Our goal is to make email encryption more usable and less niche, and not only for "situations with a specific need for extra security" - because people shouldn't have to think about which of their emails are and aren't security- or privacy-sensitive.

Could you imagine if individual users had to opt-in to using TLS? Nobody would use it. The large push for using TLS everywhere has helped internet security a lot. Enabling the use of OpenPGP everywhere would also help much more than serving the use case of "this key is on a yubikey in a safe", because almost nobody is going to do that anyway.
Yes. Yes you are.

Of course, we are responsible most directly for our own interactions with other people. Less so with other people's bad behavior.

You go down the other road, there's an indirect connection to every person on earth. Refuse to deal with everybody and anybody because of that, you're paralyzed.

I get it, that was a rhetorical question. Mine is not a rhetorical answer. It's hard enough, dealing decently with the people I come into contact with. Struggling to make every problem into my problem, there's very little gain in that.

Before anybody says I'm callous and unfeeling, well, you'd have to know what I do in my own community. But few bother to weight that, at all, when they're playing the blamethrowing game.
That's terrible operational security. You shouldn't be using the same email account in that scenario. Entering email credentials into an untrusted device will allow that device to send and receive emails, meaning it can read unencrypted emails. That's a major risk, considering that people might forget to encrypt them. Or they might simply follow other people's advice here and not use your advertised keys. Even granting untrusted devices access to encrypted emails pose a non-zero risk too because there are many ways it can go wrong.

Biden's timidity, or the Republican blocking of Ukraine aid?

House of Representatives holds off on Ukraine aid package − here's why the US has a lot at stake in supporting Ukraine

https://theconversation.com/house-of-representatives-holds-o...

Biden has asked Congress to approve another $95 billion in aid for Ukraine, Israel and other allies. About $60 billion of this would be spent on Ukraine.

While the Senate passed this foreign aid bill in February 2024, it is stalled in the House of Representatives. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson has not allowed a vote on the measure.

The PPS can be good (pi kernel support is stable), but one needs to be careful as some modules PPS signal has a great deal of instability.

Democrats hold the presidency, but not the congress. If congress decides do thwart the president on an issue, then there is very little the president can do. Basically the president has the power to veto something that congress wants to do, but has virtually no power to compel congress to do something it doesn't want to do.
> If I didn’t want people to encrypt mail to my pgp key I would simply not upload it to a public pgp key directory.

I have keys uploaded to PGP directories that I have in the past used for Git commits, and use today for linux package signing.

I've never used encrypted email, so it would be surprising for people to try use it to send email.

There's nothing obvious in casual observation of conspiracy theories that would point to a helpful bias towards resisting trends. The content and suggested emotional state of conspiracy theories often suck to the point of leading individuals to hell. We already have various forms of conservatism in all societies, and that looks far more like an appealing story of adding friction to change in a politically plural society.

In reality it will not be exploited like that by the big players. It will be used to create hits for even cheaper and then the labels will be looking for a puppet singer that will perform for the audience.

At first it will be kept secret, and then as it spread more and more among the industry, it will be more or less stated, but by that point people will be already accustomed.

When I use ETags, I'll generate the ETag value once (on startup), then cache and serve that value. When the resource changes, regenerate the ETag value.

Disagree. The fight with ISIS had a strong cyber dimension, with blockchain being a major funding source for them.

Cellphone tracking/hacking was also key, and multiplayer games were recruiting arenas.

Before that cyber played a key role in other conflicts, especially "cold" ones (re: Stuxnet).
>the web site is usually the superior way to see the content

Which is irrelevant, Substack was marketed and promoted itself as a newsletter focused service, not as "yet another blogging platform with social media aspirations".

Authors were promised to have control of their audience, to even take elsewhere if they wanted to move, as they'd be just email addresses subscribed to them.

Everything they've done since (in the last 1-2 years) is to move away from that into a tightly centralized social media platform.

>Substack doesn't charge more or less to users who choose to get emailed or not.

It makes subscribing optional if you want to follow someone (whereas before it was the only way), which means less newsletter subscribers, which means authors don't get to have their audience: Substack keeps the control. This also means less paid subscribers, even if nominally they can still go out of their way to subscribe and then get a paid tier.
The problem with The Line was not that it was a line, it was the scale. It's so ridiculously large it is akin to Altman's request for 20% (?) of the world's GDP. Not only it wasn't happening, it literally can't happen.

If you go to Google Earth (the app), it lets you see historical imagery from the site and for the past three or so years you can see continuous progress on digging out The Line; that alone is quite impressive on its own! But then again, digging it is only like 1% of it, and the easiest part. It's an impossible project.
Or the absolutely rampant corruption. Their entire way of doing business is to lie, cheat and steal, and then murder anyone who objects or tries to report on it.

