I'm someone familiar with how it works, though obviously I do not search for the material myself - but it depends where one goes. I2P is known for its torrent capability and the torrents can be freely obtained. Tor has various forums that are free to sign up for. Freenet has many, many sites from what I can tell are freesites for this content.

I simply don't buy the idea that the majority of CP advertised on the dark web is only available for pay or exchange; I'm sure a lot of it is, but this "market effect" thing is unsubstantiated as far as I can tell, even though many would like to believe it's a good argument against something heinous, that doesn't mean we should just accept it.

>Plus there's the torment of the victim, knowing that there are people out there to this day jerking off to video of the worst experience of their lives.

This I can understand and actually I regard it as a bigger motivator to the illegalisation of possession. However often they don't know, and could you reassure them that it's not happening if you put an effort toward eradicating only their images? And if they don't know, doesn't that also eradicate this argument in those cases too? What if they don't have a problem with it, or rather, they are neutral about it? The harm would have to be found, and if there is no harm, the argument collapses in that case. Of course the argument also does not apply to pornography in which the victims are dead or unconscious etc. which would seem to, considering only this argument, make such material permissible.
A website can sell links like you're describing.. that's not illegal. I've seen ad networks that only sold those types of links.

What's being described in the article is commercial bribery:

This is correct. Or, at least, people would like to remove XUL eventually: the tractability of that is still a topic of research.
I wouldn't worry about it too much. I've yet to see any US politician make a serious case for making non-backdoored encryption illegal, or banning Tor. A couple people have mentioned the idea, but no one's proposed legislation or anything like that.

You quoted:

> The collection, processing and use of special types of personal data (Section 3 (9))

BDSG Section 3 (9) says:

> (9) “Special categories of personal data” means information on a person’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical convictions, union membership, health or sex life.

This exception does not apply to behaviourial tracking, such as the list of the visited domains.

This is not legal advice, I am not a lawyer.
I've called upon Drive Savers before, when an employer's RAID 5+1 drive lost two disks in one afternoon, the second halfway through a rebuild—and then the proprietary, ancient RAID controller board died before we got somebody onsite. Unfortunately, all the RAID configuration was stored in the dead board and the data layout on disk was proprietary.

We ended up paying about $7,000 to Drive Savers and they managed to recover all my employer's data. Drive Savers is definitely a class act.

So this offer is a big deal: This isn't some fly-by-night company just trying to market their services. This is a very high-end recovery operation which normally costs a lot of money.

One would need to be extremely irresponsible in order to let themselves be hacked. I would consider it as a punishment and a lesson more than anything.

Hi! Author here. Thanks for the appreciation!

You're right, I didn't describe the details of networking. My main goal was to keep it as short as possible while still explaining the main "pillars" of Bitcoin in detail, and networking did not make the cut. As far as my understanding goes, there isn't anything inherent to Bitcoin in the way its network works (it could apply to most other distributed networks), so I thought including this would stretch things too much and stray too far off topic in a way.
And recovering from phones (same thing as flash pretty much, but with different mechanics in terms of getting access)
I do not believe it is possible for you to have more greatly misunderstood the point of my post.
What does "Lol, no." mean? You seemed to have described a local maximum with "It will dip further".

I'd speculate on selling 5k-5.5k which may have passed, or maybe not, and buying below 2k depending on how the downtrend shapes up. My stop loss for this single idea is from 5.5k-6k.
50% of days in any city means it can handle Minnesota snow and ice.

As you have stated it, implying the car can go anywhere at any time (no constraints on routes mentioned) and is available in most major cities, that's very speculative that it would be deployed to that degree.

It will be deployed within a few years although with some reasonable constraints and it will be extremely useful even with those constraints.

Edit: Actually, looking at that statement again, some of what I read as implied is actually just ambiguous. I would make the bet if I could correct the ambiguous parts to be more realistic.

Yeah, I was struck by how both examples in the article were property owners living out of state who never even met their tenants? One of them thought she was renting to a family with two kids, but it was actually some scammers. Meeting your renters in-person once would have cleared that up.

