I don't think that press release is applicable, since no chargebacks are involved here. According to Stripe's documentation (see submitted link), the merchant must still pay the 2.9% + $0.30 processing fee for each refunded transaction, unless Stripe's customer service representatives waive the fees as an exception.

But there is an issue with this euphemism in the parent comment:

If Stripe "cares about your success", Stripe would return the processing fee on all refunded transactions (regardless of whether they are fraudulent) just like Square and Amazon Pay does.

This is what people are talking about when they talk about the "Print Screen" button or screenshots or securing the clipboard. But I'm not kidding about the "inevitable plaintext reply" problem. Everyone I know who has used PGP at scale has seen it. These aren't people deliberately doing dumb things; they're doing things a bad tool begs them to do, because the underlying system is designed for, expects, begs for plaintext.

Nobody can do anything about people deliberately subverting the security of their privacy tools. There's nothing deliberate about plaintext replies. The people who do that don't want their messages sent in plaintext.

Yeah. You could take just a single intro to cs class (or c)and go from there. Programming has so much demand you can start later in life than probably any other field.
Fine, I'll bite.

A phone number is far more identifying than 10+ years' worth of email metadata. Anonymous email is still possible (if difficult); anonymous phone numbers largely are not. And if your adversaries are state-level then your phone number gives them not only your name and address, but also a direct and easy way to track your location in realtime.

OpenPGP's key rotation remains the closest thing to a practical approach that actually exists. No supposedly "secure" messenger has managed to do better: either your contacts' keys sometimes change for reasons that you don't understand and you occasionally get told to "press OK to continue", or they don't change at all. That is not a sustainable approach for real security.

As the article points out, snake-oil encryption products are everywhere. How can you be sure you're not using one? Because tptacek posted saying this one is secure? At a minimum the product needs to be an open-source implementation of a published, established, reviewed standard with multiple independent implementations. Especially any random number generator it uses needs to be open-source, as that is the easiest way to backdoor an encryption product. And the way its cryptosystem provides security - the algorithms that it uses, the assumptions they rely on, the model and reasoning that turns those into guarantees - need to be simple enough that you can understand them, not rely on vague handwaves like "the proprietary intermediary server can't do anything except during the initial handshake, or if the client ends up redoing the initial handshake, but don't worry about what circumstances might cause that to happen".

Signal is unsafe and cannot be made safe. Stop using Signal.

(If you want something more constructive, work on better UI to make OpenPGP key rotation easier (using subkeys, they're right there in the protocol), better implementations of OpenPGP (i.e. more usable libraries), or non-email OpenPGP messengers to avoid the metadata issues)
Almost the entirety of emissions are made up of 5% when you decompose by sector.

I’m not sure you are. Using the promise of a pardon, with the implicit threat of upcoming or continuing prison time, to coerce someone into doing something politically favourable for you is extortion.

One thing I've wondered recently is how possible it is to recreate the double slit experiment (with electrons) just in your garage today. It feels like the cost of the required components have to have come down from whatever it was in the 60s into if not affordable then at least in the range of a semi dedicated hobbyist. I will admit to having done very little research in this regard (at most looking at CRT monitors as potential electron beam sources), but kinda just intriguing to me what the potential general cycle of scientific experiment -> commodity might be and how that might vary across experiment classes.

> By failing to actually specify the actual attack the writer hopes to prevent a rebuttal. I am pretty sure they are talking about EFAIL. EFAIL was itself a weird slander of the idea of encrypted email but ultimately did not show any weakness of either PGP or S/MIME. It was instead a cautionary tale about the use of HTML for email.

What you said there can't be stressed enough. Despite that almost no email client in the past decades defaults to allowing active or remote content. But because you could turn all that on with some clients... it somehow means PGP and S/MIME were impossibly insecure.

"Weird" is a good word to describe things.

It's one of the reason I favor framework over libs or micro-framework, espacially from beginner.

E.G: I tell beginners to use django, not flask.

Because people usually don't have the skill or knowledge to take proper design decisions. They need something to guide them, otherwise the project architecture will be terribly wrong.

Last year I worked on a flask site were the devs stored the password hashed as unsalted md5. And another one with an API that returned sometimes JSON, sometime plain text. And this year one that, to be deployed, required you to run a build process on the prod server, and defined the upload folder and static media folder as the same.

My take on this is: if you want to go the minimalist route, you need to be very good already.

My departure from the UK was initially due to the post-Brexit impossibility of fighting the latest of those laws, the Investigatory Powers Act. There is a technical difference between the EU and European Court of human rights et cetera, but politically they are seen as equivalent by the UK.

