I'm not a systemd hater by any means, but I think you're presenting some of these in bad faith.

> Systemd as a Single Point of Failure: Proper maintenance and security practices can mitigate the risks associated with any critical software component.

"Proper" meaning very expensive and very complex that only a limited number of sysadmins can do? Likely involving expensive virtualization and/or redundnacy technologies? Going down a never-ending rabbit hole that pays a lot of consultants or corporations trapping you with vendor lock-in?

> Systemd's Viral Nature: The adoption of systemd by major projects like GNOME can be seen as the natural evolution of the ecosystem around a dominant technology.

This is naive take. It should be seen as what it is: systemd and Gnome are both Red Hat products (no matter what anyone says, Gnome is Red Hat's desktop), and RH leaders mandating that Gnome depend on systemd in order to ram through systemd's adoption in the same way Microsoft did IE.

There's also a small chance it was a typical Lennart Poettering "fuck you, what are you gonna do about it?" act of pure contempt for what anyone else thinks. That guy has got to be the most hated German since Adolf.
You could use just the asymptote and call it "constant time".

But that's an extremely limited and misleading analysis, so you should not do that. If the time taken goes from a quadrillion to 7 as the problem size grows, don't call it constant.
So the problem is basing policy on junk science. Is basing policy on junk science okay in some fields, but suddenly bad when it applied to genetics? Of course not.

What if it's not based on junk science, but on good science?
That's what historical stage combat always looked like so, I can live with it. To an extend, that is.

What really gets me so, is large battles. For some reason, it is cool to just break formation and charge a tightly packed enemy some 200 meters away. While screaming as loud as possible. Or the helmets in the last duel, hell, collored cloths over armor and insignias have exactly been developed in medival Europe to identify famous nobles and knights without seeing their faces... Plenty of occassions to show some famous actors in other scenes.

All of that is toped by the really bad writing we have in last cpuple of years. I mean TV took off with things like Breaking Bad. And the we got season 8 of Game of Thrones, to pick just one famous example...
Are they sure that USA has a uniform dignity culture? I can see UAE having less diversity of culture among their people, but surely USA is so diverse as to have a complete spectrum of both honor and dignity cultures.

Also, I believe this is the first time I've heard of the terms and seen them compared/contrasted. Can every world culture be dropped into one of these two boxes, or are there more?
That seems to be a decision by the commission, not the the high court.

These two bodies tend to counter each other a lot, I would expect to have a court ruling in 2 years that cancels this decision.

The problem is that these documents aren't served from standardized or predictable URLs across every service provider or regulatory body. I work with a firm who charge heaps of money to provide large companies with publicly available documents. Why do they pay? Because finding the latest copy of 25 different legal docs is a pain in the ass because the entire internet is a broken mess of 404s, over a long enough timeline.
Not at all, a bacteria today has evolved the same amount of time as us, billions of years. And has shorter reproductive span so has an immense amount of evolution built in to optimize it for not just myriad environments they are in today but also robustness to handle billions of years of changing environments. A bacterium of a billion years ago would not survive many niches if any. Anything alive today is incredibly complex and efficient in its ability to survive especially with so many eukaryotic and human predators.
That’s a sad jump. I’d say support/embrace Linux mobile, but we know the app makers won’t support it (and shitty apps like Signal require a primary device running one of the mobile duopoly OSs) & we we know Google with its Web Integrity wants to lock down our web browsing sanctuary that runs on any platform. Yeah, we might be forced into it… or be prepared to go low-tech like going to the bank & calling.

For me this will be really bad if I’m traveling abroad since the website requires 2FA & SMS is the only option which will be roaming & even the annual number swap I do when I get a new SIM requires paperwork & waiting a week for processing. But maybe owning a phone is more of a burden due to lack of device control & privacy concerns.
My point is you have to trust a user to input some raw text somewhat reliably. Have you dealt with users at scale? Whenever you provide a raw field in a form, the values are pathetic, tons of users can’t input things correct

Maybe they’ll write « yeah » or « YE » or « oui », because that’s what users do
I don't get the argument at all. If someone is so averse to publishing a feed of full article text, they can still publish a feed of headlines, first paragraphs, and "read more." It's tedious to read those but much better than no feed.
Thanks for the invitation to join your club, I appreciate it.

