That's not a problem with anticipation as a concept, that's a problem with bad anticipation. Certainly it's possible to detect whether the car is in a closed garage, and it will eventually be possible to predict whether you w

Which is clearly a different trademark despite the fact that they share one word that is key to describing the product's functionality. Might as well compare Burger King and Whataburger.

Yes, I know. If you look at their relationship after that suit and after iTunes launched, it's clear that it was only the latter that was a "problem".

I had never heard of any but the first and Microsoft and Xamarin are so tight I had assumed it was just Visual studio with Xamarin sprinkles on top.

So is "Word". I would be equally surprised if Google released word processing software called "Android Word".

Do you have any examples of some that act as IDEs or similar? The ones I know of are all created by Microsoft. Apple Records didn't have a problem with Apple Computer until Apple Computer started selling music.

Yes. There is at least Windows App Studio ( http://appstudio.windows.com ) that I know of offhand and Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio ( http://www.microsoft.com/robotics ) that I found in 5 seconds of searching.

Does Microsoft really not care when competitors release their own IDEs called * Studio?

Rare inconvenience may be more easily tolerated, but it is no less inconvenient. The fact that you can even say "well it's only 2 days delay" seems insane to me.

Different axis aka not security. The security is much better. But it's slow and inconvenient.

Most customers find it convenient that the exchange they use doesn't abruptly get all its (and by extension, its clients') assets seized by government officials for not complying with financial regulations.

Surely informing you that you were wrong should be sufficient to prompt you to look up what I was actually referring to. It would take all of 4 seconds. If you're not going to do even that little, rudely stop replying.

I'll take that as a no, since you've clearly confused it with Occam's.

It's not a productive line of argument. We want to keep doing those things. Might as well say that the solution to traffic accidents is for everyone to stop driving.

Surveillance on specific targets is only useful if we are allowed to assume that surveillance sometimes works.

I already gave you my evidence - the current state of American speeding enforcement and surveillance. If you don't like it, that's not my problem. And no, this has nothing to do with what I want. I'd love the opposite to be t

That's not what unfalsifiable means. If it were false, we would see evidence, such as speed limits being lower and actually respected, and strong widespread opposition to government surveillance. I think the word you're looking fo

A poll would merely tell you what people say they value. What people actually value is apparent from reality.

Most people value the ability to drive 5 mph faster more than they value the right to not be constantly monitored by the government. Sorry you had to find out this way.

It's not correct to lump all westerners into one group like that. Although this attitude is probably quite foreign to Americans, I see it quite often among Swedes and Danes.

One of the flaws about talking with an overloaded term like "security". If even abstractly, something does not work, what's the point of arguing about its technical details? As you said before, DNSSEC is fine if you concede .

The whole concept of certificates in the first place relies on your ability to keep the private key secret. You know what you really have no recourse to? The police coming when you are asleep and "interrogating" you until you give

The security community is not in any one place. The only thing even theoretically secure to a government is another government, and reality almost always falls short of that. That has nothing to do with technology, just politics.
