The biggest problem, I think, that happened with web is they messed up the offline-cache function.
It would be great if the industry had a couple of years of experience and new software deployed which worked with a good standard. The hardware we have now can take it just fine.
Here’s a snapshot: x265 and libvpx demonstrate superior compression performance compared to x264, with bitrate savings reaching up to 50% especially at the higher resolutions. x265 outperforms libvpx for almost all resolutions and quality metrics, but the performance gap narrows (or even reverses) at 1080p."
I'm sure we'll eventually see if WhatsApp really is using the Signal system correctly all the time. I mean this is Facebook they even follow you around even if you've never even signed up for Facebook.
Our government doesn't declare war. We just invent some moralistic rationales about the "threat" to our "security" and then we crank up our mass media propaganda system to "sell" the war before we attack.:(
Yep, declare war on a thing/word/concept that will solve everything.;-)
I'm sorry, but HTML5 no control over their machines ? What are you talking about ?
OS and devices manufactures like Apple, Microsoft and Google are very busy trying to take control of your machines and your data this seems like a much worse situation.
This is what the specification has in the introduction:
"The Battery Status API can be used to defer or scale back work when the device is not charging in or is low on battery. An archetype of an advanced web application, a web-based email client, may check the server for new email every few seconds if the device is charging, but do so less frequently if the device is not charging or is low on battery. Another example is a web-based word processor which could monitor the battery level and save changes before the battery runs out to prevent data loss. "
Well, indirectly it is going to be a win for PostgreSQL of course: EnterpriseDB spends money/developer time on PostgreSQL. The more contracts EnterpriseDB has, the more money they can spent on PostgreSQL developers.
If I'm not mistaken the guy from MIcrosoft that was going to give a presentation in Germany about Stuxnet had an accident, a car hit him while walking on the sidewalk.
Of course it's hard to place Donald Trump in one of the buckets. He has no opinion. It's one now, an other the day after and other the day after that.
For Donald Trump winning is more important that anything else, not truth or making clear what his plans are for the country. And some people like what is perceived a strong leader. He's just a bullshitter.
This isn't automatically running Javascript inside the browser or the email program. This attack is about tricking the user in running an attachment.
Which means in this case it would use Windows Scripting Host to execute the Javascript (could have been VBscript as well). Could have been a Powershell file or whatever, exe-file, it doesn't matter.
Kind of expected they included an encryption library, if it's running in Windows Scripting Host they could probably just have used existing Windows API to do encryption, right ?

But honestly, can you survive on making an app ? Because most hardly make any money.
This is still true:
"Quote from Netflix on their blog regarding this:

What some people don't seem to understand is:
- name calling happens in business to, all the time.
- but OpenBSD and Linux development happens in the open
That doesn't stop people from deploying it in real life: https://media.ccc.de/v/31c3_-_... actually very interesting to see what people do/try to do.
That is exactly what they are doing.
Yep, governments and others haven't really noticed yet.
If you run your own server with the website/relay software then it really is full end2end and based on the proper crypto, etc.
People will figure this out eventually.
Also you can easily run your own Jitsi bridge on a device you control.
Someone should make a simple to install website you can put on your own server somewhere which works like this:
https://appear.in/
It probably already exists somewhere.

Poppycock.

War on drugs, war on terror, what's next ?
I think it's good people try new things.
Should it become the new default for everyone everywhere immediately, obviously not.

Employing the correct encryption helps a lot.

Learn to see the forest, not the threes.
Can I suggest not to look for jobs that ask you do just one thing.
Many of the things learned in one language or part of IT can be used/applied in an other.
If using a different language makes what you learned from other languages obsolete you are doing it wrong.
NSA has many different departments that don't work together. Ha ! Even Microsoft has that. :-)
If life expectancy isn't going up, that just means other things might be killing us before these diseases could, right ?
May you live long and happy.
They did kill people in Iran:

There were other strange events.

Actually, looks more like information about the IP-address, not the domain. Anyway, probably not important.
Agree, sorry, my mistake. That's a the right bucket. It's good to have some knowledgeable people about Harry Potter on this site. ;-)
The UK is a democracy... or maybe it just acts like one ?
I'll just leave this video here about how well elections work in the UK:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
But hey, Slashdot from the US. In the US things are a lot worse than in the UK, so I guess that means the UK is doing fine right ?
It would make me laugh if it wasn't such a fucked up mess..

Not sure why you think this applies here.
