So few people actually do their development/testing in truly-sandboxed environments that I don't think that there's actually much of a difference in practice between malicious code running in userspace vs malicious running in kernelspace ( https://xkcd.com/1200/ ). Of course, I'd love if sandboxed dev environments became more usable and widespread.
If you are using a mouse for things like this you already lost though.

I think that highlights the different incentives for an OS vendor and a third-party: Apple needed to be compatible but they didn’t want to be in that business long-term and focused more on getting developers to port their apps. Connectix arrived a year later and they had to deliver speed since nobody would buy it unless they did.
Strange arguments. Why do we need to replace Facebook, TikTok? No need to shut down, just block malicious sites, thats all.
My concern is that Sandboxie won't stop malware from stealing files, browser cookies, sessions, and opening a browser and puppeting it to steal your bank accounts.
The issue is that the unverified ones are basically the rest of the pool of Mastodon users. Let's put this to an extreme: if Mastodon were the only way to communicate, how would you trust a name over another, identical name?

Was the company really on its way to failure? It was rudderless and with no profit, but with him as CEO would he really struggle to keep finding VC funding? He could have slowly attrited the workforce over 3 months, 6 months, while defining a future vision, making sure he’s got everyone he needs and that he’s found the Jony Ives of twitter (exceptional workers who were stifled by the bureaucracy).

Instead he’s nuked the company workforce? I dunno. Seems a bit reckless to me. Why would twitter be under so much pressure?

Read through comments where the math is being done. Even the most basic UBI (say $500/month) would immediately become the most expensive item in the federal budget. At $1k/month it’s higher than the top three combined, which currently are nearly half the budget. Are you proposing a 80-90% increase in tax revenues (the federal budget is currently ≈50% higher than collected taxes)?
I found the following statement in the Maintainability section interesting:

> Maintainable code minimizes its dependencies (both implicit and explicit). Depending on fewer packages means fewer lines of code that can affect behavior. Avoiding dependencies on internal or undocumented behavior makes code less likely to impose a maintenance burden when those behaviors change in the future.

Obviously this guide was written for internal Google use, but it's interesting to see a recommendation that appears to run a bit counter to how ecosystems tend develop for languages that have easily consumable packaging solutions. It's not uncommon to look at a Go, Rust, Node, Python, etc project and see many dependencies (direct and indirect) in use, most of which you have no idea what they're being used for outside of some of the most popular packages. Not that I think the suggestion is wrong, I fully support fewer dependencies and using external packages where they make sense. I start to get uneasy when you see a tree of dependencies of unknown code, but I don't have the time myself to read through all of those packages.
Is there any regulated/"official" definition to the word "processed" in this context? I see the word so much in the context of food in general and I've never known exactly what it means.

So what though? It's not a feature for them, it is (was) a feature for us, so we know who we're reading. The proper list of people who "need" verification are those who would otherwise be targets of impersonation. That's always going to be a subjective decision, and the poster herself is probably the worst possible judge of notability!

I don’t want people who are sycophants for a billionaire on my team. It shows a lack of good judgement.

I don’t want people who think laying off half the staff, revoking WFH out of the blue, and then giving a hazy ultimatum with neither option well defined is a smart move.

I want people who know their worth, will speak the truth without fear of reprisal, not mindless followers willing to sacrifice everything for a company or a person.
> This doesn't even make sense as humans wouldn't devastate the local environment in an uncontrolled fashion the way new animals would.

The current world would beg to differ..

Do you realize that you are using human exceptionalism as an assumption (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exceptionalism)? And that you cannot hope to counter-argue on an ALF-inspired action by using the exact concept that their political stance is built against? To counter-argue you gotta start with a common ground, and your hypothesis are not in any way a common ground against that. The whole point of this thing is that there is a continuum space (not even a line) between rock, human, dog, forest, mushroom colony, dolphin, beetle, ant, ... and that tons of animals are actually pretty near from us or even quite further in several aspects. There is no human exception (or perhaps the human exception is to think there is!).
Ah yes the theory of the 4D chess player, I know it
From my anecdotal point of view, twitter's moderation system has never been better. No more false positives and seemingly no false negatives? Twitter has improved so much, I can see discussions on twitter. It's great.
Has anybody well-known ever used a phrase like "For my own personal safety, I apologize for XYZ transgression" when apologizing to a Twitter mob? Kind of curious how that simultaneous apology and subtle call-out might work.
If you look at your logs of botnet attacks, most of the traffic is scattered evenly across the world, and cryptoware is probably similar. Ultimately the command and control will go back to Russia (usually), but firewalling Russia and China is unlikely to help much with any form of attach.
I keep using Twitter and not much has changed for me in the last couple of weeks. Honestly I think most of it is FUD at this point.
> It's very clear what the intent was behind verification

The use of checkmark revocation as a punishment proves that the intent of checkmarks was to reward people with a sensation of being special, not to verify their identity.

