If you go down that route, convincing the public to use and standardizing backdoored and broken cryptography would also count as social engineering.

The communications are decrypted.

This is done through a combination of backdoored cryptography, state of the art cryptanalysis, and mass social engineering (propaganda).

Namely, you're not proposing something that's mutually exclusive to decryption of data.

I think it is completely appalling how russian majority treats minorities, I'm not even talking about political parties or freedom of speech. Homosexuals and smaller ethnicities there are having hard time. A friend of mine lived in Russia, being half black - the constant racism from general populace forced him to leave. I like russian people but not russian society. Some psychologists say that societies have collective consciousness, whatever that is, in the case of Russia it has many scars and it just can't be pretty, that's probably one of the reasons russians are attached to their literary cultural identity. I give them that, their literature is great, although it's problematic that so many russians still think that their culture is somehow superior to others.

Zcash's anonymous transactions are much more expensive CPU-wise to verify and aren't pruneable, and the cryptography behind it has been much less reviewed (Bitcoin operates on a bunch of very boring standard already established and long-trusted algorithms in comparison!), so I'd be surprised if an established project like Bitcoin adopted them before they were proven in practice. There's a lot of money tied up in Bitcoin, so the project is going to be pretty conservative in how it chooses to change.

I'm very interested to see your code or an explanation of how you did that in utorrent.

I can add torrents from the command line but I couldn't work out how to put them in a desired category or manually set download locations, etc.

How did you do it?
I think it's a good attitude to have. :)

I was just super hesitant here because we didn't know the complete story and everyone else seemed to be piling on the author.
Does anyone know:

(A) the potential lifespan of these satellites are?

(B) Why has this not been done to date? I assume SpaceX expects that it'll be relatively affordable since they can reuse rockets.

(C) Will this impact the launch capabilities of future rockets (4500 satellites are a lot)? My assumption is that the low earth orbit will likely aid in destroying those satellites as opposed to leaving them up there at end-of-life

What are some of those companies? I'd be curious to read about that. Because it doesn't sound like the state dept. has any legal basis here, just American specialism.

At any rate, US is not the bastion of freedom that Russia's actions should be compared to. Especially so when it involves three-letter agencies.

To clarify the distinction I'm trying to make - yes, US doing some shady shit, mostly trying to keep it in secret. Russia is explicitly legalizing such shady shit. And doing even shadier shit in secret.

I work for a company that supports a lot of the satellites launched with PSLV. Most are in high inclination polar orbits.
Not only is the PSLV reliable, but it is also very precise in delivery.
Driving, yes absolutely, because you're constantly about 6 feet away from hitting something.

For flying, touch screens are a great idea, since you have a lot of controls, and attention to where exactly you're going is less critical, since you're usually >1000 ft from the nearest solid object. Also, aircraft usually have autopilot (and often a copilot).

I guess with Tesla's autopilot, it might make the touch screen a bit more usable? (at least while driving on a highway I guess).
Given recent news about mass surveillance, it's important to note that Pixel's security model does not and can not seek to protect your data for use for private messaging, conversation with attorneys, for journalists, or to organize for political reasons.

It's funny, I'm this exact same boat. My pixel died a little after two week (which is the requirement to get a return). I filled out their warranty claim thing, and >48 hours finally got a response, which is a trouble shooting guide. I replied that I tried all that stuff, and had to wait another 2 days for another response (asking for information I already gave).

I'm extremely disappointed. I thought with their whole advertising of "24 hour support" they identified customer support as a weakness of theirs, and are trying to remedy it. Nope.

I don't think it's hard to imagine why the gestural interface survives in the movies. It's very visual. The main actor is moving and full of action and may even be literally jumping around. It's as cinematic as the Hollywood OS representation of hacking is.

Meanwhile, out here in the real world, I'm a real computer programmer and my real interface is even more boring looking than a standard Windows install. Nobody's going to be mining my UI for Hollywood ideas anytime soon, despite the fact that I, on occasion, actually hack.

It's the same reason cars explode when they go over cliffs, bullets spark when they hit things, and all those other tropes.

"Once fully optimized through the Final Deployment, the system will be able to provide high bandwidth (up to 1Gbps per user), low-latency broadband services for consumers and businesses in the US and globally,” SpaceX told the FCC. “Subject to additional development work, SpaceX plans to design and manufacture its own satellites, gateway earth stations, and user terminals.” Home Internet customers would receive a "low-profile user terminal that is easy to mount and operate on walls or roofs."

