Bare C GUI applications with somewhat modern integration are always that 'verbose' when compared to older or framework-based ones. I do wonder about MS-DOS on different machines, technically it would be the BIOS and VBIOS doing mu

Yeah, there is a divide between what software will or will not crash. Essentially it's a combination of software using features and the features not being stable. The best combination is either software that knows the issues for each i

It's not using vs. not-using, but software compiled at a time where the Vt-x and Vt-d quirks were not known causing all sorts of crashes and intermittent freezes. So for 'broken' software (and there was a lot of it - even bac

It's somewhat sad that this is on GitHub, but the source isn't, the release contains a binary and sources that don't match and the installation suggests using the store anyway. It almost seems like this is just posturing on G

None of this has any true value, it's all just taste, human memory and preference. All you can do try try various systems and pick what works for you, while also remembering that you're not the only person in the world, and someti

Except that the contract already covers misuse and other rules with suspension as a result. But nobody reads the rules, and instead complain when they are applied to them. Inversely, it would be interesting to see what the result is if the

The native-american generations population probably doesn't intersect with the population of teenage knife-wielding attackers in london, which is what we're talking about. Then again, if you want to argue stone-age semantics: we c

We have a 20:1 ratio of developers and platform engineers where developers cannot do anything in AWS except via Infrastructure as Code. Works very well. Yes, you do need to make sure you only platform things you actually need, and not try t

This is also why just 'use the cloud' is not really good advice, as with any broad and scaled system you can't just tack it on to a project you happen to be doing. Inversely, not using the cloud because you need to know what

If you make the choice to say account == project, you're good to go in most cases. If you need deep permission hierarchies, you're screwed unless you go ABAC, but that is not amazingly implemented in any of the big clouds. Another

I would indeed expect something more robust like a security state machine where not all states can transition to any other state freely. The UI shouldn't even have a say in what transitions are allowed.

Not really, it has mostly been about managing operating systems and servers, not much else. There was a whole mess of homegrown scripts, and the PXE mess, and an even worse IPMI mess. Keep in mind that "ops" and "admin"

That's both true and a lie. It's true in that people can't agree on what words mean and slap them on anything, and it's a lie that it is ops/sysadmin, because it's not.

It depends on what you want, what you like, and what you're good at. If you just want some IT primitives that are common across many COTS products and then become a vendor tentacle, you can definitely do that and make plenty of money.

I suppose it depends on what we think of when we write system and call it secure. A system could merely be a design, or a composition, but it could just as well be a product or an implementation in general. If a system was designed to be se

Not every, but most of them are, either explicitly (by design) or implicitly (by not actually checking if it was made secure). We're talking about secure systems, not any system that could also be secure.

It's been tried, but you need a very large scale to pull this off. So it often just fails. Think RIM, Jolla, Microsoft, even Symbian as an ecosystem. To make something that has a consistent quality (or look and feel) you'd need to

How good it is depends on the actor/threat model. I'd say that server-side encryption is always a good thing when you include someone trying to steal disks from a SAN array to see if there's tasty data on it. On the other han
