Mostly correct.

“Several studies have shown that megadoses of the vitamin can lead to outbreaks of acne and rosacea, a skin condition that causes redness and pus-filled bumps on the face. Yet, it should be noted that most of these studies focused on high-dose injections rather than oral supplements (5, 6, 7).

There is also some evidence suggesting that high doses of B12 may lead to negative health outcomes in those with diabetes or kidney disease. One study found that people with diabetic nephropathy (loss of kidney function due to diabetes) experienced a more rapid decline in kidney function when supplemented with high-dose B vitamins, including 1 mg per day of B12. What’s more, the participants receiving the high-dose B vitamins had a greater risk of heart attack, stroke and death, compared to those receiving a placebo (8).

Another study in pregnant women showed that extremely high B12 levels due to vitamin supplements increased the risk of autism spectrum disorder in their offspring (9).“

>"All of the world’s major superpowers have a vested interest in building their own custom silicon processors. The vital ingredient to this allows the superpower to wean itself off of US-based processors, guarantee there are no supplemental backdoors, and if needed add their own."

Any major company that deals in anything Internet, Web or Cloud related -- also has a "vested interest in building their own custom silicon processors", for exactly this reason -- security.

Some have realized this (Apple, Google, etc.), and have the resources to do this.

Others have realized this and do not have the resources to do this (smaller companies).

Still others have not realized this yet (thinking that software virus protection will solve problems which are in hardware), and are still in the process of waking up.

Prediction: We're going to see a lot of new CPUs and CPU designs by many players in the next 20 years...
I don’t know how to make a semiconductor, but does that mean that Intel couldn’t make a 7nm even if you gave them access to TSMCs fab, because they don’t know how to design a 7nm chip?
A common response to the idea of "police reform" is that it will make it harder/more expensive/etc to hire police, which we all agree we need.

As an armchair economist who believes that everything DOES happen at the margins, we can't completely ignore this, so I'm at least somewhat sympathetic to the argument.

But what really kills the argument is looking at how our medical professionals have stepped up and responded to COVID-19, putting their lives on the line every day, with utterly inadequate gear. And still they serve.

Yes, if the police are less militarized and have more personal liability/responsibility, it will reduce the level of interest in the profession somewhat, but I think we have to not kid ourselves about the degree of such an impact.

This is before we get into whether we really even want "those people" (who are attracted to the militaristic side of policing) 'serving' our communities at all.

Just as anti-pursuit policies have swept the nation to reduce officer-involved carnage, we can reduce escalation of violence.
This made me laugh way harder than it should. Just imagine that one line. It'd either be the greatest or most terrifying piece of code I think I'd ever be likely to witness. Probably in all existence really. But then of course, someone would have to come along and port that ultimate one line of Perl code to brainfuck and one up them and then someone else would come along and turn that one liner into an entire lisp dialect and on it'll go.
It might be the best way, but distributing your malware as executable - maybe bundled with some other app - is easy. Plenty of bad actors out there who can’t pull the fancy tricks.

Smartscreen may protect against cases where somebody has for example repackaged WinSCP and distributes it with malware.

You could do a lot worse than to have the operators store their shares in their separate password managers or on paper in safe places.

It does admit the possibility that an operator's share could be copied. To work around that you can get a proper HSM that needs a quorum of smart cards presented to unlock. (The offline, low QPS, root of trust-oriented ones are not exactly cheap, but much cheaper than the network-attached ones targeting high QPS transactions). Vault Enterprise has PKCS#11 integration.

With the Thales nShield stuff, you can replicate key material from one to another for redundancy while allegedly still preserving the "can't ever get keys out in plaintext" property. Not sure about others.
China unveils plan to make Hainan a free trade hub like Hong Kong, Singapore
China has unveiled a package of special policies for Hainan, including scrapping import duties, in an effort to turn the tropical island into the mainland’s answer to Hong Kong or Singapore and dampen the risk of decoupling with the United States.

