But this is not even a soft contradiction, or even an apparent contradiction. It's a problem with too many possible solutions so we don't know which one to pick. A paradox appears to have no solutions (until it's solved).

I think that's quite obvious. You say that as if there were alternatives. Are there any other, more convenient techniques to defend against evil maid attacks?

I already have machines doing my laundry and dishes. They run a very simple program, no AI needed. I guess what you mean is that you need a robot butler that takes care of the remaining tasks of loading and unloading them, and folding the l

Phones must be orders if magnitudes more common than newspapers. It seems that no matter where you are in the world, everyone from age 12 and up has one on them 24/7 and uses it as soon as they have 20 seconds to spare. Newspapers were

The result is correct. But I don't understand your conclusion. Where does that number 10^12 kg come from?

Branching in MWI happens when quantum systems become entangled, not when time travellers arrive. I don't think MWI is going to save you here

Sub luminal speeds are in an entirely different category than super luminal speeds. It's hard to overstate how different it is, so the original objection is completely appropriate. You can argue about the wording, but what's the p

Or warp drives are simply impossible or at least ultra unfeasible. Nothing unsettling about that thought.

That doesn't match any definition of super-luminal that I have ever seen. Super-luminal means faster than light, period.

They do that all the time.

No you can still time travel, but yes you cannot change things. It has to be self consistent. For example, if you plan to go back and kill your grandfather, you'd perhaps be run over by a car two blocks before you get to him, but if yo

Depends by which time-travel rules we have to play. In the "whatever happened, happened" case, the butterfly effect is not an issue.

Which EDR vendor provides a mechanism for testing virus signatures? This is the first time I'm hearing it and I'd like to learn more to close that knowledge gap. I always thought they are all updated ASAP, no exceptions.

by mr_mitm 2y ago
Does anyone test their antivirus updates individually as a customer? I thought they happen multiple times a day, who has time for that?

It can tell me the time when I'm wondering if I should just get up or have two hours left without me having to open my eyes and look for my glasses. It can set a timer when I have my hands full with veggies and cooking utensils. It can

Yes, but you need the Bitlocker key to get into safe mode

These files cannot be deleted or modified by the user, even with admin privs. That would make it trivial to disable the antivirus. It's only possible by mounting the file system in a different OS, which is typically prevented by Bitloc

LaTeX's support is already problematic. Most people just don't use it in sufficient intensity to notice. We produce thousands of (mostly) custom written technical reports a year using LaTeX and there are all sorts of subtle issu

If you don't already have an anti virus on your work machine, you're in a extremely small minority. As a consultant with projects that go about a week, I've experienced the onboarding process of over a hundred orgs first hand

How is that more efficient than Typst exactly?

Yes: https://typst.app/universe/package/letter-pro/

by mr_mitm 2y ago
True, it can't fall back to LaTeX. It's not there yet, but give them some time and there won't be any cases that Typst can't do that LaTeX can. It's already impressively close if you ask me.

by mr_mitm 2y ago
I can't wait for LaTeX to go away in favor of Typst. The experience is night and day. Very impressed with their work. I've been using Jinja2 templates to generate TeX files, but Typst can take a JSON over the command line and is e

That's not what the discussion was about. If you don't think crowdstrike qualifies as one of the best, justify your opinion.

by mr_mitm 2y ago
I don't appreciate your aggressive tone. Which AV is better in your opinion? Are there a lot?
747.
by mr_mitm 2y ago
The first. AV evasion is a whole discipline in itself and it can be anything from trivial to borderline impossible. Crowdstrike definitely plays in the champions league.

I know, I even said you should rather use the tools that the OS is providing, like the firewall. All I did was challenge the statement that Windows is secure OOB.

Not the same poster, but one phase of a typical attack inside a corporate network is lateral movement. You find creds on one system and want to use them to log on to a second system. Often, these creds have administrative privileges on the
