Interesting, but no more. The commonly used curve P-256 has the prime order 115792089210356248762697446949407573529996955224135760342422259061068512044369. From the paper "The largest group of elliptic group of prime order that we test

The typography of the web page looks all wonky on FF/Windows, with the text being blurry and wavy... Puts me off going further.

The airport in London and Paris aren't very convenient if you actually have to go to the city, and you need to add transportation costs to and from the city on both sides. Eurostar takes you to locations where people actually want to b

I love how the Economist map misses a 50M people municipality (Chongqing). Shows how little the world knows about China...

Solar is not only photovoltaic. Thermal solar (heat stored in molten salt) provides electricity at night. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouarzazate_Solar_Power_Station

Most petroleum producers rebranded themselves as energy suppliers quite some time ago, hell, even Saudi Aramco is doing solar ( http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/07/saudis-s... ). It makes s

Someone shot himself in Apple's Cupertino HQ. That does't mean much, as we are not even in the plural of anecdote yet, let alone data.

I was mislead by the non formatting in the HN paste. Looking at https://linux.die.net/man/2/write it's about as good.

That's under Linux (not sure if that man page is maintained by glibc or the kernel seeing as it is a syscall). That's pretty different under a system that cares : http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man2&#x

I'm pretty sure the first photo is from Belgium (Police/Politie gives it, as does the P90 SMG). Civil war, are you sure?

One point that I don't see discussed often, is the background of police officers. How many are Iraq vets that apply in America's streets the exact same methods that made Iraq hell on earth... And why could anyone think applying oc
