The administrators described in the article are a symptom, not the cause. I attended a relatively high-ranked college a few years ago and would not have ever considered attending an event named "Exotic Erotic", because:

1. In modern society, everyone is carrying an Internet-connected video camera and nearly every nontrivial social event is filmed.

2. Sexual assault and harassment cases are often litigated in the informal justice system, where there is no statute of limitations, "guilty until proven innocent" standards are often applied, and "I was just a dumb kid trying to navigate a new social environment" is not an excuse.

3. Almost everything I did was expected to be a form of resume-building, even as early as high school.

Will my actions at Exotic Erotic look good to employers? Will they by acceptable to social media users twenty years from now? Can I absolutely guarantee that no one at the event will feel I made them uncomfortable? (Am I willing to bet my future career — the whole reason I am spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to attend an elite college — on all of the answers being "yes" just to attend one party?)

I mean, several campus advocacy groups were explicitly trying to tell men to stop engaging in those kinds of risky social behaviors!

I don't know that that's a bad thing. I've heard some people, especially women, really did get physically and psychologically injured at these kinds of events. Perhaps cancelling these events is a reasonable price to pay to keep those people safe.
I don't think that having a unique password per site is unachievable. I do it and I don't use a PW manager. Even something as simple as prepending the site name in ROT13 to a reused password greatly reduces your exposure to the sort of background infosec threat radiation that's like 99.99% of the threat model for most people
Well, for one thing, tiling WMs having "no config" and instead just being configured in the implementation language, is pretty much the standard. See StumpWM, Awesome, xmonad, etc.

Dwm is written in C. A tradeoff of that is having to recompile it. But it also has upsides like resource efficiency and speed.

I don't daily drive it and never did, but dwm has been a godsend back when I did embed, for implementing a highly restricted work flow easily for embed applications.

I think of it more as a template for quickly throwing together a custom WM from scratch, when resources are at a premium.

Edit: Namedropped the wrong WM.
I did: it's a notionally independent unit of Stanford that has an endowment of $0.7B, while Stanford as a whole has $37.8B. Can this tail really wag the entire dog?

Not sure why "supposed" is in quotes here. You're "supposed" to fill your car with gas by waiting til you come across a gas station, driving in, parking at a pump, getting out, pressing the button to open the gas tank, plugging in the hose, pumping gas for as long as it takes to fill the tank to the desired level, paying, and so on.

Compared to plugging in an EV at night and forgetting about it and this being sufficient for 99 percent of my driving needs, getting gas sounds like it has vastly more shortcomings and that's before you look at any of the other crappy things about it.
Running my own mail for 20 years, I've never experienced any of the commonly cited problems re delivery to cartels like Gmail etc, but YMMV there...

Tech wise, in the old days it was sendmail and pine/mutt/etc, more recently courier, these days postfix and dovecot.

I wouldn't ever consider outsourcing something as crucial as email as it's not e2ee and being able to diagnose delivery issues and fix them quickly is very important.

> difficult to overlook that the conservative, free-market ideology that triumphed in the Reagan-Thatcher era

The western conservative parties have disgraced themselves over the last 40 years with their failure to conserve successful free-market competition, no doubt. Looking at the US, and counting likely 2nd order effects, the majority of the economy is directed by government spending. ~40% directly, and probably double-digits indirectly as services to that 40%. Major fields like education, healthcare, energy, banking and housing are paralysed by regulation.

The US still gets to claim relatively free market vs Europe or Asia, but the situation is so far gone it is debatable whether there are any genuinely free-market policies. A free market would not be paying for these administrators, for example.

But all of that doesn't mean that the universities exist in the conservative image. The situation is the ugly compromise between a failed conservative movement to re-establish free markets and anti-market forces.

This sounds sufficiently cloak-and-dagger, or possibly paranoid that you should consider finding an agent who would present your work to Netflix. Don't release the novel, or release only an audiobook, with an engaging, charming narrator who can disarm dissenters.

