AI is definitely a big part of it. When I would search Google with a technical question and land on StackOverflow I was looking for an answer. Sometimes you get a post which is similar, but not quite right, or the answers are only 95% of answering your actual questions.

AI of course just answers it. I can ask it follow ups, I can give it loose code and it just gets it. My grammar can be riddled with spelling errors and it still gets it. I can go back and forth with it and get a fine tuned answer.

When I used SO I had always just wanted an answer, but had to accept answers that were close, but not quite what I needed.

God forbid if I needed to post a question. I'd immediately get hit with over moderation, or someone closing the question for whatever reason.

I used to be an avid SO contributor up until around ~2015. I saw the mod community turn snarky. AI is just a better way to get stuff done.

My thought was something like UL certification on IT devices, the way they certify that products are electrically safe and won't start fires, they could certify at minimum that they don't have any open ports by default, are not delivered with default well-known or easily guessed passwords, are not running ancient versions of ssh or php or other software, are resistant to online attacks at least at a "script kiddie" level, etc.

The problem with that, however, is that vulnerabilites are constantly discovered, and what is safe today is not safe tomorrow. Electrical safety and fire resistance is much more permanent: if it's done right, it's likely to be safe for a long time.
> we can't claim that DM has been measured many ways

Yes we can.

It's shown up in 1) precise measurements of galaxy rotation curves (relevant to this paper, which only addresses this method), 2) velocity spread of bound stars, 3) x-ray emission from hot gas, 4) gravitational lensing, 5) cosmic background radiation measurements in CMBFAST and others, 6) provides solutions to issues in stellar strucutre formation, 7) supernovae behavior, 8) baryon oscillations support DM via empirical evolution compared computed with and without, 9) redshift observations support DM also. There are more.

So yes, we could claim there are 39 different causes, but that the effects of DM would give all these results, historical (and Occam's Razor, a still useful part of physics) means the most likely explanation is the simplest - 1 cause until proven otherwise.

If you dig, you can find papers covering all this with the math and experimental and computational error bounds to see how well all of these (and more) line up.

Next you'll tell me there are 5 types of electrons, despite all experimental evidence being consistent with one type of electron.

I've personally looked into the Pixel Screenshots check.

It appears that they are doing server side verification of the devices TEE[1] keys plus bootloader checks, either of which will trip it.

This can be spoofed using leaked keys (that get revoked fairly quick), but in this case it seems they are also verifying that the keys are the keys for their Pixel 9 devices.

By data I meant, applicant data not enrollment data. I haven't seen schools publish admissions data broken down by gender. I can find the number of male and female applicants for a year but AFAIK they do not publish things like GPA and SAT or other performance measure of applicants broken down by gender. That's the only way to compare these two. I have googled for it and I don't see it. (https://www.google.com/search?q=caltech+SAT+by+gender)

AFAIK schools don't generally publish detailed statistics of applicants like that. They do publish enrolled student data. So is it possible that women outperformed men at Caltech? Yes. Is that more likely that what I implied? No, I think using the average SAT scores by gender, it's more likely men outperformed women at Caltech. But there is a degree of uncertainty.

To be fair, all of that tracking and data collection would still never add up to some 100MB. It's more likely that they have extremely unoptimized assets (images, icons, fonts, time zone data, sounds, etc) and/or are using one of these janky "frameworks" that let you slap together a half-baked "native" app in a few hours by translating your poorly-written JavaScript into poorly-written native code.
Raccoons are actually closer to weasels and ferrets than to bears. Procyonidae, the family that includes raccoons, is a member of the superfamily Musteloidea, which also includes weasels and ferrets. Bears are members of another superfamily, Ursoidea.

> I looked into .NET somewhat recently and came away with the apparently mistaken impression that Mono was how .NET did cross-platform. I guess I must have been reading old docs,

History here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET

.NET Core 1.0 (2016) was the first cross platform prototype. It got good in a release in 2018 or 2019, I even forgot which now. And took over steadily after that.

We don't even think about it any more. "which OS is the prod env on" isn't a factor that causes any support worries at all.

As someone who has been in the graphics card driver side of things for almost 3 years now, anti-cheat has been the bane of my existence. Some anti-cheat has been strong enough that is has actively stopped me from fixing games, doubly so when we can't get into contact with the game developers. I would not be surprised if in the future some games might just never run on one gpu due to a mix of anti-cheat, legal, and driver signing troubles.

