Entirely possible. I'd guess that most of these systems replace mechanical locks wide open to anyone with the right tools and a few hours of lockpicking training. In retrofits it's common for the mechanical lock to still be there as an override, so bumping/picking may still be the weakest link.

Most are probably also deployed next to windows which are vulnerable to rocks, and on doors which wouldn't stand up to a crowbar or boot.

Access control is mostly about deterring casual users and bounding/monitoring/revoking the access of legitimate employees. Systems designed to stand up to teams of security experts are something else entirely.
Calling it a paradox makes it sound as though something difficult to understand is happening. In most cases it is simply necessary to make sure that you are comparing 'like with like', that is, comparing things that are of the same class and that are actually comparable.

Of course t=it is still valuable to be reminded that averages can make it seem that things are of the same class when they are in fact not. So it gets one lonely upvote from me.
Is the government or anyone else trying to develop secure systems? I don't mean stock technology (Intel/Arm + Windows/*nix/etc.) retrofitted or 'locked down', I mean new tech built from the ground up for high security.

Given the exceptionally high value to foreign governents (and other actors) of breaking into US government computers, the latter approach seems like the only potential option. The stock tech just can't be secured effectively enough, IMHO.

All he's saying is that you need to qualify what exactly the other person is arguing before you start arguing against it. It's a way of preventing strawmanning - you want to get the other person's central viewpoint out in the open, naked and unafraid, so that there is no ambiguity when you make your case. I don't usually do it, mostly because it's patronizing if the point is obvious, but I will do it if the person's argument is convoluted.

> someone who found religion worth studying

Like it or not, religion has been a cornerstone of history and civilization for about as long as there has been history or civilization. Secularism is a relatively recent invention, and secularism's influence has only been really felt in the last 50 years or so.

Religion is history, and history is definitely worthwhile to study.
To me, DMV stands for Department of Motor Vehicles.

DelMarVa is the geographic peninsula east of Chesapeake Bay and west of Delaware Bay.

The ring of urban sprawl around the federal capital is "The DC Area". Unfortunately, "DC Metro" is the train system, and "DC Metropolis" is where Superman lives.

The only (well paying) tech jobs in Delaware would probably be working on internal systems for credit card companies in Wilmington. Possibly also registered agent software for CT or CSC, or some other business revolving around corporate registration and reporting.

I can't help thinking "Columbia Metropolis" would be a better name for the urban areas around the District of Columbia. But I don't have the authority to just change the names of things.
I used phabricator at my last job and was really impressed. Now I'm using Gerrit and I'm less impressed (but still getting used to it).

You say clunky, but Phabricator's UI makes Gerrit look like a WAP app.
Cool site.

Which Website builder did you use to make yours?
Not really. The mailman is operating on behalf of the government with specific policies and laws associated with it.

Tor is more like you operating as a volunteer delivery guy who is willing to pick up a locked box anywhere in the city for free and drop it off anywhere else that is requested. You have no idea what's in the box nor who you are picking it up from or dropping it off to.

Well, if you could program VU1 you had as much low level API as anybody else, that's my point.

As for the whole Linux support - I remember Kutaragi pushing the PS2 to become a home computer. Even its devkits (T10000s) were looking like PCs and had a "workstation" mode. PS3's "other OS" seems to be a vestige of this policy.
Is because baby clams have a lot of predators, specially crabs and starfishes, so they mums either nurse it under the shell, or try to spread it for the widest area possible.
The Yahoo numbers posted in the article are a bit misleading because the London game was not available to watch on cable television in the U.S., so you were basically forced to watch it online, which is why Yahoo would pay such a large amount of money (and why their viewership was so high) to broadcast one game.

Twitter, by comparison, is broadcasting the Thursday Night game alongside several other channels. I'd guess that the number of people who actually use this service will be relatively small. On cable tv alone, there are two channels (NFL Network and CBS) that both broadcast the game.
Are you asking for tweets?
Is it really "painting with the same brush" to say the people of NC voted for this? In your Prop 8 example, the people of California voted for that.

I am constantly amazed by the way in which people will try anything to get high. Given the ability to compound pretty much anything with anything you know its going to result in a bunch of these sorts of experiences. I guess its how you A/B test drug compounds when you aren't looking for FDA approval.
The german criminal police (in US: FBI) once called me and insisted on a good talk because of something. They finally visited me sensibly at my workplace, dressed up as customers (promised not to tell my coworkers who they really were). Then they told me there had been terror threats for thr Ukraine coming from my TOR server (they knew about Tor...). Bad thing: the terror threat had been some weeks ago and I had reinstalled the server three days before (without Tor) and all logs/evidences had been destroyed. Luckily, they believed me and left me after I simply gave them all passwords concerning the case.
I have not run a Tor server since then. I support the concept, but it can bring you real trouble.

