It's definitely one of those things that can drive someone a little crazy.

My solution was to activate/trigger another tooltip, that would make the frozen one disappear, and hope the new one would behave normally.

Wasn't ready to give up Firefox, but can't say that the thought didn't cross my mind.

Now that I think about it, still to this day I see similar issues in other apps where some kind of popup/overlay/tooltip persists across tabs/windows/applications.
Perhaps off topic, but I can’t help but feel, since this is the 3rd HN topic I’ve seen on this, that all of this publicity about how “record-breaking” this attack is will only drive more attempts to break said record. People love notoriety.
Before Google, new search engines became crappy after 6-12 months, maybe two years tops.

It's not surprising Google search is now crap, it's what happened to all the old search engines. It's only surprising that it took 15-20 years (depending on perspective), and in the mean time, they've developed a big ecosystem of other stuff.
I'm curious which theological/mythical abrogation you're referring to! Rabbinic tradition generally considers covenant regarding living on the land indefinitely suspended since the 73 CE exile began. Modern religious Jewish Zionist movements claim that suspension is validly terminated and covenant renewed in the act of reclaiming the land by force, mostly motivated by a post-Holocaust reassessment of the waiting-for-moshiach strategy.

Contemporary Christian Evangelicals understand Jewish relocation to the land to be a necessary prerequisite for the Rapture. IDK much about the background or history there.
I've always thought it would be interesting to allow as a defense against a violation of a law to prove that the law is regularly violated without consequence.

Because selectively enforced laws are just another way of saying you have a king at some level, the person who decides to enforce or not.
I think they mean that companies rarely update their status pages to reflect reality (for instance, AWS outages are rarely shown on their own status pages). This is often by design, company policy, or a desire to save face.

Firstly, you're already making a very insightful observation about the problem you've encountered.

There's some truths that may sound easy or obvious, but may or may not be hard to internalize. They may be intellectually truth, but part of your mind doesn't yet believe them.

Your work doesn't reflect your worth as a person.

You do your job but your job doesn't say who you are.

The faster answer is some form of therapy and/or meditation. You would most likely start by observing when you feel most negative, naming the feeling, and exploring the part of the mind that the feeling originated including any core beliefs that formed the negative feeling.

Deceptive bastards.
I love Nomad but having used it in two different roles and now invested time to understand k8s properly, I would absolutely not recommend it.

Nomad is simple on the surface and could have been a great tool - but it is basically unusable on its own without tighter integration with Hashi’s own tools (eg Vault). Configuring and maintaining all those things is nontrivial and ends up being more annoying (for a lesser end result) than just using a fully managed kubernetes cluster like GKE
> However, whether that translates to a loss in momentum is a bit more fuzzy and I really can't tell whether it does or doesn't.

Yes, redshifted photons lose momentum. Momentum (really the stress-energy tensor) is conserved locally, and along trajectories that preserve the metric, but global momentum conservation in GR isn't even well-defined.
If a program is targeting the Linux desktop (freedesktop) then it should be assumed that dbus exists.
Doesn't using your botnet expose your botnet IP addresses/devices?
Honest question, because it is interesting and might change how I approach backing up my passwords. How would you go about maintaing that physical copy updated?

What I think would make this approach hard is that you would have to ponder if a newly created account is important at creation time in order to know if you should update the off-site, physical copy of your most important passwords (I say this because if you want to backup everything and avoid the cloud entirely it is just not viable, having to update this physical backup for each new account. I am currently at over 400 logins in my pw manager, 2 years ago it was half as much).

I think having your passwords encrypted with a high enough entropy master password and a quantum-resistant encryption algorithm, and having an off-site, physical backup of your cloud account credentials is enough for anyone not publicly exposed, like a politician or someone extremely wealthy, even though I would be skeptical these people go through such lengths to protect their online accounts.

The Monty Hall problem is especially unintuitive if you've ever watched Let's Make a Deal, since the problem set up is oh so close to, but not exactly, the set up of the Big Deal in the show. It's too easy to conflate the rules of the show with the math problem, which will lead to confusion.

I think seeing the results of a simulation also elucidates the set up of the math problem vs reading a proof.

See all those green there? Once it started becoming "monitored" by VPs instead of the software engineers on call, they started to become political. I bet there are several sev2s happening for several of those services even as we speak but it still shows green to the outside observer. If one has access to the actual metrics for those services, i bet we would see a different story than what is shown on the "status" page.
Well, my point is that not everybody thinks that it's unbearable to require programmers to be careful with their tool. So I'm not sure if your point really works as a result.

But that said, I personally am one who thinks we should try to do better with programming languages, so I'll give you my $.02 for what little it's worth. The difference between something like a gun being able to blow your foot off, and the C programming language being able to metaphorically blow your foot off, is the complexity of avoiding the failure state. With a gun, even the most beginner gun handler understands that whatever the gun is aimed at will have a bad time when you fire it. They therefore can very easily know the answer to "when I fire this, will I shoot my own foot" is "no, because I'm not aiming at my foot".

