Space-privacy tradeoff, sounds fair.

First dialup connections were 1200bps. Earlier adhoc connections were lower.

Doesn't change the practical effect of being slightly safer than the neighbor.

Compared to what alternative?

Use physical tokens. Passwords is not the future.

What's that adage? Every metric that becomes an optimization target ...

Then make sure the index is owned by a cooperative of all the developers (with appropriate ground rights), not by some arbitrary third party?

At the time? The Revolution-era US was none of the things that the linked article quotes as examples of exceptional greatness. It was a relative backwater, facing internal and external security threats and struggling to get a national gover

I mean, confederacies are older than monarchies in human history. Even in N. America there was the Iroquois Confederacy right there. Not to take away from the rebellion and the formalization of political philosophy, but this is typical puff

So... Balwani was scapegoated because more dirt was attached to him, while "Lizzie" ran away?

It costs money for the hospital to do payroll for the CEO too but that never gets dropped somehow!

by pishpash 4y ago
What's cost though? You've seen inflation when the supply chain is constrained. This is the case with medicine so the cost is possibly infinity here.

by pishpash 4y ago
No you can't. Some specialists are referral only. They do this to satisfy medical necessity requirements to make sure they get paid by insurance.

I'm not optimistic. The data that has been out there for years has not yielded end-user usable information. There is too much missing context and billing trickery that it's not possible to tell how much something costs unless you&

Building housing and infrastructure can be a jobs program. Science itself (e.g. Apollo program, even though that's dual use) can be a massive jobs program. Being the security apparatus of the world as a pure play though is a choice, an

Send a particle up then, like anti-missiles. It seems the problem is collection and tracking!

Can those be studied vs building constrained accelerators?

by pishpash 4y ago
No, politicians are very (street) smart. Science produces results in the long-term, but elections are every x years and a career is maybe y years, all of which are shorter than the time in which science will show definitive results. So poli

Just a few days ago weren't people saying nothing was discovered since the Higgs boson and it was a waste of money?

To grow the science pie you need to shrink the military pie. To shrink the military pie you need to make profiting off of science much more lucrative than profiting off of slaughter.

Wouldn't their incentive be the opposite? To get more total dollars so there is more profit at the capped margin.

Sometimes they aren't allowed to offer a cash option at all, if you've told them you have insurance.

Of course there is a strategy, and not only from the CCP side. It's a power struggle to retain vs. subvert power between the Chinese state and the Western sphere of influence in East Asia. The battle lines have shifted from one outlyin

So, phone CAPTCHA, yeah that's going to get attacked just as easily when scam money is involved.

Be careful what you wish for, I can see a future where it's like EM today, the entire environment saturated with spread-spectrum (audio) noise and everyone has to wear a filtering+array gain device in their ear.

Interesting interpretation of this as a high-density high-resolution array! But does it need to be isolated well from movement? Since sound wavelengths are long, so maybe not?
