I get these arguments, and I still wouldn’t say it’s a “no brainer”. (_Node-brainer?_ :V) Having mostly worked in PHP, I’m certainly biased, and also I’ve been heavily working in Node for the past year.

Node does seem to have better performance - I’d be curious to see some comparisons with some of the newer (PHP 8 I think) performance enhancements that probably aren’t used in benchmarks, like JIT. That said, in my experience, both perform well enough for the majority of what you’re going to do on a day-to-day basis. If you really need to crunch lots of concurrent connections and heavy data loads, maybe you’d go with Node? Although there’s probably something better than either of those for that job.

PHP’s package ecosystem is certainly high quality, again from my anecdotal experience. Composer et al have done a lot of really good things where PEAR fell far short.

I also know that this is mostly a “me” issue with not being a Node backend person from the start, but my goodness there’s a lot to do to dive into an imported method and actually figure out what’s happening. Having to sift through bundled JS to trace back to the root of something is a lot more difficult than just seeing the raw PHP of a Composer package.

To each their own, and the right tool for the job - to say one tech is always better or preferred over another seems a little narrow for my personal taste.

I saw the headline earlier, and my first thought was "I hope he was the pilot, because that would be a fitting way to go for a legend." Not only was he the pilot, but he was flying solo at 90 years old.
There is no PID 0, it's a ABI convention just as using a negative PID is a convention to use the PGID instead like kill -9 -1. PIDs start at 1. The Linux kernel allocates PIDs to kernel threads that are "processes" without a separate address space running in a privileged mode with separate stacks, and generally ignore kill() signals.

To be specific about the RPS problem, model the player and computer as two functions of [all the previous plays] that return the next play.

A round is run by using each function to calculate a play based on all previous plays, then comparing the results.

Now imagine you've got the "perfect" model as the computer player, that wins every time against humans.

A particularly crafty human player shows up, named Cantor. His function is defined as "the choice that beats what the computer's model returns". How often does he win?

This construction only works for simple games like RPS where the two players are interchangeable and a move has a well-defined "opposite".

>DTP is print design

I didn't refer to that kind of print design - the design of the layout and such, since it's irrelevant to Photoshop vs Affinity Photo comparison.

I refer to design for print. Graphical elements, manipulated images, etc meant to go to books, magazines, posters, and so on.

>Large amounts of print/printed work is done with scalable designs for really obvious reasons.

That's a different comparison, Illustrator vs Affinity Designer. And large amounts of print/printed work are done with Photoshop still: basically anything that's not vector. They're just done in high enough resolution to be able to be printed at all their target dpis.
One of my clients has a setup for their clients - some of which connect from arbitrary locations, and others of which need to be able to scripted automated uploads - to connect via sftp to upload files.

Nobody is ever getting in, because they require ed25519 keys, but it is pounded nonstop all day long with brute force attempts. It wastes log space and IDS resources.

This is a case that could benefit from something like the new OpenSSH feature (which seems less hinky than fail2ban).

Another common case would be university students, so long as it's not applied to campus and local ISP IPs.
I get the feeling that there’s an inverse correlation between the number of people that think the military is a competent meritocracy and the number of people that actually served in the military.

It’s a giant government bureaucracy, with plenty of stupid internal politics, and gross incompetency. No better or worse than any other large organization.

If you're using an IP address that's being used to brute force the entire Internet, it's likely that lots of websites are blocking it. If that doesn't matter to you and all you need is to get into a particular SSH server, and also the network blocks VPNs, you're still fine if the SSH is on port 9022 and VPN is port 22. If it's not your own SSH server and it's port 22, then you're still fine if your own VPN is port 22 (on a different host).

Hacking into the VPN doesn't get the attacker into the SSH server too, so there's defense in depth, if your concern is that sshd might have a vulnerability that can be exploited with repeated attempts. If your concern is that your keys might be stolen, this feature doesn't make sense to begin with.

"Old guy crashes airplane" is a somewhat common occurrence that leads to obvious question if they really should have passed their medical. There's a tendency to not want to be the one to say no, especially if you've known the doctor signing the forms for decades... or if you were a fricken astronaut.
Great suggestions. I've read "The White Spider" multiple times. Every time I imagine climbing the Eiger in hobnail books, my palms sweat. A lot.

"K2: Triumph and Tragedy" by Jim Curran is an excellent book about the 1986 disaster.

I can also highly recommend the recent film "Broad Peak" directed by Leszek Dawid about the Polish mountaineer Maciej Berbeka.
Though good news for other countries outside the US. All those Doctor's and nurses (etc) are going to love working in a proper healthcare system.
Pilots in the US need to pass a biennial flight review with a few hours of ground… or add a rating instead. It’s possible he was operating under BasicMed so he may not have needed a recent medical.
I wonder why. Doubtful that it's the absence of alcohol causing such rage though, even if their rates of outbursts are higher than others.
fail2ban has a lot of moving parts, I don't think that's necessarily more secure.

