The actual enforcement mechanism is the root store programs, i.e. the browsers ultimately decide. The CA/Browser forum is supposed to be a cooperative way for CAs and Browsers to agree technical standards but on the CA side this self regulation doesn't always work.

Perhaps the best "big name" distrusted CA would be Symantec: https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2018/03/12/distrust-symant...

Others include WoSign and StartCom.

The problem with eIDAS is that browsers can no longer police these CAs, as they are legally mandated to carry them. There needs to be a mechanism whereby such a CA can be distrusted, doubly so if it is issuing "qualified" certificates (if it cannot get the basics right it should not attest to someone's legal identity).

On the flip side to this there is nothing stopping Europe distributing additional roots that install themselves in browsers. I work in finance and we operate several closed CAs. Our clients install our CAs all the time. It just would not be on by default nor pop up the EV bit.

But that does not stop the digital wallet software (the motivation for this) peering into the certificate itself and making sure it is a qualified certificate.

I think you are offering bad options: refactoring is something that comes with any new work. You don't have to justify it, but include it in your estimates.

Obviously, the risk here is that you include non-neccessary refactoring work in it, and then people stop trusting you.

And finally, there is a hack-it-together approach, but I always try to keep that outside the core product to make it clear this is throwaway effort (if you can have another deployment, that's ideal).

But honestly, it is engineers job to find that hard to reach balance: keep improving the code, and keep delivering value.

That's the hard part of software engineering, and we should all embrace it.

One good thing still about Chamberlain garage door openers is that the screw terminal to wire up the wall switch is still accessible. So when I recently had my garage door replaced, I never bothered to activate the MyQ crap that came with it. I simply wired up my old Z-wave garage door opener module and sensor via two small wires to the two terminal screws. Then paired the module to HASS.

Of course, I wouldn't be surprised if one day companies like these block access to the terminal leads for the wall switch and replace it with some proprietary cable connector and switch.

About your comparison:

Why exactly do you believe Switzerland is better in terms of data protection than Germany? Do you not need to share data with the US as well upon request? The good thing - in both countries - is that it has legal oversight, besides the data on our servers is encrypted so we don't really see the location benefit here.

And what about data retention laws in Switzerland? In the past, you said Protonmail is exempt from this as its too small. Would be interesting to know if this is still the case?

Yeah, this is so true. I read a lot of advice around how I should ask lots of questions etc when I was younger, and I fell into the opposite trap, which is that I never shared anything because I was letting other people do all the sharing.

The real key is curiosity - do you understand their viewpoint? Really? Really really? Are you just responding to a best guess of what you think it is? But once you really do understand (and they understand that you understand) it's totally fine to talk about some anecdote about yourself if it relates.

I read lots of non fiction books. I think the same.

Most of them could condense it's contents in a couple of chapters.

It would be great to have modular books, like Emacs manual. If sections where independent modules you could rearange the book or even create books from a series of sections from diferent books.

That way you could choose different outlines, maybe predefined by the author like, to create books tailed to your needs:

- General Ideas.

- General Ideas + observed cases

- Mixed outline (Concepts + Stories + Conclusions)

- All details about one topic

Moreover, it's a major promotional video for FTX. He presumably would not have agreed to star in it if he didn't like it (or the money).

> Free construction has a similar fate, which is why planning permission is more difficult than it has ever been.

This is new to me. Planning permissions are difficult because the rulling class makes their money from owning property, and thus they prefer to keep the housing supply thight, and their wallets thick. They would do this even if the cost of construction would have increased. (Which it often did.)

Then in Java, if you don't set the limits, it gets the CPU from the VM via Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors()... this method returns the number of CPUs of the VM or the value set as CPU Quota. Starting from Java 11 the -XX:+PreferContainerQuotaForCPUCount is by default true. For Java <= 10 the CPU count is equal to the CPU shares. That method then is used to calculate the GC threads, fork join pool size, compiler threads etc. The solution would be to set -XX:ActiveProcessorCount=X where X is ideally the CPU shares value but as we know shares can change over time, so you would change this value over time...

