I don’t think this would be a ban from a technology standpoint. It’s from a legal/financial standpoint - so yes, you would still be physically able to download and run the BTC software, but nobody would be allowed to officially deal in

There’s no such thing as HIPPA. It’s HIPAA. And it’s nowhere near as broad in terms of privacy as most people believe - it’s extremely targeted in that regard.

I don’t think there’s any central storage for ICVPs today. As far as I know the records are just held by whoever normally holds your health records - the WHO trusts centres to only certify responsibly.

That’s not how the court decides if something is entrapment or not. To determine if something is entrapment there are two tests, and this fails both. Objective test (Did LEOs use incentives that would cause a normally law-abiding person als

“ It would only be entrapment if they were soliciting the illegal activity.” I’d like to note that this isn’t how entrapment works in the US (or many other places). If I’m an investigator, it is not entrapment for me to go to government emp

Yes, but also no. Right in that AN0M wasn’t secure. Wrong in that it wasn’t insecure because it didn’t disable Google services, or use secure updates or whatever - it was insecure because it just deliberately sent everything to the Feds.

I strongly object to these statements. Dialation may not be necessary every single time for a healthy adult, but it’s good to do occasionally as there are serious diseases that can only realistically be checked by getting a good look at the

There are two parts to this. One, yeah the optometrist wants your money, sure. You probably don’t need your script checked annually unless you’re old or there’s something serious already known to be wrong with your eyes. But... Not perceivi

I’m very much inclined to agree with your wondering. I feel that there is a certain personality type that despises the open office, and that most others are fine with them. Anecdotally, a group at the company I work (pre-Covid) had the oppo

Yes, but then I’m burning a second of compute time every time I want to log something. Also, by removing unlikely candidates (IPs owned by irrelevant entities or that are not US based) you could get the search range much much smaller, and w

The point is that while yes, many 3rd party password managers have issues, the overwhelming majority of attacks are not against password managers but against reused passwords - so honestly either the 1st or 3rd party choice is a win over us

Two reasons: they’re not always actually intra company. Apple and Apple Ireland are different companies - and while intuitively it feels like you can just lump them together, it’s often much more complicated than that. Second, because it is

There are lots of legitimate high-value cross border IP transfers, and since the US creates a lot of valuable IP it makes perfect sense that they’d oppose this.

We’ve been trying to find the zoonotic origin of Ebola for decades without any success. We don’t have anywhere near a complete catalog of animal diseases, and of those only a fraction have been sequenced.

I can’t help but feel you’re taking all the “for” factors and none of the “against”, then bending the “for” factors even further. Calling the market “right next to the lab” is a bit of a stretch - it’s a three and a half hour walk. The scie

That actually seems about right to me, at least for the type of mfg I'm used to. Compare low-run CNC quotes from Hubs (China) and Xometry (USA) - Xometry is usually ~2-3x the price. I've seen similar for IM prices although I have

I’d add account details (including profile pic), platforms being used, IP addresses, and linked accounts (including phone #) to that list. E2E protects your messages from interception, but literally everything else is fair game.

To be fair, dentists do engage in what really looks like price fixing (at least where I am, and to an outside eye). Every dentist here charges the exact same amount, regardless of whether they’re in the middle of a high-income metropolitan

Except that it wasn’t rhetorically sound. When it was initially argued that it was a lab produced virus, there zero evidence and was purely used for political posturing. As such, the argument was rejected by many. I don’t run out and do sig
