Vaccines work - but they are not 100% effective. If an unvaccinated, COVID positive person comes in close contact with 100 people that are vaccinated, a number of them will get sick. Way less than had they not been vaccinated. But way more

It's appalling that you trivialize human rights. You should be ashamed.

Its at least consistent - which, IMO, is better than just getting a random version. I do, however, think it's a bit unfortunate that it prevents picking up bug / security fixes in transitive dependencies. Imagine that you depend o

> Version pinning can be done in setup.py using the same syntax you would see in a requirements.txt file The problem with this approach is that it doesn't handle transitive dependencies well. Say you depend on version 1.4.6 of a par

Iff it remains open is irrelevant. It's only relevant iff it is reused - and I'm still waiting for evidence of that.

Neither you or anyone else that I've seen have provided any evidence that the same connection is re-used. Imagine this scenario: 1. User visits a site in normal mode. Browser opens connection A. Browser uses connection A to fetch the s

Interesting. On Mac OS, connecting to a VPN seems to terminate all activate connections for me pretty immediately.

There is nothing to correlate unless the connection is actually re-used in private mode. Merely leaving an unused connection open doesn't change much of anything.

Evidence?

Do you have evidence that connections opened in non-private mode are re-used in private mode?

Those are some pretty strong generalizations that I'm not convinced are true all the time.

It doesn't matter who said it. What matters is that they are wrong. Encrypting the connection significantly complicates that attack.

I'm not really sure what you are getting at. Regardless of what Samsung is doing, I'm confused by the argument that encryption is useless because Samsung might take steps to work around it when not using a Samsung device is a viab

I only found out about this quirk a few months ago immediately after I had given the same warning you had to someone else. It's extremely unintuitive.

As the sibling comment points out, it actually doesn't work that way. The first parameter is only treated as a format string _if_ there are arguments. If not, it is treated as a literal string: https://github.com/python

> we refer to QUIC and HTTP/3 together as QUIC My understand is that HTTP/3 always means QUIC is used according to the standard. But that QUIC can be used for other protocols as well. FB's terminology seems to be backwards

I don't believe that's accurate in general. Let's say you open up a new C codebase: What are its dependencies? You'll have to hunt through its README (hopefully it's up to date!), other build instructions, maybe CMa

Calling someone "crazy" because you disagree with their code style is inappropriate.

Is your theory that if this thread didn't exist in HN that the problem would be less severe? I don't think it works that way.

On the one hand, I tend to agree with you. But on the other hand, I think there is a significant nuance - for many users going into recovery mode is beyond what they are comfortable doing with their laptop and so for all intents and purpose