> lying

You think I'm wrong, therefore I'm lying? Lying is about intent. I think you're wrong but I don't think you're lying. I just think you're foolish.
> Security of trust services basically always boil down to how "annoying" they are to compromise.

No, real security is achieved by mathematical / cryptographic impossibility. "Annoyance" is hardly a deterrent, except for the least determined attackers.

> Because there's actual oversight of the compliance and oversight of WebPKI CAs, unlike DNSSEC.

That doesn't matter at all, because if you compromise the domain's nameserver (like you would have to do in DANE to attack it), then CAs will just happily sign a rogue certificate, which can be used to do a MITM.

> No standard, no proof.

What a good argument. Your argument is basically like saying in 2002: "electric vehicles aren't viable because no infrastructure for them exists right now".

> Says you?

Well, if I'm wrong why don't you tell me why I'm wrong? How is that an argument?

> You haven't provided arguments why that would be the case.

I have, please read my comments.

I will say it again briefly so you can understand it: governments currently can attack any domain in the world, regardless of TLD.

In DNSSEC+DANE they could only attack their own TLDs.

Insecure DNS and WebPKI is therefore a government's dream come true, not DNSSEC+DANE.

> Please explain how so. I shouldn't be trying to prove the negative of your initial claim that is without support.

In DNSSEC+DANE governments can't compromise CAs, because they wouldn't exist.

That's why DNSSEC+DANE prevents the governments of Russia and China from doing MITM attacks against TLS-based services in .COM domains.

Do you understand now?

> > I only claimed that DNSSEC+DANE is simpler and much more secure than insecure DNS+WebPKI.

> And that's the FUD part.

Well, if you think it's FUD, are you going to actually provide valid technical arguments about why it's FUD like what I did with tptacek's post, or are you just going to nitpick my arguments, completely miss the points I was making and then accuse me of FUD?

Less high than combined - they don’t sell in the cheapest price points but since they aren’t dividing the money their products tend to be the same or even cheaper than equivalent quality PC/Android devices since you don’t have the duplicated overhead across multiple other companies.

One difference between US/Euro sporting events is it's seen more of a family thing in the US. You take your kids to see the big game, enjoy the atmosphere. In contrast to Europe, at times it seems kinda do-or-die for the team you put your faith in. One close comparison is maybe college sports in the US

Yep. I'm not going to bother replying or arguing with the posters that are touting psychedelics as causing breakthroughs in science and art. It's a common claim and it's exhausting.

When I was a teenager, I heard the claim and believed it. All these musicians and artists I looked up to did psychedelics! So I took psychedelics! What I came to find, however, was that all of those artists had some sort of classical training early in life and a decade of working hard touring/painting and building their professional practice. The drugs came after, not before.

I'll grant that stimulants may have made positive contributions. Oh how I love/hate stimulants.
You’re giving him a lot of benefit of the doubt. So far we only have his untrustworthy[1] statements about DAU slightly ticking up, but we have third party confirmation that he’s lost a significant number of employees in critical job roles with no explanation about how Twitter can survive long term without them and advertisers leaving which is dropping revenue. Until he has an actual win or a compelling argument as to how his strategy is going to improve long term, I don’t see why you wouldn’t look at his management of Twitter as a disaster

[1]he already posted a conspiracy theory, deleted it when called out, and then said he never posted it. That’s his recent behavior, if you trust his statements I have a bridge to sell you
Honestly the rust web frameworks are quite good. I don't find them any more verbose than say typescript or golang because enough higher level types exist to abstract away complexity. Majority of api code is just crud and business logic so it makes any difference in which language it's written in terms of complexity.

And the rust ORM libraries are catching up with other languages so there is no additional advantage from picking a gc collected language.
You are oversimplifying the issue. It's not about having your birthdate, it's about capturing data about your tastes and preferences over time to feed into a profiling model.

It's a way to capture data to use inference models to understand who you actually are, your tastes and personality.

Yes, Instagram/FB/Meta do the same, Google does the same, the difference is that Meta and Google are not the government or, worse, an adversarial government from your nation that could weaponise such data. Tailor-made suggestions and recommendations already work pretty well for adtech, tailored suggestions of content with aims to slowly shift cultures and perceptions is much more dangerous than serving compulsive consumption.

And yes, very likely the US government has some access to FB/Instagram/Meta/Google profiling data, I also believe that's dangerous (even more that I'm not an American citizen, nor live in the USA and still am probably surveilled by its government) but in a different degree and level than what TitTok and China might be able to.
You need to work on your reading comprehension.

To piggyback on this excellent response: USB C is very good. There is no foreseeable reason to have to change anything for a long long time.

Implemented with durable materials and good machining practices, USB C can last a lifetime of plug cycles. The standard lends itself to extremely durable design relative even to the tank that is USB A. The C standard is for 10,000 cycles, but this is only technically a minimum. USB A only specifies 1,500 technically, but A connectors have been manufactured that last 20,000. This all alludes to the idea that USB C is just a standard, and it doesn’t indicate exactly how the connector is designed.

