Jesus Christ, you can't just leave your S3 bucket open, guys. There are lots of warnings from Amazon before you end up doing that, and it's so easy to not do (pre-signed URLs if you really need a URL). I guess it's rather interesting to see the reactions from the media and HN comments. Sort of reflects the relative politics: - Patreon leak. Media didn't go download everyone's data and threaten to get info. HN blamed…

The question I have is, did GiveSendGo concede that they left the bucket open, and if not, how was it opened.

> Not all unvaccinated people end up in a hospital though. So aren't we discriminating against them? We absolutely are, and I applaud the effort. If they were fighting against rabies or measles or tetanus vaccinations, I'd say "Good on you! Do your part to clean out the shallow end of the gene pool." But once their stupidity endangers others, we as civilized people step in and stop them. When unvaccinated COVID patie…

> When unvaccinated COVID patients flood the hospitals [..] In our part of the world, despite eye-watering infection rates over the last few weeks, hospitals are absolutely nowhere near capacity (and that's putting it mildly). Were younger and fitter people really flooding hospitals if they got Covid? Thought the data on age and comorbidities is pretty clear and has been for a while now.[0][1] [0] https://www.thelanc…

Your comment evoked the current Ukraine crisis. What do the midterm or general elections in the United States have to do with American citizens sympathizing with and donating money to causes in other countries? That is not an issue that is on the ballot. At least foreign policy is something that is germane to those elections. This is a complete non sequitur.

Yes, I am. Noise pollution has the same effect on people regardless of the source.

You pretty much proved my point by diminishing the one particular source of noise that you personally don't consider "as bad".

Things aren't back to normal because of politics. There have been places where things have been normal for over a year now.

No, there aren't. I live in a place where you can shit on restrictions all you want. Things aren't back to normal because people are still careful on how much they socialize and what the risk profile is. Things aren't back to normal because people have moved away from offices and it turns out a lot of people like that just fine, meaning a lot of old businesses have shut down, new businesses have opened up, and habits…

> Also something like 0.5% of the population died [..]

Q: What % of the population would be expected to die in a "normal" (pre-Covid) year?

(I realise there is a discussion about excess deaths, but it's not quite as simple as being able to assign the excess to Covid, see https://www.health.org.uk/publications/long-reads/what-has-h... )

I don't think they're comparable. Peaceful protests are a good thing and blackface (by an authoritarian no less) is a bad thing .

Yeah, seems super peaceful: https://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/mobile/ottawa-police-report-a-nigh... Please, spare me, and spare the rest of us, your poorly informed takes.

From your own link:

> Residents complained about another night of illegal fireworks, loud music and horn honking Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Loud music? Say it isn't so!

Just get vaccinated. It takes, like, 5 minutes.

No. It is immoral for a healthy, COVID recovered man to get a vaccine best used in the third world. To travel, and get around my moral qualms, I signed up for a vaccine trial. I was refused or got the placebo.

Nice sentiment but this is analogous to the concept of not throwing out food because there are starving people out there. The vaccine you're not taking isn't going to magically get reappropriated for use in the third world. Most likely, it will just go to waste.

> I'd do a deeper reading but I'm a bit lazy, but my understanding is that the EA does not allow, in any way, a shift in governance that could be described as "martial law" - where the military is in control of civil functions and can create or remove laws as military leadership desires. Even with the EA invoked, the federal government still controls the Canadian military (but can be assisted in enforcing civil law _…

Both of the situations you described can be accurate simultaneously. There are two levels of civil government. The military can override the civil functions of the lower level (the states) while still taking orders from the upper level (the federal government)

Please apply what you've just said directly to contemporary Canadian governance and polity.

The IP addresses in the leak appear to show all of them (or at least most) as being Class B private addresses (172.16. . )

Irrelevant to my actual opinion of the whole protest, I find this fact hilarious. And somewhat sad…true tech literacy will never be reached I guess.

I don't think it is literacy really, just sloppy engineering process.

Typically this happens when someone develops a service which is front facing without any proxy/ LB before it, goes to production and gets validated IP and other logs are great everyone moves on . Few months/years down to scale their service or improve security a LB or CF type proxy is put in front and no bothers to check the IP logs are still valid because no one actually uses IP for anything in their tooling( like filters/blocks or geomapping etc) so won't notice the break at all.