These people are buying a property, renting it to cover the mortgage, and planning to sell it at a profit. All without doing any work. Treating real estate as a passive investment rather than an active business does damage to the housing market in some of the same ways people complain AirBnB does.
Iirc Firefox lets you copy/paste alert text, but it was years ago when I tried that so I'm not 100%.

JavaScript is single threaded, but all IO operations like network and disk uses threads in Node.JS, So there are still racing conditions, like when accessing the file system. But all other operations are single threaded, like storing data in memory. In for example PHP, where the server spawns the threads everything becomes multi threaded. In node.js instead of using locks etc, you use callbacks, so when something is finished, a function is called ... It's just like event listeners in the browser.
Many people complain about Node.JS being single threaded, but it's actually a big relief, they probably haven't been dealing with issues like locks and racing conditions.

To get cpu bound parallelism in Node.JS you have to spawn child processes. There's a built in module in NodeJS called "cluster" that abstracts this a bit.
When talking to a child process you could just as well be talking to another machine over the network, the code will look the same, and scaling horizontally across many machines will be easier, compared to languages that solve concurrency by using threads instead of non blocking IO.

There's a learning curve though. It took me about six months to learn how to do async programming, manage messages between different processes and machines, and callbacks, I do remember the "callback hell", but now it has become a second nature, it's like brushing my teeth, but more fun.
I don't think half a year is that bad, you would need just as long time to get comfortable in any other language. And I consider JavaScript very newbie friendly, you don't need a CS degree to write JavaScript.

> of course, it's just one product

In the sense that one package gets shipped to the end user, sure. But it's composed of many individual projects (SpiderMonkey, devtools, toolkit, layout...) which follow their own development paths and could each be broken out into their own repositories.
The Airbnb customers had no legal right to be in the property in question. Maybe it's trespassing rather than breaking and entering; but they weren't legal tenants.
>Why downvote this comment? Genuinely curious.

Because it raised a complaint that had nothing to do with the article. That's an article describing the results from a study on self-reported happiness level through people's lives from 1.3 million sample respondents. The question about "misfortune" is a non sequitur -- out of the scope of the study, and irrelevant to it. Those 1.3 million random samples will still have the same distribution of misfortunes as the general population in their countries.

Second, because it didn't seem to differentiate between a journalist reporting on the results of a survey, and those that did the survey.

Third, because I don't find the article poorly written, and I don't particularly care whether someone "flagged" it or not -- reminded me of those who bring up "cancelling their subscription" in their letters to the editor.
Librsvg's build infrastructure: Autotools and Rust
Not only the UK an Canada, but Australia, NZ and some European countries too have implemented what I must say is a heinous law against freedom of expression through drawing. This hideous trend shows that governments have little care.

It was also illegal in all of the US at the country level, however this was stricken down by SCOTUS rightly in my judgement as a violation of the first amendment. There are still state laws against it.
> that the distribution of those images in itself causes harm.

How do they know that the distribution of these images took place? How did that even affect them in their life?

I honestly doubt that this is the case - and even then it would be only an argument against distributing it, not watching it.
Hit the download button for nightly, only to start reading the comments here and realizing that a bunch of addons will stop working. Checking my list, FireGestures will stop working, Self-Destructing Cookies apparently already stopped working this version (broke localStorage deletion), and a more obscure one (QuickJava) is also legacy. The latter is the only one I could find that adds easy on/off toggles for Javascript, CSS, Flash and Proxy. They want to receive telemetry to see how people use nightly?

Firefox has 80 million daily active users, so that's an 'only' in context. Keeping XUL around and all of its messiness to support a small niche of users at the expense of what most users want is part of why Firefox has lost so many users to less customizable, (arguably) less capable competing browsers.
I keep hearing this, but I can't quite bring myself to agree. Let's stay tech-positive and use this problem to advance our industry.

The problem is this: we don't have any machine that simplifies vote counting while being as trustworthy as having many people count marks on many sheets of paper. And since that is prone to errors and manipulation as well, so the bar is actually much lower than "perfection".

