Giving government money doesn’t really change the way government operates. The government has the budget for the year and that’s the spending for the year. If government needs something done, an item gets budgeted, money is borrowed, and paid out to get stuff done. Giving money to the government only offsets the debt; nothing else changes from that besides the number in the spreadsheet.
Not just more than one employer, but some healthy number of available options.
You thought A is great but you think you can find better so you go to B. They turned out worse, you then tried C and those weren't great either. But now A won't hire you back because they already filled the position, and there are no other available companies doing the thing you want to do. Now you're stuck with inferior employment options compared to the choice of not changing jobs in the first place, unless you're willing to do something else entirely or start your own business.
Depends on the field obviously, but there are reasons why people might want to stick with a not-so-bad job instead of looking for a perfect one.
Yes, breakpoints will still work. Debuggers generally use POKETEXT to write breakpoints, which ignores any write protection on pages. mseal does not affect this use case.
It's more about the slippery slope of security vs convenience.
I do git rebase -i often. Do I want to touch my yubikey exactly 37 times for the 37 commits amended, or do I want to touch it once and just trust the software for the next N seconds to sign only these commits and not anything else?
Now, if I'm the verifier, do I trust the signer to do it properly? Or the half their commits are actually made by their cat and automatically signed?
Signing a tag is a relatively rare and very deliberate action. A more secure approach is less likely to impact convenience, reducing the chance of compromising security because it was inconvenient.
I tend to agree with the argument Linus put forward a long time ago, saying that there is little reason to sign commits instead of tags in git.
* Commit references the tree. If you sign the entire commit object – which is what you want, not leaving a way to change something about the commit without invalidating the signature – you sign the file tree as you saw it and implicitly all its history. Might as well sign the tag then.
* Signatures separable from the commit have a benefit of allowing someone other than the author and committer at the time to certify authenticity of the file tree. For example, if the key needs to be rotated later, you can slap a new signature over the previous one.
* Signing every single commit is tedious, so you're bound to get it automated at some point. Now your signatures are worth less because your keys are always around to indiscriminately, automatically sign whatever.
It’s a bit tautological. In order for you to prevail you must be stronger than your opponent in one or more critical areas. If you think you can win then you believe to know the weakness of your opponent.
Depending on your morals the causation here could easily be turned: once you see what you believe to be a weak opponent, you go for the win.
The idea is to disincentivize hoarding cash and promote active usage of money in the economy, because governments believe that having useful markets is better than not having them. Regardless of the current living standards and your wages. Rising prices and wages are not the goal per se.
So all your dollars are put on fire and lose 2% of their value annually. You can watch your cash burn to spite the Fed, or you can give it to someone else and make it their problem what to do with dollars while you enjoy whatever you bought.
It’s not necessarily a copyright violation if the license permits copying. Under a permissive license, you are expressly permitted to copy the code and distribute copies provided you comply with whatever conditions the license mandates, without an explicit blessing of the copyright holders. Most popular licenses do not include a prohibition on training AI models. Maybe people should start including a clause.
How about monthly statements? Purchase history? Stats, analytics, budgeting? In a mobile app? Without you personally or the merchants you buy stuff from having to do anything for that?
