I'm assuming when they boot up (their copy of) the hard drive, it prompts for a passphrase, and if you type an incorrect one it'll tell that it's incorrect (as opposed to simply outputting garbage). That's the most common case anyway.

If that's the case, and it likely is, then that's pretty concrete proof that there IS something to decrypt.

edit: Actually, the article says that the hard drive was encrypt with Apple's FireVault, so there you go.
And there is plenty of room to build up. There is a lot of low density housing that could be replaced with nice highrise buildings.

We need greenbelt, even the crap that PEOPLE don't like, wildlife does, especially on the stuff that dog walkers avoid. It's full of rabbits, badgers, invertebrates etc.
Great find, thanks :) - couldn't find any good action shots when I was searching, and nothing that showed off that unusual outline (that I remembered from the Mercedes my family had when I was a boy).
There's nothing about TailsOS that could arouse suspicion if there's nothing persistent on it that could arouse suspicion, or draw more attention to you. TailsOS is strictly a utility like a wrench or a screwdriver. Providing you exit TailsOS properly and watch the screen as it's wiping the memory to ensure it has infact wiped. TailsOS can prove to be an innocuous O.S after you unload it from memory. They might ask questions, but they have nothing on you.

Bringing a Windows OS is stupid as Windows doesn't clean up properly after shutting down and leaves a forensic footprint which is difficult to cleanup unless you use something like Bleachbit[1] or CCleaner after using Windows. You typically want to offload cleaning up to the O.S level and avoid using such tools such as CCLeaner in the first place (Keep in mind, since this is Windows, there are issues with free space on the drive that leave deleted files remaining on the hard-disk, even after explicitly stating they should be deleted).

With TailsOS, In other words, you can browse freely and with peace of mind that you won't leave a forensic footprint behind, giving you an upper-hand over other passengers who have to self-censor their browsing for fear of scrutiny at a later date from border officers.

Hm... when checking the App Store for an old version of Google Photos (962194608 / 2.6.0), it says it isn't live. Is this intentional behavior or a limit of the iTunes API?
I found this comment by educar from HN a few days ago very interesting and true:

> If you still think of the world as divided into good and evil, then I have to break it to you that you have been played. Brainwashed by years and years of media programming.

> One man's terrorist is another man's hero. The U.S routinely bombs other sovereign countries and this is show cased as a "hero" activity. If the bombed people retaliate, they are terrorists. The truth is not black/white. Same way U.S data surveillance is OK but same thing done by China is seen as backward regime.

I guess you could also do a factory reset on an existing phone and set it up once you are through immigration.
Doesn't mean it was illegal.

Protecting ones privacy and data is not illegal and is no cause for suspicion. Just because they detected freenet or even tor that wouldn't be enough for a warrant.

I wonder what evidence they did have for that warrentbin the first place.
I'm pretty sure that even at their slowest, syscalls aren't going to match IO overhead. It's not like the mkfile is CPU bound.
Not to detract from your point but you're referring to the Schengen Zone specifically. There are EU countries opted out (UK) and non-EU countries participating (e.g. Switzerland, Norway and Iceland).
ITT: Programmers / Sysadmins who are in an industry ideally suited for remote work.

Other industries are not so suited to this.
Seems a bit harsh to be detained for 16 months because a judge thinks you're lying.
first of all stop using FB for communication
Much less than you'd think if you are willing to go with 6TB only. The 128GB modules are awfully expensive but the other day I saw 64GB modules at $600 https://memory.net/product/s26361-f3843-e618-fujitsu-1x-64gb... here. So that's ~39K for 6TB of RAM. The relevant Supermicro server (4048B-TR4FT) with four E7 CPUs is ~14K http://www.thinkmate.com/system/superserver-4048b-tr4ft comes with 32 4GB modules which is a waste but oh well, it's a very small loss compared what it would cost to buy 6TB at a server seller like this. So you are looking ~53K for the server, CPU, 6TB RAM, you will need a little storage as well, so perhaps ~60K for a 6TB 4U server. In closing, let me remind you that a mere two decades ago, Microsoft launched the Terraserver which was a demonstration of a server with a terabyte of storage and it was very big news. Now we are here with a machine at the price of an ordinary F-150 truck or so which can hold the 5TB uncompressed data of the Terraserver in RAM.
The whole thing is kind of odd. Normally I'd want to leave filling the file to filesystem...
I think the idea of 16 months for contempt is legally ridiculous.
However, they have some evidence. I presume their de-construction of freenet will have given them some insight.
The technical issue that concerns me, and I'm not sure if they have addressed, is how freenet stores data and whether the material they allege is his or a 3rd party's.
Last time I looked into freenet it was doing the equivalent of storing chunks of other people's data, encrypted of course, on your machine. Like being a torrent server and storing some of the actual data the torrents refer to. A peer to peer data network, not just a reference library. Yes that sounds crazy, but that was the state a few years ago. No wonder it ran like treacle.
Love the government pork being championed by a city who, increasingly, has to import a large portion of its workforce.
The Economist famously doesn't use bylines:

