Or, the ESP32-C3, which is <$2.

This is DRM. I actually think that DRM has its place, it's just inaccessible to the people that need it. Imagine if you could employ these techniques when sharing secrets with a friend? Intimate photos? Wouldn't you want to be abl

I mean, I think that the people to target with this would be insurance companies, public health organizations, or employers. You're generating value for them. Unfortunately, those folks aren't very easy to sell to.

I would love to ask a question. In the article they say the following: > We definitely learned not to underestimate how flexible and strong dancers are—when you take elite athletes and you try to do what they do but with a robot, it’s a

How do you prevent the execs from delegating decision making (on paper) to engineering, and then forcing them to make certain decisions?

I don’t understand what’s wrong with gsuite and using its data export features?

How do you solve the FLP problem? e.g. Kiosk->Device: Give me $100 Device: Subtract $100 from myself Device->Kiosk: Send $100 (fail) Alternatively, what if this happens the other direction?

What’s the cost of entry into SynBio these days? Have any solutions become commoditized yet? Are there consultancies selling this as a service yet?

Big endian is also much easier to read as someone who reads from left to right.

I can’t remember the time zone offset between PST and PDT, and when the switch happens.

Yep. Although I don’t use ISO8601 for time stamps when communicating online (for 2021-03-01T00:00Z is more confusing to me than 2021-03-01 16:00 PST8PDT), it’s easier to use for dates when discussing in an online forum where people may be f

It’s to avoid wasting time, to create a sense of urgency, and to avoid putting myself in an awkward situation where I have to say no due to changed circumstances.

I work with an application that spends something like 70-80% of its time in serialization / deserialization code. This is mostly due to heap allocation / deallocation (in Golang) of objects, and the RPC stacks in use not doing all

Are there any decent CER encoders for C that are free?

Unfortunately, I do not have the chops to debate against this, but the political ramifications would be immense. The bet ( https://www.rootclaim.com/rootclaim_challenge ) requires that (a) you have $100k (b) are able to succe

He was our CIO. This was ~2011. Effectively, he was getting steak dinners from vendors, and using that to make decisions. These questions were either from ignorance or worse, malice, to force us to vendors. This (public) medical company wen

My favorite anecdote from working in health care was a VP asking if we could use—-trust OpenSSL, because it wasn’t version 1.0, and it was 0.9.8, and instead should we license an encryption product.

The trouble is that Docker does not enable user namespaces by default, and thus resulting in these CVEs. A lot of integrations (like the examples of secrets, and sidecars) do not work properly when used in conjunction with user namespaces,

Yes. The work that Intel has done on Kata Containers is great. It seems like AWS, Fly.io, and others are leveraging Firecracker. AWS delivering bare metal machines has been a pretty big game changer in the cloud space. I'm not sure how

This is a complicated question to answer. This isn't my expertise (the cluster orchestration system), but I can answer to the best of my abilities: Titus, today is a system that sits on top of Kubernetes, and uses Kubernetes components

I'm on the team that worked on this, if anyone has any questions!

I'm a little confused as to how come you don't run a GUA /128 to each container (out of a per-customer GUA /64 say). If this is from an address range you own, you can filter and drop packets at ingress/egress from t

From my understanding, wireguard makes it so that all traffic between two physical nodes shares the same 5-tuple. In addition, ECN nor DSCP are copied in or out of the packet. Do you ever run into trouble with ensuring your flows are well b

I'll give a couple examples of where I've needed a K/V database, but linking caused problems: * We have a sandboxed Javascript runtime inside of the JVM that can only do restricted work. IT would be nice to be able to use som

The problem I have with sqlite for being a general purpose file format is that it’s difficult to take a sqlite file in any language and work with it without linking against code. I kind of wish that there were native implementations of sqli

Great post! Percentage-wise, how many hot call points have moved to static call sites versus remain based on retpoline? Are there any in-vivo performance measurements?
