Buy 3 keys, keep one with yourself, one at home and one in a distant relative's basement. Preferably the latter two in fireproof safes.

And where does that independent company focused on privacy get its money from?

Which is exactly why the protocol is: 1. Your phone transmits a temporary random number. 2. Your phone stores, but never uploads, list of all the numbers it has seen for a prolonged period. 3. Your phone downloads daily a list of published

Sad reality: Countries can always push, say, for mandatory upload of all cryptographic keys to government servers. We have to trust in megacorp lawyers to protect us from that at least to the point of exposing that come election times.

Nobody seems to mention an important aspect: megacorps like Microsoft, Amazon, Google or Oracle hire thousands of engineers each year. It's not particularly hard for a bad actor to get an agent hired into their target and gain access,

I'm afraid we won't see this limit getting hit in our lifetimes though. The gap is way too many orders of magnitude.

I've had none of the issues you mentioned, some 40-ish hours into the game. I don't even get much in terms of visual glitches, other than sometimes a character's rendering starting slow (first a bald head, then the headgear,

Oh, the AI is really killing me, especially in Silverhand scenes. You can pretty much aim at an empty space and wait for a head to appear there, because it's obvious they will move there before shooting you :(

I've worked on several separate projects of that size in C++ and Go. None of them seemed to achieve a similar mess as Python codebases with one or two dozen thousand lines seem to. OTOH, all the typing developments in Python should hav

It might have been read by people without the proper background. Even though I can grok the math, upon reading this I would go "oh, interesting what they resort to in this field".

Until they lose peripheral vision later in their lives, people's field of view is about 180 degrees.

Typically the term "abuse" is reserved for cases where you offer free backups of a phone and someone figures out how to mount their 16TB media collection into that, or unlimited email and someone writes emailfs. You can make a pro

Isn't this how recommendations in social networks work?

Well, sure. But you can outsource it pretty successfully in many cases. Absorbing someone else's complexity is what my job in Google is about.

Wasn't the point of serverless to reduce complexity?

I wonder how long would adoption take. The hardware and software progress around sound seems to be way slower than around image. Which is understandable, as thanks to the lower data rates stuff has been "good enough" for a long ti

My sister buys stuff from stores that advertise this to be the recommended way to buy. Huge box in, huge box out, still cheaper than renting brick and mortar space.

"Kill" is a very strong exaggeration though. Pretty much all the proper research I've ever stumbled upon claimed no measurable effect of child car seats or booster seats over the age of 8. First hit from Google today: https:

It isn't putting your issue tracking into an equivalent of a git repository. It just contains a rather standard-looking issue tracker, along a wiki for documentation, in the same sqlite. And they are distributed/synchronized just

It's not that difficult, just a piece of work. Google has teams dedicated to just that kind of work and internally has the automated dashboards that update real-time. The confusion here is that the page linked is not it. This is some s
