| schestowitz | " | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | I'm going to try to install another browser, as Chome and other browsers don't work for me. They don't show anything when I log in (I sent you screenshots). Maybe I'll be logged in with my username in a few hours when it's installed (if that works). | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | In the meantime, I have to raise other concerns. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | The inevitable has happened to Slack. They announced it days and and they can be held criminally accountable | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | To say that Slack got merely “compromised” would be an understatement Yes, it did in fact get compromised, but it’s a lot worse. It’s far worse than a compromise per se. I'm going to explain, starting with the basics. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Slack accumulates all data and never deletes any of it. GDPR should be applicable here and I suspect that EU authorities have not assessed that aspect just yet. What Slack is to users isn’t what it is to Slack, the company. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) issued strongly-worded warnings about Slack and even Microsoft utright banned Slack for security reasons. They very much foresaw the latest disaster. It’s difficult to | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | assess or measure because it’s almost impossible to track the sources of rogue actors’ data. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Slack did not have a mere ‘incident’. They knew about it for quite some time (at higher levels, too). It’s the complete doomsday scenario, an equivalent of having one’s own Jabber server completely and totally hijacked, and all communications in it (names, passwords) stolen. But in the case of Slack millions of businesses are affected. In one fell swoop. Just like that. Even the public sector. Military, hospitals, you name it… | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Slack got cracked, but they won’t admit that. They will lie about the extent of the damage, just like Yahoo and Equifax did (each time waiting months before revealing it was orders of magnitude worse). They game the news cycle that way. People must assume that all data is compromised. Businesses and their clients’ data is on Slack. Even HR stuff, which gets passed around in internal communications. Super-sensitive things like | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | passwords, passports and so on. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Who was Slack data copied by? Mirrored or ‘stolen’, to put it another way? Possibly by rogue military actors that can leverage it for espionage and blackmail, as many do. Covertly. You rarely hear about blackmail because that’s just the nature of the blackmail. It happens silently. Some would say Slack got “hacked” (they typically mean cracked). But it’s actually a lot worse than getting cracked! I'll explain further… | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | About a month ago Slack got to its IPO milestone. But it committed an actual crime by not informing the customers of the breach. They would change passwords etc. had they known. But Slack did not obey the law. It did not inform customers. It announced all this after the IPO, in order to make shareholders liable, and it did so late on a Friday (to minimise press coverage about this likely crime). The shareholders too should sue for | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | concealment of critical information. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Slack knew what had happened and why it waited all this time. This scandal can unfold for quite some time to come. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | It would be wise to move to locally-hosted FOSS. However, that would not in any way undo the damage of having uploaded piles of corporate data to Slack and their compromised servers. In the coming days many companies will come to realise that for years they tactlessly and irresponsibly gave piles of personal/corporate data to Slack and now a bunch of crackers around the world have this data. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | You can expect Slack to stonewall for a while, saying that it’s the weekend anyway. When it comes to Slack, expect what happened with Yahoo; First they say it’s a small incident; Months pass; Then they toss out a note to say it was actually big; A year later (when it’s “old news”): 3 BILLION accounts affected. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | Now, like Yahoo, they will downplay scope of impact. A lot of companies can suffer for years to come (e.g. data breaches, identity theft). | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | I have great concern for the company where I'm working for almost a decade, including our compliance with the law and our clients' compliance with the law. This is why I bring this up. | Jul 21 02:46 |
| schestowitz | I'm going to install something new and see if I can somehow logged in. I already tried, unsuccessfully, from two of my laptops. | Jul 21 02:46 |

| schestowitz | Upon further investigation (the site actively hides this), their CMS seems to be (it's hidden) Django CMS. Does someone in our company have experience with Django CMS? I'm very good at WordPress and Drupal, but Django CMS is very rarely used by anyone. The client actively hides the fact that it uses this, maybe for security reasons (it takes a long time just to figure out what it is they're using)? | Jul 21 03:39 |

| schestowitz | Well if you were to ask me, the saying that “money itself is the root of all evil” is true because it causes people to sin, and multitudes of sin could actually be given birth by this “root”. We could argue that it should be the “love of money” but this makes it hard to give solution to the problem that is called the “love of money”. As humans it is impossible for us to completely stop to sin in this imperfect world doomed | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | to destruction in the future. Thus, one can’t simply say I must stop this madness called the “love of money” and actually stop doing so. | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | While yes it is true that idolatry also gives birth to a multitude of sin and if we actually analyze this further it could be said that idolatry is the actual root of all evil but the problem here is that using the word “idolatry” would make the statement be difficult to fully understand by the usual people because when we say “idolatry” it’s usually tied to an act towards divine beings but in reality idolatry is applicable to | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | just about any object within the scope of reality or imagination. | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | So bottom-line is “money itself is the root of all evil” is a really simplified form of idolatry → love of money → money | Jul 21 06:53 |

