I would say that with journaling you're not guaranteed to look back at specific notes, you need somehow to force yourself to do so and have a way of easily finding that specific note at a specific point in the future. Sending a letter

But you could do that with any domain, what's special in this case?

Also duplicity let's you automatically delete backups older than a certain amount of time, what is the difference?

> their content blobs are shared Doesn't this increase the chance of data loss? If a blob gets corrupted, then all the backups referencing that blob will have the same corrupted file(s). This is similar to having a corrupted index i

I think there are national differences here, schools around the world can be quite different from each other.

I'm too young to have ever touched a lisp machine, but I heard many opinions about them. If you used one, could you please briefly share your experience?

You're welcome

I understand your concern. I would just add that, if the main concern for you would be someone finding such a USB key with encrypted private keys and be willing to use a long time to recover them, that's not really an issue: you only n

If you don't trust encryption, I'm honestly curious to hear how you handle your sensitive data. My own opinion is that you're being too paranoid, but it would be interesting to hear back from you.

I'm a Ventoy user but missed this feature. Does anyone knows how it works? Are they packaging one or more hyoervisors together with Ventoy?
704.
by GTP 3y ago
Yes, but too expensive for my taste.
705.
by GTP 3y ago
Well, as in many cases, I think it depends. There are some situations where you can accept errors, but in some others definitely not: imagine you're trying to delete a set of files from a directory that contains other files you're
706.
by GTP 3y ago
Yes, but remember that usually nowadays a piece of software also logs something to stderr instead of relying just on exit codes to signal error.
707.
by GTP 3y ago
Yes, and it's ironic that there's an error in the error handling routine :D
708.
by GTP 3y ago
That's usually not the full error message, and you can still easily find the number's meaning by opening the man page of wathever piece of software terminated with that exit code.

Had the journalist tryied Linux, would have known that it gives much better error messages than some random looking number.

But here rounding is giving you the wrong answer.

Could you please explain me why 2 would be the correct answer?

Exposing the salt isn't an issue, it can (and should) even be a different one for each account.
715.
by GTP 3y ago
Yes, that's true. But since HN is famously hosted on a single not-so-powerful server, that would be unlikely to be the employed solution.

But this also means that they know your plaintext password, meaning that they're saving passwords in plaintext. Given that this is mostly a technical community, it's much more the risk of keeping a database of plaintext passwords

If you just connect to the hosts, I think it's unlikely to hit any serious side effect. And this can be discussed beforehand with the client anyway.

It's likely useful for people doing pentesting.

This is exactly what I thought: why not just save state to a file?

On the other hand, at least in my experience, Windows becomes laggy much sooner than Linux. IMO which of the two behaviors is better really depends on the use case.
