DD-WRT Vulnerability, Heartbleed SSL Vulnerability, VPN, and OpenSSL
Background: I grew up in the midwest, lived in London, and now live in SV.

Here's my 2c. The average person in SV is on their 4-5th startup (whether started or early employee), as compared to the 1st-3rd elsewhere (YMMV). Think of it this way - instead of BigCo wasting away money on a new product launch (good example - Microsoft Kin), there's loads of money being poured into 100's of Kin-like products, and only very few emerge victorious. This is only possible because of the massive amount of recycled money in tech startups.

The rationalization of failure in SV has less to do with commercial progress and more about sociological factors. In other words, there is a huge support network of people who have experienced failures, so it eases the pain of it happening to you. Think about going to an AA meeting where there are 100 recovering alcoholics vs one that has 5. The one with the 100 makes it much easier to recover. You get a large pool of like-minded people and can create allegiances/relationships with much more variety. Want to find someone who also failed a Fitness Tech wearable company in Chicago? Good luck. In SV? There's probably one living down the street from you.

Lastly, there is a fair share of fakers here. Number wise, more than anywhere else, but relative to the successes, it's no different than anywhere else. People can hustle their way into the industry with little effort. People rarely check backgrounds here, and there is a winner take all attitude (integrated with a passive, pay-it-forward mentality).

> What is worse is that breaking into the funding market is rather difficult unless you have a success story under your belt.

This is slightly a myth. One thing that is preached here and does bode well, is that traction matters. If you can build something (that people want), get traction (prove they want it), then there is more than enough money floating around to get funding. Is it easier to get funding once you've proven yourself in the Valley? Absolutely. But you'd be surprised to find that funding isn't everything here.

The problem with Googles algorithm change and naïve website owners
Certainly, there are female names that end with "n"! My thought is more along the lines of, perhaps "of all currently male names ending with n, more are strongly masculine (than other letters)"
Websites linked on our CI website are the same website owners that hired sketchy SEO firms in developing countries to place as many links on the Internet to increase the backlink SEO juice, then Google changes their algo and I get angry emails from the very same website owners wondering why I link to them in the first place!

It’s a distraction (I even have the rel=’nofollow’ everywhere on my site) I have a form letter that I send to the website owners explaining that you should really choose your SEO firm wisely next time.

I know this is not Googles problem (except they are not honoring the nofollow) but what do you do to mitigate this?

Sync and share is commodity. The trick is to add value and create APIs that unlock the value of having all your data in the cloud. Right now, the whole space is just a big land grab with many entrants and many different strategies. My money is on Box. They have realized that the dollars are in enterprise and that enterprise customers have a few needs around security and control that frankly noone else can offer.
This is entirely up to the issuing CA's process. Thawte, for example, happily revokes-and-reissues certificates for free (perhaps only for "enterprise" customers?), and the newly issued certificate has the same end-validity date as the revoked certificate but the start-validity date is set to the time of issue.

I notice herokuapp.com's CA is DigiCert, so perhaps they have the opposite policy, of giving the reissued cert the same start date as the revoked cert.

I don't think there's a standard field in an X.509 cert for issue date.

It's possible to download a CA's CRL and look for revoked certs, but all you get are serial numbers and revocation dates, not subject names.

In many other areas of CS (e.g., gaming, language development, DB design), the experts are simply more willing to discuss or enumerate the requirements of the problems they are solving. They make an effort to educate those who are interested in learning.

In security, you have a cabal of self-appointed experts who write inscrutable code and chastise you if you try to improve on it. What does that accomplish other than chasing people away?

These security experts make their livelihoods based on their credentials; they have every incentive to keep others out. At what point do we stop giving them the benefit of the doubt and start educating ourselves? Trust can only go so far.

Interesting story... but just out of curiosity, if there was already the investment made in the codebase for your application, as well as the team in place to continue with the project and maintain it afterwards, was there a consideration to switch to .NET / Windows Server?

