Most of the stuff they pump out is just nauseating. I don't blame them though, they will make a show about whatever current event or cultural item possible. People are mostly at home surfing on their phone with some background low grade show on netflix, puffing a nic stic or sipping a craft beer. It doesn't take much for people to keep paying the 20 bucks a month or whatever it is now. "Cheaper than a meal for 2 at mcdonalds"
They're talking about the hex representation. It doesn't make sense to think they were referring to the nibble as the version, given that all 16 values of that nibble are already in use.
No, they demand your VIN number before they'll sell you parts, and god help you if they've decided your chassis is no longer fit for the road.

They will also refuse to service the car or do bodywork on it (and they are the only place you can get bodywork for a Tesla done, I believe, as Tesla refuses to make bodyparts available), stop providing over the air updates (a violation of federal law, I believe), disable supercharger network access (and in the US, that means no fast charging whatsoever, as Tesla only sells a CCS 1 adapter in South Korea, and US cars lack the software to talk to a CCS charger), and turn off features that the owner had "purchased."

Richrepairs has found that they are quite arbitrary about when they declare a vehicle "totaled", and there's no recourse (except via civil court, I guess?)

To head the inevitable responses off at the pass, such as "well it's got that incredibly dangerous high voltage stuff, they have a duty to make sure it doesn't start a fire or kill someone":

* no other automaker requires VIN numbers for authorization purposes. You can walk into any car dealership and ask for a part number, and get it.

* no other automaker makes it their business to declare their vehicles road-worthy or not. No car manufacturer bothers to maintain such records except maybe for recall notification purposes, or tracking historical vehicles (such as non-road-legal, factory-built race cars for which there will eventually be heritage)

* no other automaker makes parts sales contingent on whether the vehicle is road-worthy or not. Or even if such a vehicle exists. GM, Ford, Dodge, and numerous other automakers will in fact sell you "crate" engines for whatever purpose you want. Again, no questions asked.

...all that, for vehicles that use a carcinogenic, poisonous, highly flammable fuel called "gasoline" which readily generates highly flammable, heavier-than-air vapors.

Or, for that matter, for their electric vehicles. A number of which use twice the voltage Teslas do.
They know the vaccine that's causing it - this isn't new, it's just very rare in a country that predominantly administers the inactivated vaccine.

From linked post, the actor is identified as a "commercial spyware" company.

So... I'd like to assume that Apple has cancelled their enterprise cert and will refuse to sell them another after this abuse, right? Surely there are terms of service that forbid using an enterprise cert maliciously, to fraudulently pretend to be another app and trick users that are not part of your "enterprise"?

Right? (cue Anakin and Padme meme).

But seriously... will they?

I believe you, but... so how does a "commercial spyware" company get one, and has it been cancelled by Apple after they see what they are up to?

Or do their not-so-easy requirements... allow "commercial spyware" companies to fraudulently impersonate other apps with the cert?
I figured it rose to the level of conventional wisdom. I don’t have a source to cite, because I’ve only dealt with it in random codebases.

As an anecdote: I had a codebase where a nontrivial constructor contained a “registry” of created objects, for introspection. The design contract for that part of the API included the assumption that all constructions would be explicit, but it wasn’t actually enforced. Later, someone did some subclassing and added some APIs that inadvertently performed a converting construction, resulting in broken invariants around offsets and members in the registry.

Was it a good design? No, it was terrible. But nothing stopped someone from writing it, and the codebase otherwise “did everything right” (C++11, warning flags out the wazoo, fuzzing, unit tests, etc.)

It was a real pain in the ass to debug, and it fundamentally couldn’t have happened in a Rust codebase. And that’s just one tiny corner.

Shorts is a weird anti-feature. I want to see the length of the video, be it 10 seconds or 45 seconds, not the word "shorts" where you'd expect a timestamp.

And also, why did we need a shitty interface for short videos? The regular interface was fine.
Full title:

Deadbolt Locks Offer False Sense of Security…
… when they are not installed properly.

Mythbusters inadvertently demonstrated the problems of the "short" screws that come with most strike plates in one of their episodes. They were testing "bashing through doors," and built a bunch of door frames, put doors in them, added locks, and proceeded to learn to slam through them - with rather great success, splitting the door trim.

Except for one, in which one of them rather nicely injured themselves (either Adam or Tory, can't recall which at the moment). The difference? 3" long screws into the studs, instead of the 3/4" or 1" screws that the others used.

I went through and replaced the screws securing all my strike plates after that episode.