Here's a tip for Denver real estate that just worked very well for my wife an myself (who are closing on a house this week): Do not use a buyer's agent (get real estate attorney to help you instead), and make your offer 2.5% lower than the asking price. When making the offer just say that since there is no buyer's agent commission to pay out from the funds at closing you are choosing to offer less. Don't worry if the listing agent gets mad at you for doing this since many of them also represent buyers. Use Redfin to get very up-to-date MLS data. Find something close to downtown in Denver proper. Do not believe the FUD about competing bids and way over asking price bids, as those stories are mostly crap perpetuated by agents who seek to gain from twitchy buyers making bad decisions. Good luck people.
Not bad, but even that reads like a bit of an FU from the devs. ("Pig Iron?") The best thing to do is to make it definitely seem like it was a bug introduced by the crack. (Maybe James Bond villains giving their secret projects suggestive code names and telling their entire plan isn't unrealistic?)
One interesting explanation is that people seem to think (maybe rightly) that art and culture are cheapened by too much money. To be authentic, art and culture needs to be nearer to the struggling edges of society.

I was looking for 6 people to stalk locally, this is such a timesaver.
The most likely scenario is that the Police were running a honeypot and tracing every IP that connected to it. Obviously this would pick up a lot of TOR exit nodes. One of the exit nodes is in their jurisdiction so they pay it a visit on the longshot chance that the exit node operator was also a pedophile.

If they knew he was running an exit node it smells a bit like a fishing trip, but since they didn't send the SWAT team in through the windows and hold his computers for 4 years out of spite (the Steve Jackson treatment) I have trouble faulting the cops too badly.
Checking the validity of an argument is like typechecking: It's mostly mechanical and catches a large class of errors.

But there are some it doesn't catch. This is a valid argument:

When you visit an SSL encrypted website a little lock icon appears. It used to be when you visited a site with an RSS feed a little RSS icon would light up. I see no reason why notifications shouldn't be exactly the same. Give some ambient/unobtrusive notification of the capability. Don't force me to stop what I'm doing and make some decision for something completely orthogonal to what I'm currently doing.
This works on my regular iphone 6. It asks to unlock the phone first time you do search twitter. If you unlock it then next time the phone is locked, you can search twitter and it wont ask for unlock. Just search for at - sign yahoo.com and press on the email link on the result and say add to contacts. You can then add a photo. There is a simpler way though, just say "show me my pictures" and you get the photos.
The color, layout, and font sizes are quite fine the way they are. The containers for your paragraphs expand to the full width of the screen, no matter the width, which is awesome!

Everything in the linked article is easy to read on my crummy laptop screen. (Its screen makes seeing too-low-contrast color changes [0] rather difficult. The fact that all of your site is legible is a strong indicator that your contrast and color scheme choices are perfectly adequate ones.)

In short, don't change anything about the layout, unless you are really motivated to do so. You've made good choices!

Yup. It was a turbo. I thought that turbo issues had been resolved in the early 2000s with proper transmission tuning and turbo-on. Apparently audi did a piss poor job of it until the the last 2-3 years (according to other posters).

I'll take a few less horsepower with better responsiveness any day. I'm not trying to beat anyone in a 1/4 mile -- i'd much rather the car be enjoyable and responsive. Half a second can easily mean the difference between getting out of the way of someone coming up on you not paying attention and getting rear ended. Hopefully they got their shit together.

Well, NFL is not exactly popular outside of US. If they were streaming Champions League final, then we'd be talking.
I imagine initially thieves getting scared and dropping the packages, but then quickly realizing that if they run away with the packages they'll still get away with it. If they integrate with DropCam or something, it could be an interesting idea.
And, after that, kill CR LF as a line separator. That's an idea which belongs to the era of mechanical Teletype machines.
The NFL's past behavior has shown that they want to increase their market. Making football games available to everyone is one of the best ways to get international fans.

There are obstacles that prevent, say, a German or a Frenchman from actually getting into American football, just like there are obstacles that prevent an American from becoming a fan of the Bundesliga. Eliminating those obstacles would do wonders for increasing viewership.
What's even more baffling, in many countries even virtual child porn is illegal. Drawings, computer-generated graphics, adult actors pretending to be children, ... everything. Personally, if pedophiles want to jerk off, I'd prefer they used fake child porn instead of actual kids.