Can we really not do trustworthy vote counting better than humans? Can we not make a computer that defeats a human at reliable counting? If we cannot do that, we should reconsider our craft and wonder why. I am not enough of a computer scientist to come up with a good verification plan, but I'd be very surprised if we couldn't do it.

Gullible or corrupt government officials, sneaky sales people and shady politicians are a very different problem. Our job should be to make the machine so good and reliable that these people are driven out of the game.
It's completely consistent with the economic nationalism and populist rhetoric: improving the ability to act selfishly or even vindictively, without wide scale repercussions, is good. This isn't an economic policy, it's both political and religious based.

Jan-Werner Muller noted that populists do not like having to cope with any form of political opposition or constraint: “when ruling, [populists] refuse to recognize any opposition as legitimate. The populist logic also implies that whoever does not support populist parties might not be a proper part of the people — always defined as righteous and morally pure.”

It's not illegal to keep out trespassers. Maybe one wouldn't change the locks on the first day, but after seeing one group of carousing teenagers with whom one had no contractual relationship replaced by a different such group, it would be pretty safe to shut the whole thing down.

They want to never touch it ever. They want it to work and they want never having to ever think about it. This is perhaps the polar-opposite of what IIoT provides today, requiring constant configuration and security patches.

Indeed, I would extend that to all technology in general today --- software that seems to need constant updating and is in a state of flux, wondering what else is going to get broken with the next update, etc. Anything web-based has a particularly high churn. It's actually quite unsettling even for someone who isn't running an industrial process but just wants to use their computer to get stuff done.

The lifetime of a lot of industrial process equipment is measured in decades, and maintenance/downtime is very infrequent. Continuous reliability is more important than latest and greatest.

> If we look at mental illnesses as a whole, I feel like untreated depression and bipolar disorder are FAR more costly for American society.

Yes, of course, reportedly psychopath % is 4% of society, but the number of serial killers is a mere fraction of that 4%. Psychopaths or not, the number of serial killers is also very small compared to the number of depressed Americans, or obese Americans for that matter. What matters is: 'can a person function in society?' If no, that's a loss for that individual as well as for society. The victims of the serial killers are just [often] innocent to the victim which clouds our judgement on severity. Compare terrorism victims with traffic accident victims.

> it's somewhat dreadful that the tech industry seems to elevate/celebrate psychopathic traits such as ignoring rules, impulsiveness, and lack of empathy.

3/3 match with antisocial personality disorder. Quoting Wikipedia:

"Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), also known as sociopathy, is a personality disorder characterized by a long term pattern of disregard for, or violation of, the rights of others. An impoverished moral sense or conscience is often apparent, as well as a history of crime, legal problems, or impulsive and aggressive behavior." [1]

It also doesn't help Hare mixes up sociopathy and psychopathy in his works.

Gmail hacked,replying to craigslist ads
My boyfriend and I have been together 3 years now and he moved to another state, and left his tablet behind. I use it to play games on and one night a email popped up with a picture of a naked chick. So naturally I was like "what the hell?"

So I click on the email and it said "hey I got your message to my Craigslist ad sorry I didn't reply busy with my new job, I'm free this weekend if you want to have fun" and so on. I thought it was spam but I got more suspicious.

I then looked through his inbox and found nothing weird so I went to the sent box. There I saw 10 messages replying to craigslist ads in the personals section of the new state he moved to. They had a older private picture of himself and his new phone number attached saying "up for some sexting fun" etc. I also looked through more in case, and saw some from June replying to 2 ads on Craigslist but in the state he was in before he moved, with the same private picture in the others. He claims he was hacked when I confronted him about it. I asked all the questions, why would someone take time to hack you and find your picture and phone number and put it on there. And he wants me to move with him.

I have read peoples stories of the same occurrence before. But is he lying, saying someone hacked him ?
Yeah, as a noob I'd find this a lot less offensive then being told to type some mind-numbing text.
