For the FBI to spy on elected officials and public figures, and use their secrets to blackmail them into doing what the FBI wants, is more than a realistic concern: it's a historical fact that government power-brokers ran that kind of racket on a large scale, spanning decades. Hoover's technical capabilities were a fraction of the digital era's. These are incredibly dangerous powers to have concentrated in one place.
Yep, article spinners were the thing as early as 2010, probably earlier. Even more surprising that they are back in search results as I remember them being absent for a while.
MLS and blog author here. I've been a proponent of deniability within the MLS WG and there have been quite a few online and offline discussion about it. Personal opinions aside, deniability remains a divisive property. Some people think it is important, many people do not care about it, and a few even think it is harmful. That sets it apart from properties like say confidentiality that is far more appealing to most people. It also remains largely theoretical, in that the lack of deniability hasn't had tangible negative consequences so far (the DKIM case aside, but that doesn't translate 1:1 to messaging).
Deniability is also used as a colloquial term, when there is much more nuance to it (what exactly is deniable? what capabilities does the attacker have? etc.). Finally, deniability in protocols like Signal clearly have limitations and can be circumvented with moderate effort as explained in [1]. So the reason why deniability didn't make it into core MLS is rather banal: there was not enough traction.

That being said, there has been a low key effort to come up with an extension to MLS to introduce some notion of deniability. It is not published yet, but I will probably talk more about it at the upcoming MLS session at IETF117.

Moving on because webpack is bad and turbo repo is alpha, so yes Vite is the best of the bunch right now. But you asked what they were trying to do. Most codebases are still webpack, and only some new ones are using Vite. Significantly upgrading to a drop in webpack replacement, with performance and usability of Vite is more ideal, and that’s what they’re trying to do. Just migrate to Vite is like a version upgrade without backwards compatibility.

I don't know why you think we would take OpenGL over Vulkan, the former is orders of magnitude worse than the latter in every respect except for hardware compatibility. I work in games, specifically doing engine development. For some metrics, our last game has sold ~400k copies on Steam + GOG over its 7 year lifetime. I am the only programmer currently in a codebase that has some hundreds of thousands of lines of highly idiosyncratic C++ code that uses OpenGL. I also am our only form of tech support with any ability to actually fix technical issues. "without being extremely complex" what an absurd statement.

I use the technology stack I do as a means to an end, and that end is not because I couldn't make a computer do something without the tower of shit I've got living on my desk. It's because I have to make money to live, and that means selling software to other people, so it should probably run on their computers. Most of the thinking that goes into my job isn't mathematics or theory. It's wrangling the absolute clusterfuck of a technology stack that consumers buy up by the millions and trying to hammer some kind of reason into it, ensuring that all the hundreds of moving parts of this massively complicated product run well on not just the computers of spoiled first worlders who think a 2060 is "low end", but on the tens of thousands of computers that run our games which are around 10 years old.

I would much rather live in an ivory tower and do everything from scratch and not have to think about making sure Ivan from Vladivostok isn't going to be shitting up the Steam forum because MSVC decided /O2 means "please reinterpret this code to run 10x slower than it did in your last minor version senpai" or the dozens of esoteric GPU issues I've had to solve over the years. Please. I would much rather be hand-rolling 3D rotation matrices than this shit.

This is a very concise description of a lot of modern manufacturing.

I just took apart a bunch of stuff on a VW van: the bus itself was nominally manufactured in Poland. According to some of the labels the guts of the servo that I took apart and repaired was made in Switzerland. But the servo itself was made in Germany. When you look at the guts parts of it were made in China, parts in Japan and probably some parts in Switzerland but it's unclear which those would be.

The parts of that car have collectively already traveled more than the car ever will by the time it gets delivered to the customer (in the Netherlands).

I feel like certain dramas are just more forgiving. Like even if the prose is bad and the characters are flat in a sci-fi or fantasy novel, the concept of the world being explored can still be interesting. I love classic SciFi but I don’t go to it for the rich character development.

Meanwhile, drama relies much more on prose and character. If that fails, the central concept rarely backs it up.
Nothing changes much, you start looking for inner peace initially, get away from noise. The experience now lives with you as far as you are alive. A huge mark on your brain which you revisit each time you are about to make a new decision. If you become sick from rushing to create some value, you slow down, get more consistent, move slow and safe. Otherwise you keep same speed until you hit a wall, then the damage will be much higher compare to the previous ones.

That sounds great, but are you sure that there won't be legions of LLMs generating SEO spam and advertisement hell in warfare with the LLMs that do search?

Just as an aside: Sci-fi seems to have one superintelligence (one Skynet) fighting humankind. If superintelligence emerges, I think it's likely that we'll have thousands, millions, or billions of superintelligences fighting each other, each with its own agenda.

Because I didn't catch the edit:

>Your hypothesis seems to be that it spread from lab distantly because of incubation time, then stopped spreading distantly once it reached the market? That does not make sense.