It sounds like you seek confrontation even if that's not your objective; if it is your objective, then it sounds like it's all going-to-plan. If not, then perhaps expose your work only through mediators, so the message isn't lost or lessened, but the voice and antagonism are dissipated.

A good agent can be a writer's salvation. No writer is an expert in self-marketing, and close proximity to the words ensure significant bias.
They forgot the masterpiece I saw years ago:

1. Give all your Python class members a tedious naming convention.

2. Be DRY by writing helper functions that do name lookup based on a string of the last half of the member name.

3. Be even more DRY by having the function guess a little if the match isn’t exact

You now have an application where you cannot search for where members are referenced.
Agreed, expectations are everything or at least very important to keep sanity in this area.

Reality is that big majority of startup-s do fail to "make it" 90% of time to even be self sustaining. Financially meaning that you pay from your pocket overall and the resources have to come somewhere, day job or whatever, making it very much overwhelming and can break even a strong man. Only small percentage out of those 10% actually make it to sustainable enough to live by.

Percentages can begin to rise on your favour after learning from failures but there is of course no guarantees, some domains are inherently much less forgiving or have fierce competition. It is important to resarch and understand the landscape you're going into.

If you realise your odds then mindset starts to get clearer, you know what you risk losing and accept that loss is likely, you still put enough effort to win but don't set your mind so deep that everything collapses with the project.

It might be contrary to some suggestions that you have to put everything into startup to have a chance but that is also correct imo, you do have to be able to invest all your available time on the project. Keeping in mind that the project is not absolute everything in life and being able to walk away at right time as to not sunk endless resources to unfruitful endeavour keep you healthier.
When Americans talk about “below 0”, they must be talking Celsius, correct? Is it common to use that term even though they use Fahrenheit for everything else?
When I read doom articles about climate change I always end up in this hopeless "its going to happen anyway" mode, its a part of why I'm tired of the "we are going to die" movements.

Preventing climate change is going to take massive changes that no companies or goverments actually want to do, its all half-assed political virtue showing.

The change your life (to the worse most of the time) to appear as climate conscious as possible, rather than actually focusing on things that matter crowd certainly arent helping either.

IMO individual actions don't matter at all here.
The absolute brilliance of this entire system is how Steam / Valve deals with the Deck hardware.

Because you might think, at first sight, it just downloads the Windows version of a game on the Deck which it the runs through its Wine-based but very optimized Win32-to-Linux layer called Proton (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton) and that's it right?

Well, that's actually wrong :)

Valve learned a lot when they added MacOS support to Steam and they did the same thing for Linux and especially Linux on the Deck.

When you install a game through Steam on the Deck it downloads a package made available by the developer for the Deck whenever possible. So the "Verified for Deck" games could also very much be "optimized for the Deck" games which means:

- They can have a UX completely optimized for the Deck (looking at you, Rimworld)

- They can contain models, shaders and textures especially optimized for the AMD APU

And last but not least:

- While the developer - ofcourse - is just able to test and deliver the Win32 binary on Proton and be done with it (looking at you, Elden Ring) they can also create a specific Linux binary optimized for the AMD APU in the Deck!
Hmm, I wonder if the increased resistance is overcome by the fact that ICEs can put out more power with colder denser oxygen rich air.

This is why performance cars sport cold air intakes. This is also why your car won’t hit its quoted 0-60 time in a warmer environment — those tests are normally performed or normalized to cold air conditions + 0% humidity. Just what counts as cold depends on manufacturer / reviewer.

Anecdotally, I track efficiency and drive consistent routes, and don’t notice a diff.
Well, a lot of the Daytonas that people fawn over have zenith movements inside them...

