Sorry, nope.

Something so vague as “making world better/worse” can be “self evident“ only for ignorant and arrogant, or brainwashed people.

Anyway, give us please couple examples of detremential companies and also a source of authority to judge “objectively”, to have a meaningful debate.
Unfortunately I assume it’s pretty cost prohibitive for an e ink display with a decent refresh rate. At least one good enough to play games on.
I think he's somewhat addressed that in the article by pointing out that state by State polling is more inaccurate then the national polls in part because it's done so rarely. So I guess using the national pulling as a proxy for state is something they feel is more accurate when they try to figure out the electoral college results.

I would find it interesting if pulling in these days is actually able to figure out anything. In addition to the polling problem itself, we have two frontrunners who have probably garnered more "not that one" votes than any previous race in history.
Entertainingly enough I got to see a similar thing happen, where a configuration file was killing hardware in the field. After the failure and remediation multiple CI jobs were put in place (some months later) to do basic validity checks on the files.

The lesson of "multiple parser implementations for the same thing seems bad" and "sanity checks to prevent breaking things are hard heuristics to define" such that further changes were deferred.

All that to say that I can appreciate circumstances in which satisfying "don't crash the system" in response to configuration data can actually be fairly hard to realize. It can very significantly depend on the design of the pieces in question. But I also agree that it's pretty damning.
I'm sure there's a fancy name for the fallacy you're presenting here but there are more than two choices.

The third choice is stop building in such a way that these wide and fast roads are needed.
this is super fascinating. I'm sitting here with my kids going through accident after accident in our neighborhood and piecing together what happened for each one. Every report tells a detailed story. We can't stop.
How does e eink screen work on a game console? The playdate screen is at least 30fps (and can actually refresh faster), even the fastest eink screens can't work at this speed without ghosting, and I don't want slower full refreshes while I'm playing a game.

> Argentina has been in recession for more than a decade.

To the rest of us layman not familiar with your language, they just entered into a recession earlier this year[1]. And on behalf of us laymen, we'd love to know more about the etymology and context of your use of "more than a decade". To the rest of us, that normally means 10s of years, not mere months.

> Sure, but they do it following a certain process.

Which is going to include checking that it doesn't match any OS files.

> You can try as often as you want and analyzing the updated signatures you even get some feedback about your attempts.

As others said, probably only if you can reverse a hash function.
But that's not useful. So you're saying just put on a CMaj13 grip for playing anything in a scale to the OP? On your 7 string guitar?

EDIT: Also you have to be missing at least one note... CMaj7 had 4 notes + 13 ... c e g b + a (the 13th) so CMaj7/13 Add 4 ?

The OP (as I understand it) was wanting to be able to know what shape/grip to use for picking the relevant notes... I'm sure it can be done but you have to also find the position and reasonable shapes that fit the notes in the bar.
I think maybe OP is thinking “populist” generally is a slur for non-social democrat right wing governments these days.
The silver lining is that they do fear the antitrust potential of their appstore and system(s), so this means there's definitely anti-competitive measures going on. If apple knows they dont have any anti-competitive features implemented, they won't have spent this lobby/propaganda money!

Therefore, as a consumer, you should be careful of buying apple products.
Thanks for confirming. Is there any valid reason these updates couldn't be distributed through proper package repositories, ideally open repositories (especially data files which can't be copyrightable anyway)?

How does Wazuh do it, for example in the [AUR packaged version](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wazuh-agent)?
"Truth" derives from experience
I think Crowdstrike is due for more than just "owning up to it". I sincerely hope for serious investigation, fines and legal pursuits despite having "limited liabilities" in their agreements.

Seriously, I don't even know how to do the math on the amount of damage this caused (not including the TIME wasted for businesses as well as ordinary people, for instance those taking flights)

There has to be consequences for this kind of negligence
I don't suppose this implies the end of the social security number as a form of identity access authorization?
I was surprised to read, the other day, that TAE had made a recording of Walt Whitman in the early 1890s. A few lines of poetry, completely audible. (An excellent resource on Whitman, BTW.)

