- it received "digital confirmation of data destruction"
- it had been informed that no Instructure customers would be extorted as a result of the incident
- the agreement covers all affected customers, with no need for individuals to engage with the hackers
I'm 100% sure criminals would never lie. It's bad for business. I'm also 100% sure they didn't create any additional means for future compromise.
Do you really mean that if your git repo were corrupted, restoring a snapshot of the repo from backups wouldn't work? If that's true, then it sounds like your backup system is broken. The hashes after restoring ought to be identical to what they were before the backup.
If git used the files' iNode numbers for its hashes, then I could understand how a filesystem-based backup/restore might not really work; you'd have to backup at the block level instead. But git doesn't use the iNode numbers.
git isn't magical. It only knows files. It doesn't know if you moved the repo, copied the the repo, or restored the repo from a ten year old backup. I have moved git repos around plenty of times, `cp -a`ed directories with repos, tared and un-tared directories that contain repos, and the copies have always Just Worked without any hash mismatches.
mkdir ~/test. cd ~/test. git init, touch test.txt, git add test.txt and git commit. cp -a ~/test ~/test2. cd ~/test2 and check out the backup repo. The backup is valid. Then simulate a disaster with rm -rf ~/test. Then recover from the disaster with cp -a ~/test2 ~/test and you've just restored a repo from filesystem-level backup. The resulting repo works perfectly and its hashes aren't off. git has no idea you deleted and restored under its nose. Try it yourself.
What am I missing? I'm not surprised to be called idiotic, and the shoe often fits. But I'm surprised to be called that over this.
My router's hardware's parts were made in China. Its software was made as a worldwide effort but the team seems to be officially based in the Netherlands. And I'm not asking my government's permission for updating either one. Trumptards and their micromanaging far-left centralized-economic-planners can go fuck themselves. Keep your damn dirty ape hands off my computers, comrade.
Different areas I guess. Around here almost everyone I know owns a 4x4 SUV or Truck that is the 'winter beater'. You don't want the salt and potholes ruining your nice car and often the fact it's a car at all means you are going to be high sided on the streets that almost never get plowed before you need to go anywhere. Hell it's already May and I still can't take the motor cycle out because the roads are just hole after hole.
You can call it a winter beater or the 'work vehicle' that you use for towing, trips to the gardening supply, dealing with winter, and general hauling. I see it with my friends who live on way less than 100k a year and with my friends who live on way more. It's not a status or wealth thing. I'd say it's much less likely to be seen with wealth. Thats why I get to laugh at the guy trying to drive a maserati in our winters wondering why he's stuck on the road.
It's just ordinary slang.
Come to the glorious midwest where you get brutal cold winters and brutal hot summers, but no spring or fall.
When you mentioned a weekly fill up it got me thinking. How do you store an EV for the season?
Around here you have your summer car and your winter beater. Sure you drive the winter beater all year round to pickup landscaping materials and such, but your summer car never hits those pot holes and salt.
My reading suggests long term storage of an EV is not ideal.
I wish usps would charge $30 a letter to my home. Every day I have to walk to the mailbox, collect trash, throw it away. Maybe once a year i receive real mail.
Is there room for consciousness to manifest in a brain?
If the data center is primarily intended for use by (exclusively or nearly exclusively) the people in the neighborhood, sure, it could make sense. I know this is quaint and out-of-date but one can imagine a neighborhood squid cache, NNTP server, modern Netflix cache, etc for the neighborhood. Have it be connectable by a high-speed neighborhood LAN, to share the 'hood's WAN.
Just a classic neighborhood network coop, but with some added caching services, which is what would cause it to be called a "datacenter" instead of a "router."
As if that would really happen. And that's sure not what this is.
Can anybody say what this app does (other than report your GPS location)? Does it do anything you can't do with a web browser and going to
Once again, I'm not shocked by the percentage laid off, but I'm shocked by the number of individuals. If 700 people was 14% of their workforce, then this company had about a hundred times as many employees as I would have guessed. Not that my guesses are particularly well-informed, but when I look at what this company's product appears to be and compare it to my own experiences, I can't help but make guesses that are apparently 99% off! (I'm that dumb!?)
What do employees at these large companies do all day? Why were they hired in the first place, or why weren't they laid off many years ago? I just don't get it.
I don't mean it as a put-down of their products, but on the surface it just doesn't look like their thousands of employees do anything bigger or more complicated than my dozen-developers-sized team (which is, itself, much larger than the teams I've been on in previous decades). Is everyone's productivity just
Or is the answer in some other direction? Part of me thinks I should just drop it, and accept that I really don't know jack shit about the profession I've had for the last 40 years.
I can't really say it's bad for it to be doing these seemingly-bad things, until I know the answer to this: what is the app's intended purpose? Why would/should a person use it?
If it's intended to inconvenience/expose/punish users for trying to find out things about the White House, then maybe the application is doing the right thing.
It’s obvious the criteria is going to be that all answers the AI gives are "not woke". This has absolutely nothing to do with safety, it is censorship.
