I wonder if this can be worked around by storing a list of hashed domains to compare to instead?

It would, just the hardware/admin/maintenance costs would dominate instead.

I'd recommend knowing about bootstrapping[1], there must be simpler articles but the basic idea is to randomly sample with replacement to generate new datasets which can then be used to test the variation of properties of the original

Can't these proofs be useful in the context of "given that X is true we can say that"? In that case it doesn't matter how X was proven, it just provides a tool for future mathematics.

I think you can also be charged if a currency conversion is involved (both directly and indirectly through poor exchange rates).

It's possible to detect even if the packets can't be decrypted (there are commercially available solutions for corporate firewalls as well). This post gives some interesting insight into some of their blocking capabilities.[1] [1]

One password has similar behaviour as well as verifying the integrity of the browser[1]. It's not perfect, I'm sure a malicious extension would be unimpeded, but these little features all added up and eventually made me switch. [1

I think using "convert x to y" is linguistically okay as you're referring to a type conversion. Both x and y refer to objects which can be related to each other somehow. The same way a US plug adapter is used to convert a Eur

nano century = 100 * 365.25 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1e-9 = 3.15576 (nano century - π)/π = 0.45% So a nano century is equal to π seconds within half a percent which is more than good enough for casual uses as an approximation.

That would be nice, it's a shame it could just as easily result in an increase of military spending to fund a space program to come invade.

I feel like this article is confusing numerical precision with "precision measurements". The latter typically means that the focus has moved from discovery of a given process, to measuring its properties with high precision, where

That's okay unless you allow users to bring there own devices, then you have users which are taught to bypass certificate errors on a daily basis.

Or just a block of colour which will be very efficient. If there are images they are probably jpegs and can be embedded in the PDF without any loss of quality while still keeping the quality benefits of a vector format for text.

No you don't, HTML has massive variation between devices and what software is used to display it. Try setting your screen resolution to 640x480 and opening a webpage or, even worse, modifying DPI. PDFs on the other hand specify exactly

Printing tries to reformat the page to fit on some paper size and often removes details such as the background. Often it would be nice to make a PDF that shows a screenshot of the full current page, extensions exist for this but ntjifn nati

The problem then is that you've made a knowily declared false information which itself is a crime a could reasonably be used to investigate further. If you wish to visit the US these are the rules you have to accept. Personally I'
