Exactly. Hell, even VIM has an "ad" every time you start the editor up for donating to Uganda. The donate to uganda may be more altruistic and not-profit-seeking, but it takes up more real estate than this canonical ad, and is "Unwanted". Why is one acceptable and not the other?
And UI designers. And product managers.
IMDSv2 lead here! Overall the IMDS is a pretty massive security win ... it means that software and scripts can use short-lived ephemeral credentials that are tied to an instance role very easily. That rules out the kinds of credential leakage issues mentioned in this article, but also filesystem traversal issues and so on that have been common in software historically. That's the big why.

It's a HTTP interface so that the most software can benefit from that, whether it's a shell script using curl or something written in Java, Scala, Python, Node.js, Rust, whatever ... pretty much everything can make HTTP requests. Of course over time that HTTP interface became a target itself and when applications have SSRF issues, badness could ensue.

IMDSv2 limits the reachability in four ways to protect against SSRF. 1. The IMDS can be entirely turned off if you prefer. 2. Access requires a PUT request, our analysis showed that SSRFs that grant the ability to PUT are very rare. Most SSRF issues only grant GET because they are a URL or header escaping issue that don't give up control of the method. 3. Requests with X-Forwarded-For are denied, so if it's a misconfigured open proxy or WAF that adds this header, you get protection. 4. The request has to come from the local box because we set the IP TTL to "1" which means it isn't routable off-box. This protects against misconfigured NATs and routers.
That's my question as well, I just want to pay for it to get actual good quality. Had enough of freemium crap.
Women are not better behaved on average, they're simply not prosecuted equally for their poor behaviour.

To get a full understanding of this, compare self reported spousal abuse data against police reported data. The difference is shocking.

I absolutely love "Music for REAL Airports" by The Black Dog.

An obvious poke at the original, it features a darker, moody and slightly unsettling ambience, with some minimal percussive elements in a couple of tracks. It's meant to remind you of the real experience of being in an airport, which isn't exactly a pleasant experience :)

Yep, exactly. Just use the Tailscale IPs or domains in your reverse proxy config.
They mean React à la functional components, hooks, and JSX.

The point is qwik enables this style of development without the runtime punishment.
That they are a non-profit funded by donations, maybe? Just a wild guess. /s
I find it ironic that this is published in Nature. In may experience Nature journals are amongst the worst with respect to peer review.

In my field they seem to draw from a very limited set of reviewers (often senior academics who have not worked in the specific field in quite a while). We have been criticised with very outdated information. This is worse because editors are not experts, we had a reviewer contradict textbook established science and when we asked for an additional reviewer, they send it back to the same person.

Even worse, their goal is not publishing good science, they want to sell journals. While they will never publicly admit it, I know that they take the into account the reputation of an author in their decision to send it out to reviewers (for those who don't know, in the high impact journals like science or nature, the biggest hurdle is typically getting the editors accept the paper and send the paper out to review).
I thought the point of water tanks is that one needs a simpler / weaker pump to maintain the water pressure.

i.e. if you want to maintain water pressure X, with a pump you need something that can push X, but with a tower, you just need a pump that can keep the tower full over the course of a more length period and just has to pump at the average of what it takes to keep it full over the course of that longer period (i.e. the average pressure needed to maintain the tower is less than the pressure you need to provide).
3. Is highly under-rated, and I would throw "shock jocks" in there as well. There's a certain devops CEO with lots of street-cred, who loves to make these definitive, insulting, patronizing statements. "Anybody who has to schedule releases is doing it wrong and I feel pity for them". "DevOps is Bullshit. If you're not writing code to develop the project then you shouldn't be employed", etc.

It's impossible to have a real discussion with the "evangelist" crowd anymore, or if anybody from the evangelist crowd is within earshot. Not just forums, but they've pretty much ruined meetups and conferences.

My natural state is to become highly emotionally invested in the success of companies I work for. I struggled with this, especially when I was prevented from fixing issues that were really hurting the companies. Everything from going through proper channels to getting the "not your job".

Now I do consulting instead. I still get emotionally invested in the success of my clients but my job is specifically to help them run more effectively. Ended up that the solution for me has just been to find the job that allows me to help in the way most natural for me.
Yeah, no one uses plain sms messages across the pond any more.

I was just complaining about this very thing on twitter:

One time my car wouldn't start at an Mc Donalds, and I asked inside if I could leave my car there while I went and got jumper cables. I didn't want them to tow my car while I was gone.

The person behind the counter didn't know if they would tow my car or not but told me the best way to get around was the bus, and here is why public transit was a better way to get around, and so on.

My mistake was having a car at all.

This method will:

- Install from the Mozilla PPA.

- Automatically update Firefox.

- Let you install third party integrations (I needed keepassxc).

Side bonus: I'm also not getting the annoying "You need to update Firefox popups" that are super cryptic and don't explain that you apparently need to close Firefox then, I don't know, wait a few minutes, I guess, for stuff to update in the background.

SO does say if the question asker is new to the site on the answer page.

The problem is that SO is not a Q&A site in the sense of "I have this exact problem; I'm going to describe it badly and not really tell you what I want". It's much more for more generalised problems with good minimal reproducible examples and specified outcomes, so that questions can help others in future.

If someone is offended when asked for those things, they won't necessarily communicate what happened objectively; they may well just say "People on SO are elitist" and be believed with no evidence. Not to say that SO is perfect, but I see so much patient helping of new people that I can't help but fight its corner a little.

Casting from any T* to void* back to T* is always safe. That is one of the few safe things you can do with a void*, and kinda the whole point. :-)

I think casting from void* back to double* is the better option here. memcpy() is overkill here since that idiom is mainly for reinterpreting data with a different type without triggering undefined behavior: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/98650/what-is-the-strict.... We're not changing the type, so why confused people with an overly powerful idiom? That said, the memcpy() idiom is common and useful enough that C++ added a specific API for it: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/bit_cast.

Casting and the memcpy() idiom compile down to the same code https://godbolt.org/z/xY6W9ja69*

RCS isn’t anywhere nearly as widely adopted as SMS, depends entirely on the carrier setting it up properly, and didn’t get end to end encryption until relatively recently. Many years after this whole green vs. blue debacle started.

Once 99% of phones and carriers support RCS then maybe you could make this argument, but it won’t be for several years.
All hierarchical systems have this fundamental problem: it's not uncommon for people of relatively low competence to get into higher-ranked positions, and then their fear of being replaced by a more competent but lower-ranked person starts dominating their decisions and behavior. In the technical and academic worlds, these tend to be people who are skilled at politics but who have poor grasp of the technical or scientific skills that their position requires.

I think flattening excessively pyramidal hierarchies are the only real solution for this problem, but that's not much comfort for those who find themselves derailed due to this dynamic.

Practically, such people tend to be very concerned about their underlings also being their 'supporters' so if you can stomach it, presenting yourself as a fawning admirer and loyal henchperson is one route forward, although likely damaging to your own mental health and productivity. Jumping ship to another berth as soon as possible is the other option (of course, don't tell anyone this is your plan, as that will spark retaliatory efforts).
I feel like it's inevitable now that all streaming services are going to add an ad-based tier. Initially it will just be a cheaper option and you'll still be able to pay for an ad-free experience, but I am concerned that eventually the ad-free option will go away. It probably depends on how much money the services can make from advertising per subscriber per month - but it seems plausible that ads could be worth more per subscription to the streaming services than the $10ish dollars a month most of them charge.
So the "made with love" tagline should become "made with indifference"?
I didn't notice the Jupiter Ace was a thing back in the day, but a while back got the xACE emulator running. I imagine it was a similar experience. Seems like it should be easy to build a code-a-like with an RC2014 or similar system. (And you would have the option of adding a better keyboard.)

Not a relief, but that difference means one is a more pressing issue than the other. In the same way someone with chest pains in the ER goes back before someone with non-critical respiratory issues.

Because it makes you feel good? You certainly don't need it. It's a crutch. For socialization, sure. But to "wind down" or "de-stress"? That's not healthy in the long term.

Avoiding loving anything is surely different than avoiding loving a job.

A few weeks ago I went over my SMS history, going back several months.

About 99% of the SMS I get is bots. The vast majority was spam (making me wish I could disable SMS altogether), then some alerts (e.g from my bank) and 2SV codes.

The other 1% were delivery people.

Exactly 0.0% were people in my contacts.
I see high dollar but limited market as well - I’ve seen the course plans for below and RN level and it’s a lot. Adding tech at that level seems rife for issues, but at the high tier (re: same places that buy multi million dollar MRI machines) where the money is there, sure!

If it's the goal to implicate danger, this strikes me as a weird colour choice for dangerous messages, to be honest.

