Is there a nice solution for multiparty (n >= 3) end-to-end encryption?

It was simple enough for me as a non-crypto guy - in fact, it seemed mostly obvious.

Unserious surprise summarised it nicely for me; It does not mean that Markov chains are better - something trained to make predictions should ideally not fall too far away from our own internal prediction engines (which have been honed acro

If you want insertion order you need something like a LinkedHashMap. Java's had that forever, but it's not really a common use case.

It is when 90% of hiring decisions go in favour of the 'unprivileged' despite them making up a far smaller percentage of the total population.

It's DEI bullshit, but the biggest problem I have with DEI is the rejection of competence in favour of pandering - and here, they managed to both pander and hire people competent enough to do the actual job. It seems far less toxic to

Blame leaked documents from the intelligence services. No one really bothered until it was revealed that organisations like the NSA were exfiltrating unencrypted internal traffic from companies like Google with programs like PRISM.

One thing that seems interesting to me is Paul Stamets' work around mushroom nectar. Now I have no bloody idea whether or not anything he's come up with has been independently validated (and I really should) but his claims (at lea

I'm wondering if there's someway of abusing the heuristic to produce an absolute monster of a maze; Somehow make it so that the top ~70% of next steps in the queue are never the next step in the solution (I'm too tired right

Well, that's annoying if you need precision of meaning in a discussion.

You can provide definitions for irrational numbers, but they'll be expressed in terms of infinite serieses (what the hell is the plural form of series?). So, if ever you try to expand them, you'll need to truncate at some point. T

Don't know about that - but we're incredibly sensitive to some minor changes to faces; I saw a clip not too long ago of a face digitally transitioning between male and female, the changes themselves were incredibly subtle, and yet

No? It's a meritocracy - evolution wouldn't spit out something that inefficient.

There's a huge value in being able to automate conversion, especially on an active project with several teams working on features for several different clients (where downtime simply is not an option). Having dealt with a similar probl

The natural numbers are a subset of the integers. Either just the positives or the positives and zero.

The update date on the page is within the last week, so their may have been some progress in some direction. Still can't tell what that direction is though.

Is this a preview feature in mainline, or are they still working on a branch? I couldn't tell from the page.

That explanation seems wrong - or rather it seems to address a completely unrelated question. The convention by which an electron is negative and a proton positive is arbitrary and could be flipped; Indeed it could be replaced by any pair o

They attempted to virtue signal to a market with a very low interest in beer, while at the same time pushing away anyone sick of constant virtue signalling. And who's sick of the virtue signalling? Beer drinking straight dudes. It&#x27

It's pretty clear from the tone of his comments that he's not complaining, knows he was being unreasonable, and is treating this whole thing as a joke already.

Sure, but it's kind of a moot point when the issues have such an impact on consumer confidence.

The reason that they're losing money is that nobody trusts their planes - because they're badly designed and prone to falling out of the sky.

Bonus question 2 is the most ridiculous straw man I've seen in a very long time. The existence of arbitrary string encodings in transcendental numbers proves absolutely nothing about the processing capabilities of adaptive algorithms.

That's not the most constructive way of dealing with criticism. I get that people having a problem with the way that your company does business might seem like a personal attack (especially if you're the CEO), but that sort of ins