I guess the numbers depend on what "final deployment" means. Presumably more satellites with higher bandwidth.

If there are users, then it is useful. Because the question implies the product is already under development, it might be advantageous to present the work effort to people. That advantage may lie in showing people something concrete rather than relying on their imaginations as a source of feedback.

The reason I believe it is advantageous is because what I imagine a video debate site to be is probably not how you envision it...and I don't have a positive opinion of what I imagine.
(1) Tesla is aiming for 1 million cars in 2020. At an average price of $45,000/car ($42k for Model 3/Y but higher for Model S/X) that would be $45 billion a year in revenue. And they would still likely be growing fast at that point, with expansion in Europe and Asia.

(2) Current gross margin is 25%, but is trending up as they scale Model X. Model S/X gross margin is likely going to be 30% within a year. Tesla is targeting a gross margin of 25% on Model 3. This gross margin is excluding ZEV credits.

Tesla will soon use up the federal tax incentive ($7500 going to buyer) as they pass their 200,000th car sold in the U.S. But they still will have state and ZEV incentives that aren't depending on the federal government. There is risk with the new administration possibly delaying Tesla's autonomous driving plans.

(4) For cash flow analysis, look at Tesla's most recent Q3 financials. It was a breakthrough quarter, as they are selling 25k cars/quarter (100k cars/year run rate). Financials show that S/X gross profit now covers all operating expenses. And when you deduct depreciation expenses and stock-based compensation, Tesla is actually cash flow positive by a large amount (over $400M just last quarter). They used some of that cash for capex, but still have over $100M left over. Tesla's finances have turned a corner, and they look very positive. For Solarcity, they had good Q3 earnings as well. Looks like Solarcity will not impact cash flow for Tesla in Q4 as Solarcity look to be cash flow positive in Q4. Next year, Solarcity's cash flow is projected to be neutral.
Configuration items like current theme or current default font are things, that all applications are interested in. If they want to have look and feel like the rest of the desktop, that is.
The difference is, when real scientists say they know, they will tell you p-values and usually they can reliably predict things. And when they don't know something, they usually say so.

I was wondering about the price too. If the bandwidth is actually going to be as limited as the numbers in this article imply then it'll probably be out of reach for most of the people who need it.
I saw on another hn post about this that the satellites will have a 5 year lifespan, but will be decommissioned at the 1-2 year mark to insure they can be deorbited safely

Apple's devices are hugely popular among higher-income individuals, especially in the United States. Benedict Evans has written that there are 650 million iOS devices in active use globally. According to App Annie, roughly 2/3 of mobile application revenues are through the App Store. The other 1/3 is Google Play.

Considering how much consumers have invested in the Apple ecosystem across multiple devices, it's not reasonable to expect that consumers will switch to Android. Apple's customers are locked in.

The question is whether it's OK for Apple to prevent competition within iOS.
This is why the US should not just be "about equal". We can afford to improve the situation, not just maintain the status quo. Instead, we often find ourselves sitting in judgement of developing countries doing the same things we did to develop.

The plurality winner was the none of the above candidate, but the non-participants by and large think their none choice puts them outside politics, even though there is no such actual thing as no president. There will be one, it's a matter of which one, and not choosing one does have the same effect as choosing one.

And Americans vote in even fewer numbers for the non-presidential candidates. So it'd be almost the fringe that would be voting for cabinet members, were that possible.

It's been said many times in this thread, but what.cd was so much more than a torrent tracker for piracy. It had one of the largest collections of music that was literally impossible to find anywhere else, and an amazing community of music lovers behind it. The chatrooms and forums alone were a rare community to find online, and the collection itself was unparalleled.

A) The technical attachment lists the lifespan as 5 to 7 years

B) It's a triple play of radically reduced launch costs, rapidly dropping space hardware costs thanks to growth in the market, and improving RF tech to greatly increase the bandwidth such a constellation can provide. Ubiquitous connectivity is a great example of a technology that's going to happen because of the high level industry trends. The interesting question is whether it will be a SpaceX constellation, OneWeb constellation, or an atmospheric solution like Google's Loon or Facebook's Aquila.

C) 4500 satellites is more than we currently have in LEO total. However, LEO is low enough that atmospheric drag deorbits idle satellites relatively quickly. SpaceX's constellation is designed to deorbit on its own after their 7 year life.
Will this high number of low-altitude satellites cause a tracking and collision nightmare for the world's space agencies? Sorry, I recently finished "Seveneves" and I have space debris anxiety right now.
