Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the name of a product.

Geerling supports a massive collection of Ansible playbooks, which goes pretty far beyond anybody’s personal use of Linux and would explain why this is a bigger deal than you or I ditching support for a distro.
I run a very small public company, and can say from first hand experience it would be extremely difficult to do something like this let alone do it and not get caught.

All emails and code changes are up for discovery and I don’t work with individual contributors directly so I’m not even sure how I would be able to give an instruction like this without many people wondering what was up.

In the early days sure, I could go ask X person to access things directly but after a couple hundred people it doesn’t work that way. Think about an org of hundreds of thousands with the most strict compliance rules in existence.

And doing something willful here would be jail time so why would someone already wealthy risk this? Even in a corrupt system people balance risk reward. A fine for the bank, fine, but life ruined forever stretches credulity given the limited upside.
I’ll do a change in Kiwi edition 116 to make it selectable in the UI (it’s almost a full rewrite of Kiwi and it will go out in about 10 days).

Most likely to add a setting to make it optional.

The main issue we had was with search partners, if we allow adblocking by default, then search engines still pay for the request, and this means… we pay. And by we, I mean “I” pay :)

One solution that some competitors found is to integrate Adblock Plus (when you develop a browser they pay you for that) or AdGuard and let them do the whitelist (so in appearance the blame is on them, but I am fine to take the blame myself).

Some browsers don’t allow external adblockers so they don’t have this issue at all; you can’t block their ads anyway (not 100% sure but I think Google, DuckDuckGo, Brave, etc are like this).

Yandex who was the pioneer of Chromium extensions on mobile (before Kiwi) has similar mechanisms, except they fully block the extension, instead of whitelisting it on certain URLs.

It’s currently possible to go around the whitelist, just by loading manually an extension.

And yes it’s logic that Google Chrome doesn’t block Google search ads by default unless you load a workaround.

The same that Kiwi doesn’t block Microsoft search ads when our main funding is Microsoft Bing, and to be fair, getting funded by search is the cleanest business model a browser can have.

In general, I would suggest that conversions to non-LISP languages (and that includes things like Ruby because people say "Ruby is my favorite LISP") makes pedagogical goals of teaching the theory difficult.

When I took my intro class in college, it was taught in Pascal. I had already been programming pascal (as taught by a chemist) in high school for a year or so. The first assignment which was Hello World I didn't even need to wake up in lectures for.

The second assignment... I didn't do quite so well. I had been using global variables and playing fast and loose with scope and passing variable parameters into procedures rather than using a function.

The thing was I already "knew" pascal and I had to unlearn what I knew before I could learn how to write pascal properly.

LISP (and Scheme and Clojure) work well in part because it always forces you to learn new concepts rather than having to unlearn what you did as a hobbiest before taking the class. The LISP family is unlikely to have been the choice language of a high schooler.

When I took an AI class taught in LISP a few years later, the TA sent a joke email about how they had broken into some top secret code only to find it was all written in LISP. Due to the constraints of the mail system there they could only send the last {some number} characters.

So, so true. As a corollary, one of the best ways of becoming an 10X (or whatever N-X :) developer, is learning to gather and refine requirements. Lots of that is digging into the domain to see how things are supposed to work and working with people to understand how they need things to work. It's rarely as simple as just asking people, you need to be able to go back and forth and help them help you understand.

But yeah, if you can identify and fix potential problems at the requirements phase, you'll save yourself (everybody, really) much future pain.

In the TV Show "I Love Lucy", there's an episode called "Lucy Goes to the Hospital" which aired January 19, 1953. It depicts the father-to-be waiting in the hospital waiting room while Lucy gives birth to their son. The waiting room permits smoking and Lucy's husband smokes a cigarette nervously while waiting.

It explains what will you get and at what price. It does not explain "how Integers and Floats work". They want you to buy the zine, which is what they are advertising.

Good for them. Why do you think this makes it not an ad?
I agree, but I don’t think it makes as much sense for the time scale of the ISS since IMO by the time asteroid mining is successful, the ISS will be towards the end of its life. I think this is something that would be more worth putting in the general mission plan of an ISS successor or Gateway.

Sharing a meal is a strong bonding ritual.

I read long time ago a study of families who eat together and those who dont.

Families who share meals have higher cohesion and better relations.

Its important to consider where those traditions came from and maybe why they came about.

