Storj has 2 ways to upload and download data:

1. The native Storj "uplink" command. Using this interface, a Go utility called uplink is run on the local client machine. It contacts a Satellite Node (the non-decentralized aspect of Storj) to retrieve a list of Storage Nodes that will accept the upload, then the file is split up and encrypted by the local uplink client code and sent to Storage Nodes recommended by the Satellite Node. In this case, the Satellite Node knows about the various pieces making up a file, the Storage Nodes have encrypted pieces of the file (but do not know how they relate to each other), and neither the Satellite Node nor the Storage Nodes could reconstruct the original file, even if working together, because the encryption key is stored on the local client machine only.

2. There is an S3 Gateway that gives Storj an S3-compatible interface. To use this, a Storj user would register a user account on the S3 Gateway, giving them an access key (login name) and secret key (password). When files are uploaded using the S3 Gateway, the access key and secret key are used to validate that the user has access to the specified bucket but there is no encryption happening. When data is received on the S3 Gateway, the Gateway uses the uplink technology to send split and encrypt the file and send the pieces to Storage Nodes. When a file is retrieved using the S3 Gateway, the Gateway does the reverse and sends the original, unencrypted file back to the S3 client.

Storj customers using the Storj network with the native Storj uplink client should have nothing to worry about as long as their local Storj key isn't disclosed.

For Storj customers using the S3 Gateway, it seems to me that by using data stored on the S3 Gateway, authorities could reconstruct files that were uploaded.

For HashBackup (I'm the author), both interfaces are supported, though the S3 interface is recommended. Since HashBackup encrypts everything locally before doing any uploads, backups stored on Storj using either interface cannot be reconstructed without a copy of the HB backup key, which is only stored on the local client machine, is not part of the backup data, and is never uploaded anywhere.
>I think you're mixing up what "freedom" is in regards to open source.

I don't talk about opensource or any license, i talk about that when i pay for a service i can host any code i created for whatever use it is.

But talking about licenses (since you don't think it's one of the freedom's) that's exactly what definition of opensource means:

https://opensource.org/osd

>6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor

The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.
That's what I did some 23 years ago. Back then the pay discrepancy wasn’t as large as today. I started looking for positions in Canada in the last five years and have concluded that I can’t afford an approximately 50% pay cut, or to live in the big cities with ridiculous housing prices.
That's like Canadians/Mexicans objecting to be called American when they do live in North America.

I've not heard of Scots objecting to the use of Britain/British, but they (and the Welsh) would most definitely complain (and rightly so) if anyone referred to them as English.

> It's unfortunate that there's a signature algorithm and a key format with the same name, because that definitely leads to confusion in cases like this.

Thanks for the clarification, but from the end user's perspective it's all the same in the end?

It translates to "I have an SSH keypair that was generated using RSA as the algorithm and I was able to SSH into my servers when using OpenSSH vX.X.X and now after updating OpenSSH to a newer version I can no longer SSH into the same servers.". In the end it used to work and now it doesn't and the solution is to pick a different algorithm such as Ed25519 or re-configure your OpenSSH client to continue allowing RSA even though the creators of OpenSSH have deprecated it by default.

I have found IODD 2531 (there are likely others) to be super-useful for that sort of a thing.

It presents an ISO (using the rocker on the side as a selector) from its HDD as a bootable CDROM target, and still exposes the HDD/SSD as a separate target.

So, it is possible to boot what is an RO OS image, and use the HDD/SSD target as an overlay, but because it is not flash memory, the wear issue is far less of a problem.

And, since it is presenting ISO images as boot targets, it is possible to (relatively) easily test upgrades while keeping the overlays separate.

In the more optimistic case, you would need an independent and irreverent labor union with a lot of buy-in and pretense to try to call the shots, in order to do that. In the less optimistic case you would need a social revolution. It's generally more the structure of companies that creates these situations than the individual composition of management.

I’ve been trying to get access to academic tools and data to research my own genetic condition and I’ve been required to pledge allegiance to anti-racism more than once. Basically if I stumble on something that could be considered racist then I guess it’s a breach of terms.

I’m not suggesting they these numbers are in contradiction.

I believe they are actually measuring any time enrollment in that period. Otherwise the statistic seems of little value.

On time high school graduation is achieved by around 86% of the population. This surely accounts for much of the difference.

> That doesn't mean that people in Italian hospitals having thermometers break in the mouth (or other orifices) was "not uncommon"

As I've said, I'm familiar with the specificity of Italian hospitals, and I'm saying to you it was not uncommon.

