This was my question exactly...

From what I understand, Tor is an anonymizing service for web browsing (and other web activities). I2P is an anonymizing layer above the regular internet. I.e., you can use Tor to view pages/use services on the regular internet, while with I2P you can only use services that are part of I2P. On the other hand, I2P is less vulnerable - it is fully decentralized & distributed, with everyone being an equal peer in the network, while Tor relies on exit nodes to function, and normal clients don't help the network at all.

I am not a lawyer, but note that the original article (describing an amicus brief filed by the EFF, which is essentially an argument submitted by a party not involved directly in the case) is talking about 5th amendment rights, not 4th amendment.

The 4th amendment covers search and seizure (the case of a locked file cabinet inside a home for which a proper search warrant has been obtained), while the brief is focused on the 5th amendment question--is providing a password testimonial? The key question is not whether the information on the laptop must be disclosed to the government (we assume the subpoena is proper and if the laptop were unencrypted, the government would have the right to use it at trial), but whether the act of providing the password demonstrates a key element of the crime: that the defendant had control over the laptop and can therefore be assumed to been aware of/responsible for the creation of its contents.

In other words, is providing the password a neutral fact--as in Hiibel vs. 6th Judicial District of Nevada, where the Supreme Court found a law requiring individuals to provide a name when stopped legally by law enforcement--or is it self-incriminatory?

The Supreme Court has ruled on similar questions in several instances. See http://volokh.com/posts/1197763604.shtml for a discussion from a law professor who specializes in 4th/5th amendment issues.
I am somewhat on the fence with this one.
If the police comes to your house with a warrant, they have the right to search your house.
You cannot actively stop them, but do you have to help them searching your place?
I.e. do you have to open the door or hand over the keys to the house? Or - maybe more to the point - show them where your hiding places are?

IANAL, but my gut reaction would be that on ethical grounds you do not have to help in the collection of evidence against you.
If the police cannot decrypt your drive that is their problem, not yours.
That would probably be the best defense. If the destruction was carried out as part of a regularly scheduled program instead of as a specific response to law enforcement's demand for the data, you might be alright.

Lots of companies automatically delete all email older than six months for this exact reason, actually.

There are several backup solutions (Arq, JungleDisk, etc) that will store your data on Amazon's S3 service. However, the restore process is fairly painful as it requires downloading potentially hundreds of GB which takes a long time. I'm aware of the hard drive service that Amazon offers, but AFAIK you're required to mail a drive to Amazon and they will put the data you want on it and mail it back. However, I've often thought that since Amazon also sells hard drives, they could skip a step and allow someone to purchase the disk, have Amazon can put the data on it, and mail it to the buyer. For people replacing a failed hard drive, it's likely that they will buy one from Amazon anyway, and this would save them a lot of time.

Illegal strong encryption was, in fact, the law for many years. It was changed only when it was realized that the lack of robust security was harming the emerging "e-commerce" markets. Certainly it wasn't due to a concern about 4th and 5th amendment rights.
I'm not sure about different namespaces for special methods. Python's object system is so self-referential and so transparent that it'd be surprising.

Go devs are of the opinion that what behaves like a function should be a function, with no exception. It's also the reason they don't do operator overloading, which I think is just dumb.
No you can't.

HTML is a Context Free Language (Type 2 in the Chomsky hierarchy) that is defined by a Context Free Grammar, and parsed by a stack machine.

Regular expressions can describe regular (Type 3) languages. They do not have a stack.

Note that there is a loop in the code, so it's not just regular expressions.

More specifically, this is the number of live people in space. I'd be curious to know how many dead people are in space as well (the ones who had their body's launched upon passing).
I would guess that the secret aircraft of today, likely as not don't have people in them.
AMD only released docs on the 2d side of things. 3D is still undocumented, AFAIK.

