Last time I looked at this, you could quantify randomness, but not very well. The best way I found was to compress the random output as compression rate inversely correlates to randomness.
The scholastics read Aristotle and the development of Western philosophy sprung from pretty much antique sources, AFAIK. It's logical, I guess, that the dark ages of Europe were the golden age of somewhere else. But it does not follow that a shift in center of gravity of power justifies talking about a shift of a center in terms of legacy and what became "modernity", the latter which I suppose would motivate a certain perspective on history.
Diversity and intersectionality!

And the alternative is that you sign up for a Meta account so your info will just be shared anyway. It was a while ago they made that announcement and it hasn’t happened. I was going to get the Quest 2 but I came to the realization I don’t want to support that company so went with the Valve Index. Sure it doesn’t have wireless but I’m not going to take it anywhere anyway.
This isn't true. The browser extension (on all major browsers) allows use of self-hosted instances. I'm using it right now.
I've never seen a "share with family member" feature with a browser storing passwords. Also, this means I and all of my family members need to use the same web browser.

Using a 1password family plan is the only way I've been able to wrangle my parents across their slew of iOS, macs, Android, Windows, and Linux machines to stop typing in passwords.
Deep love is practiced, not an accident.

I've found that when I'm honest about my feelings, even the messy ones, honest about my thoughts, even if they don't paint me in a good light, my spouse hears me and eventually, accepts me. And it makes me fall in love all over again.

It frees up my consciousness. I don't have to do the mental dance of "oh, you can say this, but don't say that. Say it this way, not that way. Don't mention this."

And I have to do my best to afford her the same.

You have the choice of either a 10 minute, awkward conversation, putting everything in on the table. But having your conscious cleared. Zero parallel threads running in the back of your mind. :)

Or keep these thoughts in the back of your head for months/years, where you expend mental energy suppressing them, sacrificing your creativity, closeness, and vitality. You'll find yourself getting mad at seemingly superficial stuff when the honest truth is because you're seething or ashamed or afraid, with so much to say.

Your choice. Choose the courageous path. Surrender the outcome.

I think most of us are feeling some schadenfreude because the poster is ripping-off a law-firm - but the disappointment for me is that (for the most part) (s)he seems to be treating it as an 8-hour day where (s)he simply skips work - which I would definitely find totally soul-destroying.

I saw in the follow-up comments that there are is some "passion project" that's being worked on, but apparently it wasn't 'relevant' enough to mention it in the original post, and came under the miscellaneous "computer games or do whatever"
My first would go for days without pooping, some where around three mnths old? You could tell because she’d get testier and testier each day, till the day, then back to our happy little baby for a few more days. Woe if you didn’t have a well stocked diaper bag on the day.

Even if the data aren’t strictly needed, having them makes an interesting, important but difficult job a little easier to bear.
Often you don't need someone at the pinnacle of a field to teach you, you need someone who is just a little ahead of you. I still remember in uni one of the best tutors was a phd student.

MC to me always looked a bit like the Discovery Channel: interesting stuff, but will you really be any better afterwards? It's interesting that maybe the thing that satisfies her the most was the cooking, in other words the class where you actually practice the thing you're learning. How many of the other teachers even asked for that?

Say you had a programming class on MC. (Maybe they do?) Do they tell you to actually write code and debug it? Are there exercises? What I'm getting at is sometimes the teacher doesn't teach, but the student learns.
There isn't one. I will continue to say this, people will continue to ignore it, and the computing ecosystem for the average person will continue to be locked down by corporations that do not ignore it. Free, open, and privacy respecting technology will remain irrelevant outside enthusiast techie circles.

It's a bit like climate change. Scientists will warn, people will ignore, and then we will abandon Miami and will probably blame the scientists.
Nothing "disqualifies you from all scientific discussion"; ideas that are provably wrong get tossed out, and if you think she's going to be such a frequent source of provably wrong ideas as to derail the discussion, then say so.
>>- How is a defect like an aged battery different than a non-updated software?

>>- Why is it inmoral for a company to limit your ability to swap a battery but totally okay to not give you the code so that you can patch their software to work on your machine?

I agree it is NOT okay to prevent access to the code, although that does NOT mean that I'd require release of source code.

So, while I don't have your source code secrets, I should not be prevented by crypto or law from analyzing, editing, or replacing the object code. I should be prevented from selling at scale trivially modified copies.

This is not unlike trade secret protection of parts. I have a carbon fiber composites shop, and I make some rather uniquely interesting high-performance parts with interesting chemistries and nanotechnology. If you want to take one and examine it with an electron microscope and try to figure out what I did, fine, but good luck to ya; hope you're having fun. There's also nothing preventing someone from selling a competing part of the same shape.

