Giving your DNS requests a secure tunnel to Cloudflare is like giving you a safe ride in an armored vehicle to a dark alley at midnight.

Disappointed that Firefox is giving Cloudflare user DNS resolution data by default via DoH. I trust my ISP but if I didn't, I'd use a trusted VPN to protect *all* my traffic. DoH is just a DNS-only VPN. What's worse, if you do use a VPN for #privacy FF will still leak your DNS data to Cloudflare by default. https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2019/09/06/whats-next-in-making-dns-over-https-the-default/

Is the EU trolling the UK?

The EU have nominated their new Trade Commissioner, it's Phil Hogan, from *Ireland*. Mr. Hogan will be responsible for negotiating any future trade deals between the EU and the UK (assuming Brexit happens).

Regarding future negotiations he re-iterated to-day the EU stance that nothing can proceed until the UK accepts the obligations in the Withdrawal Agreement.

"The researchers have named their attack NetCAT, short for Network Cache ATtack"

Seriously, netcat? I guess what they say about the two hardest problems in computer science is true... #infosec https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/09/weakness-in-intel-chips-lets-researchers-steal-encrypted-ssh-keystrokes/

@Wolf480pl I see your point but the whole artifice is fundamentally deceptive. Being altruistic and deceptive at the same time seems unsustainable over the long term. It seems more likely to work for people with non-benevolent motives, for whom deception is their native mode. A society whose ruling ideas are the best deceptions seems likely to end up being governed by narcissists. Wait ... ;)

I program for over 20 years. I just closed some tabs from yesterday:

"how to create directory in python"
"concat lists python"
"load 2 models tensorflow"
"how set pythonpath"

and some others.

And yes. I have a masters degree in informatics.

You don't need to learn things that you rarely need & are just 1 duckduckgo away by heart. Knowing that they exist and what to search for is sufficient.

Important are the thing you cannot search. Concentrate on those.

#ProTip if ever you find yourself tempted to ask identity politics posers on social media to have an honest discussion about what their actual needs are, do yourself a favour. Walk away from the screen, find a hornet's net, and stick your hand in it. It's less painful, and avoids giving narcissistic bullies an opportunity to enjoy being offended by everything you say and dog-piling you about it.
