schestowitz-piin few wordsApr 02 06:38
techrights-sec2A well-practiced preventative method would have stopped the bug in its tracks.Apr 02 06:39
techrights-sec2Do like OpenBSD does and have two other developers review and audit eachApr 02 06:39

techrights-sec2archival format compared to other compression methods. Apr 02 06:39

schestowitz-pipiopularity does not make policyApr 02 06:40
techrights-sec2I suspect the pension attacks are to draw attention away from other things.Apr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2The coalition in power here is out to cause as much pain and sufferingApr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2as they can get away with, so the strikes will have no effect on themApr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2and the labor unions must find /additional/ means to prevent the plannedApr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2elimination of colletive bargaining.  Apr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2The main problem party, the True Finns, is not useful in panel debates either.Apr 02 06:45
techrights-sec2They just bleat pre-written talking points until cut off, in order toApr 02 06:45

techrights-sec2That's an improvement.  IRC is otherwise a big time sink.Apr 02 06:47
techrights-sec2An additional point in the Google settlement is that the mitigations Apr 02 06:47
techrights-sec2only apply for 5 years.  So they are partially off the hook immediatelyApr 02 06:47
techrights-sec2and entirely off the hook in 60 months.  Apr 02 06:47
techrights-sec2Yes, it'll be a few days before it is timely to analyze the xz incident.Apr 02 06:47
