Agreed, hard to see how that could happen with Nebula, since there is no vendor that has your CA key.

Defined Networks version, however, completely controls your CA key, and could generate their own nodes. The config files they generate are plain text and can be inspected for "mirror traffic" configs (I don't remember if Nebula has that feature, ZeroTier does). Defined Networks has a pretty slick setup, which I can go into a bit further if there is interest, I've done an eval and ended up deciding it wasn't quite ready for our use.

Being mesh networks, one could do some examination of traffic to ensure that they aren't shipping traffic external.

With ZeroTier, there are also some "self hosted" options. I haven't dug too deeply into them. I really like ZeroTier, and wanted to use it for our work overlay network, but I'm a bit skeptical about the reliability. It's been good for my test use case, but last year they had some sort of controller outage and when I asked their sales people about it and how we might be able to run a backup controller, he said that sort of outage wasn't possible. When I asked what was meant by this specific tweet that ZeroTier sent out that said it had happened, I got no reply. :-(

ZeroTier is super slick, but I can't move our entire infrastructure over to something that could have an outage that would take out our infrastructure until some third party resolved it.

First question: what could some of the consequences be if civilian installations of these transmitters did become targets?

Second question: would sales of these transmitters increase or decrease based on the outcomes you've presented in your first answer?

(there's plenty of potential for benefits from additional and redundant access to data; it's important to balance the risks and rewards appropriately)
You didn't take the effort to explain the relevance.

E.g., you could have said that you agree with the message but that you didn't want this piece to stand as a kind of Dr. Seuss image rehabilitation project that serves partly to whitewash his legacy in the interests of his current estate holders.

On the other hand, you could merely be trolling in an attempt to derail the topic of the book.

I like to keep track of functional equivalencies in cases like this. So if for whatever reason someone doesn't want to discuss the fantastic Butter Battle Book, we could just as easily discuss H. Bruce Franklin's non-fiction War Stars: The Superweapon and the American Imagination. He traces weapons dev from Robert Fulton hawking one of the first submarines all the way to nuclear weapons. (Plus it looks like it was updated to include 21st century weapons development.)

Quick take: this is second rate research (b-school professors have all the irrelevance of real academics with none of the substance).
The research from UPenn seems blissfully unaware of any previous research on attachment objects from psychology. They start with a click bait title and then try to bolt on some poorly construed studies. You would never throw away an attachment object after 2 years. A smartphone is a meta object that acts as a portal to a great variety of potentialities. Trying to describe it in terms of a physical object ignores the last 50 years of media theory.
They can demand whatever they want, as long as they are still in Ukraine I'm all for their access to Youtube and other social media channels to be severely curtailed: one way only.
Interesting choices. My smaller, more humble, totally local homelab uses InfluxDB v2 + Telegraf for observability and alerting. Plain old multicast-DNS with Avahi for, somewhat clunky, convention-based service discovery. Ansible for deploying Docker containers to the cluster. Would be interesting to clean it up with some of the services mentioned here.

I can attest to Caddy being excellent on ARM64. So good that I ditched Jellyfin for media-streaming and went with a simple auth-enabled directory listing file server.

Go-based tools and servers are a blessing for old ARM devices.

You think it’s a war crime to publish the names of military members?
Dependency injection really took root in Java. The reason is actually because if a design flaw: lack of duck typing combined with the ability to specify concrete types in Method signatures.

Go doesn’t really have this problem so I’m not convinced it needs DI at all.

C++ doesn’t really have much DI mindshare because it has templates (and macros).

Not intending to drag on comments, but I would argue running a basic Wireguard VPN on a central VPS (old hub and spoke) near your city, is more secure and faster. The attack surface is minimal, you have better control over firewall etc.

Mesh VPNs shine in small businesses with many users, where ACLs, SSO etc become useful. In home labs, a basic Wireguard server works fine.

Go ahead and demand away. Have fun with that. Get in line behind all of the other people who have grievances against Google.

I'm sure (or at least I hope) governments have some super-secret way of getting Big G's attention. But I entertain a vision of someone in the Russian government futilely Googling "Google customer service phone number."

You don't seem to understand the concept of Sovereignty, what other countries do is not up to Putin, and if they don't do what he wants that does not give him a right to invade or dictate terms.
In the hypothetical situation you're outlining, this would be a completely justified attack.

