The biggest problem with MITM is not interception it is potential manipulation. Despite being a clear violation of your constitutional rights we must look beyond this at what is clearly the bigger issue: can we trust the legitimacy of any information encoded into a digital form when organizations such as the NSA and FBI have immense amounts of power to tamper with connections. Evidence can clearly be misrepresented, manipulated, or even planted on unsuspecting Americans by our government or other foreign governments.

I believe the problem here is that systemd can be introduced to a "non default" Debian system via package requirements, whereas they hope to prevent that in Devuan.
Hmm. This article refers to the data centre as an "Apple Factory" and misspells Tim Cook's name.
I believe that too, especially in early stages.

The switch from 2.4 to 2.6 had a lot of changes and a lot of programs needed to check the version to see which behavior to use. There are two ways to do that shown below in psuedo-python. This first way has no trouble with 3.x versions.

if kernel_version.startswith('2.4.'):
DO_A
else:
DO_B

On the other hand, if you check for 2.6 instead of checking for 2.4... Well when it encounters 3.0 the code falls back to 2.4 behavior.

if kernel_version.startswith('2.6.'):
DO_B
else:
DO_A

Sadly a number of binary only RAID tools don't really get updated much and have these problems. There is a program in util-linux named uname26 that you can run these tools under which gives them the 2.6.40+ version numbers.

This is just one of those tricks operating systems have to resort to from time to time, its like how Microsoft is skipping Windows 9 because of how many programs execute version.startswith('Windows 9') and assuming that means Win95/Win98.

Usually, the energy company is already producing both energy by both renewable and non-renewable means. You can pay them to say that your energy is only coming out of the renewable side. This does not really affect anything in the actual energy production, it is just bookkeeping. It's still fed into the same power grid. The only real way it affects the energy production is if the demand for renewable gets high enough that it exceeds the actual renewable production.

I'm pretty much abandoning linux due to systemd and the fact that a tiny group of people have basically forced it on everyone despite few people wanting it and huge objections.

Can you tell me exactly when text files have started being "crappy"?
While aspects like 3rd party manufactures is disturbing, I'm surprised by the notion that successful companies move beyond Etsy.

Etsy seems like a small business incubator. It provides, at a reasonable fee, a working environment conducive to growth. You have forums and other communication mechanism to train with others. You get the ability to have the e-commerce headache serviced. You get a known location that customers arrive at looking for their special things. At some point all of this infrastructure is limiting. You leave the small business incubator for a more custom environment.
We've never filmed or streamed content from DC4420 before, mainly due to the size, venue, and nature of the event.

I think it would be worthwhile asking them to give the presentation again in the future at an event that is set up for filming/streaming. Unfortunately that won't tie up with SSL Week.
I've found service files much easier to tweak then init scripts. When 90% of all init scripts become a single line exec command, there's not a lot to go wrong.

JSON document stores, while providing higher performance
and richer functionality (such as native joins, and ACID
guarantees instead of BASE consistency)

Seems too good to be true.

The performance impact of inserting/fetching multiple rows per object, multiple SQL joins for a single logical join, etc. would probably be significant. And indexing these tables seems to require indexing every name/value pair, not just the interesting fields. And, of course, the overhead of the translation layer itself.

Also, are relational native joins and ACID guarantees still available at scale?

> Some people claim SystemD is not in line with unix philosophy

One example of this interpretation - we can no longer reliably use `netstat -nlp` to determine what process is responding to requests a particular socket. In certain configurations, `netstat -nlp` will show systemd owning the socket, not the process who receives and responds to the process.

e.g. Systemd will own port 80, and feed it back to Apache who listens over 8080.

To determine who will truly respond, you need to know the proper systemctl incantation, or find the configuration file (there are 8 locations across 3 folder hierarchies where these can live[0]).

Good points. We usually prefer to keep the lead developer responsible for all the project's architecture needs. This is more of a role in case the lead is not able to --from early on-- oversee the technical complexity of the project.

