Important note: ZeroSSL is not a certificate authority but a certificate reseller who is paying an actual CA, Sectigo, to operate a white-label intermediate certificate with ZeroSSL in the name[1].

As a non-CA, ZeroSSL isn't required to provide an incident report or revoke any certificates like the researcher is requesting. Fortunately, their bad security can only impact their own customers, in contrast to a CA whose bad security can affect everyone.

With my Rust hat on: I don't think that Rust would have solved this. It might have made the code in question easier to understand, as you note, but this kind of error can still happen in any language.

No, all (?) these things let you pass raw SQL straight to the database.

In the case of JDBC and ODBC (and I think DB-API) thats all they do.
AcousticBrainz and Echo Nest, both gone now. It seems like only Pandora's Music Genome is still functioning.

I know this is a Hard Problem, but I also think it is a problem with a great deal of payoff. Art (music, movies, books, etc) is unique in that someone will very much want "more of the same" but not the exact same thing (the identical song). People want the same cheeseburger over and over again, but not the same bit of music. Being able to say "more of that" and actually get the right results back, rather than "more of what other people who liked that song liked" would be a huge boon, but so far, we just don't have the analysis to automate that kind of thing.

It's also hard when it comes to identifying what features must be conserved. On Reddit, you'll get questions, say in the /r/horror subreddit, such as "I really liked May; more like this!" and I will ask, "More with Angela Bettis? More by director Lucky McKee? More about body parts? More where the lead undergoes some late stage transition from average to alluring? What, in particular, did you want more of?"

You can sort of replicate this on Discogs by looking up band members and trying to hunt down later or earlier projects from them, but again, that's just a proxy for a particular quality.
> I use the Stylus extension for Chrome (also available on Firefox) to write user styles for sites, mostly to improve the legibility of text, but for sites like HN and Reddit that I browse a lot I've customised their look and feel extensively to match my tastes. Creating a custom style for a site just requires you to click the Stylus button in the toolbar, click on the site name at the bottom of the menu to create a new style and open the editor in a new tab and then add your CSS and hit save.

Yes, I'm talking about that kind of thing. It's trivial for people who want narrow sites to put a max-width on the root element that way. As someone who wants wide sites, how do I do undo all these designers' narrow widths without having to figure out manually what each individual site has done?
If you count bacteria etc single-cell organisms, then I'd assume close to 100% naturally occurring water has some amount of life in it.

Gossipers are often very immature deep inside. They'll react to social stress that way, and over time it gets very tiresome.

About the corporate information game, I'm still a bit curious how it works (like many Ive seen my share of videos about social skills, and manipulation even, but i still don't see how this would work in real life) but everytime I'm tempted to play games .. I just feel drained. My soul is really not wired for that. Honesty is a supreme value.
Well, you'd have to have a safe place to literally store that cash. If that save place was a bank, then you'd not have silver dollars, unless you paid for storage.

Also banks weren't really safe that entire time!
The federal courts have very basic computer systems. When I was a clerk a decade ago in a circuit court, we didn’t even have a document management system or version control. I think there might have been a shared folder with word versions of old opinions.

I like bash, and use it as often as possible.

Sometimes the projects become large. I needed a tool to help generate documentation. Makes it easier to step away, come back after some time, and re-acquaint myself with the monstrosity I've wrought.

`awkdoc` generates markdown documentation from in-line comments in shell scripts.
My favorite are the press releases from companies that say they need a quantum computer to do logistics and routing. I'm still waiting to see one of the solutions the QC came up with that couldn't have been produced by a modern constraint solver or heuristic router for 1/100th the cost and time.

If you live in a dense city, you may be better served by getting a commercial "emergency food supply" product. A 2-week food supply from one of the major suppliers of such products is about $125 and fits in 2 5-gallon buckets. Alternatively, you can get similar foods that come in #10 cans, they store nicely under a bed.

I use these products for backpacking and they will obviously never match a real home-cooked meal but they are decent in a pinch.

That covers you for food (you will need water), and just expanding your paper goods slightly should be plenty. You're not trying to become a "prepper", you just want to get through a bad week.

Nope. Life is exclusive from earth at this moment. No fossils or live animals, fungi or plants of any kind in Mars.

I have been running the same copy of Facebook and Twitter and certainly YouTube on my phone for many years now. The only people who have been able to try to push updates at people like that are Snapchat, and even they have a hard time doing it quickly and at scale: and it only results in a temporary loss of service for the alternative clients!

(And, even then, most of the success for Snapchat comes because 1) the official clients for Snapchat go far out of their way to do crazy obfuscation techniques and 2) they wield a ban hammer over end users over trivial infractions making it difficult to test; I fail to see how such would work for YouTube, where third-party clients are, in fact, plentiful).

