Keep this stuff on the download, if the win execs find out about this it'll have a subscription tier next week

I think it's a bit different considering the goal was a teaching tool of well recognised conditions

>all or almost all were cases of very well recognized conditions [...] where a single case report would not generate any interest or ever be cited.

I think this talk of a boycott is ignoring the "new" appointment of a CEO in 2019 which has been posting impressive year on year profit % increase, I think this growth ie catching up to them rather than talk of boycott

Seems very dubious, new accounts in the comments urging people to download it ( u/Sonnigeszeug) all the 'sources' go back to the same file, claims it is on torrent trackers yet providing no evidence for? A very sensational article with no proof and if it was true downloading russian government data with no idea whats in it? the sweetest of honey right here

I am sure the other reports from the website are very real: https://archive.ph/8RGAb

Most people have absolutely no way to handle a 10TB file, anyway. Even 1TB csv files can be a challenge. Need to use DuckDB or chunk it somehow.

A lot of ways to hide nasty surprises in such a file, too.

Pack it into a nice executable "csv" and you've got baby's first malware

Dude... i'm a software engineere in germany.

I create new accounts because i spend too much time on hn...

I suggest to download stuff because i assume people on HN are well equiped to check it out.

Click yourself some cheap vm in the cloud, download it, check it out. Cost involved? $10

Do you expect journalists with less it knowledge to do this? I mean yeah they can and should but people on hn should do too

> i'm a software engineere in germany.

Fake German detected. A true one would write "I'M A Software Engineer In Germany".

they said he is a software engineer in germany. they didn't say they are from germany.

Any validity besides one news article? seems to be getting the hug of death atm.

Hugged? Or DOSed?

10 TB file from a random website that I have never heard of? Seems like if someone was to leak this a more reputable news agency would have been notified instead of... trendsnewsline

You don't have to download the whole 10TB...

Seems very odd an ai account?* is posting a seemingly unknown 'news' site to a very large unverified file that didn't seem to pass the desk of any major news org and all the 'sources' of this leak come from the same mediafire link, not even a torrent?

*account details looks odd, copy and pasting ai summary of article

Who if not people / experts reading on hn?

Click yourself any server anywhere, download it, analyse it, share your findings.

Right because we all have the time, memory, and sandboxed virtual machine to test this safely without getting hacked.

Obvious honeypot is obvious. If you want (technical) people to download your malware you're gonna have to do better than this.

This goes for me in direction of civil service tbh. and if someone should do something and support, this is the thing we should do.

If people on hn, knowing how things work, are skiddisch, what normal people will do? even less.

To me it goes beyond "civil service" and becomes more like "military service" - you're directly putting yourself in harms way for the collective good. It's not reasonable to expect many users on HN have the setup required to investigate this - sure we're all interested in technology. But we're not all cybersecurity experts.

This is the equivalent of your grandma thinking you're a tech genius because you can restart the router. The skills required for this kind of work are specialised.

Why asking people to do something you should have done first? If there's anything worthy in it, then point to those interesting documents where HN community would be more than happy to help.

I didn't. Someone else did.

I clarified the effort and that we all should do it because we are probably the best people to do so.

That's a fast way to get hacked or become a target. We can do better in this forum security-wise

We are on a forum were most users should know how to operate data that has the probability of malware in it...

You'd think so but it appears they just don't click on strange links instead.

Just now you commented (and removed) that it's improbable that a file this big would be a honeypot, I don't think most users here know how to operate data safely.

I deleted it because the discussion is void. The data is on torrent trackers and on shared file hosters. You can download single files in the torrent and if you can't handle a txt file without getting an anxiety attack that's on you.

I'm not interested in the content but you are, share your findings in place of asking ppl to do that. Why there are so many profiles (many of them green) hurrying people to stop thinking about risks and just open the files? Shouldn't they just open it and see?

Edit as I can't reply: your behavior is quite suspicious and so is some of the new green users commenting. That is exactly what someone embedded in the hacker culture would conclude after analyzing, not feel challenged by you to hurry and open the files.

Of course, I am interested in major data leaks, as most people on this forum should be, since it's an integral part of the culture of the word before news in the url. After examining approximately 20 files, my initial impression is that it appears to be scraped OSINT data. However, I won't make definitive claims based on such a limited sample size. Drawing one's own conclusions is also a quintessential aspect of hacker culture. Though I suppose that's not why you chose to have "webmaster" in your username and hypothesis…

Happened to codyslab, videos taken down now (but still on archive.org) of a uranium purification process and possibly nilered,no way to prove it but he had a 'making rocket fuels: part 1' that was never followed p on. Not totally sure though as people like BPS space on yt have some pretty in depth tutorials on solid rocket motors (does explicitly censor how to make the ignition component)

Uhm, there are plenty of videos about making solid rocket fuel. Model rocketry doesn't need any special permits until you get to launching large rockets.

I guess once you have the permits it doesnt matter. With the nilered vids, they were more of the more hypergolic variety

A thing I dont see alot of people talking about here is the increase in strength over time. For first time users who experience a more 'modern' weed strain that will mess you up if you dont have a tolerance, I dont think they would try it again soon.

Off topic buying haven't seen a bit of code in Wikipedia to run to see a visualisation before

>rewilding What does this mean in your context

Sorry I thought the term was self explanatory. Like, the domesticated plant became reestablished in the wild.

Is there a reason for the categorisation of the EMEA[0] region? seems too broad to make actionable conclusions, I'd assume the LTV of a western European would be different then someone in South Sudan.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe,_the_Middle_East_and_...

I assume time zone. It's very useful in dividing follow the sun team coverage

just seems like a waste to lose both developing markets and an already developed high income market to averaging a huge region of different income levels
