I don't think this is enough information to quantifiably say that your issue was caused specifically by the Stealth protocol itself and nothing else.
That was my initial reaction too.

Given it's a security product, you'd want everyone protected on Day 0 that you have a new release, no?

Except on Day -1, no one was protected.

So what's magical about the day CrowdStrike decides to ship an update?

I can imagine there are possibly scenarios where mass-release would make sense (aggressive vulnerability spreading rapidly), but that can't be every day, can it?

I'm ~4.5 years into my career and I'm thinking about doing something outside of the US for my next job. I'm looking to jump in about half a year, so right now is the time to figure this stuff out.

I've got no responsibilities, no kids or SO at the moment, so now would be the perfect time in my career to do something wild. Where do people recommend for culture, outdoors, tech, and /or ease of visas?

For example I was thinking about New Zealand.
It's just sad how the corporate-government complex wastes taxpayer money suing itself. Ripple and the government are two sides of the same scam. One scammer operating a monetary ponzi scheme is suing another scammer for taking advantage of the ponzi to scam other people... Using the tax money of the actual victims to pay for the legal proceedings and/or damages that one scammer did to the other scammer.

Meanwhile, both scammers pretend to be working for the victims... And many of the victims are so f** stupid, they actually believe one side or the other.

I blame Hollywood for brainwashing everyone into believing that every story has a good guy and a bad guy. WRONG. Most stories in our society only have bad guys.
Do they? Really? Numbers? Stats?

Its worth mentioning that congress passed only 27 laws in 2023. You can read them all here, many were for trivial things like commemorative coins or digital duck hunting licences: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/19/us/politics/bills-laws-20...

Delegating is how things get done, surely you wouldn't like the individual details of every single thing you do at work to decided by the C-Suite.
This is so cool! I actually spent the last 3 hours after finding this creating a personal budget for the first time in my life. Basically I just added all my expenses using Claude.ai to help me create good pockets (could be cool integration?). That gave me a good overview of what I was spending way too much on. I especially liked the part where I could have my surplus automatically going into a savings bucket. I realized that my savings would not grow as quickly as I was hoping with my current spend, and the visualization really helped me understand where most of my expenses were going. After that I basically just optimized all my expenses until I got to the savings level I was comfortable with.

So yeah I'm not sure how this is different from other budgeting apps since I never used them, but this was the one that made me actually do that. Thank you so much.
Yeah, and the article explains it too.

Didn't write anything about justification.

Just wrote that typically anyone with power abuses it. And that includes both sides.

I've seen too many movements convinced of their own righteousness and neglect keeping their house in order.

Or have you never seen a group who tolerates problematic individuals (and keeps silence about them) because they're "one of the group"?
Apartheid is the word used to describe practices and policies where one racial group dominates the other. Having legislators or other occupation of the oppressed racial group does not free you from label.

There are famous historic examples of apartheid where the suppressed racial groups had plenty of opportunities as well as seat at the legislator. This includes the Jim Crow South, Apartheid South Africa, and even Rhodesia.

Apartheid is the word used by most people all over the world, including by several countries, international organizations, and even the ICJ. Now it can be argued that the apartheid only extends to the occupied territories (including East Jerusalem), however I—as do many people—would consider that a distinction without a difference, (it is also arguable whether that is true).

> A multi-ethnic society would be the end of the Jews

This is a racist, anti-Arab belief. Unless I’m misunderstanding, you are generalizing over a whole population of people that they are all intolerant, and cannot share society with other people.
No, most operations in the ring directly work asynchronously. The thread mechanism only exists as a fallback for combinations of operations and system configurations (e.g. filesystems) that don't support asynchronous operation.
The US did those things in response to Imperial Japan's invasion, occupation, and looting of other Asian nations. No nuance is needed; Japan was the aggressor pure and simple.

