Part of taking on SOC 2 is also choosing whether you want your attitude to be "Let's do the minimum to get past the audit" and "Let's take this framework, and figure out where we can learn from it."

The post mentions background checks. On the one hand, I understand there's a real issue with these. On the other, if my PAAS isn't ensuring repeat offender fraudsters don't have access to sensitive data, that's possibly an area of concern. Hopefully the things they took from the other mentioned company do increase due diligence in vetting employees who have access to sensitive/regulated information.

Use it as a framework to actually think about BCP, DRP, etc, etc, and it won't be a total waste of time.

Edit:
Also adding I bring up background checks as an example of learning from vetted practices, rather than trying to attack the decisions of fly. I respect this article, especially where it's easy for people on the internet to criticize decisions, when the reality is security is a series of tradeoffs, and to function as a business means having imperfect processes.

I admit I find the ferverent vociferations against ROBLOX as an entity somewhat disheartening; the game was cynosure to my childhood, providing precious experience to me in learning how to navigate social situations and cope with the rammifications thereof.

Pedophiles did, and do, exist, but this is a fact of life in any manner of social media or large community; discussing frankly how malevolent some may be is imperative, even if it does not preempt all danger posed. The alternative, stifling all manners of creative expression available to those who may otherwise be socially shunted, is untenable to me, as it does not line up with what my experience growing up using this technology taught me.

Nothing in life is without risk--exposure to this risk over a platform that's online, somewhat discoverable, and insulated is vastly preferable to keeping your kids blissful and unknowing of what would threaten them. Please do not attempt to parent in such a way that motivates your children to hide things from you and cut you out of the loop entirely.
...warning business leaders that Beijing is determined to steal their technology for competitive gain.

Is that news to anyone?

Also if they want the warning to be heeded, they should have provided an example or two of recent activity substantiating the claim. The article doesn't mention a single shred of evidence. Anyone know if their speech did?
If you can afford $5000 a month for internet maybe you're more likely on a Silent 60 (17 kWp solar) than a Catalina 30.
It’s funny because I usually run into the exact opposite. All documentation seems to be like Unix man pages. It only makes sense if you’re already an expert at it. If you’re not, then it makes no sense and if it does have the answer, you’ll never be able to understand it.
Technical chops are important indeed, I'd say in a 40-60 proportion with attitude, respectively.

From my previous work (when I was a Manager), I know a 98% attitude dude who is deep roots into the post and cannot be fired. No one wants to fire him, he's too loyal to the company; but he's also very hard to work with technically-wise. He just doesn't have it, he sometimes screws up a simple upload CSV file procedure, and his mistakes have costed several thousand dollars over many months to the company he works for.

The political cost of firing someone like him is just too high for any Senior Manager there. He is regarded as a force-to-be-reckoned-with in terms of cultural fit, but on the financial sheets, he's just deep into the hole.

You can always skill up some technical knowledge you might have, but attitude is hard to build. However, no extreme is good, as you put it by being over-educated.

Tough situation.

For one, you seem to be an avid user of the platform which is likely good for the company.

On the other, the situation you described that caused the loss of privilege is very likely the type of situation the company is trying to avoid: "My wife had three small children distracting her and she was wearing a splint on her broken wrist.". A distracted driver that is temporarily but slightly physically impaired with kids in the car testing a self-driving functionality is unsafe.

Let’s be honest here, PE firms exist to make partners rich, not to reallocate misused capital and force people to get a productive job. Their mechanisms are described by the OP and may sometimes result in those things but those are not the goal or the motivation.

Bankruptcies are a necessary evil but they are always awful, traumatic experiences for employees, and often PE will force reorgs, acquisitions and layoffs not because they are best for the economy or employees but because they are best for the new owners.

But doesn't carrier agnostic in this context mean that it is very hard to coordinate with people to have compatible hardware?

A nice compatible routing protocol does not help when people have a mix of LoRa, commodity 2.4GHz and 5GHz wifi as the physical layer.
And then add in more esoteric stuff like 3.6GHz CBRS, 433MHz NPR-70, 900MHz Ubiquiti radios or new 802.11ah sub-1GHz radios.

