Very cool. I missed the original word2vec software discussion back in August: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6216044 And the paper itelf is a very worthwhile read: http://arxiv.org/abs/1301.3781

Or, similarly: - Snowden et al asked him to create a new keypair with very strict cleanroom practices[0] to be sure as to the sanctity of the private key. It's trivial to bump up the key length when doing so. [0]: See the August 18 NY

Is there any evidence that your example could impact somebody today? Sure, it's just a matter of the right (wrong) people connecting the dots... but is anyone currently doing that?

Ah, very good point. And the provider can send uniquely compromised versions to individuals to reduce their chance of detection, as well.

You must always trust something . In the case of a SpiderOak-like service, you must trust one of their client implementations to use it. Whether it is their compiled binary (which isn't even open source[0] "yet") or a java

I'm guessing the submission dates are hidden because they're incorrect. Here's another one[0] that says it was posted in 2011, but there's an ed mark saying that "at this time" meant "pre-2000." Edi

I still cannot believe that TSA personnel don't wear radiation dosimeter badges. It's absolutely absurd. In any other setting, OSHA/CDC would be going crazy. From 2010: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/travel&

Wow, I had no idea you could do that. Amusingly, you need to click the '+' tab button to remove the tabs. But it is wonderful to get rid of them. I, too, have had very important ticketing and banking emails filtered into the &qu

Not necessarily. When you ask glass for a photo, it finds the best focus lock over some time period that includes a short time before and after the command was executed. It has some sort of running buffer. This could work exactly the sam

But: such a tap would reveal no information about gmail-to-gmail communication, no? Most gmail usage is via their SSL web app or an email client, and their directions for most (all?) clients specify to use SSL. And in my experience, most

Yes, you've given up control. But you've traded it for trust . While Google's cars may have a flawless record, trust is an emotional thing. It's a long slow road for self-driving cars to earn our trust, even if they should already deser