I also don't think I buy my watches as status symbols. I very much doubt most people could even tell you what an IWC costs, even less have probably heard of Zenith.
In city driving my ICE gets 6-8km/L in summer and 8-10 in winter. On the highway it gets 10-12 in either season

Love coming here too and seeing what the community is talking about on a given day.
So who else is sometimes confused with the new strange curves on the notifications? For some time now I often think they are a stack when they ar not. It’s because of the shape, not sure how to put this in words but the lower part of the curves is way more stretched out than than the vertical. It’s made worse because of my dark mode and dark bg probably.
Such as? Not some crazy extreme examples, but in the mainstream?
Best part is that it is really easy to export the passwords too!

I exported the passwords and imported them onto my self hosted instance of Vaultwarden. After activating the Bitwarden extension for Safari, all of my passwords are now synced to two places.
"oh, you don't have to make yourself smaller, take all the space you want."

Have you considered that they're doing it because they feel crowded, not because they're overly concerned about other people feeling crowded?
Yes my comment made a lot of assumptions, but the original post invited them I think. Reading the other comments from the original poster changes the tone of the original message a lot. I think for someone who knows the term "infosec" and has a mental algorithm, a password manager isnt necessary per-se. If we are talking about the general public, in a constantly evolving digital world, I think password managers are a good thing. I think this site is a tiny fraction of the potential userbase for a password manager
After migrating to another password manager, do you also need to rotate all your passwords? Or at least the most sensitive ones? Or is the LastPass hack so far unlikely to compromise the passwords? (since I understand only encrypted data is in hacker's hands)
I wish me the very best for 2023 as well, and I've realized life is actually out in the real world and if they're thousands of miles away, go visit them. Otherwise you just want to endorse that shithead Zuckerberg's perspective that the future is online. It isn't and kid, there are things worse than death...
Yeah, let experience meaning time spent doing a thing become worthless.. Who would benefit from that?
If I understand correctly, it's the lack of a heat pump.
Reusing passwords or having low entropy passwords is a larger risk.

The thing is... Your password manager should be offline, not a cloud service.
I was involved in the Associated Students of Stanford University, the "student government." It's an independent non-profit, but also recognized by the University, and constantly on the edge of being consumed by the admin bureaucracy. I made an explicit effort to spend funds in a way that was specifically targeted at "fun" programming, but in retrospect I should probably have been more radical.

Also interesting to see the traction Eva (the author of the Palladium article) has gotten. She has a complicated reputation, but I'm glad to see a major constructive contribution.

Any Alumni in the Bay who want to help support student self-administration, I encourage you to reach out to the ASSU. It's an institution perpetually lacking wisdom (like any student group).

It's because he knows that those things are relative commodities, and in 5 or 10 years the rest of the industry will eventually catch up in every single way. Hyundai and ford are pretty much %80 of the way there already.

As far as I know, it’s only believed that the attackers have the encrypted vaults of LastPass users.

However, that does mean they can attempt to “brute force” the encryption, trying any number of passwords as often as they like - and it seems some earlier versions of LastPass used rather poor choices with that cryptography, meaning the amount of effort needed to make an attempt is lower than other similar services (plus some users may have rather poor master passwords, making them easier to guess).
Before <chrono>, any high performance timing operation (ms and below) was a nightmare. Any solution one could conceive of was highly dependent on local system calls which in turn would vary based on OS scheduler and CPU idiosyncrasies.

<chrono> abstracts all of that away and replaces it with an easy to use API that is cross-platform. It was a god-send for a project many moons ago. Required me to upgrafe to C++14 but totally worth it.

Kudos to the <chrono> team for resolving such a painful issue!
DO is probably the worst choice as they have one of the worst reputations for emitting trash... I drop do entirely and have done for a few years, nothing appears to come from there apart from trash though so I haven't noticed any problems there. Literally anyone else (even ovh these days) would be a better choice for delivery success.
Is this original daoism or did you derive it from something?

You framed it as disagreement but you said is 100% consistent with the parent comment (read it more carefully).
std::chrono was introduced in C++11, but it got a bunch of enhancements in C++20.

Track your time on a consistent route on paved, snow free roads. I guarantee you'll see a dip in winter.

