As an American, I regret to inform you that you're trying to use logic to understand a situation where it seems like logic wasn't used (in terms of the economic impact). These are the same fuckwits that tried to claim a trade defi

Yep. The issue is most people I've seen who lean most on these tools do not have that discipline.

I'm waiting for the AI apologists to swarm on this post explaining how these are just the results of poorly written prompts, because AI could not make mistakes with proper prompts. Been seeing an increase of this recently on AI-critica

Yeah, I'd bet their burnout risks aren't going to go away by just replacing k8s with ECS. I also hope they have a good support contract with AWS, otherwise they are going to be in for a fun surprise when ECS has some weird behavio

Maybe it's just me, but it was a bit of a disappointing read when the author decided not to provide any details about what's replacing it. Would have loved to hear a bit more about the decision to move. Although, considering the a

The 11,000 may be limited by the suspension system. So in terms of comparisons I don't think you're wrong, but it might be better to compare it to the F-150 Lightning for more of an apples to apples comparison. The F-150 Lightning

It's extremely risky to use MFA via text messages, due to the commonality of SIM swap attacks. Attacker calls your cell phone provider, executes a social engineering attack to authenticate as you, and can now route your phone calls and

So as I mentioned in another comment, it's not entirely security theater. If the site enforces that an MFA token is truly one time use, then this can prevent replay attacks of your credentials being used to create a new session. If som

Disregarding the other replies for a moment where they rightfully call out that it wouldn't be radar, wouldn't they still need a publicly available API for this data if they wanted to access it outside of their house (e.g., when a

Seems kinda lame that you created a new account just to make this comment. Maybe instead of being mad that a mouse ate your food, get some proper food storage?

I think there are many people who legitimately feel unsafe when they feel uncomfortable, which is an a super unfortunate situation because it makes critical conversations much harder. Even harder when the people delivering critical feedback

This state machine is inherently unsafe for concurrent use, because the CurrentState and Transitions fields aren't completely protected by a mutex. You already have an unexported mutex that you lock when mutating those fields, but then

I think the Supercharger network was a significant competitive advantage. With the news today that Ford will be adopting NACS in the near future for North American vehicles, I do think their EV options will start to become more compelling.

I also don't use the account for anything that could get a suspension. No public user content, not used for SSO, and I don't have anything programmatically accessing my account. I know there's still a non-zero chance of getti

Yeah. I've moved most of my critical stuff off my GMail address onto a Google Workspace account, just sucks that not everything works with a Google Workspace account. I am just hoping that actually paying them money makes it a little l

I've seen many systems that disallow the password reset flow when you sign in via SSO, since the expectation is that you as the service provider are not the authority for the user's identity.

by TheSwordsman 3y ago
Worrying about situations like this is exactly why I try to avoid SSO at almost all costs for personal stuff, and instead prefer to use a username/email and a unique password. I really feel for any developers who are impacted by this,

I think it's a "yes, and..." because it's conceivable that the alert itself could fail to notify pilots for some reason. So the pilots shouldn't rely on the automation to work 100% of the time, nor that the system w

At least where I am in SoCal, AT&T literally just deployed fiber with plans up to 5 gigabit/s. I'm so glad to be leaving Spectrum behind, because when moving here I never thought I'd have a cable Internet provider that ma

If you're talking about the sidecar process I think you're talking about, that thing sorta sucked. It was a great idea, but execution lacked and it caused all sorts of issues as a result. Also ended up becoming sort of abandoned,

Hi. This is my comment you keep linking to. Your understanding of what happened is flawed. I do not have signs that Linode was rooted in that compromise. The signals I do have is that they had their database compromised, and likely secret k
