I'll rephrase what I was trying to say: If I'm expecting encrypted email, I don't expect it formatted as HTML, so I can just disable its rendering. At which point the attacker can send it any format they want, my mail client

> not to use HTML emails, which seems unlikely in practice In a context where pgp is used, which is not me receiving promotional material or forwards from Grandma, why do you consider it unlikely that mail is to be sent as plaintext and

Your comment presupposes that software never ever has bugs, which is clearly hard for any non trivial piece of code. Furthermore, the big is in the decryption part of pgp, so the security of the encrypted communication doesn't seem to

In Venetian they translated it as "My boat is full of eels". We don't have a word for hovercraft. "Barchin" is actually a small personal boat. Also, happy to see they have a Venetian version :)

Color me interested. Where can I find a codebase that uses this? Especially inheritance.

Could it be the influx of traffic with the same referral link that tripped some defense mechanism?

I guess you meant homophonic. Anyway, for example "a" and "à" are homophones. As are "la" and "là". A nice one is "chasse"/"châsse". Both are pronounced \ʃas\ but the first on

You should take a walk in Venice. All the problems you mentioned plus the peculiarity that there's only the "sidewalk".

In defence of this, one can still vote to reopen a question. If enough people did this maybe it would help with the situation.

Not that I'm surprised, but there's a terrible mismatch between the article title and its content. "Venus may show us the possible future of Earth" is very different from "Earth is doomed to become like Venus".

If you only socialize with co-workers I'd say that is the bigger problem. All my interaction with people outside office hours are with people I don't work with. Should I consider myself privileged in this respect?