Scorching heat with high humidity has an opposite effect. H2O drops the density of air and you can go measurably faster than in drier air.
I don't think I'm going to be able to change your mind, but chatting to some more Stanford grads might. Not everybody is the stereotype. I'm sorry you've had such a bad experience.

Just for the record, I studied at a very unprestigious journalism school in Australia. But I work with many Stanford grads and in a company with it's fair share of assholes, they have all been lovely.
Here's the original post with more detail:

That thread is hilarious to look back on, now that history has proven Linus was incorrect about both:

- word-wrapping (the correct approach is to indicate preformatted text in markup and allow the viewer to control wrapping for all other text)

- his own demeanor (Linus stepped down in 2018 from his role as BDFL of Linux to "get some assistance on how to understand people’s emotions and respond appropriately").
How proud one can be about carbon copying a competitor.
Sexual repression, hindrance of science and education, restrictions of liberties, and wars come to mind.
No, but apparently the urls were not encrypted, so that could be quite a gold mine for blackmail.
There's no difference. They're both taxis. It doesn't matter who or what is driving it.

They do seem to hate fun indeed!
I believe they are only the encrypted vaults, but with the cost of compute plummeting and the inclusion of unencrypted data alongside the encrypted data I think you have reason to worry if you believe there are people who would perform a dedicated attack on you, or you are in a class likely to be identified as high value.
Not really. It is not that we can convince then. And it is mostly that the world moved toward these and that they won at convincing others.

What's relevant and important?

Pretty much - per the article - everything NOT being "news'ed." Don't let presentation and confidence fool ya. Most of "the news" isn't.

Either you understand the intent and purpose of that system or you don't.

The question isn't "what's important and relevant?" The question is: is this nonsense being presented as important and relevant actually so? Passively accepting and defaulting to "yes" is The Biggest mistake you can make.
That’s great but for 95% of the population they’ll never do that. They’ll come up with a generic low security password that’s easy to both remember and type. And they’ll reuse essentially that same password on every site.

So, for your practices maybe a password manager is a step down. But for 95% of the popular it’s a step up.

Security is a spectrum, and password managers move most people to a more secure stance. You can yell at people that they can be more secure until you’re blue in the face, but most of them will shrug and ignore you.
Thanks!! I have in my living room a quad core i5 server doing transcriptions all day, and then I move them to a low cost quad core VPS in contabo.com running the whole thing!
Does Bitwarden support a keyword shortcut that brings up the password search? (outside of browser preferably), couldn't find one.
> This is partly because so many things want an account now. I have over 500 passwords saved, it would be straight up impossible to remember unique strings for each site.

How many of those accounts are essential?

I create throw-away accounts on the regular.

There are many accounts, but few that really matter. For the ones that matter I take care to make sure I have the passwords. For the rest, who cares :)
Cool, now go explain that to your parents. NOW make sure they go through and change every single password on every single account they currently have and don't just get annoyed like 5 passwords deep and decide not to bother.

The issue isn't you or me, it's what 99% of the world has to use. For the large majority of people, a password manager with one super strong password (and 2FA) makes WAY more sense.
There is something to be said for the performance benefits of recompiling for config changes. No need to check flags and branch at runtime.

That said, I still think it’s ridiculous
Merry Christmas, all. It is awesome of those who have shared their life stories here, to have done it.

Happy holidays too.

Even when it comes to cars, often the US base model has a larger engine than the EU base model.

No idea why: speed limits are often higher in EU and often with more hills.

There’s no particular reason that a dryer and washer have to go in the same room. I have my dryer in my garage, because it’s a hybrid heat-pump model that is very efficient when the garage is warmed up from the afternoon sun, but can provide its own heat in winter. It captures all the water in a tank, so doesn’t put any moisture into the room. Modern dryers are really quite neat :)
You can always try to pitch it as some reality show to Netflix et al, I know of someone in similar circumstances that managed to get something produced although on a regional level in Europe.

Before deleting your account it would be good measure to update passwords to passwords you don't really use. You never know if deleted data is deleted from db as well.
