Also, while free speech means the government (qua the police) shouldn't interfere with any group's liberty to express its ideas outside of certain very narrow contexts, members of the public are under no obligation to give people with whom they disagree a respectful hearing. Nazis aren't exactly known for becoming reasonable cooperators if their enemies would only sit down and have a cup of coffee together, are they? I'm having a hard timy buying into you considering that the self-declared Nazis may be the hapless victims here.

A really hard time. "Oh, I was just doing my Nazi thing, calling for the extermination of all those lesser races and social groups we disapprove of, when what should happen but some mean old anarchist got all up in my face and telling me how awful I am! I was just shaking in my jackboots so I had to stab him with this knife I just happened to bring with me." Won't someone please think of the poor, helpless Nazis?

> If you let people build in the city then they can cycle to work.

You can already build in the city. In fact, New Labour put in subsidies and incentives to build multi-storey houses, which are probably still in place. So why don't developers just go and replace low-rise with high-rise? Because nobody really wants to live in flats in England if they can avoid it. It's a cultural thing and it has nothing to do with land scarcity, it's probably a result of the failed '70s projects mixed with the hardcore individualism that emerged since then. This drives down prices of flats to the point where it's not appealing for developers to build new ones (except in the immediate vicinity of SW1 or other areas that are attractive to singles and childless couples, who can be persuaded to fit into tin boxes). What sells is low-rise suburban, for which they are running out of space; hence the push for greenfield liberalisation. Everything else is divide-et-impera rhetoric, boomers vs impoverished etc etc.

> Or imagine how the people who enforce these new regulations can exploit this.

I can imagine that perfectly: When Trump was asked about global warming he mentioned "these e-mails." "These" e-mails are the internal communication of the climate researches working at the UK University.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climatic_Research_Unit_email_c...

Now, the e-mails didn't contain anything problematic, but were still used against climate researches by the "deniers" who mischaracterised and took the phrases out of the context. Details are in the Wikipedia article above.

Now this NASA guy was "enrolled in Global Entry" meaning the border searchers already knew he works for NASA.

NASA does climate science.

And there's real chance that the searchers have copied the whole content of his phone.

And it's imaginable that again something somewhere can be used as a big media campaign based on something taken out of the context, because it already happened once.

With Trump really mentioning "these e-mails" I can imagine him using such a campaign as a pretext for even more unprecedented measures against climate scientists.

I can't say if this specific case is part of something like that, only that I can imagine something like that.

No, it's time to stop trying to cram everyone into the same primary cities. It's time for secondary cities to shine.

We all know the benefits of broadband. There's no reason to keep trying to cram into primary cities.

Use a password manager. Use long random passwords for every site.

Set your phone PIN to something 20 chars and random and text it to your friend. Write your friend's number on a slip of paper but add 1 to each non-area-code digit.

Disable biometrics. Power off phone.

You now no longer have the ability to provide the information they seek at the border.

Call your friend when you get through (from someone else's phone) and change your PIN back.
Given standard gauge trains transverse plenty of bridges which frequently have high-winds, that seems… dubious.
The temporary border controls are not there to physically stop people from entering, but to dissuade them from trying to go to Norway at all in the first place. That's the big effect, and it is of course intentional.

I kinda get why LKML pushes away drive by contributions - if the quality of the patch is low it can cause problems for maintainers and subsystem maintainers.

Also before any crises, when I was taking the cheap buses between copenhagen and hamburg, there was usually passports controls on entering Denmark. The police officers would be very lax with european citizens, it felt like though.
Oh, most new track is designed for operation speeds far beyond what's commercially expected: it's very cheap to do (the primary requirement, after all, is about curve radius, which just affects your choice of route). The signalling, the overhead line equipment, the rolling-stock… all of that is all designed for the initial operational speed, because that does become expensive (or non-existent) if you want to push the speed up.
Thank you. That pretty much sums up what I was getting at. I understand the need for violence when one man attacks me or my family. And I understand the need for violence when one man attacks any human around me.

These people break the Golden Rule and remove themselves from its binding contract of being treated equally. BUT, they still deserve to be treated fairly.

Sometimes, even you can get them to see the error of their ways, and use their past to create a better future for others, and all without violence. But asking someone to give you a variable to a mathematical algorithm that he owns is absolute horse shit.
All the people suggesting a "duress mode" would solve this issue need to wake up.

For as long as it's not illegal to force people to open up their phones at the border, you are not under duress. In fact, the government could even warp the situation to where you'd be commiting perjury by showing a fake screen.

Unfortunately, we can't solve this problem through technology: we need to convert the broader public and fight to make the representatives we elect work for the people.
If protesting these things worked, we'd never have border searches in the first place. Nobody wants to be searched.

Ultimately most people just simply do not place any value on their privacy.
Well, the previous comment I was replying to had a caveat that was this applies to jobs that "weren't customer facing".

If you take that away, most of the jobs that need you to be at a certain place and certain time require a certain amount of physical labor.

At the risk of igniting a gender war (which I have accused of on this board), men on average are stronger than women are. If you're talking about jobs with a large physical component, men generally gravitate to/are more effective at those jobs.

His crime is disobeying a court order, which is a crime that you can go to jail for. Just like if you had the key to a safe, and the court orders you to open the safe, you would go to jail if you refuse to do so.

Yeah but isn't insane how politics and government is just a media managed propoganda battle?

These people running our entire society have absolutely no scientific methodology for determining their policies. It's all just propaganda and some politician on a commercial making a bunch of promises.

It's so insane to me.

I wouldn't go to a doctor who had really good commercials, I would want to see their success results,and I want to know and what is going on with my treatment at all times, and see how successful the treatment is, etc.etc..