Nobody would ever defend the Nazis as victims yet people come out of the woodwork to defend Imperial Japan, their brutal attempt at colonialism, and the equivalent holocaust they committed. As I've said before, the Japanese sure got good marketing after the war.
i wonder how much of kids technology use today could count as 'play'?

there's a lot of undirected activity that wouldn't count because they're just passive consumers, but surely some of it could count as a way of exercising creative impulses and learning various social norms (even though those are online norms and not real-life norms)?
This is just ideological gobbledygook. No concrete examples of this working in practice.
I don't think tag is an implementation detail generally, for example:

enum Option<T> {
None,
Some(T),
}

The tags are "None" and "Some" which are definitely user facing.

But I see what they mean a bit with the C# example:

union U
{
A(int x, string y);
B(int z);
C;
}

So it seems like "A", "B", and "C" are tags but also their own distinct types, with a implicit conversions between those and the overall union type
So 50 even more diverse standards instead of one you can mostly rely on. Businesses will love that.

(And a supreme court that will weigh in when they desire)
In other words, they failed to do end-to-end testing in some cases. They tested pieces, but not the full system they released.

If you don't test each config update, by definition you didn't test it.

Rust has many nice properties, but it can panic too. You should still test the whole system before each release if it's critical.
It depends on the street. My childhood street was safe, but where I live the delivery drivers barely even brake downhill. It’s unsafe

Any advice for homeowners living in a high water table area besides "move"?

We were a bit naive buying our new construction home. It's the only home on the street with a basement due to the high water table. One year after purchasing, Hurricane Ida hit and we had water up to the door handles in our basement. Our primary sump pump runs constantly for 18 minutes then off for 18 minutes 24/7. We have a backup pump on the other side of the basement connected via the perimeter drain, and a liberty water backup pump. The only addition since Ida is a whole house generator and superior window wells.

During Ida, the street was flooded, the drainage systems were backed up, and there was no where to pump the water to.
theres no point in having sentimental attachment to a browser. back then it was just dominated by a few, its the only reason you used it.

you couldnt care less to switch cause were lazy. very funny thing
computer people do is have such brand loyalty over a browser.

and we turn around and laugh at coke people, ford people, xbox, how silly is it when you hear people arguing about xbox or ps. this is no doubt even sillier

and as a bonus the only reason we say oh firefox has gone downhill but lol ill never use chrome and let them take my freedom and joy never ever... this is again just brand loyalty lol.... if you dont like firefox just switch, if you dont like that switch, if you dont like any browers... well you just have to choose and live with one then dont you. trust me google has all your info

so does apple depending on your phone. and trust that your phone will be your id, wallet, everything very soon. ask asia, we are always lagging in tech, it will happen

That is such a weird graph, because it doesn’t show Mozilla revenue.

On that same timescale, Mozilla revenue went from:

2009: ~80M
2019: ~$800M

That’s a 10x increase in revenue, for an organization already at scale.

It’s totally expected that a CEO of a company generating ~$1B revenue, would be making $2.5M. Heck, there’s FANNG individual contributors who earn that much.

I’ve clearly never understood the gripe in Mozilla CEO pay. Because how are you going to attract top talent to run an organization that big if you paid any less?

Helicopter parents are more about not giving a child room to explore and make mistakes. They micromanage every activity. Those parents are seriously handicapping their childs brain development.
People are generally more willing to do slightly unethical things over really unethical things.

That's why in this case, I think it's much more likely that they will simply move to discussions to unlogged avenues like phone calls or speaking in person rather than edit logs.
Very interesting. I'm fairly young and I have never associated the term engineering with regulation. When I think engineering I just think problem solving.
"I'm not convinced they should be monitoring public discourse or allocating resources based on that monitoring." I have no desire to convince you of this and I definitely haven't been arguing for this at all.

I have no idea what monitoring they should do, just that they do have an interest in knowing major protests in their area.

Edit: put yourself in the shoes of a policeman trying to do your job in the best way you can then ask yourself "should I know when protests are happening in the area I work in and what the general situation is during one?" All I'm saying is that the answer to that question, to me at least, is yes. I don't think police need to entirely stick their heads in the sand in regards to protests. This argument is all stemming from a throwaway line in my original comment and I neither know enough to coherently argue nor care enough to argue specifics of implementation.

> These guys aren’t writing feature proposals the way you write comments.

