It's a question of cookies vs HTTP headers. Cookies are hard to use with CORS (when using backend-as-a-service stuff like Firebase, in particular) and/or mobile apps.

There's really no difference between a random session id and a random token. But people typically think "session id == cookie" and "token == header".

More secure session cookies are also HTTP-only, which means JavaScript code can't access them. Which can be a security feature in a lot of cases, but makes SPAs harder.

Don't you remember the US pressuring to stop NS2 earlier in the year? How can Germany NOT be a "hesitant" ally in energy matters if its enconomy depends mostly on cheap energy, being the biggest EU exporter?
Mm, so definitely temporary storage and I’m sure some steps were taken to encrypt that temp storage? What is the impact of scope for those secrets ya know? Seems like a honeypot for good stuff lurking in their cloud account.. not going to knock the idea though, pretty clever
> Maybe there's no simple answer for energy issues and countries don't simply build or close down power plants over single issue?

Well, two things. One, pretty sure the push to shut down Germany’s nuclear plants was a response to a single issue, Fukushima.

Two, one simple answer to this particular situation is to assess your energy independence before sanctioning the country you rely on for natural gas. Germany is getting raked over the coals with the same talking points precisely because they walked into a situation they weren’t well-equipped to handle.

I have an inner dialogue, or at least I think I do. When I picked up meditation, I think I learned how to have it stop. Or at least so I don't notice it is occurring.

I love Lua, it's one of my favorite languages to write code in. It's small and simple, but you can do so much with the few things it offers. Really well designed imho.

I also like MoonScript[1] a lot, a language that compiles to Lua. I use it even more than Lua because I prefer its brevity and it solves one design problem that I (and many others) see in Lua: in Lua variables are global by default, but local by default in MoonScript.

In Mexico power cuts are so frequent that most (probably all) cell towers have batteries that last for an hour or two.

It's rare that power cuts last so long, usually it's like 10-15 mins, but I've experienced 3-4 hours cuts a couple of times over the years. When I lived in Cancún these were more frequent though, because AC consuming so much power during summer.

> Russia didn’t gain military power to invade Ukraine from UN, it is in UN because it already possessed the military power.

Russia has no real military power, as the last 7 months have shown us. It was not even a founding member of the UN Security Council – the Soviet Union, a real world superpower, was.

> Now, you can say that UN failed to prevent the invasion and do its job, but expelling Russia means you’re left with no forum for dialogs and negotiations.

That's exactly my point: the UN failed to prevent the invasion, because the invading country had a veto right in all of its decisions.

Any dialogs or negotiations with Russia are an illusion of naive Western powers who don't understand how Russia really works: it doesn't care about or respect any international agreements it signs.

In my experience, a working strategy for handling signout or revocation for statically verifyable tokens like JWT is straightforward:

- Clear client side state where you can.
- Write signed out/expired tokens to something with a cheap heavy read/eventual consistency model
- Fail to signed in if unavailable
- Acknowledge that you are gaining latency/availability/

Why do we glorify raising money instead of congratulating companies for successful, profitable business models?

There is no way that I would depend on a closed source solution from a company with no proven business model.

Let me take that back. When I was a dev lead where our company made up 60% of our vendors revenue, we refused to sign a contract with them until they agreed to put their code in escrow and under certain conditions we had a right to their code.

Based on your pricing page, those helm charts cost "call us" money to use. Am I reading that right?
Sure. By diversity of ideas I mean different models of reality.

It could be at different levels (more compartmentalized or more general). For example classic physics and quantic physics will give you 2 diverse ways to observe reality (one happens to include the other but that can be considered an accident).

When we're talking about more general diverse ideas, I mean the kind of diversity that leads to the understanding of different world views (or cosmovisions, as in having many different cosmic worldview of a society or civilization).
Russia was searching any possible excuse to not deliver gas well before this incident, and had stopped delivering already (from a failed turbine and missing spares from Siemens to complicated payment methods). There were public threads to not deliver gas during the winter also: cfr. "it will be a long winter" video.

Negating those informations, and the fact that rationality is no the first thing that comes to my mind, when I think of Putin's actions, cannot be seriously called "exercise critical thinking".

Of course it should be carefully analysed, but asserting "it was USA" is a long shot.

Dictators benefit from economic prosperity just as Democratic leaders do: the propensity benefits those who keep them in power. In a dictatorship, economic prosperity rarely benefits the average citizen, but that's because the average citizen isn't important to secure the dictators power.

You can see Putin paying a price for the continued economic hardships. He is absolutely risking an end to his reign, but apparently the possibility of glory is more important to him.
My first introduction to Lua was with an online game called Tibia when I was a teenager. One of my childhood friends was really good at scripting in Lua, but was otherwise quite computer apathetic. He didn't really care for them, it was a tool to achieve what he wanted in the game. He went on to become a tradie.

