However, doing this and using a custom ROM will flat out disable SIM services menu and related functionality, which I need for my embedded e-Signature in my SIM card.

Also, we have a gatekeeper called Google Play Services. In other words, even if you have a custom ROM, you need that all-encompassing framework to have nice things.

Clients may differ, but the cloud platform and the connector which enables all these "Android" things is closed source, and controlled by Google.
It was not flash that we were fighting. it was adobe and their proriarity and thought process in keeping flash to themselfs.

If adobe would have not been the way they were, they would now dominate the animation scene too.

Instead, inadvertetly because of patents, we dont have anything cool to show for.

All this minimalism everywhere is disgusting. And they never get it right anyway because you have to put hightower ads everywhere you can.

While it still was macromedia calling the shots, people had trust in flash

No. Would you say that adding a least-squares fit to an Excel chart is "machine learning" according to that very specific and widely accepted meaning of "machine learning"? Is it machine learning if you do by hand on paper?
I think that a good system would be that the key can be signed by multiple parties. For example if you are running a web shop, your certificate could be signed by Visa if you accept card payments, by your registrar to prove that you own the domain, by the tax office in your country to prove that you are a real company and so on. And then the browser would show these signatures as badges when clicking/hovering the padlock icon. So essentially the more signatures the more trustworthy.

"It's always start over in a new stack." - I think you yourself have control over this, and may need to be ruthless. My career has been long, successful, OK not stress-free, but also not breaking point. Its been decently financially rewarded, some would say I could've earned much more but there-in lies stress and time famine. I'm content. I attribute this partly to vigilance about skillset. Find skills that are here to stay - Deep Linux, bash/zsh/whatever shell command line programming, Python, nowadays docker, AWS, devops, Go possibly worth a look. I shunned the MS stack - vendor lock-in and constantly being re-invented. I was wary of JS libraries - content flux and short shelf life. Be wary of obscure vendor specific stuff where that vendor can get bought out or change course. Tech with a big open source community is good long-term. And fun :). You may need to move jobs to get what you need. But I'd say, take ownership of skills, don't let people push you around, being forced to keep learning new stacks can lead to burn-out and impression of being weak performer. Don't let 'em do this to you. Even if you go to a new team with different tech, you can often find a way to use your base skills and not let them atrophy. Whenever I was on Windows I'd install Cygwin and do shell scripts instead of dos or powershell ;). you can do some tricks that solve problems quickly in weird ways that impresses people, I'm sure you know that. Good luck :)
That's a lot of work and would be a large project in itself to separate the test driver to different query formats and have it drivable from multiple programming languages.

I implemented a toy Cypher database (samsquire/hash-db) and I just use a python test script. I am yet to benchmark, the performance is probably poor.

I tried running standardised SQL benchmarks against MySQL but the benchmark code fell behind the MySQL client and it's work to maintain it.

I inherited a Jepsen suite to test ActiveMQ and it wasn't easy to understand

Testing can be a full time job!

While I completely agree with your sentiment, the problem is that of normalisation otherwise. If it's not such a big ask to require of you, that you accept side loading of apps for instance, then my efforts to keep making a stand on privacy grounds will increase exponentially.

I.e.: if it's normal to do side loading, then I become the odd man out for not wanting that on my device.

I have to say that even if the “rogue developer” story is accurate, the reaction to it is a little underwhelming. “Sure, our supposed E2EE software did some crazy sketchy shit including proxying trivially-decryptable network packets to god-knows-where through our servers, but, uh, that guy doesn’t work here anymore” is supposed to be satisfying?

I would assume that any decent spying agency can produce any certificate they want by some CA trusted by Chrome and Firefox and Safari.

Stock buybacks were outlawed after the Great Depression and a widespread realization that buybacks are insider trading.

The cynic in me says people have forsaken their local and national governments and this is the fruit of their inattention. Democracy and electing representatives requires work from the citizens. Want politicians to vote for more paid leave for rail workers? Write your representatives and make it an issue you vote upon over a period of time. Also put aside the echo chambers and study reality. Facts are the lifeblood of this country so learn them and shun shameful liars and grifters.

And ditch the animosity. No more “owning the libs”, no more sitting back and saying your government is failing. Ie no more “America in decline”-ism aka “decline-ism”. No more silly platitudes that masquerade as progress but amount to letterhead activism. Do some real work for the better of your fellows for an extended period of time.

