> Which of the criticisms in that article don't stand? What's changed?

Which of the rebuttals in the link I gave don’t stand?

> Adoption of DNSSEC has barely budged since I wrote it.

According to this graph, DNSSEC adoption seems to now be roughly 16×, i.e. 1600%, of what it was when you wrote it:

> I think it’s Scott Adams who used to say analogies work well for explaining. They work terribly for persuasion.

Yes; here is one instance: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n45D_zi3O5g#t=14m13s>

You don’t seem to be giving any up-to-date criticism. I think it’s telling that the old rebuttals still basically stand.

The rebuttal is old because the criticism is old. If you give more up-to-date criticism, then more modern rebuttals are available.

”DNS security” can mean many things, but DNSSEC was meant to solve the problem of verification of DNS data, while still allowing for offline signing and secondary DNS servers serving pre-signed zones, without distributing the key everywhere. DoH/DoT do not solve this; they solve different problems.

A single machine code instruction is sufficient: <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=One-instruction_s...>

  At Calgary, the computer science department has an award called
  the Williams Cup (as in old stained coffee cup), which is given
  yearly to the student who hands in the most imaginative
  rendition of a regular programming assignment.  Anyway, as the
  story goes, the cup was awarded to a student who'd done a desk
  calculator assignment.  Seems that the prof hadn't specified
  that you had to do it in decimal, so his/her program did math
  with _roman_numerals_.
  
  The clincher for the award must have been his/her programming
  style, since of course, the documentation was in _latin_.

ITYM ”iniquity”?

It has been submitted many times, but was only really discussed in 2012: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4337626>

This is an ad. Furthemore, what is being sold, for money, is a simple prototype of a basic 3D renderer.

“Dr. Venkman, we believe that the purpose of science is to serve mankind. You, however, seem to regard science as some kind of dodge or hustle. Your theories are the worst kind of tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable; you are a poor scientist, Dr. Venkman. And you have no place in this department or in this university.”

That commit message mentions laws from California, Colorado, and Brazil. Today’s article is only about how the Californian law is inapplicable. It seems to me that the feature is still valid.

Like JoshTriplett explains in other places in this thread, Kühn means that the judge will not care about Bambu Studio’s workarounds; i.e. that the judge will see through these as the tricks they are, and not allow Bambu Studio to get away with it.

The article does not even begin to answer the question of the title.

”Steel Shark”, maybe?

Do sharks normally make sounds?

Key takeaway:

> And the existence of WebUSB, WebHID, and WebBluetooth mean that for some devices, depending on the specifics of which classes are used, a moment of user indiscretion in accepting a permissions prompt could permanently backdoor one of their attached devices.

The only “Kobo” I know of is a game which was popular around 1993, a remake for X11/Unix of the old 1981 Bosconian arcade game. A recent active fork can still be installed on modern systems as “Kobo Deluxe”.
