There are two ways that breaks:

- your key won’t be private forever but future compromise does mean past disclosure

- on long enough timescales if said TLAs can mount offline attacks against it.

So, maybe? But it’s definitely the safest way to do it, most of GPGs problems are unforced interaction errors.
Not exactly. From what i understood, this article is telling that if someone feel he is better at reading/comprehension than he is at math, he is more likely to not go into math-related field, regardless of his math performance compared to the average.
To dumb it up, most of the time, you don't go into a math-related field because you compare your math skills with other, but because you compare your math skills with your own reading skills (at least when you're young).

It feels right, it was a really tough choice between math and philosophy for me and only peer pressure sent me to STEMs (and i sometime regret it). I'm gonna wait until replication is done until i define an opinion.
Late 40s here. I'm going to retire by 50. Then I get to work on my own stuff. I can't wait!

Anyone who saves 20% of their income can retire after 29 work years.

Save 50% and it is 15 years.
Let’s be honest here, at $200k you’ve sold your first born anyway, so does it really matter?
You are completely correct. There are so many levels of management that I never really fully grasped it and most managers are focused on their own personal growth, in stead of the performance of their units.

I have another example of their oversight: In my team there was a single developer who was not a contractor. He was competent and an autodidact. It took them over 6 months to find a way to increase his pay, which would still be less than €4k if I remember correctly. The rest of the team were contractors getting paid well over €100 an hour, which (all costs considered) is about 2-3x more expensive. He left before they were able to give him a raise and replaced him with another contractor. This happens there all the time, because of stupid rules that make getting raises really hard, people leave and sometimes even get rehired as contractors for twice the cost. Everyone knows it happens, but nobody does anything to change it.
I don’t they meant yellow vest , as in the people with the yellow vest doing all the violence. Rather, the whole series of protests, violence, shop destruction, streets in flames, police throwing tears gaz, etc happening for months and months every single saturday.

I assume this company has customers in the EU. If the bug still exists today, try dropping a GDPR complaint to one of the European data regulators. Though they have limited resources, they have started taking these things pretty seriously [1] and will look _very_ unkindly on a failure to report the breach or address it.

Obviously, those (as well as, say, the biological sciences) are not “math intensive fields”, despite appearances to the contrary, whereas churning out CRUD apps is math intensive...

EDIT: Or, to be fair to the authors, other factors besides relative reading ability, as well as as accounting for the other 20% of the gender gap in math-intensive fields in general, also explain the gender distribution between particular math-intensive fields.
Very few people live in permafrost areas, so it won't be a massive problem. Something like Lake Kivu on the other hand...
Had this with an MR2 I used to own.
*sports norm.

Luxury cars are en entirely different class of vehicle, where I doubt this would ever go.
Yes, a larger battery pack can provide more power. You can see this at work in Tesla’s lineup already: the longer range variants also have better acceleration.
Has there been any effort to integrate minisign into git?
They did a great job. I was telling myself the same while scrolling through the article. This is really well done. Congrats NYT!
Great :) I love HP5! Such a nice B&W film for a reasonable price.
That is exactly correct. As I'm sure you know, it is Alice that retains her DH key not the email server or anyone else. As I said:

> If your security model relies on this difference then your security model is broken. It’s worth noting that Signal does NOT rely on this difference. It relies on participants being mostly online to permit frequent rekeys and not having to retain old keys indefinitely.

Signal does not depend on TCP being "bidirectional" as lvh said, it depends on participants being mostly online. This has nothing to do with the transport properties of e-mail vs. TCP.
The article claims that this is a revelation, but I’ve been hearing for at least one year already that webassembly comes at best around half the speed of native.
Usually there are different driving modes. IIRC, in the Tesla sedans, "Chill" mode ups the 0-60 acceleration time to around 8 seconds.
I thought you were joking, but it seems like they really are. That's incredible!

It sounds like you’re saying “and that’s why GPG is good”, but I read that as an argument why there’s a very high probability that one of those things is going to spill the beans, plaintext, in an email anyway.
Sports cars are a specialized good, by nature. You're explicitly deciding to sacrifice some things in favor of some other thing (in this case performance). The people you are going to sell it to are therefore exactly the people that are willing to make that sacrifice, the people that just wanna go really friggin fast
10% slower is actually not that bad, when compared to the safety and portability not given by C/C++. Past 10% performance parity is the stuff of performance optimization challenges; we may have to accept that.