Though, for most homes, all a lock will do is keep out the people who don't want to be there in the first place. They can be good if you don't want someone snooping around without you noticing, but unless you go out of your way to get "not abysmally shitty locks," anyone with a tiny bit of skill and a bump key or bump gun can pop your doors anyway without you noticing.

It should go without saying that the various internet connected and smartphone enabled locks are a security comedy if you care about security as well.
It's actually really simple. The parties short seller sold to can lend their shares out again.

Say I own the only share in Acme Corp. A borrows it and sells it to B. B then lent it to C who then sold it to D. Now you have both A and C with short position, despite only one outstanding share.

> they want a React developer, or a C#/.net developer who can pump out web APIs in it or something.

All web APIs follow the same basic pattern. The OP said:

>> try identify the 'timeless' things. Software design over languages, algorithms over libraries

If you understand the fundamentals of software engineering, picking up a new framework or library isn't a big deal. It's the same old tropes with some different syntax and domain language. Especially in the world of web development where you're pumping out APIs.

Ah, there should be a slider on the pricing page that lets you slide between plans. In hindsight, I can see how that might not be clear. Let me know if you still don't see it.

We do have some writers for whom English is a second language. We also have a handful of collaborators who have experience working with those folks. So far, those writers tend to be up front that English is their second language and so the contributors who jump into their work tend to self-select based on if they feel qualified to help. For now, this sort of emergent pairing of writers and contributors tends to give us more flexibility in what we can handle (as you noted, there's a lot of nuance within just this one use case).

And the tutor / tutorial model is certainly interesting (we've thought about it in a different context: hiring a writing coach), our general sense was that it is different enough from our core draft-level editing service that it's out of scope for the foreseeable future. I do agree there are certain things you can do live that are much harder (or impossible) to do asynchronously in doc comments.
I think Zig has a lot more footguns due to it's explicit nature. When you don't hide away the details from the human, you are increasing the risk of writing bad code and it becomes increasingly harder to make the compiler detect each potentially bad decision.

Rust did it but they had to rethink the whole problem from the ground up. Rust is safe but that safety had quite the learning cost as compared to, say, Zig or Go. The good thing about this is that you can't use many of the bad practices from other languages that have become habits.

But Zig is still in beta/alpha stage so let's see how they increase the overall safety in the coming months/years. My experience with Zig has left me quite satisfied, especially the comptime features but the explicitness sometimes gets in the way of readability.
Rust does no eliminate memory errors.

200+ memory safety errors were found in rust crates: https://www.infoq.com/news/2021/11/rudra-rust-safety/

I love rust, I think there's a good chance zig in its current state isn't the answer, but saying rust is totally memory safe is wrong. You drop into unsafe and people make the same errors C/C++ devs make.

Ironically if you had better bike infrastructure you wouldn't need all the parking.

The MBTA bus redesign ought to help too.

But there is no reason why downtown dense city areas should be so car-dependent. It's not like people will stop going to shops along Mass Ave if they can't drive there!

What's worse is that even in surrounding suburbs, which have wide roads, the bike infrastructure is basically nonexistent, and car traffic is correspondingly horrible.

Not to mention the economic benefits to small businesses of having downtown bike infrastructure. Imagine how places like Malden would benefit (especially since there is already a bike path there).

I think I understand the attack at a high level but I’m still not sure on some details.

Could someone explain how the math works to provide the oracle? In particular, the exact values the malicious server inserts as the encrypted sid and q^(-1), and why, if the guess for q is lower than the real q the plaintext sid the client sends back is 0, and why it’s not zero if the guess is higher?

Am I right in thinking the attacker simply randomly flips a bit in q^(-1)? Why do they need to do this? Do they flip different bits on different guesses? And then how do they encode their guess for q in the encrypted sid? And why, exactly does this provide an oracle? How does the subsequent lattice search need only half as many guesses as binary search? Finally, does this attack require the victim to actually type their password in 512 times?

Nice to know there's good places to work in the gaming industry. I think I'm scared due to the number of bad stories that popup now-n-then and the over-worked scenarios to meet deadlines.

I will sign onto this approach as well. Never expanded beyond a `core` app, which may have duplicated modules as the project grows (models_foo, models_bar, views_foo, views_bar, etc). I have never felt that any one component of the project was isolated enough from the rest of everything that it made sense to firewall off pieces into apps.
We've been holding off fundraising, because we were lucky to receive government grants because of our connections with academia, which lets us gather data through clinical trials, funded by millions of dollars in grant money.

The answer is obvious, but we can't pursue the "obvious" answer because we haven't received equity investment. University accelerators, and even NIH SBIRs apparently don't count?

Normally migrations of this type are done in two phases:
