HTTP Pipelining has the client sending multiple requests before receiving a response. It turns it into Request, Request, Request, Response, Response, Response.

The problem is that if Request number 1 leads to an error whereby the connection is closed, those latter two requests are discarded entirely. The client would have to retry request number two and three. If the server has already done work in parallel though, it can't send those last two responses because there is no way to specify that the response is for the second or third request.

The only way a server has to signal that it is in a bad state is to return 400 Bad Request and to close the connection because it can't keep parsing the original requests.

There is no support for HTTP pipelining in current browsers.

What you are thinking about is probably HTTP keep alive, where the same TCP/IP channel is used to send a follow-up request once a response to the original request has been received and processed. That is NOT HTTP pipelining.

All of my security cameras are isolated on my network. They do not exchange packets with the public internet. They can not phone home to the manufacturer.

If law enforcement has footage from my surveillance system, it’s because they have a warrant or because I willingly handed the footage over to them after someone made a bad decision on my property.
Amazon customers have the benefit of free returns, pretty much no questions asked within 30 days. I want to buy some commodity like an AC adapter or an SD card, I'll buy 3 or 4 different options and usually at least 1 of them will be OK, then I'll return the rest. If I only need 1 item and have multiple that work fine, I'll give positive reviews to the ones I return, which I feel is the least I can do for the seller.

With AirBNB and tourist traps, there are no refunds and the nature of the sale/service means you often can't find an alternative if you've decided to take the loss.
And it's a popular choice because the consumers often don't seem to care. Many are willing to accept poor customer service in the pursuit of lower prices for goods and services.

I'm not an expert on this, but my understanding is that GPU acceleration in virtual machines uses a "passthrough" method where the graphics calls on the guest system are simply translated to public APIs on the host system, and go through macOS's GPU drivers as usual. VMWare Fusion has had this capability on M1 since about a month or two ago.

This project is designed to provide an open-source replacement for macOS's GPU drivers in order to boot Linux bare-metal, so it solves an entirely different problem. Maybe some of the knowledge will carry over -- especially the userspace side of things Alyssa was working on -- but as far as I know this is not automatically transferrable.
Counties and cities can have open container laws too, so just because the state doesn't have the law doesn't mean you can legally do it.
This looks quite good!
We need a better alternative to DNSSEC. Its design is outdated and it's implementations can be very clunky. It's like HTML and Javascript in a way.

However, it's the system we've got. Unless you do some kind of on-the-fly domain generation or an outdated DNS registrar, it's quite easy to enable and it helps prevent all kind of weird DNS malarkey for those that care about their internet security.

HTTP pipelining is not normal usage of HTTP/1.1. And it means that if request number 1 fails, usually request number 2 and 3 are lost because servers will slam the door shut because of the lack of framing around HTTP it is too dangerous to try and continue parsing the HTTP requests that are incoming without potentially leading to a territory where they are parsing the incoming text stream wrong.

This is what led to the many request smuggling, its because the front-end proxy treats the request different from the backend proxy and parses the same HTTP text stream differently.

Since there is no framing there is no one valid way to say "this is where a request starts, and this is where a request ends and it is safe to continue parsing past the end of this request for the next request".

Servers are also allowed to close the connection at will. So let's say I pipeline Request 1, 2, and 3.

The server can respond to Request 1 with Connection: close, and now request 2 and 3 are lost.

That's the reason HTTP pipelining is not supported by browsers/most clients.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Pretty much all of art relies on inspiration and "inspiration". Pending few possible cases (I've yet to see) where actual art is lifted and pasted, all I've seen so far (firsthand even) is style lifting and even that not fully. Is style copyrightable?

Right before that era I worked on Mosaic for Windows, and the Mac developers sat across the stairwell from us. The Mac guys had a very love hate relationship with Macs.

On the one hand the lead was infinitely proud of being able to have 2 (or was it three?) monitors on his desk, big CRTs on a desk designed during the Cold War, by a designer who had nightmares about nuclear blasts and wanted someplace safe to duck and cover. You could do that with Macs but not quite yet with Windows. If memory serves, Linux got that ability before Windows did but don't quote me on that.

On the other hand they were writing what is ostensibly a concurrent application on an operating system with no protected memory and no pre-emptive multitasking, so the whole thing was using hand-rolled cooperative multitasking via C longjumps. It's no wonder the Windows team had an easier time keeping up with Netscape for that golden year. They were from what I understand cross compiling, and the Windows team could just do Windowsy things with a fifth of the staff.

So my experience of this era, through that lens, through learning to hate Macs at the hands of Mathematica, and also through rumor mills, was that a lot of Apple's OS people ended up going to Palm, where they made pretty much the same set of tradeoffs. It was very weird watching subsequent Palm models start to bump up against the same ceiling that NextStep was helping Apple route around.

I told my Mac loving friends to talk to me when Apple had a modern OS. So when NextStep merged my ears pricked up. My first Mac ended up being an anomaly. Apple briefly produced a 13" Mac with a discrete video card, which they haven't since. I had been struggling to get Linux drivers for a Fujitsu LightBook, which was ridiculously small, but was practically obsolete by the time I got everything working. That device is the sole time I've contributed to Linux, which was cool but exhausting. So I ran to a pretty UI, works out of the box, but ships with /bin/bash with open arms and never looked back.

You could still see the bones of NextStep in OS X for some time.

The university ended up with upward of 60 NeXT machines (which I later learned is a lot for one college), in 2 labs when I started, eventually in 3 that I knew of, one of which I ended up with after hours access to. On many occasions they were the only open machines. I had helped too many people who lost their papers to faulty disk drives and learned that the best way to write a paper was to keep my Unix account empty and mail myself copies, so it hardly mattered that I didn't have a floppy for the NeXTs. It didn't hurt that they never figured out how to meter the NeXT laser printer, so while it wasn't the best or fastest printer on campus, it was the only free one. "Your printah is out of paypah."
No, they are accounted for. The issue is entitlement on the side of tourists -- thinking they should have access to all the local amenities and stuff they do at home, while on vacation. This was a problem, but it was never a huge problem, from how I understand it, before AirBnB. Basically AirBnB changed the expectations for tourists, at the harm of the local communities.

I was an enthusiastic user of Airbnb until I faced the reality of the platform on a trip to Seul. After being offered to sleep in what looked like a maintenance closet because the room I had booked was no longer available for the first time contacted Airbnb support.
Apart of the fact that the experience was infuriating and frustrating, I am pretty sure 80% of the time it was a bot replying my messages not a support agent. I never got a full refund and I decided it was not worth the trouble, since then I just book hotels.
> School is not about doing great work. It's about learning the tools which you can use to do great work.

We have no compatible ideas if you insist upon this being the case. School is not "training for real life", it is real life.

The thought that it's appropriate and desirable to monopolize the bulk of the time, mental health, and attention of young people in order to keep them from attempting anything of consequence while they "prepare to do more work later" is deleterious to society.

(It is also not true that real writers know the rules by heart and choose to break them for their own effect. That implies that there is a real set of rules that people agree on and that every great writer is capable of producing a standardized set of writing that follows these rules. In fact, most great writers take great pains to tell personal stories of failure in school due to an inability and unwillingness to comply with their teachers, and this has been true since antiquity.)
Being that in the SFH neighborhood I live in there are a ton of homes that are serviced by lawn care companies, I don't think lawn maintenance is a determining factor.
In many cases TM pays venues to be their exclusive ticketing company. Before TM, venues purchased hardware and software. One of the most genius business moves of all time was this business model innovation.

TM does not keep all the fees they collect, but since the market views them as predatory they are providing "hated company" as a service for their customers.

With respect to dynamic pricing or pricing in general, TM is going to charge a percentage of the transaction as a fee and thus make more when demand is high along with their customer (the venue) and the producer/talent (the venue's customer). It's a complex supply chain.
> I don't understand how that could be a high-trust monocultural society in the 1800s.

It makes sense if you squint hard, and understand that "culture" in such arguments, is being used as a proxy of something else that is no longer acceptable to say out loud in polite company. So it was a bunch of disparate states with different traditions, but the same European "culture" (wink, wink, nudge, nudge).

I think students also believe they can hedge. If they just put down "yes" or "no" then their answer might be completely wrong, but if they drop a bunch of things in the answer then some of those things might be true and you might give partial credit, or, at least, they can argue about it later.

Feeling bad about paying for this kind of thing is one of the differences between the upper-middle class and higher, and the middle and lower.

Me, my upbringing was at least as much Fussell's "Prole" as his "Middle", so I don't even feel right having contractors do stuff on my house. Feels weird to pay people to do shit I could do, while I'm working or just fucking around or playing with my kids or whatever. I always feel like I ought to be helping. Took me a long time to stop feeling really uncomfortable having a cleaner come in every couple weeks. Still not totally OK with it, even years in.

I think some of this plays into success in business. Probably easier to climb the ladder (or just start higher on it) or start a business when you find it totally natural and ordinary to pay people to do stuff for you.

TaskRabbit and such are just... I guess, "democratizing" (seems especially wrong in this case) the same shit rich people have always done. Making it accessible a rung or two lower than it used to be. It makes me feel gross, but so does the other stuff that's not some new tech-enabled thing.

A direct analog of the GDPR is exactly what the US needs, especially with its framing of consent that doesn't allow the standard dance of nullification-via-nonconsentual-contract.

I fear that all of these half-baked state privacy laws are going to force a move for overriding federal legislation, at which time the surveillance companies will lobby hard for all sorts of loopholes that effectively neuter the protections, and the totalitarian status quo will be set in stone.

It's unfortunate the Internet surveillance industry wasn't nipped in the bud 15 years ago, now Surveillance Valley is held up as a bastion of "innovation" and most of the people who should know better are happily on the take.
> But that's just me right, obviously some (lots of) people like it! My initial comment was that it's surprising (to me) how few seem to not like it, so I'm perfectly aware that's just my (and some few others') opinion.

I guess it's a continuum ... I have people on my team right now that are working on a single story, other people who have a few dozen this sprint. If your team is breaking down what would be a single story on my team ... I could see that being annoying.

Now, the developer working on that story has a breakdown of tasks that they are managing as sub items in the story, but that's not getting managed with story points or any other heavy weight system.
We tend to use Airbnbs when road tripping/caravaning with others. It is significantly less expensive than getting two hotel rooms. When its just my spouse and I, we almost always use hotels, because there is far less risk involved (though it is still possible to find hotels that not well-kept).

That said, we've used about two dozen Airbnbs over the years, all in the U.S., and have never stayed in a place that was not exactly what we expected based on the listing.

I'm American and I certainly don't do anything like this in normal conversation, but absolutely do it over the phone.

I never did it in the era of landlines because there was a level of background noise present that you could tell the connection was working and assume the person was listening.

But then in the early 2000's when we switched to cell phones, filtering turned "not talking" into absolute dead silence, no background noise. And that was back when cell connections would drop frequently, and you'd discover you'd been talking for the past 3 minutes to nobody.

So not only would I make a conscious effort to interject "yeah", "right", "uh-huh" about every 30 seconds or so of the other person talking, but if I was talking and didn't hear anything for about 60 seconds I'd just ask if they were still there and explain why I was asking -- and then they'd just instinctually start peppering their listening with the same "yeah", "right", "uh-huh" after I'd ask like 3 times.

It's totally unnecessary now that so many calls happen over Zoom, but I definitely still do it over cell phones.

I agree with your point. Cleaning fees tend to make it hard to consider AirBnB for a weekend. That said, assuming the host doesn't just do it themselves, they're going to get a housekeeper in, rates are up for that sort of service, and that's about what it costs.
1. It's not the system we've got, because we don't got it. Less than 4% of .COM is signed. Virtually no important domains are signed, particularly at the companies with the largest security teams. The root DNSSEC keys could land on Pastebin tonight and nobody would need to be paged.

2. It's not quite easy to enable it. Evidence for that position: the litany of stories where companies have tried to enable it, like Slack did, and had multi-hour worldwide outages as a result.
