There was a lot I liked about Argo but they downplayed Canada's enormous contribution while also whitewashing the main character (who was hispanic in real life). It's one of those things that doesn't seem too bad in isolation but it's just so omnipresent it's hard not to get annoyed by it.
You aren't a critic, you're just being critical.
Fyi,

Skype, Google, YIM, AIM, etc. all store large portions of your communications far longer than you realize and their "clear" mechanisms frequently are local-only. [i.e. Skype, reinstall, things reappear]

> The first thing the article says is that users are probably aware Google stores all of these recordings. I, for one, was not aware. Am I really in the minority?

Nah. Most people are convinced the deletion stuff actually works and/or people wouldn't engage in this sort of behavior and are surprised when they find out.

The reason people don't care about privacy is they don't really comprehend what they've lost and how extensive it is.
Well, I will say that Moxie's needs and risk profile is very different than (presumably yours) or mine; he will be coming at most imaginable court proceedings accused of helping terrorists or at least money-launderers. A warrant canary in that case looks bad; why would any lawyer tell him to do such a thing? It just increases their own risk if they say "that's fine", and then it turns out to hurt.

This isn't the same situation that Apple has; while I bet the motions would be filed under seal, I don't believe it would create significant liability for Apple to have a warrant canary, and then remove it after the canary 'dies'.

In fact, in 2014, Apple's canary did 'die', with no further comment, and no public disclosure that their were material difficulties with the canary. Apple seems to have been working to enhance security on their devices since then. I would take from this that they didn't receive giant, secret penalties from their canary.
I've been using this for several months and it's now an indispensable tool for me. Maybe I just never learned enough Curl options, but I find HTTPie to be so much easier and more intuitive. Paired with jq, it makes my life much easier on a daily basis.
Paparazzi aren't 100% parasitic. A lot of celebrities get benefit from them.

Princess Di was thought to be a master of the press for instance.

There is a certain amount of celebrities creating their own feeding frenzy.

My issue is more when people not in the game get hit by media storms.

Mapbox does a great job of fixing things with out relying on users to do it for OSM! Just drop a pin and type out the problem and Mapbox's data team will likely fix the problem! These changes go right into OSM.
Most of your examples involve affirmative acts that interfere with the police, not merely refusals to help them.

And if you have the key to your nuclear silo in your hand but refuse to unlock the door, the police don't have to lock you up because they can take the key from you instead. But if the lock is a keypad then the scenario is identical to the iPhone and you're just assuming the conclusion. Your argument seems to distill into the idea that if the police can't read your iPhone without violating your constitutional rights then your constitutional rights have to give way.
It's really excellent. Nice work!
Right, forgot about that part. Thanks.
That infographic left out Alaska, Canada and Mexico.

Because we are a schizophrenic society. We don't know what we want.

* We want to rehabilitate but we also want to punish.

* We want to be humane but we also want to kill. So we keep switching around our methods until we got to these drug coctails. Which some first paralize the person, so when dosage is off, they could be in a horrible agony, but you know, they are not thrashing around making unpleasant sounds, so the sensibilities of those watching are not disturbed.

* We want to set an example, so others think twice about commiting heinous crimes, yet we don't televise or publisize executions. Heck, I am all for fishing or cutting bait. If we are going to be tough on crime and hope to scare the bejesus of future criminals by these harsh punishments, we should put them on evening news. You know, kids come home from school, everyone eats dinner, watch an execution (with frequent commercial breaks -- "Buy Tide! For a cleaner, fresher tomorrow"), and then everyone goes to bed.

* We say it is not about revenge and we use euphemisms like "justice" and "closure" instead, but it actually is about revenge.
I used to use this pretty frequently at a previous job that had a weird login flow. The nice part about httpie is the custom authorization implementations (verses chaining a bunch of curl/awk/sed calls to do the flow).

But I fully agree, it's a complement.
That's fine for today's Tesla customer but the analyst's point is that when they go up against the Leaf those customers are going to be a lot less forgiving.
Tesla was founded in 2003 and is now 12 years old. It is not a new company.
Not true -- on newer iPhones this is actually done on dedicated hardware that enforces these limits.

