This assumes Randy is incompetent, but not malicious. Nothing is stopping an attacker from contacting Randy out of band, say over a phone or personal email, and then blackmailing him to get him to hand out company information. The key here is to scope down Randy's access so that no matter what kind of an employee he is, the only access Randy has is the minimum necessary and that all of his accesses to company information is logged for audit and threat intelligence purposes.

That's the problem with these MITM approaches. They open up a new security SPOF (what happens if there's an exploit on your MITM proxy that an attacker uses to gain access to the entire firehose of corporate traffic) while doing little to protect against malicious users.

There is one VERY big difference between PWAs and Yahoo circa 1998: you can use PWAs without a network connection, with full interactivity. This is really important for me, and probably for anyone who travels frequently, is on a metered internet connection, or just lives in a location with poor infrastructure.

Yahoo did and still does require you to be connected to the internet, and whether that's on a 2400 baud dial-up connection or a 5G wireless link, it will still cost money and be less reliable in places.
I totally agree, which is why it's disheartening that universities like Harvard use it as a metric to exclude Asians:

Write your signature. Scan it in. Apply it to documents that want signatures.

To some people, this doesn't "feel right" the same way that it doesn't "feel right" that I have rolling star-base office chairs around my dining room table. They are far more comfortable than any "dining room chair" I've ever been in.

In both cases, when people don't take my good advice, I shrug and move on.
The only motivation for the ISPs etc., who you need to get onboard, is to get more users. This is why IPv6 adoption has been soaring in the last 3-4 years when there's large new use cases that cannot economically get addresses in the volume they would require and didn't happen when IPv4 addresses were more freely available.

The only other way to get them to invest in alternatives to IPv4 before IPv4 stopped meeting their business needs would have been via regulation.
By contrast, other package managers just don’t update thing. You end up so out of sync it becomes a massive pain.

The quick test is that the first packet is generally going to start with hex C[any nibble]00000001 and be exactly 1200 bytes long, ending with a bunch of 0s.

A better test is to see if the full header makes sense, extract the initial encryption key, and check if the rest of the packet matches the signature.

A mere ten years after the Holodomor, I imagine Ukrainians weren't very picky about their allies in fighting the Russians. We have only ourselves to blame - for a century we've glossed over Soviet crimes [1] (Quick - how many Hollywood movies can you name dealing with gulags and purges and man-made famines? Now how many can you name about the Holocaust?), so now we have a public who thinks they were basically good guys with a failed economy.

If there's an upside here, it's that humans will now be forced to refine their BS detectors.

In doing so the species would improve critical thinking skills which can be applied to all information regardless of source. Which, I agree, was often BS to begin with. But in theory would be more difficult to skirt on by without notice if humanity upgraded their critical thinking.
Thank you for taking the time to write this very detailed and lucid explanation.
I do not approve of the use of the term “creator” here when they may believe they are creating but they are actually working inside a box (machine) or job parameter which inherently is derivative.

As in, I can whistle a song I created on the guitar because I pull it out of thin air - can he do the same with his “creation” as it were?

More to the point, (at least to my understanding) it puts it on par with another contender that was rejected from the NIST competition for being too weak a security construct.
That doesn’t sound like it’s typings fault at all. That’s a language design choice. Typed languages have types that handle adding numbers of all sizes same as dynamic typing.

In fact JavaScript numbers aren’t magic, they are 64bit doubles, which have their own strange behavior and special cases, many of which could be considered “incorrect”. You’re acting like dynamic typing solves problems that it doesn’t solve.

Thanks! Workflows and Airflow are similar in that they can both be used for ETL tasks and we do see customers use Workflows as an easier to use replacement for Airflow. Airflow is specialized for heavyweight ETL so it's a better fit for that whereas if you're interested in doing non-ETL tasks like alerts and APIs in addition to ETL, Workflows would be a great choice.

I don't think that it's just inefficiency at certain power levels:

The big table on
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake-specific_fuel_consumptio...
has the Marine Trent rated less efficient than some car engines. And that table is peak efficiency, not efficiency at some arbitrary inconvenient power level.

But you are right in so far as efficiency at the low end of the power range is very important in commercial shipping. Because the energy demand (at the drive shaft) of a given trip is highly dependent on the desired speed and if going show ruins your engine's efficiency any dip in demand will ruin you economically (because others on the market are much better at compensating the dip by "slow steaming")
I would pay a shameful amount of money for a big, fat laptop in the style of the old school thinkpads with modern hardware.