Beijing on Monday outlined its plan to make the 35,000 sq km island a “free trade port” by lowering the income tax rate for selected individuals and companies to 15 per cent, and relaxing visa requirements for tourists and business travelers.

The island province of 9.5 million people will also enjoy freedoms in terms of trade, investment, capital flows and the movement of people and data by 2035, as it moves toward becoming a hub of “strong international influence” by the middle of the century.

The project to make Hainan, which covers an area 30 times that of Hong Kong, into a regional trade, shopping and shipping centre has been “planned, arranged and promoted by General Secretary Xi Jinping personally”, according to the government statement.

> And no matter what upheaval lies ahead, I am certain that the light that illuminates that dust so brightly can never be put away. There are no more gatekeepers, oftentimes for worse, but also for better.

I am not so sanguine. People in power all over the world are seeing the threat to their power from the Internet and working to curtail it. China is probably the most ahead, but I am sure everyone else is hard at work.

The centralization of the Internet makes it a much easier task. If you get Google, Facebook, and Twitter on board, you basically control the flow of information to most of the West.

In the West it probably won’t be overt coercion but more likely via monetary and legal incentives. Immunity or liability from lawsuits for user posted content will be the big carrot and stick that will be used to get these companies to do the governments’ bidding.

I fear that the George Floyd video equivalent 10 years from now will get immediately deleted by ML algorithms as too disturbing and the uploaders automatically banned
You clearly don’t know much about how style jobs work. Sometimes it can be done anywhere, but there is a difference. Like most of the nicer things in life, if you can’t tell the difference, then it’s not for you.

Every day, try to think of something you can share with them, and then do it. Some ideas:

Tell them about what made you smile that day. Neat moments that you appreciated, but they weren't there to share it with you.

Food and drink. Whatever you're eating and enjoying, share it with that friend. Either invite them out or bring/send it to them.

Text, pictures, and video. Funny and positive, no drama, politics, etc.

Experiences. Think of something you like to do that can be shared, and invite them out to do it.

Share your time and effort. Offer your help, once, maybe twice. Don't be pushy with it. If they accept, help them like a servant, doing exactly what they ask you.

The basic idea is to consistently repeat the combination of "spending time together with you" and "day is improved".

If you do one of these daily with five people for a month, I can almost guarantee you will end up with at least one friend.

After that, you can focus on that one person more for a month to deepen your friendship. After that, add a few more people, but maintain friendship with the one person.
Definitely agree on wobbly keys and that is something better on the newer Butterfly / Magic Keyboard. I just wouldn't trade it with Key travel though.

I think the pre 2015 / 17" Macbook Keyboard had 1.8mm Key Travel. And 1.5mm felt different but not bad. I tried the Surface Pro which said it had 1.3mm Key Travel. And to me that is about as low as it can go before the typing experience deteriorate rapidly. I remember reading somewhere there are certain laptop with 1.1mm Key travel but they compensate it with higher actuation force, so instead of 60g it was something like 70g to make up for the difference.

> Putting someone’s job title in quotes like that is super condescending. It’s bad taste, especially when you make more and you’re commenting on a post where 1,400 of them got laid off.

It's in quotes with an inline description because, while it's the actual job title for the positions in question, it's also a common English word that in most circles would refer to a "hair stylist".

Ascribing negative intentions to minor punctuation and making up biographies about your fellow commentators says more about your bad taste and biases than mine.

Confidential Computing
I mean there are a lot of resources but they are at a very high level. I don't think much has changed.

The basic idea is that with Tor, you make HTTPS connections to the "tor relay", a network of volunteers who route your traffic around the world to make it hard to track. You can use Tor in two ways: you can join the relay network and route traffic for others, or you can just use the browser and make queries. If you do decide to join the relay network you have an additional decision about whether you will be an "exit node", one that does the final request to the destination website and thus appears to be the initiator of the request. This is an option because it can be difficult on home internet setups: if someone uses your exit node to post a lot of stupid crap to Reddit and Reddit tries to IP-ban them, then you are suddenly IP-banned from Reddit at home, because you ran the exit node.

