"Interpreter?...from the embassy?"
Trumps envoy, Witkoff, used a Russian agent as his interpreter thinking she was from the US Embbassy.
They're so painfully dumb.
@kevinrothrock @cellularmoose I think you’re being a little obtuse, not even Ukrainians would recommend their system they’ve struggled with corruption and fraud, and still do. This entire thing is written with the context of a country at war. Unity and cooperation between opposition but not submission, etc.
@kevinrothrock @cellularmoose have you studied many other countries fighting off an invasion/occupying force that did it better? Or is it a principled position or vibes based ick you’re expressing?
For example how do they compare to Norway? Or Finland? In my opinion they’re doing pretty well.
@mattblaze It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.
@Viss GCC High E5 holder here. I think the only take is that if you use Microsoft for anything you’re not serious about security. Period. It’s impossible to secure.
They just don’t care. There are insane defaults. Foot-guns that their own security team shoot themselves with, and on and on.
Alec MuffettHey, global citizens, aren’t you glad that you have end-to-end encrypted messenger systems that meaningfully protect your chat content without being scanned or filtered by the government?

Kevin BeaumontKids nowadays get Chromebooks at college, MacBooks for uni, use Android or iOS on their phones and game on PlayStation 5 and Switch.
Windows is this legacy thing forced on them by old people in business.
@Viss @jerry It was cool. We copied a bunch of stuff FB were doing with their Tao realtime detection system too. The thing is, we didn’t have the team or the tools to implement this system when I moved to Patreon. Instead we opted to just send magic links to non-2fa’d users logging in from a new browser or if they were in a new city, state or country ( in addition to basic rate limiting/captcha stuff), it only fired for less than 1% of logins and cut down on account takeovers via password stuffing by a truly massive amount. No fancy stats or machine learning, just you’re logging in from a new place… click the link in the email to prove it’s you.

The key insight is to find your login failure to success ratio, it remains remarkably steady (with the exception of holidays eg. Christmas). If the failure rate goes above this ratio you’re under attack. This enables you to window expensive algorithms to that timeframe, it could be days or weeks, with overlapping attacks, but it helps with analyzing data.