On the day thre results came in I had been of the opinion “it can’t be too bad, because only an idiot would hold a referendum on something important where the wrong result was possible” — Although it quickly became clear Brexit was inherently a terrible plan implemented by incompetent politicians, and therefore Cameron was in fact an idiot, adding to my reasons to leave the UK.
The thing that's hard to swallow is that you're recommending a plan that maybe solves the problem by 2050. Remember, STARTTLS was standardized 22 years ago and you still can't reject emails from servers that don't use it unless you're okay with missing business-critical messages, in my experience. Meanwhile, Signal works today. It would be cool if there was a group working on the solution you've laid out, and maybe it'll still be relevant when it arrives, but if you have any privacy needs before you retire we have to point you at Signal.
It wasn't possible even before GDPR - the UK has had strong data protection laws since the mid-90's

I don't have a problem with "LARP" as I understood the analogy and having a bit of flair in writing helps make it memorable. Editorially speaking it may be too niche a reference and be confusing. (Reading these comments it certainly has been.)

The condescension I see is in calling out "technologists." I've never heard that before. Just looking at the word it sounds like it means a person who works with modern technology. Wouldn't that encompass the majority of Hacker News readers? But by context you don't seem to have a favorable opinion of the group. What makes someone a technologist to you? Do you include yourself and if not why not? What justification is there for you to generalize people in such an unflattering way?

I don’t think MWI would explain why particles from different universes should be able to interfere with one another. I’m not sure what that even means. But quantum mechanics and MWI certainly does explain precisely in what ways they do interfere.

The universes aren’t identical, of course. There’s a universe for every path of the electron that is physically possible.
I understand the points of the article and somehow agree with them.

But I still think that PGP can and should be used in certain scenarios: think of how Snowden interacted initially with Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras.

That particular scenario was about anonimity (I don't want to reveal the sender persona just yet) and temporary "validity" of the messages: if down the line, one or two years later, the message gets decrypted, no harm is done.

Potentially, Snowden could have used a burner phone, install signal and get hold of the journalists phone number - more difficult that email, but not impossible. In Europe it's not so simple to get a sim card in a complete anon way: not impossible, but if one need several sim cards it may get cumbersome and expensive.
There are limits of course, but I wouldn't have thought you're getting near to them yet when it comes to graduate funding in a strong economy like the US. In the UK it's common for graduate stipends at London universities to be significantly higher to take the cost of living into account. Even the minimum wage is higher for jobs in London.

Does it not strike you as a rather peculiar viewpoint that everything that exists should be easily understandable by untrained humans? That's quite a thing to expect from the universe.

It's not just "not an explanation", it's declaring that there _is no_ correct and easily understandable mathfree explanation or analogy. The only way you can properly understand things like this is within the context of the experimental measurements we've made and the mathematical models we've developed as a result. There's no way to explain these to a five year old in a way that's not significantly incorrect (unless perhaps they happen to be
uncommonly good at linear algebra) .

The current layperson explanation is so significantly incorrect that I think it's actually detrimental. Photons aren't "particles" like marbles, and they're not also "waves" like you see on the ocean. They're sure as hell not both at the same time in some sort of religiously inspired "don't question it" union.

What they are are entities, abstract things that we can create and play with and measure. We can make somewhat complicated mathematical models to predict certain aspects of their (and similar entity's) behavior. They at times exhibit behavior one would expect from a particle. In other cases they exhibit behavior one would expect from a wave. They're neither though, they're their own thing that behave by their own rules. That's it.
Interestingly, there is a (possibly still incomplete?) model of QM that explains this mystery and can even be replicated in human scale experiments: The de Broglie-Bohm pilot wave model.

In this model, both the wave and the particle are simultaneously real. the particle is being moved around by the wave. When we get near the double slit, the wave naturally travels through both slits and forms an interference pattern.The particle randomly moves through one of the slits, and is them carried further by the interference pattern, the highest probability being that it will be carried to one of the local maxima.

The nicest part is that this exact behavior can be seen by bouncing a droplet of oil or silicone on a vibrating bath of the same material: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsaUX48t0w8 .

Of course, this being a consistent model for QM, it doesn't get away from the Bell inequalities, it doesn't have local realism. It does preserve realism, but it it is a nonlocal theory (some effects travel instantaneously).

I obviously don't have the actual stats, but I think this is widely used by parents (of the parents I know, usage of the various Screen Time restrictions seems standard, which makes sense to me).

Why hasn't it been noticed? The user isn't the customer. Parents enable the feature, but I doubt they actually use the iPad with filters on and look at what it's blocking. One of the first replies to my tweet was a mom who had been asked by their child yesterday why they'd blocked the word "teen"[1] - and of course they didn't know!

And great idea on filing a Radar as well! (I already backchanneled this to a couple friends who work at Apple, so hopefully it just gets duped to their reports.)