Just to be clear, you're not intending to imply that institutions shouldn't be held to certain implicitly moral standards, are you?
Of course if I hadn't mentioned how well his previous business did, somebody would have suggested the person knew nothing about business.

And since you missed it, let me be clear: he didn't say profit doesn't matter. He said profit wasn't the point. His previous business was quite profitable, but that's not why he did it.
> As you note, bankers and homeowners decided to exploit socialized losses and privatized gains in order to become wealthier at the expense of everyone else. Let them reap what they've sown.

The problem is it isn't current homeowners. Current homeowners are the ones who have paid twice as much for their home as it ought to be worth because there was no other option.

And if you just let nominal housing prices fall, the banks get to keep their unearned gains. The homeowners still owe them the full mortgage amount.

It also doesn't work, because people won't be willing (or able) to sell a house for less than what they owe on the mortgage, so the property becomes unsellable, which keeps it off the market and keeps prices higher longer. Or we get a huge number of defaults and relive the housing crisis, and then the banks keep the foreclosed homes off the market as they did last time.

> Yes. So homeowners and banks have been exploiting renters like myself. Because "the government" is at fault, you'd like the government to continue exploiting renters like myself in order to prevent the homeowners from suffering a loss.

How does it continue to exploit you? Are renters creditors?

You are being exploited the same as homeowners because high housing prices result in high rents. Reducing real housing prices will reduce real rents to your benefit. Reducing nominal housing prices is politically and economically intractable, so the alternative to inflation is that you continue to pay real high rents.

> While the takings clause might apply to downzonings, since downzongings restrict property rights you previously held, they definitively do not apply to upzonings. Your property rights simply do not include the right to prevent others from competing economically.

And yet from a practical perspective the result is the same; the property value has gone down (and the mortgage debt hasn't). Which makes causing that to happen politically infeasible, leading to our current predicament.

> I'm going to speculate that you hold a leveraged long position on real estate, and you want the government to protect your investment?

I want real housing costs to come down. Do you have a better idea, that won't be defeated politically by existing homeowners?
No, you aren't missing anything. The Marissa Meyers of the world are the ones missing the point entirely. And like Gatsby, it usually ends in disaster.
This is a sheer genius idea. The value add would be greater if after getting the idea asked others in the industry if it was also a problem for them. Also ask them if they have the purchase authorization to actually acquire the solution if it was created for them.
If it rains at SFO or there is fog they have to close 2 of the 4 runways and now you got massive delays. I've had a flight delayed from 8pm to 1:30am last year. Having lots of flights going the same way doesn't help, if the flights cannot take off.
I'm not a lawyer, but doesn't he also have the option to comply the order to decrypt, and then ask that the evidence should be supressed because the order contradicted the 5th amendment? That would provide a separate route for the constitutional challenge which would not require him to be in prison in the meantime. (Well, presumably he would be in prison for a child pornography conviction instead, so maybe it's equivalent.)
Not only do you need to show up, but you need to show up at certain times. It would be a mess if doctors or judges just came in when they felt like it. Though a counter point I can see lawyers having flexible schedules, except for court appearances. I think most jobs will require some time being in the location, it is just about if you can change what those hours are.
But just from the list you mentioned and the ones I was thinking of, are the jobs that cannot be flexible more male dominated?
Misleading border guards with statements and behaviour like that is also a felony.
Even high end devices often have batteries issues. Battery tech is just not that great.

Usually they arrive at the one year date though.

