I'm not too familiar with the practice, but Zero-based Budgeting (ZBB) seems like it can solve this problem. It basically requires constant justification of the budget (as if you were making a budget from scratch) rather than looking a

This is not always possible due to the halting problem [1] and Gödel's incompleteness theorems [2]. It is not always possible to formally determine/prove the behavior of a program. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wik

Sorry - just saw this! So think of the sbox as a function. What happens if you apply the function over and over again? The order of a group like that would be small (particularly since the sboxes are random). Also, the output space of the h

It's probably an academic exercise (perhaps to demonstrate how not to make a secure hash function). It's is pretty poorly designed.

Most modern browsers are designed to prevent IDN homoglyph attacks by using Punycode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode This shouldn't be much of a concern these days.

I agree. My favorite part is when they examine average temperature by birth decade within each cohort, under the assumption that differences in birth decade will not affect the accuracy of the measuring technique. > To minimize these bia

They accounted for that possibility: > One possible reason for the lower temperature estimates today than in the past is the difference in thermometers or methods of obtaining temperature. To minimize these biases, we examined changes in

You can also have more precise time stamps with the Roughtime protocol [1] (Peter Todd has talked about this [2]), although it is easier for the servers in the Roughtime protocol to cooperate and forge time stamps than in Bitcoin. Another w

How would this work? We’d still need something that can detect similar/probably deepfaked content (a good cryptographic hash has random distribution).

What’s wrong with just a hash of all the relevant files? You can then store the actual files conventionally and provide them upon request. The security guarantees are still there (you implicitly trust SHA256’s resistance against collision a

Yeah, having an open, easy to verify standard is part of what makes a “proof” a good proof. No need to reinvent the wheel here.

I agree that this article does seem clickbaity (mainly the money picture and the tone). However, I think it does bring up interesting points about the impacts of the food delivery war and perhaps some antitrust issues with the tactics used.

Nice article! I'm curious if you would be willing to open source the code and data behind this article – I'm interested in verifying other VPN providers and services as well as playing around with some of the data.
