Wow! Look at that sharp decline in volume of mail! It's now 10% of what it was 4 years ago! Oh, wait, the horizontal axis doesn't start at 0.

Maybe it should work by intervals because then it'll also work if you enter a riff in a different key than the original.

This is vulnerable to frequency analysis, though the paper says "nope". If you encode each word separately, like they suggest, you can very easily do frequency analysis based on word frequency. If you don't split up the blo

X/n > Y/m when n and m are both arbitrary. Big whoop. What matters is the market cap. Bitcoin: 14B, gold: 6600B.

Like others have said, this seems to be a generalization of the problem of reinforcement learning. For a good introduction to the subject, check out Reinforcement Learning by Sutton & Barto [1]. After reading the first few chapters, you

The central idea behind basic income is that everyone gets it. Having employment income wouldn't reduce it. So anyone who would have previously worked at McDonalds would still work there if they wanted more money than they already get

I distinguish between chat/non-chat writing, and I don't use periods in chats. For example, I'll usually say things like this: me> i'm gonna give up on GTA IV me> just can't get into it me> especial

If you're interested in this, you should read up on Bell's theorem. [1] [2] The explanation of it I like best is this one (I don't remember where I originally read it): It involves a two player game, the players completely se

Another way of doing this (without versors): Let u and v be the unit vectors of the initial and final click location. We want an R s.t. Ru = v. Create an orthonormal basis ON(u) and ON(v) (you can use the QR decomposition for the vector con

I am extremely annoyed when I try to click at the beginning of a line and I clicked a bit too far left and the cursor gets placed _before_ a space because spaces are being used instead of tabs.

Well, because of the population difference, it's not "way" more eye-popping, though still more uneven than Russia. Ukraine: 45.6M; 50 people = 0.0000012% own 85% Russia: 143.5M; 110 people = 0.0000007% own 35%

Unencrypted communication is also indistinguishable from a MITM attack.

I'm didn't mean NSA specifically; that was just an example. I know it doesn't require massive hardware or anything like that because it doesn't involve breaking the encryption. My original point is twofold: First, having

Still, having #1 is still better than neither. Instead of the NSA (sorry for beating a dead horse) simply siphoning your plaintext off the wire, isn't it more secure if you force them to have to actively fudge every single key exchan

As I understand it, (correct me if I'm wrong), https has two parts: 1. Encryption: protects from eavesdropping (e.g. your internet provider can't see what you're communicating) 2. Authentication: protects from MITM (e.g. some
