It's not that other people are famous. They have a track record in this exact field, where he produced results and made money for investors. His results help to shape how software development gets performed.

A signed executable isn't for trusting the app. It's for knowing the provenance of the app. Sure, there are some application checks that happen before listing a store app, but those checks are minimal.


Signing proves someone pays Apple $100/yr. The "provenance" you're getting is literally just the billing info.


You can just click to run the app. Gatekeeper doesn't stop you from running apps.

If you really want to ban Gatekeeper you can. sudo spctl --master-disable

As the saying goes about being careful, measure twice and cut once.


A bunch of things break when you do that, though I do run my osx machine that way. The point is that it shouldn't be the default, it's the end of personal computing.


If you're considering whether to use a FIPS 140-3 module for your cryptography, consider that FIPS 140-3 is really only for specific compliance verticals. If you don't know whether you need it, you probably don't need it.

So, along those lines, if you wonder whether a package's cryptography should be FIPS 140-3 compliant, then the real question is whether you are a vertical that needs to be compliant. Again, if you aren't sure, the answer is likely NO.


>Again, if you aren't sure, the answer is likely NO.

Likely no, I agree. But I think there are probably a lot of companies selling enterprise software that later attempt to solicit a FedRAMP authorization that would benefit from planning ahead and building a compliant version from the jump. Worth considering and having a conversation internally.


The phone providers oversell bandwidth. They also limit the use of already purchased bandwidth when it gets legitimately used.

Similar to many industries, their business model is selling monthly usage, while simultaneously restricting the actual usage. They are not in the business of being an ISP for people running software on their phones.


That's not what I received from ChatGPT. This is:

The fuel filler door is on the left side (driver’s side) of the vehicle. Therefore, the little arrow on the dash fuel gauge should point to the left to indicate that.

(Most Buick Rivieras of that era had the fuel filler on the driver’s side, though official Buick manuals or build sheets from 1978 confirm this location.)

Yea, so here's the tl;dr history in the article:

1. The author, who actually cribbed from wikipedia, gets the willies when he sees shallow water infested with tens of thousands of perfectly happy alligators. All he thinks is that amazing commerce will happen when he kills all the kind gators, flushes the state, and runs away before the next time it rains.

2. Everyone throughout history has wanted to Drain The Swamp. Every one of those amazing historical people has seemed perfectly reasonable and without a doubt was an incredibly towering bastion of science who wanted to drain the Everglades. Too bad they were all incompetent.

3. Please leave Florida Man and Gator Lake alone. They separate the Gulf of America on the West from the Sea of Florida on the East.

Best Site Ever.

I just purchased an Infinity for home, a Quantum Wrench for work, and a Self-Cleaning Nuclear Blast for cooking when I travel.

I can't wait until those arrive! They look even better than the 217 Samsung TVs I purchased to give as bonuses to the maids at a couple of my properties.

Why travel the world, when I can travel all of reality-writ-large?!?
