As a matter of strategy, I doubt that developers aren't already downloading key cryptographic libraries out there in order to host them outside the USA. I think news like this might also encourage more people to program encrypted messa

I really like that inspirational editors are mentioned. For one, there were some on there I didn't even know existed. Second, you might want to try out some different ones before you settle on the one you like. Personally I rather like

> This opening line? Yes. I'd suggest you read up on what a hypothetical situation is. Also, did you notice where I wrote about American spin? Yeah, I'd highly suggest reading that part too. :)

I'd suggest you make fewer unsubstantiated claims about people you do not know, AmericanChopper. How does meeting opposing intelligence officers diminish the power of the "message"? It still sends the message that they not on

So tell me, if you got three choices, Russia, Ukraine or Afghanistan, which one would you preferr? The one that actively hunts agents, the one where you might die to an IED, or the one where they're more likely to try to pay you huge s

What would you do if the world's most powerful state sent undercover agents to your country? This is a powerful message to send. It says, "We know what you're doing. Moreover we known who's doing it. And there's a

Friluftsliv can be translated directly as "free air's life." If you go outside, the air is free for everyone. So if you do that, then you're now entering "free air." And if your goal is to enjoy the time in t

I like taking dictates for memos or writing text messages, especially when I'm walking around town and need to pay attention to traffic. It looks like I'm just on my phone as normal, so nobody sees that I'm actually just talk

Wouldn't it be better to simply invest that money in better security to begin with? An insurance scheme looks to me like a great incentive to hack insured servers, in order to cause insurance payouts on top of blackmail. Anyway, just w

A French girl once asked me, "Why is there no salt in your Norwegian butter?" This really got to me. It forced me to ask existential questions like, "Should there really be salt in butter?" But the fact is, putting salt

Chicken is notorious for developing bad bacteria when it gets old. I know two people who got badly sick from eating chicken, and so they'll never ever eat it again. I like it though, but I'll never eat it past the expiry date. AFA

This is an interesting observation. In many respects the TV has taken position that the fireplace used to have. What we're missing is thus those deep and cozy fireplace conversations. I also like the idea of nooks and crannies. Perhaps
