During periods where I needed to regularly edit on other machines, I found it easy enough to adjust without giving up customization everywhere. Tbh, the only thing that gets in my way are the exact tab-related settings you also have.

As a consumer, how do I not follow along? I can't just stop using healthcare for my family. I feel like I must accept this scam because it's the lesser evil. This exists only because of the lobbyist system of government, where con

They may not be faster, depending on what size integers you are dealing with. From your [1]: "As a rule of thumb, Karatsuba is usually faster when the multiplicands are longer than 320–640 bits." Toom-3 doesn't get faster tha

May apologies if I sounded knee-jerky. The intention was to show that a picture was a better answer to @dbatten's very legitimate comment. The idea is to demonstrate that a "straight" line on a surface needs to be viewed alon

Here's how I explained countersteering to myself: To turn left, I need to lean left. The easiest way to lean left is to pull the bottom of the bike, where the wheels touch the ground, to the right.

They seem either confused about what "MCU" means, or intent on changing the commonly accepted meaning.

My point is that you can't blame companies for protecting their business. Their boards wouldn't be doing their jobs if they didn't. The system where money translates into such disproportionate control over the law is broken.

Don't hate the player? Lobbyism doesn't serve the public, but it is how American law-making is done. Of course companies will lobby to keep their business.

Personally I'd be ok (it turns out that everyone poops!), but I realize I'm in the minority and get your point. My point is that it depends on each culture's understanding of "freedom" and "privacy".

Right, if a service provider is willing to register new public keys/certs (or any kind of credential) on your account as a result of identity fraud, that is indeed a different problem. But not nearly as big as phishing and password reu

Since it's at the TLS level, the frontend/load balancer would have to deal with user authentication, which can be challenging.

Yes. Symbolic execution is an example of abstract interpretation. Not sure why the snark, that's fairly accepted terminology.

FTA: Every single passenger's info is readable by a list of 20+ domains that are not Emirates. That's quite different from having to put physical eyeballs on a luggage tag.
