The main thing is I would collapse most of the layers.

Something like DNS is necessary, but I'd use individually digitally signed records except for mdns, and if you couldn't reach upstream, you wouldn't ever just drop stuff out of the cache.

I'd get rid of certificates entirely though. Without any insecure DNS, you

I'd also change IP addresses to be longer, maybe even 256 bits. 48 would be reserved for identifying an ISP (And large ISPs would have different codes for different regions), 16 would be reserved for whatever the ISP wanted to do with them, 32 bits would mark a customer, 16 would be for a customer subnet, and the rest would be chosen by the device, based on the hash of a public key.

All communication would be secured at the IP level, if you have the right IP, it's all good, if you want to refresh your "certificate" you just get a new IP and tell DNS about it.

Since the last section of the address is enough to uniquely identify the device, you can move between providers while still keeping your cryptographic identity.

Which also means that any kind of decentralized DHT routing can work transparently, the first half of the address is just routing info you can ignore if you have a better route, like being in the same LAN.

DNS servers could also also let you look up the routing info just given the crypto ID of a node, so you don't need a true static IP.

You could also do the same lookup with a local broadcast, and then cache the result for later use, so your phone can find your IoT devices, and then access them on the go with the cached routing info, if DNS is down.

A special TLD could exist that's just the crypto ID in base64, that doesn't require any registration. You can't spam too many of them, because you can reliably IP identify customer numbers unlike with ipv6 which makes that rather hard.

The core hardware is actually very similar. Both use more or less the same STM32 SoC. The difference is that the Trezor comes pre-flashed in a sealed package designed not to be opened, while the SC4-HSM is designed to be flashed by the user, and the case is not sealed so it can easily be opened to inspect the hardware. So while I can't say it would be impossible, launching a supply chain attack against the SC4-HSM would be a lot harder to execute and conceal.
They replaced the whole microcontroller. Doubt that these checks could resolve this if they were sophisticated enough.

The same for me. My current car is a 2014 model, with 42k miles on it. I probably drive less than 2,000 miles a year. The car looks great, drives great, and has plenty of safety features.

Unless there's some life-changing event that requires me to get a larger vehicle, I plan to keep this car until it drops, or I do.

If people stop lending to the government and stop using the currency so that gov. can't print anymore, then that problem goes away.

Also, worth noting that all succesfully countries spend more than they take in. US, Canada, UK, France, especially Japan. They just structure it differently.

Put another way, in Japan, they don't print money to debauch the currency, they just borrow from retirees under weird terms that don't make sense.

Ultimately, the net quality of life will wash out the accounting, but the difference is if investments are made rationally be actors - and - the system 'believes' that it works and upholds it. Especially outside parties who continue to value the currency on some level.

Simply by 'losing the faith' of outside parties, everything can go downhill and break in ways that even our own economies would break if that happened - so sometimes it's hard to tell what's really happening.

For this reason, countries like Russia have to hoard gold, run surpluses, keep a fat current account, so that when the 'system loses trust' in a huge way aka 'sanctions' - they can stay alive without the need for international credit.

So this simplistic 'balance the books' approach isn't really it.

It's more like: 'everyone has to act responsibly and rationally and especially not be corrupt' - in the state, private sector, everywhere - including voters. This is a nuanced argument though. Not very populist.

REP MOVS had a horrifyingly high setup penalty for some Intel CPUs, to the point where an ordinary function call to a simple unoptimized c copy implementation would beat it on sizes shorter than kilobytes. IIRC the first P4 cpus (Northwood) were especially bad, with the implementation steadily improving from there.
The submission title appears to be editorialized; the word “persona” doesn’t appear in the original article, and it’s an odd choice, as it implies that Stallman’s statements and actions are a deliberate facade that’s separate from his true identity.

It's hard to do that over the long term. One of the advantages of having your own currency is that you can use it to manage the economy. During recessions a central bank can buy bonds from the government for pesos that they can use to prop up the economy in a downturn. When the currency is not your own then that's not possible so recessions are deeper and more painful. I suspect that's why argentina decided to depeg it to the dollar. They probably had a nasty recession that they hoped that by issuing more currency they could fix. But they could not do that while the peso was peg to the dollar.

The idea there is that on i386 doing memory copy by explicit optimized assembly loop is faster than using CPU instruction that does that. And then there are i386 implementations that can do that faster (eg. 80386 itself) that are deprecated by that.
I think a lot of people were increasingly on edge before the pandemic, and the isolation really didn't help them with their mental health.

It was still necessary from a disease control standpoint, and the USA didn't have the balls to crack down hard enough to do more than smear the waves out so our hospital systems didn't completely collapse. (E.G. New Zealand did a reasonable job of isolating properly, while China held the crack down too hard instead of crush the numbers, then loosen a little until things started to go back up and squeeze again.)

For Fukushima the evac zone was 20km around the plant. A similar scenario in the US would see a 50 miles (80km) radius evac zone recommended by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (at least the the time of it happening in Japan: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/mass-evacuations-... ).

I don't think I have ever heard of such large zones for other industrial disasters, the estimatated maps I've seen for Bhopal, one of the if not the worst industrial chemical disaster ever, had a radius for the gas spread of about 7km (and it killed a lot more people really quickly). It is of course annecdotal, but each disaster has its own circumstances: wind, water/soil contamination, etc. that impose different measures to take... but in general nuclear disasters have a much wider radius for the fallout, that's why the security/processes for it are way more demanding and generally successfully applied.

