Tesla takedown is not about damaging property - it's strictly peaceful protests to discourage people from buying Tesla, and to raise awareness of Musk's role in DOGE and breaking the government. Editorializing: A lot of folks boug

You said you didn't know what to do, so some ideas to start the ideas flowing for you: - support media, particularly local. - there are protests to attend if that's your thing. Tesla takedown is one set that's getting a lot o

No. Local but it always tries to connect and the deamon to which it tries to connect is optional, which means that the default is attackable. An attacker can run their own program on the port and send bad strings that will cause an overflow

My high skilled example from the other day: I wrote an algorithm out line by line in detail and had Claude turn it into avx2 intrinsics. It worked really well and i didn't have to dig through the manuals to remember how to get the lane

This is a good question - I'm not sure. The rpmspec doesn't seem to install it, so perhaps it's not quite that bad. The atop program _itself_ runs persistently, though, so, uh, still bad. :)

There's a lot of speculation about why, with the answer almost certainly security / exploitable (or backdoor), and I'll just throw an extra little tidbit in: atop seems to run persistently as root, which may be the reason for

Or not even the device: The other reason we have SCIFs is they provide a secure location. These personal devices could have been in use anywhere, including places where they were subject to observation. Including but not limited to Moscow.

No, that might be the beginning of the standard, because once it's published you realize they don't have a version number or vendor ID or any way to add fields other than the ones they hard coded or whatnot. But it's a start

Nothing that I've cared much about. Little python utility scripts like "merge the rows of these CSV files in such and such a way" are about the only thing that has worked first time without me adding more of the "how&quo

Copper wire has high resale value. So do solar panels. Copper theft is a problem worldwide, including the US.

There are! But composability is easier in the languages that have generics/templates/etc. There's less passing around of function pointers and writing of custom comparator functions, using something like binary search or sort

Correctness is not just about security. And the threat environment to which a program may eventually be exposed is not always obvious up front. Also, no: that's only true for some kinds of programs. Rust, c++, and go all have a much ea

I can't login to the work-paid-for version of Microsoft Copilot with Firefox, for some reason. I've had one or two others - I think they were internal CMU website tools. And even more niche: My kids took a ski lesson last year at

I've been running firefox on my laptop for the last year, with Chrome on my desktop, as a way to head-to-head them. For folks contemplating the switch, it hasn't been bad at all. Some better, some worse, but overall I rarely notic

A very likely culprit is the packet encapsulation changing things for the worse. An informative test would be to tcpdump (wireshark, etc) the packet stream with and without tailscale. Look at packet sizes, etc. The overhead shouldn't b

This depends too much on the specific grid topology to be generally true. For example, there is an underground transmission line that is one of the bottlenecks for about 30,000 people in my part of Pittsburgh. It's not too uncommon to

But you won't - you "own" an equal number of shares of TSLA indirectly through the index fund. If TSLA goes up, that part of your ETF has gone up. You're just being simultaneously long and short the same stock. The only

by dgacmu 2y ago
I wish this existed more generally, but it doesn't. However, you can do it in a few different ways: (1) As another commenter noted, you can short TSLA in rough proportion to the amount of it in your ETF. This incurs some borrowing cost

You're actually still misunderstanding overhead a little. Overhead isn't applied uniformly. For example, tuition for Ph.D. students isn't charged overhead, nor is (usually) equipment. So on $1m of funding, if you've got