Otherwise, you should be able to track the culprit with the battery historian (unless it is hiding behind play services ..)
To clarify: FileVault on 10.6 and earlier; current FileVault is FDE.
I think this argument would be more compelling if instead, you pointed to the fact that they cannot prove that the hard drive contains anything at all. The problem of deciding whether or not the hard drive is encrypted is equivalent to decrypting the hard drive. It's like the police showing up with a warrant to enter a house that they cannot prove exists, or that I am the owner, and then holding me in contempt for failing to open it.

What if your hard drive was encrypted maliciously and then taken into evidence? Is it even possible to prove that this isn't the case?
Ha! Cynical!

Personally I think raising taxes on second homes, rentals, etc would free up a lot of housing to purchase. Do we want to do that? Are people happy renting and not buying? I'm not sure.
Your manners need work.

The article you quote is from a month before the final version of the bill was even prepared (H.R. 3590), let alone submitted for vote.

Bills in progress mean nothing, especially to that Democrat leadership, who often used the gut-and-amend procedure to completely redo legislation on the fly, avoiding rules regarding which committee(s) a bill must traverse.
If you're home, you have to let them in. If not, they are allowed to break in.
The education is paid for, so the "others" who are teaching are earning money, it's not wasted effort.

Knowledge itself doesn't contain any inherent value, it's free if you want to learn it all yourself without depriving anyone else of it. What you're paying for is the academic environment, resources and tutoring of a person. That's a business exchange like any other and everyone is free to spend their money on that, whether they do anything with the results or not.
What if you're a lawyer? Isn't it possible - even likely - that you'd have confidential client communications in your phone?
Good tips, but I'd add one more requirement: the group who are interested in what you're writing about should be a group with money to spend.

Advertisers generally have a lot less interest placing ads with audiences who will never pay them.

There are certain niches where you can passionately write about stuff, amass a large audience, and discover that audience is very poorly monetisable. Best to avoid that if you're looking for income.
>The supreme court has ruled that the second amendment protects an individual's right to own guns and that right cannot be removed by states.

That's what we discussed. Given what the constitution says, that ruling is BS.

The law and supreme courts are politics --not some clean, divine, body that comes with only just rulings.

"Liberty and justice for all", for example, if I'm not mistaken, was in there from the beginning, but the courts could not give a rats ass for slavery, segregation, etc, until they were forced to by popular protests.

So, that 2/3 of the congress is not much consolation either.
Do humans have a moral duty to stop procreating?
High speed trains are much better than flights for small commutes, after the expenses are payed, it will be cheaper, it's easier to get on a train than wait hours for flights to take off.
High speed rails are the future; flights are the past. Why would you not want to see this work out? Flying is quite annoying because it has constant delays, TSA, and hours of waiting in between.
Sure lets critique it, but lets not blame Trump for something he inherited.
> Mathematics need not be taught as an abstraction, it can be approached as an embodied practice, like learning a musical instrument.

Indeed, teaching mathematics without thinking of it as an embodied practice is how you end up with terrible math courses.

You need the intuition.

You need to know the motivation (usually applications in physics/chemistry/CS/business in lower-level mathematics, but even highly abstract mathematics without any known immediate applications usually has a motivation.)

And of course, you also need the abstraction and formality and rigor. The certitude of proof is, after all, the raison d'etre of modern mathematics!

> By thinking about mathematics as performance, we liberate it from the straightjacket of abstraction into which it has been too narrowly confined.

We can also think about this the other way around. By thinking about mathematical objects formally, we free ourselves from the straight-jacket of uncertainty into which the exclusively performative approach inevitably binds us. The advent of formal systems and the development of mathematical theories that grew too hairy for purely intuitive reasoning coincided for a reason.

The most significant and beautiful pieces of mathematics -- and many of the examples in the article -- were discovered and fully understood precisely because we hone our intuition with the rigor of mathematical abstraction.

The blog post linked below comes to mind.

I wish github would add an option for a case sensitive search. Tired of getting back ThisThing when I specifically want thisthing (lower case).

