Interesting, seems like something every digital camera should have the ability to do by default. Although, the privacy issues could be a larger concern in some instances. Such as a source to news paper ect... if not applied it could be used

It's just sad apple does not let owners to do this with their device by default. We had to wait for a bootrom exploit.

I am not a fan of RPKI since it's centralized. I guess better than nothing, but what I find annoying is that IP protocol has the ability for source routing. So instead blinding trusting routes in BGP, clients/nodes who knows the r

There are dependencies to build a program, and dependencies to run it. Sure a static binary can run without any run time dependencies if written to run on bare metal (without an OS). Although, you could go further down that rabbit hole an

Like that point is fair, but almost no C code has no dependencies. Like just a basic application that returns 0 and nothing else from main will need to link to crt0. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crt0 However, you can

I know it is like some people don't realize epidemiological-ly what is important is staying away from other people. Hiking in remote area where there are no other people is not a problem. Driving for 26 something hours, and likely not

While I an not a fan of google for a lot reasons this decision is pretty wacky. This ruling says google must provide a service, but they must also pay those who use it... How does this make any sense. It’s akin to the government forcing som

Sounds like a horrible idea. Why on earth would I want the act of scanning a QR code to start downloading & executing random code. Heck native code too since they say it's an app.

The IETF has shown it's self less prone to rubber stamping. W3C is a whole other case. Problem is unlike IETF which anyone can chime in on a standard. W3C is members only and most the members are companies. Most these companies use goo

I would concur, but there are not many non-licensed bands. So all sorts of traffic is more congested in those. If there were more unlicensed bands I think it would probably improve those use cases. I think both types are quite important.

The one thing I like about QUIC being more wide spread is that it is making network operators treat UDP traffic more fairly. However, I don't see it replacing TCP, and if anything it's just an other tool to use.

This is better than a hash table for membership testing. As for compared to table scan depends on your key size and number of keys. This algorithm means you could easily have more than 10k especially for larger keys, and still likely resi

What do you thinks gives various distilled spirits there various flavours. Otherewise, you would just use the cheapest sugar to ferment. Also oils and tannins can get distilled too with the alcohol. Its why distilling has what they call dif

I don't see this idea working, but normally alcohol also has sugars in it. Even distilled alcohol has sugars. Inhaling sugar sounds like a great way to cause other problem. If this were to have any success the alcohol would have to be

This has much better storage/memory bounds than a hash table. The end result is less cache misses.

Like that's good to hear. That's an order magnitude more, but still pandemic could easily overwhelm what is available.

I would say it does a lot better than just cancer treatments. However, cost and accessibility is probably the biggest problem. Health care is also just one those things that don't follow a normal supply and demand graph. Like in the ex

Things can be plated in copper or even silver. However plating in high use can be worn away via friction.

While plating could save money. Plating wears through in high use areas. I suppose you could plate hardware as thick as you can and give it a rated life span. Same with silver which also has microbial properties which is better of two I don

This has been thought about. Digest auth is a thing, but is stuck on MD5. However, with how flexible a web-form is there really is no way to enforce it so idea never really went that far.

If you choose a strong master key this should still be secure even if a site leaks a generated sub-key/password. All you need to do is change the sub-key for that site. Both this and password managers though still can be hosed if the m

Assuming your master key/password is strong this system is still secure if one the sites you use leak the generated password. However, if you somehow leak your master key then all your accounts are exposed. It's weakness mainly is

This is a bad idea. The virus is still pretty new so lots of unknowns like it may be dormant after infection in certain body parts. Also considering the 1 to 2% death rate seems highly risky. Plus a higher percentage needing intensive care

I think VSTs pass native resources to the plugin. However, there are VSTs without GUIs, but this says nothing about what other APIs a VST may use. I imagine there might be some VSTs that don't use a GUI that can run.
