I can happily decrypt the laptop the airport. Doesn't mean all the data in the laptop is decrypted. It's way too much data for a non-forensic team to sift through without concerted effort. My house has multiple doors with multiple locks. Just because you made it past the front gate ("please unlock your laptop") doesn't mean you got in to the fire safe inside the locked office inside the locked house. And so you opened the very obvious fire safe where we keep a little cash and some spare keeys and you looked inside. Congratulations, there's four other safes in the house that aren't in plain sight with different combinations, not including all the other stuff that is locked up securely. Just because I entered in an easily recalled and easily typed password that gives you access to 4TB of data, it doesn't mean you can easily access all of that 4TB with the same set of keys. It'd take you "quite some time" to fish through to even find the encrypted data.

Ask HN: Personal archive of rich SMS messages
Has anyone found a workflow or solution to properly exporting sms messages with images and videos into a usable external long term personal knowledge base. I searched for some export to html solutions but they seem to want the experience to then be inside their apps.

What is your use case for this server that makes optimizing for LAN vs WAN latency a valuable outcome? I’ve never really noticed that latency in email clients or when using the HN website and so I’m curious what is unique to your specific scenario that makes it a priority.

My experience with Expedia support is so-so as of this month.

One of my flights was cancelled by Air France and Expedia informed me about it and offered 2 alternative flights or partial refund. To communicate my choice I had to call their support in IE or UK. This is not easy when one is in Indonesia in a remote place. They refused to communicate over email.

So I got a skype subscription and called them. I told them I wished to be refunded because none of the alternative flights offered were compatible with my schedule and they were not able to offer any other flights. They said ok but were unable to tell me how much I would get refunded. They also said I would be receiving an email confirming the refund in 2 days. I received no email, I called them back and asked if my refund choice was registered in their system and if I could get a proof of our agreement for a refund eg. via email. They assured me an email would be sent shortly. It has now been two weeks and I have so far received no refund nor any email or other proof that we have agreed on a refund nor do I know when to expect this refund or the amount.
I generally like to have feature flags default to true in tests. It helps avoid this sort of situation, because if they ignore the flag, they’ve probably broken some tests. And if they only put it in the flagged path, their code won’t work in prod, but it probably won’t break anything either.

Most of Bell's thought-experiments result in fairly unintuitive answers, so it's quite understandable that the distinction would be unclear to someone who hadn't seen this problem before.

The description of the game in the article is incredibly simplified. The original Bell game is that you take two particles and separate them spacially so that any local (slower-than-light) communicaton cannot interfere with the experiment. You then measure their spins in two orientations (the absolute orientation isn't important, only the angle between the two measurements is important) and repeat a large number of times. Then, sum how many times the two measurements had the same spin (+1) or opposite spins (-1) and divide it by the number of measurements to get the "correlation" (scare quotes because this is not the same as what statisticians mean when they say "correlation"). Repeat for a large number of different relative angles and plot "correlation" vs angle.

Quantum mechanics predicts (and experimental data produces) an inverse cosine "correlation" curve. However, it is simply not possible to produce that "correlation" curve using a local, hidden variable theory of quantum mechanics. Why? With some slight hand-waving, it's because the two particles don't know along which (relative) angle the other particle will be measured ahead of time -- if you permit non-locality (faster-than-light communication or "spooky" action at a distance) then this problem goes away. Now, the proof that this is the case is far more involved than this (and to be honest I'm not sure I understand it well enough to explain it). But hopefully that gives you some idea why the "just use an RNG" method is not sufficient.

You're talking about a demographic that is largely old, in poor health, and with few other skills.

Well, while they're still dominant, all the other cultures might decide to band together and discourage, eradicate or dilute the one that keeps growing.

Anyway I agree that we can't say for certain whether population will grow or shrink. In fact in the context of this discussion I think that's the most important point. Many discussions about alien civilizations tend to assume that they'll evolve into huge multiplanetary populations with large energy/EM/whatever footprints. When in reality our most developed cultures are slowly declining in population. If an underground cache of brains in pleasure boxes is the end stage for most civs we will probably never know.
Changing owners invalidates the EULA agreement, no?
What Uber is in this context is basically an intermediary, like a retailer that sits between a manufacturer and a consumer, or a general contractor that sits between a subcontractor and a property owner.

