Many drugs work differently for different genetic pre-conditions. Making sure that a drug works for the majority of your population is a valid goal. The current climate (due to the pandemic) is to throw many regulations over board. However,

The Luca-App in Germany has been misused DESPITE legislation that reserves use exclusively for Covid-Tracking. Health authorities have been complicit in this. Afaik there where no repercussions for the offenders.

I like the article much but I am missing some statements around IDE. What I like about typed languages is the code completion and refactoring it enables when used in a good IDE. Code completion also enables me to "explore" what is

What's still unclear to me: can you just grab an encrypted device (cold) and decrypt it? Or does the attack require a "live" device i.e one where the passphrase already have been given and the device is online?

I am pretty sure you could build a musket from bronze. Afaik the early cannons where made of it. Sourcing of the ingredients for black powder might have been harder.

I certainly wouldn't want to go to a restaurant which checks my ID. We're heading to a state of affairs where you can't move in public anonymously. This is a dystopian nightmare.

In my experience agile mostly fails because of unrealistic management expectations: Deliver a given set of features in time and quality. Especially C-Suite and one level below has this expectation with no idea what agile really means. From

I'd be happy to see such a counter example. If something can phone home, it will . I've yet to see a purchasing site (= I am the customer) which does not share data with third parties, for example.
