I don't have strong opinions on what motivation that murderer may have had. I just don't have any experience shooting up gay nightclubs that I could draw on to help me offer insight into that one. I do strongly support the claim t

Taking children by force, confining them in education centers, and violently coercing them to assimilate is counterproductive. A third of them went through the residential school system. The land was fully conquered well before the state se

Hopefully this doesn't wind up as another "BadBIOS", where nobody produces any real technical evidence that it's true.

Similar repressive policy was used against the native population of Canada. It failed to achieve its intended goals, destroyed lives, and left behind a painful legacy. It's a shame the CCP has decided to take this dark path.

I'm assuming you're going to a major city and aren't visiting a sensitive area like Tibet or Xinjiang. I highly recommend using a foreign mobile carrier so that you won't need to bother with a VPN on your mobile. It&#x27

DigiCash lacked the novel, decentralized proof of work consensus introduced by Bitcoin and I also suspect the general public was much better able to participate with 2008 broadband than what we had 1998

It was more than 10 years ago that all changed. Not only that, US immigration officers even had personal discretion to let us in without proof of citizenship at all, and I'm pretty sure it was the same going North. Sucks how things are

We need silent updates to be disabled by default until the user opts in, and we need 7 figure bug bounties on any method of bypassing that. We also need a certificate transparency type system for updates so users know whether how unique the

In China you don’t get to accept incoming connections without a license anyway, so there’s no legitimate purpose for the vast majority of users, including businesses, to have a routable address. Users only need to be able to initiate connec

Right, I'm not suggesting that it's even remotely possible for millions of systems to be updated at the same instant, just that outside of some special circumstances like beta channels (yes Google Play supports this) the huge numb

Luckily with modern key agreement protocols the user never knew the decryption keys at all. Encryption of data at rest is another matter. We need better duress mechanisms there, and in order for those to be effective we need a big cleanup o

In a sense they are, but they send the same updates to everyone whereas a backdoor needs to allow malicious actions to be taken against specific targets only. If vendors are forced to abuse updates in this way then users are going to demand

Fair enough. What makes a good interior shot is more subjective. The idea with the food pics is that it's very easy to tell which photo of the same thing is better. I think the big sites must know this and they could do it, but users w

These are the best answers I've heard so far. What are your favorite projects or products that depend on these? Any more examples you feel worthy of mention?

None of those qualify as significant. I'm asking for examples like: Linux, Java, OpenSSL, PHP, Apache, MySQL.. widely used codecs or implementations of them, compilers or scripting languages, network stacks.. frameworks.. like Ruby on

I'm vouching this comment. Obviously you created this throwaway for this. I know what singles day is about. I'm unconvinced by your arguments, but will concede that it's not a good idea to for the US to drive good talent away

I'm not saying Tencent, Baidu, and Weibo are unsuccessful. I'm saying that they are successful because Facebook(+WhatsApp), Google, and Twitter are blocked by all 3 of China's ISPs. If that were not the case I strongly believ

No, of course I don't believe IT departments do that. It's management's responsibility to make sure someone is responsible for the data on every random PC on the network. Management is responsible for putting systems in place

It's one thing to get owned by 0 day and lose the stuff you were working on last month. If you lose stuff from 10 years ago you absolutely had it coming. The way you protect old data is by routinely auditing what you have. You make sur