So? Don't run the command for the library manager. No one is forcing you to open it. They are completely independent commands. You might as well complain that all you want to do is list directories but linux only provides coreutils which also includes chcon and I don't want to run chcon.
Wow, a fantastic work. Thanks for posting it.
A developer is much more likely to be able to fix their computer and/or restore from a backup than a typical user is. A significant problem is cascading failures, where one bozo installing malware either creates a business problem (e.g. allowing someone to steal a bunch of money) or is able to disable a bunch of other computers on the same network. It is not that common for macOS to be implicated in these sorts of issues. I know people have been saying for a long time that it’s theoretically possible but it really doesn’t seem that common in practice.
So its inhabitants need to be subjected to injustices for another 50 years?
Maybe I'm dense but why would you expect a government service to not use common tooling available to them?
I didn't say it was entirely a good thing, hence the importance of the PR review process. As I said, I found numerous bugs, sometimes nasty ones that are hard to identify/fix before they got merged. That engineer was building features really fast, however. Maybe it wasn't 1K lines per day every day, but definitely he did hit that mark on some days.

He was surprisingly skilled considering the volume of code and he had a solid understanding of a lot of advanced concepts and nuance so I know he wasn't blindly using LLMs. He did implement features really quickly and bug density was quite low overall.

I'm sure he could have implemented those features using fewer lines of code, but as the team lead, what can I say to a highly motivated 25 year old who is churning out new features faster than the rest of the team combined? Motivated people aren't typically very receptive to generic feedback like "This is great but you should try to reduce complexity"... Of course, I could provide slightly more detailed feedback, but that would be getting into my personal coding philosophy and didn't quite align with the broader practices of the company (a startup) at the time. There were a lot of things that the company was doing, which is standard (most companies are doing the same) but which I don't agree with and which would sound controversial. I could provide strong arguments for my positions, but humans are flawed, and carefully thought out, nuanced arguments that go against conventional thinking often tend to fall on deaf ears... You can only rock the boat so much.

Also, you don't want to de-motivate a highly productive person. Even if they're productive only in one narrow dimension. With me looking over his code, we could keep complexity under control at a maintainable level. Keep in mind, we were a startup in a competitive, growth sector. So developing features quickly was quite important and throwing away entire features to pivot was considered an acceptable risk.
I did have an internal referral from an SPE so it's possible my experience wasn't typical.
Government and industry research labs are still around and do lots of research. Companies with R&D departments also do "R" as well as "D" though it is typically more applied and product-focused.

However, I've also seen independent researchers (Smith Research, Doe Consulting) and undergraduates publish and present work at technical conferences and workshops. There is usually no requirement for an academic or large company affiliation, or a graduate degree.

What is required, as you indicate, is a carefully written academic paper that presents a clearly identified (and "novel") contribution to the field, clear explanation with convincing evaluation, and adequate review of, comparison with, and citation of prior work, in the preferred writing and publication style.

If you're not used to this kind of writing, you might want to see if you can get help from someone who is.
I was just looking at the bcdedit options earlier today, this is doable on Windows
> Instead of fostering innovation and competition, this approach threatens to stifle the very progress that benefits Americans.

How much more can you pervert the truth? It is Apple that's stifling innovation and competition.
5-10 years is not unreasonable expected support I think.

And if you are someone manufacturing physical equipment be it CNC machine or vehicle lift hiring entire team to keep Linux patched and making your own releases seems pretty unreasonable and waste of resources. In the end anything you choose is not error free. And the box running software is not main product.

This is actually huge challenge. Finding vendor that can deliver you a box where to run software with promised long term support, when the support is actually more than just few years.

Also I don't understand how it is any more acceptable to run unpatched Linux in networked environment than it is Windows. These are very often not just stand-alone things, but instead connected to at least local network if not larger networks. With possible internet connections too. So not updating vulnerabilities is as unacceptable as it would be with Windows.

