Are you saying the auditors are the bureaucracy or the FIPS standards approvers are the bureaucracy? All the auditors are saying is that you have to use a FIPS approved algorithm. The FIPS people have real cryptography experts who research

Gotta call BS on OP here. Anything time sensitive like self-driving cars absolutely has to be built on a real-time operating system. If you’re in the U.S. there are Dept of Transportation requirements to even be allowed to test drive the th

I empathize with the author, but definitely they are missing the Big Picture. Just because everyone’s using SolarWinds, does that make it safe to use? No. Now replace “SolarWinds” in that previous sentence with “bcrypt”. Author’s sole argu

Challenge trials don’t work when 40% of infected are asymptomatic. And challenge trials especially don’t work when 15% of cases require hospitalization and ICU beds are already maxed out.

I’m hesitant to blame anyone before we understand the full scope. “Breached into Microsoft” could mean they hacked into a guest public WiFi access point.

That’s the problem. Black lives mattering is a political issue only to those of privilege. I can’t believe we’re actually having political debate if certain people’s lives should matter or not.

I’m not a fan of cancel culture, but I’ve seen enough to know that I want to move my Bitcoin trading elsewhere. Their prebuttal seemed odd, and now this article confirms the worst of my suspicions. I’m not saying they’re racist, but they’re

I presume a lot of the perf gains of hypervisors are using Intel vt-x to hardware accelerate. The other issue with ARM is that there are several dozen chip varieties whereas x86 only has Intel and AMD. This could hopefully accelerate mini-C

It’s frowned upon in the public relations community because now the NYT can make changes to their story based on CB’s prebuttal. Which will be even more damaging.

TBH, this blog post from CB sounded like something you’d hear from the Trump campaign. Everything’s fine, we’re making lotsa money, it’s all fake news...

TLDR: We’re not racist, we’re just not anti-racist.

Saying something to the effect of “we’re not racist, we have ONE black person that works here” isn’t a good idea. Especially if you’re the premier cryptocurrency exchange and still rely heavily on outside funding.

Pfizer and Moderna each are lined up to produce 100 million doses each by end of the year. Pfizer’s CEO thinks we can get approval by October. https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/washington-post-live/wp... Astra

Many of those like OC43 and NL63 are extremely deadly to the elderly and have been known to have around 5-8% mortality in nursing homes. For everyone else, we should have a vaccine in the next 2-3 months.

Trump seems intent on this because of the Tulsa Rally fiasco. But at what point does it backfire on him? Tens of millions of pissed off 18yr olds could easily sway the election. Meanwhile, Microsoft has quietly avoided the anti-trust spotli

Thus the need for cheaper, quicker tests, even if the accuracy is t that great. TWIV Podcast episode #640 covers this. $1 per day test that quickly gives a result, but perhaps is only 50% accurate.

I think you missed the whole reason to “flatten the curve”. The hospitalization rate is the problem, not mortality rate. 20-30% of people who get the virus end up in the hospital since there are no known treatments available. For now, if we

Management overvalues complex systems and undervalues more elegant approaches. Architects are often more than willing to oblige mostly to live out their fantasies. Thus, we have every company it seems these days running around trying to imp

I don’t know about you guys, but .NET Core (c#) and Visual Studio along with Blazor on the front end and deploying on Linux is pretty darn cool and highly productive. I haven’t had much success getting as productive on Python, Golang, or No

At the end of the day there’s a pay band in HR and while COL may be 3x in SF than Oklahoma, but either it’s 600k in San Fran or 250k in Oklahoma, which is nearing physician’s pay in many smaller states. Pay will go up in smaller states and

Not exactly true. Moderna, and several others who are leading the vaccine race right now are out front because they had viable SARS and MERS vaccines but no where to test it other than in animal models. Coronaviruses are easy to vaccinate a

Most situations—another bank buys them. Sometimes with a deal sweetener from the FDIC (U.S. taxpayer). Extreme cases such as in 2007-2010 the Fed can offer financing deals for another bank to buy those distressed banks.
