It looks like CopperheadOS has managed to upstream quite a number of mitigations! Bravo to them.

I don&#x27;t think you would have a problem getting people to want to hire you without a degree. What you should really look into (and I had to do this as well, though not moving from Russia) is what countries you can easily get a visa to without a degree (even if an employer is willing to hire you). In my case I had to first get my Australian citizenship (originally Ukrainian, but Australian resident at the time) to qualify for a Working Holiday visa to Europe to make my preferred move (then looked for employment once there).<p>Another option might be to try to get a job at a Russian branch of an international company - sometimes working at a local office for a year or so can legally make transferring overseas within the same company easier.

&gt; Or are you saying it&#x27;s all our fault as usual?<p>I dunno. Do all people have the right to feel important and powerful, even when don&#x27;t work in the framework of capitalism and modern economics to do so? Is that not their own fault for not integrating into the modern system like China, South Korea, or Singapore have?<p>&gt; I&#x27;m probably missing something but how has the West worked hard to make Muslims feel impotent?<p>Various wars, alliances, propping up Israel, and British Empire before that. Muslims in general don&#x27;t want to see other Muslims attacked by non-Muslims. They are fine if Muslims attack each other though.

&gt; I also seem to remember something about consumer protection laws, so maybe the people who make the things that catch on fire should be bankrupt or in jail.<p>People who <i>make</i> (or sell) those things might be in a completely different jurisdiction that is not bound by your consumer protection laws.

&gt; The shutter speed was probably a little slower than for the other photos in order for him to get into position, which explains why he seems to be moving and why the glow from his flashlight looks like a lightning flash. The graininess of the photo, though, is likely due to the radiation.<p>Yeah, wouldn&#x27;t that have been exotic. Having worked many years with high end scanning and digitizing photographs from the 1850 to today I can say that apparent grain in a photo from the 80s is not a strange thing, especially if it&#x27;s a high ISO film. Correcting a bad exposure when post processing enhances that grain. The &quot;graininess&quot; here looks more like interpolation artifacts after upressing, possibly a highly compressed JPEG, though.

I&#x27;d prefer rigorous licencing and somewhat expensive authentication to the current USB free for all where a £5 charger can destroy your £500 device.<p>If we end up replacing the current market where chargers run £1-£30 with one where they&#x27;re £8-£35, but can be confident of reasonable levels of basic electrical functionality and safety, I&#x27;d be happy enough.

To take this work more seriously I miss the discussion of the potential negative effect of their patches. The way it&#x27;s presented, it gives the false impression that &quot;it will just work.&quot;<p>However, their premise of &quot;just wake the idle cores as soon as there are threads to run&quot; can actually be harmful in some real-life scenarios, especially regarding the additional power use and the slowdown introduced by switching from the filled to the empty caches.<p>Intuitively, as they demonstrate the &quot;speedup&quot; on some specific programs using some specific patterns I&#x27;d expect that some specific programs and patterns exist that don&#x27;t necessary benefit from every change they present.

I lived in a country where $10 was a normal day wage. Lots and lots of iPhones there. It is a choice, THEIR choice. It is not up to you (or me) to be snobby and tell them not to buy expensive products because they don&#x27;t earn enough money to do so.<p>When the charger that comes with the product breaks they&#x27;ll need another one. If they can buy a cheap one that &quot;just works&quot; then yes that will make a difference. Even if the cheap one isn&#x27;t certified. Not all of them are the horrific death traps that have been highlighted.

I don&#x27;t know which, &quot;they&quot; you are referring to here - the end customer, the standards body, the charger manufacturer, or the manufacturer of the equipment being charged?<p>The customer quite often just wants the cheapest price, the charger manufacturer doesn&#x27;t care about anything other than selling lots of chargers, the two groups that do care, the Standard Body, and the manufacturers of the equipment being charged do care about energy quality and equipment protection. In the case of the manufacturer of the equipment being charged - you are right, they can take steps to protect their equipment, but it costs a bit of money to engineer a subsystem to detect a 100 watt charge and protect the upstream gear - likely cheaper just to query and confirm that the downstream device is certified and then trust it (somewhat). You still need the protection (defense in depth) - but starting off with certified chargers certainly helps. The standards body, really has every incentive to ensure that the only certified vendors can manufacture chargers that will be (broadly) accepted.

