The 5th Amendment covers the right to not have to self-incriminate in the courtroom or anywhere. If you plead the 5th during a border search, however, it essentially means that you are likely to commit criminal activity but don't have to admit to it.

You are probably thinking more of the fourth amendment, which supposedly protects against unlawful search and seizure - including information about your whereabouts, etc.

Also, I probably wouldn't use a YouTube lawyer as my sole reference for doing that sort of thing, just FYI.

The Open Graphics Project only did 3D and VGA, this one also does 2D which is probably more useful for embedded applications.

It was also a more complicated architecture than it needed to be IMHO due to splitting functions between two FPGAs, one for the graphics bit and the other for the bus interface.

True. I despise the Norwegian winter. I'll get through it this year, but I'll likely find somewhere warmer to be next winter.

The summer in Norway on the other hand is magical. I didn't realize what a huge privilege is it to be able to chill/drink beer/barbecue in the park the whole evening and watch the sunset at 23/11PM (or the whole night in the north of Norway) until I lived in Thailand for a year (where the sun always goes down around 18-19).

Sure, it's always warm there, but I really missed the long summer nights. Living far away from the equator has both its advantages and disadvantages.

We still dont have a report on the kernel.org hack of 2011.

Many people say, calm down, its git they cant have inserted backdoors etc without messing up the git history/changelog/hashes/whatever. But what if, git was modified and backdoored previously to hide some objects/changes? How would such an attack work? Lets say you discover a problem in git, which allows you to omit changesets in its output. How would that work to backdoor the kernel?
This is a project I recently fleshed out to a full version from a proof of concept I've been running for a few months.

Basically, I was tired of typing

cd path/to/my/code
vim registration.erl

I wanted to just edit registration.erl from anywhere in a project's directory structure, so I wanted something short[1]. I wanted to be able to type

fed reg

From anywhere in the project and the command-line should just know. No tab-completion necessary.

Similarly, if I had to edit an image, I didn't want to have to open Gimp and navigate to the file, or just like the above example, navigate to the file and type "gimp filename". If I wanted to edit some/path/myimage.jpg, I'd rather just type

fed myim

And know that fed would find it, or ask me which file I mean if there's an ambiguity.

Anyway, I thought I'd share.

[1] My main problem with the name is just that the E and D keys are used by the same finger, Fes would have been superior in that regard, but I think Fed is just fine.

I guess he meant that until the latest goal, it's a fixed rendering pipeline gpu.

ps: instead of parallel compute units for vertex/pixel shader.

ps2: I'd like to see an open hardware RISC movement for GPU. I wish for a 'simple' parallel array of visual oriented floating point primitives, very small and regular, but very open so that people can write compilers and drivers with ease. As opposed to very potent but obscure gpu followed with crippled drivers. Just enough to get fast yet low power css/dom like systems (with little bonus like path rendering) to help lift the visual work away from RPI-class SoCs.
Me too. Never had an unfriendly one yet.

"Since SSL keys are mentioned, I assume SSL was used in communication. This means the claim that Lavabit did nothing to protect headers is false."

That is like saying that GMail is protecting the privacy of your headers, because GMail uses SSL.

"This is true, however body of the message may contain encrypted information, which is useless to observer"

Except that in the case of Lavabit, that encryption was just a side show since all the cryptographic operations were performed on the server.

"current technology of the email can not do what Lavabit tried to do if the adversary can do what the courts said it can do"

Except that someone who encrypts their message bodies before sending the message i.e. performing cryptographic operations locally leaves the server unable to fulfill demands for plaintexts.

">>> That is why PGP and S/MIME provide you with better security

No they do not, unless you can establish a peer-to-peer channel with your other party. In which case you're not using email anymore."

Really, you think I am not using email anymore if I am running my own personal mail server? It is also false to claim that one must have a peer-to-peer system to protect header information, or that PGP on its own is not enough. You could broadcast an encrypted message via Usenet. You could use anonymous remailers (e.g. "Type I" remailers, which use PGP). In all these cases, however, you need to perform your cryptographic operations locally.

"There are no "choices" that allow you to create secure email server in situation in which Lavabit found itself."

Sure there are: Ladar could have sold smartcards instead of selling cryptography as a service. There, one design decision that could have given his users meaningful security while still maintaining the convenience of webmail. To boost security even more, those smartcards could be coupled with a thumb drive that includes the necessary client software, so that Lavabit could not pull a Hushmail on its users.
The problem is that these are low probability high impact situation, you want 0 occurrences.

I mean wen we get to the US, we have our flight ticket info sent prior, we have to add more data because it's the US, the ESTA, last time I got harassed in Paris by the American Airline because I need to know the address I'm going to (I told her to check my file, I don't remember it), how long I knew my girlfriend and stuff, the NSA knows everything about me (I'm not an US citizen), the TSA checked me, the border police checked me out of the country. When I arrive in front of the CBP agent, my privacy had already been thoroughly shredded in the name of security, and my personal data including credit card is gone in the wild without any recourse or oversight, there is absolutely no need to physically harass people at the border.

Are you all assuming I'm a guy? Geez, there are really of lot of typical assumptions made here perhaps all based on pop/rock music (which I still think isn't so clearcut). I'm a trained classical pianist, which is usually something done by children well before the consideration of finding a mate is even part of the psyche and I insist that it took quite a matter to convince my parents that I was committed - not every classical musician comes from a middle class family and some of us had to work hard to achieve what we did. There is something extraordinary and powerful about playing and writing music, deeper in the way it affects me than anything else - and I love programming for the results-oriented buzz you get but when you play/write music? It's like getting right up close to the universe. This is a really personal issue for me and it's hard to think that people are looking at musicians on stage thinking it's a simple matter of fluffing their wings.