| schestowitz | freemedia@share.naturalnews.com - 5 days ago | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | yes, but i often correct people because they misquote it as saying the money itself is the root of evil. @tomgrz | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | actually, i think fear is the root of all evil (the bible probably says that too, but its a bit subtle about it) | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | pachad is the imagined/projected fear that is the root of evil, not yirah. | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | and the love of money is rooted in pachad, as a fear of non-abundance, the fear of lost wealth or lost security that leads to hoarding and sociopathy. | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | so the teaching about the love of money isnt wrong-- its a valid and relevant example of a larger problem. | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | i dont think money changed hands during or prior to the fall. “hey adam-- buddy-- wanna buy an apple?” | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | really the truism is allegorical-- the love of security (wealth) over god, over our better nature, over love-- is what makes us abandon our better nature. the fall of man came from a fear of death over trust in something bigger-- money is an allegory for wealth, security, life. and also a false idol of those things. what makes it idolatry? when we put the lesser things over the greater things in importance, because of pachad (projected/ | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | imagined fear.) | Jul 21 06:53 |
| schestowitz | when we put and keep things in the correct context, when we rank the lesser things as lesser and the greater things as greater, that is tikkun and the end of idolatry-- thats when god (and ourselves) have nothing to be “jealous” of, because we already know things are as they should be. jealousy is also pachad. | Jul 21 06:53 |

| schestowitz | now, you have sources that i dont, that say that the media want to keep rms and torvalds divided. okay, ill buy that. torvalds and rms are both notoriously loud, outspoken individuals. torvalds has as much right to that as rms, but historically he has inched further and further away from criticising monopolies, towards criticising critics of monopolies. and i think his own words are deeply dishonest. | Jul 21 07:08 |
| schestowitz | the double standard of painting torvalds as the voice of reason, while he defends the people attacking the things he gets all the credit for (linus the great liberator, linus invented linux, etc. it all started in 1991.) hes just sat there. and then years later, attacks free software and conflates it with “hate”. | Jul 21 07:08 |
| schestowitz | if theres some kind of media conspiracy to make him into a turncoat, thats one of the most interesting stories that could come out. sure, anything is possible. but branding aside, in my opinion he was always part of the problem. a huge part of the problem. and what has he done to make amends, except nothing? to cut him slack about that (hes never apologised for the way he dishonestly smeared all free software advocates, see link) would | Jul 21 07:08 |
| schestowitz | take a lot of evidence that he isnt just a lying schmuck. but as i always point out, whenever i say these things-- we might as well keep him in charge. the person they will replace him with is going to be even worse. between linus and gkh, linus is the lesser of two shits. as for the kernel, when it becomes fully infested with former novell and microsoft nonsense, we may find people forking the kernel for freedom. and i think a linux fork | Jul 21 07:08 |

| schestowitz | Perhaps a little hyperbole, there… but… You know how we spent ages and ages convincing people to not run shell scripts directly from the internet? To use hashes to determine that online binaries are unmodified? To use web of trust to validate that further? | Jul 21 07:23 |
| schestowitz | I looked into using ‘restic’ as a backup solution. On Windows, their recommended install method is something called ‘scoop’ - looks like an equivalent to Mac homebrew, python’s pip, Node.js’s NPM, etc… And how do you get scoop installed on a Windows machine? | Jul 21 07:23 |

| schestowitz | The link is a redirect to a github url. The linked script itself downloads more scripts from other github urls to include. The Go community ran into an issue not too long ago with a github project being deleted, and another user registering a new project with the same username and project name. | Jul 21 07:23 |
| schestowitz | Obviously, a DNS hijacking attack has always been a possibility and a concern; but here, we have multiple layers of attack surface. scoop.sh is a private DNS name subject to DNS hijacking, takeover upon expiration, etc, which could change the redirect to an attacker’s choice of site. Meanwhile the github entry itself is subject to authentication attacks leading to malicious uploads, pull requests with well concealed hijacks (for example, | Jul 21 07:23 |
| schestowitz | when the script itself pulls from ‘https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lukesampson/scoop/master/lib/core.ps1’, a Unicode attack on that DNS name might make it through a careless code review), as well as the usual suite of social engineering attacks to gain control of the account. Probably a few other attacks I haven’t considered as well. | Jul 21 07:23 |

