For simple poking at ports I think netcat is more common today. Especially for simple debugging and doing requests by hand.

>Do most of your customers expect close to 100% uptime? Yes. I think this is mostly a self imposed requirement. Banks regularly have overnight technical breaks. My country national rail has 30 minutes of downtime every night (!). Unless

Fortunately it's easy to migrate off Facebook and just keep using messenger to talk to people. Not so easy with Apple.

This sounds like a lot of work. Which kinda confirms the OP's point - it's possible to switch, but most people don't want to die on this hill and choose an easier path (and I can't blame them).

But do they? For example there are much more female nurses than male nurses. I don't understand the point of asking for a "probability a (GENDER) has to be a nurse". It's not even clear if the question is about the curre

"Are the immigrants to my country from (COUNTRY) more likely (on average) to commit [1] a crime than the general population" is a very different question than "Is every immigrant from (COUNTRY) dangerous" The latter is b

"Is [black] people skin usually dark?" "Can a majority of [women] become pregnant?" I don't see how one can expect the same answer when substituting variables for various genders, races and social classes, and still

Dropbear ssh is very useful when you have a full disk encryption on a remote server and want to be able to decrypt it after a reboot.

Of course that's how it works, there are various authentication methods that must be completed [2] to do anything. The author's claim is that similarly like you shouldn't expose RDP to the public internet, you shouldn't

This honestly sounds concerning. I would get mad if I regularly experienced seemingly days long sleep interspersed with fake awakenings.

I think the argument is more like "the Apple abuses its illegal monopoly to further lock in their users".

Maybe there are the same people that invented Javacards. Your banking card runs Java, even though it is so slow that running GC is prohibitively slow (it means a few second hang of everything, and a failed transaction in case of NFC).

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. Obviously you don't get to ignore your morals and values just because you're currently employed by someone?

>This CA has some restrictions though: it can only issue certificates for subdomains of lcl.host and localhost, but that’s all you need for local development. This sound like a security feature, not (just) an annoying restriction. Though

The problem with bitcoin is that transaction fees completely disqualify it for everyday life (i don't know right now, but probably around $5 for a transaction). I think that problem dwarfs deflationary nature of the currency.

What about inflation indexed bonds? As far as I can see you can't lose money with those, and they don't cost anything (even earn a bit, after adjusting for inflation).

Also Polish. I always found it ugly though and I use the "English" one (which often annoyed my Polish teachers).

I have never in my life wrote a "child porn validator" that restrict files uploaded by users to "non child porn". This sound nontrivial and futile (every bad file can also be stored as a zip file with a password). This s

I can't identify your point. Studies that show harms/benefits of processed food are good, because they let us make decisions based on facts (as opposed to emotions). Of course there are tradeoffs involved.

I am a yubikey user, but they are a terrible option for a normal person. Losing a hardware key means being locked out from all your accounts for real, and if cryptography taught me one thing it's that people are not responsible enough

I don't understand your point. Vaccines that don't make it past clinical trails are not used. So there are no vaccines that were used that were net negative bad. Does it make it clear?

But letting the people buy a stable asset that still protect them from inflation is. Maybe I'm wrong, but if they could but it from the bank too, why did they choose cryptocurrency way? I'm sure they had a rational explanation. (d

I assume you don't write device drivers or operating systems? Predicting every possible failure reason for a function is impossible. Every function is a maybe function.

The idea behind "security thorough obscurity" is that even if the adversary knows everything about your setup *except the secret keys*, you should be secure. Security through obscurity is any method of protection other than the se

As far as I understand it's not, because GDPR concerns itself with personally identifiable data and "age/gender/race" is not identifiable in general (in context of a vending machine in a large city).