It's actually really impressive.
If they are doing things substantially differently than outlined in that whitepaper, and so actually do have access to locked devices, then they would have just perjured themselves and exposed themselves to extraordinary liability. Which makes me think they are probably telling the truth - short of 0-days, no one has access to locked iOS devices.
Everything you've ever said to Siri has been recorded, and I get to listen to it
That is not good. The least they could do is be explicit and clarify you're deleting the local copy (which I hope is what they're doing).
It sounds Apple is saying "If you don't want law enforcement to to break into your iPhone, buy a newer iPhone."
Physically interfering with the delay/wipe mechanism should be possible. You only have to build the solution once. I can see that this makes it much harder up front, but eventually this too will get cracked.

And at the end of it they had real passport photos of those involved alongside the actor's faces, to be like "hey, we worked really hard to make this historically accurate!"

Assuming we're okay with killing our prisoners, I don't see what's so wrong with death by firing squad. It's cheap, fast, painless, and can be carried out by people who have little training. If you don't want to see the condemned person's discomfort, you could still sedate them just as they do with lethal injection. Maybe death by firing squad doesn't make for as exciting theatrics as the complex and methodical procedures of lethal injection, but I'm sure we could come up with something for the audience. And if that's unpalatable for lawmakers... Maybe we should reconsider the whole thing.
Similarly, we've had electric cars for a while, and we've had high end sports cars and sedans for quite a while, but Tesla came along and blew most of them out of the water. Except for range, which will be solved sooner or later, it's a stunning tour de force, especially coming from an American manufacturer.

I have faith that Elon Musk will also think of a way to disrupt the home energy storage market, which in my opinion scarcely exists anyway. People have clunky, loud generators for emergencies, and it's possible to get rechargeable batteries to store your solar power, but there's not really an elegant solution yet to the after-dark problem. A quiet, high capacity "home battery" such as Tesla is planning might just be the ticket.
You hear that? That's the sound of a million security researchers simultaneously shouting 'Challenge Accepted!'

Teenaged Maker Who Was Arrested for Building a Clock Is Moving to Qatar
I'm with you. Investors/companies have to get into their heads that power transmission will never be as easy as data transmission. There's no power Wi-Fi, only some crude expensive approximations over mediocre distances with mediocre power levels. We could instead focus on improving cables (and confined power in general) -- have them available everywhere, retractable, higher power. There's hardly any physical limit to confined power transmission; if you look at trends into the future you might expect device power consumption to actually rise a little, only furthering the divide. Cables are just so more elegant.

Part of the problem not discussed here is the 'Absorption conflict': for efficient power transmission you need materials that are able to absorb very well the given form of power; but at the same time you want nothing to interact in the path of the unconfined flux. This can only be dealt with up to a point, since our everyday objects' configuration and atomic composition are not so different from the composition of a receiver. This applies to all technologies: even for resonant EM power transfer you are relying on a specific conductor geometry; thankfully there's no strong conductor in our bodies, but you will have to deal with metal parts everywhere.

Wireless information gets around this kind of limitation because power ceases to important for the capacity of a channel [1] past a threshold (roughly when the signal PSD equals the noise PSD), while the determining factor is bandwidth. So you just use a few Ghz+ radiation and you have enormous bandwidth available; once that becomes insufficient we can move to Thz+ light; and so on without much environmental concerns (just medium concerns -- atmosphere gets opaque), since power levels will be kept constant or lower.

Hardware. There is a chip (or a SoC component) called Secure Enclave that holds the real encryption key and accepts PINs or fingerprint data and releases the key.

Of course, there is the potential that Secure Enclave could be updated with new microcode (I have no idea if that is actually possible).

Yup. You can then use the copy command on that variable so you can paste and view the large array or json in your text editor of choice.

Apple has pretty much already been accused of helping pedophiles and drug dealers by FBI & Friends' public whinings about encryption over the past year or so, such as[0].

I thought you were saying EFF's assumption that a court cannot compel a canary to be maintained, would also prevent a court from compelling a software update targeting a certain user. Anyway, I believe we can't trust either a canary or software, because either can probably be compelled.

I checked, the code they're running is ExaBayes.

In my experience, centers like this are under pressure to find biologists to justify their systems, but most of the bio user don't have codes that scale very much. THe "supercomputer" she's running on isn't very super.