If so, I'm curious to hear the reasoning behind abandoning the project altogether and re-writing from scratch (and likely re-interviewing and hiring a different team with different skillsets) as opposed to simply moving the production environment onto Windows...

It’s very interesting to see this being announced now. The space of “native-to-the-web”-frameworks is very noisy lately. I wonder which moves the other developers of frameworks, especially in regards to Web3D games, will make next: Artillery? Goo Technologies? Scirra? Ludei? PlayCanvas? Impact? ...?

There is quite a bunch of free engines already out there: Babylon.js, Copperlicht, CubicVR, TheeJS, ...

The native engine builders: Epic, Crytek and Unity are also adding some more pressure on the game sector in this field with their announcements to also move into the web and alter their price schemes.

Adding more anecdata...my daughter's public school class has names I can't even pronounce - not a single Jennifer, Jessica, Shawn, or Mike ala the names that were popular in my generation. The population of the school is about 40% latino/a, but those kids generally seem to have "traditional" names - Jorge, Jose, etc. It's the white kids that have the funky new age names, both boys and girls. I'd say socio-economic conditions are about the same for all ethnic groups - we live in a poor, rural community. Not sure what can be extrapolated from any of that.

I'm going to nitpick...

>The key insight is appealing to an irrelevant authority.

This is true, but the authority is almost never relevant to forming a valid argument. It's just a shortcut. Take the following:

"X is not Y. I am a subject expert on X and Y."

It may be true that X is not Y. It may also be true that I know everything there is to know about X and Y. However, it's a completely invalid argument. There is no evidence provided about why X is not Y.

If someone questions why is X not Y, providing more evidence of authority does not contribute to the discourse. It is definitely a fatal fallacy if you exchanging in meaningful discourse.

If you are just looking for general knowledge on topics you are vaguely familiar with, receiving knowledge backed by statements of authority is okay. But that's okay because you aren't actually arguing, you are just seeking clarification and knowledge.
Perhaps this goes without saying, but most HN readers are adults and are astronomically unlikely to get Reye's Syndrome.

(In fact, Reye's syndrome was used as an example of something with a "vanishing" baseline risk in a study in Epidemiology recently.)
I had the flu last month (actually tested positive), and the Tamiflu seemed to get me back on my feet pretty quickly. At the same time, my wife took a prophylactic dose and she did not get the flu.

Similarly, 3 years ago, both of my sons and my wife tested positive, all saw improvements within 24 hours of taking it. I took a prophylactic dose that time and did not get the flu.

Anecdotal, I guess, but I would take it again in similar circumstances.

Another huge sin of the US drug war is mixing likely-to-be-abused painkillers like codeine with acetaminophen to lower their "abuse potential" -- but, with junkies not being rational, it leads to abusers destroying their livers.

The same is true of dextromethorphan (DXM), the main active ingredient in cough syrup.

For many naive teenagers, cough syrup is their introduction to recreational drug use because it's available OTC. Unfortunately, most teenagers are also impulsive and can't be bothered to do much research beforehand. Threads like this one below, titled "6,276 mg acetaminophen...am I gonna die?", are unfortunately very common.

yeah all the links are broken. examples are down. even install.html is down.
Come on. You are linking to something that was not even formally demonstrated.

> Epidemiological studies have demonstrated an association between aspirin taken for viral illnesses and the development of Reye’s syndrome.[8] But no animal model of Reye’s syndrome has been developed in which aspirin causes the condition.[9]

It's tiring to repeat it, but correlation and causation are two very different things.
I'm inclined to believe it was taxpayers wasting taxpayer money. If the taxpayers are panicking about H1N1 and demand medicines, that's what the politicians will buy. The system works ;)
A ~20MB bloom filter could have room for 10 million revoked certificates, with a .001 (1 in 1000) false positive rate. Moving either the false positive rate or the number of revoked certificates by an order of magnitude also increases size of the bloom filter an order of magnitude.