The situation with bandwidth is similar. Bandwidth has many other bottlenecks. The speed with which data is written to a flash drive, for example, has nothing to do with the port itself anymore. Similarly to the durability issue, it’s going to be a long long time before the functionality of USB C is associated with more than 80 GB/s.

The agent is just following some script and if that calls for HAR for troubleshooting, that's what they're going to ask you for, no matter if it's a security concern.

Can you escalate it to a manager, or just use a different credit card? Google's not known for their customer service, and they're probably not very trained on how to handle foreign transaction problems. It's one of the downsides of using Workspace... good services, poor support, and mostly you're on your own to figure things out =/

Well, there's Mastodon, of course.

I'm kind of surprised that whoever owns Tumblr this week isn't pushing it harder; Tumblr is, when it comes to it, more or less twitter without the character limit and with a much worse mobile app (most Twitter features were effectively copied from Tumblr).

That said, I'm not sure that there needs to be a single direct replacement for Twitter; historically, when a social network dies, generally it isn't replaced by a direct clone but by different things.
It's not a real programming language in the same way Brainfuck isn't a real programming language, because it makes life too hard.
We're neither latency- nor bandwidth-sensitive, and both services are overall quite reliable, so I haven't actually paid much attention to that aspect. But there are plenty of war stories of people using ZT or TS to do absolutely bonkers stuff, like zero-downtime migrations between cloud providers, with a write-heavy DB in there.

I wholeheartedly recommend doing your own benchmarks! Everyone's workload will be slightly different, ultimately you should pick what works best for you.
> The US can probably replace TikTok with something "homegrown"

You say that, yet Instagram, Twitter(1), YouTube who have all tried so far have all failed.

(1): You're probably reading this and saying "What? not they haven't", well open a video on Twitter then swipe it up off the screen, you're now in TwitTok.
You’re misinformed. they said they’ll adhere to the regulation, and the regulation only requires usb-c if a physical charging port is available.

A lot of news outlets took that as confirmation, but it was never explicitly stated.

We’ll see in 2024 if Apple chooses to remove the connector altogether or switch to usb-c. My money is on the removal.

Loading a not-present page is handled by an exception being signaled, which the operating system has to handle with code.

The transparency is a great benefit, which can be attributed to exception handling.

That is hardly required for my point.

> send a signal to the process

That's another exception mechanism.

What about poisonous mushrooms, or rotten vegetables?

The pushback is against potentially finding negative impacts of one part of a category and labeling the whole category based off that one example.
Exactly, this integrity and sincerity is what is missing with this stuff. These people are apologizing out of fear, not because they feel it’s the right thing to do.
The first case is at least documented that it's the programmer's responsibility that the view should not outlive the object pointed to.

Finally, the address sanitizer helps you with that, however I wonder how many actually do use sanitizers?

Overall, I agree that something could have been done to prevent temporary objects at all. From my newbie point over view, it seems the standard API has the tendency to be lower level rather than ergonomic: it's up to you to know how to use it (and fuck up with it). Quite sad, because that kind of makes the language more difficult to use than it should be. I don't have enough knowledge, and I wonder if making the constructor on (const std::string&&) private/deleted would have been enough to prevent it?

The second case I guess the principle is similar. Not sure if the sanitizer finds the error there, but still scary.
You're saying that this study only concerns people who eat raw meat?

That's a good example of the way the sensation of importance manufactured by social media is to the detriment of society. If a company has something market-moving to say, let them go to newspapers. When traders are reading social media instead of newspapers, society has a serious problem.
It’s extremely difficult. Through Meetups, Discord, …

A group of us made it through Hands on ML last year.

https://github.com/ageron/handson-ml3

But that group didn’t want to do heavy theory but someone from another Meetup did so I invited them to our group.

Then someone who didn’t want to do the theory changed their mind.

Try meeting people online with a well-defined common goal.

For example, not simply “I want to learn machine learning” but I want to study a particular book or MOOC.

Getting people to agree can be difficult. No one else in my group wants to do Kaggle, for instance. Lots of cool project ideas that don’t go anywhere.

Discord seems like it should be the perfect place to meet people but most servers aren’t very active.

Here’s an OpenCourseWare server I found a few days ago that’s disappointingly not very active:

https://discord.gg/CSKeQegY

Ideally math, physics, writing, history, or whatever could be served by dedicated servers.
I know way too many people whom this has happened to. High school accounts, college accounts, even work accounts.

Even when it's a personal account, that feature messes up the C:\Users\username folder layout so then some apps save things into the non-OneDrive desktop folder and there's no way for an ordinary user to find them. Not to mention syncing broken program shortcuts (.lnk files) across devices and so on. This whole synchronization feature is a sysadmin nightmare slapped on top of a filesystem that wasn't designed to support it.
