The only people with reasonably secure phones are those who buy the expensive, well supported ones. Whatever the EU or other government says will not change this. I don't think any good will come from government regulation like this.

I'm looking around at everyone enjoying their phones all around me, and thinking that it's working quite well.

There is a free market currently with significantly different options. Currently Apple and Google offer longer support, and then you have a bunch of other options that offer less, but also generally cost less. Imposing this requirement will

Why? Why not just let people choose devices based on the reputation of the vendors for updates?

I go for constraints every time. Data Integrity is king as long as you can reasonably afford it. Your data migration aborted on an unexpected error? Well in my view that's a problem and you need to figure out why that is happening and

It's an interesting problem - designing a basic forum that can survive DDoS attacks without a centralized protector such as cloudflare.

We know exactly how much metadata can be collected. You can just look at how the official client works. You can reverse engineer what the server has to do. This not a matter of uncertainty. Signal doesn't mention the collection of the

No, it simply does not matter what modified version of their server they run. We know what the clients do, and we know what the servers can log. This is a fact as sure as day follows night, and that an apple will fall to the ground when dro

Then we're screwed. All mainstream applications running on modern general purpose computers are vulnerable to this. You don't like that? Stop busting their balls and produce an alternative operating system and application update f

The signal code is public and has been widely reviewed. We know full well what the server knows regardless of what they say.

Auto-renew is fine with all my other domains, it's an issue with that particular ccTLD, I don't see a way around it.

Treasury management is not straight forward though. A lot of projects raised in ETH, and decided to keep the ETH rather than locking in the dollar value they need to pay expenses in. ETH mooned and they are in a better financial position. I

Yeah, I try to also do that, as the domains are so important to me that I want to front-load as many things that could fail as possible. This one domain I have only allows me to renew it when it's less than 60 days to expiry and it&#x2

Cool, but when I loaded something that would help to visualize (a trace of a single block of ethereum) it just died. The JSON is 374KB.

Wouldn't trying to remain anonymous as a journalist be rather ineffective?

I like to keep important domains paid up many years in advance. Some TLDs don't allow this. I wonder if .link is one of those.

Are threads part of the C language or standard library?

Yeah, so give em to me in the event endpoint cause for sure you have them. I will iterate it and do what I need to do. The key is these things need to have IDs and be idempotent always. Do that, and getting out of a lot of big screw ups nee

I'm annoyed by these. Just give me the payload, authenticated of course. I can always just ignore your payload/signature and treat it as a notification to poll you anyway.
291.
by Canada 4y ago
I feel very strongly that first you should support event polling, and then add webhooks. So your basic method of getting events is to poll for them, and acknowledge each one. This must be idempotent in both directions. Then you can add webh

You actually could setup your own matrix server and have them connect to that. Should be fine, as long as this person is not in some part of China where freedoms are extra restricted. You could probably also get them to join tailscale. It&#

I suggest you post some screenshots, I'm interested in this but I'm not sure I feel like trying it before I see what it looks like.

The government isn't killing anyone, it's a doctor who works for the patient. One of my family members chose this, rather than suffer another year or two and then die anyway. According to the article 98% of the cases are like this

Agreed. As expected, Github has deleted it. Glad I cloned it all before I wrote any replies in this thread. Edit: Authoritative AWS nameservers have now stopped resolving tornado.cash.

In terms of mining transactions, the Ethereum proof of stake system will financially punish anyone who fails to attest to honest transactions, and there's no escaping that just because "sanctions". See this post for details:

That is insane. Why not also sue the landlords of Visa and Mindgeek offices, and the makers of cars their employees drive to work? Obviously if they sold cars and rented office space to these companies, they must have intended to help!

It's not that they used crypto per se. They also could have used bitcoin, eth, or usdt.

I understand why they do this, but I hope this is not strictly enforced against accounts with good history/reputation who request access.
