Being written in Go, I would be very surprised if it's anywhere close to as fast as either of those tools.

What is an example of a high-quality newspaper / magazine that the OP should read?

Nobody includes Alaska in these calculations because 80% of it us uninhabitable. I was only talking about the lower-48.

Take the 3 million square miles of USA supporting 330 million people, and add 1 billion more people to it. That's India. They have a population crisis which their land area can't support.

LuaJIT + nginx event loop is probably the fastest network runtime in existence. Is there a faster one? In terms of writing high-level code that executes at the speed of the machine.

The US imports most of its crude oil from Canada and Mexico [0], but mostly from Canada. There's been a persistent, but false, narrative that the US needs oil from the Middle East. The US' concern with the oil in the Middle East is mostly to _protect_ the supply to Europe, and _control_ the supply to China. The US has never needed oil from Saudi Arabia.

I'm sure mongodb is fine and powers a lot of high-profile sites and services. But I've never had a good experience running it or administering it.

But I'm also one of the the people that still prefers to run MySQL over PostreSQL just because the tooling is still far superior

I actually thought for the longest time that they would eventually acquire red hat. But now I'm thinking it will be canonical

> The light is connected to the actual power of the camera and cannot be disabled unless the camera is also disabled.

This was proven false when malware was discovered that accessed the camera on Mac laptops without activating the LED light. It's mentioned in the article.

yes i know

correct

    $ find "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles" -name cookies.sqlite -exec sh -c "sqlite3 '{}' 'SELECT * FROM moz_cookies'" \;

Basically:

* Normally you can't access Chrome's decrypted cookie storage unless you're in an interactive session and you've unlocked the keychain.

* An attacker running code on your computer (nefarious NPM package, etc) can spawn a headless chrome session with remote debugging enabled and then slurp out all the decrypted cookies through the remote debugging socket

Chrome is very frightening to me. It's just this massive God program that has a huge attack surface and a lot of really valuable goodies like this that attackers would love to get at.

This is very nice looking and I'm going to be following the project wishing for full markdown support. I love editors like these!

pretty neat. what would be the best way for me to block this

feel free to delete any comments you dont like

anything that requires chrome to function is essentially spyware. so..

no thanks

looks like it's basically electron but doesnt bundle chrome. and electron is a piece of crap.

edit: one time I downloaded this little mac menu bar applet that did something I wanted. I took a look at the little .js file that actually did stuff and it was about 200 lines or so. but the "application" was about 140 mega bytes. I never deleted something off my computer so fast.

The video segments are encrypted by the same key? It's not a per-user key? So if a single "authorized" viewer can just get all decryption keys then they can allow anyone to decrypt the video stream. Completely bypassing these authorization checks.

oh i was thinking of a different experiment

> LeBron has some awesome ink. It’s a part of his brand, and so back in 2015, those tattoos were included in the computerized depiction of LeBron created for the NBA2K video game. [...] Ordinarily that wouldn’t have been a big deal, except that it led to a lawsuit being filed by Solid Oak Sketches, LLC, against the video-game makers, for copyright infringement.

Reminder to NOT use any 3rd-party VPN service if you truly value your privacy. ProtonVPN, PureVPN, Private Internet Access, etc. Do not use those services if you're intending to do some "shady shit". I know first hand that Google has a (semi)-automated web-based process for law enforcement to submit their subpoenas and get the entire access history of a particular Google/Gmail account. They don't get access to the contents of the account, but they get to see IP addresses and user agents that accessed that account in the last N days. A warrant to see the contents of the accounts would be trivial if the investigators wanted to pursue it.

good riddance to these companies.

Uber and Lyft have caused NYC traffic to slow by 12% since 2015 [0]. These private companies have flooded the public roadways and overwhelmed the infrastructure without any obligation to meter themselves or pay for their fair share of access. I finally understand what the NYC Taxi Commission existed for.

younow is very creepy. a lot of it is middle school and high school aged kids dancing around in their bedrooms or entertaining teen talk for thousands of viewers. I just get a really bad creepy vibe from the site in general
