The US used to have a great First-To-Invent patent system. It disappointingly switched to First-To-File in 2013 and these patents you are seeing are the result. With FTI Google could use the compression technique without filing because if s

Presumably the application that accesses encrypted passwords in the database also has the decryption key close at hand. So if that application is compromised the attacker has access to both the encrypted data and the key to decrypt it. If t

Sorry you are getting downvoted into oblivion. From the descriptions in this article it does sound like a solidly middle-class couple who are _choosing_ to live this lifestyle. Money is not tight if they are Lyft'ing to the grocery sto

A side note but something that this article relates to. Here in Pacific Beach California, the traffic engineers have created a perfect storm of pedestrian danger. See, they've installed these lighted flashing crosswalk signs activated

Seems as if this is a reasonable request, which is being framed as an unreasonable one. WalMart has asked a Data-Warehousing service (via its customer) to please not do what it does - data-warehouse internal information about sales, revenue

All of the 'science' links reference studies on plasma - and their website even. https://www.ambrosiaplasma.com/ . So they are using plasma, which it's legal for a person/donor to sell. Is there any way

Afaik after the explosion no nearby car would run, and the advice to 'tune in a radio' seems futile as the EMP would zorch the modern electronics in either device. BTW if you want real nightmare stuff, google the casualty rates af

TLDR - this extends an order which allows for adding persons and organizations to the OFAC SDN list for attacks. The SDN list is a list of people who can't enter the US and can't do business with US people and businesses.
