That’s why you should put a pass phrase on it. Firefox syncs my passwords but has to ask for my master password at launch. Same goes for Google Chrome’s passwords: they’re encrypted at rest and can’t be displayed online for that reason, you have to sync with Chrome.
For those who are more familiar with npm, there are two packages for this by Sindre Sorhus. You can run them without preinstalling them with npx, if you wish:
> This doesn't scale easily when you consider the volume that places like NPM have.
Found the blanket statement for npm.
How about instead of reviewing 1 library of 10k lines that does everything, you review 10 focused modules for a total of 1k lines?
Also modules like left-pad don’t change that often so you probably have to review only changes in the top modules.
We need to stop this mentality that dependency count should be low. Look at total LOC and you’ll probably find that it’s not as bad as people like to paint it.
A high dependency count does increase your vulnerability surface area. All it takes is one weak or reused password on an account without 2FA enabled for a malicious package to be uploaded. You're more vulnerable to this when you depend on more individual publishers to get it right.
We haven’t started doing any serious genetic engineering (or maybe, depending on timeline, the equivalent for minds uploaded into computers) yet. Once we do, we could do a lot of “growing up” very quickly.
It isn't physical "growing up" that we, as a species, need to do. This is the way the whole society act. If you look at politics and corporate world, it feels like a bunch of pre schooler throwing tantrum. As a society we are not acting responsibly. You could argue that the worse are countries that still argue to go to war with their neighbors on the pretends the later are different, but the rest allowing to destroy the planet while keeping the rest of the society under control, preventing us, as a species, to achieve goals that are dreamed by the most creative of us. And it is depressingly easy to keep the status quo.
IMHO, it doesn’t make sense to blame “society” for being pre schoolers, any more than it makes sense to blame individual humans for becoming mentally ill. Both are just failure modes of our mental hardware (our tribal-status instincts in the societal case.) The only solution to either that would “stick”—what I would interpret “growing up” to mean—is to remake ourselves without those failure modes.
Anything less might help individual humans who get some sort of maintenance treatment for their failure modes; but our society as a whole will still be a function of interactions between both people who have treated those failure modes in themselves, and those who have not yet (because e.g. they aren’t aware yet that they have a problem; or don’t see it as a problem; etc.)
Thank you for the link. I agree with what the author is saying, mostly. :)
Mind that when I mentioned society as a whole, this is inclusive to its individual parts: There is no society without individuals and as such any judgment on a society is a judgement on its parts. That being said, I know it is a naive view, as no one can condemn a society completely.
As for the bio engineering to try and weed out the "bad wiring", I am not even sure we are close to identify them clearly, as seems to indicate the science articles about the brain and other nervous system in recent years.
ML generates some rather bad artifacts. Just look for those.
Even in this[1] difficult comparison you can see the non-human repeating skin patterns on the right and the awkward teeth contour. Also hair-on-skin often looks wet and with unnatural bends.
When comparing wrinkly people then it gets a little harder.
That one is super hard when looking only at the face.
Look at the clothes and necklace. The clothes are different on left and right sides of her face - the moment you see it you can't unsee it and it's obviously wrong.
I'm not worried about it, and I don't plan to give up.
Becoming an amateur art historian has greatly enriched my day-to-day life and given me much inspiration in my own creative output.
As a multi-disciplinary artist I feel called to recognize and hold important people and their creations in my memory, in order to help them live forever like they wanted.
