They claim to unmask VPNs, unless they have a 0day, this is usually done using social engineering (ip grabber link redirects for example), which intetestingly maybe perfectly legal, but I'd argue unmasking someone's VPN constitute

people had similar complaints about python and all the space/tab/indentation. I like to think it was not aesthetically pleasing but also, it was way ahead of it's time. If Rust was released in '95 it may not have been re

The CDC recommends schools start at 8:30. I have the same sleeping habit as you, regardless of my work schedule (including graveyard shift over the years), I naturally wake up later than 7-8am and I am most productive late noon or after 1am

You misunderstand, I meant a court ruling that an official intentionally violated rights of citizens, that is the crime. Constitutionality of something can be established, intentionap disregard of the constitution or a court ruling regardin

The constitution is a contract between the people and govetnment where both parties operating under rule of law agree to abide by those terms. Nobody gives a shit because if government breaks the terms of this contract there is no direct co

A rule that can't be enforced is not a rule but a suggestion. If people follow it is because they agree with it. Anyone can follow a rule when it is convenient, punishment exists to make sure people follow the rule when it is inconveni

With the exception of the president, there is always an authority that can arrest/punish an authority (including the military). Incorrect interpretation of the law is not what I am talking about, intentional violation is. The clerks th

If you have a signed confession and video recording of civil servants intentionally violating the law, should they not be punished?

Voting gets the violators out of office (rarely works, but let's say it does) but it does not punish them for their explicit malicious violation of the law.

Let's say the hiring practice of a church is unlawful, it would not be constitutional law that was violated. Now the Church might sue and say their freedom to excercise their faith is being violated. If a judge rules in good faith agai

Yes, so being in contempt is the what is being punished. Like you said, being told to stop is the only consequence.

The executive branch. Following orders or implementing a law that violates citizens right should come with criminal consequence. I don't care who found it unconstitutional, there should be criminal punishment after a court rules that a

You're absoutley right, but as the answer in your link points out, those laws are still enforced by some other means in most cases. My point was, obeying the most important laws of the land should not be left to the good will of govern

You know what I don't get? There is no penalty for violating the highest law of the land (the constitution). How is it anymore than a suggestion or a guidline if government officials are not punished for violating it? And that is exact

I remember being very hungry most of the day. If I ate, it was usually because I had enough change to buy junk-food snacks from a vending machine. I didn't know until recently other people also had similar experiences.

The CDC and other health orgs actually recommend starting schools a bit later [1]. Going through puberty plus some people naturally waking up later (sleeping early just means waking up most of the night) has serious health implications when

You know, that might actually be a reasonable explanation.

I've seen how schools are in other countries both in person and on video. In the US down to the doors and walls they are almost identical. Perhaps the US does it a bit too well?

I think Japanese schools are something to learn from. They usually have openable windows to let fresh air in, the "commons" area is usually outdoor and students cleanup and care for the school itself -- which teaches students to b

American schools resemble actual prisons in many ways. From the architecture of buildings to the freezing temperature (prisoners fight less when cold) they are shockingly similar. And they have to wake up unnaturrally early. I think it all

Why is this a surprise? If you work in infosec at any multinational you would know activists (hacktivism) and hostile nations/leaders are a serious threat you track. Has no one heard of Dataminr? What do people think it's used for

I wonder if many of these were slang terms used regionally that would normally be excluded from most formal writing because people who knew how to read and write also spoke more "properly". Literacy rate has been low historically.

I did not know the extent but I was aware they were bombed like berlin and london. I meant when they planned the nuke attack Tokyo and Kyoto were on the list but they were removed for different reasons.
