Exactly what I was trying to say but likely did it wrong. I rather have a secure modular system than a single protocol that does everything. We simply just can't leave it as JMAP+SSL because once SSL cannot be trusted, it should be eas

No clue at the moment, this is still a big problem and something Fastmail already knows based on the comment here from robn_fastmail. If we have a solution, everybody would be using it by now. PGP or SIME was going to be it back in 90s but

No, I'm not assuming anything and didn't even say anything like that. My point is that using SSL on its own as the only line of defense should not be an excuse not to have anything else. It's like saying my apartment doesn&#x

You're assuming SSL is implemented without any security bugs. We saw what happened with Heartbleed and when SSL implementations are not properly reviewed and updated by a full funded team.

As far as anybody can tell and based on his comments, no he doesn't have any patents. He mistakenly thought his algorithm was copyrighted and algorithms are not copyrightable in US and generally in many countries around the globe.

Wait, WTF... At the end: > Overall, the auto bailout was the one big money loser for TARP. Even with the Ally sale, taxpayers lost about $9.2 billion. Do they mean it could have been 15.3 + 9.2 billion in the end for the total $24.5 bill

Wow, while the article mentioned it a few times, they don't seem to actually find the pattern that would come up with a better title. Gen-Y isn't a cheap generation, they simply have less money to spend or can afford anything. Tha

Rant/opinion incoming because I honestly don't know all of the anti-trust rules and such. I see this as a serious question for Apple because it is entirely their fault that they may have harmed this company from a lot of revenue i

It is possible but would it be effective? Not likely, several countries tried to do this to prevent the citizen uprising and it didn't work. NK could just sent agents outside of the country, hack the data, and bring it back in. They ca

There's a note below the second chart. They're talking about the value of producing these over a period of time. Coins last much longer, 25 years compared to 6 years for a dollar bill. So, how much do they really cost in the long

Really? If the country's economy is solely affected by outsiders, then you really have a bigger problem and should only blame yourself.

A company makes a smart decision to pause sales in order to ensure they're not selling their products at a loss due to the drop on the value of rubies.... One shouldn't expect otherwise.

Too Slow for Production _for now_. Swift hasn't even been out for a year. Look at the progress it made since summer, it sped up a lot in certain parts. Just file a radar on what's slow and they'll fix it. Apple intentionally

Why not? This is Apple we're talking about, they're famous for getting rid of older stuff. A lot of experienced Apple developers do not expect Apple to support two languages for a long time. With all the noise Apple made about Swi

One begs the question, can companies like Apple with complete vertical integration leap other companies by taking advantages of these newer technologies, even if it is more expensive? Also, are HBM and HCM available to be used now or are th

This is great news, I'm glad to see the women get the help they need and this is how what laws related to these crimes should be; stop blaming the victims in the first place and preventing people from becoming victims next. Criminalize

What consensus? All I'm seeing are assumptions that being able to read code easily means it is more secure. Someone can easily write an open-source project that looks like it is a secure project but can easily be misused to do bad thin

Think about this the over way around. Russia thinks you broke some laws or said something bad about their president and wants to access your blog data that's stored on the US servers. The company that is hosting your data is Microsoft.