You’re comparing the effort of a mainstream language design proposal to a pseudonymous internet comment, wow, just wow.

Do you truly know real software developers using any these new features? I must not be working anywhere cool because I’m always having to explain what they mean in code reviews.

Imagine writing a full C# compiler in 2024, imagine if one possibly could with all these different features in this big big language.

> Are you suggesting that these design decisions make it through the entire process and into the language without the feature bringing a clear advantage in its use case?

I’m suggesting they don’t end up being adopted by enough people to be convincing. To me that leads to the shared problem with cpp, feature bloat. Multiple ways of achieving the same thing.

Since you asked, these are the three off the top of my head.

1. Init keyword is strange, why specify an accessor that only seems to apply during initialization? We already have read only for constructors. I always felt initializing objects with brackets (whatever they hell they call it) was something meant for more casual code where assignment isn’t enforced or restricted.

2. Switch expressions are ridiculous. They can get hard to read, alienating non C# programmers who come from C styled backgrounds, part of what made this language successful to begin with. They seem more like yet another syntax sugar we have to learn. And to your Roselyn comment, a language shouldn’t be dependent on Roselyns analysis to actually be usable to the general public. That is not what I’d call a cross platform language, that’s a monopolistic one where Windows/Visual Studio is the only place a not .net fanatic such as yourself can easily get work done.

3. Nullable Reference Types further over complicates what used to be a simple system of reference and value types. On top of the already head scratching nullable value types which made people question why they initially moved away from javas only reference type concept to begin with.

Slightly off topic but we have at least 3 ways to define record types: tuples, structs, and now records. I actually do like record types but unfortunately now existing code bases are polluted with the former. The point I’m trying to make in this last statement is I feel they aren’t careful enough with their proposals. They got it right with records, but look what they brought us along the way.
Yep. "I don't want to put forth the effort of taking my phone out of my pocket so instead I'll talk to a lapel pin and hold my hand out to read a really crappy projected monochrome display" is sorta.... silly.
That would almost be a good argument but the reality is that they cannibalized their core product to increase their revenue but have done so to the point where it no longer remains viable in the market. Alas, the locusts have had their feast and we are all worse of for it.
In an actual prison where gangs and alliances are allowed to form, you'd damn well better bet shitty people on the inmate side would still abuse their power.

That's human nature, and there's power everywhere.
cond is neither an operator nor a statement, it's an expression. This is a demonstration of a conditional expression handling multiple conditions, which GP wanted.

More importantly, pattern matching is not necessary here.
Ben Carson is (or was, likely not practicing anymore, I'd have to check) an acclaimed brain surgeon. I do not intend to diminish that in any way whatsoever.

Carson has also uttered statements in total sincerity that boggle the minds of historians, physicists, and the generally logically inclined. When questioned he's doubled down on "reasoning" that is considered to be anything but.

It highlights that we as a whole need to consider our role models for various peaks of achievement; medicine is a hard degree, it takes epic feats of rote memorisation and recall of thick textbooks, the ability to associate collections of indicators with multitudes of potential causes, the ability to grind and grind hard long hours through residency.

Surgery, for some, is a turn away from diagnostics towards human carpentry .. with no disrespect to surgeons, that's a framing they've heard before and a number embrace.
Funny enough that's how it used to be at restaurants in the 90s in the US. I remember most of the time we'd eat out the server would drop the check off on our table, but then my parents would walk to the counter and pay. It was easier for everyone. I am honestly not sure when this stopped being as common or why... It might even just be that there's not enough real estate space to accommodate it.
That is not a trivial solution. Anything with the word "more" isn't a solution. How much more? how many times a day? It's just hand-waving the problem away.
I value my privacy and use Firefox. Honestly, I have trust issues with volatile “security focused” forks. I feel the risk of them been tampered are greater than the marginal gains.
Homes in greater Boston are definitely not all or even mostly up to code now. My old ~1900 greater Boston apartment still had live knob-and-tube wiring. Fortunately the 1880 home I own now was thoroughly rewired and now more or less in line with the electric code, although it’s still far from modern building code in other domains (plumbing, rafter spacing, insulation, stair rise/run, list goes on).