I’m quite familiar with security clearances from close contacts. It’s also inevitable to run into controlled information in the types of work people like me do.

The real secret is that there is no secret worth keeping. Secrets are a way to cover for incompetence - it’s the same mindset as “security by obscurity.” Even the most secret information regarding nuclear weapons has mostly been leaked. The main thing that prevents nuclear proliferation isn’t secrets; it’s international pressure plus tight controls and monitoring of materials.

The only way to fix the FBI is to dissolve the institution- and even that would be an extraordinary challenge because the criminal networks the agency possesses would still operate, just as the networks built by secret police in other countries persisted post dissolution.

What I dislike about guess culture in certain individuals, is when they turn it around into a blackmailing, paint you into a corner, culture.

You know, you get a innocent text from a friend: Any plans this weekend? No other context around the question...

Answer no and you might miss out on a party invitation. Answer yes and they implicitly assume that you are free to help their cousins friends uncle to move boxes whole day, often phrased with yes as the only viable answer.

It’s not that I wouldn’t like to help a good friend in need, but it’s not like “no plans” means I’m totally free of their disposal either, my weekend is my weekend. Stop beating around the bush, give the context up front, allow a way out of the question that doesn’t become super awkward for both parties.
It is a quadruple whammy when a style is time-specific, ages badly, few people can pull it off, and seems contrived or odd even when it is in fashion.

I.e. Jellyfish hair could be described as mushroom head, or ... worse. Can't be unseen.

But wolf cuts seem likely to age well. Naturally ragged but still beautiful and styled hair has been a staple of counter culture fashion, rock and roll vamps, and fantasy pinup art for generations.

In fact, wolf cut looks a lot like the Hollywood movie version of "bed head", which has never resembled how most people look in the morning.
You ... can tell them what style you want? I even think long hair cuts are easier to do as they won't look asymmetrical as easily.

>as the 1% pay the majority of all taxes.

I am sorry for jumping in the middle of the discussion (which you seemed to want to quit :-P) but this statement seems to weird to not check out.

After looking into it a bit it SEEMS like it's only true under a very certain reading:

- "The 1%" must refer to the 1% with the highest income, and not the 1% richest, since the actual super rich don't really (often) have registerd income at all. So it's not top 1% richest, but the top 1% of the wage receivers. How much does the richest actually tax? No clue.

- Even when it refers to the top % of wage slaves, it is still wrong for "taxes", but true for "federal income tax" only. According to [1] the top 1% made ca 21% of the money, and payed 24% of the total tax burden. So not the majority.

They never paid directly for the email service discretely against use of the ISPs bundled services which the T&C always said could change. So, you could not e.g. pay optus for a continuing optusnet.com.au email without an associated service of some kind in optus. And, none of those services required you to use the email: it was an adjunct.

I'm sticking to freemium.
No, we should not 'strive to eliminate' them. The entire point of insurance is that it is based on risk assessments that are as accurate as possible, using all the information that is available. It is not a wealth redistribution mechanism, but a randomness redistribution system. If you know that you have an illness, and don't tell your insurance company, then you're a fraudster. If you know you have a genetic predisposition to illness, that's no different.

Discrimination is not inherently a bad thing. There are specific lists of special reasons, and discrimination on those bases is considered bad and has widely been made unlawful. Usually, insurance is an exception! And it should be. I don't see why men should subsidise the health insurance of women or why women should subsidise the car insurance of men. I don't see why the young should subsidise the health insurance of the old. That's not the point of insurance.
Let's just be careful what we call Unix though. In SVR4, I don't think "ls" had that many options. It didn't even have colour (not that I would know; my Wyse 60 could only have Green, Orange or White text... and the colour was set in the factory).

It's the same for many programs that started small but grew loads of knobs with age. You can't claim that this was the Unix vision, because what we call Unix today isn't even technically Unix.

I'm not saying Linux is bad or anything; I'm just pointing out that it's much more organic than Unix ever was, and that the resulting system is not necessarily carefully orchestrated.
No planned obsolescence but they removed the headphone jack & started selling the earbuds which are one of the kings of e-waste compared to getting a nice pair of headphones or IEMs that will last a decade or more.
Yep, I bagged groceries at Albertsons in high school. Gathering carts was absolutely my favorite part of the job. Got to be outside, largely by yourself, getting exercise, and greeting random people. There was also a strong sense of satisfaction when you cleared the entire lot. It was awesome. Literally every single other bagger there felt the same way.