Have you seen the breakthroughs that Magic Leap 2 has achieved? Still not at the price point for consumers but it pretty much solves all the annoyances of the first device or HoloLens for that matter. No longer looking through a tiny FOV, holograms no longer transparent, usable outdoors, first device able to display black. It is quite an achievement.

They can't do satellite to satellite yet. Just terminal -> sat -> ground station. Starlink is in low earth orbit, so the visibility any one satellite has is (relatively speaking) pretty limited.
Right, but OP is not talking about theft, OP is talking about someone (with possible short interest) creating havoc by causing people's staking nodes to behave in a bad way caused them to be slashed. You can't get the money they lost (it's gone for good), but you might be able to profit of a short position, or with a more sophisticated scheme, a resulting fork.

We all like different things. The thing that impresses me is getting the result out of CSS only. Now it is out there and potentially other people can now take the idea and run with it to potentially make even more interesting ideas. These are just proof of concepts to get the imagination running on the potential of being possible.
If you do have a kid, you'll learn that every single experience you've had with other kids amounts to nothing. Having a lifelong commitment to another human and trying your hardest to make them the best person they can be, often against their own will, is something that you can't replicate with all the nieces and family friends in the world.

Pedophiles are extremely extremely clever and know exactly how to manipulate their targets. Just like spam, they don't go for every kid but they target the ones they know they can manipulate. If your child happens to be the target of a pedophile it's extremely, extremely difficult. We had some close calls on Roblox because my kid was an early reader/writer/typer so I was watching everything he was doing and cut away as soon as weird stuff started happening and then I deleted the app entirely. Now he's on Minecraft but I have a dedicated Minecraft server and only his friends play on it.

There are certain dangers that you can safely expose your children to with limited negative or even good consequences. Learning how to carefully climb structures at a young age is a great skill and if they fall down, they learn to be more careful. Learning your own limits at a young age is great. If they break their arm doing a skateboarding trick, that sucks, but they will learn more about conquering fear from bouncing back.

Getting conned into sending nude photos or being roped into the virtual hands of a pedophile are quite often things that kids have an extremely hard time recovering from. It's basically like sending your kid to play on the highway and expecting them to "learn" from the experience. "Well, they can learn how to be careful around moving cars!" is a ridiculous statement when the entire environment is dangerous and the outcomes are extremely binary.

It's easier to teach them how to avoid predators when they're much older, but Roblox is targeted for much younger kids.
why do we need to remove toxicity. I feel like most communities have tried with more and more attempts to remove toxicity and the side effect is a sterile environment.

I don't want people to clear out the toxicity....thanks I can handle it and I enjoy seeing what people get heated about.

instead, please give me the filtering capabilities so that I can block and hide people I want. I much prefer if I can curate the content on my own and override the censors.

To my understanding the only way you'd see a performance benefit is if Dolphin were running on a machine with a PowerPC or some other POWER-based CPU, since most or all instructions would no longer need to be emulated, making it closer to virtualization.

It'd be interesting to see old G3, G4, and G5-based Macs repurposed as deluxe GameCube and Wii emulators. Potentially Wii U too, but I'd imagine that would be restricted to tail-end models of multi-CPU G5 towers with the best GPUs those machines can handle.

I don’t know that there’s much evidence that background checks work for this, though.
These are server apps. This guy is talking about end user apps more.

Example: I prefer to run Google Earth desktop instead of Earth in a browser. It's faster, has more features and doesn't suck up as much memory.

I use Notepad++ instead of google docs for most note taking.

I use Kusto Explorer desktop instead of Azure Data Explorer.

Outlook desktop instead of OWA.

There are exceptions. The facebook messenger app I prefer in a browser, because, do I trust Facebook software to not scrape my screen and send it back to FB servers? I would much prefer it to live in my taskbar as a discrete app otherwise.

I hold all power sources to the same standard. As long nuclear don't put their pollution into the air, storing it is almost infinitive better. Any energy source that just release pollution into the environment as a cost-saving strategy should be banned, which by economical standard makes all fossil fuel energy sources (and possible some bio fuel ones) nonviable.

The same is for handling worst case scenarios, and here we got a prime example for which to base a minimum standard. Hydropower dams has very bad worst case scenarios if they burst. For the person who dies, neither radiation poisoning or drowning is pretty pleasant, so which ever regulation and liability we want to apply to both is fine by me.