I would trust the OpenSSH developers to do a better job with the much simpler requirements associated with handling it within their own software.
My problem with humans did it, even though it seems most likely, is there weren't very many humans, and the Americas are so large. Wouldn't some isolated populations continue to exist? Also, where are all the megafauna remains in middens?
> Occam's razer also says we should not have different laws of physics in different places.

You're starting from an odd place if you're assuming that's the case. There's absolutely no reason to believe the laws of physics are different in this star's case compared to any other we've seen. It's an absurd leap to believe aliens are at work here rather than this being yet another case of our knowledge of physics being incomplete.

I'm guessing many professors don't choose Xv6 for their operating systems class because it's a great design. Some probably pick it because it's good enough, simple and easier to teach in a single semester where students are also taking other classes.

Kind of clickbait/misleading title? The article even states that PID is a userspace concept. There is no PID 0. PIDs is how userspace refers to processes in syscalls. You can't refer to a PID 0 because `kill(0)` has a special meaning.

But "What is TGID 0?" is much less catchy of a title. Hence, clickbait.

Come on, this is silly. A private opinion was publicly disowned by the government. Of all the things to use as a “well, actually”, this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel. To say he was “officially glorified” is absolutely false.
It doesn't sound like they're going to have significant problems adding more security to this product. For advanced as it sounds, it's not that complicated of a technology. It's just plugging together a bunch of existing technologies. I could probably MVP this app in a week myself given what is available.

I think that exploratory development is, in general, a good thing. Bogging down all development with middle-management procedures might certainly have caught this early. But that doesn't necessarily make that a better way to build products.

The scary thing about Recall isn't actually Recall itself. It's that AI makes this kind of product possible and really easy. I'm sure we're going to see implementations of this idea everywhere and not just on PCs. Imagine AIs watching security cameras.

Agreed.

If we interpret Occam's razor as to "choose the simplest solution with the greatest explaining power," then the "solution" may be to admit that we have an inadequate understanding of how these things physically work.

Good point on the DoS. Exploit on first attempt, maybe, I wouldn't count on that. Can't say how likely a timing exploit is.

If the hotel is using such a dirty shared IP that it's also being used to spam random SSH servers, that connection is probably impractical for several other reasons, e.g. flagged on Cloudflare. At that point I'd go straight to a VPN or hotspot.

I found it curious that they mentioned it, and described why I thought it was inappropriate. Contrast this with them, who presented their own off-topic anecdote without justification. The original “provocation” as you call it was by them, by presenting someone’s sexual orientation as a curiosity like some kind of carnival barker.

> In doing that, you dragged the thread off-topic and continued to escalate.

Asking for clarification and pleading for adherence to the site guidelines is no escalation. It’s a conversation. You and they are the ones making it adversarial, then gaslighting me for my original points made.

> That was wrong. You shouldn't conduct yourself in such a fashion.

I disagree, but even if your points were justifiable, which I don’t believe they are, you are dogpiling by framing the issue as you have done. That was and is wrong. You shouldn’t conduct yourself in such a fashion.

China is a difficult place to try to pry factual information out of, but I wouldn’t be keen to go that route.

I’ve seen some indication on social media of an elevated amount of severe failures of materials and/or poor welding in new vehicles from China. This leads me to suspect the usual corner cutting or outright fraud on material quality that makes China so risky to do business with.

It is difficult enough to hold western automakers to account for failures, I would not want to attempt to need legal recourse from Chinese companies.

The problem with talking about human variability is that everyone can be equally wrong just due to the natural distribution.

What if a 30% of people have metabolisms that work better with low-fat/high-carbs, 30% high-fat/low-carbs, and 40% are kinda just in the middle and don't care as long as macros are balanced? Depending on how your sample breaks down (or which group has the most lobbying capital when the rules are made), your nutrition guidance can flip flop, especially if the effects are subtle except over the long term. Without the ability to group them a priori, the results will be all over the place and may even be unstable depending on whose thumb is on the scale.

Psychiatry faces this problem but much worse. Tons of drugs do work, we just don't know which ones will work for which people so both the treatment protocol and the clinical trials are a complete mess.

Maybe but it doesn't matter because they're not using it directly. The card was AGP/PCI while MXM on the laptop is PCIe, so they had to create an adapter including a AGP/PCI-to-PCIe bridge. In this case, they shoved this graphics card with its adapter into a Dell Precision M4800 released in 2013 because they needed to run Windows XP. They also created another PCB as a PCIe 1x adapter to run it on desktops.

The card was probably intended to work with a specific model of gaming or workstation laptop from 2000 but it's doubtful any made it past the prototype stage. Maybe Dell or Acer sold one or two models of it.