The problem with no RTR is that the companies become extractive without adding commensurate value - it allows them to charge on both ends.

If a company wants to maintain complete control over the equipment, then fine, lease it only. GM actually did this with their first electric cars in the 90s. But these companies want to sell it full price up front and then also extract a guaranteed high-cost lease-like ongoing revenue stream for the life of the machine. Many software companies have switched from a sell-the-package model to SAAS subscriptions, but this is like you have to buy the package AND the subscription.

>>That “only” is doing a lot of work there. That “only” is the work of a lot of people who deserve to get good salaries too. Why should their work become a commodity while programmers keep their “machines” protected with the laws for art?

I've got no problem with good salaries, I do have a problem with monopolistic extraction because you have the customer tied over a barrel and a gun to their head.

When there is a legitimate market of repairs, it at least provides options for the customer, and is likely to keep the Factory Authorized channel somewhat reasonable. Just doing all warranty repairs through the factory channel and voiding the warranty for independent repairs can keep all those factory channel people in fine salaries. Meanwhile everything from high-end tuners to el-cheapo-fix-it shops can thrive and customers can have options, all without threatening the core business, and even enhancing it.

What you are making me think about is that there should be MORE of this capability in software also. Allowing trivial copying and reselling is obviously obscene and unsustainable (see open-source developers getting shat-upon by the $$multimillion companies they support for free). However, perhaps requiring rights to an API and plug-in capability or the ability to create derivative works should be available. Certainly we should have rights to reuse and modify abandoned software, especially if it requires a server to run.
Computers have existed for nearly 70 years. Bitcoin has existed for what... 13 years?

While the GBP value has changed over the course of 600 years, (of course it would, peoples and governments change in that same timeframe) hasn't a BTC as well?

If I sell an item worth $60,000 USD for 1 BTC, the next day the 1 BTC could be worth $40 or $50,0000 USD. Surely such volatility cannot be useful for a common currency.

"Stable coins exist" - and yes, they do - but if a stable coin is pegged to a currency, why do you not just use said currency?
Is that not a failure of whoever is tasked with finding efficiencies? Seems like the employee should be given their job :).
Yeah, but... The noise! I just can't handle spinning rust anymore for this alone even if the $/GB ratio is still so much better.

Consumer SATA SSDs are plentiful enough that I'm just going all in on flash when I revamp my server and do an 8 drive (+1 hotswap) RAID10 build or whatever. I don't need +60TB or anything and 8-9 drives is about the limit you can find on high end consumer mobos I think...

And this is why users protect themselves with services like Firefox Relay, something Dustin Ingram, a Python Software Foundation Director, doesn't appear to understand [1] or care. My email was leaked in this breach, along with many others, an email I used to really value but one I've since relegated to the dumpster fire of "spam slot" because I learned my lesson too late.

Dustin has now locked that GitHub to only previous contributors so users are once again left voiceless and powerless in the continuing war against their privacy.

We've been thinking of the business owners and the children [2] for decades now. It's time to start thinking of the users, people like you and me who are exploited constantly for everything they have to be unceremoniously discarded in a waste heap once they've been used up.

> Also they are wrong factually. Google Analytics is not illegal in Austria. The court made this clear. Transmitting the IP without anonymizeIp is. Also transmitting PII data unencrypted to GA us (but GA does forbid that in their TOS as well).

That's some very interesting information. So, the real answer to the question of whether it's illegal in Austria or not is a "MAYBE", and it is quite easy to make it legal? If so, that should be on this site.
I'm not sure you understood my point: I'm arguing against this not for it. "Because children" and "because terrorism" don't trump everything else. If they did we'd have always-on cameras in our homes so the government needs to argue why the loss of privacy is justified and their stated reasons are insufficient.
That's fair, I could see if you wanted to try a bunch of games first. I have to admit I take them up on the 3 month trial every year or to do just that. But I always do the trial with the intention of playing a bunch of games and then never play one! Hah! But that is not their fault, it is mine.
Two major reasons for the backlash:

1: 1Password already backhanded users once for business reasons. They used to be a nice, local password manager that synced with dropbox or your choice of filesystem. Then they added cloud support and used dark patterns to force adoption of a subscription based cloud service while making the local version harder and harder to use. At some point I gave up, I’m not even sure it’s possible to use locally anymore. It might be that the marginal utility is worth it, but forcing my hand also broke my trust

2: This is now the path of the majority of American corporations, most especially high growth vc funded; make something awesome, grow, extract profits, die. It doesn’t really matter whether it’s burritos or password managers, we’ve seen this pattern one too many times.
I don’t know why the assumption that crypto revolutionizes a model that already exists. Crypto first needs proliferation as a payment and identity solution, which perhaps is already a baked in assumption for many

An interesting case study is the original release of Diablo 3. All items could be traded on the real money auction house, and top items were incredibly rare and thus also expensive; I had a friend who farmed an entire summer and used the proceeds to buy a MacBook for college.

