I work on software for augmented reality and distributed systems. That background is not directly applicable to quantum physics, but I like to think that I am highly trained at spotting logical errors.

> So yes, it "tunnels" through the timer field also, but the probability of interacting with the timer field is not zero. Of course, but it is less than one. Hence the measurement underestimates the proper time interval.

I am not a physicist, but the experiment does not seem convincing to me. The Larmor clock doesn’t measure a proper time as in spacetime distance between two events. Instead it measures the rotation of a dipole in an electromagnetic field. T

All of those will be around not because they are good, but because so many other things are built against their interfaces.

The application is using a proprietary client/server protocol, so it already lacks lacks any kind of interoperability. In this specific case, it's unclear whether the bug has direct security implications. The broken SHA-1 is used

Anecdotally I know of one very popular application that has a bug in their SHA-1 implementation causing it to effectively only perform a single round.

In the currently proposed revision, the law applies to anyone facilitating access to an internet-based service "unless the criminal use of the service is of insignificant importance". See the changes relative to the original draft

That is not the version of the law that is being voted on. The amended version is much broader, doing away with the restricted access condition, and now applies to all crimes rather than a specific list. But the worst part, the text has bee

On big projects, linking times are really the bottleneck. Sure, incremental linkers exist [1], but all of them tend to do O(n) work on every invocation. Source control software, even developed explicitly to scale [2], behaves the same way.