With C, it's more like "the gun will shoot your foot if you aim directly at it - but also it'll shoot your foot without aiming at it if it's the third Tuesday of the month, or if Venus is in conjunction with Saturn, or if your aim is tilted exactly 1.4 degrees off target". That is, the ways you can hurt yourself in C are vastly more complicated, and include plenty of situations where even an experienced practitioner may not realize that they're in for a bad time.

I think that is why you see a push to eliminate sharp edges with programming languages that you don't see elsewhere. If it were readily obvious when you're in for some pain with programming languages, people wouldn't object so much.
I just read the article and OP actually does get it checked by a native speaker. You still have concerns despite that additional step?
I understand pointer operations just fine. It's very hard for me to keep up with what is happening line to line.

So, do people use consistent naming standards? Comment every line? Look at the assembly language produced by the compiler?
Reminds me of the discussion around what is "content". Recent criticism of the word suggests that "content" is how art and creative expression gets processed into commodity, entertainment and consumption. With machine learning, "content mills" are hoping to generate endless amount of content without a (human) creator.

I also wonder what a "document" means in the context of a web browser. It includes HTML, CSS, JavaScript, as well as any media files like audio, video. The Pandora's box was to include dynamic scripting, so a document is run as an application, a kind of "hyper document" for multimedia communication and interaction.
Humans originated in africa, and only a subset of our species genetic diversity ever left africa. So all immigration from "many places" still represents only a subset of the existing diversity.

There is also some immigration directly from africa, but that can only increase it to at most the same as exists there. Almost certainly somewhat less, in practice.

I've been playing PC games my whole life, but never with an internet connection. Yes sure I might miss out on some MMOs, but I see these mostly as toxic cesspools of enraged teen activity. Offline PC gaming is quiet, safe, and you know that no one is watching because they can't.

The backing of that number was testified to, under oath, to Congress, which by itself is a felony.

I haven't been following the trial though, and I'm unsure of how much testimony was given. What's reported on this blog does seem like it is a little small given Gary Wang's large role.
So who else? My proposal would be to have companies like Google, Microsoft, Amazon and hosting providers be able to report sources of DDoS attack to the ISPs who can then identify the customer and let the customer know that they have a week to fix the issue or lose connectivity.

No one is arguing that. I've asked a question of whether there's more concrete, factual information and so far it seems the answer is no.
You can do a search for that, I read that article a few years ago but never saved the link.
You're drawing in things from numerous other contexts that don't really apply.

The IPC plugin is optional (you don't have to enable it) and nothing stops you from writing a dbus plugin to accomplish the same tasks :)

Personally, I prefer IPC because it is simpler to implement, debug and use.

> communicate outages to services I use

In general, they seem bad at communicating relevant information. Just looking over at emails from Google, every single one of the last 10 emails they sent me was not relevant to me specifically.

> "[Important notice] Tax changes in Nepal" (yet I have never made a sale in Nepal)

> "Secure your Google Admin account with these best practices" (yet I already do all those things)

I am kind of in the same situation as you - I am no consumated developer whatsoever but happen to be a graphic designer who likes to fiddle with some code and terminal stuff.

how old are your kids? Based on everything i've read on the matter, your satisfaction with having kids just continues to increase over time and by the time they are independent adults its probably more rewarding that almost anything else you could possible imagine doing.
Anyone who belittles you for interacting professionally with them is really just exposing themselves as an asshole, and their behavior is not reflective of you or your worth as a person. That said, what options do you have to train and do something else? Do the minimum to keep your job and be professional, but spend most of your time and energy outside of your job learning and training to do something else. You can use asshole behavior towards you as motivation to burn the midnight oil and get shit done.

In general, any workplace that allows their employees to be abused by clients is not a place anyone should work. You have options even as someone in Nepal, look for international organizations or non-profits or NGOs. Good luck.
Intellectual property scanning using AI would be a service that they could charge for... For both sides.
If they're unsophisticated, it's for clout and "street cred" in hacking communities, no different than tagging a freeway overpass with graffiti.

If they're advanced, they are doing it to test capabilities and responses. The Taliban used to pay kids to light off firecrackers outside base to check defensive TTPs. It also had the effect of desensitizing the sound of gunfire.

Really good adversaries know how to accomplish the latter while appearing as the former.

That's a very generic conclusion, is it related to this article somehow?

> The data covers multiple methods of unlicensed content delivery including Streaming, P2P Torrents, Web Downloads and Stream-ripper sites

We're just assuming that the audience using these sites is the exact same audience as the comparison?