Edit-Treat others the exact, one correct way to treat each other. As ends unto themselves and never as means to ends. That would demand more than simply adding some pronouns to vocabulary and would include things like paid leave, health care, and livable wages. Insisting upon basic quality of life measures for all workers and citizens. It’d also look like respecting each other enough to, if pressed, agree to disagree when nothing else can be agreed.

Edit-It’d also look like always plunking down a 20% tip on your fast food orders and restaurant meals. Treating the UPS delivery person with dignity and gratitude. Ceasing the road rage. Etc.
I'm not sure what your point is - both of those articles are making the case that Apple should be doing more rather than less. If users don't understand how to cancel an App subscription from their phone how much fun will they have when the same apps and more have tied their credit cards into recurring payments.

You could receive a spearphishing email from an AWS lookalike address, which includes a link to the real AWS login page, which you auth to legitimately but which then sends your credentials to somebody else.

This has a link expiry problem, as described in the article, but you can do similar things with e.g. a background tab that swaps itself out, starting the flow on demand when you go back to the tab.

That might catch quite a few people: a web page, which after X minutes in the background changes its favicon to AWS, and then next time you open it it immediately starts a device code flow and redirects to the real AWS login page. Looks just like you've gone back to an AWS tab that's just been logged out, and it's the real bone fide login so you can't tell the difference unless you remember where the tab came from. I imagine if you're working in AWS all day, it wouldn't be so unusual, and you'd just log in again.
Nothing. I've elaborated on other replies. Please take peek at them. I don't want to re-hash everything I've written here.
My first job out of school was final test for a semiconductor in Phoenix that had a small fab in Gilbert. I remember we took a rabbit suited tour there as part of the new hire orientation, it was pretty neat. The one thing though that stuck with me is how much water a fab needs on a daily basis. I can’t remember the exact number, I just remember thinking how stupid it was to build fabs in Phoenix.

But then again, the amount of lawns and greenways in Phoenix compared to a place like Tucson, it’s pretty clear most folks in Phoenix don’t much care about water conservation.
>Worse still all of those libraries are deprecated now, so if I want to do it again, I'll need to start again from scratch and select a new animation library.

This is why I stopped being interested in modern web anymore. Everything is deprecated at unbelievable pace, you can't keep track of it unless you work full time in the field. If it was all for great efficiency and performance, I'd get it, but it seems to just follow the newest fad every 2 years.

Can you show some concrete instances of it being easier to work with compared to UTF-8? As far as I can see you gain variable length encoding (albeit in a potentially confusing way) while losing ASCII support and also not gaining the pure simplicity of UTF-32. Oh and also endianness, although personally that's probably never an issue I will run into.
Could you point to any resources online about how to do this? e.g. is this using 8-bit quantisation?
"A moose once bit my sister. Therefore all meese must be sacked".

I have trouble seeing this as a steeled version of anything. "People have uncovered a flaw in the system, therefore the entire system is unfit for purpose" does not really make a compelling argument. It displays selection bias, hasty generalization, nirvana fallacy, and something about babies and bathwater.

I do agree that we shouldn’t allow something that overt.

But, if I read correctly, Rachel claimed that there was no longer any shared ownership and tried to explain that ownership in the sense that the word was being use was not a correct term in the first place. I believe she said it was a shared incorporation services / legal council / investor, at most, and that the speculation as to that relationship conferring any authority pertaining to the CA’s operations was entirely incorrect since the executive authority had long since been signed over to actual company officers.
UTF-16 is cheaper to decode. All CPUs have branch predictors, 99.99% of all UTF-16 strings don't contain any surrogate pairs.

For East Asian languages UTF-16 uses 50% less memory, these characters take 3 bytes in UTF-8, but only 2 bytes in UTF-16.

Seems reasonable to me. Although it's not ideal to distrust without a "smoking gun", it is (as pointed out) inadmissible for any ties to exist between a CA and a malware company.

Seeing how a closer look by Mozilla, Google and Apple into publicly available data quickly turned up more points of suspicion, I wonder how much scrutiny is put into CAs in general, and whether it's enough. Mozilla currently lists 148 trusted certificates [0] (soon to be 145, with TrustCor's departure).

Enabling Effective Remote Working – Principles and Patterns from Team Topologies
Let’s imagine it’s performance review time at our company and everyone agrees (or perhaps an infallible oracle tells us) that @like-oreally is contributing meaningfully more than @sokoloff to the company success.

But the wrinkle is @sokoloff is mid/late-50s and @like-oreally is mid/late-30s. Who should earn more pay? Who should be promoted to lead the next major initiative to drive the company forward?

