"I quit infosec and I couldn't be happier" is how I'd have written it.

Thanks for the good-read!
Thanks.

The first one is French dubbed in russian. If you speak russian, I would recommend it as it as the slides clearly in view.

However, the second one, in English doesn't show most of the slides, and they are really necessary to get the full picture. However, it's a playlist, and there are better ones in there.

If you don't mind, I will update my comment to include one of them.
Indeed, as it should be. You should always ask the user when you collect their data, for each transaction. If your software then is annoying as it performs, that's on you as the developer. Fix your processes.

Your test harness should cover edge cases. Invest in that, versus the externalized cost of collecting telemetry.

Your users are not your labrats. Quit pushing your testing costs on to them.
I like this framing. It's not that aimless, excited newbies can ONLY make small things for their own use. It's just that doing so makes an important and easy-to-mess-up part of the process (i.e. collecting and synthesizing end user requirements and feedback) nearly automatic. But framing it this way suggests a natural progression to eventually making things for other people too.

It’s a racist joke posing as an ethical dilemma.
If your prone to loose you're temper over minor linguistic gaffes, supposably the best advise is too just kick back and have an expresso.
It might've been in the spirit of the game, though. Keep in mind that the release was 10 years ago. Nowadays, Naughty Dog might have been more explicit with that story line. Also, I remember some kind of backlash from TLOU 2, were some people weren't happy with the depiction of Abby.
China has more than enough nukes to end the US in any meaningful way. A study from the 1950s Britain concluded that hitting 5-10 coastal cities -- which also have most of the population and most of the shipping -- would effectively end the economy and annihilate the population. Most of China's population would be vaporized in retaliation; most of the US population would just starve to death.

There has been a lot of work in alternative massive destruction techniques.

Detonate a few nukes off the coast and cause a tsunami -- how's missile defense going to stop that? Satellite weapons -- "rods from god" -- are probably a thing to some degree. Or as mentioned, balloons.

And who needs nukes when $50 worth of rail road derailing tools can cause a multi-million dollar catastrophe that will poison an entire water table?
Unfortunately, no way to change the URL of the post. Only admins can do this.
Seneca was of a similar opinion:

It would be a lengthy business to mention all the different people who have spent their lives engaged in chess-playing or exercise with ball or the practice of roasting their bodies in the sun. They are not unoccupied when their pleasure form such a busy occupation. No one will doubt that those men are energetic triflers who devote their hours to the study of useless literature - On the Shortness of Life
You failed to grasp the context of my comment. Do you really think I would advocate for a total lack of privacy? Of course it’s a balancing act.

The immediate example has to do with supplying identifying information in order to purchase online goods. I view it as the regulations that enable the data collection are in place to empower the consumer. Obviously, if we could keep the good parts (good return processes, immediate credit return for fraudulent transactions, etc.) I would prefer more privacy to less. It’s just not possible in today’s technological climate.
I've recently started using Taichi (https://taichi-lang.org/) for numerical codes and the fact it doesn't try to trick you into thinking it's numpy is a nice "feature". ;)
Tim Ferriss interview with him. It came from within, maybe I didn't explain myself clearly.
Feels like a central issue. I find a lot to agree with here, and a lot to agree with in the comment you're responding to.
8x80G A100 pod capable of running GPT-3 could reasonably be redesigned to fit into a regular car chassis. It would even consume much less energy than the actual driving (a 5-10 kW vs 30+kW).
I don't think this is always true. When I get an error message or some sort of error while using a program on my private PC I don't mind sending the error code and telemetry data to the devs, because it hopefully helps them to find and hopefully fix errors in the software I am using and therefore is a win-win situation in my opinion at least.
There was a book published by Sun Micro about Unix Games, perhaps in the mid or late 1990s. It had a chapter on a flight simulator game with simple 3D graphics. Does anyone have a link to more information about such a game.
Yup, it's called a weapon. We've been doing it for a VERY long time. There are some people out there that would very much like to turn you into a corpse or a slave. If you don't want to be a corpse or a slave, along with your family and friends, then you will need them.

If you can find a world where you don't need access to Killing Machines, please let me know because I would very much like to live there.

