I presume though that the mentioned fix only installs the terming for the user, rather than system-wide. I don’t see how that’d be rude (assuming it’s some non-root user that you should reasonably be considered to have…
Exactly. What factors limited tech debt before? Mostly two things, I’d guess: velocity, and Good Practice. And I’d guess that the former plays at least as large a role as the latter. So if you then unconstrain velocity,…
I remember RHEL being quite slow with copyfail as well. It'd be nice to have some more comprehensive statistics though. And I don't put a lot of faith in container scans as a metrics. (More properly, I don't have faith…
Good example. There is simply a long tail of things that are valuable to static sites that HTML can't/won't provide. Some other examples from my simple blog: - Using buttons/links to seek to specific times in a <video>…
Sure, for the most static of static sites. But without JavaScript you can’t even do basic things client-side, such as having some variable-length list of fields in a form. Or customized field validation. If such…
No, but my point that was AI coding changed the balance of a system such that a previously useful heuristic no longer works.
But most bad developers were likely not making a fully-featured, useful mail client. Creating such a mail client was a proof of work, if you will.
In addition to what the other commenters say about electricity generation, heat pumps are more than 100% efficient. So using an incandescent bulb as a resistive heater loses there too.
> TPM signatures are only useful for verifying the state of your own computers, and only because you control when and how the upgrades happen. And by “you” I really mean large enterprises with tens of thousands of…
This is very exciting to me. systemd-sysupdate is a very nice building block for delivering updates, but having some opinionated (and secure) repo system that sysupdate can consume would be very, very nice.
The Go team as a whole was not adamantly against generics though, as I recall. Rather, they were against implementations that would have bad overall implications for the language (especially its complexity, both in…
I’m quite happy with RSS Guard. Pleasant and quick to use, plenty of features, and can stay out of your way as much as you like.
Not if the response to the AirPods losing capacity is to replace them altogether.
The world is a big place. Of course it happens. But, colloquially speaking, "getting people's attention" suggests that more than a rounding error took heed. I'm glad your CEO cares. It makes a difference and I hope you…
At best, it would come down to the details of what their marketing materials have claimed wrt to keeping contents secret. Do you have anything concrete they've promised? I don't remember anything, but maybe that's just…
What grounds would the lawsuit be based on? I can’t imagine that slurping any kind of data would be inconsistent with their EULA. The only risk would be the reputational damage. And as far as their bottom line is…
WhatsApp is E2EE, but Meta controls both ends. Instead of reading your plaintext on the server, they read it on the client. Not that tricky. I presume the hardest part would be avoiding detection via decompilation and…
Just like well-publicized data breaches over the years got people’s attention? Color me skeptical.
That’s why I think atproto is cool. It’s the only thing I’m aware of that provides for actually forking a public social network.
Same thing as if something equivalent happens to your VPN service I guess? Switch to another one. Oh yeah crap, you're right about DNS over regular TCP. I totally brainfarted on that.
These things you suggest incur significant latency. Also, can you simply pipe DNS over Tor? I don't see how, since Tor is TCP-only. I suppose DoT or DoH could potentially work, but not all authoritative servers may…
- Personal details isn't the point (and while a VPN service may have those, a big DNS resolver certainly doesn't)--the point is that correlating DNS traffic with your source/home IP address is likely easier with a big…
I don't see how that's an improvement over using a big public resolver. Probably worse privacy (you've basically just swapped your ISP for another virtual ISP), and worse performance (likely longer network paths from…
I don’t honestly see how that’s necessarily better. Now your ISP can tap your individual household to see what’s being queried. Whereas if you use Do[THU] to connect to some remote recursive resolver it practically…
I'm not advocating dual stack either. Like I said in my other reply to you, I am suggesting IPv4-as-a-service using standard translation technologies and architectures.
