Obligatory: that comic is one of the few (only?) times Mr Munroe got a topic completely, absolutely and utterly wrong and made a really, really bad comic. That it gets pushed an astonishingly high number of times on technical forums kind of illustrates though how little critical thinking even people who should know better do sometimes I guess. And I suppose how fractally wrong it is can be a good starter for discussion.

Edit: commenting about downvotes is almost always pointless. But pointing out the truth about this comic always gets lots of commentless downvotes, and so this time I want to say that you people are wrong, and you are actively misinforming people. Security is about economics, increasing the time/cost for attackers vs defenders. Additionally, different security measures are about specific threat models. Encryption is entirely orthogonal to physical attacks, which are addressed by physical defenses. But physical attacks are much more expensive and riskier, if they're possible at all, vs electronic. And encryption still yields the important value of knowing you were attacked at all. If you are going through an airport and they demand your password at gunpoint, you can surrender it right away and you've lost nothing, but now you also know they were interested and all the data is likely compromised. Whereas if it was all unencrypted, they could have just quickly and transparently copied it all off, added a root kit, etc with you never being the wiser. But in much of the world, official services threatening you physically isn't legal. And if it's criminals, how often is the "lead pipe" a thing vs "we stole this from some tourist and we don't even know who it belongs to" or the like?

XKCD is rightfully popular. But this comic is shallow and bad. It shouldn't be held up as at all valuable in security discussions on HN or anywhere else.

I read about this today in Hawking’s final book. The crafts would travel immensely quickly, passing Mars in less than an hour and Pluto in a few days, and could reach Alpha Centauri in about 20 years. Importantly there can be a flyby of Proxima B, an exoplanet, which might be the first planet humans could truly colonize.

Of the two options for sustaining human civilization (AI singularity/human-computer integration and space exploration) colonizing other planets seems to me more fun and less likely to fundamentally alter/end humanity.

I’d be curious if anyone here is working on these challenges

They are the types of questions asked by FAANG and the wannabes (cargo cult style) for many years now. There's a site (and other resources) collecting those kinds of problems. They're mostly uninteresting and any CS graduate with a solid data structures and algorithms background (as in the 1xx and probably 3xx level courses, usually 2-3 total over a CS degree) should be able to figure them out if given time. But they aren't given time or they don't have that background or they putzed around in school instead of studying, so people memorize the answers instead for a large number of problems ("grinding") and hope that what they studied are the ones asked.
If you were at all interested in a "serious discussion", you already would've substantiated something, rather than "just invent better fuels" (yes! obviously! but how about today's problems?!) and you wouldn't have retreated to this wispy objection now.

Good comparison but seems to be missing how fast they run. If they're about the same, the skill set and expectations of the devs tips the scales. However if one is noticeably faster than the other, especially on a frequently run query, devs need to adapt to understanding the faster variant despite their initial comfort level.
Can you remember what the anime was? That sounds like fun.
The tendency to begin summarising is very annoying. I'd assumed it was because of limited attention span of human raters who rated summarised or shorter outputs more highly. And I'd assumed this had been there from the beginning.

I encountered it when doing some research into getting GPT-4 to reliably multiply n-digit numbers. Up to 8x8 multiplications it doesn't do this very much, but by 10x10 it is almost impossible to get it to stop doing it.

When the multiplications become even larger, it seems to be literally impossible to prevent.
Android 7 lacked the Let's Encrypt root certificate, and could only use the Let's Encrypt protected sites because their original root CA was cross signed by another CA.

The cross signed CA certificate expired, so that solution stopped working. This meant that every app that connects to sites with LE certificates ran into HTTPS validation issues.

For browsers and other apps that opt into the user certificate store, the solution was simple: download the new Let's Encrypt CA and import it into the user store.

However, the system store, which all apps default to, couldn't be altered, because they were part of the ROM. That meant that every app that chose not to opt into the user-provided certificate store broke on Android 7 once the cross sign certificate authority certificate expired.

Many app developers don't know about these stores (or, let's be honest, about the details of HTTPS) and other apps explicitly chose not to opt in. Before the expiration of LE, the user store was used almost exclusively for MitM attacks; some by nation states like Kazakhstan, some by people reverse engineering apps, others by stalkerware. There are apps that have to work with MitM interception for certain businesses (for example, because of regulations regarding secrets) but those will usually be aware of the issue and provide an opt-in if they want to keep that customer.

That's why Google opted to make the user store opt-in in the first place. This broke the workflow of people like me, who run their own internal CA, against better judgement, for stuff like home lab servers.

So, in short: a security measure combined with manufacturers dropping support for their phones after ridiculously short amounts of time meant that Android 7 users couldn't access tons of apps and websites.
Yeah but this thread became about "you need an API".
This is what stopping me from migrating to Bitwarden. Do I trust their servers and hope they are not as bad as Lastpass? Or do I need to host everything myself and accidently leak it? I've had plenty of Wordpress sites through the years that were exploited before they introduced auto update. I've also heard that the autofill is quite bad.

I wish password protection was a lot simpler.

You're justifying a policy that heavily punished the Greek population by pointing to the actions of a small layer of elites (i.e., investment banks that aided corrupt politicians in cooking the books). You're doing this by conflating this small group of people with the entire Greek population, as an amorphous "they."