There also is a mobile app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grash.cmms
More companies than we know use this as a tactic. Even though many apps have millions of users, many of them create an account and then never log in again. The companies also provide promotional incentives to employees that run accounts to post and make sites look livelier and more communal than they truly are.

App trustworthiness is at an all time low if you ask me. It's like each store you walk in to is a scam operation out to get money for returning the littlest amount of value back. There is no more organic or honest growth, even users on platforms are faking their statistics too... This entire ecosystem will eventually end up eating itself in my opinion.

Because they don't see technical debt as a bad thing. Go back to the original pitch for technical debt by Ward Cunningham. He was working for a finance company and used the debt metaphor to advocate in favor of "borrowing against the future" when implementing new code. The idea was that you could use the latest stuff without reinventing everything. Like mortgage payments, the reinvention could happen over time, in increments, until it's "paid off". The problem is that nowadays, especially in finance, you're dealing with people who are used to over leveraging everything. To them, the idea is to pile on debt until it becomes unmanageable: and then sell. Or go into Chapter 11.
I have brought this up in another comment, but my experience in the VC world is that it operates too heavily based on 4 types of "trust":

1) Institutional trust (Stanford, Harvard, MIT, "ex-FAANG", "ex-McKinsey", etc.),
2) Social trust (someone you know that has already established one of the three other kinds of trust),
3) Serial trust ("3-exits", "former CEO/CTO/VP of..."), and
4) Transitive trust ("Sequoia invested in X; I trust Sequoia; therefore, I should invest in X")

In many cases, this trust makes perfect sense. But it seems that in more than a handful of high profile cases, these types of investments based on trust has superseded basic due diligence, skepticism, and common sense.
This is late but I don't think "push/pull" is very clear terminology here, and confuses things a lot. The difference rather is that VPNs/TOR are ISPs, or more generally they're Common Carriers. They don't host content, they don't discriminate, they just route traffic. So Section 230 or the DMCA doesn't even apply, just regular common carrier rules. They're not liable for what goes through them short of actual knowledge or defiance of a legitimate court order, but the nature of encryption means they won't generally have any way to know or technical means. They're just infrastructure. To get content off of a VPN or TOR, someone must go to some actual server that serves said content, whether it be on the general internet or a hidden service. It's that server and user that are the liable parties. There are some edge cases, and of course differences in law for other countries, but overall they're an established thing.

IPFS in contrast would be a CDN. It actually hosts content, that's the point, it's a massively distributed filesystem. I can see that creating new legal arguments separate from pure network infrastructure.
Anyone know what the US law says about stuff like this?

Even if it was a genuine mistake, if anything legal came up, does a court need to accept that the evidence is gone and that the data was probably guilt-free? (getting some obstruction of justice vibes that I had in the US in 2019.......)
That sounds like a case for configurable masking at the editor level, rather than for a new standard of project arrangement in the filesystem.
I can see that Ansible with its do-it-yourself-AST-in-YAML is more tedious to write and even debug :-P No wonder they have shorthand versions of their module calls, too.

Well, there was a time when making XML-related software would have been a driver of valuations of companies in a similar way, and engineers were asked by boards to "start doing XML".

I'm not even saying it's unmitigatedly a negative thing. When the question "What are we going to actually do with XML?" came up, many had good ideas, and useful tech investments started getting past boards that wouldn't otherwise have. -- So there was a lot of "collateral goodness".

But people also started ripping out databases and purpose-built DSLs from existing applications just so they could replace them with something XML-based.

As a way of making tech investments, it's weak. If it's 1999 and I'm asked to invest in a tech company that makes a damned good XML parser and nothing else, I'm well advised to not invest. And if I'm a CTO in a non-tech business asked to start replacing database servers with XML files, I'm well advised to not do it.

I use the Taylor series approximation.

Take your desired probability, say one-in-a-million

prob = 0.999999

And calculate the bitspace. In this case, 12 base-62 digits

space = 62 ** 12

Take the natural log of the probability, times -2, times the bitspace. The sqrt of that is approximately the number of items that can be shoved into the bitspace before there is a one-in-a-million chance of collision.

int(math.sqrt((-2 * math.log(prob)) * space))
--> 80327683

With 80 million items, the odds of a collision are still 10*6 to 1 against.
I do not disagree. Let me rephrase: I think it is much more important to discuss how much we want to spend to raise our children or how and how much we need to work, than discussing boys vs. girls.
Geerling is a big name in Red Hat. He’s responsible for most of the popular Ansible packages out there.
So some news site you read on gets hacked and they install malware that means when you move to another tab, it changes the tab to look like a log in screen for say, google, and when you go back, you log in. This has been seen in the wild, and it is very hard for a human to catch, we assume we had a tab open and log in. A password manager will refuse to do it because it isn't the right domain.

