A yearly review of all of the laws would be labour intensive (read expensive). Governments will simply say "reviewing all the laws means we have to raise taxes to pay for the review, so instead we're going to do a blanket refresh

Can you run it through the colormap in reverse to (approximately) recover the data?

Lots of things use TLS that is much smaller than a bloated webpage, for example REST APIs.

by kardos 8y ago
Would two signatures on the same cert fit the bill? Two complete certs is twice as much data to transmit, making the TLS setup a bit heavier.

Broadly speaking, that is because we're approaching something like a carrying capacity, estimated to be somewhere around 10B. If we increase land use efficiency dramatically, that effectively raises the carrying capacity and population
314.
by kardos 8y ago
Not really. Even if we triple land use efficiency, population growth will increase the demand to compensate

According to this paper [1], the salinity is 7.5-10 g/L, which is one quarter to one third of ocean salinity. Wikipedia [2] also states the lake is "brackish" -- meaning less salty than seawater but more salty than freshwaste

Agreed, see reply to your sibling comment for a less-broken idea

1) Fair enough, 25% of the requests would just take ~4x as long to get a more-or-less complete sampling. So how about a revised version: shard the requests, so CloudFlare only sees A-G, Google only sees H-P, etc. 2) No argument about that.

by kardos 8y ago
Potential workarounds: 1. Round Robin your DoH requests across several providers. Eg, if CloudFlare sees one quarter of your DNS requests it's less revealing then if they see all of them. 2. DNS proxies. Sort of like a VPN for the DNS

It seems to me that distros are in the right position to nudge this in the right direction. For example, Fedora did the /usr merge, moved to systemd, wayland, etc. The great dotfile cleanup would probably work by patching all packaged

Your .ssh/config can handle that for you?

Well that's the (anticipated) bit...

And people keep taking out loans because the (anticipated) ROI is still positive, eg, there is consumer surplus available to be captured

I guess the point is that the other languages are based on C. From your list CPython, CRuby and the GNU assembler are written in C. Not sure about Java. Edit: not necessarily agreeing, there must be some languages that do not rely on C.
