No. First of all, primes are only used to arrive at a session key, and once you have a session key you're in the land of symmetric algorithms, which provide security by permutations rather than vectoring into prime spaces. The content

Trying to live underground on a dead planet might just prove that we need Earth. Lots of people say space tourism is silly and then go gas up their car while complaining that Teslas are how the coastal elites will take their retirement.

I'm not saying it's right. I'm only saying that the supreme court has ruled on it. Frankly I think such a basis is completely absurd. We'd need to have at least four more black presidents to really show it's effecti

Didn't the Supreme Court of the United States rule that it had been effective, with their primary evidence being the election of Barak Obama? That's not a study but in terms of legal doctrine it seems to be a settled issue.

There are cameras inside the buses in San Francisco too. I certainly agree with your assessment, cameras are obscenely obvious in Singapore, which leads to the feeling of being watched. The difference, I suspect, is that more money is spent

Unless regulation is brought, they're going to do it anyway. The companies are absolutely going to be doing facial recognition and use that data, they just will be doing it without exposing the use of it to us.

He does talk about how fast his eyes would burn if exposed to the laser. If it helps people get off the couch is it really that bad? I want my kid to grow up too, but protecting him from all harmful information is just going to turn him int

When it comes to working with people, it’s usually clear who learned programming by rote memorization and who actually noodled their way through a formal education. I’ll do almost anything to avoid working with the former. They just can’t c

Yeah this is not really going to be a problem. Cars spend a lot of time waiting, so rows of 120V outlets will do plenty. Level 2 chargers can keep busy cars topped up. They could have superchargers for fast turnaround, but as a renter I f

It’s official because it’s been so thoroughly researched from every different possible angle. It was clear even in 1989, and strongly suggested as early as 1900.

Only if there was a large pact of countries doing so. But even that would be dubious, since OPEC and other groups would just increase production. Also there are many oil resources that can be tapped with a slight increase in the prices, so

With the rise of autonomous trucking will also come a return to highway robbery. Seems to me the job of trucking will turn to the job of security. There will evolve long term fluctuations in demand as robbery and security vie for dominance.