What specifically does this mean in the context of a border crossing? It's not like you're under arrest there.

Do you mean that you tell the USCIS official that you aren't going to say anything about where you traveled or why? Or where you live and work in the country?

Some examples of what you say to them would help us understand better what is going on in your interactions with the border agents.

----

Edit: Just saw this: They were clearly just fucking with someone who had the nerve to tell them that his travel plans inside and outside of the US were and are "none of their business".

It's somewhat less surprising that you stand out in a negative way when you tell the border agent who's asking about your travel plans that those plans are "none of their business".
While yes, it may not excel in beauty, when do applications developers really need to look at, or implement, wire-protocols? Embedding JSON inside an XML element seems to be one of the least horrible things you could encounter. Binary protocols or base64 encoded blobs or SDP are arguably worse.

As I mentioned in the other thread, if you want to make XMPP easier for application developers, things usually start with a well-defined API. If you want to, say, provide a simple API for doing publish-subscribe over XMPP, you don't really have to expose the intricacies of the XML-based wire-protocol. Most of the variables in this example (the addresses, the node identifier, the item identifier) can be exposed as simple attributes to a class representing a request, or as parameters to a function that performs the request.

However, normally, the payload format is still expressed as an embedded XML document, like Atom or the various payload formats for User Location, key exchange, etc., as defined in a number of XEPs.

Now, if your application just wants to be able to publish and/or subscribe to data easily expressible in JSON, why not just wrap that in a well-defined XML element, so that you can make your API as developer friendly as possible?

And, if you really want to go all the way, you could even do some server-side translation between XML and JSON payloads so that pure XMPP clients can still play without having to deal with JSON. There are some more advanced features in the XMPP Publish-Subscribe protocol to express such translations.
I'd love to see a site describing what your rights are while entering the US, both for citizens and non-citizens. Is there something like the "don't talk to police" video that describes what you're legally compelled to do or not do? Is there a guide covering how to secure your electronic devices, etc?

I'm confident enough of my rights when stopped by a cop inside the US, but from so many stories like this it really seems like we have no rights when crossing the border, citizen or not. If I knew what my rights actually were I'd feel better about asserting them.

From my reading of the court details (which might differ from yours), lavamail was not trying to make it easy for a particular user's data to be accessed. I have no problem with Lavamail, or Colin, providing access to a single user's data, if they have the ability to do that in a reasonable way.

The problem is that there seem to be two extreme worlds we could end up reaching.

1) The security forces can access all data, anywhere, anytime, freely and without limit.

2) The security forces can access no data at all, and become useless.

Both of these are a bad situation to end up in, but I would consider the second worse. Hopefully we can end up with a more sensible world, where the police can access data with a warrant and the proper authority.

While there are some current big cases, and big problems, it is important to remember there are large numbers of lower level people in the security forces, solving real crimes every day. They must not become over-powerful, or hobbled, by a few high profile cases.

The thing is, no one writes a story about the time that they exchanged twenty words with the border agent, and then went on their way. Why would they? It's not interesting and it's not news.

The only stories that tend to get written are the extraordinary ones. Unfortunately, it's unlikely that a border official is going to have the opportunity to do something "extraordinary" for someone unless he saves a life with the Heimlich or something like that.

So the "I HAD A HORRIBLE TIME AT THE BORDER!" are the ones that tend to get written up and passed around. No one writes up the hundreds of millions of routine, boring border crossings.
> What you are really asking for is: "I believe that people should have the ability to engage total privacy through any means of communication they so choose."

No. What he's really asking for is "I believe that people should have the ability to engage total privacy on the main means of communication of our age."

I agree, up to a point. Remember that lavabit had already complied with targeted access requests. He objected to the rooting of his service to enable a mass surveillance dragnet. Are you Ok with that specifically?
This is a very poor analogy. The UN's role in Haiti was in no way analgous to a doctor "operating" on the country.

The UN did not adequately manage the waste products from their own mission. This camp in Mirablais dumped their waste into the nearest waterway. The CDC has confirmed that this was the source of the cholera epidemic.[0] When soldiers at the camp began showing cholera symptoms, the UN continued to pump sewage into the river.

By contrast, considering the presence of pipes pouring sewage
from the MINUSTAH camp to the stream, the rapid dissemination
of the disease in Meille and downstream, and the probable
contamination of prisoners by the stream water, we believe that
Meille River acted as the vector of cholera during the first
days of the epidemic by carrying sufficient concentrations of
the bacterium to induce cholera in persons who drank it.

Unlike a patient who recovers from a successful surgical procedure, it's difficult to make the case that the UN improved the situation in Haiti.[1]

The Ethics of Autonomous Cars
That's the point I'm not sure. COnsidering the fact that the biggest innovation the big german manufacturers had in last couple of years were new assisstant systems, I highly doubt they are in any position to actually built usable electric cars. The notable exception being BMW. And even they are far behind Tesla for now and had to fight considerable internal resistance to get the i3 project running.

I highly assume they are ready for some tough times if they don't prepare for a changed market. Exports to the US and Asia won't save them forever. And once the infrastructure for EVs is in place it will become practical to drive EVs. I only hope for the German economy that car manufacturers learned the lessons from former German camera and TV set manufacturers.