I don't give a fuck how thin or light my laptop is. I want it big and beefy with some monstrous heatsinks and fans that don't sound like a jet engine after 3 seconds of CPU load. I want all the ports and a battery that weighs five pounds.

Current design trends for laptops has resulted in significantly worse machines. It's why I still use a T530 from 2013 as my daily driver. I'll probably keep using it until it finally develops a fault that I can't repair. Barring a catastrophic accident like a spill or a drop, I expect it to keep on chugging for at least another 5-10 years.
Right. But I'm saying that I don't think that mentality actually exists. I think the mentality of people who prefer static analysis is more like "if it compiles, it has passed a huge number of test cases that I'm really glad I didn't have to write myself". But "if it compiles, it works" is a more pithy short-hand for that :)
All of those are supported by TAP, they're just not top-level keywords.

Just start your test's description with your "CUSTOM-KEYWORD", then aggregate on that, instead of "ok/not ok".

You can even easily plug into prove(1) to emit your own custom summary.

You can aggregate on anything, e.g. you could consider all tests taking longer than 500ms failures, regardless of top-level "ok" status.

Your use-case is rather niche, so it's not a failure of the protocol that it provides a boolean "ok/not ok" at the top-level, and not "failed known flaky" or whatever (although that's usually marked as "TODO" test).

It's intentionally minimal exactly to make it easy to support the sort of use cases you're describing here.
In today's news: 4chan users who spam racist garbage, not because they are racist, but because they want to create chaos and are fishing for a reaction, get a reaction.

This is like writing newspaper articles about toilet graffiti. You're making the artist's day.
The reason enumerations are better than free text is to so tools can handle them in a uniform way. This is a major problem that is keeping TAP from being very useful.

For example, if you get MISSING outputs from tests under CI, you know something is wrong with your CI configuration. If you get either kind of WIP output, you shouldn't publish (FSVO publish - some projects might require this for every commit, some only for commits on the main branch, some only on tags).

It also makes it easier to diff test results meaningfully.
I have read it several times at ~12, ~25, and again in my late 40s.

I think it’s interesting that the author has the following mindset about non-solo jobs: “You're going to work. The choice has been made. The structure around that work, and the underlying purpose are set by others and you just need to make it happen”.

This is not always the case. For example, I work in a midsized consulting firm at a fairly senior level. While I have a line manager, he’s only there to give me corporate news and policy. He not only doesn’t tell me what to do, he often doesn’t know what I’m doing.

What happens is there are a pool of account executives who I have grown to know over the years. We talk regularly, and if there is something I could work on (pre-sales or a project), we talk and figure if I’m a good fit and have bandwidth. Unless I have almost no work I can be choosy about what to work on. Yes, clients and the account guys can mold my deliverables, but I have a lot of sway in that as well.

This also lets me figure out my own hours, within constraints if engagements of course. Since I have kids in school, this gives me great flexibility to schedule work around family, instead of vice-versus.

So while what the author describes as regular jobs may be common, it is not the only model.
> This is why people hate AI and the people who use it.

For me personally, I just hate that they don't stop talking about it!

I think focusing on the AI-shit is missing my point: why do you even care about this? What is really at stake in this? Is it really just the idea that there is some kind injustice being done? An injustice to whom?

If you spend your life doing all the hard work it takes to excel at something, the rewards of that hard work are intrinsic to your new mastery. What someone calls you or not because of your skill is like the least important thing about the entire pursuit.

I too am quick to point out how annoying the AI stuff is, but I think if we are going to defeat them we need to hold on and affirm shared human capacity more than we need to protect titles.
My waterpik kills bluetooth to my airpods.
I'm using sway (wlroots + xdg-desktop-portal-wlr). Sharing the whole screen works.

I have tried using chrome (stable and unstable) and OBS. OBS uses pipewire to capture (which I believe in turn talks wayland xdg-desktop-portal). I think chromium works the same way (I have the chrome flag "enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer" turned on). There doesn't seem to be a way to share a single specific window.

There is so much half-cocked or old information out there it is hard to find the right place to look. At the end of the day I'm not sure if xdg-desktop-portal, wlroots, or pipewire need to be improved.