I sometimes reflect on that. I think it illustrates that there could be value in exposing DSLs for lots of aspects of everyday life, and that we could potentially take coding off it's pedestal so that it doesn't have a stigma of being very hard.

Very hard problems are hard to solve in code, and we build complex pieces of software which are difficult, but. The core building blocks of code are really quite easy, and you can use those to achieve all kinds of things. Sometimes a power-user could utilize a DSL with ease and enable otherwise impossible use-cases if they had only a UI to use.
OK, do you agree (or disagree) that kids poorly fed and poorly supported today, are likely to be a bigger cost/lower economic benefit to society in the future? All other things being equal.

Lobbying by pilots might redirect some money to upgrade someone's favorite small airport but their influence pales in comparison to long standing national security doctrine. Pilots and airports are part of our emergency infrastructure, the kind you don't think you need until the worst happens like a natural disaster.

But times when Germany/predecessors and Russia hand been allied haven't exactly been peaceful either. History is the worst foreign policy advisor of them all.
This example is confusing because its unclear who the trusted parties are and who you are trying to protect the data from. Quite frankly this feels like you are mostly pointing out that FHE wont work if you use it incorrectly . Normal encryption won't work either if you give the bad guy your key.

> But every FHE vendor I've seen blur that difference by not specifying what kind of attacks they protect against when they talk about "protecting privacy".

Agree with you here. FHE is an impractical technology at this stage. I'm pretty sure all commercial FHE vendors are borderline scammers, and have a loose relationship with the truth.
This is only true if your goal is to have a score higher than your opponent. It's not true if your goal is to have the highest possible score.

If ties are with 0, you always choose 1 in either situation. If ties are worth -1, choosing 1 always achieves a greater than or equal to score but the number will be much lower than if you some percentage of the time choose another number.

My daughter just had her first child, a baby boy that was born in the first week of July. The rate of progress in AI/ML technology is nearly unbelievable and my mind boggles at how it's going to influence his childhood (both good and bad).

My daughter was born in 1998. The Internet made a bit of a phase change during her early childhood and there were many instances where there was no precedent to guide a decision on what to do, so we just had to wing it as parents based on our own intuition and values. I certainly got some things wrong but we made it in one piece. I just worry a bit about what kind of new challenges my daughter will face in raising her son in this new environment, where powerful organizations wield unbelievable resources to create deep, life long co-dependencies on their revenue streams and intellectual empires.

With a symmetric cipher, I could figure out the blood type of every employee pretty easily. With an asymmetric cipher, I could figure out everyone who has my blood type, and the blood types of anyone who reveals that information.

If the point is to filter data when you aren’t allowed to know what the data is, then the act of being in the filter or not reveals some of that information. It’s just a game of twenty questions.

My cynical take is that this kind of thing is just going to be gone because at this point it's just a (diminishingly) reasonable excuse to cut services aka costs.

I have a small storage unit I rent and the bathrooms have been closed for 2 and a half years "due to COVID" and at this point I'll be genuinely surprised if they ever reopen. Same reasoning as the "room service."
There are more than 50 million cable TV subscribers alone, though. And just over 10% of television households rely on broadcast TV exclusively. My point wasn't that streaming TV subscribers don't exist, it was just that the OP almost certainly meant recording traditional cable or broadcast TV when they said "tv recording". That's why I was confused by your reference to widevine.

10000% effective for me in order to sleep. I live in a loud neighborhood with very rude neighbors who play loud bass. Brown noise (albeit cranked very loudly via a Lectrofan brand machine) keeps low frequency nuisance at bay. It can't block out the physical aspects of loud upstairs neighbors stomping or loud cars rumbling past, but it has really saved my sanity and blocked 90% of the noise.

White noise on the other hand doesn't really do it as much for me, but is helpful for blocking out people talking, higher frequency sounds, etc.

Bonus feature for me would be if there was an open source engineering firmware available that provided full control and visibility into the baseband chips and exposed more cell site data. I had phones with the engineering firmware when I was in wireless ages ago and it was super useful.

It is believed that ancient computersmiths were a superstitious caste. They believed in an entity known as "World", and it was custom to greet this deity as both a recognition of its power and an invocation to receive it's divine favor. Computersmiths were also known to compose poetry documenting their capabilities. It was typical for computersmiths to update this prose, commonly referred to as a 'resume', upon successfully greeting World.

The Samsung gear I worked on would take about 10 min to come back up, give or take. I know because I dropped a handful of sites when I did power testing - visual inspection was not always enough to verify if the power was wired correctly. Most of them came back up in 10 min.. well, except once there was one site that didn't come back because the Microwave didn't like the power hit, lol - that required another tower crew to revisit and hang a new RRU.

I just can't imagine power design is that different, I'm used to these cabinets even in urban areas having 4 strings of batteries in them, are they only building sites with a single string in europe?
