Schneier is good at times, but he doesn't always do as much due diligence as he should, and he never bothers to interact with his comment threads, answer questions, or publish retractions. As a result, I've had more than one exper

The title and opening paragraph is a bit deceptive. It's been my rule for a long time to never put any weird Easter eggs, inside jokes or profanities in software (even variable names, comments, etc.) because you never know whether it&#

Kind of apples and oranges, with the Index being twice as expensive, requiring a gaming PC, and being wired.

I do like the sentiment, and there's a lot to agree with in the post, but I think he strawmanned Dustin a bit: I don't think Curtis was saying that possessions should be "things we live in service to." I think most peopl

I came to the exact same conclusion as you. I can see this working nicely in relaxed companies that are comfortable waiting for the signed keys to expire (but those companies probably also won't like the inconvenience of expiring keys)

Are the carbon emissions that big of a deal? Every house in North America has at least one freezer. What scale are you envisioning when you say "mass"? I've sometimes fancied that the discovery of immortality might be good fo

Why? Not that I don't believe you, but I can't get a back-of-the-envelope estimate to go that high (certainly from lack of knowledge on my part). But I'm picturing the kind of study you see in posters on mass transit: "A

There's still progress being made on this front in Japan. I remember seeing a few interesting haptic chair or cockpit games (and other interesting control schemes). Starwing Paradox and Gundam: Senjo no Kizuna come to mind.

It's only a half-step from what we already have, you have to think about it technically to realize how difficult it is. We already have live broadcasts, CCTVs, aerial imagery and photo satellites. Astral projection is almost the same t

I'd like to see simulation-based games as a supplement to traditional learning or apprenticeship. There are a lot of XYZ Mechanic Simulator games which I think have potential to be effective learning tools. They won't teach you mu

I'm concerned that this is being downvoted, and that people in this thread are giving legal advice without any caveat or mention of country, state, etc.

I'm sure it is, but it's more difficult than just collecting mortality numbers, and therefore not easy to control for.

I suspect specialists are already booked to capacity, and they don't play catch-up after a conference, it's just planned into the schedule.

I suspect that's harder to collect. Deaths are probably public/census data, but details about individual cases are subject to confidentiality.
