Besides the companies other people have mentioned (Cisco, RedHat, IBM), there are many others that either have long-established or are trying to grow their presence in the Triangle area.

Google (Chapel Hill -- small engineering office mostly used to recruit interns from UNC & Duke)

Citrix (downtown Raleigh -- I think this is their biggest office outside Santa Clara, and they consistently have 50-75 job openings there)

NetApp, Microsoft, Lenovo (their HQ), IBM (still a major presence even though it's shrunk a lot over the past decade), Genband/Avaya/Ciena (all created after Nortel's implosion), BASF, Bayer CropScience, SAS (HQ), John Deere, Credit Suisse, Cree (HQ), EMC, Fidelity Investments, RTI International, the US EPA, and many more.

In biotech, there's, Pfizer, Biogen, Merck, UCB Biosciences, Quintiles, Parexel, PPD, United Therapeutics, Glaxo SmithKline, Syngenta, and many, many more pharmas & CROs.

There is little or no proprietary magic in ECU code. Publishing buildable, verifiable code should be a regulatory requirement for ECUs, and probably many other devices.
OK, it doesn't refute that point if they're all cheating.

In that case, what refutes the point is simply that businesses usually keep their code secret by default, and require some motivation to open them. They may take advantage of closed source to do bad things, but those bad things are not the reason for closed source.

I'm not saying the idea makes sense, but if you assume that the original owner announces the creation of the painting on the blockchain (we know this is legit because the owner has posted their public key in the past) and every legitimate transaction posts it to the blockchain, then:

If you steal the key, the painting is legally yours. Congratulations! You may send the police to collect your prize.

If you steal the painting, everyone you try to sell it can verify that you're not the real owner. That limits you to black market transactions, I guess.

If there are two claims for the same painting, it's trivial to trace them back to their source and see which one goes back to the original owner.

You prove thing == key by means of a perfect, tamper-proof sticker, which I'm sure someone will invent any day now.

You prove there aren't two keys by looking at the original owner's postings to the blockchain and making sure he hasn't listed the item twice.

If you lose the key, you can never sell the painting legally. At first I thought you could just invalidate the old key and assign a new one, but how can you do that in a tamper-proof way without access to the old private key? I guess if my identity is a separate key, I could post a message saying, "This is X, you know it's really me because here's my digital signature, you can verify that on this date I owned the thing, and I'm telling you to stop using public key Y for it and to use public key Z instead." Now there are two keys, and we have to assume the technology is good enough that no one could be tricked into using the old key; otherwise, I could sell the painting twice.

The real problem is definitely proving that thing == key. Once you have that, you have a system which kinda works (but is in every way worse than just using whatever tamper-proof technology it relies on for a title / certificate of authenticity, as joosters points out).

Perhaps upon submission there should be a required option to state whether the text is fanfiction. Regardless of quality, by including fanfiction among other works, you've reduced the average perceived quality SIGNIFICANTLY. Because everyone's seen one or two tremendous fanfic trainwrecks in their time and that's enough to make them avoid an inclusive community entirely.

It's ok to allow fanfic, just make sure it's clearly labeled and filter-able.

I'm sure Capone really had evaded taxes. But the idea that the government couldn't get him on anything besides tax evasion is pretty sad.

The idea that the police or prosecutor has to "prove" all this stuff is nice, but not in line with reality. Warrants get issued on suspicion all the time. There's not a pre-trial trial to determine in front of a jury if the suspected encrypted volume is in fact an encrypted volume.

The judge orders you to provide the password and if you don't you're held in contempt for as long as you don't. Which, if you don't know the password, could be the rest of your life.

That's why some in law enforcement might be tempted to invent an encrypted volume that doesn't exist. Because it short-circuits the normal judicial process. And when you know someone is guilty but the damn red tape gets in the way, it can be tempting to try and make things "right".

I think because every LTE band you want to support requires its own front end with its own power management. The iPhone 6s is as close to a universal SKU as you get with LTE so they pack lots of those.

From a quick look at the code for Shaky, getting "cleaner" drawings would only require replacing 2 functions (shakyLine and bulb). In "bulb" it'd just require removing one line and changing one. In shakyLine you'd need to strip out most of it and replace it with a 1-2 line version.

Isn't it an exaggeration to say the ads are unblockable even on apps on phones? The apps generally do have more control on what's shown and what's not. To start, couldn't the ads be filtered and masked from one's router or on a (home) proxy server that one uses? The apps could be written such that they detect if an ad is being replaced with empty content, but I don't think the apps are there yet.

On this topic, what are the latest alternatives available for routers/proxy servers that are as good as uBlock Origin (or ABE) on the desktop (sharing the same popular block lists)?

There are a lot of bad reasons for "closely guarded" IP:

1. The government told you to put spyware in e.g. your mobile baseband processor

2. Your GPU violates a lot of patents

3. You ECU implements dark patterns w.r.t. emissions testing

Make regulations requiring publishing the code, and require making the toolchain available to code can be verified vs. the shipped image. Proprietary software isn't a valid excuse when the stakes are to poison the environment.
> The new LED pattern replaces the current pattern on the egg donor’s badge

So there are some constraints here that point toward what a version 2 could look like. Under the current paradigm, every child has a unique set of parents - there are no full siblings. And there are no cousins through the egg donor side. Like real sex, there is no way to take an exceptionally fit egg donor and see what the child could look like with different sperm donors - you can do this with Electric Sheep though. Electric Sheep breeds randomly and has an upvote/downvote feedback mechanism, some kind of additional feedback mechanism could be added to these badges to hasten evolution.