What you have then isn't a transaction between the driver and the rider, it's two transactions, one between the driver and Uber and another between Uber and the rider. Each transaction is negotiated. Uber changes their offers to each party based on supply and demand, and if either party doesn't like it they can hold out for a better offer or go use Lyft. And since Uber does actually adjust pricing based on supply and demand, the better offer actually comes when enough people hold out.

The way you negotiate with them is by delaying your purchase/sale until they meet your price. It's a functioning market.
OK, so if I'm understanding this right - when you give them a pair of entangled particles, they can each do some stuff to their particle to determine what the other party is going to do. How is this not communication?

It looks like you still need security codes setup:

"You'll need to register for both security codes and security keys, however. That's because keys and codes go hand in hand—if you lose your key or don't have it, we'll need to send you a code in order for you to log on. In addition, you'll always need a code to access your accounts from a mobile device."

If an attacker can skip the security key you might as well not use one.

The comments here led me to realize that I didn't really understand, either. Thank you. To save you some searching, I found the answer here [1].

The crux is that Alice and Bob don't know which row/column the other is filling, and they are given symbol-selection rules which would contradict each other if used to fill the whole square, preventing a pre-ordained strategy (e.g. a pre-seeded RNG) with 100% success rate. So a 100% strategy would intuitively need some way of communicating _after_ they are given their row and column, and the math shows that the quasi-communication granted by entanglement is sufficient.

I'm sure my explanation is also insufficient, but there should be enough information at the link to convince you if you're curious.

I'm not sure I agree. Krebs doesn't end this article saying that extension stores should lock down what they're offering. He ends it with a user-centric call to action: that users must do meaningful due diligence, that they should be highly conservative about installing extensions where they haven't vetted the authors, and that they should pay special attention to how extensions change over time.

I'm pretty biased in this area, so I lean towards a certain worldview and interpretation. But having said that, another way to look at this article is as a repudiation of centralized, vendor-controlled moderation in general. Moderation has utterly failed to remove malware from browser extensions. The only way to keep yourself safe is with personal diligence. You can't trust Google or Mozilla to do it for you.

When Krebbs of all people is saying that they're often too nervous to install extensions from these stores -- that means the store security is not working. That means that locking down devices/software has not made us safe.

First thought without even trying to compare the DST shift directly to guess a reason: Comparing sunrise and sunset across the year, London to Chicago, London is slightly more extreme across the year.

Yes, after we eliminate all the trucking jobs in the county which are one of the last remaining decent jobs for unprivileged people, then the robberies will really take off.

> [...] how sharing an entangled particle pair (...) is interestingly different than sharing a seed to an RNG

> They're apparently the same phenomenon

You're the one deciding that they're the same phenomenon, by choosing to only imagine using the entangled particle pair to seed a PRNG on each side using the same method.

The key thing to realize is that Alice and Bob have quantum mutual information, not classical, and that "quantum" here is not just technobabble but actually has meaningful consequences.

If Alice and Bob choose to destroy the quantum information and extract the same bit(s) of classical information from their respective halves of the entangled pair(s) before the game starts, then the quantum case has been reduced to the classical case and you can think of them as the same phenomenon. But if instead they keep the quantum information around past the start of the game and decide what to do with it based on the hand they're dealt, they can get a win rate that's impossible with only pre-shared classical information.
Speaking from personal experience, our team originally made our own wallboard, and it was put on a big monitor in our space. Originally all was fine, the board would stop updating numbers once in a while, but nobody really cared. Just ssh into our raspberry pi, and restart the services.

Turns out that our scrum masters and product owners looked at this board when they walked by, now they wanted to see other things as well. So they started allocating developer time to build these statistics, obviously a job nobody wanted to do. So we bought an existing solution that had all the data sources we needed, and let the business manager their stats.

So yeah, I agree anyone could build it themselves, but it rarely sticks to those 1 or 2 numbers, in which case, it's cheaper to spend a couple of bucks, than have developers continue to support it.