To this day, for this reason, I have no problem leaving my cart in the lot. You know what sucked though? Bagging groceries. Endlessly. Or putting back things people abandon/don’t buy.

If you really want to do someone at the grocery store a favor, bag your own groceries and put things back that you don’t want to buy.

But don’t take away my carts.
A few sets I've had need to be on and open to make adjustments. I'm never a fan of that.
I'm the author of the linked post and I agree with both of you. But this is an objection I got on an earlier draft of the post, so I mentioned it.
If you are following along above, even if SpaceX failed, only the government would have lost money spent. The government contract did not take equity so Elon could liquidate and get all his money back. His cash investment was very little compare to government up front money provided by Griffin.
Most places have occasional electricity shortages when some power plant has some short term issue, but have a large connected grid that let's them get power from elsewhere.

Ignoring all political difficulties that Taiwan might have doing that, they have a huge population on a tiny island 100 miles from anything else.
Russia's a big place. Rest assured, as an American, I could find plenty of Americans who have no idea what happened at Chernobyl or why it would make a less-than-five-star campground.
AFAIK those are users-uploaded contents and can be removed when someone sent a valid takedown request. On the other hand, the Great 78 Project is officially run by the Internet Archive themselves, which makes them the target of the legal action.

It can be because it’s an incentive to create a new, up-to-date app.
On the other hand, why is it so difficult to convince anyone of how good our lives are now, and how much we don't want to spoil it?

> I am working on a new hash that uses more memory (aiming around 4KiB that's shared in a process), but is a whole lot faster.

Though it's hard to imagine anything with 4kib of state being very fast! is it just a precomputed power table or something where the whole thing isn't even accessed for short inputs?

> The finalizer for that hash is a universal hash which I believe is 2^(2-k) almost-delta universal mod 2^k for any k <= 64. So the bottom bits are always high quality.

That's interesting!

> PolymurHash has no such guarantee, the claims are only over the full hash. That said, I don't expect problems in practice due to the Murmur style bit mixing at the end.

That mix at the end is just an addition with a secret constant, right? I'd expect then the least significant bits to not be improved much by it.
Yeah, you’re supposed to use the conveyor belt. These are not the same thing.
I guess even if you allow probabilistic algorithms and expected runtime, you still can't have an algorithm that runs faster as the input size grows. Because... it takes O(log n) time to calculate any random variable whose expected value has a denominator of size n? I'm not entirely sure but that seems right to me.
There are many reasons. Notably, binaries don't tend to compile the OS into themselves. There's always some kind of interface boundary where something depends on OS-defined behavior, like windows and menu bars and printing and finding the user's personal folder and so on and so forth. Microsoft decided to do all of the work to preserve old interfaces long after making newer ones, but it does come at a heavy maintenance and management cost which only makes sense in a market with extremely lucrative legacy forces.
This article is correct that having a general-purpose owner-controlled programmable secure enclave is highly desirable. The design where each program which runs receives a unique cryptographic identity derived from a fused key is also something I've advocated: https://www.devever.net/~hl/secureboot

The TKey is a good design here.

TPMs are a red herring here though, as the TKey is not a plausible replacement for a TPM, which exists to measure a platform boot process. There's not really any way to use a TKey for this, since a) you'd have to load firmware at every boot before the first measurement is taken (i.e., before the BIOS even starts running), which no PC is setup to do, b) you would still be vulnerable to classical MitM of the device, as for any discrete TPM, and unlike modern functional TPMs.

The lack of controlled storage it should be noted does create vulnerability to rollback attacks. It's not really possible to delete data this way.

In any case, with regards to the lack of user-programmable secure elements, it's the industry attitudes here that are the problem. This kind of technology absolutely exists, but it's all under NDA and you can't have it. Smartcards are the most obvious example; you can get nice flash-based programmable smartcards now with 32-bit ARM cores, and no you can't have one. It's ridiculous.

So the TKey is built out of a COTS FPGA, one of the few FPGAs with an open source toolchain (painstakingly reverse engineered). This means it doesn't have any of the silicon hardening that smartcards and other secure element chips have - but there's no choice but to build out of something like this because those chips are all under NDA. The hardware industry doesn't seem to believe in Kerchhoff's principle.

