If they can't manage to fix a severe security hole within 90 days, I'd say that they deserve to have their credibility destroyed. I'm with GP on that we need more programs like project zero.

It's the other way around: you need to prove that what he says is merely feel-good baloney. Otherwise, every person is insincere, including both yourself and I. Side anecdote: While I haven't met and talked with the guy in person,

Just because you said that, it doesn't mean he doesn't believe in it. Support your claims with proof and don't let your biases take over reason.

Whatever their justification, I wouldn't call it law at this point.

You're welcome. I must stress that I do not blame developers for not catering for a language they do not speak, and I can't blame I company for not supporting a group of people if it doesn't make business sense. I do, however

I used to be a big fan of prtmissive licenses until I bought a $700+ android phone a couple of years back and discovered that it did not "support" my native language (it could render the glyphs but system-wide support was not enab

I designate a separate memory control group for the browser, and set both `memory.limit_in_bytes` and `memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes` to 1.5 GB. Then the browser is launched within that group. The tools are the standard cgcreate and cgexec. W

I use linux's control groups with very satisfactory results.

Only because they made the mistake of sharing their infrastructure (hence, their quirks) and got caught. I wouldn't call that oversight. CAs should be required to announce ownership or large administration changes, and trust in said CA

Then they shouldn't have grouped the orthogonal issues together in an all-or-nothing affair.

What I'm attempting to get across is that oligarchies by themselves aren't inherently any worse than other forms of rule. Corruption is what makes them and other forms bad.

Could you enable https?

That's corruption for you. No matter what form of power structure is employed, if you don't have good laws that are uniformly enforced, you'll get corruption, be the structure oligarchical or democratic.

by goodplay 10y ago
The problem isn't that it's oligarchical, the problem is corruption. You don't need to look far to see that democracy and free markets aren't exactly free of corruption either. Tying the two is nothing but a red herring.

People don't trust their hardware vendors because they're trustworthy, they trust them because they don't have any real choice. If my preferred OEM offered me the choice between a locked-down opaque system, and an /equiv

A self-driven plane doesn't share the same challenges a self-driven car does. Furthermore, planes usually have at least one rigorously trained pilot to handle it should the computer fail or make incorrect discussions, and a relatively

Firstly, I'm glad you and your family were not harmed. I do not in any way mean for this to be offensive or disrespectful, but would you still welcome self-driving cars had this incident been caused by a malfunctioning self-driving car

I am also human driver and I feel safer around "dumb" cars. I don't ever intend to ride a self driving car, and will do my best to avoid being near one. Aside from being vulnerable to malicious actors, self-driving cars make

I believe youtube-dl is capable of downloading entire lists, but I don't know if the watch-later list behaves as a normal list. One way to find out.

I've used to employ a similar work flow to GP until a few years ago when video support finally got acceptable in web browsers. I still download talks rather than watch them on youtube or if I want to insure the future availability of t

One good reason for me personally is to insure future availability. As I type this, there are a couple of videos in my watch-later playlist that have been replaced with "video removed".