What does the science say about the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic?
Yes. You always want to be part of a profit center, where (directly or indirectly) there is revenue associated with what you do, rather than being part of a cost center where you are just an expense for the company.
That sounds like the early seasons of The Walking Dead. It was more a thought-exercise about what your moral lines would be if put in that situation, and exploring inter-personal conflict. Then it became... who f'ing knows what to call that.
While you’re generally correct it’s important to note that the Fair Housing Act’s discrimination provisions don’t apply to all housing so it is actually sometimes legal to discriminate based on familial status. It’s probably not relevant here because we’re talking apartments it seems (although a 4BR is a huge apartment).
The industralization of the Soviet Union was done at the cost of the massive hunger, the murders of Great Purge and making disturbance to the neighbor contries (I am talking about pre 1939 now, WW2 soviet atrocities are not even scratched here), resulting in millions of deaths, and bringing misery to generations, in some areas until today.
I think a possible simple answer here is that there were bigger videogame nerds on set than pen nerds.
There have been some changes from the game that have been quite "large," notably around the cordyceps virus and how it sort of behaves. But I think they've all been very very good changes that I wish were actually in the game.

They've expanded the story of several characters, notably Bill and Frank. Their story in the game is similar, but not told really, since the game follows Joel and Ellie from their perspective, which means we don't get to see the story from Bill or Frank's perspective. So, the show has really allowed more of the story to be told because they can switch perspectives.

As a huge fan of the game, the show has been absolutely amazing to watch and I've been excited for every single episode so far. It's just all around great. I wish there was more of the show, it's just something I want more of.

If you like this type of thing, check out the podcast for the show, there's an HBO podcast hosted by Troy Baker (voice of Joel in the game, and a character in the next episode). It goes into a lot of the decision making they had to make to change the way they tell the story. Fascinating listen.

I don't think anyone can answer that concretely, we've never had any virus at that concentration. In general, yes, stomach acid will neutralize most viruses (stomach viruses require specialized and fascinating adaptations to survive), but when you're talking about consuming by the quadrillions or quintillions (or more) particles that only need on the order of several dozens to get lucky and infect you, only a few of them need a lucky journey to get you. The process of swallowing will still end up with them in your throat, some in your mucus membranes in your mouth, nose, and probably your entire sinus system, etc. I wouldn't take that bet. Rates of success we would normally call "non-infectious" would get you in this case.
They thought they were still tough. We can make our own assessments, and we can hack or bribe their officials to get their take -- but if they think they're hot shit, what are we to expect?

And it's clear that they did indeed think they were hot shit: their planning, and eventual failures, reflected that.

> I’ve seen are on properties with clear flaws (e.g. poor location, bad floor plan, etc.)

How do you determine these?
That is such a rabbit hole! A book I can recommend is "The Art of the Japanese Sword" by Leon and Hiroku Kapp. Also a great resource if you want to go into knife / blade making yourself.

What is really interesting so, is the metallurgy behind that. Basically, Japanese blacksmith had to work around the fact that all they had was basically crappy ore deposits with loads of unwanted impurities. And they did so masterfully.

Modern day mono-steel is ahead of whatever historical swordsmiths had, it is almost ridiculous. One of the greatest benefits, besides having clearly defined and refined properties regardless of batch, is how easy heat treatment is. Those standardized properties mean what ever part one makes behaves the same way when heat treated at a certain temperature. And that temperature is surprisingly easy to control, guessing the right temperature was what kind of made sword making a black art so to say.

EDIT: Also look up Peter Johnsson, he has great content on the geometry and dimensions of European swords. His swords, from Viking style all the way to renaissance ear ones, are pieces of art. He is also really accessible, I just shot him a mail with questions regarding heat treatment of blades for a yet to start project, and the back and forth was really, really helpful.
Is there any practice-oriented list of actions to undertake?

The article has some details, e.g the 10 minimum measures ( https://nis2directive.eu/nis2-requirements/ ) but I'm not too happy with them.

On the good side, the main concrete thing I see in that list is MFA.

But all the other things in there seem ways to keep some consultants busy writing vague documents, not real steps forward to a secure organizations.

Q-CAD seems to be GPLv3, so the open source version could take the changes as long as they comply with the license. They cannot take features from the commercial version. A CLA doesn’t change that either way. LibreCAD can’t contribute back unless they accept the CLA.

Or is the issue that the fork diverged and the work from the commercially supported version is progressing faster than the LibreCAD fork?
"He's lost himself in the fake popularity of being a social media celebrity. He started believing that having 100 million followers on a web site really means that a continent's worth of people adore you."

That seems to happen to almost all people who are popular on social media and Youtube. They have millions of loyal followers and it really gets to their head. The same happened to Jordan Peterson. He used to have good insights on psychology but lately he seems to believe he has perfect wisdom on everything and he has tons of people who tell him that.

As far as Musk goes, for me the breaking point was the Thai cave situation where he tried (and succeeded) to suck up attention with their submarine prototype although nobody working on it knew anything about cave diving. Sheer arrogance and attention seeking.

