Thanks for this. My point is proven.

I'm not going to spend an hour trying to distill the AI-slop to find out what potential golden nugget may lie in there. It's impossible to judge the content if it's buried under a landfill. "If you won't take the ti

I have to admit that 3.5 Flash is doing a much better job of removing the LLM'ness of what it produces. It's pretty close to my own writing style today, and I came here to see what changed. For what it's worth, my own persona

Not defending this person, but it's obvious that this person used Github as a file-sync. Firefox-passwords.html and firefox-bookmarks.html are what you dump before migrating to a new computer and importing them there. An old school pra

Thanks for saying this. I live in a small, bleak, brown town just recovering from winter, and even despite this, getting out into nature and staring at the water flow past in the local river gives so much benefit. Reading this article is a

I just love it. This calms me in a way I can't put my finger on... something about not needing to endless scroll and choose based off a thumbnail and endure an intro and like-and-subscribe please. It's just there. It removes a bun

The cybernews article does have some screenshots showing names like “idmb2c” … also that IDMerit was contacted in November and the ports were closed a day later.

Makes sense if the ID verification process involves scanning a driver license or passport. Edit- rereading this, you’re obviously talking about scale. The original article is much better : https://cybernews.com/security&#x2F

Thanks for the reply. "They" is exclusive. "We" is inclusive. One goes with the other. The point I was getting at was that when you use that language in a discussion it comes off as if you are directly involved, rather t

I really encourage you to avoid the language of "they" and "we." It's a discussion, and it doesn't need to be an attack of which you are putting yourself on a side, or as you put it, binary thinking. As written

This is part of the game. Many games will not be solvable.

Working on the systems/security/infrastructure side, we can already do this. Endpoint management systems already report wifi-ssid, internal-IP, whether you are using a vpn to try and hide info. SASE/ZTNA solutions provide loc

I disagree. I love and miss this style. Old Car and Driver articles often had the same flair. It’s not always about conveying the information but how we get there. I would love to find more long form, flair writing like this.

My God I havent struggled to contain laughter in a public place like this before. Thanks.

I know this won’t enrich the conversation much, but here’s a Reddit link to the comments showing “normal folk” reactions to a QR code on a door. https://reddit.nerdvpn.de/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/1gg37...

Barkley has a time cutoff so I think the point is valid.

I love the analysis. But I hate that the 'fixed' email ends up being wordier for no reason at all. Brevity has value. Having to bloat content (an email to get past anti-spam; a cooking blog to rank better within Google SEO; ...) b

I shouldn’t speak for Bram or ICCF but can point you to the financial docs which give a great explanation https://iccf-holland.org/iccf.html From KCFs perspective where I worked, during my time there, I fundraised my salary

Personal anecdote: I had lived and worked in southern Uganda with a Canadian organization called Kibaale Children’s Fund (now Kuwasha). One day Bram came by our location. We talked a bit - someone told me he was influential and “worked for

I don’t really get it. How is this better (or needed) when compared with MilkDrop?

I like the idea. Your description on the website is missing the explanation that the final step is the service provider verified the records via email/sms. I think one challenge always faced is dns propagation, creating your record and

This is going to change everything for me. Thank you for this software! Exactly what we need for our in house monitoring and alerting.

Hello from Vancouver! I am passionate about movement, but recent injury is preventing that. My new focus is trying to find connection between what I can currently do and what brings joy. It’s a hopeful journey of rediscovery. Thanks for the

Hmm. Searching “baby” returns nothing but references to Babylon. Not sure why this was my first and only search, less clear why it is doing partial text matching.

I saw the tweet a few mins after it was posted (thanks to the original article here on HN). We are a small startup and made the call to treat this like an exercise in failover process and ripped Okta out from our systems in around an hour.

I came here to say exactly this. A Google of "Conduit" gets every competing dictionary's take on the word. A search on "conduit software" gets you nothing but frustrated posts of people trying to remove conduit malw

I haven't seen anyone mention this critical part of the flaw - if you disable the root account, then log out and log back in, the root account is active again. Password change is the only protection until it is patched.