We're all putting up with regular 10% drops in our CPU performance because intel was stupid about alot of things; maybe we could give 10% up for common applications (let's face it, most aren't CPU-bound) having more safety.

Of course, I don't know if wasm is the answer. Jury's still out for whether it's great in native or not; honestly, GUI is still the issue.
There are a few ways in my Model 3:

- Valet mode
- Set a max speed with a pin
- Comfort vs. Sport which changes the driving dynamics drastically
>This is partly why I like Golang so much, they’ve been focusing on readability.

Speaking as someone who's just returned to coding after a two-decade absence (mostly for fun), this is the #1 thing I love about Golang. I can actually read code from very experienced and skilled developers and understand what they'd written. And yet the language itself is highly capable - I don't feel like I'm learning some "beginner" language, but a "real" one that I can use for practical purposes.
Many of the cars on that list are 7 figure (or are in 2019 dollars). So we're likely going to see more of these types of cars on the road just given to its relatively lower price.
So they unveiled it 2017, and now they are selling it? So now you can reserve. Hmm, maybe I missed it but when do you then actually get one? Is it the same thing like their other cars (i.e. when it is done)?

I am a bit confused about what is novel about this. It is not the unveiling, so it must be the reservation possibility but I might be wrong.
Maybe my lack of English skills, just provided the title that made sense to me, as 1:1 mapping to the title seemed not fully describing their intention.
They aren't “math intensive fields”, they are "calculation intensive fields".

Unlafwul in no way implies evil. For every reason that AirBnB is "evil" for breaking the law, you could come up with a reason that the law is "evil" for existing in the first place.
There were a bunch of "alpha brain waves" toys for a minute there a while back. A friend of mine had the Star Wars Jedi one where you put a device on your head and then it detects "alpha waves" and controls a small fan in a clear plastic tube that "levitates" a ball. We figured out eventually that you could pin the thing to the max by reading a book while wearing the device, you didn't actually have to focus directly on the ball.
nope! i have a youtube account that i never migrated. still shows my original username everywhere.
From the article: "First it gave a shorthand description of a zone — the cathedral complex was divided into four — that read “Attic Nave Sacristy.”"

So the entire zone is called "Attic Nave Sacristy", and from that all you know is that there's apparently a fire somewhere in that zone -- could be on the floor of the nave, could be in the cathedral attic, could be somewhere in the sacristy building (even in the attic of the sacristy).

The irony is that you've made a version of the same mistake that either the security employee or the cathedral guard made -- assuming a specific location within that zone. Yours ("the nave attic") happens to be correct; one or both of them assumed it was "the attic of the sacristy building".
The problem with this is that a tool that is too generic is itself dangerous, because it creates cross protocol attacks and confusion attacks like in https://efail.de for PGP email.

I think that a better approach is to bind identities from multiple purpose built cryptographic protocols.

To be fair, contributing to OSM is more work in America. You have to drive every where and you technically aren't allowed to use other maps as a source (I don't know if that's ever followed though)
Because you need to be inside the brain, not just on the surface. And the electrodes need to be flexible, not stiff spikes. So with those constraints, their current approach makes sense. They’ll get to millions of electrodes in the future.
Yes, most of the horrible things that were claimed came to pass. Data caps, getting paid twice for the same stream. Data prioritization, deep packet inspection, DNS injection. Every way imaginable things have gotten worse for consumers save for token and widely woefully poor increases in Internet speeds that most other countries beat for a fraction of the price. Internet prices have also nearly doubled in my area.
Elon Musk Neuralink Livestream – July 16, 2019
Singularity and Midori relied on GC for memory safety, and that was a huge problem for Longhorn/Vista because it was very difficult to write code that would work reliably when memory is critically low.

Rust is a completely different story. Sure, Rust's standard library treats OOM is fatal, which is the right thing for almost all application code, but it's not difficult to create Rust libraries that treat OOM as a recoverable error, or that don't allocate at all.

