cssRuleCheck checks a few like div:dir(ltr) probably for eastern languages, and stuff like -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale.

I also like the idea of adding HONEYPOT_TAGS looks like they are adding a button to check for auto click publisher fraud. But man they should have obfuscated that name....

One interesting idea to expand on the css testing they have started to use a small amount.

I've played with is placing actual unique CSS features and @supports in styles and then measuring them. Maybe use variables pass to js. Also a couple @media sizes to see if it's lying about size. Can also measure if css/svg animation is paused for view ability.

There are a ton of new css features that are implemented in different browser versions so likely high entropy. Also would love to learn paintWorklet just to know it for design and also seems like a big surface area (svg too).

I'm kind of surprised they aren't doing a RTCPeerConnection to try and get any IPs and it doesn't look like they are doing actual webgl / audio prints.

seeing the mime type checks is validating to me. that's the latest check I added it's pretty fast to execute i have something like 150 different codes/mime types loop through lol. Verizon is more sensible in checking only a couple lmfao

I'm saying you would use `ls | grep ...` in situations where you're transforming the output but use `exa` when you specifically care about the files or their metadata.

That is, use ls when you you don't care about the direct output of the list file command, use exa when you do.

> We're not asking Google to stop advertising altogether

I think my parent was: "No one needs ads. Not arbitrary JS ads, not declarative ads, not personalised ads, not any ads."
I don’t agree with the definition of “human research” you are using. For example, Cornell IRB defines it as 1) extracting data from humans OR 2) collecting private information. The email collects information from a human, therefore, by 1) it is human and subject to IRB review. My understanding of the intent of IRB is to govern any research actions that directly or indirectly interact with a human. Even simple surveys or scraping reddit needs IRB.

For the deception, you have to weigh the pros and cons. The harm isn’t very high but 1) it undermines public trust of research and 2) includes the participant in a study they did not consent for. The participant is not getting paid for their time and is in fact getting indirectly threatened/coerced with legal action.

The IRB board of course makes all these calls. But it’s not “obvious” that the research is ethical. For example, research can be unethical _with participant consent_ if participants are offered too much money, because people will do _very_ bad things for large sums of money, so it’s basically coercion. In this case, there is an implication of legal action if the participant does not participate and they may not have an option to withhold their participation.

Consider the alternative: “Hi, I am a researcher from Princeton. For your time answering these 4 questions, you will receive $50 and an opportunity to advance our understanding of ____.”

Paywalled. From an earlier article in Forbes:

> Using real neurons avoids several other difficulties that software-based neural networks have. For instance, to get artificial neural networks to start learning well, their programmers usually have to engage in a laborious process of manually adjusting the initial coefficients, or weights, that will be applied to each type of data point the network processes. Another challenge is to get the software to balance how much it should be trying to explore new solutions to a problem versus relying on solutions the network has already discovered that work well.

> “All these problems are completely eluded if you have a system that is based on biological neurons to begin with,” Friston said.

The other main advantage is low power consumption.

> AlphaGo, the deep-learning system DeepMind created to play Go and which beat the world’s best human player in that ancient strategy game in 2016, consumed one megawatt of power while playing the game, enough to power about 100 homes for a day, according to an estimate by technology company Ceva. By contrast, the human brain consumes about 20 watts of power, or 50,000 times less energy than AlphaGo used.

However, it's not clear whether these hybrid chips will have similarly low power consumption.
Looking at the moon landing and the Manhattan project, you hear about the very few PhDs on the program. They were outnumbered at least 100:1 by skilled tradespeople who manufactured components of those programs. None of those manufacturing jobs need a college degree, just time and focus, which a college degree detracts from by taking 4 more years of your life. You should look at the LHC for a modern example. Even these feats of science need a small minority of people employed in them to be trained scientists.
that's not punishment, that jealousy of someone else getting a windfall or relief. A real 'punishment' would set you to a worse position than you had before.

If you are going to focus on other people getting windfall they don't deserve, there are much better places to focus your energies - I am sure anyone here has a few candidates, but in UK we had government award multimillion dollar contracts for COVID supplies to companies started a month ago, who copied their terms and conditions from a pizza delivery company.

The DevOps team can often be the team that handles Compliance, Security and Audit for the platform.

Then there is the infrastructure/deployment team and finally the developers.

At least in larger organizations i think that is a common way of doing things.
I don't blame the devops guys though, I think this is a corporate thing as teams have to follow procedures and devops are not an exception (to waive some rules for us). I just hope it's a lot easier if we can just use a VM instead, but that would need to go through security certification.

I wonder how other companies deal with this kind of issues, eventually my previous team decided to host the app on one of the laptops and tell clients to visit a "192.168.0.X:port".

Yeah, that might be a more accurate title at this point.

Part of the reason that the name DevOps was chosen almost 10 years ago when it was started was to help signal to the wider org the cultural shift we were undertaking, and that the expectation was going to be for devs to own their systems all the way through production.

At this point, we would probably change the name, but the team is quite attached to the name after 10 years. We actually did try to rename the team, but everyone still called it the devops team and we gave up on the change.
No scientific data unfortunately, but this BBC article explains that even though it's the same substance each time, the effect develops further over multiple doses, and goes on to describe what that means using metaphors.