Does not mean very often, it means "something every person working in healthcare has been trained for, because it happens (happened) more often than you might think".

Especially if you think about the fact that I've already specified that they simply broke, not that "they broke in people's mouth" all the times.

> Let's say that a hospital has 100 beds and average stay is one week

Let's say that the average Italian hospital in big cities has hundreds of beds, at the times of the ban on mercury Rome had ~6 beds every 1,000 residents, US had 2.7 of them.

Let's also add that in Italian hospitals you don't pay for the bed.

My mom stayed in hospital for 6 months when she had tuberculosis.

Many of the patients in the same ward staid on average for a year.

That's per week here, probably more than that.

Centralized app itself doesn't solve the problem. In my city after a short happy period we're back to crappy taxis like you describe. Mostly because the biggest app (Bolt) doesn't care.

Agreed. Just a nitpick, when I think of libertarian absolutists, I don't necessarily think about Adam Smith. I haven't read "Wealth of Nations", but I believe he was much more reasonable than an Ayn Rand for example.

It probably won’t help with native dependencies on the web. I’ve done a few projects that were android/iOS and then later on we added react-native-web support.

The best way is to go through your package.json dependencies one by one, figure out which support web and which don’t, then go into your project and make an empty component (eg: file.web.js) for any component that doesn’t work on the web. Once you have your app up and running on the web (even with a ton of “blank” web components), start the work of finding web equivalents for the missing functionality. Be diligent that the props for the native component and web component are the same or at least compatible, so that the component calling the now web compatible component needs no changes.

In my experience it’s super important to keep “platform specific” code isolated into its own component. General layout and the skeleton of your app should remain cross platform. In-line use of Platform.OS should be kept to a minimum.

I'm also not sure. I think it's an interesting point that you bring up.

My comment on value is mainly one of "all or nothing". I think a manual typing at the edge is probably sufficient for most people.

That said, you could implement all of your forms and events as structs or schemas and rig up a piece of the dev process to convert them into types. I think many in Elixir would view it as overkill so it hasn't been done afaik. But I also think it could be implemented very easily and then you'd have end to end typing.

Also started (paid office work) at 15. In 95. And I'm still obsessed with never forgetting anything. Long after the dopamine of solving a problem and moving on to the next, you go back and look at code and think: This was genius. How does this even work? How did I come up with it and how was my brain working? Much of my old code looks like brainfuck to me. Whenever I don't have anything better to do I pry it open and learn how it worked again. Then suddenly I grasp it and know I'm still good.

I never did it for anything other than solving puzzles for fun, and because being a musician doesn't pay the bills. But the joy of code and music are both more about keeping your brain in shape than anything else.
Well that just moves the question to another layer doesn't it? Why do the students and benefactors push this view? Because they are taught thus by professors, closing the circle?

Personally I think the answer is anti-discrimination legislation. To be precise, the chilling effects of it. If someone goes against the "woke" it may not be illegal itself, but it means everything they do will be subject to more scrutiny and they risk being judged more severely for the same misstep. Thus anti-discrimination legislation, I conjecture, gradually select the woke to the top of the elite.

As a source format for their delivery platform, yes.

So far, I haven't seen any evidence that the readers or apps will be getting native ePub capabilities.

Even then, ePubs sent to your own account still are treated as second-class books. Most importantly, they are not rendered in the "enhanced typesetting" engine, while Amazon-bought books (often likely from the same source ePub) do get that.

It's really hard to interpret this as anything other than making it intentionally hard/annoying to import DRM-free purchases from third-party bookstores.

>more than 11 million, there have been 13,164 cases throughout the entire pandemic, and 264 deaths

Given covid has proved really infectious but often mild, those numbers just say they have terrible testing. Probably more like 50%+ of the population have had it but not been diagnosed. In the UK they figure 70%+ and we have imperfect testing too.

Deaths are typically calculated as dying within 30 days of a positive test so no testing => no official covid deaths.

The recording shown on TV is a German Production, but the sketch itself originates from British theater and later TV. The origin story is even somewhat interesting. Seems there is not one, but two people who are involved and mainly known for this little sketch. The original author, and the comedian who made it famous around Europe and is the actor from the recording. And in some way it also kinda sad, as it seems to be the only work for which they are now remembered.

To me the real lesson has been one that's repeatedly been driven home over the last 7 or 8 years - rich people are just regular people with more money. They like to push some myths about ability or some other moral justification about why they deserve more toys than the other boys and girls. The reality is they might have a bit more ability than most, but not 100X+ more.
