I came across this article today [1] where a popular journalist in India was tricked to think they had a job offer at a prominent University by an elaborate phishing scam.After this I started thinking about the security of modern day domain redirects in the context of phishing. One could register thexyz.edu or something similar that's close enough to xyz.edu for phishing and then directly...
The industry has convinced the average user of consumer hardware that PPA (Power,Performance,Area) is all that needs to get better with generational improvements. Hoping that the concerning aspects of security and reliability that have come to light in the recent past changes this.

I submitted a feature request to GitHub recently and was wondering if this really made sense.Two situations: 1. Academic courses (MOOCs included) require students not to publish progress/code publicly during a course 2. You worked on a personal project, which you don't want to make public because you believe you have other plans with it. But you still want to be able to show it to selected...
Is mirroring a good option? (lets say mirror github repos to gitlab so that if you lost access to the former, you still would have your data). Local backups don't tend to be reliable in terms of maintenance and long term archival costs.
Have consolidated tech companies created a risk of single point of failure OR are they safe to be considered too big to fail?What would be the consequence of it on the internet as we know it? Are we prepared?When it's a company like Google you're talking about, it's just hard to imagine a day when platforms like YouTube or Gmail might be killed off.Are there legal clauses that would prevent...
Knowledge base organization gets discussed frequently on HN. I understand your frustration though, I've always longed to see a one fit for all platforms though. Onenote sure shows a lot of potential but is probably limited by the fact that MS wants to keep it as close to their office suite as possible.
I was just reading this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23832437 and keep seeing this every once in a while. What flow do you follow to backup years or your projects from such platforms?
Or is it intended to be a product marketing brochure of sorts? For example, https://hubs.ly/H0r91td0If you find them useful, do you have any tips for new students stepping into the industry on reading whitepapers.
It would make migrating between services easier which is good for everyone. How do such standards get conceived or make progress in general?
Have there been identified that exploited vulnerabilities like Meltdown/Spectre before researchers discovered and disclosed it through proper channels? Just trying to understand the impact & lifecycle of dealing with vulnerabilities (esp. in h/w)
Given that this is a really vast domain (and also influenced by the development in other domains such as deep learning), I'm trying to understand what are the skills that would really help to have for students entering the industry.As a side note, I recently listened to the "On the metal" podcast with Jon Masters and it had good information on what are the current trends in this field.
Even if it's done locally on device, where would they get the training data set for it to work so well?Same goes for reply response, follow-up reminders and other new features that if offers.