| schestowitz | Your aggressive criticism is duly noted, but a fair amount of research has gone into this post to take it thus far. | Jul 22 21:52 |
| schestowitz | If you want to understand the depths and reality of the conundrum animal-created works are causing in the copyright arena, I would urge you to read the judgement delivered by the US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in the monkey selfie case. The aim of this structure is not to motivate animals' creativity, but to safeguard it - the monkey selfie case ended in an out of court settlement of which the animal in question was not even a part. | Jul 22 21:52 |
| schestowitz | Of course creativity and AI are pressing concerns-the future is here, and we are not ready for it. However, this issue is equally real-there may not be a Planet of the Apes-like situation tomorrow, but PETA claiming independent creation of an animal's version of Shakespeare is really not a stretch, going by how it jumped into the monkey selfie situation. | Jul 22 21:52 |

| schestowitz | Polyandry (/ˈpɒliˌændri, ˌpɒliˈæn-/; from Greek: πολυ- poly-, “many” and ἀνήρ anēr, “man”) is a form of polygamy in which a woman takes two or more husbands at the same time. Polyandry is contrasted with polygyny, involving one male and two or more females. | Jul 23 05:07 |

| schestowitz | @tomgrz it isn’t that mysterious though: lots of people are very well informed in topics not related to their degrees but their hobbies or interests. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Also Wikipedia is not a lecture book or a school or a science tool: it is a popular aggregation or summary of already published and lectored sources and research and stuff; one does not need high qualifications to read books and summarize their contents. | Jul 23 08:46 |

| schestowitz | Yet we hear quite a lot about some entries being removed capriciously, or entries being posted and reposted after removal because they were misleading. Some people seem to have made a career of posting material, but nobody knows how they operate - whether they are funded, or even a single person. | Jul 23 08:46 |

| schestowitz | @tomgrz while this may happen it is almost never the case (“removing unexpectedly without explanation”). Reposting is stupid, as it just escalates the problem – the solution is to argue for it, especially if it can be justified by facts and not just emotions. And most deletions are up for voting and discussion anyway. Undeletions happen as well, same way. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | If something is misleading and gets deleted, well, I do not see the problem here. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | I do not see how the knowledge about the editors would help judging the articles they have created. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Also, this is at least three different and unrelated topics. In one paragraph of yours. I can’t follow your chain of thought. | Jul 23 08:46 |

| schestowitz | @tom grz Yet we hear quite a lot about some entries being removed capriciously | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | For example women and people in color are often deleted. Eg. Clarice Phelps. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | That went so far, that a disagreeing admin (Rama) was demoted for restoring the article (Arbitration Committee case). | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Fram can get away with harassment, but restoring a black woman’s article is soo destructive, that it must be punished. The article is also prevented from recreation (salted) This is only one example of what happens routinely. These are the values of the English Wikipedia community. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Some people seem to have made a career | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Indeed, there are many job postings for wikipedia editing… some of them declare the paid editing, some don’t. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Bigger problem is the hidden agendas of the big money businesses, for ex. big pharma. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | Some editors and admins spend hours every day to monitor pages of interest. If an editor posts materials unfavorable to their agenda, it gets reverted, the editor is attacked (even harassed), creating a situation, where the unwelcome editor can be blocked. The attacking editors are protected by the title “editor in good standing” (it’s a made-up concept, not in the policies). | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | The most active and influential admins, who handle these disputes always in favor of the editors living (leaching) on wikipedia, are active 7*12 hours a week. Guess where their income comes from: not from the WMF. | Jul 23 08:46 |

| schestowitz | @Teegarden unfortunately I can only review specified cases. Phelps was rejected due to lack of reliable sources, and seems not a big controversy for me. (Rama was unwise to revert instead of discussing it first, but I slightly disagree with the ArbCom here.) The other mentions of yours did not contain specifics. | Jul 23 08:46 |
| schestowitz | I am usually open to briefly review cases of alleged bias but unfortunately it is pretty rare that I find a real case for review; most of the time the articles are rejected due to factual problems and not gender/minority/oppression ones; in fact, my guess would be the same ratio for non-gender-sensitive/non-minority/non-oppressed people with similar factual or source problems, but obviosuly there are no minority fighters for non-minority | Jul 23 08:46 |

| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-ipkitten.blogspot.com | Applying the Actavis questions to numerical limitations: Regen Lab v Estar - The IPKat | Jul 27 03:43 | |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | IPKat also made reference to a recent decision 4b O 117/16 of 5 June 2018 by the district court (LG) Duesseldorf, which we briefly discuss here and is now be publicly available (http://bit.ly/LGDuesseldorf_4b_O_117_16). | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | The decision deals with a method for preparing a cell composition wherein the main claim comprises the feature "buffered sodium citrate solution of 0.10 M". The court concluded that literal patent infringement and infringement under the doctrine of equivalents (DoE) was denied for an embodiment having a concentration of 0.109 M (i.e. 9% above the claimed value). Besides, a further claim feature (polyester-based gel) was also considered to | Jul 27 03:43 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.justiz.nrw.de | Landgericht Düsseldorf, 4b O 117/16 | Jul 27 03:43 | |
| schestowitz | be not fulfilled. | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | Since the concentration of 0.109 M was not regarded to be within typical tolerances, the court further assessed the criticality of the claimed concentration for the desired effect. As no reason was found why the claim was restricted to one single value, a skilled person would not have found an embodiment with 0.109 M as providing the same effect in accordance with the claimed value (corresponding to the third DoE question, which is: “ | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | Are the considerations that the person skilled in the art had to apply oriented to the technical teaching of the patent claim in such a way that the person skilled in the art took the variant into account as being an equivalent solution?”). | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | The LG Duesseldorf decision confirms that measuring/manufacturing tolerances have to be considered when assessing literal infringement. Furthermore, the DoE does not expand the claim scope in the absence of a broader teaching in the patent. | Jul 27 03:43 |
| schestowitz | We look forward to further Decisions to be handed down regarding numerical values. | Jul 27 03:43 |

| schestowitz | What’s now Italy was, not that long ago, several independent states. Same with Germany. So was the unification of all these independent states into large nation-states a move in the wrong direction? If not, why was the EU a move in the wrong direction?

| schestowitz | it is the direction things tend to go in, whether its good or bad. are you trying to say that because it happened and tends to, that makes it a good thing? or perhaps if it werent, everybody would demand it not unite? | Jul 27 21:08 |
| schestowitz | put another way entirely-- what if it werent a good thing? would that automatically result in it disbanding? or might it remain “united” regardless of whether it made people happy, or they simply tolerated it? | Jul 27 21:08 |

| schestowitz | People often assume that a more local government is a more reasonable one, but the history of the USA doesn’t seem to support or refute that. | Jul 27 21:08 |
| schestowitz | Some times large states fracture into smaller ones (Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, etc.) and sometimes they combine into larger states. I haven’t noticed any correlation between liberty and state size. I have noticed that there are millions of Americans who expect me to be horrified at the prospect of a one-world-state. As you might guess, it doesn’t terrify me. | Jul 27 21:08 |
| schestowitz | Actually, I think we should all be allowed to live and work anywhere we please. Borders seem anti-liberty. Does that require a one-world-state? The experience of the EU suggests not. | Jul 27 21:08 |
| schestowitz | In fact, I think it might be a better idea to have a world of thousands of different states, all part of one customs and monetary union where free movement of people and goods is guaranteed. | Jul 27 21:08 |

