Senji··on Reddit CEO admits to altering user comments that were critical of him
Here's a better advice. Never apologize, never surrender. If you apologize the attacks don't relent. Instead they use your apology as an admission of wrongdoing and defeat and try to hang your wrong doings over your head so you succumb to their wishes for irrelevant moral bullshit.

You tell them to roundly go fuck themselves and appeal to the people that agree with you, the opposition's feelings be damned.

Senji··on The war on drugs has failed: doctors should lead calls for drug policy reform
While it might have happened. It doesn't need to anymore. Seeing as how Billions of dollars can just up and disappear from the DoD's accounting books and noone has been held accountable.
Senji··on Tech firms seek to frustrate internet history log law
Are perfect forward security protocols then illegal? What if it's physically impossible for you to give them a key that doesn't exist anymore?
Senji··on FluidNet – Accelerating Eulerian Fluid Simulation with Convolutional Networks
Can you train a meta-network on all of those specifically trained networks as input?

The US doesn't "need" drug money to finance brutal dictators. It's currency is now backed by its military might. It can print as much as it wants and if you even think of trading OIL in another currency they invade and liberate your ass.

While it sounds good, it's pretty bullshit to say the war on drugs is about financing dictators.

It's fair to say that the CIA does have pet opium projects, with US ground troops playing guards for Afghan farmers. But that's a different thing.

Senji··on Headphones can be hijacked to surreptitiously record audio
It's a selling point. You plug anything at the back then change the jack's purpose in the control panel gui for the audio card.
Senji··on The year you were born predicts flu risk
If the data is open, kickstart a webpage or heroku or githubio with js.
Senji··on Microsoft reboots war on sleep
I suggest training your agency. Read some Nietzsche :3
Senji··on Microsoft reboots war on sleep
You joke, but this IS how I quit cigarettes. The impulse to smoke was momentary and I'd reach into my pocket. Not having cigs there, I'd be slightly miffed.

But as I was not buying any, a separate action on which I had taken a clear stance for myself, I ended up not smoking unless in a group setting.

Over time I cut out on that too.

Senji··on Pipfile for Python
>This way the transitive dependencies can evolve on their own without us having to keep track of them.

This sounds exactly the opposite of what I'd want. I don't want some one to slip in a Guy Fiery into my dependence chain without me noticing.

Senji··on Pipfile for Python
Just have an env var that's off by default. Name it $piparanoia
Senji··on API Discovery: Can we do better?
Having a problem with industry acceptance? Throw the government at it. Either mandate or give tax breaks for following standards that the govt decrees you must meet.

When you can't use the government make a conglomerate of large companies with key hold on industries.

Senji··on Quit Social Media, Your Career May Depend on It
It has helped me vicariously reconnect with old schoolmates.
Senji··on Increasing Attacker Cost Using Immutable Infrastructure
COW by default file systems which provide a "snapshot at time x" can help with this. NTFS can do it with shadowcopy.
Senji··on Increasing Attacker Cost Using Immutable Infrastructure
Should probably just tiger-tree-hash your containers. If they deviate you give them a copy of your database, but it's a "virtual" shadow copy. No writes to it reflect on the real database.

ConEmu is endlessly modifiable. You can inject dll hooks into it if you so wish even.
Senji··on New CIA director thinks Snowden should be killed
Changes nothing. Enemies of the intelligence community have a certain proclivity of accidentally falling down stairs multiple times in a row.
Senji··on New CIA director thinks Snowden should be killed
You don't enshrine traitors who've helped you to take over. You execute them because they have proven they are ready to betray their masters and they'll do it to you when opportune.
Senji··on If Prisoners Ran Prisons
We could try mars. We just send more and more in batches with resources. Until they start dying off in too large a quantity.

Hey, if it worked for the Americas and Australia.

Senji··on Google reverses its ‘digital death sentence’ for Pixel phone resellers
I could theoretically register a separate account for any one of those. The thing is. I should be given the option of not connecting all of those. Separation of concerns.
Senji··on Google reverses its ‘digital death sentence’ for Pixel phone resellers
The "identity mechanism" is actually your "Google account", gmail and the other google accounts used to be separate. But some one had the bright idea to force G+ on everyone by forcing them to merge all accounts, thus drawing audience from gmail and youtube. A really swell move.

If google wanted to they could provide oauth like identity only service.

Senji··on Microsoft Replaces Command Prompt with PowerShell in Latest Windows 10 Build
You could put the @ in front of the command like so:

1 line file: @type %1

    ls c:\ 
or gci c:\
Senji··on Microsoft Replaces Command Prompt with PowerShell in Latest Windows 10 Build
They should have implemented these with a missing command handler. So if the ls wget etc exist they work. But just before the command line complains of unknown program name it should check that list and execute the alias.

A new "bottom of the stack" alias instead of the current one that takes precedent over executables.

It's GUI shell does. Theoretically you can create a process from any binary blob. But to invoke it the gui way you need to have it either with an .exe or another self executing ext defined in the registry.

If you're going to use CMD/PS on windows you might go whole hog and install ConEmu. Then load it up with Cygwin, and DosBox.

ConEmu can even integrate stuff like Putty.

You get to pick. Then we drop you off with a helicopter.
