Also, security is like reliability/uptime: You pay for every nine. You want to keep the server up on a best effort basis and have only the most basic security? Cheap, easy, minimal time investment. You want 1 minute down per month and good security? It'll take time and effort. You want... IIRC airplanes have a failure rate around 1 in 14 million flights, give or take?

Those guns are not cheap. I once worked in a startup that wanted to put thermal cameras on commercial planes to measure volcanic ash concentrations. The cameras had to be behind a special glass that is transparent for thermal radiation. But as the glass size exceeded certain size, it required to certify against bird strikes. It turned out the cost of the certification was like 500K euros.

I don't think the author intended to say that you can prevent all problems, I think they meant you can't just shrug and say "we can't help but get hacked". You can stop all problems from becoming critical, which is what airlines attempt to do.

They talk earlier about defense in depth, so it's obvious that they're not oblivious to the need for redundant safety measures:

The underlying article was discussed on HN three days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34468212
Once on a flight headed west I happened to look out the window and just then another plane flew beneath the plane I was on headed north-ish and quickly off into the distance. I remember thinking two things: 1. It was far away from us so quickly it kind of shocked me, although it makes perfect sense of course. 2. I felt like i got a really good view of it. It didn’t look far away at all altitude-wise as it passed beneath the plane I was on.

I’ve always wondered how normal this is to cross paths with other planes that closely. I’ve seen other planes way off in the distance before but never that close.

So I sell to other producers.

Sometimes big ones.

They want to sell our information, and nothing really changes for the consumer. If I connect my dishwasher to the wifi, what does that offer me? More advertising? I don't want that. Sign up for an account? To do what exactly? Tweet when I turn it on?

When there's a problem, it still doesn't diagnose it for me. I still have to look up some obscure E004 error code that may or may not be in their manual.

I have a dryer that gives me a "CARES" alert every 6 months. It just wants to be run in a 'cleaning' cycle - but the manual doesn't tell you how! Presumably so their consumers can call them for support every time it happens. I don't know.

I'll never connect an appliance to the network because I know it doesn't need that to function. I don't get any practical benefits from it, aside from being data-mined!

All those tools (checklists, redundancies, etc) exist to increase the reliability rate. And to stop the occasional problem (ground crew forgets to refuel plane) from turning into a disaster[1].

I might be overly generous, but thats my read of the author's intent. That just like in the airline industry, we have tools to stop occasional problems from turning into disasters. Things like:

- Deployment scripts instead of manual processes

- Dependency auditing (ideally automated)

- Automatic OS-level security updates

- Memory-safe languages (Go, Rust, Java) instead of C/C++

- Defence-in-depth (firewalls, host security, etc)

- Sandboxing (OpenBSD's pledge, Linux's seccomp, Deno's capabilities, etc)

Just like checklists in the aeroplane industry, these approaches require active effort. We don't get secure software if nobody cares enough to make it a priority.

Modula-2 was definitely a niche language. Back in the late 1980s I wrote an add-on to a commercial Modula-2 library that earned me a few bucks. Literally, a few bucks. I used Logitech's Modula-2 compiler, which I don't remember being slow, but Turbo C and Turbo Pascal were far more popular, likely because of their fast compilation speed.
I created kalendme.com for this exact reason. Keeping it simple, clean branding and simple pricing for $4 per user per month also with a full API. I’m a solo founder but with a solid B2B deal powering a YC telemedicine company’s scheduling.

What you can use it on does deteriorate though, since tons of new apps require iOS 14 or 15 to even run, and if there is an app with an iOS 12 version, it might just be out-of-date with the remote UI. I suppose that, if your use case for a phone is running the apps and websites of "today", then you must upgrade at least somewhat regularly.
I’m feeling old remembering reading this at the time and being glad that it was getting pointedly directed to certain large vendors.

I think the key part of “penetrate and patch” is rejecting the idea that you can hire a tester, patch a couple of holes, and otherwise not change anything. It’s the difference between being _shocked_ that your C++ has another memory safety issue after someone exploits it or using tools like Rust, sandboxes, static analysis, etc. to avoid having an exploitable vulnerability in the first place.

The major confound here is that a lot of companies realized there aren’t actually many penalties for releasing unsafe software, and decided that throwing bodies at patching was cheaper. I’m reminded of how many antivirus programs had basically 90s-level C code running with system privileges because the owners decided it’d cost too much to rewrite it until Tavis Ormandy started fuzzing them. I doubt many customers switched despite clear evidence that those vendors had serious deficiencies in their development processes.
> suspect a lot of their internal dev teams think they're adding value

They know they're not. Developers aren't stupid.
A reminder that a big part of the subtext of this piece is a reactionary movement against vulnerability research that Ranum was at the vanguard of. Along with Schneier, Ranum spent a lot of energy railing against people who found and exploited vulnerabilities (as you can see from items #2, #3, and #4). It hasn't aged well.

