Correct (as far as I know), but:

A) Changing a Dockerfile is rare B) Typically the lines that change (adding your code) are near the end of the Dockerfile, and the long part with installing libraries is at the beginning

Why would they block a service they found a way to compromise?

I believe they just mean the setup doesn't default to a root user, you can still use sudo.

XUL is no longer exposed to plugins (in non-ESR FF), but is still used internally in some places - where it is slowly being replaced.

Not even close, at least with chess. Chess games expand too rapidly that even with tricks to catch duplicates and discard obviously bad states and whatnot we're nowhere close to "100% depth inspection".

Ignoring widespread belief that the Turkish elections were less than fair, this kind of sentiment about politicians always surprises me. If I vote for a candidate why am I required to forever support every thing they do? I can vote for someone and still disagree (even strongly) with some of their decisions.

No they wouldn't, because this is trivially easy to MITM. The whole reason CAs exist is to verify the identity of the domain owner, because any random MITMer can claim to be yourbank.com and you can't prove it either way.

Very technically this would be slightly better because it stops passive observers, but in reality I suspect it would be worse because tons of websites would use this broken by design solution and think they were perfectly secure because encryption.

What we really need is to stop making HTTPS so hard to setup. It has gotten better in the last 5-10 years, but you still have to do this whole rigamarole with Apache2/nginx to disable weak cipher suites, setup all the right TLS parameters, etc because the default configuration is so bad. Imagine a world where I just installed an HTTP server and it asks me if I wanted to get a cert from Let's Encrypt (or any other ACME provider) and just did all the setup correctly for me.

> So Internet security has become a big and ongoing business, which has to be paid for. If I want to have a secure E-commerce site so I can make money, I have buy security services on top of the basic web services: an HTTPS address instead of the original HTTP: — OK, fair enough.

Has this guy not heard of Let's Encrypt? HTTPS certificates are literally free. I was astounded when I got to the end of the article and saw it was published in 2020 and not 2015.

I'll get right to installing that extension on Chrome for Android...

Unfortunately I cannot find a weight for the set on either this website or LEGO's official website.

As far as I know there is basically no reason to use OO, it is a completely dead project. All of the development effort is being focused on LO, so if you want a FOSS word processor use LO.

The blog is hosted on IPFS. To allow normal web browsers without IPFS support to view the website they use Cloudflare's IPFS gateway, which is a service that serves content from IPFS over normal HTTP.

> Yes, Boeing was too aggressive about reducing cost to compete with Airbus and they need some major reform because hundreds of people are dead. But ...

"Yes, Boeing killed hundreds of people due to their negligence, but think of the cost savings!"

duck.com/lite does not work though

I "systematically" downvote comments that exist solely to advertise an alternative to the software being discussed. I would do the exact same thing to "hey, use firefox" comments on a Brave-related article.

In an ideal world, maybe - but most delivery drivers employed by the restaurant (like pizza delivery drivers) take multiple orders at a time to deliver. You're going to have to get very lucky to beat this on average with DoorDash or similar services.

4 digit codes are obviously easy to crack. That's a pathetically low number of combinations.

> Judging just by the editorializing title

The HN title is the title of the linked SE post (with a prefix stripped).

The drive is the issue, linux just happens to a better job of using other resources to improve HDD performance. Said linux installation would still be much faster/more responsive on an SSD. For the prices that Apple charges for their computers they should include a low-tier SSD at the very least.

I have no idea then, it's worked for me in the past - Plaid asks me to give them the 2FA auth code I receive via text.

As far as I can tell those are all events that were taking place in the real world and were also organized on/protested on Twitter - rather than Twitter being the cause and/or sole location of them.

Whether or not FB meddling influenced the result of the US election is questionably uncertain at best, and regardless Russia isn't an internet mob.

> But in these times people or rather mobs have got that power - for better or worse.

Is this really true? It seems like social media has a relatively limited impact on companies/countries on any scale longer than a week. Most social media outrage seems to just result in an apology by the company and perhaps some weak action, and everybody forgets about it a few days later.

Remember when the whole internet collectively tried to stop the FCC from repealing net neutrality? Or Article 13? Or the constant complaints about demonetization of content on YouTube? Internet mobs never seem to get anything meaningful done.

Are you trying to use a business account or something? Otherwise I have no clue.

Lying typically refers to intentional deceit (as in you know what you are saying is false, or at the very least you don't care if what you say is true or not), so you can not be unaware you are lying.

Traditional view: Jobs with a high amount of physical labor are low skill, so people with more skills (i.e. intelligence) have jobs with less physical labor.

Your parent's opinion: This view is incorrect, people with higher social status, not higher intelligence, receive jobs with less physical labor.

What type of 2FA are you using? I have the default (SMS based) and it works for me.

Do you know where I can watch the status on that?

> does not work if you have 2FA enabled

Plaid definitely works with BoA + 2FA, at least as of about a month ago when I had to use it.

Trying to teach the science behind vaccines, climate change, HIV/AIDS, or any other common denial topic is a losing battle. There will always be a new conspiracy theory to believe in. Knock one common denial argument down and 10 spring up to take its place.

We actually need to focus on teaching trust in scientists and the scientific method. You can't reasonably expect people to understand all these complex modern innovations and concepts to the level where they can easily identify hoaxes. You can expect people to realize who the experts in each field are and find the consensus among their opinions.