I think so. We don't have tablets, but we let our daughter play plenty of videogames. There is no hard limit, the limit is when we notice herself "coasting" instead of playing, but in those cases it means she's bored,so she happily explores alternatives.
Playing an engaging videogame has the result of her deeply describing what she is doing (yes it's very annoying to the parent that has to acknowledge every detail, but it's a price I'm very happy to pay), as well as stimulating her duplo-building skills ("I've built a level for Yoshi!")

I'll skip the obligatory "CARnage at Christmas" comments/news articles although gosh the headline almost writes itself and just stick in my tuppence.

I get the idea/concept behind restricting the rollout to high safety score drivers but...

Wouldn't it be a great idea to release it to extremely low scoring drivers? That way Tesla can (with the telemetry) show how many times their system intervened and prevented x number of crashes?

I mean sure - that's some 'out of the box' thinking right there but since Elon Musk is never one to shy away from the press headlines just think of the Tesla PR copy ..... "Tesla FSD saved x number of lives this holiday season".

Windows 95 had a native TCP/IP stack. Lan Manager had it from 1990 (a bunch of that expertise came from hires from Finland). And Windows NT had it in 1994. In '95 everyone was using TCP/IP and pretty much was standard at M$. I was there. It's true the browser didn't kick into high gear until '97 after Microsoft decide set-top boxes might not be information access solution of the near future. Microsoft was a little slow to admit that the Internet might win but eventually they came 'round and put some effort into it. Interestingly, both Gopher and Mosaic came out of Midwest universities in early '90s - great stuff, fun times.
I don't think the limiting factor in child abductions is a few hundred dollars in the kidnapper's possession.
Fish sausage is already pretty popular. McDonald's Filet-o-fish, salmon cakes, fish sticks etc are all _roughly_ sausage. I suppose it depends on how strongly you feel about the casing part of the sausage definition, but for my money "ground up meat (and binders) in a shape" captures the essence of sausage well enough.
Personally I think it's pretty great that I can write Dockerfiles, run them locally, and call it the day because this is also what runs in production.

So basically I have no clue what the dude is talking about - we have a great setup which is x10 better than what we had before.

No?
Helper scripts using ls can involve lots of items and recursion, so the slowness can go exponential. A serious replacement candidate needs to be as fast or faster.

Maybe a performance based execution of exa could be crafted that ignores some of the eye candy or whatever is sucking up the cycles.
Also, government regulations such as HIPAA explicitily force you to have separation of duties, so true DevOps is against them. Developer being able to push their code to production can earn you some hefty fine at the next audit.
"Those explanations that survive many attempts at disproof become accepted"

How can you experiment human origin?
Yes, this is a very fair question to ask. Of course, on the one hand, I could just say "this was fair game". The "point" of choosing to play on this server, is that it is THE no-rules server. The people who stick around more than a few months are the ones who accept that anything will eventually be griefed. Sometimes people call this the "sandcastle mentality", which means that a player accepts the destructive nature of 2b2t, and learns to live with it. Its name comes from building sandcastles on beaches: no one builds a sandcastle believing or expecting that it will last forever. The waves will always wash it away eventually, or someone else will break it. The only thing standing between your base and "the waves" is that no one knows where it is.

One way to think about it, is that in "normal" Minecraft servers, it's you versus everyone, but in an anarchy server that allows hacks, it's you versus the server software. There have been many hacks to locate other players, like following the trails that they leave in the world, that you can only see if you inspect some specific bits in chunk packets from the server. Perhaps they posted a screenshot that shows bedrock, which you can brute force their location from in a few hours/days on a GPU with OpenCL that simulates Minecraft terrain generation. Nocom was similarly "fair game", in that it only used the Minecraft protocol, and stayed within the "bounds" of talking to 2b2t with Minecraft packets and extracting information from that.

All that being said, it's still plainly the case that people put a ton of time into their bases, and no matter how much moral sleight of hand and cope you apply, it's still kicking over someone's sandcastle. When it comes to actually traveling to these locations and raiding them, our aim in that campaign was pretty much solely to amass a large stash of items/blocks for ourselves for the future. I would pass on bases by-default, only handing them along to be raided if there was bad faith construction (e.g. swastikas), or if most of the builders were known to be naughty. The main campaign was against standalone item stashes. These do take some time to create (by having exploiting past item duplication glitches), but they don't really have any creative expression in the same way that a base does. I have no logical argument for why I say that the same amount of hours invested in artistically making a build is more morally valuable than duplicating building blocks, it's just what feels about right. During the time when I was involved, we passed up hundreds of bases just because there was something actively being built there, and essentially only hit places that were just rows of chests placed on the ground in the world.
Software is never done. It can only be abandoned.

There are projects that change slowly but they do change nonetheless unless they are no longer used.
Having been on the receiving end of waiting a long time to get a patch for a actively being exploited zero day - the point is, even if you want to fix it yourself (which I desperately did), you can’t.

If it’s some important piece of software you also can’t stop or the business stops - well, you and everyone else is just going to take it in the pants.

Many enterprises are in exactly this bind. And support contracts only get you so far.