That said, blizzard removed the system in place of one with nontradable items where it’s easier to get decent drops.
They do, but Australia has also recent legislation requiring backdoored encryption iirc

Maybe it’s because Bitwarden’s UX is actually quite good? I found 1password’s to be substantially worse when I tried it a few years ago, especially on non-Apple devices. Perhaps that’s changed, but for something so heavily touted for being well designed, I found it to be very disappointing.

> Make a better product and beat them,

It's going to be hard when your own hands are tied by legislation but your competitor just does as they see fit.

Also them having the resources to drag out any court ruling for years and years ensures there is no level playing field whatsoever.

So yeah, maybe companies should be called out for thinking they are above the law just because they can afford endless legal battles.

Yes, unfortunately a lot of implementations for this break password managers. It doesn't have to be that way and there are ways to fix it. But it complicates things a bit. And it's a pattern that actually gets copied a lot by products that definitely don't do any form of SSO.

Also, a typical opendid flow or SSO would not actually require an email field at all. So splitting the screens is kind of redundant in that case. E.g. a Github signin would be done with a button click and a few redirects.

With 1Password 8, they shared news that they were moving from native (mac) apps to an Electron UI/frontend with a Rust backend. They did an AMA on Reddit, but didn't show up for a while and got hammered by their users. Their refrain, until Dave Teare showed up, was "but it will be on Rust and the backend will be faster" and didn't acknowledge why users might be upset with the move from Native to Electron apps.

> They do. I learned a lot thanks to them.

Since you’re still not following, why do people post blog articles? Why do people write research papers? Just to get the info out there? No, they do it because it gives them some advantage over others. FAANGs won’t hire you without proof of knowledge. The other side of it is SEO. You want to exist on google you have to look like an expert, so you write a lot of articles to increase your score. Both of these situations are driven by money, not by some desire to help others.

> My degree that does not exist?

Fine, then you’re essentially saying that all the learning you did was free for you. It required no effort at all, all you had to do was read. If your self taught, or went to school, you know this is just dumb.

So back to the point, did you or did you not work for the knowledge you have? Or did it just get matrixed into you?
No. That is in fact not how the law works at all.
I’m a single user who needs to have my passwords available on my work laptop (Chrome), my own desktop (Firefox), and my phone (Safari, iOS Apps)

No built-in browser password manager will handle that.

Generate two random 32 length strings. For the sake of this example, let them be 2quvs7jriTXQK8sFv4LzBZRtSN9hqp9q and qFTNX4f5sduaLYShWx96EyZw9ZRNLmqY.

Designate the first to "heads" and the second to "tails". Every time you're prompted to login with a password, flip a coin and enter that designated password. If it fails, then enter the second password.

For those interested in basic cryptography, feel free to point out the major and obvious flaw in this approach.

You named the closest solution we have to the Chrome hegemony- Firefox. It's a fully-featured browser that's open-source and maintained by a nonprofit organization.

> But if the US starts demanding data localization, the Internet is fucked.

Not... really? The internet (defined as the infrastructure and non-commercial websites) will be fine.

Corporations that collect and monetize data will just have to jump through more hoops (and many already do this because of the GDPR and Europe's general feelings about personal data). So they'll be fine too, even if they gripe a bit about it.

The only folks who would really be hurt would be small developers, because their potential audience will be limited until they take advantage of foreign hosting and segmenting their user's data. In the end, they'll probably be fine to, even if their growth is stunted while they comply with laws (and ultimately, the wishes of their customers).

FYI, "reminiscent" does not mean "exactly identical in all respects."

"Rebuttals" like yours are obnoxious, because you can always find some difference in a comparison. If there's some merit to the comparison, you shouldn't try to knock it down as you did. You've accurately noted that the current social justice movement lacks the violence of the Cultural Revolution, but that does not mean it doesn't have other similarities. IIRC, it was far more common for the Red Guards to harass their opponents than it was for them to beat and kill them.

That's because it is. Any magazine that purports to be informing the public about science should never have published the original article. It is in fact an opinion piece, and an ill-informed one at that.

I agree that a magazine is unlikely to publish an article that attacks its own editorial policies, but that doesn't make the magazine right.