What's smart about this bounty is that these kinds of silly hashing constructions, and scalable pipelines for figuring them out through brute force, are the bread and butter of password crackers, which is practically a sport now. So you'd be optimistic that if the problem is interesting enough, somebody will work it out if there's like, a pre-MD5 hash or something.
Actually yeah.

Actually actually: I'd be happy to pay for a subscription service to news in the same fashion I pay for Spotify. The only reason I don't go the extra mile to subscribe to their paid offerings is because every major news outlet is trying to get me to subscribe individually. Which means I need to track subscriptions individually.

I could manage subscriptions through Apple News, but I get a reduced offering when going through Apple.

Seriously, someone just invent Netflix for news subscriptions already.

Like no. Someone invent Spotify or Netflix for news/print already ffs.

Does that use gnome for the wayland compositor? Not sure what you mean by compiz in this context -- I thought that was an X11 window manager. I see wayfire is a "spiritual successor" of compiz based on wlroots.

Or that's what they want you to believe - because obviously that's more lolz.

Though maybe there's some that actually are, because of: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1012082

Ask yourself why an actual racist without any intention to cause chaos would engage in this behavior though.

It's clearly intended to offend and get a reaction - that's the main goal. Whether it's done by actual racists is secondary.

> 4chan users who spam racist garbage, not because they are racist, but because they want to create chaos and are fishing for a reaction, get a reaction.

No one spams racist garbage despite not being racists because they want to create chaos and are fishing for a reaction.

Now, its true, that people who are racist and also attention seekers might be motivated more by the latter than the former in doing that, but that’s a different issue.

And the source article from 404 Media is very much about how this is happening despite the Bing tool that they conclude is being used for much of it itself being largely crippled to prevent “harmful” images, and explicitly calls out the point that the result is that non-harmful use is being sacrificed, with no meaningful impact on harmful use. Which, I would think, would be a message that someone who sees the 4chan use as of no more negative significance than “toilet graffiti” would fully back, since crippling tools to ineffectively prevent “toilet graffiti” is even more problematic than doing though in a (failed) attempt to prevent something that might be more important to prevent.

Summary of “The Procrastination Equation”
> The U.S. government did not devolve into a mess, as far as I know. In fact, it started out in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devolution (yes, that's the term).

Very funny. You know very well that I used the term to mean "degraded". If you don't. Well, no point in having a conversation.

> claiming that the U.S. government is less functional than Mexico's, despite Mexico's having better health outcomes per healthcare cost, is laughable.

No, what is laughable is fabricating something I DID NOT SAY and then making a statement while pretending I did say it.

What I said is that the US is different. Every country is different. You cannot take a solution that works for country A and assume it will work in country B. They are NOT the same thing.

> those higher deductibles are anecdotes of people whose deductibles went up so that other people's deductibles could go down.

Triple? No, that's abusive and wrong. Nothing wrong with helping people and sharing in the burden. We are being robbed of the equivalent of a mortgage payment or our kids college fund. That's criminal.

The President of the United States of America promised its people that, if you like what you have, you could keep it. Period. His words. If you think it is right for our politicians to deceive us like that, well, there's nothing I can say to make you understand just how wrong this is and how dangerous it would be to give them more control over our lives.
As distasteful as memes can be; the slow, steady, and ever more complete of government and corporate control is just as sad to me. Maybe even worse because a lot of the distasteful stuff is made by people with bad taste while the plasticising of the internet is done for profit or influence. The Eternal September, done deliberately.

There is an interview between Mike Wallace and the Chinese leader in the 90s where Wallace asks the leader why they censor the internet. He specifically says, "don't you think your people are smart enough to make up their own minds and come to their own conclusions?" So it goes, now the entire world is treated the same way.
As far as I'm aware, nobody got physically hurt from Gamergate, ie. ignoring casual hate would have completely removed its impact. Though you could argue that that was impossible.

Do you have evidence for your claim that ignoring casual hate caused either of those things? My baseless theory is that suppressing and excluding these people from the mainstream is what riled them up in the first place; it certainly didn't feel like they were being ignored even after that. But I am open to contradicting evidence.

It is conceivable, if a naive self-improvement feedback system is implemented.

But it is highly unlikely that any of the major online image generators are implemented in a way which would be vulnerable to this.