To be fair, it is quite clearly binary in the vast majority of cases.

But of course, biology can be messy, so there are exceptions, not just due to genetics but also due to development issues.

Apart from that there are also psychological issues, where one's biology might be clearly defined but the person might feel differently, for all sorts of different reasons.
So, from the pattern of those UFO observations that had mundane explanations, we can extrapolate that all of them could have mundane explanations.
What exactly is Bitwarden getting you if you're doing this copy process? I have only used Keepass and haven't read why Bitwarden would be superior for some scenarios over what I am already doing.
> Elsewhere in this thread, people are saying that you can’t protect people from themselves… but Apple seem to be doing a good job of it

Precisely my point. I think there are benefits to both locked-down devices and open devices, and both are desirable. If Android is transitioning towards more constrained-by-default, (a) that's smart given it's working so well for their largest competition, and (b) it opens the field wider for the truly open-stack phones to gain users. Win-win.

I wonder if you could shave off some more bits by considering the specific movement restrictions of some pieces:

Bishops can only ever occupy squares of their respective colour, so you'd only have to encode ~32 possible positions instead of 64.

Pawns (before promotion) can only move straight forward and diagonally forward, which makes their range of valid positions a sort of upside-down triangle shape, with the "tip" of the triangle at the respective pawn's starting position. (e.g. it's impossible to move the pawn from A2 to H2 - or even to H8 - without a promotion)

Haven't made the exact calculations, but it might be possible to encode both positions with 5 bits each instead of 6 bits.

When I was working in construction (electrical) we would “predrill” our grounding rods about 75% the length using this method. These are normally 1/2-inch diameter, 8ft long rods that must be driven via rotary hammer but the bedrock being so close to the surface and Sacramento valley riverbed clay density was just too much sometimes for the hammer.

99% of all this is legitimate counterintelligence. Different parts of the government benefit in various ways, like justifying a domestic counterintelligence program. Or getting access to emerging technologies, building information networks, shielding classified aerospace technology, foreign disinformation and longterm geopolitical tactics.

It will never be explained because it is both fake and necessary. The government can’t stop its employees from believing in pseudoscience and the supernatural thus making them targets of foreign spies.

Overall, some people involved in this do seem to want it to end. Even if you’re an influential actor within the Intelligence Community, you are up against say 20 other agencies/departments that benefit from the UFO enigma.

The user store is a certificate store that the user can add certificates to. It used to be the case that by default apps would get certificates from both stores if they asked the system for certificate authorities to validate against, with the option to opt out of specific stores, but this changed years ago. Now apps need to opt into loading user configured certificate authorities.

The system store, located in /system/etc/cacerts, is baked into the system image and can't be altered without root. The user store, located under /data, can be updated from the phone's settings.

The system store is now the default store all apps use to validate certificates, unless they pack their own certificate authorities. Many apps doing certificate pinning will do that as well, which prevents them from being MitM'd without injecting code into them.

US Startup hiring fell below pandemic low (source: Carta, through June 2023)
Carta is a cap table company that also gathers data from 2,000+ US startups. Here are key findings from their Hiring study released last week (January 2020 - June 2023):

- May 2020 was the lowest point of pandemic startup hiring; roughly 18,000 employees were hired

- In June 2023, startups hired 12,449 employees

- At the peak in January 2022, startups hired 69,952 employees

- In the first half of 2022, startups hired 314,000 employees.

- In the first half of this year, that number fell to 129,000.

- Since January 2020, net headcount (hiring - departures) had never fallen for more than 1 month consecutively. It’s fallen for 5 out of the 6 months to start 2023.

Presumably, an app developer needs to save data in this format for android to ever use it. Github - which is not the universal published code repository - only has 178 code instances [0] that create this kind of record, 95 in kotlin and 4 in typescript (others are text, xml, long tail formats).

I would venture that an android app that allows people to self record a sexual experience will use their own format, presumably to capture more of the dimensions available (ex participants, location).

I don't buy their invasive species argument, however I can think of three reasons not to let your cats outside.

First, I would not want to resk my cats to predation. Fisher, coyote, and eagle all would make a meal out if a beloved pet and crossing a country road where there is long grass and fast pickups seems like a recipe for disaster.

Second, if I let my cat out there is little chance I can train it not to go on your property. I should respect that yours is yours just as I expect you to respect what is mine is mine. You would not let your cattle graze on my land right? Good fences make good neighbors as they say.

Finally and admittedly the weakest argument is that Joe down the way has no clue your cats are fixed. He just sees they you let them roam and it normalizes this for the community.

We have cats and dont let them outside. We dont have a rodent issue either though as our neighbor let's their cats outside and I recognize the hypocracy there.

Taking Satoshi's bitcoins would be a really bad idea. People who had the misfortune of having the name "Satoshi Nakamoto" were harassed by journalists who thought they might be onto some story. Any movement of those coins would gather unwanted attention -- either it was the real "Satoshi Nakamoto" who used them, or somebody stole them, both would be a headline news story. And given the high stakes, anyone dumb enough to attempt this heist would probably be risking their life.
