One of the fundamental problems of distributed systems is the network. Adding a computing component over a network adds all kinds of complexity. Adding data on top of that adds complexity in managing data. If the purpose is to simplify, the

I've stopped trying to convince people against using things like Fail2ban. As long as it's not a company or government where security is important, let them waste their time.

Not really. Society is a broad concept, which contains many different concepts, two of which are ingroup and outgroup. It's a complex topic, but suffice to say that within the concept of ingroup, there are some common behaviors specifi

It's an ingroup reinforcement method. If you're part of a cult, and you're not allowed to eject someone from the cult, you can at least ignore them or walk away from them when they talk to you, if you don't agree with wh

It's not just bad, it's a fundamental failure of security. The effect is the same as a password that can't be changed. It might still be possible for users to manually delete active sessions in some Google account management

They don't, though. Browsers are almost trivial to exploit. There have been seven (7) 0day exploits in Chrome this year (that we know of). Know how many CVEs there were for Chrome in total in 2023? Two-hundred and forty (240). That&#