With CNC there is place for something like Windows OS. You have separate embedded system running the tools. But you still want a different piece managing the "programs". As you could have dozens or hundreds of these. And at that point reading them from network starts once again make sense. Time of dealing with floppies is over...

And with checkouts, you want more UI than just buttons. And Windows CE has been reasonably effective tool in that.

Linux is nice on servers, but often with embedded side keeping it secure and up to date is massive amount of pain. Windows does offer excellent stability and long term support. And you can just simply buy a computer with sufficient support from MS. One could ask why do not not massive companies run their own Linux distributions?
Oh great. The crazy guy from the street corner is now following me. I'm so surprised.

Stop harassing me you creepy fuck.
> They protect these many companies, industries and even countries at such a global scale and you haven't even heard of them in the last 15 years of their operation

I certainly don't want to know (through disaster news) about the construction company that built the bridge I drive through everyday, not for another 15 years, not ever!

This kind of software simply should not fail, with such a massive install base on so many sensitive industries. We're better than that, the software industry is starting to mature and there are simple and widely-known procedures that could have been used to prevent it.

I have no idea how CrowdStrike stock has only dropped 10% to the values of 2 months ago. Actually, if the financial troubles you get into are only these, take back what I said, software should be failing a lot (why spend money on robustness when you don't lose money on bugs?)
There was an attempt to standardise what looks like an HTML-subset for formatted emails: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enriched_text

Reimplementing it (well, the CLI program, `finger`) also happens to be the final exercise of Haskell Programming from First Principles, after 1200 pages of glorious buildup from the lambda calculus forward, in case that sells anyone on trying it ;)
BERT is still the most downloaded LM at huggingface with 46M downloads last month. XLM Roberta has 24M and Distilbert is at 15M. I feel like BERTs are doing okay.
Step 4. If this has occurred so many times, it is a hacker attack, targeting the poorly written Kernel driver. (But hey, right now at this election moment, with Trump's beloved company. It could be a show of strength)
For the Apple interviews it was all systems programming stuff, e.g. "implement mmove", "read integers off the wire preserving endianness", etc. Amazon was much more focused on behavioral stuff (i.e. their leadership principles) and system design.

This was for Amazon L6 and Apple equivalent, nothing very senior.
I mean it's technically c/c++ but the runtime is so different it might as well be a completely different ecosystem. Also, there's enough tooling popping up around the concept of avoiding using this ecosystem that it's pretty clear people want more than that.
That's called [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/), which is used even on Linux servers in big corporations. (Largely because it's the easiest way to complete box ticking exercises with Windows servers: once you have it, it's easy to decide to extend it to non-Windows machines as well.)

The binary self-upgrades and runs in highly privileged mode, so it might not be immune from the kind of failure CrowdStrike had here. Though apparently there's at least a way to use a local mirror so you have some control on the updates: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/linux-su...

Back to growth?

This month uptick YoY appears to be driven by their agricultural sector which last year had suffered due to a severe drought.

The IMF just revised their GDP projections down from -2.8% to -3.5% for this year.

Seems a wee bit premature to start gloating.
I do not mean this to be blamey in any way shape or form and am asking only about the process:

Shouldn’t that have been caught in code review?
Yes, several. This is going to be a controversial one... but it isn't nearly as difficult as people make it seem. You shouldn't roll your own crypto libraries, but storing a bcrypt hash of the users password in the database, and then creating a JWT and setting it in a cookie, or create a session table and store a UUID in the cookie as a key to the session table really isn't that difficult.

Personally I think the problem is we are being sold so many 'conveniences'/solutions these days. They want you to think you cannot safely do it yourself, and on top of that, often times it's actually more difficult just to learn how to use whatever API the convenience that's being sold to us, uses.