Does this mean that the words in the articles, and the grammar used therein will be checked for errors? Or that they put a new skin on their poorly written bullshit?
You're not necessarily wrong. You're just damning the article with faint praise. The point of the article wasn't "Do you want to start a business? Yes you do. Go start one now."

It's more "Do you want to start a business? Yes? Go do it! No? No sweat! Just make sure you're making yourself happy and not just toiling away to make someone else happy."

The ultimate theme behind this blog post is to make sure your life is about you and your relation to other people. Otherwise, you get trapped into believing a lot of shoulds: you should get a bachelor's degree, you should get married, you should work long hours for terrible salary, etc.

One could also say an encrypted hard drive is like the GPS location of a coffin containing a dead body. Can the authorities compel you to reveal the GPS coordinates of the body? If you deny any knowledge or reveal that you "forgot" the coordinates, could you be compelled to provide access to the evidence? What about GPS coordinates to a stash of drugs? At what point does revealing incriminating information become protected by the 5th amendment?
Encryption is not like a safe. In a safe, you close the door, lock it, and the contents remain unaffected. Cutting through the back of the safe would yield the same contents. In this way, safes are more like BIOS passwords. The password is written to the hard drive and the BIOS acts as a gatekeeper. However, there's no reason you couldn't use a BIOS designed to ignore the presence of a password.

If we were to design a physical analog to encryption, it would be more like a matter scrambler. You place your diamonds, jewels, insurance papers, etc. (or, in this case, incriminating evidence) onto a platform and enter a password. The contents of the platform are TRANSFORMED into a pile of pebbles, dirt, and dust which you sweep into a bag. The bag's contents are indistinguishable from anything else in your yard (Remember, GOOD encryption is indistinguishable from randomness as both encrypted data and random numbers do not compress well). The proper password will cause the matter scrambler to reproduce the valuables but otherwise will just yield more dirt, dust, and pebbles.

It is therefore an ACTIVE process to reproduce incriminating evidence in a case by decrypting data. One is not providing access to already existing evidence, one is PRODUCING it from pure garbage.

Advertising uses this not because it is "sexualized", but because men will buy toxic waste by the barrel if you draw nice titties on it.

This statement makes no sense. Associating sex with non-sexual things is the definition of sexualization.

And I know why advertisers do it, it's not rocket surgery to figure it out. Their motivation doesn't change the fact that the action itself objectifies and degrades women (and to a lesser extent, men).

Watch an advertiser sell SUVs to women: they have a big, hulking, strong look and are advertised as serving and protecting the kids. That is the masculine face of advertising.

You quote me stating that men are sexualized, and respond by explaining how men are sexualized? What's your point?
The correct title for this is "Lua/APR: Apache Portable Runtime binding for Lua". I'm pointing this out because I'm tired of seeing submission titles used to make a point instead of describing what's behind the link. This mightn't be a big deal for other people, but personally, I don't like having opinions[#] forced on me like this.

[#] The opinion here is that Lua needs a standard library. Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't, but I want to come to that conclusion myself, that's all.
As inhumane as the treatment of animals has been, you should see how we've treated each other. That being said, let's not question the importance of deaths that are relative to one's background or focus. Death should never be devalued no matter how "freak" or "accidental".

Not true. A properly encrypted disk can be opened in a few thousand or million years. The judge can just order a decryption specialist and find the defendant in contempt.

Unless you're saying it's about "how inconvenient" it is? Because there is no encryption on the planet that is 100% impossible to decrypt.

I am perhaps being a bit snarky, but I think it's a valid question. You pose it like disk encryption is impenetrable, which it is not.

Edit: normally I don't care about downvotes, but I would really like to know this time; why do you believe it not valid? I am interested in what you have to say.

I've never used I2P, but Tor also has hidden services, which can only be accessed through the network and do not require exit nodes. I imagine both Tor and I2P use similar routing schemes to achieve "anonymity".
http://www.torproject.org/docs/hidden-services.html.en

I am not too trusting of the architecture though, since there has been (at least) one significant practical break before. Also the hidden services are susceptible to DoS, despite the claims that to DoS one node you have to DoS the entire network.
While there are a finite number of defined tags in any particular version of the HTML specification, a parser is still supposed to be able to match start/end tags it doesn't recognize, to distinguish the case of malformed syntax from the case of correctly formed syntax that uses unrecognized tags.