At F8 back forever ago, the reason Zuckerberg cited for having to give up on "Move Fast and Break Things" and go to "Move Fast with Stable Infra" is because they in fact couldn't rapidly push updates to their apps across the myriad supported platforms the way they could with their website, and so they effectively had to maintain API compatibility across ridiculously long timespans of client versions... much long enough to let the alternative clients reverse engineer the new builds and have updates out before Facebook can just kill service to the old ones.
This is not legal advice but I think they are. See Brandenburg v Ohio.

"Brandenburg was convicted of violating a criminal law that prohibited speech that advocates crime, sabotage, violence, and other similar acts after he spoke at a KKK rally. The Supreme Court found that the law infringed on Brandenburg's First Amendment rights, and created the imminent lawless action test. In order for speech to fall out of First Amendment protection, it must 1) be directed at producing imminent lawless action and 2) it is likely to produce such action."

I think there is an exception for ones made against certain public officials, which IMO are likely unconstitutional, but no one is really excited about challenging those.

The court system operates almost entirely on trust and the threat of career-ending consequences for breach of trust.
Fair enough, but this is also true for checkboxes.
Netflix: Reed Hastings to Exit Co-CEO Role, Will Remain as Executive Chairman
Those flagship projects that failed technologically were amazing successes.

> received copious media praise

That's the success criteria.

IBM makes money in lots of ways. The last few decades they've struggled with public perception, and an image of being "has-been". This has hurt their ability to get talent and enter new markets. Having your name next to neat, futuristic tech is a good way to counter that image. Even more so when it's things like Watson and Quantum computing that have real nerds doing actual fawning over the tech.
The sad thing is that third-party apps are actually good for twitter. Musk continues to cut his nose to spite his face.
They'll be slightly less rich, but still considerably more rich than most of us.
> But it’s not really like that for Twitter. They can do rapid updates to the iOS and Android apps

They can do rapid updates to the apps but doesn't it take time for users to apply the update? Where I work you can't expect people to update their app right away, it takes days or even weeks for people to catch up.
Honest question - I've been using Ivory for the past week but it doesn't seem to do anything that Metatext or the Mastodon app didn't already do. What's so fantastic about Ivory? I feel like I'm missing something because everyone speaks so highly of Ivory.

Thanks!

I dunno, maybe my brain is wired differently but this sounds like fluff.

Maybe I've been fortunate that growing up, I've had stoic figures in my life and through their beliefs/actions solved problems through grit and hard work.

I struggle to understand if people live their lives by looking themselves in a mirror and saying positive mantras and hoping that one day they will see themselves this way. I thought this was just the lore of movies.

If a voice (myself or a anyone else) said "I love and accept myself, exactly as I am/I love my well lived-in body" and would suspect it was trying to trick me somehow/pulling my leg and I would laugh and tell it/them to F-off.

I think my critical voice has gone from inwards to outwards. It doesn't say "You suck and you're an imposter", because it's been distracted by the so many examples of other people being so much more incompetent and lacking basic critical thinking skills, that even if I'm a complete screw up, I'm not that bad. e.g. lack of basic financial understanding, solving problems, tribal voting.

I think I've come to realize if I want to fix certain things about me, that I've chosen (at this point in time) not to do it and to move on, but that I can revisit and try and fix it in the future.
Make no mistake, there are no benefits to Twitter doing things like this.
TweetDeck too as the official power-user web-client.

At the time I thought of building a client but the dependence on Twitter seemed like a huge risk. More fool me though given that those companies were taken over for a decent amount.

This is the rub, and I do believe the answer is "no" :/. But, "Apple having central control over software development and distribution is, at its best, an extra-judicial defense of surveillance capitalism (...and, at its worst, an extra-judicial defense of totalitarian regimes)" is at least nothing new :(.

I really miss the iOS jailbreak ecosystem--back before Apple really started to win--as I felt like I could just build whatever I wanted (as long as it was legal and I definitely had lots of lawyers to check some of the stuff I had wanted to release ;P) and push it without asking for permission from Big Tech :(.

I think it probably would surprise a lot of people. But you're absolutely right that the Finance 101 argument for how a stock should be valued is the net present value of its dividend stream. Largely fail at the individual firm level of course for various reasons (and is a naive estimate for those many reasons) but it shouldn't be too surprising that it works in aggregate.
It's almost acceptable, except that there's no timeline sync between clients - personally for me it's a pretty big dealbreaker
Yeah this is definitely the best response. Unfortunately most people (especially on Stackoverflow) are not as wise as you and will just downvote your question and say "you shouldn't do that".
I spoke about crypto speculation, and I was explicit about that. I choose not to debate speculative claims about crypto's potential for becoming a useful "store of value" or "currency for commerce" at this time and in this place.