Deciding to pay me the same or more for less value certainly makes things better and more convenient/comfortable for me. It does exactly the opposite for @like-oreally. Should they continue to over-contribute relative to their compensation in hopes that they’ll one day be in a position to receive more for contributing less? Does that provide the right incentives?

Does promoting me to lead that major new initiative put the company in the best position to succeed in the market and, via that success, continue to provide income for all employees?
It says at the bottom:

> When multiple moves have the top score, they are all top moves, even if visual markers (like move arrows) suggest the engine prefers one over the other.

Since all moves that checkmate the opponent will have the same score (M1 or -M1) they'll all be illegal.

For me, there was zero “ugh wall of text tldr” and a whole lot of “that wall of text I just read is obviously designed to obfuscate and hinder discussion” followed by noticing that she relentlessly kept pasting the SAME irrelevant/misleading walls of text over and over. She seemed to be actively trying to provoke the “ugh tldr” response as a tactic.

An example is the bit of boilerplate that kept repeating how the app was BETA and could only have gone to a small percentage of people (not relevant), and it wasn’t ever “published” (which is a lie) and how sdks get updated all the time and it is not our place to speculate about how that might have happened. This is an extremely abridged version of this “argument” that she trotted out repeatedly just trying to tire people out. There are many other examples of this type tactic in her responses. The overall effect is that she very much appears to be arguing in bad faith.

> The entire chain of the war machine is in local currency, backed by local resources.

Not really. There are already signs that the Russian military industry is in hot water now because there are no Russian semiconductor fabs that can supply the type of chips needed for anything beyond dumb ballistic missiles [1]. And it's not just chips, but also other basic electronic components or modules whose manufacturing has long since gone to China and other countries, some of which are under the scope of international sanctions against Russia.

> They are not some third would countries that have to buy their weapons abroad.

They are buying a ton of drones from Iran, for example, or Soviet-era stocks of artillery munition from North Korea [2].

> Said warmongering dictators do not need dollars or euros to wage any war.

Oh yes they do. No country on this planet is self-sufficient, not even the US. And it's not just about military equipment, it's about basic necessities of life, especially medicine and food. Russia needs money to buy these abroad, and for that they need foreign currency.

China is decades behind and will stay so because the industry is not standing still either.

The chip machines need maintenance which the Chinese cannot do themselves. They don't have the knowledge. They'd need ASML (European company) for that.
> For example, a company from country A limited to A's national TLD?

That's not an example of limiting CAs to certain TLDs; that's an example of limiting certificate users to a single CA. I'd sooner use a self-signed certificate than one signed by a monopoly government-controlled CA.

I’m not an App Store apologist, but also APT is hardly a fair comparison For many obvious reasons, not the least of which is that no actually relevant volume of humans use Linux. Servers aren’t people and don’t download random plugins and “Java updates” from their browser.

Drive by browser downloads and scams are the real threat vector. They’re still a thing in 2022. Just because your DNS based ad-blocked Linux desktop with a JavaScript free Firefox installed from the command line doesn’t see them, doesn’t mean they’re not there.

Maybe you don’t think they’re as important as “freedom to install what I want” but you can’t dismiss it as y2k fud.

That’s the core of most “app store apologist” arguments. That the control and peace that comes from the App Store is worth the loss of freedom. If you wanted freedom, there are alternatives.

You can disagree with the trade off, but that’s the trade off and other people prefer the other thing.

Personally, I want the pretty and powerful hardware of the iPhone and the freedom but I’m glad I don’t have to explain to my mother why her iPhone doesn’t need new Java.

As an embedded developer it always surprises me that simple programs are still barely any faster, take 100s of MB of RAM, require a decent CPU despite the fact we're all using supercomputers compared to the Windows 95 days.

How is it that physicists and engineers are pushing the limits of physics to bring us ever faster processors and we still can't smoothly scroll a webpage, where as I can design an embedded product with a GUI on a 40MHz CPU
> the demand for senior leadership FAR outstrips the available supply.

This is so very, very true. Most of the "bad" data science orgs I've spent time with, are bad because leadership is either bluffers or a data engineer/BI type person. It's generally hard for these types to run effective DS orgs as the skills needed are very, very different.
The point is that, in some cases where the writer or org may or may not have an interest in protecting, we don't even get "alleged terrorist" or "alleged fraud". It's all passive-voice companies that go bust and things that happen.

Now go look at some other examples where the writer or org has an interest in attacking and you will find, not only no shortage of "alleged"s but also a good dose of extra eyebrow-wriggling, winking and nudging there to suggest whatever number of other crimes can possibly be invented.
