Signal Server isn't some open source library you drop into a project. It's an application run in production on a shoestring budget. Have a look at the PRs that are have been opened (that have or have not been merged): https:&#x2F

This is just plain false. This search engine is advertising anonymity. You don't get that when searching Google, which is encrypted with TLS...

Indeed, if TLS is compromised many security guarantees of the web break down.

It sounds like a mistake, the robots incorrectly tagged you. I wouldn't interpret any ill will because of it. Also sounds like they approved your account shortly after so it's hard to see anything that negative here...

A public company just fired their head of HR, so I think they disagree with you here.

I don’t think pointing out nazis at the capitol is politics. Healthcare policy is politics, the election is politics. Pointing out nazis at an armed insurrection? No.

Courts can only adjudicate based on the law. There's little to adjudicate in these matters because the law protects platforms for content posted. The real shortcoming in these matters is a total lack of legislation that reflects the wo

I've heard a few references to the Masteriece Cakeshop decision in a few social medial channels I'm on ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masterpiece_Cakeshop_v._Colora... ). I think the comparison is pretty unhel

Well, people tend to actually use it in real life. edit: Signal protocol also has message deniability, future and forward secrecy. OpenPGP lacks these properties.

There's more content on these platforms than anyone can view. Therefore, platforms must make decisions about what to show to users. In service of growth, platforms often _choose_ content that users are likely to watch and share. This t

If you're referring to the fact DOE controls our nuclear arsenal, then sure. Not a lot else at DOE directly contributes to national security that I'm aware of. They sure do fund cool basic science research though.

Uber and Lyft didn't exist before, and folks managed fine without owning cars. Also wait and see what they do post election. The outcome of Prop 22 will decide what their true response is, until then this is just grandstanding to force

The autopilot is still at the control of the pilots, and usually enabled only at higher altitude. Landing/takeoff are still manually flown by pilots most of the time. I don't have issues with a computers ability to maintain altitu

I'm very curious what "banning" predictive policing even means here. In the broadest sense, predictive policing is using data to inform where crime will happen in the future. Is this to say you can't use historical trend

It's a problem of limited resource allocation. The _point_ is that we have limited tests, so given limited supply why are we wasting the tests on those we think are sick. The limited supply could still be directed towards asymptomatic

I don't know. Seems if someone were on the fence for supporting Marijuana legalization, the fact that it also helps reduce opioid use seems to be a reason to support legalization. The picture you paint is of someone who is unlikely to

It's more composable with multiple includes. For instance, if you have a simple active record type: class User has_many :comments; has_many :likes; end User.includes(:comments, :likes).find(user_id) Generates 3 queries, but importa

Rails is also fine to maintain down the road. Certainly easier than any data layer most engineers would make by hand.

I feel this comment assumes that experimentalists weren't "exploring" this whole time. There are many, many, MANY papers that fly out of these particle physics experiments. Most of the papers are about how they do not find st

Signal is open source both client and server. To my knowledge the same isn't true for WhatsApp.

If it's a paper tiger then why are legal teams blocking teams from adopting it? There's the theoretical risk of patent infringement that this post addresses, but the more important point (imo) is that the current state of affairs

Why is that funny? Most interviewers are just doing what their company asked them, to give a whiteboarding problem to a potential candidate and figure out if they're worth hiring based on that. I agree the process sucks and it's a

I'm pretty sure the title is accurate. Facebook isn't giving an additional "try" by storing the password with caps lock. It instead reduces the search space by 26 characters. Take for an example a password someone might

Lastpass stores your password encrypted. If in your threat model you're unwilling to use Lastpass because of the leakability of the master database, you should avoid Lesspass since trying to guess your password on Webstie X given Lastp