Actually, no. You need a SHA-1 second-preimage attack, which is vastly more difficult. However, even if there was one, it would cause git pull to fail, as downloading the objects would likely require terabytes of garbage data.
If people didn't want web notifications, they wouldn't have been explicitly added in to the specs.

This thread is getting ridiculous. I appreciate people don't like notifications but the very few sites that request them are sites like gmail, discord, irccloud etc which the majority of people absolutely do want notifications from.
It's kind of like the Tesla, which people think is amazing. For $90k you could also buy a $60k car and $30k worth of gasoline up-front and tada! you can now refuel it for free or almost free (it takes a little energy to pump the gas out of the underground storage tank and into your car's gas tank).

This article alone turns most Tesla enthusiasts into apologists immediately. Its a revolutionary drive train, no one has done this before, that's why its having issues. Or we can expect Tesla to fix the issues, or whatever.

Sure, but it doesn't change the fact that Tesla is performing awfully in practical long-term tests. IE: apologists, as opposed to enthusiasts.
I can't see any online services ever competing with cable and satellite providers over sport. It would require deep pockets to convert paying customers to a new platform, plus the Internet isn't proprietary enough to physically capture the audience.

I travel to NYC a few times a month and tend to prefer yellow cabs out of habit. But I definitely would not consider them clean when comparing Uber. Maybe it is because of the "black car" lineage of Uber, but the car is generally spotless, not sticky and relatively new. On the other hand, the yellow cabs look outwardly new and clean but on the inside are torn up.
Then just fucking disable them jesus nobody gives a shit. All you're doing is complaining. In case your time is too precious to lookup how (because complaining about meaningless shit on the internet is obviously more important) I've written you a nice guide:

- Click Settings > Show advanced settings.

- In the "Privacy" section, click Content settings.

- In the dialogue that appears, go to "Notifications" and choose the following:

This is the result of people trying to get rich quick by simply having stuff rather than producing and maintaining stuff. I don't know what the answer is. I do think that San Francisco is poorly planned out based on my observations last year when I visited to see if I could live there. There is no mass transit system on the scale of NYC or one that's even trying to be. Everything seems really spread out. I felt like you needed a car to really be able to adequately take advantage of the area. I'm not really a fan of expensive rents and car culture. I also noticed people cheering when Twitter announced layoffs. I didn't leave with the impression the community had adequately benefited from the tech industry being in the area. The people I spoke with felt that the tech industry takes away but doesn't give back to the community.
The story has a dual nature - "fascinating glimpse" and "distasteful action".

Moreover, if an equivalent sort of thing happened via computer - say, a voyeur silently using a million webcams for a similar purpose, it seems like it would lose the particularity of such a "glimpse" and it's nature as a crime would especially visible.
Well, he's explaining "weak classifiers". I think you are reading too much into things.
> This super-mouse has probably evolved its resistance to the viper bite because it is a key component of the snake's diet.

How does that work exactly?

Surely to evolve, you need to procreate, and then through mutations, we get some kind of increased defence.

In order to evolve some kind of anti-venom, presumably you need to get bitten, which I assume kills the mouse, and as everyone knows - dead mice don't procreate.

Is it maybe from a partial bite?

If you're so easily annoyed you should really be surfing with JavaScript off. The reality is that sites can do any number of things to annoy you because you are giving them permission to execute code on your machine. If you don't trust them with this permission then don't give it to them.
Very interesting. I actually built a "thumb drive inspector" out of one of the ST Micro butterfly boards, basically its USB OTG port can act as a host and look at the contents of a file, and if it turns out to be a suicide drive or a drive waiting to exploit you can see that too (at the risk of losing your $19 board.

From a security perspective I would expect places with high security requirements would leave drives around on purpose to find people unable to resist the temptation.

Streaming TV is only getting better.

I only watch TV for basketball, and when the grey-market streaming service I was using for NBA games got shut down, I wanted to at least be able to see the nationally televised (ESPN and TNT) games without cable.

I tried Sling for a month and it had issues, but for the past few weeks I've been using Playstation Vue it has been practically flawless. I'm on a 25/3 Time Warner connection running at least half a dozen connected devices during peak usage times, and I haven't seen a hiccup or quality drop once. The NCAA championship game last night was without buffering and looked great on my 4K TV (not in 4K, but the quality never changed to the point where I noticed any drop in clarity). It has some DVR functions depending on the program and channel as well.
SJW is a pejorative, plain and simple. It means "shut up and stay in your place". In this particular case, the post I was replying to[0] was referring to a post[1] that I'm pretty sure was referring to racism against white people. Take that as you will.