I&#x27;m sympathetic to Jeremy&#x27;s case, which is actually <i>extremely common</i> in Silicon Valley (group of people get together informally to work on a startup, nothing serious or 100% legally tied up, group of people break apart, idea takes off, legal issues ensue).<p>But anyone taking either Sam <i>or</i> Jeremy&#x27;s word at face value has no idea what they&#x27;re talking about. You have no basis to trust Sam <i>or</i> Jeremy in this hundred-million-dollar matter. <i>Both</i> sides have hundreds of millions of reasons to exaggerate or distort their case.

We don&#x27;t know that yet, they could just hand out keys with a PKI handled by a third party, once the device and manufacturing process are validated.<p>But: it will cost money, and someone will have to foot the bill. USB is one of the most open and universal standards out there, and it is sad that is has come to this, since it could be needed for safety (the amount of power it manages is no longer negligible).

In this case, the problem is not how much power the computer &quot;feeds&quot; to the phone, the problem is how much amperage the phone draws from the computer. The bad Type-C cable can be incorrectly configured to indicate to the phone that the Type-A computer end can provide more amps than it actually can, and then the phone will provide less effective resistance across the 5v power wires than is appropriate. In this case it&#x27;s more likely to damage the USB port on the computer.<p>It&#x27;s also theoretically possible that this cheap cable could be wired very wrong and short some power wires itself. But there was, like, only one cable people have found on amazon that was that ridiculous ...

My surge protector comes with a $10,000 mini-insurance policy if it fails to protect against a surge. It seems like something similar could be done for any market: Buy up 10,000 USB chargers for cheap, have them all inspected, underwrite an insurance policy that reimburses the customer for manufacturing defects, and charge more. Have a backup policy with a big insurance company for the sole purpose of assuring customers that they have someone to file a claim with in the event that you&#x27;re bankrupt.<p>You don&#x27;t even need a standards consortium to do it.

&gt; What you should really look into (and I had to do this as well, though not moving from Russia) is what countries you can easily get a visa to without a degree<p>I did not think of that option, thank you.

And yet the guy with &quot;a PhD in coffee shops&quot; in the original article says he thinks they contributed to political <i>stability</i> in 18th Century England because they give people a place to rant and feel better afterwards...<p>(I never was convinced that you feel better after a rant, though. Rather, you have just worked out your &quot;angry muscles&quot;.)

&gt;offering him $100k<p>you&#x27;re kidding? i mean it can&#x27;t be real. It is like an insult on top of the original insult. When i first read sama&#x27;s post mentioning the offer without the actual number, i was making bets with myself whether they offered $10M, and was guessing whether the guy was right walking away from money like this. $100k never even crossed my mind :) That is the kind of greed that really kills luck (and getting $1B or just $990M for the Cruise is a Vegas scale luck)<p>Edit: read in the other comments that from original $100k the offer has now reached $4.5M. That is one &quot;hockey stick&quot;! Giving such low insulting start, my bet would be that instead of $10M - originally reasonable offer - the thing, with all the court filings, lawyers and emotions, will reach closure close to $100M, definitely crossing the $50M. Btw, where is my popcorn, this Cruise story is basically episode 0 of the season 3 of &quot;SV&quot; :)

I assume you mostly talk to expatriates - the sentiment in Russia is generally strongly nostalgic, and the majority are buying into Putin&#x27;s promise to &quot;make Russia great again&quot; (I transliterate but you get my point).<p>I was in volgograd not long ago, the locals now exclusively call is stalingrad once more, they were playing the communist international up by rossiya-matushka, people were crying and singing along, young and old.<p>In astrakhan they&#x27;re flying the hammer and sickle above government buildings, along with the tricolor.<p>Did it ever even go away?

Quite interesting that people could only see barbarism outside, only the straw in the eyes of others: How is that possible than an North American entity talking about barbarism totally ignores the extermination of native Americans?<p>Is there any better year 0 than after almost all Indians have been killed and their land stolen?<p>And yet, totally ignored by the author. History is written by the winners. Goering used to say that they only wanted to do in Eastern Europe what (North)Americans had already accomplished.<p>If you go to Mexico most people is Indian or mixed blood, you can see in their faces. On the US less than 1% of the population is Indian.<p>So you go to latin America and you hear about all the abuses of Spain, the Spain that forbid slavery in 1512. They care because they are the descendants of the Indians.<p>The same happened in Australia, they exterminated the native population and now nobody cares.