| schestowitz | In the novel, what was the US is a patchwork of enclaves (some of which are gated “burbclaves”) of various franchise states. One, for example, is called Mr. Lee’s Greater Hong Kong. There is still a USA, but when the US President enters the story, no one recognizes his name. The USA, as a government, just isn’t that important anymore. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | When I first read the novel, it blew me away, even though I had already read The Diamond Age. (I sometimes think it’s a pity that high-speed pizza delivery is a thing of the past.) The protagonist of the novel is called Hiro Protagonist, and he has side-kick called YT (for Yours Truly), who always refers to herself in the third person. Sometimes people think she’s calling herself Whitey*. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | Here’s how it starts. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | The Deliverator belongs to an elite order, a hallowed subcategory. He’s got esprit up to here. Right now, he is preparing to carry out his third mission of the night. His uniform is black as activated charcoal, filtering the very light out of the air. A bullet will bounce off its arachnofiber weave like a wren hitting a patio door, but excess perspiration wafts through it like a breeze through a freshly napalmed forest, Where his body | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | has bony extremities, the suit has sintered armorgel: feels like gritty jello, protects like a stack of telephone books. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | When they gave him the job, they gave him a gun. The Deliverator never deals in cash, but someone might come after him anyway—might want his car, or his cargo. The gun is tiny, acm-styled, lightweight, the kind of gun a fashion designer would carry; it fires teensy darts that fly at five times the velocity of an SR-71 spy plane, and when you get done using it, you have to plug it into the cigarette lighter, because it runs on | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | electricity. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | The Deliverator never pulled that gun in anger, or in fear. He pulled it once in Gila Highlands. Some punks in Gila Highlands, a fancy Burbclave, wanted themselves a delivery, and they didn’t want to pay for it. Thought they would impress the Deliverator with a baseball bat. The Deliverator took out his gun, centered its laser doohickey on that poised Louisville Slugger, fired it. The recoil was immense, as though the weapon had blown | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | up in his hand. The middle third of the baseball bat turned into a column of burning sawdust accelerating in all directions like a bursting star. Punk ended up holding this bat handle with milky smoke pouring out the end. Stupid look on his face. Didn’t get nothing but trouble from the Deliverator. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | Since then the Deliverator has kept the gun in the glove compartment and relied, instead, on a matched set of samurai swords, which have always been his weapon of choice anyhow. The punks in Gila Highlands weren’t afraid of the gun, so the Deliverator was forced to use it. But swords need no demonstrations. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | The Deliverator’s car has enough potential energy packed into its batteries to fire a pound of bacon into the Asteroid Belt. Unlike a bimbo box or a Burb beater, the Deliverator’s car unloads that power through gaping, gleaming, polished sphincters. When the Deliverator puts the hammer down, shit happens. You want to talk contact patches? Your car’s tires have tiny contact patches, talk to the asphalt in four places the size of your | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | tongue. The Deliverator’s car has big sticky tires with contact patches the size of a fat lady’s thighs. The Deliverator is in touch with the road, starts like a bad day, stops on a peseta. | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | Why is the Deliverator so equipped? Because people rely on him. He is a role model. This is America. People do whatever the fuck they feel like doing, you got a problem with that? Because they have a right to. And because they have guns and no one can fucking stop them. As a result, this country has one of the worst economies in the world. When it gets down to it—talking trade balances here—once we’ve brain-drained all our | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | technology into other countries, once things have evened out, they’re making cars in Bolivia and microwave ovens in Tadzhikistan and selling them here—once our edge in natural resources has been made irrelevant by giant Hong Kong ships and dirigibles that can ship North Dakota all the way to New Zealand for a nickel—once the Invisible Hand has taken all those historical inequities and smeared them out into a broad global layer of | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | what a Pakistani brickmaker would consider to be prosperity—y’know what? There’s only four things we do better than anyone else: | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | music | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | movies | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | microcode (software) | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | high-speed pizza delivery | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | The Deliverator used to make software. Still does, sometimes. But if life were a mellow elementary school run by well-meaning education Ph.D.s, the Deliverator’s report card would say: “Hiro is so bright and creative but needs to work harder on his cooperation skills.” | Jul 27 21:09 |
| schestowitz | So now he has this other job. No brightness or creativity involved—but no cooperation either. Just a single principle: The Deliverator stands tall, your pie in thirty minutes or you can have it free, shoot the driver, take his car, file a class-action suit. The Deliverator has been working this job for six months, a rich and lengthy tenure by his standards, and has never delivered a pizza in more than twenty-one minutes. | Jul 27 21:09 |

| schestowitz | the problem is that most of them dont work. otherwise i would keep my phone in one. (which would diminish the battery unless its in airplane mode. which we know you cant rely on.) | Jul 27 21:19 |
| schestowitz | the simple solution becomes not a cage, but battery removal. and thats the standard practice (afaik) for journalists in certain situations. of course if you have a bag for your iphone, and it works, great. but i dont think all of those bags work. | Jul 27 21:19 |

| schestowitz | personally i would just cut a hole in the back. this is an obvious call for plastic over metal, though some people would go farther than i would. i would take the back off first, since im not goofy enough to try to cut into a compartment that holds li-ion anything. and if the back is glued or something like that and i cant do that, ill take it back. | Jul 27 21:19 |