You are often better off learning what is really happening under the hood, and solving the actual problem, instead of trying to figure out whatever api/tool that is being sold to you as a convenience.
EDIT: to clarify, if you are inexperienced: I recommend learning by implementing both session + JWT auth on a side project, before using hand-rolled solutions in production.
Really? People want to have discussions with other people. I don’t want the output of aggregate data that some tech company worth billions (or the wannabes) might offer. It is truly weird that this needs to be said.
Remote monitoring and maintenance. Predictive maintenance, monitor certain parameters of operation and get maintenance done before lift stops operating.
(Apologies for the rambling comment, this is just a thought I’ve had and this link reminded me of it.)

One interesting way of thinking about the last few hundred years, specifically the growth of individualism, is that it’s a shift of focus from larger social organisms (the family, the village, the nation, etc.) to the individual person’s organism. Which is an obvious description of individualism, of course, but it has sorts of downwind effects that maybe aren’t as immediately apparent.

This occurred to me when I was reading about some life extension organizations trying to make individuals’ lives longer. It’s not about being remembered or honored by society, or about continuing a legacy via a family/business/institution/etc. but about extending your personal experience longer.

If we went back to a different civilization like the Romans, the dynamic was very different. There was much less focus on extending the individual life experience and more focus on being honorably remembered by Roman society. A desirable afterlife was one in which you were honored by society, not one in which your personal experience continued forever.

What is really interesting though is how these two dynamics (individuals vs. groups) will play out in the future, evolutionarily. I can’t imagine that individualism’s limits are endless; at some point group dynamics would become more competitive, I think. And yet at the same time a lot of resources are going into the extension of individual lifespans.

To put this all another way: imagine two opposite societal structures. One is comprised of individuals that live extremely long, focus on their personal experience, and assume they will be largely forgotten after death - partially because of the unpredictability of the future. The other is comprised of people that live shorter lives, are focused more on the social group (and have more kids), and are remembered after their deaths for their contributions to that group. They buy in to this vision because the future is more predictable.

It seems like the last few hundred years in the West has been a shift from group 2 to group 1, but it remains to be seen if that will continue.
I wonder if this is linked to the Azure outage that happened just prior to the Crowdstrike incident.

He made a surplus in the first month because he basically withheld all the money he could and some the he couldn't, to the point that Chubut governor, that is also right wing himself, was threatening to withhold all the oil produced there. Milei lost the battle in courts..

He also immediately faced huge protests when he announced his plans in the first month.

And protests against his policies have being a constant..

https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/argentinas-milei-face...

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/12/americas/protests-argenti...

People did not voted in Milei because they liked him or his ideias, they voted against the other candidate that was the minister of economy from the previous president, and that was clearly not making a good job.

Likely anyone running against him would have won, Milei was just luck to be the one.

And Milei is not even the first right wing president in recent times, they had Mauricio Macri that is from a center-right party, in the government from 2015 to 2019. Macri did as poor of a job dealing with the country economic problems as all the left wing governments previous and after.. Milei is managing to do even worst..

My guess is that as happened with Macri in 2019, Milei will is unlikely to be elected for a second term or to elect a right wing successor if he decide to not run again himself..

In fact, i doubt he would win again in a election held today..

> A 2022 poll conducted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce found that "70% of voters oppose Congressional proposals to add new antitrust regulations." Even more, when reading descriptions of the policies included in the American Innovation and Choice Online Act, 79 percent of Republicans, 72 percent of independents, and 59 percent of Democrats said they would oppose the bill.

The seasoned critical reader of political pieces will detect a smell here.

My (very unprofessional) guess here is that investors in the near term will discount the company too heavily and the previously overvalued stock will blow past a realistic valuation and be priced too low for a little while. The software and company aren't going anywhere as far as I can tell, they have far too much marketshare and use of CrowdStrike is often a contractual obligation.

That said, I don't gamble against trading algorithms these days and am only guessing at what I think will happen. Anyone passing by, please don't take random online posts as financial advice.