Thanks!
Probably not. The moon has a mass of about 7.34e22 kg, the minimum distance from the moon to the surface of the earth is about 363,104 km, or 363,104,000 meters, and the constant of proportionality for gravity is G = 6.673e-11 N m^2/kg^2, so the attraction between the Earth and a 1kg object on the surface of the Earth is 3.7e-5, or about 8.3e-6 pounds force. That's not much to work with.

(Did I do that right?)
By tiny, do you mean majority of distribution maintainers?
And every affected computer would be a separate count, so that individual would be looking at a minimum sentence in the millions of years.
This snippet (from the PDF) reveals the effectiveness of the technique:

"To evaluate the first algorithm for distinguishing routes we recorded reference profiles for several different routes. We used a dataset of 43 profiles for 4 different routes about
19 kilometers each. Driving in different directions along the same roads (from point A to B vs. from point B to A) is considered two different routes. We perform a leave-one-out
cross validation, each time using one of the profiles for testing. Figure 5 is a confusion matrix, which shows a high success rate in classifying the routes. The achieved successful classification rate in this case was 93%."

So, given a bunch of known routes (like a stretch of highway), this algorithm is able to match your phone's battery-usage signature to one of those routes, sort of like how a service like SoundHound is able to identify a piece of music based off of a few seconds' recording.
This is really selling a quite interesting intellectual effort on meaningless paranoia. Who would have any interest in tracking people in this manner?

Any government based group can grab the data much more conveniently via the phone towers. Anyone else? Well you've got to trick someone into downloading this thing, so it's probably not that good for targeting a specific individual.

If you can think up some nefarious scheme which involves grabbing lots of peoples locations, just get permissions to use GPS or cell location, way more apps have that privilege. I'm not sure what you do with it afterwards though.

New research reveals people can be tracked just by watching where they go...

Plenty of people have been pardoned without being charged, tried, or found guilty; the most well-known example being Richard Nixon.

I suspect the difference in gravity between when the Moon is overhead (or at the nadir) and when it is sideways would be much less than the effect of the constant small tremors that would be felt if the object was set on solid ground.

Maybe a kind of low-pass system would allow it to react to slower change and ignore the higher amplitude, higher frequency of the tremors， though.
You're moving to openbsd so you'll have a more hands off system? Good luck with that.

Same here. With everything going on with government spying it is totally realistic to expect Systemd is being forced upon Linux to open up new entry points into the OS. This would have been a crazy conspiracy theory five years ago but it's the new reality.

10 Business Courses You May Have Missed in School
I really like the product idea. The name, not so much. I understand that you'd like the capitalize on the current 50 Shades of Grey hype but that will eventually die down (quite frankly I hope sooner than later because I think the film's success can at least partially be attributed to the same kind of prudishness that caused your problems with Betalist).

Though I have no particular experience in that industry I have a feeling that you can forget about most 'traditional' techy / startupey marketing channels for this kind of product. Techcrunch covered a few sex tech startups in the past though I'm not sure if their attitude has changed since they're owned by AOL.

Twitter could be another option, even porn stars and callgirls / callboys seem to be allowed to market their services there.

Otherwise, you just have to get creative. Try to get local news coverage or hold presentations at tech / design / startup conferences (if applicable).
I guess. I just know in my house, the downloads of Apps, Maps, and Photos are really small compared to Video -- streaming video is +90% of our house's bandwidth.

I think it's a blend. "Fake it till you make it" is a valid strategy in my experience, but only works if you genuinely want to be good/get better. You still have to eventually "make it" though otherwise you will run up against someone who has made it and they will see right through your faking.

I think the arguments for or against keeping full time architects on staff versus having developers who also work together to design out systems are the same the argument for or against separating out internal systems and test automation from regular developer roles. For example googles SET, STE & Engineer roles.