This whole "thing" around "bad" green vs blue message bubbles appears a bit, for the lack of a better word, insane to me as a non-american. The bubbles are fine. IMO, the problem is very obviously that kids can be cruel jerks and "not having an iPhone" is a social stigma for US teenagers, just like "not having a flashy cell phone with Bluetooth and MMS" was 15 years ago. Changing the colour will not fix this stigma, there still isn't an Apple on the back of the Android phones.

No it's a well known phenomenon. It's like opening the door only to women to simplify, but it will impact for instance a vote decision: "women are too precious to be dragged into political fights".

Another analogy I've seen used is that in countries where men violently force wifes, daughters and sisters to veil their entire body, they are all very surprised to be accused of misogyny: they love and admire women like we do dogs, and only aim at protecting them from dirty cavemen as much as possible. But, just like them, you wont ask you dog to vote and you ll give it a slap if it disobeys. Women in turn can then accept this fact of life and embrace their newfound respect for a masculine God protecting them from base men and would show proud humility and obedience, while men burn cars and foreign effigies at the first sign of minuscule disrespect.
There's really no benefit to lithium batteries in a car. They perform much worse in the cold, and they are more expensive. You don't cycle your car battery 100-0-100 so the fact that the useable capacity of lead batteries is lower doesn't matter.

Correct. Users don't need any color tricks to associate SMS with reduced functionality.
Someone somewhere in the justice department must have thought parody was not legal, otherwise, this lawsuit would have been quashed and this specific amicus brief would not be necessary. So if this specific brief was presented to those other courts that allowed this to continue, the reception might be different enough to make one thing this might just not be legal.
> in specific areas like middle school where it is still seen as important to try to project wealth.

Surely it's not middle school when people try to project wealth the most.. kids care more about who has an iPhone than adults but adults project wealth _a lot_ more than kids overall: fancy cars, homes, holidays etc. More expensive things are also nicer than their cheaper counterparts but I think most people would be lying if they don't say having access to them also gives them some status boost, if only internally. Can't turn off the monkey in the head easily.
It opens with an image of two green bubbles, one higher contrast than the other. The higher contrast one is labeled "Good" and the lower contrast "Gross".

After a two sentence paragraph expressing how the green/blue technical differentiation has become a social one, it then asks the question "Why is green worse than blue?" The next line: "The answer is color contrast."

What could they have realistically done to cut to the chase sooner in a meaningful way? The only real thing is ditching those two context building sentences. But it's two short sentences, providing relevant context.

Doesn't really feel like a valid criticism IMO.

It's actually really cherry-picked samples. All messages (blue and green) in the Messages app fade out slightly as you scroll. The author picked a blue message from the bottom of the screen and a green one from the top. If only they scrolled around a bit... they would have noticed.

They've done a ton of free content already, like Baseball or Jon Stewart and if I had to bet they're rushing to put ads on all the free access they're giving. Whether or not we'll see an ad-supported tier depends on how popular their other hobbled tiers are. The Apple Music paid tier but only with access through Siri comes to mind.
Yeah no. The iMessage white-on-blue isn’t a significantly better contrast ratio. I would actually prefer black text here.

Low contrast UI elements are the calling card of Alan Dye’s design team. The iMessage and SMS contrast ratio doesn’t rank because there are so many other UI issues that have crept in from this team over the years. If the blue provides a slightly better contrast ratio, it is bound to be incidental and if I were a betting man, I would bet that someone actually likes the green used for SMS.

This entire message style by the way is a direct descendant of iChat AV where you could actually choose your message color. When Apple developed SMS and then iMessageS for iPhones, they chose basically iChat’s design, and picked their favorite bubble colors and what we have today evolved from that.

IMDSv2 is really aiming to do two things:

1. Require a session to access credentials. You can only initiate the session with a PUT request to prevent some reverse proxy and WAF misconfigurations from becoming the front door. If your reverse proxy still supports PUT requests, IMDSv2 is going to reject anything with an X-Forwarded-For header

2. Once the session is established, it can only be used from the instance where the session began as you get an instance-specific token - so you can't take credentials and then plug them into your own client to start exfiltrating data
That's why I said green light, which is unusual in nature. Sure, it's a little green when it filters through leaves, but that's very hard to perceive because the yellow of the sun or the blue of the sky usually cancels that out. It's almost never enough to light up another object with green.