However we are not in that hypothetical situation and this is why hypothetical situations suck in arguments.

This also depends on what cut the steak is. 138F is a better target for something with more fat, like ribeye, because 130F won't really break it down.
At very least, because the baton eventually needs to be passed on to younger generations.

Regarding language innovation, I will oversimplify and assert that due the resistance to modernization (for whatever reasons), we have spent the last decades making Algol 68, Lisp and ML appealing to mainstream, smuggling their capabilities into more acceptable packaging.
They are responsible for a lot of fake news to drive traffic. I remember a Twitter thread in which someone shared a lot of articles about aid programs that didn't exist anymore or new version of those aids that the official government entity didn't announce.
How to move from Dictatorship to Democracy [pdf]
I think the two biggest drivers in this case are that the aggressor is a superpower that is pretty much an arch nemesis at this point, and the internet/social media.

Honestly, without the stream of videos and takes flowing off social media, I don't think people would be so engaged.

To test this thought, I ask myself would it be the same if Russia invaded India, China, or say, Mongolia today under the same circumstances? I personally think so, but obviously can't prove it.

On what basis do you make that claim?

It appears that you’re saying that PX-1000cr isn’t an example NSA backdoor or that the article breaking the cipher in the PX1000cr is incorrect?

It seems like you’re either very aware of how NSA backdoors work and you’re misleading people for some reason or you don’t know what you’re talking about, you’re being hopeful and you are ignoring the evidence that NSA inserts backdoors which can be broken by others. Assuming the latter in good faith, I’m afraid to inform you that you’re simply incorrect.

Do you dispute that the secret key for the Q Parameter in Dual EC may be recovered by anyone with a CRQC? This is assuming that they exist, and if they don’t or won’t exist, why does NSA concern themselves with pq crypto? I agree that someone stealing the key is a different effort but either could have answered your question of what the key is - so the technique is largely irrelevant, but I take your more narrow point and will engage it.

If NSA isn’t misleading us to deploy broken crypto with their pq standardia push, then they probably don’t consider the Q parameter in Dual EC to be a NOBUS backdoor. After all, by your argumentation NOBUS is forever, isn’t it?

There are other backdoored systems pushed by NSA and some are still in use. I assure you, they can be broken in a weekend by someone with the relevant computer science and mathematical background. The trick for finding it is to realize your core assumption is wrong.

One system NSA built was purpose built to trick a community of interest, and it worked. The core break is in the RNG - the RNG only generates keys from a small subset of all possible keys. The users of this system have no clue.

Do you really suggest that this kind of NSA backdoor doesn’t exist and that evidence of it means that it isn’t NSA who did it? It again seems ahistorical of you.

Exactly. Slack does not offer "lighthouses as a service". Here is a quote by the authors from the Nebula GH repository README...

"Nebula lighthouses allow nodes to find each other, anywhere in the world. A lighthouse is the only node in a Nebula network whose IP should not change. Running a lighthouse requires very few compute resources, and you can easily use the least expensive option from a cloud hosting provider. If you're not sure which provider to use, a number of us have used $5/mo DigitalOcean droplets as lighthouses."

Wealthier societies and individuals always get the first shot at new technologies, so this is a general argument against any improvement until we've established global communism. Cancer treatments and Covid vaccines have not made the world worse despite being unevenly distributed.

It's a particularly bad argument here because mitigating the harmful effects of aging would result in massive reductions in medical expenses. Governments and insurance companies would be highly incentivized to get them to as many people as possible.

Because I can access the entire wealth of human knowledge just fine by sitting down with my laptop, avoiding some of the issues with having a smartphone on me at all times.

Thomas Bass' book The Eudamonic Pie describes a project by some people from UC Santa Cruz who did computer-assisted timing analysis of roulette wheels, and did pretty well at applying it (for a while).

This was in the late 1970s or early 1980s, and hardware has only gotten smaller and more concealable. I'm not surprised at casinos going to digital "wheels", though it sure seems like cheating when there's no possibility of cheating :-)
biased towards the house, even moreso than straight probabilities would tell you.

That's called the house edge, or the vig. Without that, casinos wouldn't make money.