Also, the search documentation is spread out and seems to be missing guidance on features that are crucial. For example, AND works as you would expect (like: hello AND world), but it isn't mentioned anywhere.
> Invites developers to implement RSA-ECB

Huh?
Subscribed, not sure how useful this is going to be for me, but will send a few bucks your way nonetheless.
The supreme court also ruled that child labor laws were unconstitutional, that collective bargaining was illegal, and that runaway slaves should always be returned to their original owners wherever they were found. Precedent changes, and an activist ruling like Heller that is more political than judicial in its justification is relatively easy to reverse. No need for a constitutional amendment for the first 13 words of the 2nd amendment to no longer be written in invisible ink, just a good case and poof it becomes a collective right the same as it was for the first 175 years or so of US history.
I believe it's supposed to be only names you've gone under, calling yourself horsemaster88 on youtube wouldn't be included, but calling yourself Jerry Fink, lord of horses would be included. With the new laws going into place for giving up social media names I wouldn't be surprised if online pseudonyms will be included in the future though.
Using mkfile compiled for Linux on a tmpfs gets me 1550 MiB/s.
>because as Heller held, the first part of that sentence is the prefatory clause which doesn't limit or expand the scope of the actual, operative clause

Which is exactly the inverse of what it should be: the spirit of the law being above and adjusting the "operative" part.
This article talks about how critical the auto suppliers was to Tesla's formation: http://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-the-origin-story-2014-1...

Though, given Tesla is still one of the only new auto makers around, it still is imensly hard to compete against the established companies.

I totally agree. I think any sector that you CAN do this you should. If not for the equality then for the increase in productivity. At least from anecdotal evidence I see people more productive when they can do things like sleep in or take time off just because they feel like it that day. Making up the hours later.
And to the second part, that is just trying to increase efficiency. But with technology, there is little reason meetings need to be in person. At least the majority of them, because there are some types of meetings that do greatly benefit from being in person.
Nothing is more ironic than the Beastie Boys song Fight for Your Right...

Nope that's just bad copy/UI on my part. Technically that version is not live, 2.9.0 is live, and you can't download 2.6.0 so I'm saying "not live". But in reality the UI should be clear that it's an old version.
Could it just come from our particular choice of words?

An encryption key sounds closer to a safe key than to a combination lock. A small broken analogy later, the judge rules that encryptions keys are keys, and the defendant may be compelled to provide them.

Just because we called it a a "key", instead of the more accurate "combination", or "code".

> the purpose of the New York Times is to inform readers about the things that matter to them and to the world.

Why isn't the purpose of the New York Times to mis-inform and trick its readers into blindly accepting horrific policies such as the US Invasion of Iraq in 2003? [1]

A corporation's means and purpose are one in the same: profit.

I love reading vague, romanticized mischaracterisations of corporations that enables the writer to not need to reconcile their politics with their current living scenarios. But this is a totally inadequate explanation for the existence and purpose of corporations today.

Companies exist to derive profit for their investors, primarily by increasing the value of their common stock and by dividends. Whatever other impact is made by a company's operations in the marketplace is an externality.

Sometimes an externality is positive, sometimes it is negative. The New York Times exists to derive profit for its investors, and it does this by, yes, making a product that informs its readers. But they also do it by nuzzling up next to evil, moneyed interests - making deals with the devil and serving significant positions in helping to roll out horrible public and international policies.

Perhaps journalism is necessary for a healthy society, but could you honestly accuse NYT of being the purveyors of such an ideal? NYT is extraordinarily guilty of nefarious, trixy, and immoral activity compared with its competition, in fact. The goal of pure profit has certainly made the NYT a strong purveyor of tabloid-esque material, clickbaity headlines, and outrageous, unfounded articles.

To change this, the American public needs to elevate its own desire for quality journalism to the extent that it becomes more valuable to pursue that goal, than to pursue clicks, outrage, and lowest-common-denominator dreck like the NYT and all other corporate news entities do today. That would be quite a tall order for a society driven to mass mental illness by their weak, thoughtless acceptance of social media into their every waking moment.

"aren't stupid" .. agreed to some extent. But I don't buy the no talent outside the bay area theory. Wonder if something else is afoot.

I'll give you an anecdote .. Google has an engineering office in Waterloo and Amazon has one in Toronto. Both have quite a few former expats who wanted to be closer to their Canadian families. There is demand.
I am frequently traveling between Portland and Seattle. I've tried airplane, bus and train. The train is the slowest of the three. However, The Lyft ride from SeaTac to downtown Seattle costs more than the train ride. The train is also so much more comfortable. Unless I am under time pressure I take the train. The bus frequently smells like porter potty which eliminated that cheaper and faster option. Of course the LA-SF distance is about twice as far, but it's also not supposed to be a shitty Amtrak train that has to constantly yield to cargo trains. I am super concerned about the stops in irrlevant cities though.
