Yes, exactly that.

You can always build a small search webservice that you open source and that your proprietary software calls out too, removing the need to open source everything. Linux is GPL too,…

Surprised too, if that is the fix. Wouldnt a whitelist be better than a blacklist?

In the spam protection settings, you can choose a protection level of off, standard, aggressive or custom. I choose custom. Then, I send everything with a score of 5 or more to spa…

This reddit comment makes me thinks it reasonable. Who knows what's true though. https://www.reddit.com/r/fastmail/comments/1do3ede/comment/l...

I'm even more convinced that me being a Fastmail customer is a good thing. Fastmail has been rock solid for years. Their email, calendar and contacts solutions work well with iOS a…

That's what happens when you give your project a common name as a name.

I agree with you. And at the same time, I often feel like it is more difficult being heard when being nuanced. It seems like what gets discussed most are strong opinions.

Open AI not being open means it will be used in ways that will benefit shareholders, not humanity as they initially planned it, unless it so happens that humanity's goals are align…

You say yourself that the time data could be tampered. It's trivial to change commit dates in git. So this analysis means nothing by itself, unfortunately.

Not at all. For instance, I don't know what the next steps are, but I run SSH servers behind Wireguard, exactly to prevent them being accessible in the case of such events. Wiregua…

I was thinking about reinstalling, because I'm on Manjaro Linux, which has the version in question. But it's unclear if earlier versions are also vulnerable. And if it did nasty th…

Totally agree. With things like Dependabot encouraged by GitHub, people now get automated pull requests for dependency updates, increasing the speed of propagation of such vulnerab…

Going forward this will require more than a citizens investigation. Law enforcement will surely be granted access. Also, tarballs are still available in package managers if you rea…

> Tigris paid me a small amount to try their beta and write about it, but they didn’t have a say in the content. Yes, right. People pay for negative reviews all the time. The artic…

Why would you assume that?

This should like bad company processes all around. For a sum this high, you need more than just a video call. Get an email (if the tech team setup DMARC correctly, sending phishing…

Good reminder to always run internal services such as Gitlab behind a VPN which only trusted users have access to.

But dirtier during construction. More difficult to repair most of the time too. Pros and cons. If you keep an EV for a long time, than it is cleaner. But a lot of EVs are thrown ou…

With "an" EV? Like all EVs have the same carbon footprint? That's definitely not true. Furthermore, even an EV has a carbon footprint and its far from 0. The real solution to be gr…

Because you think EVs keep the planet alive? They require enormous amounts of raw materials. Unless they are also shared with car sharing or car pooling. Then yes.

That has nothing to do with AI though. That has to do with security engineering. Sentry could accidentally leak data without AI just as they could use AI in a secure way.

I've seen it self-hosted too, worked fine with little to no maintenance. https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/

Not really. The original title is a bit misleading in that the 6 countries combined have the same population ad the USA alone.
