"Rolex aren't the best watches..."

Has there been a recent independent study of how these luxury watches actually perform as watches (as opposed to their looks and swagger value)?

I'm not likely to ever own one—except for my imitation Rolex clone I bought as a joke in Thailand for about $20 some years back—but it would be interesting to know if there are significant performance and reliability differences between them.

Also, do we know anything about the factory and manufacturing methods that these luxury brands employ. It's said Rolex is very secretive and won't let anyone outside selected employees in its factory so what about the others (Patek Philippe, etc.)?
Are there any videos available? I didn't see one.
Which universities in Australia? Most of the student accommodation is independent (especially ones associated with the sandstone unis, see https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/programs/hack/broderick-revie... for why that's sometimes a problem), and there's no requirement to use student accommodation. International student tuition is a major funding source, but I've never heard of accommodation being much of a money spinner.

which-key is more like autocomplete for keybinds. I consider it orthogonal to transient. It's meant for modals that show you what keybinds actually exist given some "prefix" you have just inputted. If I had to make an analogy, I'd say which-key is closer to company+counsel+ivy than transient.

I have used which-key with the three packages I just mentioned for as long as I have been using Emacs, and this is how I've always seen its role.
Finding your tribe.

A few comments here refer to religion, but I think this is a better label.

I've restarted life a few times, moving to foreign countries where I didn't know anyone.

Each time, it isn't as if I landed and just instantly had a group of people I related to and enjoyed spending time with. It usually has taken a year, and it's a tough year when I was thinking "maybe I made a mistake".

It wasn't as if I didn't have "friends", but I didn't feel like the people I was spending time with were "my people". Which was fine.

But then, sometimes, you find a group that you really click with. The nice thing about this is that you really appreciate how rare it is to find your tribe, particularly when you've been spending time with people who aren't yours.

I think this might be along the same line as religion and parenthood. Though parenthood is kinda forcing the world to accept that you're making your own tribe, but maybe we just ignore that.

You can also belong to more than one tribe, which is nice. I have my social tribe, and my work tribe, and I truly feel connected to both of them.

Growing up, I never had a tribe until I moved away from home, and even then, I knew that the friends I had wouldn't be friends for life.

I think most people accept that their family is their tribe, and though I'm still close with a few of my siblings, I probably wouldn't have known what it feels like to be free of a family which isn't your tribe, unless I had moved away (which I did in high school).
This post seems confused and misleading. It only lists ways to escape containers with various non-default capabilities added, but doesn't address the other more realistic and seen in the wild ways (eg from uid=0 confusion due to disuse of user namespaces, kernel privilege escalation bugs, etc).
Visa et al are going to charge a minimum transaction fee for small-value transactions, which covers the typical charging session. Third party services are an advantage, because they can bundle small transactions together and take advantage of their economies of scale and their own fraud models. There is a world where Visa and the payment card industry looked forward in the year 2005 and said “IoT devices like EVs will need payment capability, let’s think about how to be essential to this ecosystem in a way that removes the need for third party services and saves everyone money” but that kind of technical innovation seems to be outside of their core competency.

That's not really how most type systems work. Take array access. The typical typing is: if you have an `Array[A]` and reference an `Int` index you get an element of type `A`.

ref: Array[A] Int => A

This says nothing about what happens if you access an out of bounds element. In a memory safe language this is enforced by a runtime check. Without memory safety you get YOLO semantics like in C.
Are really this many people getting a hundred unfiltered email a day that they can't skim in 5m? Is travel planning really that much a chore that you can't rate attractions or find a good rated hotel to book in 15m? Would you really trust an LLM to do these tasks? When externalising these, even with the best of abilities it will fail like human assistants could. Not to mention the privacy and ad targeting when using a cloud LLM, which a human at least has better chances to avoid.

> It does answer the question of housing costs and type for college students

It would answer that question, but why would anyone want that question answered...?

The question in question asked whether or not housing is a college cost. We could ask the same of food, clothing, entertainment, etc. If you buy a new Ferrari while attending college, does that mean your college bill went up hundreds of thousands of dollars more?

Or, if you want to look at this from a different perspective, is housing an employment cost if you have a job? If you volunteer at the soup kitchen, is housing a soup kitchen cost? If you like to race cars, is your house a racing cost?

If the answer is yes, does that mean students who do things other than study have lower college costs? As in, if rent is $500 per month, also having a job means the cost would be divided between activities; let's, for the sake of discussion, say $250 attributable to college and $250 to employment. Whereas someone who only goes to school is paying the full $500 in college costs. Meaning that, all else equal, the person with the job pays $250 per month less for college than the person who has dedicated all of their time to school.

It's about slowly demonstrating that such things are highly held principles within an organization. That is, if there's resistance to open and honest meetings within your teams, most probably it's because historically open and honest has not been a safe bet within that organization.

I've worked in many companies/teams that gave lip service to the truth and open/honest discussions, but it usually only took a few times ignoring these principles to kill any trust in the idea. Rebuilding that trust takes time and usually starts small -- it requires demonstrations that persons with power in the company will do their best to protect against repercussions for objective, good faith open reporting (the truth). This will take awhile from my experience, and in many cases there is a need to define 'good faith' a bit more, else truth sessions typically end up as emotionally charged finger pointing sessions.

