Sure, you can do whatever you want. That doesn't change the fact that people will consider u a prick and a coward if you ignore calls for weeks on end without any explanation.

meh... I'm a Linux Ops person, and I shift between Linux/Mac/Windows all the time, depending on what I'm doing at that moment. Sometimes Linux is a PITA (ever tried setting up Bluetooth on it?) so I end up using my macbo

thats no longer true. Now-a-days, ICOs ask for all kind of KYC documents - passports, utility bills, etc.

The amount of negativity towards the cryptocurrency space on HN is staggering. Even worse is the fact that a lot of comments are coming from people who obviously have no clue how the whole ecosystem works. I guess a lot of them are bothered

I am making a choice to believe them that it is not a scam. You can only know if their statement was true or not after the fact. We all make choices like this daily on regular basis. However, its apparently appropriate to be scammed into va

A lot of people seem to suggest that some kind of regulation, or even outright ban, of ICOs is necessary. Apparently in order to prevent people from loosing their money on risky investments? I don't really understand why it is appropri

The idea of Bitcoin replacing fiat is a vision, not a plan. People assume, or just like to believe, that as Bitcoin adoption grows, the advantages of Bitcoin will far surpass fiat and people will gradually start moving to it as a de facto c

Honestly, I tried really hard to attribute this to stupidity. But this level of stupidity and negligence is really beyond my understanding.

This might as well be a scam created by the CEO himself. I mean, who in this 'crypto world' would be stupid enough to use the same, previously compromised, password on all his accounts? P.S. there was a story on reddit (can't

hmm most SOHO ISPs charge a flat monthly/yearly rate, so that point doesn't really stand.

I'm kind of amazed how Filecoin managed to create such a hype, even though its nothing more than a whitepaper right now. I mean, there are already 2 or 3 coins that are doing something very similar and already have at least a working p

Now that this is on HN I bet their error log monitoring is going to go berserk. There's probably an Ops guy trying to figure out where all the 404s are coming from :)

I've never been to the US. I'd love to visit though, so many beautiful places to see! I had this idea to rent an RV on the west coast and spend a few months visiting bunch of places. But lately I've been deterred by all this

Huh? Its not reasonable to expect automated password rotation for all shared secrets, especially for external services that a team could use. Some passwords will always need to be rotated manually.

by crypt1d 9y ago
The whole point of the discussion was to highlight a feature that I was missing here - ability to audit who accessed what. There will always be a person with admin (or master password) access who can edit logs or bypass them entirely, but t
171.
by crypt1d 9y ago
Thats the whole point of audit logs. You lookup the passwords he accessed and only rotate those (vs rotating all of team's shared secrets because you dont know which ones he used/saved/etc).
172.
by crypt1d 9y ago
Thats why password managers that do support audit logs (normally) do not provide this kind of mechanism of manually decrypting the file. The only way of accessing passwords would be through whatever interface they came up with.
173.
by crypt1d 9y ago
Looks nice. Unfortunately I would never use it for teams as it doesn't have audit logs. These are very useful in case a user is compromised - you can lookup which passwords he accessed and only change those. Same goes if the user left

Yes, IT sec is sort of a rabbit hole. There is always another attack vector right under. If its not software, then its firmware, if its not firmware then its the chip..etc. Normally, you would consider where the biggest risk is and set up y

Yes they could, but that would (usually) assume that I'm being targeted specifically by law enforcement. They could also access my data this way, but yet they choose to inspect my phone physically, on entry. What I'm more worried
176.
by crypt1d 9y ago
I would consider any device that's been through an inspection as potentially compromised as they could theoretically install a backdoor and access ur data later. Maybe just using some kind of a burner phone is better.

Its mostly RX series that are being sold off and the reason for that is the ever-increasing Ethereum DAG size. I dont know the specifics, but due to the DAG size the ETH hash rate on AMD RX400/500s is starting to slowly drop, and will
