The Iranian regime would absolutely use nukes as soon as they have two or more weapons ready. Just as they have launched countless attacks against civilian areas in many of their neighbor states in the past 2 weeks,…
There are not even 7,000 Mossad agents, period. 7,000 is the highest estimate publicly available for the TOTAL number of employees in the Mossad, and 95% of them are not agents - just like most US intel are not field…
Iran was well on that path anyway. The US strike absolutely did turn Iran from a peaceful actor with no interest in nuclear weapons into a regime bent on acquiring nuclear weapons.
I used to think the same way, and I loved UBNT. Sadly, after 2 different more advanced configs I had caused wild stability issues - affecting APs, a USG and the controller itself to the point of making them less…
Storage will never work. Quote me on this. Nuclear or a mix of nuclear and renewables will be the only way to seriously get away from fossil fuels. Also, even if storage works some day, hoping we manage to discover how,…
That works for some types of code and fails for other types. If you have very long lived but memory heavy apps, allocations really matter...
At a former team, we went from spending quite a bit of time on code style comments and disagreements to spending no time at all on it, with the simple act of making the code linter a breaking step in our CI build, and…
The difference between theory and practice, is that in theory there is no difference, but in practice - there is. So far, every "provably secure design" I've seen ended up being insecure in practice due to the things…
For enterprises, it's hard to have a ton of different tools. I worked at a very large software company, and our security tech stack was so big and convoluted, that just maintaining a compliant CI/CD pipeline was a 5…
Those aren't cheap, but rolling your own usually isn't any cheaper. Even huge enterprises usually buy instead of build because it's cheaper in both the short and long run. Think about most managed cloud services - you…
I work at one vendor currently and have worked at a few prior. The difference is astounding - my previous gigs, including one of the biggest vendors ever was exactly as you said. My current gig is exactly the opposite -…
You're right that a generator must be taken care of, but a truck with an inverter is very different from a generator if you plan to power something significant. The truck+inverter will probably keep your fridge and…
Does Google really have Android though? Android is open source with a flexible enough license that if Google ever tried to tighten their grip too much, they'd lose the dev community quickly. They own the Play store and…
I totally agree. It's also great to see how with a little technical know-how, you can avoid paying 100s of dollars for some IoT tech that is reliant on more people buying overpriced hardware for it to work in the…
> These chips are intricate enough to potentially contain backdoors. While it is something I never thought about with respect to Espressif, it does seem plausible that they could be a target. As the old saying goes,…
Good luck getting around what extremely well paid lobbyist will do. This country sadly has been corrupted by money.
Then they should demand higher wages. And if that's too high a cost for the restaurant - they should raise their prices or close their business. Tipping does not make sense, and makes even less sense for takeout.
You do realize this is exactly what /tmp/ is expected to do on all *nix based machines, including Macs, right? Why not create a new path, and use that?
Isn't this a prefect recipe for a super-bubble? When you help people with the down payment this much, wouldn't basically everyone try to apply to enjoy appreciating property values, driving demand and prices ever…
It's a little more complicated - in AAD, the app developer has a single app registration, which is the app side of AAD. The app can ask for certain permissions, specify trusted sign-in URLs, manage client secrets, etc.…
The really cheap stuff actually doesn't even have a power supply! There's a breed of LEDs that takes straight AC and rectifies it using the LEDs themselves. By using a large number of tiny LEDs in series (typically in…
If you're willing to share your design, I'm sure there are other folks like myself who think this is a cool idea. I've wanted to do PoE (or passive PoE) for lights for a while now...
I have worked on a project where we integrated with AAD for auth. One of our developers did things that looked fine - used the common Asp.NET middleware for AAd, configured it, used the latest version, set authorization…
There's little doubt in my mind we're not yet close to making self-aware models or anything of that nature, but I think it's hard to deny we're getting closer at an incredible pace. The most telling metric to me is not…
We also used to write code in low-level languages, and system designs were simpler compared to our current approach of writing a lot of stuff in JS and using Electron everywhere, having a huge dependency tree and in…