If you are just a user then the only thing you need to know is that there is a price for your privacy, which is that routing your traffic all the way around the world takes a little more time than sending it straight to you, and this has two effects -- a latency jump which exists basically no matter how big the network gets, and a slowdown in your bandwidth which depends on how big the network is relative to the number of people trying to browse with it.
> By this time most users have deleted the .exe already thinking it is a malware, but SmartScreen can be bypassed by clicking on “More info” then “Run anyway”.

What typically happens is people don't even click on more info. They redownload the files and then give up and the files are now collecting bit dust. Source: me.

Also, I think it has been going on for more than a year now.
This sounds like an excellent case for equipment limitations. At the very least making departments pay 'retail' for gear instead of getting effectively donated surplus.
Nothing of this disproves the effect of the polar ice. The forces still apply, they're just not shifting daily.
FWIW I've tried to do my research and CS seems to be the one we were exposed to (it was also called that at the time but I didn't want to say it as I wouldn't state that as a fact based on what I heard informally 20 years ago.)

We were a few hundred recruits who were exposed to it at that week and everyone seemed to be fine next day.

I'm fourty now and I've never experienced any problem that I would guess comes from my experience with tear gas.

(FWIW, I was exposed to it in a closed room but only briefly, not more than a minute or so I'd guess, possibly less.)
Indeed! This release promise more focus on usability and that's really great. human readable URLS and .onion headers can help newcomers get out to find their way and evade scams
The circumstances where the escrow IS NOT returned would be the forfeitures. You have to read between the lines since the comment only specifies when escrow IS returned.

So, alleged copyright owner loses escrow when a counter claim is filed. The accused loses escrow when a lawsuit is filed.

This detail isn't as important as the overall result. Those who engage in mass DMCA abuse will directly lose money as a result.
I think that is a very interesting concept I had not given enough thought to. Is the solution something like federation? Protocols over platforms?

The semicolon versus the em dash–an eternal quandary
Law enforcement can get pretty creative when they use these "non-lethal" weapons as well.

In Venezuela, police forces killed a student and have injured hundreds of people by shooting the canisters straight at protesters.

They also killed at least two people and horribly injured thousands by shooting at them point blank with rubber bullets.
I think eitland's question is reasonable clear, and seems honestly asked.

The answer to your reframing seems likely to be that tear gas is better than rubber bullets, and that some sort of violence would be needed in order to stop the initial persistent violence.

Something else that's key, IMO, to the underlying situation is the rule of law; that those at any political level committing crimes need swift, visible, justice to demonstrate democracy is being adhered to. It should be much harder for a person in a position of power to avoid a prosecution and loss of power ... the ease with which that is happening for some at the highest echelons of power, to me, shows that the system is corrupt and demonstrates that justice will not be delivered for us plebs. Why then submit to that system, when those in power do not.
A couple of questions..

1. Does every client have a copy of shh to interact with the secrets? Or are the secrets in the file served from a single centralized node?

2. What is your process of exchanging user keys with shh?

3. If someone leaves the company, what is the process you go through to change the secrets and rotate keys?
Interesting that they aren't doing it the same way as Apple, where you pay to be part of the program and they provide all the certificates. Certainly seems cheaper at $100/yr compared to the prices of these certs.

Also why are these certs so much more expensive compared to a normal SSL certificate?
I have something resembling a Zettelkasten using Tiddlywiki with the Stroll plugin. I'm loving it. I feel like this system is taking me from being someone who hoards notes and never looks at them to someone who actively learns and remembers by making connections between newly-added notes and pre-existing ones in my Tiddlywiki.

I understand the concept of Tor but since the government is actively watching, it doesn't really fit the usecase if I understand correctly.

