My general understanding is that "dismantling of flexible Western production capabilities, increased reliance on these countries, and dissuaded aggression towards them" was the whole point of global supply chains; literally the do

I don't block ads, I block technology, for largely political reasons. I have the technical skills to do so, which almost certainly puts me in a minority. But all the whining from ad-supported corps is just whining, and if that doesn&#x

Changing passwords as a cracking mitigation is "bad medicine", always has been, and is now acknowledged as such. Mathematically, imagine it is raining (stochastically speaking, evenly distributed on the interval, with replacement)

Interesting that Crunchbase thinks more workers have been laid off in so far in 2023 than were laid off in 2022.

The most permanent and effective solutions (in terms of minimizing adversarial activity over time and destroying the value of what is harvested) involve serving fake content (poison!), making site failures sporadic (forcing them to maintain

It's clear to me now what the purpose of LLMs truly is: we groom them to be translators between species.

> do humans trade with GOD? Yes, humans trade with God(s). But it's an article of faith, much as is our cherished notion that those around us are thinking machines, just like us.

Not quite sure, and I'm not quite sure I care either. ;-) However for any multiple of 9, the digits will add up to a multiple of 9. So you're looking for numbers in [ (n+2)*9 + 1 for n in range(9) ]

Security is largely a quality problem, and quality is something you do not something you buy; this is why. For some reason I've latched onto baseball as my analogy for this. A high-performing team has quality metrics, not only for the

Chickens have belly buttons. I think anything that comes from an egg potentially has one.

How is chaos theory fundamentally different than Prigogine's notion of self organizing systems, and is it really a better model than the latter?

I dunno, I think the person who invented the lever understood the principle well enough to jest that they could move the world?

Audio doesn't require all that much bandwidth. 20Kb/Sec should be plenty for reasonable fi. "CD quality" would be 40Kb. Ultrasound maybe double. So... 20Kb would be 20 packets per second and that's being generous. T

You're not a stranger here. I looked through your submissions for one about the specific issue at hand, didn't see anything about OpenNLP. Even if it doesn't stay on page 1 for days a Show HN is a submission, and people can l

If you don't have time to make a fork where do you find time to complain or file bug reports with the upstream? The only person you have to maintain a fork for is you; you don't even have to submit a fix upstream. You don't e

A lot of projects like this can / should be forked. It depends on how much credit you want, if someone then looks at your fork and incorporates the change into mainline themselves.

> If avoiding fragmentation was obviously good In the general case frags are always bad, and instead of blocking DNS over TCP your firewall should be alerting on them. In the case of the DNS resolution protocol, UDP frags are double-bad.

Thanks. Apropos "virtual turtles all the way down" I was expecting something along the lines of the well-recognized historical practice of site to site VPNS and tunnelling for DNS backhaul. It's not fair to conflate "DNS

Amazingly the DNS operator community doesn't offer a checklist for DNS implementations. I asked on dns-operations@.

I have worked for Paul Vixie. (I've met Mockepetris and Liu.) Even Vixie agrees UDP frags were a bad idea for The DNS. Given the context of where we're discussing this, mind if I ask: Why is UDP so attractive for DNS operators? Is

Not saying that it's strictly how it has to be done but historically in OT environments the choice was more between (Ethernet) CSMA/CD and token ring (not so much Netware, it wanted to do its own thing) on a segment that IP was tr
