No. It does not appeal to me at all. I think I would have thought that it was the bee's knees when I was a young teenager, though.

On a one lane road with a broken single yellow line, possibly turning into a driveway. I generally get very cautious about people going way too slow for a road and wouldn't whip past them, but possibly the other driver thought that OP

Not OP but I "read" about 150+ books each year (90 so far this year) and usually more than half of those are audiobooks that I listen to at high speed (2.5x-3x) while doing other things. The others I usually read at the gym. I don

I was talking about MITM certificates. I don't really understand why a university is not just getting a certificate from a CA in the trusted store, but I would have many fewer qualms about something that is not a general MITM certifica

I don't think it's currently correct (there's a base unit, but I don't know if it's that's hard limit or if it can be changed in future versions), but the difference is that when the government prints money, th

I don't particularly trust either, but: 1. The university is explicitly asking to MITM your traffic, so that's an automatic no-go on any of my devices for me. At least other CAs will be punished if caught. 2. I'm fairly certa

Accepting a university cert seems like a terrible idea. I would look into a mobile hotspot or, even better, transferring to a different university. https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/104576/my-colle...

I think my pack rat tendencies come from the fact that I very frequently MacGyver stuff up in a hurry, so a lot of stuff I have I don't use, but having raw materials and tools around is usually handy, even if I don't know how they

I don't think that's what "too big to fail" means. It doesn't mean that you are so big that failing is impossible, it's that you are so big that if you fail you'll take the whole industry with you, thus it

I don't know the actual state of it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were easy for screen readers to interpret emoji, since you just have to have it read out the human-readable name accompanying the Unicode codepoint. You'd

Not sure if something has changed since you left this comment, but the astrological / alchemical symbols at the top of the page are links directly to the sun and each of the planets.

I would consider naming it something other than a common English phrase, honestly. I know it's the big trend these days, but it's making things incredibly hard to search for. Try searching for the messaging service "matrix&qu

Well the scenario I'm envisioning is that sign-then-encrypt guarantees that no signatures were stripped off in transit, that's all. It prevents people from saying that an encrypted message (which they were unable to read) came fro

Except what about the case where someone can spoof that an encrypted message came from them? In that case, you want the signature somewhere inaccessible, so that they can't selectively strip it off.

I don't see how this follows. If I am selling cars that are incredibly cheap, safe, reliable and comfortable but invariably smell like wet dog, should I focus all my efforts into the parts I'm already doing well just because the c

I understand that the dot/feather thing is considered crass, but I will say it's a bit overboard to be offended at it. The idea isn't that all India Indians have dots or whatever, it's just synechdoche, where one aspect

Follow-up question, what if you put a separate microphone further away from the speaker to get a synchronized sample of the background noise to subtract away? I suspect the logical end to that sort of thing is to use multiple microphones to

On Android, KeePassDroid registers as a keyboard to prevent other apps from retrieving your passwords from the clipboard. Not super familiar with iOS, but it seems like a good practice anyway, independent of its utility in circumventing asi

48% being the population of contributors actually seems like a fairly low number, given that your average project probably has 1, maybe 2 maintainers. If you had even 3 casual contributors to a 1-man operation, that would be 75%.

This is probably my US-centrism talking, but it seems like the title could be updated to reflect that this is India 's Supreme Court, not the US Supreme Court.

I think he means that you put stickers on every utility pole and see which ones they take down to "keep their secret". Unless you mean how do you detect utility poles, in which case visually should suffice ;)
