Your mom won't even hear about the education or enterprise editions. At most she'll hear about home, phone, and pro... and maybe not even the latter.

1) "AES-256 with a good enough password is unbreakable" is a provably incorrect statement. AES-256 used in ECB mode for example is incredibly breakable. And the modes available to you in FDE are compromises compared to what you wo

There really aren't a lot of choices though. This isn't like Windows 7. If you're running Windows 10 at home you have two options: Home or Pro. That's it.

The state of student loans in the US don't really seem like a warning sign for student loans in the UK, which work so differently I'd almost argue they should be called something other than a 'loan'. What's more it

Who says this will use less energy? The remarkable property of it is the (seeming) violation of conservation of momentum, not its efficiency.

Your point is valid, but it's still beneficial to the grid even now to have a bunch of batteries on it: you won't get power flowing into the grid from them, but it does mean output power can be varied a lot more with batteries soa

This is a three-pronged stroke of genius: 1) Immediate benefits to just about anyone. If you have your own solar panels, you need this (or something like it). Even if you don't, you can benefit by drawing more power during cheaper off-

Surely if you had a decent crash bug in iOS's SSL handling, you'd look to escalate that to some kind of exploit e.g. arbitrary code execution? This doesn't smell right.

I made a mistake in my comment. It should say that any particular floating number is no more likely to be picked than any other with the same exponent. (I think that's right? So basically any representable number could be chosen, but o

When you can do 60 billion attempts per second, 1 million is a pretty small number. Edit: That said, they do still provide value, by making password collisions less obvious.

I'd say somewhere between 1 in 3 and 1 in 6 people that graduated with me (from a decent university!) could not actually program at the end of their three or four years. That said, the same goes for at least two of the professors...

You can adjust Git's rename (and copy) sensitivity when using tools like diff, blame, and log. Git doesn't actually treat moves specially at all (even when you do git mv), each revision is (effectively) a simple snapshot of what a