> cinema revenue at the individual premises and film-title level [in the North American market]

I think one audience learns about a new movie on a torrent site and then goes to see it in the theatre. (Another audience never uses torrent sites. Another uses them but rarely goes to the theatre, etc)

If there's statistically significant data about the first audience (as the article claims), that's interesting.
Game theory goes out of the window when considering the actions of megalomaniacs.

I didn't assume it. But for right now, enough people enjoy wood fires that you're not going to see it banned everywhere in the country any time soon. Obviously, it could happen some day. But I'm only making predictions about the near future (say the next 5-10 years), not for all eternity.
If you're an investor in a company, theoretically you can think of the company as a stream of future dividend payments (cash flows) discounted over time.

So maybe the company has $100 in profit in 2024, and they have 5 shares, and they pay out all of their profit as $20 dividend per share. And in 2025 you expect them to make $200 in profit, with the same 5 shares, which is $40 per share.

Although that's a theoretical model, and there's many companies that don't pay dividends at all and still command mighty stock prices (e.g. TSLA) this is how real companies are actually valued -- on the expectation of future cash flows, maybe times some multiple.

The reason why revenue is more important than profits for the vast majority of technology / growth-stage companies is that most of these companies are focused on creating double-digit percent revenue growth every single year. Their profits will be 0 or negative because all of the money that they make from selling widgets is getting spent on marketing or hiring new engineers to build more widgets, or building a factory.

But after 5-10 years, this company will have "scaled over" its fixed expenses like rent, they will have huge revenues, they'll have serious market share, and then you can simply slow down / turn off the marketing and other SG&A expenses, and then suddenly you go from being a 0 or negative profit company to a multi-billion $ profit company.

But if you're too focused on clipping coupons and scrounging pennies as a startup founder, you aren't focused on the right aspect: revenue growth.
> A project or a running product that I'm paying for?

My apologies for being unclear. I was using the terms as synonyms of each other. Every product is a project.

> I'll gladly stick my head in the sand and assume the existing employees can take over in the event a person disappears.

My point is that this even in large companies, it's is far from unheard of that the entire product relies on a single individual's knowledge. If that individual were to go away, the product cannot be changed until someone else is able to come up to speed enough to replace that person. It's probably more likely to happen in a very small company, of course, but big or small, if it happens the effect is the same.
Business can work on more than one thing at once. Businesses typically take any number of risks they invest in. Proper risk management ensures you've not over committed assets to the point of an unrecoverable loss.

Some businesses in some industries can follow a strategy of "never do anything until it's a well established process", others cannot.
it's not really possible to say if ecc would prevent the issue you're describing.. but that's why imo it is worth having ecc--so you don't have to worry as much about if the weird behavior you see is due to random memory errors.

On the more immediately practical side.. if this is happening frequently enough then running memtest86 or GSAT google stressful application test and see if it can pick up any errors.

You also might be able to improve things with a bios upgrade, or by lowering the clock speed of the ram.

> ? Every few days I have to enter a 6 digit number I generate on a device I have with me all the time.

I use more than one service a day, and some infrequently, so for me about every day I have a minute or two where I try to login, need to find my phone (it's not predictable when it will ask), and then type it in. This happens to every person several times a day!

I also now must carry a smart phone with me to participate in society.

But the main drag is that when people lose or break their phones the response is: "just don't do that" and the consequences range from losing your account to calling customer service.

> Mostly TOTP. Bots could do that too. I don't see the connection.

Most people using 2FA do not use TOTP, they use a phone number.

Bots could use TOTP, it's more infrastructure, and it's a proof of work function for them to login.
I long wondered why businesses that don't develop technology are called "tech" businesses. The TL;DR is that it's all in the economics of being an analyst. Consolidation hits them too.

"All the crying about piracy is greed: nothing more, nothing less."

I disagree. Big movie studios can write off piracy, but independent movie studios, with much smaller budgets, can't. It's the same in the music industry.

I knew lots of independent artists in the early 2000s that basically had no career after Napster because nobody would buy their music anymore (but those same people continued to download/listen to it). They also couldn't tour to make a living, because large companies control all of the major venues.

Piracy has forced independent artists to go to large studios to make a living, contributing to the enshitification of the current state of music (and movies).
> if you double the rent of (nearly) all flats, everybody will still be willing to pay that doubled price.

This just isn't true. Many people would move in together, many others would go somewhere cheaper. That would lead to vacant units and landlords would have to lower prices to fill them.
I regularly contribute to the software I use and I tried doing something for Firefox. It was so hard for an outsider that I just stopped trying it. The entire system involving hg, various repositories, outdated wikis, very complex building, bugzilla etc is just so... hard to get into.

If Firefox was on GitHub (or even a self-hosted GitLab) where I can just fork it, play around and have the exact same CI, that would be an entire different story. I whish it was as easy as that.