One option to is to ban any energy source the release pollution, and any energy source that has a risk to human lives. The candle industry would be happy, through I suspect there would be an increase in house fires.
When oil producing countries are racing to get nuclear energy, it remains no surprise that it is something that will only help in the transition, because burning the fule is not a enough!

The majority of their satellites just bounce the signals back down to a nearby ground station. Their version 1.5 sats, which they started launching about a year ago, include laser links to allow sat->sat communication. Their plan is for the remaining 3/4th of their fleet to have laser links.

One interesting side-effect of the laser links is that they can open up connections between stock exchanges and trading houses that are faster than direct fiberoptic lines. Milliseconds count in high frequency trading.

Option 1 applies to mobile frontends, too. In Swift you can always call JavaScriptCore to run a script. Android can use system-wide V8 or even bundle a smaller interpreter for JS.

(In fact, JS is the only "universal" scripting language in mobile due to Apple's fun restrictions that JavaScriptCore is the only JIT engine allowed on iOS. It really is the strongest option today for language to write things in if they absolutely need to be shared across all possible operating environments.)
> > History is clear that this is equivalent to calling for extrajudicial killing of people

> I dont follow. What's the equivalence.

I'm not saying that anm89 was right to reject the article based on the source, but what they were saying here was, I thought, pretty clear. People who have property will often defend that property against extrajudicial taking (that is, theft). To take their property then means physical force against them. If you're going to succeed in taking it, that often will require killing them.

And, historically, the mob has gone from "take their property" to "kill them" somewhat regularly.
Yea, I found the price point really disappointing. This only makes sense for large commercial users - leaves cruisers and small commercial customers high and dry.
They can be, if you set them up correctly.

Get an iPad, and delete all the app icons, except the couple you use every day, like iMail and Safari. (You can always access them from the Applications folder.)

Turn off all the notifications. Set the desktop background to some non-distracting solid color. Keep your data in folders, don't clutter up the desktop.

Use Pages to write things. Or, maybe just use write.as on the web, and let them handle the fiddly details like backup and web page hosting of your work.

If you have a Linux background and just want something simple (but very capable when you need it), run i3 or Sway on Alpine.
If you're in B2B, plenty of larger companies will disqualify for not having SOC2/ISO27001.

Also, it can help get you out of repeat security assessment questionnaires, so it can actually give you time back, depending on how many of those you have to field.

Yeah the human element obviously is harder than a static foe, which is why we teach a mixture of guides (soft rules) and hard rules. Something like:

Hard rule: never send photos of yourself to someone online, without letting one of us do it for you.

Guide: Don't trust any adults or other kids who ask you about your underwear

Rule: Don't tell anyone where you live or give them your address or where you go to school

Guide: If you feel uncomfortable talking to someone, stop talking to them and get one of your parents.
> We've been pretty successful in stopping major nation states from using bioweapons so far.

I am sure everyone has it. Every major nations. Although they might not use it.

> AI

I am sure it is already there. Many have it. Turkey, and at least China. Maybe Israel and the US.

And it will not come in clear paradigms, I think. Like FSD in Tesla. Use will happen for components first, then major things, then maybe one day, fully autonomous.

How do you even regulize it? What happens if they use Logistic Regression? That's just Stat, right? What if add one more layer? Then that becomes MLP, and in the AI domain. What about CNNs? Transformers? Where do you draw the line?

What if the missile truck uses something like FSD?

> arms race

This isn't going to be like other arms races. This will fundamentally change all weapons. And should not be used where it is not needed, though.

Also, gone are the days when countries flaunted big missiles. How would even other countries know, if you don't want them to?
Just like any language with FFI capabilities to call the same libraries.

I think at those prices you'd have a boat big enough to have the power budget. It's clearly aimed at commercial or scientific use with a side of super yacht.

I'm guessing a more affordable version more like the RV product will become available for cruising sailors in time. I think the mammoth price delta over RV is because it'll be usable offshore (starting Q4 this year) and presumably that requires some more complex satellite-to-satellite data exchange (which at a guess they want to limit usage of until it works well.