I don't think this is necessary in HTML, which expects every unknown tag to be ignored regardless of nesting, unless you are planning to render the content using CSS or support scripting, which may expect the unknown element to be in the DOM or to be styleable, but even there historically different browsers tended to do different things to unknown tags.

The idea here though is that mobile devices will eventually become versatile enough to be used in these environments. My phone has an HDMI output and bluetooth capability, what, other than current usage patterns, is keeping Android/iOS from allowing you to plug in a monitor and hook up a keyboard to a phone? Hell, they are already doing it (albeit poorly): http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/US-EN/Consumer-Product-and...

The point is, I already carry around a phone in my pocket, and eventually, when I get into the office, I will hook it into my monitors/keyboard/mouse, and work away. The PC cannot keep up, and will eventually be replaced by this paradigm.
So you can't resume an instance? I only ask because some of my projects take a long time to import the initial seed data.
Toronto as testing community
Has anyone had any experience launching a product in Toronto?

Toronto's tech scene seems to be growing. At the customer level, it seems to be full of early adopters.
Facebook grew incredibly quickly in Toronto - I believe that the Toronto network in 2007 was among the biggest.

Does anyone have any experience building or launching a product to Torontonians? Can you compare that experience to launching in, say, SF or NY?

Cheers!
No, I don't know what you mean. Woz, Gates, and Zuck made names for themselves with good execution on the right idea at the right time.

While admirable, that's not exactly the definition of "creativity" in my books, especially not in the programming sense.

In fact, I would speculate that somewhere out there, there are .net DBA code monkeys doing more creative things to keep an aging insurance database infrastructure from collapsing than Zuckerberg did for facebook.
The only way the password itself can be self-incrimination is if it's something along the lines of "fraudrealestateisfun". The government said, "Fine, don't tell us the content of the password: enter the password so that we can access the contents of what's behind it."

People's arguments that you have an expectation of privacy are irrelevant: you have a genuine expectation of privacy in your home. If the state shows there's a compelling interest to enter your home (i.e. obtains a warrant), you can't stop them. Similarly, you can't stop them from decrypting your data. Well, you can, but you're going to suffer as a result.

Similarly, you don't have to show your hiding places. Suppose you had an encrypted folder structure and one of the folders was hidden to someone who doesn't understand how to see hidden folders. You don't have to say "there's a hidden folder", just like you don't have to say, "There's a false floor." Encryption isn't a 'hiding place': they've found the data.

Encryption is a locked door. The state wants to know what's behind it. Opening your front door to the police holding a warrant isn't self-incrimination (i.e. it in no way points to your guilt or innocence). Similarly, entering the password to your encrypted drive isn't self incrimination if the state has proved you're the sole possessor of the device.

Although the only way the password content can be incriminating is via the language of the password, the fact that a password works on a particular machine may be incriminating. This is the only line of argument that could work, for what it's worth, and none of these 'privacy' lines of argument. "Your honor, the state has no compelling basis for thinking my client had possession or knowledge of the drive in question. Compelling my client to enter a password on the chance it could unlock the files would prove that they did have possession or knowledge of the drive." &c. But once the state can show it's your encrypted data, it's game over. Fortunately, it's this "foregone conclusion" line of argument that the EFF actually pursues, and not the 'Privacy' line that seems to be popular in these replies.

There's a difference between (a) good management, (b) returns to scale, and (c) gains from specialization and division of labour. What you see most in large companies in advanced economies is (b) and (c); in so far as you get (a), I would argue much of it comes from applying specialization to management itself: doing the kind of strategic management that is not possible in small companies dominated by tactical concerns.