Anyway, I used to be in the class of user, but I found that supercomputers never had the throughput to carry out real science. After arguing with DOE that they spent too much money on interconnect (and not really being able to run my codes because they "only" scaled to 1K cores) I moved to Google and built a system called Exacycle which runs embarassingly parallel codes (of which phylo tree generation is an instance; it's basically metropolis monte carlo sampling, although the MPI versions typically do some clever tricks to create long MC chains efficiently). Personally, I think our approach is far superior for all but the most tightly coupled codes- for example, our work doing huge collections MD simulations of proteins generated far more useful data to analyze than if you'd run just one long trajectory (this is a long-running argument in the MD field, but I think we pretty much nailed it in our paper, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24345941

Frankly I don't see many computational science depts making more supercomputer-like services. It's hard to run these systems, they cost a bunch, and they are hard to keep utilized at a rate that is justifying their expense. Commercial clouds are eating away at them- as you say they are basically computers with shitty interconnect. But the reality is that their interconnect is "good enough" for nearly all bio codes I know of. It's far easier for a PI these days to pull out their credit card and pay for grad student cloud use out of pocket than spend time applying for and using supercomputers.
I'm trying to figure out how this is any different from standard LCL. You're just working with another shipper rather than a freight company arraigning it? If that's the case, what's to stop the first guy that unloads from helping himself to some "free samples" of my goods? What ensures that the loads are balanced so the trucker doesn't have one axle overweight? What happens when the other guy's goods get stuck in customs for 2 weeks because he used the wrong HTS?

I'm all for a cheaper LCL option, but LCL is expensive for a reason. I'm interested to see how these guys plan to address the issues here.
That's what I got from the article, the key was wiped because of X many tries so Apple can't "unlock" the data on the device (excluding everything backed up to apple cloud).

In the future they will use shady FinFisher iTunes and other exploits to grab the data then seize the phone.
And today is the day I was reminded that most of the people on this site are probably too young to remember the Microsoft lost a major anti-trust case because of exactly this kind of behavior. They are still a monopoly and still cannot legally take actions like this.

I really don't know what "most users" would think of.
The iOS Security Guide is 60 pages of technical goodness, but when dealing with encryption, it's really not enough to fully understand the system, even putting aside concerns about it being closed-source. There is such an incredible level of detail in the document, it would take a really long time to peel that onion back to be able to claim to really understand the trust model. It's some of the best technical documentation on encryption methods I've read, but even still there is plenty of room for ambiguity.

The key section I think most people really should take a look at is "iCloud Backup" starting on page 42. Almost everything you do with your device will end up in an iCloud Backup if you have enabled that, and while the data is encrypted for transport, note well the following;

The backup set is stored in the user’s iCloud account and consists of a copy of the
user’s files, and the iCloud Backup keybag. The iCloud Backup keybag is protected by
a random key, which is also stored with the backup set. (The user’s iCloud password
is not utilized for encryption so that changing the iCloud password won’t invalidate
existing backups.)

In plain English, if you have enabled iCloud Backup, everything but your keychain itself is accessible in plaintext to Apple, and can be restored, without your password, to any new device that [you / the Feds] may provide.

I would very much love for Apple to provide an opt-in where the iCloud backup key is tied to the account password with extremely aggressive key-stretching. I would take the risk of losing my iCloud Backup over the trade-off of having my backups accessible to Apple and anyone they can be compelled to share them with. But I do appreciate for the average user, it's not uncommon for iCloud Backup to be immediately preceded by a password reset (just look down-thread for an example).

Note, Apple says that they use a combination of S3 and Azure to actually store the iCloud data, but that they have an additional layer of encryption over the data before sending it out. So while backups technically reside on Amazon/Microsoft servers, it's a black box to them.
Ah, from all could see, the article
said next to nothing about how
to detect an exploitation.

Also the article concentrated on
malicious, that is, malware,
exploitations.

Also can define zero day as
any problem never seen before.
The cause might be software
flaws, hardware failures,
human system management errors,
and more, all in addition to malicious causes.

Then for any and all zero day problems,
need to detect, diagnose, and
correct.

So, start at the beginning:
How to detect?