I usually explain it to people by saying that the casino doesn't make money from the losers. It uses the money from the losers to pay the winners, but charges the winners a fee.
The idea that one should accept being under a madman, a dictator and cede all your current political rights with no fighting seems like a shitty way to go, notwithstanding your opi iin that neoliberalism is just as bad as crony dictatorship.

The fact that Putin is aggravated and that Russian troops are stacking casualties, seems to counter your claim that the war isn't worth fighting.

They don't ban you, but many casinos, particularly the larger ones, will "suggest" that you might want to take a break if you are losing a lot of money very fast.

A player that goes bankrupt is less likely to return.
That is not without costs, in terms of both time and money. And I'm sure Russia doesn't particularly want to increase its dependency on China either.
I love Kenji’s cooking videos! You definitely learn a lot. I love how he brings his experiences and knowledge learned into his recipes. I remember watching a Japanese Chicken Katsu video of his, and the fact that he compares how salting affects the juicyness of the final product gives a simple homecook the knowledge they need to know that can possibly be applied to some other recipe later on.
People don't want to get old, sick and die, but they also recognize that removing death across our entire species would have scary implications.
Life is Simple https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56643989-life-is-simple
Kenji's channel and writing are great windows into how cooking does not need to follow rigid rules and precise measurements to make great food. He substitutes ingredients and uses what he has on hand all the time. Unless it's something like bread or pizza dough, where he needs the correct ratio between flour and water, he never measures or weighs anything. He frequently leaves something baking in the oven or simmering on the stovetop, promising to come back in X minutes, but it's usually Y minutes later because he's been off doing something with his wife/kid/dogs. It seems like he says things like "oops" and "but that's ok" a lot. Cooking shouldn't be intimidating. He shows how approachable and forgiving it can be.

Slack does not offer lighthouses or any part of Nebula.

They spun off a company, Defined Networks, which is enhancing Nebula, and they offer a hosted CA with key rotation and push configuration updates to your fleet, currently in a kind of early beta. You still run your own lighthouses, but they are entirely in control of your CA, so they can sign certs for nodes at their will.

That could allow third parties into your networks, but I'm not sure if that would imply any ability to redirect or decrypt traffic.

The "last 3 rounds" part is obviously metaphorical. It says he used teams of observers for a month to record up to 20,000 spins, not that he literally looked at 3 spins to determine the fourth.

It all sounds unlikely in today's data-driven world, but I suppose that in European casinos a half century ago they had roulette wheels that had been in service for 80 years without any real maintenance and would show massive bias without anybody noticing.

I don't see what the big deal is with assembling furniture from IKEA. Sure it might be a time sink initially, but only it needs to be done once. I bought an IKEA Jerker desk about 16 years ago that's still holding up wonderfully even after multiple moves. Also since I assembled it, I know exactly how quickly disassemble/reassemble it if I need to move it again.
Eh, I think it's good enough. People who aren't researchers or college students don't even have the option of a tedious authentication system with a library.

I think it's more informative than total volume of articles, but that going further than that is the kind of overkill where you need twenty different numbers to capture all the different slightly different ways you can count the number of potential users. Should you do it versus number of universities? Number of students? Number of faculty? Number of graduates in the general population (who can't get papers otherwise but are qualified to read them)?

Per capita has criticisms about different structural features of countries, but it's pretty hard to improve on without being super careful about how you interpret things. Same with per capita, of course, but at least people kind of understand it. I am not convinced that people really do, few people seem to even know what a median is or why it can be more useful than a mean.
Long range, aircraft launched, deployed hypersonic nuclear delivery systems will render this even more moot, relative to the current status quo, in the next 20 years.

This was a nice short read! I’d definite recommend it.
“Complete Turbo Pascal” by Jeff Duntemann and “The Peter Norton Programmer's Guide to the IBM PC” blazed my trail into professional computing. Both are near-ideal models of nonfiction writing and teach a practical skill through the joy of discovery. No CS textbook I've read since can compare, though Allen Downey's “Think” series probably comes closest.
This sounds like people only ever went to casinos with the expectation of winning. You should not ever do this, even before the digital era.

Casinos are places where you can trade money for the hope of maybe winning a larger prize. For a lot of people, that is fun, and worth the expense. Seen from that perspective, there is still a "point".