It's not my hypothesis, I'm just pointing out the evidence is circumstantial and the language used by virologists is precisely engineered to lump together strong evidence that proves one thing (that the virus was zoonotic in origin) with weak evidence they want to claim proves another thing (that it couldn't have been a lab leak). It's dishonest language and it drives me nuts, because people aren't sheep or idiots, can find the inconsistencies, and will further have their trust in institutions eroded.

This whole debacle reeks even more when you look at the timeline. These claims were coming out before even that circumstantial evidence was available, when this really truly was just a best guess because it's how we think the last SARS operated.

My personal opinion is that:

1) We'll never have any better evidence than what we have now (so we'll never have any good evidence, short of the Chinese govt being hacked)

2) It doesn't really matter because both are plausible and so our safety models should include both

3) The thing of real importance here isn't what is being debated, but rather how the debate itself was performed, and what it says about authority, institutions, honesty, and elitism in the scientific community.

The difference being that in two of the alternatives you list skill has a role to some non-trivial degree, while retail trading (not traditional long-term investing) is dependent almost 100% on pure luck. Even with traditional long-term investing luck plays a much larger role than it does for business, or any skill-based profession.

> I'd frame it as an imperfect attempt to ensure a long-term financial stability

I somehow seriously doubt raising retirement age by 2 years (from 62 to 64, life expectancy is 82) will "ensure a long-term financial stability". There are usually many other way to optimize the system, but macron chose exactly to take from people.
Republicans have led the FBI effectively since it was established. Even Democratic Presidents have appointed Republican heads of the FBI, though it's possible that there's been an acting head that was A Democrat.

10 cars filling up their tanks at an highway gas station is not uncommon, especially if you consider the cars waiting in lines. This may seem unfair but let me argue about that.

Filling up a gas tank and leaving takes about 5 minutes so even if you arrive there and you have to wait in a line it's not a big deal. If recharging an EV up to a reasonable level takes 15 minutes, either they 3x the number of stands or make customers unhappy and leave for the next station, if they can get there. If they can't, they are hostage of the physics of batteries and EVs and they'll have to wait.

So I think that each charging station will have more stands to recharge EVs than gas pumps now.

Yes, that's one way of looking at it. But the business will have a harder time to weather bad things happening that would require a larger capital investment.

Plenty of businesses should just stay small. This fascination with scale and growth is super unhealthy. But continuing a business that already exists is easier than starting one from scratch and building up reserves just in case something that you really need for your primary process breaks takes time. So time will tell whether it really was dead weight.
The cascading events that might lead to the end of organized nation-states in many parts of the world due to climate change look like a real possibility now.

Inline is an hit, doesn't mean it gets really expanded, that is why compilers have extensions for "I really mean it, inline no matter what".

C++ templates provide the mechanism to really inline complex code, run it at compile time and just place the result into the binary, instead of clunky preprocessor macros.
The first line

> Users often depend on websites trusting the client environment they run in.

is already a lie. Users don't depend on websites trusting the client environment. Users expect the client to limit the way in which they have to trust websites.

Sure website owners would love to be able to trust user input, but that has little to do with the interest of the users.

If something starts with that kind of framing already you certainly know that this is not going to benefit the user.
> Keys like this should never be used by a team. They should never touch a developer or devops workstation.

That's the point of KeyMux: keys never leave a secure enclave. In fact, KeyMux has no logic to load private keys or to perform key operations in-memory, except in the context of ephemeral TLS. The TLS layer does support using HSM keys for mTLS authentication, so you can use a security token for peer mTLS authentication to a network attached HSM.

That's the whole point--you can use all the tools built and commonly used with in-memory keys, but using enclaved keys, instead.

A follow-on idea I'd like to spend time on, if I have the chance, is to write modules for Vault and/or some KMIP implementation that integrate with the app so that authorization for key operations on a networked-attached key store require the consent of multiple parties (with that consent using local secure enclave-based authentication, of course). So, for example, if you're going to roll a release, one developer or an automated pipeline submits the request but the signing awaits confirmation from other team members.

It's like we have become the enemy we despised during the cold war. We used to make fun of the Stasi and how they spied on everyone to have control over everyone. We touted a government of the people for the people. We highlighted how anti-authoritarian we were and how suspicious of we were of governments seeking more power... yet, here we are we are become that which we despised. These are things one might expect from a banana republic. Not “the leader of the free world.” Were just as subject to the vagaries of the apparatus in power.

When is the Congress going to take back its power from the executive and rein in the abuses? Jefferson and Eisenhower were right. JFK tried and everyone knows how it ended up for him.

a comment on ycombinator is better than having been in the schools?
Great question. There's an explanation here. It sounds like this only applies to dry brining, in other words, a wet brine or salty marinade would skip the first stage.

Dry-brining cuts out the unnecessary added water by using the natural moisture content of the meat to create a concentrated brine that, when given enough time, is naturally absorbed back into the meat before cooking.

Season a steak with kosher salt, and within a few minutes, you will witness osmosis at work: Liquid from the steak will bead up on the surface of the meat, drawn out by the salt. Wait another ten minutes, and that liquid from the beef will have started to dissolve the salt, forming a concentrated brine