It's possible to do all of this, and not even hard, it just means that those who are asked to lead will need likely need to deal with some emotionally charged arguments for a time if/when someone uses the same policy for emotional venting. Nothing wrong with a bit of venting, leaders should be able to handle this gracefully also, but my experience is a lot of leaders are not trained or prepared on how to handle such situations, and the tendency is to rely on the authority of their title rather than address the concerns directly.

Basically, there isn't much to it, it's just a rather awkward path that is best started in smaller groups, establish clear and unambiguous boundaries [0] for such a culture, and provide new reasons for people to trust in _this_ system which has likely failed them historically.

0 - I wouldn't read too much into what the boundaries should be, it's something that is dependent on the people you work with. For a team I was asked to lead, it was set early on that openness and objective discussion were essential -- if a project or situation turned sour, it was established that the important thing was to know and understand why it happened, not to punish, and that meant giving freedom to the team to make mistakes and that while we would review and correct mistakes, the team would also be protected from those "out for blood" over the mistake. It was probably 2 years of ugly arguments with other teams who wanted a scapegoat, but the end result was the team I was asked to lead grew very fast professionally and we got very good at self-correcting and owning mistakes when they happened. Boundaries for the team were that "sometimes" there are going to issues we must handle with a few "we really must avoid messing up here" clauses included -- being extremely judicious with the use of such clauses and ensuring they were truly the exception and not the standard helped retain the sense of importance for such clauses while maintaining the team's freedom to handle projects in the "best" way.

Containers are absolutely a security boundary, and an excellent one at that - at least, Docker containers are.

1. You get file, process, and network namespaces, which are a security boundary

2. You get a seccomp filter, which is a security boundary

The "containers are not a security boundary" meme needs to die.

Elsewhere you mention that "containers are not sufficient for untrusted code" but that's a very specific and very niche threat model. Most people don't say "send me a binary and I'll execute it", or have arbitrary RCE + multitenancy concerns.

Containers aren't sufficient for multi-tenant RCE because the RCE is by design so 100% of your security pressure is on the container at that point. In the vast majority of cases you're dealing with servers that don't intend to allow arbitrary code execution, and containers are an extremely easy way to drive up the cost of an attack given that the attacker has already spent a lot of time and money on the RCE.

SELinux is also not sufficient for the "RCE by design" threat model - is SELinux not a security boundary?

Further, containers can limit the impact of remote vulnerabilities like path traversal attacks, since they have file isolation by default.

edit: I see elsewhere that there's a real lack of clarity here.

First off, a security boundary can be meaningfully defined as a limitation on an attacker that does not have a way around it without additional exploitation.

So the main reason why people have said "containers are not a security boundary" is because:

a) Very, very early on, escaping a container was trivial - like you could just ask to leave and you'd be out.

b) There were some blog posts basically saying "containers aren't sufficient for multi-tenancy" where arbitrary users can run arbitrary code on the same host. This is still the case today - but it's also an extremely rare threat model.

Why would containers not be sufficient for (b) ? Because the majority of the Linux kernel is still exposed to the attacker within a container - the vast majority of system call interfaces are exposed (but seccomp removes a number of these, which is nice). The Linux kernel is not at all sufficiently hardened against attackers who can make arbitrary system calls, therefor containers are not sufficient against those attackers. If you give the attacker RCE by default (ie: your service is "Send me a binary and i'll run it") then an attacker can spend all of their time and money just on a local privesc, which isn't crazy difficult.

Since the cost of RCE in an RCE-aaS is 0 the consensus is that containers aren't strong enough for RCE-aaS threat models. In that case use Firecracker or gVisor or a dedicated host.

Otherwise, RCE costs tend to be pretty high and having to develop an additional LPE on top of one is, at minimum, quite a pain for many attackers.

Containers are extremely easy to deploy software into, something like a Firecracker VM is not. Containers are basically just processes, so you can monitor them and manage them trivially. Monitoring and managing VMs with processes inside of them is obviously harder. So I think the 'bang for your buck' with containers is extremely solid.
which-key helps a lot with prefix commands. But doesn't help when you don't know the variants of I search that have silly default key bindings like the aforementioned C-M-@
There was a section of IBM's quantum computing challenge that had you encrypt/decrypt logical qbits by transforming their phase state to a known degree. If the state was altered in-transit, than the inverse transform will not cancel out correctly.

the challenge also mentioned that for it to work in practice, the qbits themselves would have to be transported somehow.

Inefficiently run bus systems are a whole other issue. We need to move away from running largely empty gigantic vehicles over roads when the demand isn't there, and transition to public transit that aggressively scales based on data-driven demand measurements.

I don't know why on-demand public transit systems aren't more popular.

> Yet somehow GitHub's outages are tolerated

This isn't exactly a hard concept to grasp though: it's entirely possible to use GitHub and still be productive when it's temporarily offline; Git doesn't stop working on your local machine because GitHub is down.

It's literally impossible to use Twitter when it's temporarily offline. There is no "offline" mode for Twitter.

There is also the argument to be made that (a) what GitHub does is orders of magnitude more complex than what Twitter does, and (b) I don't recall anyone buying a controlling stake in GitHub and then loudly declaring that it doesn't need all those staff and firing (IIRC) all but one of the Ops team.