As to letting the market decide things, I lived through the Bre-X scandal, where the market decided to invest in a fake mine, and real lives were ruined. I believe in regulated marketplaces.
We have not found any evidence of life of any sort on Mars, much less of multi-cellular life. I imagine that even the most optimistic pan-spermic ideas would involve far more primitive/rugged life-forms than crustaceans.

Sadly, I think you are missing Alito's political slant. That aspect typically makes him a super villain and, of course, guilty of all accusations.

I can't help you with the $ problem, but if storage space is your limiting factor you can buy commercially packaged "survival food" that comes in #10 cans and/or 5-gallon buckets. A 2-week supply of food at 2k calories per day takes up about 2 5-gallon buckets. #10 cans can be stored under a bed. You'll additionally need water and a way to heat it. I think most of them can be eaten cold, but that seems very unpleasant.

This, obviously, is a different strategy than buying bulk and cycling through your regular eating. A 1-2 week supply is plenty for most people. You aren't trying to become a prepper, you're just wanting to get through a crazy blizzard/hurricane/whatever.
I’m trying to understand, and forgive me, maybe the core Retool product explains this better—how is this different from something like Capacitor/Ionic or React Native?
> Since 2007, Twitterrific helped define the shape of the Twitter experience. It was the first desktop client, the first mobile client, one of the very first apps in the App Store, an Apple Design award winner, and it even helped redefine the word “tweet” in the dictionary. Ollie, Twitterrific’s bluebird mascot, was so popular it even prompted Twitter themselves to later adopt a bluebird logo of their very own. Our little app made a big dent on the world!

Wow they really helped make Twitter what it is today

What are the chances Reddit goes down this path and kills the many amazing third-party clients? I absolutely love the one I use and detest the official Reddit app.
There's probably a need for legislation here. It's completely normal and vital for competition that you can make things that are (adversarially) interoperable with others in the physical realm and you can't really be stopped (as long as you don't just copy).

That's not really a thing once you involve software. It's trivial to lock things down using cryptography and constant changes, making any kind of interoperability entirely infeasible.

As far as I understand this is pretty unprecedented and very bad for an efficient market.

This is a stretch, but I wonder if Twitter is open to liability for summarily shutting down its third-party API access.

Is there any potential upside to suing?

and 2 years on servers? still worth a shot. I bet it can be much faster in certain scenarios.
Precisely.

I wouldn't judge anyone who bought it a month ago for asking for a refund, but if you've been using the app since 2019 or something, you got what you paid for, for years.
AI can't produced anything new/novel. At least not yet.. It's just remixing, which is legit but still only a subset of the creative activity on the planet. If one is not original, ok fine current AI could possibly replace you but substitution was always a threat for this group

> Because dividends are ultimately why people buy stocks in the first place?

I would disagree, I feel like the mojority of stonk owners think dividends are passe companies, and a real company would reinvest its earnings or buy back stock. I disagree with these people. I think a company that has no intention of paying a dividend is merely an over produced digital collectible.
One of the things that confuses me is that the Justices and the employees are categorizes as two different entities i.e. saying something akin to the people with access are 82 employees and the Justices. But then all the investigation only says the employees. Does that mean all the justices weren't given the same scrutiny?
It’s obviously bad business (for Twitter given the cost / benefit) and show’s Elon’s lack of empathy but also demonstrates the perils of having a user like him run the show.

He literally couldn’t care about anything that doesn’t affect his own experience of the product. Features, clients, parts of the world, even users - if Elon isn’t interested then it will probably go or be ignored.
Arcane not to computer users but to the general population. Before the advent of GUIs, computer usage tended to be very much a niche thing. Heck, even well into the Windows era, it was still niche. I remember riding the train to work in the 90s and overhearing a conversation where an older man engaged in some sort of business (no idea what), was complaining about having to have a computer on his desk at work.
Agreed. There is evidence. There is not proof.
What is the issue then? I have colleagues in Ukraine and bank transfers at least from EU work just fine.

Heard about using Bitcoin as their only option from people who moved to EU from Crimea.
I think the way evolution operates is quite a bit more complicated than "one bitflip at a time". The way evolution operates is a meta-process that itself was shaped by an evolutionary process which took place (mostly) long ago.

IMO, the genome is like an abstract system which was "designed" for evolution. It can move in one direction or another on the phenotypic plane actually extremely quickly under strong environmental pressures (on the order of only a few hundred or thousand years). And the winds of environmental pressures are frequently shifting, producing what was likely a very thorough and aggressive search of the state space.

I agree there is probably a lot to be learned from further study of the human body and brain, but we will have to re-invent a lot ourselves too since the machine capabilities we are looking for are really a lot different than the constraints that humans were shaped under.
Given the amount of users that use and evangelize Apollo for iOS (including myself), that might hurt Reddit more than the loss of third-party apps for Twitter.
