Like everything it comes down to trust. I fail to see how shipping Javascript to a browser schould be treated any different than code shipped to a phone or your desktop. Yes the frequency of updates is different, but other than that if you can't trust the entity that sends you the code that you run, you are out of luck.

Sounds like the sweet spot for a union. Having bargain power would be a quantum leap for all those workers. As a european, where unions are commonplace and a main driving force behind minimum wages, I find it odd for any worker not to join a union if there is the chance.

Cutting and defunding education seems such a prevalent global trend, I find it hard to believe there is no hidden agenda.

At least here it seems to happen with the clear political agenda. Who needs evolution and democracy anyways other than those inconvenient to the indian government.

Please elaborate. So far it seems promising to me, but I started using it just recently.

Is it software, or more specifically a SaaS? In that case you might be out of luck, since most parts of the world don't recognize patents on software, apart from the US of course.

When your backend is server-side and doing something non-trivial, there is no copying without starting from scratch. Plus it's inner workings might be covered as trade secrets.

Generally, there is little to no value in ideas. Execution is what matters. Big players move slow, so that shouldn't be your biggest worry.

Great, another checklist for folks to cargo-cult their own man-made bureaucracy. Maybe that's a speciality of german-speaking government's, but I find questionnaires without clear intend dehumanizing and time-wasting.

> How hard is it for employees to get promoted? > How hard is it for them to get fired?

What do you plan to take away from these questions? Would be more useful to atleast provide your good intentions on what you are looking for when asking.

That's unfortunate. I liked hugging face. Could have been the next github for ML.

Hope the push to the AWS walled garden doesn't eat them alive.

It seems in the US regulations seem to be spun as something negative by all major news outlets.

For me this reads like sensible government policy at work. If the fines of cleanup eat into profits and are not just a minuscule cost of doing business, they set it just right instead of plain forbid it outright.

Properies of hard cash: - almost untraceable - works offline - easy to understand

Doesn't matter how you turn it, cryptocurrency is never replacing cash. Digital currency, maybe, but I would always take cash for any inperson transaction.

Is there a source to that claim? Seems to me that much rather they started dilluting their feeds with ads to the point where they lost all appeal.

Facebook and Youtube on mobile are so packed with unappealing scams that I stop scrolling after 5min

I too made that assumption before reading the article. But after reading it, that does not seem like making the wealthy the new "woke" nemesis. They much rather seek to uncover institutional corruption, where donations to a college yield better chances for your kid in getting accepted.

Let's not kid ourselfs that is not a wild conspiracy or some socialist agenda. Ending corruption is in everybodies interest, except you are planing to yourself profit from that system by making strategic donations in your offsprings interest.

Only a matter of time, so given how long it's out and how many people were poking at it, the content filtering did a good job.

I would also put this in not newsworthy, since you clearly have to give it a role. Noone would call Christopher Waltz a Racist or Nazi if it was his right role to play one.

But of course we are going to get a shitstorm of clickbait-press and political "concern" over AI now that the posterchild went bad.

Agree, without some solid syslog/trace evidence there is no reason to believe thid wild claim.

Higher education driven by commercial interest? Course lectures that include mandatory advertising? Only teaching vendor specific knowledge? All while squeezing the last cent out of students just like we do now with textbooks?

That's wrong. If everyone is doing something irrational that is a big inefficiency in the market and whoever does the opposite eg. hiring will get better outcomes as opposed doing it when all do.

Kudos for transparency. On the other hand it reads the same as any other breach press statement I've read. It seems to be clearly carved to not include a single bit more information than necessary(undeniable).

Wish these were written by security people instead of a PR/Compliance/legal taskforce.

I have read this claim multiple times, yet it seems there is trending tiktok content all over other western plattforms like instagram or youtube aswell.

To me all those plattforms are mainly optimising for engagement and tiktok seems to have found a better performing format for that metric. Otherwise the major players wouldn't be copying it.

Wouldn't actively interfering withviral content be detrimental to the platform? Is there anything to back the claim that it is actually happening?

Very visually appealing What did you use to visualize those graphs?

For the same reason people online don't write "sex". To bypass overzealous contentfilters but keep it humanly readable.

L-I-A-B-I-L-I-T-Y

Maybe that's just me, but if I was running a business that let's ChatBots impersonate my staff, I couldn't sleep at night thinking about scenarios, where my support chatbot starts offering steep discounts, refunds or even worse like in that particular case, suggests suic** to a patient with bad mental health.

    contains both unencrypted data, such as website URLs,

No I think this is the worst that could have happened short of loosing the clear-text passwords. Noone is going to stop the attackers from looking for high-value login URLs and than spear-phish the password for the offline vault.

Forcing a password reset onto customers is not going to help LastPass here.

Let's be realistic, just like building codes, medical procedures and car manufacturing sooner or later we will also be subject to regulations. The times where hacking culture and tech was left unbothered are over.

Twenty years ago we were free to do whatever we want, because it didn't matter. Nowadays everyone uses tech as much as they use stairs. You can't build stairs without railings though.

Keeping the window for abuse small is beneficial to the whole industry. Otherwise bad press will put pressure on politicians to "do something about it" resulting in faster and more excessive regulations.

SSO as a requirement is a reliable way to differenciate small business/ hobbist from commercial usage of your product.

I really don't get at whom this SSO-tax hate is directed at?

To me what is missing from this debate is the long time effects of letting this increasingly loose wheel of education for profit gain further momentum.

If you let your educational institutions squeeze every last penny of your future well-educated doesn't that also limit your countries ability to innovate?

If my paycheck would go entirely towards rent and debt payments, I for sure would look for a high paying corporate job instead of startup or freelance work.

Would you want a 10.000USD or the 30.000USD surgery? There is a paradoxon that people associate costs with quality.

High rates never hurt anyone, given that they actually deliver on it.

Just mark it as spam, put it on blacklists and move on. If one decides to put their business domain into the abyss of undeliverability it's a costly mistake they make once.

On a different note, it might be a worthwhile idea to put profiles behind extra protection. An extra click to see contact info verified by a smart captcha might be the least breaking change. @dang

I wonder if there is a hidden dynamic that makes markets with decreasing competition increasingly hostile towards the end user?

Will every industry end up being the next printing/telco in the long run?

Thinking that there is a technical solution to invasion of basic rights is a fallacy that many hackers believe, that I also fall for quite often. In the end you might win the "this policy is ineffective, because there is a way to get around" argument short-term, but you loose the stronger "this policy is a violation of my (kids) established rights" argument long-term.

At the end the only way to win this cat & mouse game is to stand your ground before it starts.

> What an analyst might miss though is that the seemingly-innocuous 'tox' covertly drops another ELF file directly in memory—a sign commonly associated with "fileless malware."

Yeah I agree, but since the whole essay is pretty much a sales pitch for their product, that's to be expected.

Also first-stage dropper are almost always heavyly obfuscated to avoid detection. There isn't anything novel about this and the second-stage malware actually has reasonable detection rates.

The most anticipated Django release for me personally. Async ORM access is a massive quality of life improvememt, same for async CBV. The later is also a blocker for Django Rest Framework going async.

Sure most CRUD applications work perfectly fine using WSGI, but for anyone using other protocols like WS or MQTT in their app this is kind of a big deal.