Bluntly, I hope nobody comes to their aid when oil ends and their economies inevitably collapse - they can go back to bashing each other on the heads with rocks in the desert, and stop destroying the whole damned planet for a quick buck.

Potentially controversial opinion: nothing really changes for musicians / artists. There already is an abundance of fantastic (human-made) music for every genre or taste, even before AI arrived.

Artists' biggest challenges today aren't related to making music. They're related to marketing, building networks, building their brand, touring and physically playing shows, getting eyeballs on social media. For every artist that "makes it" there are 100s with equally good skills / product who don't b/c they fall short in any of the above.

So when AI lowers the entry barrier to allow millions to make music that before were limited by their skills, that's great! However those millions of people were never capable or even interested in marketing or selling their art in the first place, so the market competition to serious artists is quite limited.

TLDR: Music is and will be an overcrowded marketplace where brand matters a lot more than skill. AI helps with the skill but not with the brand.

So here's how Arch Linux package signing works:

1. You define a PGP key signature in the package metadata.

2. If you are a part of the Arch Linux project, the key will get installed in user's system as part of the archlinux-keyring package.

3. At package installation time, if your key is not already present, it will look it up on a keyserver. It will then prompt the user if they want to trust this key.

4. If it can't look up the key, it will reject package installation.

I see downthread that Debian works similarly, and also I've seen some people rely on this for publishing signed artifacts on github releases also.

I believe it is a fair assumption that 'simply asking' would entail all sorts of red tape the UnterGunthers simply weren't interested in; after all, Monum would want all sorts of assurances that the restorers wouldn't mess up things, insurance would have to be organized, assessments made &c (Which, don't get me wrong, are all not just reasonable demands, but really what any responsible authority SHOULD do in such cases.

I suspect that would simply take all the fun out of it. So, Monum's stance is definitely valid, as is, in this particular case, at least, UnterGunther's.

The first patents were not about innovation at all but essentially government guaranteed monopolies similar to guilds.

> 1. Patents usually involve a lot of research — and existed as a way to ensure that competition couldn't imitate your product without also making that investment, licensing it from you, etc. If there was no protection, they would immediately undercut you since they don't have investment costs to cover. Tech patents, however, are so broad and require so little actual material science that the "protect the investment" part doesn't add up.

Citation needed. I know of many patents that are side discoveries of R&D that was done anyway. It's a myth that others could easily undercut a company doing the research, the inertia of expertise of employees, processes etc. is typically much better at holding of the competition. None of the successful technology companies made their business by patenting. The example of pharma is often brought up, but it's actually a very good counter-example, when pharma companies first developed, it was the Swiss and German companies which dominated and there was very little (Germany) or no (Switzerland) patent protection for pharmaceuticals.

Patents almost never describe processes and technology with sufficient detail to reproduce them (in fact many companies will purposefully not patent those things they consider central to their business, to keep them secret) and are instead written so broad as to just create a moat to prevent any newcomers from entering.

Calling between WASM and JS really hasn't been slow in browsers since around 2018:

https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/10/calls-between-javascript-a...

It would be extremely surprising if calling overhead into JS to manipulate the DOM is noticeable in profiling instead of being dominated by the actual DOM manipulation (I have mainly experience with WebGL and WebGPU, where each call also goes through a JS shim, with a sometimes nontrivial amount of work happening in the JS shim, and the actual call overhead from WASM into JS is absolutely negligable compared to the overall cost, which is typically inside the WebGL and WebGPU implementation).

Also: if performance matters, don't use the DOM in the first place!

I mean theres a lot of like crap production music for film and Tv out there. I imagine like cheap reality tv shows will start using AI music. Maybe anime, which is always looking for ways to make its arduous production methods easier and cheaper because the industry is so volatile and not guarunteed to be profitable. But I think to make properly decent money as an artist you need to tour. This has been the model ever since streaming took hold. So yeah, its not going to be that profitable to be a faceless AI pumping out stuff into your spotify stream. I think the market will be in music for TV.
I feel like people tend to overthink in this regard. If SHA-256 hashing is good enough for GitHub's REST endpoints, it's good enough for me.

If you're implementing weak validation, then you might need to preprocess the payload before running it through the hash function. For example, if your payload is JSON and you want to make it format-agnostic, then you'll need to normalize the payload and then compute the hash.

In either case, the hashing algo probably doesn't matter as much.
No, I believe it was some kind of science paper.
Another application of satellites in formation is measure gravity fields:

> That brings us to GRACE—a backronym for gravity recovery and climate experiment—a pair of satellites that orbited the Earth at a fixed distance from each other. Or they would be fixed if the Earth’s gravity didn’t change in time and space. GRACE used a radar system to measure the distance between the two satellites to track those changes, providing information about the gravitational field it was traveling through.