From a privacy point of view, couldn't you use multiple VPNs?
Meanwhile my suburban Walmart has airport-level security theater: substantial bag checks on exit and one way doors to enter the shopping area.
I think we should also make it legal for police departments to discriminate against combat veterans when hiring, and encourage them to do so. Perhaps as a token of fairness, this could be paired with a separate initiative to provide other sort of jobs to combat veterans.

People trained by the military to police occupied communities should not be allowed to act as civilian police in peacetime conditions.
> Make it opt-in for submissive persons who want to please MSFT.

Users don't read. Anything that's opt-in will never be opted into, because users won't even look at what the dialog says. (See also: organ donation.)

Most of UX design isn't targeted at people with opinions; it's targeted at the 99% of users who want to never make any decisions at all, because they don't see the system they're interacting with as their responsibility to dictate the policy of. They treat even their own computer—at least in the software sense—as "somebody else's computer."

They're used to interacting with the literal "somebody else's computer" at work, and at informational kiosks; and with the non-literal "somebody else's computer" in the form of the game-console walled-gardens, and the cloud-managed IoT devices. So it's no surprise that they think that "somebody else's computer" rules apply to their PC, too.

> In all cases, the organizers wanted to cooperate with the police. They knew who were in the "autonomous bloc" (troublemakers) and would have gladly helped the police zone in on them.

How many organizers are there compared to participants? How are the participants supposed to know the police intrusion has been agreed to? How do you know there aren't participants who would choose to align themselves with the "autonomous bloc" over the police? Assuming all "good"(work with organizers) demonstrators work together, how would you give notice without giving the "autonomous bloc" ample time to disappear into the crowd? It isn't like the demonstrators are surrounding the rioters and/or opening a path for the police.

As for using tech to track rioters, perhaps it is far from good enough in protest situations. I imagine it is hard to get a hold of enough data to train for that situation. Perhaps the police have been prevented from using it. I know Clearview AI tech has already been banned in a number of places.

Did you ever go to the police to find out what you could have done differently to prevent the indiscriminate charge?
Is it just me or do the "Concerned Home Office Associates" not sound like they actually work at Walmart? I talk to the workers at my local Walmart and they don't refer to themselves as "associates", or care enough about a minimum wage job to contact media over anti-shoplifting AI failing.

Editorializing, maybe, but I'd say pertinent too.
It should be noted that they had first announced in 2018 that they were planning to make the island a free trade zone by 2020.
They also had a duty free programme there as early as 2011 in an effort to boost tourism.
Genuine question: so how do we fix nutrient deficiency for vast majority of people world-wide?

It's probably not a feasible solution to require these people eat healthy nutrient-rich foods due to economical and culture and personal choice reasons. Are vitamin supplements a feasible solution?
It’s literally funded and made by the NSA.

Dissidents and activists have been busted using Tor and there’s always a friendly government damage control agent ready to pop up (any forum, any time of day) to remind people that Tor couldn’t possibly be backdoored or owned, it was always some other type of thing they used in parallel construction.

Over-shilling is what clued next in. You don’t get this kind of response without a massive panopticon dispatching reputation managers. Why the heck would the NSA write NSA proof software? LOL.

EDIT: this is in reply to mapgrep and his crew:

Did I say I won't use Tor Browser? Is it really necessary to put words into my mouth to make your point? I've noticed this a lot with people who are very very lightning fast, almost unbelievably fast, to defend Tor on any forum or platform on the Internet. The speed at which it occurs, and the typical over-the-top, rude, and unnecessary attempts to make people seem to say things they 100% have not.

You should apologize. Obviously the NSA has broken Tor, they made it. Forget about current funding, where'd it originate?

And why does the Tor Project publish a list of exit nodes?
<<I am glad your convictions are not strongly held

I am looking for a reasonable rationale. Frankly, I do not understand some of the decisions people make.

That said, I am hesitating to play amateur psychologist online, but you may be projecting a little.