If the Singularity group had invented Rust instead of Sing# things might have turned out differently.
Why does your condo association allow short term rentals?
FWIW, I'm kinda disappointed at how a lot of people here seems to be on your case and downvoting you, when I think the post was quite informative to show how easy it is to acquire usernames from sites, and that maybe companies should rethink the policies.

If it was in isolation, say 'it takes 48 hours to take a username from SoundCloud' then I couldn't care less, but showing it happen on multiple sites and how they address it does make one think.
This may not be useful but have you tried to ask why you want to be heard. It's worth exploring your motives. Is it to make yourself feel more valued in the team or is it to provide value to the team. Figuring this out may allow you to find a way to change how your team members view you ( if it's needing validation from the team) or if it's the second, which I suspect it is, you may find a way to influence
decisions _without_ having to talk over other people.

Team discussions are a competition of views and attention for space to express them and can be chaotic. Exploring

1. Verbal strategies - some have pointed out couple in the thread

2. Preparation of what you want to say - and framing the negatives strongly and the positives of your argument confidently

3. Seeding - Doing the groundwork and preparation before the discussion itself. Talking to your team members about your ideas and gauging they're reactions - in a way reading the room, and planting your idea so it's not out of the blue at the discussion

There's more but it's down to you. It's probably what you don't want to hear. You'll have to improve the way you communicate within discussions or learn how to influence the leaders and decision makes of the group outside the chaotic conversations.

I'm like you in a way but you've got to choose your battles.
Weird that the article doesn't mention the string of arson and other attacks on Catholic churches in France in the weeks leading up to the Notre Dame fire.

This range is not really surprising. Musk has previously stated that the performance limitation on the Model S has always been the battery. So the bigger the battery, the more juice you can pull for crazy launches. The 620 mile range is just a side-effect of putting in a bigger battery so it can hit the acceleration and top-speed numbers needed to put it in the super-car big-leagues.
It is pretty clear that radio waves can cause cancer. What is unknown is how they do it.

In my experience the reason people have such a hard time getting their point across is because they don't understand it very well themselves. Almost no engineers really understand what they are doing so the only effect practicing communication will have is make them better able to hide their ignorance behind fluffy words, kinda like most management types do. I think that it is a good thing when people are bad at hiding their ignorance, so I prefer communicating with engineers over management types.
I can safely say I will never do this to myself. There's no advantage at all. Technology just isn't compelling enough.

Even if I could close my eyes, tense my brow, and with a wiggle of my nose, launch an army of autonomous drones to hoist a nuclear tipped cruise missile from a launch tube, and point it at some world leader, what a puny plan. And the reality is, that's not the way this will go for me.

This isn't going to be the kind of thing that gets us ahead. If anything, this is the T-Mobile Sidekick of cybernetics. And even when the new iPhone of cybernetic neural interfaces emerge, it's still going to fucking suck.

We're 10,000 light years from the kind of thing I'd find compelling. Hard pass.

Jira Bugs with over 1k votes and 5 years on board
Tried one at a previous workplace ~1.5 years ago (IE/Edge test machine, convenient for carrying around to show people stuff rather than using a VM on your main machine for all Windows testing). Maybe with Linux or a BSD and if you ignore touch it's tolerable? The touch + Win10 experience was janky and lag-tastic. Battery life so-so, can't imagine that'd improve under a *nix unless you disable or forcibly throttle half the hardware. Maybe the high end machines are better? I'd assume that was the entry level one. I was actually surprised at how bad the touch interface experience (and experience generally) was since I remember everyone raving about them when they came out.

How do you compose the document / slides that you use to present via PDF? Using powerpoint or something else?

I'd love to find a tool that composes more attractive presentation media than does powerpoint. But I'm too blinkered by my and everyone else's use of powerpoint to know what that could be.
Those are not fires, that's just cultural enrichment.
Oh, yes; there are certainly many chains like Travelodge and Motel 6 that fit the category of "motel" but are more modern and clean.

However, I can quite assure you that here in rural Upstate New York (and, indeed, even in some of the less-well-off sections of the cities), there are still a great many motels that date to the era I mentioned—very visibly so. (This is why I qualified my statement with "at least around here".)

