Agreed, data not stored is more secure than data that's stored, but I stand by my point that data stored in such a way as to provide the minimal necessary access can be substantially more secure than data stored in such a way as to provide that access, plus additional back-door access for spooks.
My tone is fine.

While I appreciate enthusiasm for projects, enthusiasm without skill is a net loss for everyone working on the project, and thats what the author was proposing. Its a horrible idea and it hurts the entire community to suggest that inclusiveness increases productivity because it does not.

This is incredibly revisionist. There was no strong support for CRA in US at the time. Entire south switched its party affiliation after the vote, and many northern congressmen only voted after incredible arm-twisting by LBJ and executive branch. The senate faced 83 days of filibuster from opposing senators, and few of them stood and talked for 10+ hours to stop its passage. Only by forgetting the entire history of how the act came to be can one claim that their was strong support in entire country.

Oh yes, certainly -- It's not a matter of the roads being incapable of supporting large vehicles period, but simply that many of those roads are not as accommodating to large vehicles as those of American cities. Thus it would require much more operator care to successfully navigate with those large vehicles.

Additionally if you both double up and cut the workforce, chances are the two will be doubling up in another way too, i.e. both working on different tasks and claiming to keep an eye on eachother.

But really, you are going to lay off 90% of the sysadmins and require two different people involved to change a password?

What this shows is if anything how much you need a combination of good monitoring and enough people. And once one account is compromised you have a chance for the sysadmin to be using sock puppets for accountability actions.

Although they both improve your aerobic fitness, running does so to a much greater extent than cycling. I cycle a fair amount, and no matter how much I push in terms of speed, cycling doesn't really get me panting.

On the other hand, running for 40 seconds gets me huffing and puffing like a 70yr old 2-pack/day smoker. Is it just me, or is running much more aerobically intense than cycling? Yes, the post states you burn more calories running, but it appears it also has a dramatically larger aerobic benefit. Or so my experience tells me.

There's no inherent conflict between rich people having better stuff and equal rights. For better or for worse, the American belief on this subject is that opportunity to better one's economic situation should be equal, but that it's fair for quality of life to be dependent on some amount of success in taking these opportunities.

That aside, though, I think the point is that any reasonable person with kids will do whatever they can to bring them up in the best way possible, with whatever resources they have. Maybe the US public school system is poorly executed but well-intentioned; maybe it is not even that. It doesn't matter; it is what it is. There's no shame in not participating in it if you have a choice (participation is not what it's short on!). Maybe we will have amazing education for every US child one day, but who knows when or what form that will take, or what will drive it. Private school may be a luxury, but you don't have to be rich to home-school, it's a valid and attractive option for many parents in areas that are cheap to live in but have terrible schools.
A few hundred Tor nodes would be useless in trying to break anyone's anonymity.

With ~4k relays (entry/exits) and ~2k bridges (pure relays of encrypted connections) and only a few hundred hostile relays, the odds of an OP's (end-user's) connection's flowing through both a hostile entry node and a hostile exit node are infinitesimal.

Let's say you add 400 ORs to the network. Let's further assume no one in the privacy-conscious, some would say paranoid, Tor community notices this unexplained 10% spike in entry/exit nodes. Your odds of compromising any given Tor circuit (connection) are a compound probability: P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B). In this case: .1 * .1 = .01, or approximately 1%.

When you add to the fact that the network automatically tries to route to entry and exit nodes in different countries, the chances of compromising the network in this fashion are virtually nill.

Everyone in the Tor community has known this attack has been possible, which is why the network growth metrics are watched closely. If any shenanigans are detected, the authority is prepared to add a notion of OR trust to the directory file.

Well, not entirely fair. QEmu is open source.
A couple of years ago, I had a student who wanted to do a kind of MtG assistant for his master's thesis. It would have a database with the functionality of each card stored in a symbolic format, and it would use that for applications like giving you advice during play, with the possibility of implementing other applications in the future (once you have the functionality of cards encoded in a format easy to process by machines, you can do many interesting things).

I told him that it could be a great project and I would be happy to supervise it, but the first thing he needed to do was to ensure there would be no legal problems. So I told him to write to the WotC legal department. He wrote a nice email saying if it would be OK to do this, taking into account that it was not for profit, he would recognize all copyrights, not use illustrations (just raw data about the cards), etc.

They (politely, but clearly) said no.

This is probably something you should have reported to DHL before you shared this.

As for analysis of signatures, it would be interesting to see if you could compare male / female writing, and see if there was anything you could learn, to predict if the writing was by a man or woman. There is a list that you can download from the Library of Congress http://www.census.gov/genealogy/www/data/1990surnames/names_... for first male / female names.
Botnet scraper. Or maybe a zero day in tor that NSA might have discovered and is trying to exploit it .
600K to 1.2 Million is effectively double the traffic .
But what bothers me is that all of these are clients , if they were relays then that would make sense.But NSA has gotton more aggressive and out-front after the leaks though.

Ludwig Boltzmann was a very important scientist (or perhaps I should say that his scientific contributions were significant). However, if I recall correctly, his peers didn't agree with his theories and, I would assume, they wouldn't have called his theories scientific -seeing how they basically assumed atoms in a time when that was controversial.

So, I too consider that agreement from others isn't a prerequisite for being a scientist. I also agree that "making and testing falsifiable hypotheses" definitely qualifies as doing science.

