like I said, if you assume your adversary is the US government then they might as well start issuing rogue TLS certs to target individuals.

I don't think there are many options to host sourcecode and binaries in a way that is safe against an adversary like the US, and especially in such a way that technically illiterate users are protected. Because you'd have to assum

I think GP is talking about a scenario where Microsoft would serve either malicious source tree or binaries to just one user, not all of them. that would be fairly hard to detect. but in such scenarios we'd also have to start asking qu

i can guarantee you npm will externalize the cost of false-positive malware scans to package authors.

the answer to this problem in general is NAT hole punching, but BitTorrent doesn't actually have an answer to your problem. if you are behind a NAT, you can only connect to peers that are not behind a NAT or have port forwarding set up

Presumably they switch UA to Mozilla/something but tell on themselves by still using the same IP range or ASN. Unfortunately this has become common practice for feed readers as well.

browsing code is one usecase. opening issues (and having many tabs of issues open), discussing pull requests is another one. I don't think an SPA would be suited for that kind of content. Discourse might be a counter-example, but they

people complain about character assassination in this thread, but then, what is this supposed to be?

the problem is that react is being used outside of SPAs, for any sort of interactivity, because it is easy to hire for at this point and because there are a lot of existing components to choose from. so yeah, progressive enhancement doesn&#

All of this would be correct in an alternative reality where everybody in the Rust community, including every person ever involved in the language's evolvement isn't aware of these complaints.

This is a popular sentiment that I share to some degree, but I really wish we could just move on from this discussion. It happens in every post that is even just vaguely about Rust or async. It's like reading complaints about the GIL o

brilliant idea. let those governments know who really rules the world. we already have a bunch of dictatorships censoring the internet on purpose, so let's do their job for countries whose democratic processes can't do it for them

this is not what vitalik is saying. he is saying that the output of the algorithm has not been modified after the fact. he explicitly mentions the possibility of vote brigading and fake accounts, both of which are well within elon's ca

this has nothing to do with what i am talking about. the issue is legitimate but there are no news or interesting insights here.

this is a rando spamming the chromium issue tracker. what is newsworthy about this?

I agreed with your original comment but this insistence on "functions never capture environments" is not useful when a really large portion of programmers come from those kinids of languages and are trying to learn Rust. You can i

I have a suspicion that cloud vendors are using bandwidth pricing as a way to deter abuse. Can't use them for ddos, tunneling, file sharing or mass scraping that easily anymore. The lock-in is a nice side effect. Though Corey is talkin

Try just using ripgrep, sed, cut, etc. I found it is good enough for most data analytics I want to do on dumps like these. Particularly replacing grep with ripgrep makes a big difference. If that isn't fast enough, perhaps try feeding

Which content-blocking APIs are you talking about? Blockada just started hosting a DNS server. Google just made it so that blocking decisions can't be made locally anymore and all my used domain names are sent to a third-party server.

Cloudflare automatically redirects any /foo.html URL to /foo, with a permanent redirect. That is certainly not standard behavior, neither on httpd nor gh pages

Site generators hiding it is not a problem for portability. Supporting that redirect is also not a problem! Permanent redirects are. Also, old-school is still the dominant way with how small sites are hosted, in terms of number of hosting p