But the main point was that we can't discount these risks and their results (deaths) when a disaster happened, as rare as they are (thankfully). They are part of it, and counting these deaths is just honest, as I said other sources of energy in the course of their "normal" operation kill way more people and destroy our environment in the process. It's a no-brainer to choose nuclear power over them.
I haven't seen much correlation between the debt ceiling and inflation, so I would guess "not very high".
Lane assist is a product of the pervasive "what works in urban San Francisco/other coastal cities is the right solution for everyone" mentality. Unexpected obstacles are far from the worst of its problems on rural roads. Lane assist doesn't give a fig about the fully loaded dump truck coming around the inside of the curve at a relative speed of 100mph within inches of your door, because that situation just doesn't exist in urban environments. (You are supposed to be all over your white line in this case, in case it's not obvious). Conversely, headlight tech which matters much more in rural environments (oncoming headlights are too dazzling on dark roads, and your own headlights are too dim - current legal tech fails both ways simultaneously) is irrelevant in urban environments, so it is literally illegal to improve.
it's an illusion created by the polar plot. the most even distribution is in the first image. in a polar plot, two points that are eg 5degrees apart appear closer together in the center than they appear at the edge of the circle, so the center looks denser even though the angular distance of the points is the same
Interesting, I wonder if this is more like a reaction control system with discrete jets, or if it's more focused on boundary layer control (or some combination thereof). By strategically causing flow separation on wing elements at specific times, a little bit of air could have a huge effect on the aerodynamic forces on the vehicle. The bare metal on the leading and trailing edge surfaces of the wing make me thing the latter is included in the design.

Edit: yes, they're doing boundary layer control, just not in the way I thought. This article has a diagram: https://www.baesystems.com/en/article/magma-the-future-of-fl...

With all due respect to the late Dr. Lucas, the prize is the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel.

You’re right, that is a misquote. But what he actually wrote honestly wasn’t that much better.

The problem with a lot of these sorts things is intentionally making yourself blind to the emotional impact, pretending not to know, when some part of you does understand what you’re doing.

It’s all just plausible deniability. We get it quite clearly, we don’t need it explained to us.

This isn't a good-faith reading of the comment. Would most people give up the myriad of benefits of industrialization to reverse our impact on the climate?

I’m doing my part to keep those stats up with a 2015 electric, a 2005 gas, and a 1966 gas. Setting aside the ‘66 as a different category of car usage, the 2005 Honda is quite reliable and low maintenance. It’s bound to last another 10 unless rust gets it first, which seems 50/50 at this point.

Used cars are an incredible deal compared to brand new cars. I’m glad people love that new car smell and feel; otherwise I wouldn’t have any used cars to buy.
Also adopting asbestos were somewhat reasonable at that time (from thousands years ago to hundred year ago). Leaded gasoline was terrible from the beginning. They don't adopt ethanol for profit.

> Article alleges it is not external threats but corrupt political interests that drive ever higher US defense spending. But correlation is not causation and this link is unsupported,

I think the charge that it's an unsupported thesis is itself unsupported, when that thesis is advanced by military generals and DoD insiders as a result of their experience or analysis.

> especially when no analysis of the un/reality of the external threat is offered

The specifics of the external threat don't change the dynamic of a threat being fabricated or exaggerated to boost spending.

> There is some low-hanging fruit here around Iraq so not bringing that in leads me to question the quality of this article.

It could be a word count thing. But I guess the article was quality enough to require a careful and determined rebuttal from yourself. Although it seems you would be unlikely to accept the article's thesis if you felt it was defending China, so I think your questioning the quality of the article would be something we could assume would happen without question. Making it not an actual signal of quality but rather of your ideology

> It is harder to make that case with the Cold War or the PRC vs its South China Sea neighbors so perhaps that is why this aspect of their argument was not pursued.

But what is the real threat presented by China today, or by the USSR before? If it's such a hard case to make for the non-threat thesis, I respectfully request you give the easy argument for its antithesis. Just 1 sentence will do, unless it's too much to ask?
Thanks! We've changed to that from https://superfund.ncsu.edu/news/3831/.
Makefiles are great for what they were made for. Compiling a binary? You should consider using Make.

I get frustrated when I start seeing tests and run commands hidden behind a make task. An example I saw recently was using a makefile to run docker compose. Simple enough, but it used a non-standard docker compose file, so it required the -f flag for every invocation. Which is fine since that’s handled for you by the makefile. Then it had docker compose run commands to invoke pytests. One key feature of running tests is passing arguments to limit test runs to specific packages/files/functions- but of course passing arguments down to a command isn’t supported by Make. All very convoluted and not the best tool for the job IMO. A simple bash script with “$@“ to pass my args to pytest is a lot more straightforward and allows pytest features to be used without needing to do anything extra.
No but in this case it’s seemingly dogmatic stuff, like hey cook meat in different pans from the pans used for vegetarians, but then eat at restaurants where you couldn’t obviously enforce that.

But yes there is always plenty of inconsistency.

Don't have much to add - not knowledgeable enough in this area.

This quote was interesting though; makes one wonder if there's a list of chips vulnerable to 'side-channel attacks due to control flow or memory access patterns':

"The Security Extensions for the Armv8-M architecture do not claim to protect against side-channel attacks due to control flow or memory access patterns. Indeed, such attacks are not specific to the Armv8-M architecture; they may apply to any code with secret-dependent control flow or memory access patterns," argued Arm.