I have actually stayed in Travelodges a couple of times, and while they were modern, I wouldn't really describe them as "comfortable" (the beds were like tandem canoes) or "clean", at least not universally so.
What is your recourse if you do happen to find a hidden camera? I mean, is it illegal for someone to hide a camera in their own house and not tell you?
I'm anti surveillance, but if it's disclosed in the ad that there are cameras and where they were then it seems like something a person can decide whether or not that bothers them. No cameras seems a little excessive.
I agree with some of the author's concerns in his blogpost. But the real context of his post is here: https://twitter.com/airmailer/status/1150562754534748161

To me, this sounds like a desparate reason to try to captialise on moving to a subscription-based plan. In-app subscription for email push notifications with multiple account support? I'm not convinced.

I'd rather use/migrate back to the stock email app than subscribe to something like this.
It was NYT's work on Ergodan's bodyguards beating up protestors outside of the White House (with Trump's blessing, it seems) that made me subscribe. That kind of reporting is what we need from journalism.
Plus one. I use Netlify for about 6 sites ranging from single page to 10k pages and it works beautifully. For a single static HTML page it’ll do a great job plus it handles DNS entries with a nice UI so you can set up MX. If you need mail I recommend Zoho as they have a free tier for a single domain
A Simple Bash Script to Find Your Forgotten TODOs
> Harare obtains raw water from four dams: Harava, Seke, Chivero and Manyame. Harava and Seke are completely dry. This has led Harare city council to decommission the Prince Edward water treatment plant, which is fed by those dams.

> This has left only one water treatment works – Morton Jaffray – supplying water to Harare and the four other satellite towns.

> The dams that feed Morton Jaffray – Chivero and Manyame – are larger and closer to capacity, said Harare mayor Herbert Gomba. But they are “heavily polluted”, requiring more than 10 chemicals to purify. Upstream towns dump domestic, sewage, agricultural and mining waste into the rivers that feed the capital’s dams. The city is spending $3 million a month on water treatment chemicals, Gomba said, forcing it to restrict the amount released.

50% of their dams are dry, and 1/4 of their dams are heavily polluted. It's disingenuous to say that pollution is their main problem when 1/2 of their water just evaporated. Nor is there any reason to think that their needs would be met by that 1 dam being non-polluted -- that may make it a lesser crisis, but it's still a crisis, caused by climate change.

Sure, there are exceptions. Cinemas also still receive movies as physical harddrives for a number of reasons, but for most people and situations, streaming is fine.
Sure. We do that for eg SSH. I don’t think it’s a great idea for our standard audience (startups) to implement.

People earning enough to live decently is not "worth it"? They are protesting against stupid climate actions that are mostly taken to give the impression the government is doing something, while in reality, it is just a way of getting a little more money out of tax payers.

France barely emits 0.1% of world's CO2, how is it fair to tax fuel for cars (note that air traffic is left alone)? How is it fair when nothing is planned to help people live and work without their car?

Edit: so far, all responses conveniently avoid the part where the government is taxing gas more and more, without making the investments to provide citizens with other means of transportation. Not all of France is Paris or Bordeaux or Lyon. Just like not all the US is NYC and SF. The majority of the population has no access to reliable public transportation to even consider not using their car.
They did not. You really had to jump through hoops to keep it - they really tried to force you to merge your accounts — but it was possible. Source: I never converted.
Well that should be visible on the submission link page.

In any case, I cannot edit the title now.
The concept of continuations is well-established and they have their uses. They have been part of the landscape for years. They can be confusing, and that's impossible to separate from their power.

The inversion of control that this paper is talking about is the way an application running on a webserver typically gets called by the browser rather than the other way around. Continuation-based webservers reverse this inversion and create an illusion of continuity of control flow on the server side. The application is suspended when a page is sent to the browser and resumed (via a continuation) when the response arrives. So this is about permitting server-side applications to be written in a nicer style as far as control flow is concerned.

I think you are getting downvoted because your comment more or less says that you don't know much about the background, and haven't read and understood the paper, but are inclined to dismiss it anyway.

"I believe Elon is stating that the liability may land on the car owner’s insurance"

There is never liability on insurance. Insurance is just a method of payment. It is possible that insurance will cover this, but that's irrelevant to the point.