Edit: or set -XX:-PreferContainerQuotaForCPUCount

"But on the other hand, does it really make sense for everyone to do their own diligence in every matter?"

It probably depends on what is at stake. I don't particularly care about superconductors, but I do care about my knees, and when one doctor several years ago wanted to operate me, I sought a second opinion elsewhere. Sure enough, the other clinic told me that this can be treated conservatively.

I canceled the operation and, 6 years later, I have zero problems, zero pain and can walk just fine, even up/downstairs. I am not sure what the operation would do; knees are sensitive joints and don't like to be cut open.
And the subscription itself was free for their RTC per-hour plan, hence the name.

You didn't even have to use that RTC plan you subscribed to.

As you say, slick/slippery being difficult comes down to chopstick skills.

The ultimate skills test is whether you can pick up something slick/slippery with Korean chopsticks.

Why Korean? Korean chopsticks are both thin and generally manufactured in polished stainless steel. Which makes them a greater dexterity challenge than the Chinese or Japanese formats.
> You are expecting celebrities and their agents to have more investigative power and discretion than the SEC and the DOJ.

FTX did not have a CFO. It would not have taken much due diligence to figure out that something seemed fishy.

The SEC and DOJ make prosecutorial decisions and therefore need to meet a high burden of evidence. All a celebrity (& their team) needs is a feeling that something doesn't seem right.

> "Shot on iPhone" hence has 2 perspectives.

Apple's perspective is that they want to sell a lot of iPhones. They don't care what 1% who have access to professional gear do. There are a huge number of young people who can afford iPhones and can't afford much additional gear, and want to be "creators". They'll do all the learning and work they have to do.

This will sell more iPhones, whether it makes better content or not (it will because more people trying, but that's not Apple's business)
>None of these apply for Europe or US, and I am doutbful they can make a swift transition like China can.

I was under the impression that a disabled submit button would also prevent the form by submitting on enter/return, is this not the case?
You have to check sizeof(int) somewhere. Why not do that in a header? To make sure you're using the checked int, define a new type, eg "int4" in that header, too, and use that.
Congratulations, you'll fulfill this MISRA rule :)

Or just use int32_t and let the compiler fail if your Toolchain does not have that. Then just write an appropriate header to add it (with the correct checks) ;)
Wouldn’t this cause problems if the first submit attempt fails? Then, the form won’t send again because it tried already?
I'm not sure whether that requires extrapolation or not. It depends on what you consider extrapolation. I'd be pretty sceptical of the notion that it requires extrapolation on the basis of a use of the term as extreme as the one above.

(And btw., if that is what you consider the "AI-bro fantasy" then I'm firmly in that camp. There is no logical reason to assume that's not possible; short of identifying a non-deterministic, non-materialistic source of intelligence in human brains that violates known physics and that we can't emulate, it's just a question of when, not if, and the reason for not going full tilt on that right now is down to a variant of the Wait Calculation, not a need for intelligence to kick it off - that is, trying to kickstart that now is likely to be more expensive and not be any faster than trying to kickstart it next year, and so on, and the question is guessing at when that stops being true)

I had a very similar experience. I used to do a lot of "urban exploring" in the UK, and as part of that, I visited Paris for it with some friends. We went with a guide I met on a forum to a secret resistance shelter recently uncovered at the time, and there was still litter from the 1940s. Old cigarette and match boxes, wine bottles, old posters and the like. It was exactly as you describe; intimate, in the way that visiting a mausoleum or cathedral is compared to a museum. I'm sure it's been picked clean now, but the memory will stick with me forever I suspect.

There is a huge difference in values to be observed between an individual who is interested and one who is interesting.

Interesting people are tiresome to be around and very rarely productive. If all you ever do is try everything possible to be interesting, you're boring.

Interested people are a lot of fun and get the ball rolling on a lot of productive energy. If you take a great interest in others and pursue that interest, you make the group great.

Its really that simple. Next time you find yourself nodding off around someone, count the times in the conversation they took an interest, versus the moments they spent trying to be as interesting as possible. You may observe a big release of energy by spotting this factor ..