Yes, of course all of these kind of attacks can be avoided by "just don't do anything dangerous", but in the real world we are all flawed and mess up. No human can be perfect, and relying on never making a mistake makes you vulnerable. Anyone serious about security makes it hard to do the wrong thing.

Hardware security keys are an even better solution, but not every site supports them. Both is by far the best option.
> We think the issue might not be severe enough [...]

It might not? In other words, if a security vulnerability is reported, assume everything is actually fine until proven exploitable beyond any shadow of a doubt?

This is great stuff! To use this in Canada, we have a few extra requirements as well. Firstly, we have to separate our tax onto two lines, one for Federal tax (called GST) and one for Provincial tax (has a different name in each province) and we are also legally required to include our Federal and Provincial tax registration numbers on the same line as the amount of tax being charged.

Even trickier is that some line items could also be tax-exempt.

A config option such as the following would help for that:

--tax 0.05 "GST" --label="GST #12345679" \
--tax 0.09975 "QST" --label="QST #55592929"

And to handle items that are tax exempt, an item can have the:

--item ... --tax_exempt (or --tax_exempt="GST" in case it's only exempt from one of the sales taxes)
Your mental model is broken in that you seem to think the techs have independent models of what is and is not legal and will "legal fact check" the executives. In specific cases this may occur, but in general, if legal comes to a tech and says "we need to delete this", the tech will delete this. If you want to mess the tech around, you don't fire a guy and promote someone else and hire a private investigator to get blackmail on the database operator and hire the mafia to rough up the guy holding the backup tapes to make sure they get the message. You just tell the tech staff that legal says this has to happen. The tech staff does all sorts of things because legal tells them to, totally routine thing. This would not have stood out at all.

I mean, I live this personally. When legal tells me to delete or retain something, I don't go get a law degree, and then insist that they let me have all the details to come to my own independent opinion about whether or not we need to delete or retain something. That is every bit as nonfunctional as when I tell them that the task they're asking for will take three weeks and they go get a programming degree and then come over and learn the exact environment we are working in so they can verify that we are telling them the correct estimate.

Given the lack of any documented adverse health effects from soy-derived foods in the many cultures where it’s extremely widely used in cooking, my layman’s guess is that it’s to do with the extraction and processing of the soy bean oil. That can of course also apply to highly processed soy products, but I don’t reckon the average tofu or soy sauce enjoyer should be worried.

Not going to touch the hair on fire tone of this in general... but one thing worth mentioning is I believe the "freeloader" comment meant Rocky, Alma, Oracle and the likes are the freeloaders who are repackaging and RESELLING without contributing anything.

If you read between the lines in 2020, this was the next logical step coming. I think they should have done both changes back in 2020 and put a wider emphasis on the developer program with free subs, and removing pain in the ass subscription limitations which is why people want to use Cent/Rocky/Alma to begin with.

I'm the author of the notes but I'm not Jason Cohen, the speaker on whom the notes are based.

>Example: Server hosting" A few lines later... "Good Market: Not real-time

>A non-real time business is one where it’s not a disaster if your product is down for a few hours"

This is on me for summarizing poorly, but Cohen wasn't advocating server hosting as a good market. He explicitly said WPEngine was a counter-example because it was hard for them to do real-time support.

He mentioned server hosting as an example of a business where customers understand that you have ongoing costs, so it makes sense that you bill them as an ongoing basis, but he didn't say server hosting is a good market for bootstrappers.

>Later on it describes hosting, image editors, and time-tracking software as examples of "finished" businesses that don't need to worry about dealing with feature competition.

This still seems true to me. What's the objection to this point?

Pretty much all databases are "immutable". The logs contain every transaction ever made and most institutions save their logs. Also, backups of data are stored on tape and likely shipped somewhere for safekeeping.
Ya, I could not upvote this more. Honestly physical security is usually one of the biggest fail points you will see in security audits.