It seems like the constraints to the badge are by virtue of it relying on physical hardware of which finite instances are available, whereas Electric Sheep is limited only by much more vast software resources. So maybe the badge creatures have a lifecycle, when they reproduce instead of replacing the egg donor immediately, the child enters a pool waiting to spawn in the next available deceased badge creature?
Vintage electronic music gear, which is still widely popular with certain genres of music, use floppies heavily.

12-bit samplers like the E-mu SP-1200 and Akai MPC60 which are still popular with hip hop producers rely on floppies. A number of other classic samplers and synthesizers use them as well. There's a lot of demand for floppies in that community.

The cause is pretty easy to defend and I agree they need to make their arguments more explicit. Also, many of those articles mention "If..., we could have done ...", but few demonstrate that there is enough budget and attention to spare for non-corporate inspection of car software. For example it would be very pragmatic to ask "Copyright office, is it now ok to inspect Audi's software even against DMCA rules?"

I was told in a French garage that only Renault had an ecological malus whereas the 4 competitors for this car claim to be complying. Should we start inspecting those?

Yes it is. And if hundreds or thousands of people had died from windows vulnerabilities and tremendous environmental damage had been done, that might well have happened.

Most of the security breaches are due to people doing stuff really wrong not just a late patch. And even then I haven't heard of anyone dying as a result yet.

People have probably died (if you believe public health stats) as a result of increased NOx production of these vehicles. There's also been a lot more pollution. Big, big pollution problems have caused substantial changes to things, like the creation of the EPA here in the US.
Embedded Windows in the UI (if present) would probably account for a large fraction of those.
Finding vertical & finding north is not a problem, you can get that trivially in a tiny MEMS IMU if you don't want to do it manually, and from there determine the optimal path for solar tracking without added variables, supposing you have the timezone set by the distributor (or use a GPS for that at a few dollars a chip).

The cost is in the rotating frame and the motors.

What the Heck Is a Monad
I love it too. Conscious self-awareness is arguably not very useful. It pretends to be in control, but mostly it's just observing what the mind has already done, and makes up stuff to rationalize it. At best, that's merely superfluous. But at worst, consciousness gets in the way, and generates counterproductive emotional states. But fortunately, ones mind can trick its consciousness into being useful :)

Okay, so looking over the post they didn't feel like CVSS 2 was giving a clear indication of risk, and CVSS 3 isn't done yet and lacks perfection. That's sensible enough, I suppose.

I hope they took more than a glance at what some other vendors are doing (EG Microsoft) before adding to what can already be a confusing collection of incompatible qualitative ratings :/

As noted by other commenters here a vague description of the category and some idea of the global risk, with a spot for you to add local risk seems a good tool here that serves both attack and defense with some balance. Oh, wait, we have that already in CVSS!

There are many types of radiations:

---

For sterilization, they will probably use gamma rays. They are strong enough to break a lot of chemical molecules, and then kill all the bacteria. But the gamma rays are not strong enough to break the atoms nuclei or make them radioactive. So the rover will be sterilized but not radioactive.

This is similar to the process that irradiate food with gamma rays. You can store them in a perfectly sealed place without refrigeration and they a are safe to eat because they don't have bacteria and they don't have radiation. So this is a safe method. More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_irradiation

---

Another different radiation process is to irradiate it with neutrons. It kills the bacteria but it also may make some nuclei radioactive. (I don't know the necessary doses, so perhaps this may be safe, but I'd be much more careful. Something like this is used to treat cancer. Also, this don't produce a lot of radioactive atoms, and the rover is small, so the radioactive material will be not too much. Anyway, as I said before, I'd be much more careful.)

---

Another possibility is mixing the food (for example a tea) with some radioactive material (for example plutonium). This kill the bacteria but also may kill whoever takes it. If you are very careful with the doses, you may use something like this for medicine applications (for example with radioactive iodine). But I guess that if the dose is low enough not to kill the patient, it will not kill all the bacteria. This is definitively not the method they may use to sterilize a rover.

> I know that without water life would have never begun, but I still don't fully understand why it is necessary.

"Life" is a bunch of chemical processes. A necessary prerequisite is therefore a solvent in which those chemical processes can occur, and which can move substances around, whether it's within a cell, an organism, or an environment.

Of all the potential solvents, solids can't move stuff around, and in gases, only volatile and highly concentrated substances would have a chance to react. It's also too easy to move around in a gas: potential gas-based "life" would just...fall apart.

So the solvent and carrier being a liquid is also likely a prerequisite for life. It also has to stay a liquid at a relatively wide range of temperatures, and be abundant enough so that all the rare coincidences that might lead to life have a chance of happening and perpetuating.

Water is the only molecule that fits the bill, and happens to be the second most common molecule in the universe.
