Services can be available, and not reliant on internet connected services. Imagine if all the hacks we've seen in the last year happened all at once. We'd be screwed.

I have to wonder: Are there CTOs or IT heads going into board meetings or other meetings, and telling people that these systems are secure? Because if so, they need to be tried for fraud. If it's on the internet, it is not secure.

In the past year I've deployed Leap on 5 different workstations and servers. Three of them with more complicated active directory logins, and pam_mount setups. I've also compiled and installed a variety of academic software that w

Courts have ruled chalking tires by meter maids to be trespassing. I'm not sure the final verdict on that, though.

My understanding is that the interesting bit is not about the misalignment, but rather the fact that the furin site is an insertion, not a mutation. Additionally, a non-canonical codon that encodes a restriction site. The idea as I understa

I'm a structural biologist and I can attest that we absolutely need more computer scientists in this field. The problems we are trying to solve are complex and there's so much room for improvement. By the time someone is an expert

It's funny to see this analysis, because in my mind Rossman is simply being a New Yorker and doing things exactly as I'd expect a New Yorker to do them. The mentality that city forces on people to survive produces a narrow persona

I'm curious if booby-trap laws would have anything to say about this. If I can distill the arguments down to my (completely abstract) understanding: 1) Cellebrite has to interface with software to do extract data. 2) Signal is the sof

Are you able to elaborate on why there's no AMD option? I've preordered a DIY one, with the hope that down the line I can put an AMD main board in. (Still undecided on whether I'll want it if that never becomes an option)

You could have an air-gapped system and still have remote access. Just not external access. I don't think it's unreasonable to have a couple of people in a control booth monitoring a computer that regulates the pipeline 24/

In my opinion this is the single strongest piece of evidence against the lab-leak hypothesis (and it also refutes the whole "furin-site uses non-canonical amino acids which shows evidence of human involvement" hypothesis as well).

It tilts the needle, yes, but there are numerous other pieces of evidence that tilt it in the other direction. Hence the 90%/10% split in my mind. But I won't fault anyone else for having a different split. I think that's rea