However, perhaps that's not the only way to do science. In general, there is that whole set of criticisms on the limits of falsifiability (with Kuhn et al). In particular, I'm thinking of cases where arguably the technology isn't sufficiently advanced to perform the measurements necessary to directly test the hypotheses (e.g., how quantum physics progressed). Arguably those doing all the thought experiments, modeling, thinking through consequences of those hypotheses and comparing with what they could measure were doing science -though those weren't falsifiable hypotheses at the time.

So what I'm saying is that your requisite is sufficient but perhaps isn't necessary either.
>If anyone believes that you can totally lock down access to every system on your network from your trusted sysadmins and have 100% audibility and accountability you are unfortunately living in a fantasy land. NSA or not, this really isn't something that is 100% preventable.

A /huge/ part of managing systems is vetting the folks who must be completely trusted. As part of this, you want to reduce the number of people you trust 100%, but yeah, some still exist.

Those people you trust 100%? you must vet them carefully. You should not put some random contractor in that position. Clearly, as Regan would say, "mistakes were made" - and nobody seems to be taking responsibility.

Just keeping the secret data on a secured server that only a few, very highly vetted sysadmins had root access to, that carefully logged all requests for information (and set off a pager somewhere if too many unscheduled requests were made) would have solved the problem, assuming you didn't hire some random body shop to staff /those/ sysadmins.

I mean hell, I get paged sometimes because some fuckwit at one of my upstreams starts bouncing my packets that are traveling from san jose to sacramento through texas. Surely, someone could be woken up if someone starts accessing suspicious amounts of data at once.

This is part of the huge "who you know" factor in the valley; Generally speaking, you hire folks that your current folks know. Not only does this provide some technical validation, it also makes the cost of defection higher. (Of course, there are lots of downsides to that approach, too.)

But no matter how you do your vetting, you /must/ vet folks with root.

And you can (and should) reduce the number of folks with full root. Especially when there is sensitive data on hand. Give your contractors limited tools.
Uh huh. OK, firstly, I'm an engineer, not a "business-oriented type". Secondly, how many times do we read accounts of successful Y-Combinator founders saying that their biggest error was trying to code solutions at the start of their companies instead of getting an MVP out there? Even PG has said so about Viaweb. The harsh reality for engineers is that engineering isn't as important as we like to think it is when it comes to building the Next Big Thing. Bringing it back to Jobs and Wozniak, Jobs didn't need a brilliant engineer for the Apple I, merely a highly competent one, which makes Woz much easier to replace in the story than Jobs, who really was a one-of-a-kind business leader.

Thanks for posting this. Looks interesting. Something to play with my eldest daughter I think.

I ended up being the local card exchange at university for MTG which was uber-popular. Selling cards made me a fortune simply by enforcing scarcity on some of them and auctioning by email (I wrote an auction system in procmail and perl designed to maximise profit). Made £1320 profit in a year!

Edit: just found my old card database. Had 1540 cards at one point! Still have a box in the cupboard as well according to my wife.
Not to mention that Gatherer doesn't actually contain everything. For example:

Even without counting the two Collector's Edition print runs of the original core set, it's also missing the Anthologies printing, the FNM promo printing and the judge promo printing along with the version that appeared in the Coldsnap theme deck "Kjeldoran Cunning" (which kept the Ice Age art and expansion symbol but put it in the modern card frame).

Meanwhile, this has all of those printings listed:

Is it just me, or is everyone just focusing on the "declining loyalty to state" trend? What about the observation that future kids are totally NOT the "spy material" ?? They aren't exactly anonymous beings. They'll ALL have a HUGE internet presence and a compulsive habit to photograph and document/publish EVERYTHING. And there really is nothing you can do about that. They'll be born into that environment and they will be like that from birth. So none of the generation Z ppl would be happy with the "abandon your internet-self for all eternity!" clause of the ToS of intelligence agencies.

I disagree with that pretty strongly - if you have time, go and read the NYTimes link that I posted below.

Their point is that many children don't have that opportunity, since they're already well behind by the time that they start school. And a large part of the difference in school performance can be explained by differences in the students economic background and family life.

This doesn't square with the equal opportunity / everyone's equal that the US seems to be so fond of.
Relays haven't increased correspondingly, so it's not a straightforward correlation attack.

Here's a list of hypotheses:

1. The recent Russian censorship crackdown.

2. Botnets using Tor to search for vulnerable systems and to hide the C&C server.

3. US publicity following the recent NSA news events.

4. The Pirate Browser's use of Tor.

5. An OP (client) based vulnerability in the network.

If you have upstream collection on the backbones, then you might be able to fingerprint hidden services with staggered connection floods (watermarking.) Also, you may be able to do stream watermarking on the OP->Hidden Service traffic through the Tor cell delay side channel. That seems very possible.

Edit: Another possibility just occurred to me. You could use the OP clients to overload the relays you don't control, driving traffic to the attacker's hostile relays.

Something in my gut says that's not right though... Mostly because this is so very amateurish, with no slow ramp up of nodes, etc. Then again, the Freedom Host takedown wasn't exactly a model of subtlety either.

Botnets have started to use Tor in a major way for C&C. Of all the above, (2) seems most likely.

If someone really wants to find out, stand up a couple exit nodes on EC2 and watch the exit traffic pcap. That might be a bit dodgy in light of ECPA, but after all it's just metadata, right? ;)

lets be fair, they can still be stupid, achieveing what you have said, getting that kind of access is easy if you are the US govt/NSA/CIA. They have unlimited funds, near zero regulatory oversight and a huge fucking army backing them. So yes they can do this but they can still be stupid.

Now the clever guy is the guy that can get that access without access to the resources of the NSA.