For privacy reasons you don't want the browser asking 'is certificate X revoked' (OSCP) you want the browser asking 'give me the latest list of revoked certificates under Root CA X' (CRLs) and that starts to become a prohibitively large download.

"OSCP Stapling" fixes the privacy problem, because the web server is the one asking for the OSCP response, and then caching it and providing it proactively to clients when they first connect.

What we could do is extend the HSTS header to provide a way for the web server to indicate OSCP MUST be Stapled, then the browser can fail hard if OSCP is not provided.

There's still a privacy issue of your browser basically bookmarking every HSTS site that you visit, and probably not providing an easy way to know that happening or clear that out. For example, if I clear my browsing history, should it reset my HSTS lists?

Well, if I were a GM exec, I'd try to get the same stuff on my cars to nip these things in the bud. In fact, I'd bet most execs are looking to do just that. The tech can be used on all cars and it makes sense to use it on all cars. At least, from the shareholder's side. What then? Do I not get to own a car? A 'then move to another country' argument is shallow. As consumers, we still have rights after we buy anything.
Ephemeral keys, sure. Negotiated with... well... who exactly? The person you thought you were talking to, or someone else?

The available solutions are shared secrets with zero knowledge proof (like OTR does), voice verification (like various "secure phones", a web of trust, or CA infrastructure.

Crypto everywhere will improve things immensely, but (repeating myself) ultimately the user needs to understand how they can trust that the other party is who they say they are. So far we do not have a magic (automatic) way to do that for the user.
It's also worth calling attention to Lisp flavored Erlang (LFE), which has come a long way recently. They've specifically addressed language artifacts that would be more welcoming to someone coming from a strong Common Lisp background.

8.1. Cold and Flu

According to meta-analyses on the topic assessing doses of 200mg vitamin C or more, vitamin C has failed to reduce the frequency of colds in the normal population but was successful in reducing the duration of colds (on average 8-14%);[149][145] when looking at studies investigating extreme physical stress (marathoners and skiiers), the risk of getting a cold was halved (which has been noted in past meta-analyses[144])

While Bruce Schnier is taking the overly cautious approach, almost to the point of paranoia lets not assume he's right. There is no evidence this was intentional, and theres no evidence it was exploited by anyone, yet.

I do fail to see how certificate pinning is of any use in this situation since we arent talking about "forged" certs here we are talking about exact copies.
It still obviously does work this way, just very informally. That is, such cabals clearly exist and clearly get early access. If things seem different now, perhaps it's because the timelines are shorter or the cabals more consolidated.

As for "most clueful": I have often lamented the current pendulum swing toward a centralized internet. But this is one area where all the centralization of infrastructure has a benefit. An awfully large fraction of the internet's data is in the hands of a small number of relatively tech-clueful organizations.

How many of Heroku's or AWS's or Akamai's customers would still be unpatched right now if those customers were managing things themselves? I'd put any of those organizations safely ahead of their median customer in the "clue" department.

I'm not going to disagree with your main point though: funding for security is always an uphill battle. When it's working great, nothing happens.
My point is that her tenure in the executive branch extended beyond her involvement in the Iraq War. As SoS, she was also involved in Africa policy, led a push for proactive diplomacy, etc.

I see. I certainly wouldn't think most parents would make conscious decision to pick more 'white' sounding name. I'm more curious about the catalyst that makes certain names take-off in popularity, and hence making them sound more attractive to parents. In your case, I wonder what caused you and your wife to feel that Quinn sounded 'modern yet traditional'.

Quinn as boy's name is uncommon, but its popularity got a nice boost in 1985 and has been on a nice uptrend.

There are two separate parts to this: One is admitting people you deem most likely to succeed. The second is reaching out, enthusing and supporting people from a wide range of backgrounds so that they apply and know how to be successful. This is a good approach, the alternative is positive discrimination.