In some important ways quality was due to the availability of materials, but cheap labor played a big role too. Many building practices before WWII were extremely labor-intensive compared to today. Lathe and plaster walls, knob and tube, board sheathing, fieldstone/rubble foundations, mortise door hardware, etc.
Quoting a previous comment by other user:

> You had this spammy conversation with yourself once already, five days ago. You don't need to tell yourself about your website again.

They look cool. Does it connect wirelessly to the phone?

My advice:

* Wait a full month before reposting, and cross your fingers that everyone forgot about these posts.

* Don't try to conceal you are the author. Moreover, say it explicitly.

* Try to post a technical description of the cards, how they work, what they store, which apps can read the info. And remember to include a few photos and screenshots.

* Avoid language like "absolutely", "to the next level", "real game-changer". "a great a conversation starter". Try to keep it technical.

It must be a relief that instead of unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats interpreting highly technical implementations of vague statutes, we'll now have unelected, unaccountable judges doing it.
Hey Nick, congrats on the launch.

I created an account with the intention of kicking the tires, but I have hit wall after wall and I never actually got to the cool 3D part.

If you take one thing from this message, I strongly urge you to make sure that new accounts start with a sample project in the list which people can play with to see what to expect.

In my case, I don't have a floor plan or know my square meters. I went onto Google images and borrowed a plan to upload. The TL;DR is that it seems like I have to pay $33 to see what this place would look like in 3D, and that's when I bounced. I'm curious, but I'm not that curious.

After the sample project, I hope that you will add a 2-3 minute onboarding video to show people how to get started. Getting dropped into any interface with only a vague idea of what is supposed to happen is a guaranteed way to lose 90% of your visitors to unnecessary friction.

Make it stupid simple to get started. Give people a look at the outcome so that they know what to covet.

I'd agree with you, except... ooh, a new, shiny, untested language / framework / platform to rewrite the codebase in!
Note that the article is from 2013, though I imagine things have only gotten worse for children since then. I think a decrease in family size and number of cousins might also be a factor.

I’m lucky enough to live on a street with a few families with similar age children, and it’s such a difference in enjoyment levels when all the kids are able to get together and play compared to just one or two.

I wonder if we’ll see a rise in popularity of co-op type groups for families with similar mindsets to get together for adult-free play.
Sure, food is contaminated with rocket fuel in the same way that it's contaminated with embalming fluid.

Formaldehyde is SCARY! It's EMBALMING fluid used on DEAD PEOPLE!! Definitely shouldn't be in our drinking water!!!

Clickbait garbage.

Also, "perchlorate" is not a chemical. It's an entire class of chemicals, many of which occur naturally. Is there some perchlorate pollution in the food and water supply? Probably. Does it have anything at all to do with rocket fuel? Sure, probably around 0.0001%.

E: after thinking for a couple of minutes, they probably are talking about potassium perchlorate (I only skimmed the article until the 'zomg rocket fuel' panic). This is an extremely common chemical both in the lab and in all sorts of consumer products, but mainly pyrotechnics. It also doesn't appear to be particularly toxic; it seems to affect iodine uptake by the thyroid, but long term studies seem to be inconclusive.
What's the use case for millisecond-latency streaming? HFT? Remotely driving heavy machinery? Anything else?
I would hope that sometime in the past ~20 yrs Google would have lobbied for those laws to change.

"Cloud" storage should be treated the same as local storage in law.

The legal system should need to present you with a search warrant to inspect your cloud data, in the same way they need to give you a Search warrant to go through your local data.
It depends on what you’re testing. Much of a typical page is visual noise that is invisible to the accessibility tree but is often still something you’ll want tests for. It’s also not uncommon for accessible ui paths to differ from regular ones via invisible screen-reader only content, eg in a complex dropdown list. So you can end up with a situation where you test that accessible path works but not regular clicks!

If you really want gold standard screen reader testing, there’s no substitute for testing with actual screen readers. Each uses the accessibility tree in its own way. Remember also that each browser has its own accessibility tree.