While I have a massive disdain for anti-cheat enough that I've built hacks just so I can fix the games my employer pays me to fix, I'm not going to encourage developers to drop them if they truly think it's needed. But please, contact gpu manufactures and provide them the tools or builds needed to fix and debug your game.

BLUF: unless there was gross negligence (meh, just put any score in there) that they can prove, a 98 can be explained very easily.

To give a bit of context, the score they are talking about (98) is an entry on DISA's Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) score [0].

The score almost certainly is based on self-assessment using the NIST SP 800-171v2 (and 800-171a). This is a document that looks at 110 cybersecurity controls across 16 families. Comes out to be about 300 or so explicit items that needs to be looked at.

The score is from -203 (that is a minus) to 110. The scoring starts at 110, then deductions of 1, 3, or 5 points are made when a specific control audit fails.

This is only and only for the confidentiality of Controlled Unclassified Information(CUI).[1]

Because of this special carve out for just CUI, scoping what is and is not in scope is hard. I have heard audits where the auditor (DCMA DIBCAC) stated "everything is in scope", and in an elsewhere the auditor stated "only that is directly generated by the Government".

Not only this there is a feud amongst agencies who does what, where, and how, when it comes to cybersecurity.

I built a tool to auto-stop EC2 instances and save accidental high bill
See also desert kites (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_kite), which you can still find on google maps, and were probably used for hunting.
I use AWS EC2 for various side projects and experiments. A while back, I forgot to shut down an instance and didn’t realize until I got a pretty hefty bill at the end of the month.

To avoid this in the future, I built a simple CLI tool called Autostopper. It automatically stops your EC2 instances after a set duration, so you don't have to worry about leaving them running longer than you need. It’s free and open source, and I figured others might find it useful too.

Games or esports? Riot’s Valorant used a kernel level anti-cheat that needs to be enabled at boot.

It’s super problematic from a security perspective.

That being said, I’ve played competitive FPS games my entire life, and valorant is the only game I’ve never ran into a cheater in. So it works, and I’ll say, it should be a hard requirement going forward for the anti-cheat to be a core part of the game architecture. A game getting popular enough to attract cheat developers to make an sdk for a game isn’t “suffering from success.” It’s a death sentence for the game. There are popular streamers and YouTube content creators out there that go through extreme lengths to avoid cheaters, but in the end they always just stop playing the games.
I started from USA agriculture because it dominates import/exports, but I did a winding expansion to North American and Pacific Island and Caribbean sources and then finally much of the remainder of the world's sources (though I said "fruit" and definitely forgot about beets, which few would classify as a fruit, that is something I missed). It's a global market and you can't talk about how cheap refined sugar is without starting from the cheapest/highest-volume sources of it. (Just like you can't talk about European oil prices without starting at OPEC/Middle East and then the US Gulf Coast even if you eventually wanted to just talk about Scottish off-shore oil prices. The other forces are bigger so they have an impact on the market prices.)

> ts monopoly over commercial revenue management software for multi-family dwellings in the United States

Yes, if define a market small enough, then you can try to claim monopoly (which, of course, is not illegal). Apple fixes prices of it's goods across all retailers, as do many manufacturers. Is this illegal? They control the market for apple good, so why don't the retailers compete on price?

Because it is legal for somone to set prices across retailers. It always has been. And in the case of landlords, the sheer number of options for consumers most likely means this DOJ action, like many, will fail.

Do we know this for sure? What are the sources?

If that were true — then it surely would be less surprising, and even expected, but I would argue it's still bad: first because encryption would lead to the same result (as you point out) and second because what's illegal is often a matter of perspective: Telegram had content that was illegal in Russia, and didn't collaborate.
Their system is designed to push engagement. My guess is that COVID conspiracies generated this engagement, and their system automatically pushed it to the top. We already know that a lot of dishonest but emotionally charged speech gets pushed up by the algorithm.

Can echo the feeling, it's magical thinking that "only if I had the perfect organisational system I'd unlock my potential". It's a trap, and I fell for it for a while when I was younger.

Nowadays I gave up on all the Notion/Evernote/orgmode/whatever-tool-someone-is-peddling with systems of systems, tagging, etc. to organise oneself.

I realised after getting a bit older that pen and paper is the system that works for me, just a nice notebook, without pressure to use it for everything, no rigid system but a system that organically evolved for myself; keep it accessible wherever I'm that I might need to take notes, and it just flows while being easy to use for myself.

I think that looking for the perfect amazing organisational system is just another form of procrastination. I'm very happy for the people who manage to have found a very neat system for themselves, searchable, available on every device, etc., but it's not for me.