The crates.io index actually is a GitHub repository, so I think a GitHub outage that affected repositories (not just packages) could break Cargo. Only metadata is stored there, though, not the actual crates. I'm not 100% sure why it works like this; there seems to be a plan to change things soon so that Cargo running on users' machines doesn't talk directly to GitHub by default (https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2023/01/30/cargo-spar...), though the GitHub repo would still be the source of truth.

crates.io also uses GitHub as an OAuth provider (and it's currently the only one offered), so if that broke then people wouldn't be able to publish crates, though downloading existing ones would presumably still work since you don't have to log in to do that.
You are getting down voted. I'll explain.

The name is GitHub Packages. It's singular. The use of "is" is correct here. GitHub uses "is" in similar circumstances as well.

T-Mobile rolled out 5g here in Central Florida and its laughable. They are completely overwhelmed with all the people moving to here. I used to have Mint mobile since it was cheap and I buy my phones outright, but since its on low priority network its basically unusable now. I got stuck in dead stopped traffic a month ago on I4 and I could barely stream 360p YouTube with full signal.

LTE gets 40mbps max, and is very unstable. 5G just makes my phone hot as far as I can tell, occasionally I find one spot where it gets 500-800mbps...

"To quit" is an irregular verb in English, the past tense is just quit instead of quitted. So "I quit" can be either present or past tense, but from context it would be clear that "I quit infosec" is past tense.

Precise thought patterns, acronyms, X seconds per move... This seems like a terrible, robotic way to play chess, at least when it comes to having fun. I've played in excess of 100k games on lichess (mostly 3 minutes, some 5 minute and bullet too, no increments) with my ELO rating being ~2100 and I don't consciously do any of these (whether these or approximations of such still take place unconsciously is a different matter).

In fact, I play purely by feel, looking at the board until a move "feels right". Similarly for time management, I try not to spend more time than my opponent at all times. If my opponent plays faster than me, I speed up. If my opponent is slower, I slow down but try to maintain a slight time advantage.

This translates to the game never feeling like manual mental labor. Instead, it's moves and decisions seemingly streaming out of me without conscious control, almost like a superpower I never knew I had. It feels great and is a lot of fun.
I disagree. For example, Jetbrains asked me nicely if they can enable telemetry for their IDEs. So I did. Windows didn’t ask. So I use O&O ShutUp to make it stop.
How would that work for a developer?
Hi, it's the author here.

> archaeologists say it "isn't possible to do X with Y"

Do they?

Many people use "everyone said X was impossible, but I found out how to do X!" as a framing device to tell their story, but whenever I investigate one of these I generally find that it isn't strictly, err, true. People weren't saying "X is impossible" so much as "we think tribe T didn't know how to do X so this artifact was probably imported" or something similarly hedged. The new information is genuine, but the narrative is just storytelling.

I have personally given up on finding a co-founder randomly through these match sites. Everyone has their own agenda and you cannot start a company with strangers. I know some people succeed with these platforms but for me, it just hasn't worked. May be I haven't put in enough effort. But the idea of starting a company with a stranger or someone you just met seems crazy.

Look into your own network first. I know it is not always easy if most of your network is not entrepreneurial but you never know. I hired someone in my team out of a corporate job who used to be my co-worker 10 years ago. He is not co-founder but an excellent team member for our small company.

If not your network, I truly believe that it will be accidental. It could be someone you may work with and realize that they are lot more than just a co-worker/team member. I truly believe it has to be accidental.

True co-founders have to know each other well especially how they behave when shit hits the fan and shit WILL hit the fan if you are working on a serious company.
Feelings Are the Source of Consciousness
Warning, there are a lot more zombies in the game than the show (still not like an insane number, just more). It's different in a way really. The stakes in the game are lower, you can heal yourself and all that, so having a bunch of zombies isn't really death. You can also start at a checkpoint if you die. But in the show the characters can't just heal, and the stakes are low if they can just fight them off easily and or evade them. So by making the zombies scarcer in some ways in the show, but they make those encounters extremely deadly in the show to advance the story. They play a role to telling the story, but are not the point of the story.

Also, the game is an action game, so, naturally, zombies are more plentiful or it wouldn't really be an action game so much.

It's a shifting target though.

Let's take your example of a program with a lot of I/O. A straightforward way to optimize that is to find a way to reduce the number of I/O operations you do.

And once you do that, the bottleneck shifts. You're spending less time in I/O, both in an absolute sense and relative sense. So you might run into a new non-I/O new bottleneck that was just drowned out in the noise before. So you optimize that ...

And sometimes this goes on for many iteration cycles and you end up with a 100-1000x performance improvement.