IMO the TKey is basically the best you can do with the publicly available silicon today. In that regard it's pretty good. But a TPM is literally the one application it's least suitable for as a secure element.

I'm familiar with manga and anime art, pro or fan. This is not the level of anatomy we were talking about. Not even close. Classical anatomy drawing is this kind of thing:

https://www.google.com/search?q=classical+anatomy+drawing+sh...

https://www.google.com/search?q=classical+drawing+florence+a...

This does have direct application in american superhero comics. There the artist draws detailed muscle modelling and attempts to place tendons and shape of underlying bones all in the right place. Even when the character is really not human :-) I looked for one but wasn't able to quickly pull a video showing a critique arguing that some muscle is not quite located and anchored correctly.

I rarely see that concern in manga or anime. Very little in the video you linked would show such a concern. The usual manga artist does proportions, yes, often altered to serve their intent - but in my mind rarely goes to that intention of physical correctness.

Let's try and pull some manga muscle ... this is NOT classical drawing or derived from that:

I can’t say I’m inclined to trust a source with the unofficial motto of “It does not matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true.”

Not to mention how they consider doing things like paying people to torture animals on film for propaganda campaigns acceptable, and multiple incidents of them ramming ships.
Seems a pretty obvious solution to this loophole is to reduce non-cash deductibles by what would have been paid in capital gains, and have the non profit pay capital gains when they sell?

Well safety system are required and do add a fair bit of weight/complexity and a wide range of interconnected systems.

For top safety ratings you need a heavy body, reinforced in weird ways, so that even an offset collision results in quite the dance of sacrificial bending, redirecting, and even rotating the engine under the car so it doesn't penetrate the cabin. It also requires quite a few sensors, each of which are on a wiring harness that reaches all over the car including accelerators in the front bumper, explosives in the airbags, explosives in the seat belt retractor, wheel torque, acceleration, and speed sensors. The wiring harness has secondary effects as well, as a critical system it must be protected, numerous mounts, and changes to design for it's routing, protection, and of course access for a human or robot to install the harness.

I noticed that in Teslas the a pillars are HUGE compared to what I'm used to in a subaru forester. Numerous suspension pieces are designed to fail in a safe way so a collision doesn't redirect the wheels or engine into the cabin. I do wonder if it's worth it, if all vehicles weighed 25% less, would there be more or less deaths? At least for bikes and pedestrians larger/heavier vehicles have cost lives.
The C++ standard library prioritises backward compatibility first and fore-most over performance or correctness. Thats why some elements of the C++ standard library are slower than their counterparts in slow, interpreted languages.

> But it's a lot easier to treat the inside of a space once you've already built a good structure that prevents outside sounds from getting in.

I’ll argue that by isolating your room from the outside that you’ll actually have a tougher time balancing the acoustic response of the room.

Yes sound may no longer be getting in, but it won’t escape the room either, so you’ll have to put more effort into absorbing the energy that would normally leave the room. The low -end in particular is going to be problematic and require a good strategy for handing it.

> This directly leads to discrimination against disabled people among other groups.

Yes, of course if someone has a disability that puts them at a higher risk of some event, and they want to insure themselves against that event, they'd pay higher insurance premiums. That's like, the entire point of insurance.

If you live in an area that is prone to flooding, then you either can't insure yourself against flood damage or the insurance premiums are a lot more expensive than someone living in a desert. If you smoke, your health insurance and life insurance premiums are higher. If you have type 1 diabetes, you will probably struggle to get any meaningful amount of life insurance.

What alternative are you proposing? That anyone purchasing insurance will automatically be expected to subsidise the insurance premiums of people that are at higher risk? That's not what insurance is for. If you want to redistribute wealth from people without disabilities to people with disabilities, then you can do that using taxes. But not by pretending there's anything wrong with honest risk assessment in insurance.

>The answer to that is: Not spreading such risks evenly among everyone is morally reprehensible. Imagine your reward for living in constant pain and having a higher chance of dying early is society kicking you in the balls for the crime of being born like that.

Nobody is being 'kicked in the balls'. Stop using such emotionally manipulative tactics and such charged language. Insurance is about spreading random risk. It is not for spreading systemic risk.

I don't think you understand the purpose of insurance at all.