Thanks for the links! This info is kinda hard to find if you&#x27;re not in the loop.<p>But it looks like low level optimization is a low priority for the Rust project at the moment.<p>(prefetch is rejected b&#x2F;c of insufficient testing and branch hinting might get hampered b&#x2F;c Rust developers aren&#x27;t trusted to use them correctly)<p>Maybe I&#x27;ll revisit it in the future! Appreciate the help =)

The old file formats which get to be unreadable just because they are &quot;old&quot; and the newer programs don&#x27;t support them anymore is much more serious issue than many people think.<p>I hazily remember having the Outlook PST files as the mail archives and then later not being able to recover most of the metadata of the mails, not even programmatically, as the PST was designed even before the &quot;internet standards&quot; were something they&#x27;d worry.<p>GPG also removed the support for the old encrypted files and the old keys since 2.1: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gnupg.org&#x2F;faq&#x2F;whats-new-in-2.1.html#nopgp2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gnupg.org&#x2F;faq&#x2F;whats-new-in-2.1.html#nopgp2</a> which signifies the dangers of using it in archival contexts. The disk encryption tools can be even more problematic, being dependent on the particular OS versions.

Well, it is certainly <i>fun</i>.<p>I never bothered to count exact numbers, but from my experience, close to two thirds of all people, when presented with root shell and no consequences, will run rm -rf in some way.<p>Humble ones issue &quot;rm -rf &#x2F;usr&quot; or &quot;rm -rf &#x2F;lib&quot;, others go straight to &quot;&#x2F;bin&#x2F;rm -rf &#x2F;&quot;. I&#x27;ve seen one person do &quot;rm -rf &#x2F;* &quot;, immediately followed by &quot;find &#x2F; -delete&quot;. I&#x27;d really like to take a peek on his&#x2F;her thought process at that moment, looked like the desire of destruction was really strong in that one particular brain ;-)<p>So yeah, while its not particularly useful one, there&#x27;s indeed a situation where one definitely <i>want</i> to run it.<p>disclaimer: I run SELinux playbox with free root access and session recording, and peeking into what others do is also <i>fun</i>.<p>Edit: rm minus rf slash asterisk formatting.

For me it does, depending on the project. (Using emacs&#x2F;magit, having a dedicated buffer just for magit.)<p>I want to keep on top of my current branch, what is untracked, what is unstaged and staged, quick diffing, etc. It actually helps a lot with productivity since I don&#x27;t have to actively query for this information when it&#x27;s all in one screen.<p>If I used another editor, I would like to have similar features. Maybe it can be done, but I am quite fluent in magit already, and one major thing keeping me from moving to another text editor for my current projects (if it actually mattered.)

Maybe Walgreens or Safeway should simply open a cheap unbranded store down the road that sells the typical thief goods in a no name version at competitive street prices, catering to the people who need that stuff but can&#x27;t afford it at store price. That would dry up the stolen goods market. Their normal customers wouldn&#x27;t buy there anyway, if the store is sufficiently awkward.

Yeah this is exactly how I feel. This was already possible and it&#x27;s not like companies aren&#x27;t doing it. Apple is the most notable offender, every iPhone Lightning cable sold comes with a security chip; if the chip&#x27;s not there, the phone won&#x27;t charge. Normally this would be a problem for counterfeit cable sellers, but Chinese manufacturers have reverse engineered the chip hence customers don&#x27;t notice a problem.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cultofmac.com&#x2F;246236&#x2F;ios-7-killed-off-unlicensed-lightning-cables-but-heres-a-fix-that-might-work-for-you&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cultofmac.com&#x2F;246236&#x2F;ios-7-killed-off-unlicensed-...</a>

I wonder if the &quot;shunning&quot; might have been caused by civil defence training which might have taught people to avoid people from fall-out contaminated areas unless they had been decontaminated?<p>Obviously not directly applicable but in a crisis it might be the kind of mistake people would make.