>They couldn't compel Apple write software to decrypt a phone.

no, they didn't compel apple
First, let me point you to where such tolerance has been effective at advancing agendas (note that in neither case do I agree with or support the agendas).

My preferred concrete example, simply because of how staggeringly effective tolerating hypocrisy was at getting a resoundingly unpopular law to become the law of the land is American Prohibition. During the lead-up to prohibition in the United States one of the most successful lobbyists was a man named Wayne Wheeler of the Anti-Saloon League. He would work with or endorse any candidate that supported a dry agenda, and he'd work to replace those that didn't with those that did. This included candidates who were, themselves, barely-functional alcoholics. They would drink while meeting with him (he himself was truly a teetotaler as far as we know) while discussing the very legislation that would make acquiring alcohol illegal. He took it all in stride as long as they voted the right way. Despite the perceived success of the wets in attaching a 7-year limit on time-to-ratification for the 18th amendment, it passed the required number of state houses in less than two years.

For a more modern example I direct you to Republican's willingness to re-elect "family values" candidates who support and push through anti-LGBTQ legislation but who have themselves been caught in flagrante delicto. I find such laws reprehensible, but I cannot deny the effectiveness of the right in passing them, in part due to a willingness to tolerate effective but hypocritical legislators.

In terms of where I believe a failure to tolerate hypocrisy has resulted in net loses for progressive causes, I'd point to politicians with strongly progressive voting histories are pilloried and their political careers are summarily executed because they turn out to be corrupt, sexist, racist, homophobic, etc. If their voting history and the legacy they're leaving behind is a progressive one (and stays that way), who cares if they're only pursuing it because they know it will get them re-elected? Unless you can find a candidate who will produce a better net effect, stick with the flawed bigot.

Concretely, take Hillary Clinton after the primaries[0]. I saw it argued that she was a hypocrite for taking millions in speaking fees from big banks while talking about protecting the little guy. She may well be a hypocrite (and her banking voting history isn't great), but the platform she was running on and much of the rest of her voting history are solidly progressive. The number of votes lost due to perceived hypocrisy probably wouldn't have swayed that contest, but more broadly I see it in the same category of being idealistic to a fault.
IANAL, but it would fail to meet the basic criteria, as the communication was not for the purpose of securing legal advice and, the prosecution would argue, the communication was made for the purpose of committing a crime.

> wiping/selling it on Craigslist after you return assuming it's been compromised.

Seems like if you assume a phone is compromised, it would be immoral to sell it to someone else without full disclosure of your concerns.
A lot of this also applies to politics within companies specifically large corporations. I begrudge thinking about politics at work but it's become rampant in white collar work environments. As a person who just loves getting thing finished I can deal with compromise but I can't deal with the negative politics of evading and misdirection that comes with most large enterprise projects these days. From shady sales to the lack of transparency when things don't go perfectly to finger pointing, it all becomes soul crushing for people who love to build things.

I have to imagine this is what it feels like to be a great politician in US government at this very moment in history.
Let's say I found a bug in some software I use, and tweaked a few lines to fix it. Now what do I do?

(1) Mail a diff to the author.

(2) Get an account on some random website, "fork" the code, make the tweak again, and "submit a pull request."

I'll choose (1) every time, and will probably just shrug and move on if I'm forced to do (2). I've made a few throwaway GitHub accounts when I cared enough, but I usually don't bother.

Bogus defense IMHO. Acquiring the ability to query a database is enough to constitute surveillance. I wonder if my land lord could use the same logic to legally record me in the shower.

We have to understand that, much like it's a military's responsibility (and desire) to go to war, it is the goal of spy agencies to gather all the intelligence it possible can. In both cases it is up to law making bodies comprised of "the people" to check these agencies' ambitions.

I know python keeps some packages outside the standard library as once it's in there development slows down and the package needs to be worked on more often.

Did any discussion on this possibility come up as I can see cryptography requiring a quicker update cycle when bugs are found then a schedualed language release can give.
Agreed. It has many problems but it's still one of the only games in town.

There's a burden of proof here the court needs to meet before holding the defendant in contempt.

For starters, it's reasonable to assume the defendant owns the hard drives in question if they're in their possession, irregardless of their testimony otherwise.

Given that piece of information:

1: The court has to prove the disks are actually encrypted. It is not merely enough for the cops to pick up the disks, see some garbled data, and determine it's encrypted. Now if you're using a file level encryption protocol that leaves enough un-encrypted stuff on disk that you can identify the filesystem and the file encryption, then you've met the requirement. If you are using full disk encryption, especially something designed to hide the data and filesystem from anything but a forensics package and even a forensics package see's garble, then there's effectively no way to tell the disk is actually encrypted or with what.

AND

2: They have to prove the defendant, at some point, had the encryption key. That requires proving the method of encryption and key generation. With a door lock, you know there's a key. With a safe combo, you know the combo could be 12 digits and broken up between a dozen people. With an encryption system, any combination of things you know, are, or have could be part of the key. Compelling the defendant to reveal all of that is absolutely a violation of their 5th amendment rights.

Example:

Lets assume we're using windows EFS. Lets further assume analysis of EFS indicates the user named "YOU" owns the account. Furthermore, lets assume there are files that have date modified dates within the end users folder that indicate they had logged in the day prior to the search warrant being served.

You give the court the "I don't remember" line.

In that case, forgetting the password is destruction of evidence, not contempt. If a key escrow is used and they can prove it, same deal, destruction of evidence.

This is a little disappointing for several reasons. I understand the merits of GitHub but I really wish Python at least stuck with Mercurial repository and some decentralization.

It's especially sad because Mercurial is just now starting to be incredibly powerful with evolutions.