I'm not sure there's anything true on this list that is, in 2023, interesting; maybe you could argue they were in 2005.

The irony is, Ranum went on to work at Tenable, which is itself a firm that violates most of these tenets.
It has nothing to do with 'capitalism', in case you think the alternative is socialism where everything will be perfect (you'll be lucky to get any service at all when salary is not tied to customer satisfaction, as Russians used to their country's culture found to their pleasant surprise when they crowded up at the first McDonald's just before the USSR broke up).
And nothing prevents 'workers' from pooling their resources to run a business of their own as a cooperative and split the profits..as well as the losses.

Australia has some of the highest minimum wages in the world (with its own negative effect on small business owners) and you pay exactly the sum total of what you ordered on the menu as all prices are quoted inclusive of applicable taxes. Tipping is your prerogative if you feel the service was exemplary.

The US needs to get rid of the idea that it is the customer's responsibility to pay servers' wages over and above what they're already paying for the food.

> the company being vaporized is always a risk of shorting

why is that a risk tho? If you shorted something, the money is already in your hands (aka, you "sell" short presumably, where you make a buck selling it now, and have to put up cash in the future to make the short whole).

If in the future, the company vaporized, then wouldn't you no longer owe the shorted stock?
I love how all the W2s be fighting against themselves as though they aren't all in the same position. Yes, there's a big difference between $300k and $30k. It doesn't feel quite so big, though, when one medical bill can bankrupt you, regardless. Or you're living paycheck to paycheck because school cost you $150k (plus interest). We all have a lot more in common than not. Hard is hard and people matter. Those laid off got a bad deal, period, because it has less to do with actual "merit" and more to do with at-will is a bad deal.

> Sorting a “Big List” of epics doesn’t seem like the right way .. The first problem is that you’re sorting things that are incomparable .. The second problem is that the resulting decision is unsatisfying to [all] stakeholders .. The third problem is that The Big List conflates the idea of “prioritization”—what is most important—with “work-planning”—which is the order that specific work will be executed ... The solution is to prioritize items in separate, actually-comparable streams ... Don't forget to schedule rocks, then pebbles, then sand. That’s an even more primary principle for work-planning. Separate prioritization streams help identify which rocks and pebbles should be scheduled in the first place.

An advantage I found of signal having SMS support just a few days ago was when I met a new person and went to text them to confirm the numbers. I texted him, he texted back, and as it happened we both have Signal, so it was encrypted. If/when Signal removes SMS support, this sort of automatic, frictionless, natural discovery will not happen. Less people will use encrypted messaging because it relies on more people caring about encrypted messaging. Not going to happen, unfortunately, because nobody wants to be the weirdo who asks to use a special app.

Here’s a fun one to try next time you use UberEats.

Say your food is $12, and with delivery + fees it comes to $20.

The first “tip %” screen is based on the $20 figure. So 20% would be $4 extra.

If you decline that, you still have the option to tip before/after your food arrives. However, you’ll notice now the percentages reflect the pre-fees figure. So the 20% tip is now only $2.40.
The statement that a JIT is itself unsafe is tantamount really to saying that “compilers are unsafe” or even “interpreters are unsafe”. All a JIT really is is a way to execute code.

As an example, the Rust compiler has some [60+ open unsoundness bugs](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/I-unsound), meaning that there are many, many ways that a sequence of ostensibly safe code could be compiled into an unsafe executable (i.e. one which exhibits an unsafe behaviour like a double free). If you allowed malicious users to run Rust code on your machine, even without unsafe features and a limited standard library (as the case with JS in the browser), they could take advantage of these compiler bugs to escape Rust’s safety guarantees and whatever protections you put in place. And these bugs exist even though Rust itself is a safe language, and even though much of the Rust compiler is itself written in a safe language.

Not entirely sure why people are downvoting your perspective. There are at least two object lineages for Pascal: one leading to Oberon and the other to Delphi.

Both to semi-obscurity, but there is a lot to like in the Pascal language family in my opinion. Personally I find the syntax to be simple and attractive. Even though I spend a lot of time writing C-style languages, I don't have any trouble reading Pascal-style syntax.

My complaints about Ada and VHDL, which seem to have Pascal-inspired syntax, are they they feel a bit verbose compared to C++ and Verilog. On the other hand, Ada supports concurrency and memory safety, and has packages for dimensional analysis of physical units, and VHDL supports pluggable implementations.

Not really? A cgo wrapper for SQLite is by far the most popular way to use SQLite in Go and it works great.

But I think it’s a major design error to use FFI for a thin client library. You’re bringing in a whole other network stack for what should be some simple serialisation/deserialisation. Plus even if you were, say, linking against libmysql you’d still have a bunch of wrapper code to make it a nice API in whatever the host language may be. Not worth it.

There are several smoking guns. The disabled transponder right at ATC handoff. The high-skill turn. The special flight path that skirts several jurisdictions, then blends with other traffic. The final turn off that path to somewhere far away. Lack of fuel being what ended the flight.