Here issues are, what parts
of, say, a server farm to monitor, what
data to
get and use, what to do
about rates of false alarms
and missed detections,
and more.
My 6 year old was very excited to find the passcode feature on his iPad and disregarded Daddy's direct warnings that if he kept changing the passcode ("soccer", "baseball", etc.) he wouldn't be able to remember the result and would get locked out. This, of course happened, and after some tears, the solution was for me to remote wipe the iPad and then restore from iCloud backup. The whole process was an extremely impressive mix of security and usability.
Or middleclick (https://github.com/cl3m/MiddleClick)
I think people disliked the comment because the question sounded dismissive of the project rather than inquisitive — primarily due to the "yet another," I think. Sort of like how "Who invited you?" is technically a question, but usually functions more like a statement that somebody's presence is unwelcome.
For English (and I think Japanese), HTS with the STRAIGHT vocoder can be pretty amazing. Very amazing. Licensing on both of those pieces is problematic. (Edit: I should probably mention that HTS is not easy to use. It will require some mental fortitude.)

Festival can produce very good results, but you have to get into the weeds with it and do a lot of planning. If you don't like Scheme, you're not going to like dealing with festival, and if you do like scheme, you're going to be frustrated by their particular scheme.

I've also noticed a lot of folks looking at post filtering, but that is a sea of dragons at the moment.
Is gunshot-induced heart failure, along with a dozen gunshot wounds in the chest area, really painless?
And what happens if someone stands in front of it? Are they assuming that the person is inside a metal car?

The maker neglects to mention how much radiation the device emits, and instead distracts us with this useless statistic.
I probably need to re read your article, but where are you getting the assumption that 50% of people aren't doing searches on any given day?

How do you know the spread of data isn't that there are 20% of users who don't use their mobile device for the Internet for 10 days in a row, but then do a lot of searches in a short space of time?

Maybe I'm missing something here, but by taking an average over 30 days, you seem to assume that users do similar numbers of searches every day.
Can't speak for the OP but I'd vastly prefer either a flat fee (maybe tiered based on parallelism) or something like price per page, makes it much easier to estimate usage.
I have to admit, I'm not really interested in your restrictions on what people are allowed to use in browsers. You are definitely not the arbiter of the one true way, no matter how right you feel about your opinions.
He works a lot, he wants to go out and party and go to fancy restaurants with the rest of his time, and he has most of the things he would use a house for in his office.

If you compare his life to how he would use an SF-size apartment given his lifestyle (not how you, or someone else would live) it is quite possible he's not really losing all that much. He also has no commute between work and sleep, which is a huge quality of life bonus.

http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/power/10-kw-home-sta...

You can get 10kW of power from a Gas generator for $3000 (hooked up to a Propane fuel tank... or to a gas line if you trust those). A 500 gallon propane tank will keep you running virtually indefinitely, and will only cost a few thousand after installation costs.

So you're realistically looking at $5k to $6k for a gas generator solution for a lot of people.

In contrast, Power Wall is $3500 for a paltry 2kW of power... not enough to even run my air conditioning unit let alone the rest of my house. This cost does not include the inverter, the additional batteries that need to be built out, or the electrician who needs to come out and set this all up. After that extra money spent... it is unlikely to run for much longer than 24-hours.

It is clear what the sane, reliable solution is. A gas generator. The Power Wall doesn't come anywhere close to the specs.
They compare it to polymer in the docs - much smaller, for one.
The person you're responding to stated very few opinions (essentially "things will get even worse") and some well-known facts. The tone and style of rhetoric is a little heavy but there is absolutely nothing extreme about any of the statements there. An extremist would be someone who chooses to plug their ears and shout and refuse to acknowledge these simple factual statements about American society/government.

Worth mentioning that Hospira previously manufactured the drug in North Carolina. Blaming Italy and the EU is a little odd when they continue to have manufacturing located in the US that would not have to deal with such regulations.

According to the WSJ, it only generated $6MM in annual sales, which probably is not enough to a large company (even larger as it was acquired by Pfizer) to be associated with the death penalty.

Maybe get a generator + Tesla 10 kWh wall battery? Then you get the best of both worlds. The Tesla will grandfather your solar energy advantage in the evening after the sun goes down, and the generator kicks in when the grid goes down. So your primary use of the grid will be, say, midnight to 6am while you're sleeping.
The military industrial complex certainly has to have something to do with this. Not making enough money on international wars? Ok, let's go sell to domestic police forces.

I would love to hear if anyone here knows for certain if there is a link between companies selling to US military for international war and the companies selling these contraptions to domestic police forces.