Personally I like more integrated teams and believe a good architect should be down in the mud writing code half the time in-between designing things out. Partially because technology keeps changing and you need to keep an eye on developments and partially because it's a shame to waste that big picture understanding when tacking debugging or designing out specific components, and partially because it's important to keep an eye on cod equality.

I've done the architecture thing both ways however, throwing design notes over the fence versus designing and helping with implementation, and honestly they both have their pros and cons.

Tighter integration reduces communication problems and wasted effort. On the flips side having individuals focus on producing what they produce best can be more efficient then forcing team members to wear multiple hats. For the same reason why a country much better at growing expensive widgets and slightly better at growing gaskets than another country should focus their production efforts on widgets while the other country focuses their production efforts on gaskets.

The major problem in my own humble opinion with the separating out the architecture discipline is that once you step away from the code you're basically kicking off a countdown to the point where your understandings of the technologies involved and current practices and tools doesn't match up with reality. Which impacts your quality as an architect.

You can say similar things about technical project managers, general managers and ctos who no longer code,
It's a direct response to the original post, visit the link at the start. The point is answering the points raised in that product owner's post.

My point is that product owners should stop telling developers how to do their job, especially when the "advice" they offer is without value at best, and at worst insulting.
"Crappy" in the sense that every piece of network has its own file format, which is parsed by different tools.

>Why can't the HDD vendors publish a md5/sha1 hash of the firmware so we know what the value should be?

Because the only way to actually verify the hash of the firmware is to connect to the drive's controller outside of the firmware's control with something like JTAG or a direct dump of the flash. Otherwise, the PC would send a command to ask the HD firmware what it's own hash is. The compromised HD firmware can then simply respond with a published vendor hash.

Samba remote execution vulnerability (CVE-2015-0240)
I'm not so sure about that. Within a few weeks of the Time Warner/Comcast merger announcement (which has still yet to occur), I closed my Time Warner account and opened up one with the Verizon.

(writer of the blog post here) Interesting, can you divulge a bit more about where and when you did FC research? Was it academic or for a manufacturer?

You are absolutely right; PEM FCs - and I glossed over this in the blog post, might want to readdress it in a future part - are the only portable-enough technology for fuel cells and they inherently come with this ion transport problem and by extension cooling problem that is just unsolvable. Which is essentially the root cause of the complexity of an FCV.

Anyway, I feel your jadedness. Until I actually worked with fuel cells, I had absolutely no idea. Nobody had adequately conveyed to me how these things work and what goes into actually building FCVs. Things finally started to click in my head when we had an electric kart on batteries done within days after completing the frame, yet it took many months until the fuel cell worked. And this was a pretty ready-to-go fuel cell in most respects (Hydrogenics HyPM8).

I was too young back then to appreciate how long FC tech has been 'just around the corner' in the media. Now I understand. I built an FCV 7 1/2 years ago! And they're still pretty much at the same point. I wish things were different because I love the tech, but nature wins this time.

I agree completely. I helped a store migrate from Etsy to a custom CMS because they had outgrown Etsy, and they did so in about a year. Etsy would do well to pivot their marketing from Handmade/Craft to Small Business Incubator. Or maybe they have and that's what all the butt hurt is about.
I'm not abandoning it because of systemd specifically but the whole Linux boot/init stuff is hell and the platform is death by a thousand papercuts when something goes snap. That's reason enough on its own. I recently had to rescue a CentOS 7 box with failed mdadm RAID1. Between grub, md, initrd, LVM and systemd it was three hours of hell. This was due to an md failure causing corruption on a mirror disk rather than a physical disk failure as well.

Windows and FreeBSD with ZFS are beautiful in comparison. I've come to recommend those over Linux these days.
But that if the battery discharges exactly the same. I think that is not the case, for example the battery when is at 50% might discharge (doing the exact thing) differently than when is at 20%. Maybe the battery is not well calibrated or the internal part of the battery are more wasted than others.
