I'm sure it is, but the issue is more complex than that. How much data is stored on each person? How many hoops does an individual analyst have to jump through, if any, to access that information for an individual? Is it stored in an e

>Why bother with employees - just go give money to intel to do this. Risk of refusal. Risk of intentional or unintentional leaks.

That's not what he was saying. Yes, it would of course be a good idea to try to hide the malware implants from tools like Little Snitch. It's just that the method they propose of going about it is really dumb. What tptacek is sa

Eh, years in a federal jail cell seems like it's not worth even $1 billion to me. And they made a lot less than that.

I don't think it's flag-worthy because it absolutely could be true. It's not like anything here is that difficult to believe given previous insider reports from Uber. None of the claims here are that absurd. But, yes, it coul

Their non-mobile quality seems to be pretty high as far as I can tell, but, yeah, I feel like he'd have to agree their iOS app is the definition of clowntown.

Should be pretty easy to fix. Just HMAC (or just concatenate pepper and hash, honestly) the phone number and use that as the identifier.

Now I'd like to know how the French word for "shampoo" (the noun) came to be "le shampooing".

True, but I feel like if they wanted to ensure their death, they could've just wiped them with the same rag after Kim was confirmed to be exposed. It seems they just let them go, so I guess they didn't care either one way or the o

And were any of these actually in positions of power to know definitively whether or not extermination programs existed (including ones not at their local camp)? Also, how about Einsatzgruppen? Are there witnesses claiming they didn't

Trump is a lot of things, but he isn't really anti-LGBT.

This is a translation of the original French. The translation was done within the past 50 years, I think.

That's true, the MTurk questions he asked are very similar. It could maybe be coincidental, since that's basically the default things you'd ask someone when trying to understand pain points and product ideas, but I do see you

"Stole" seems like a big stretch. It seems just as likely he's had this idea for a while, and registered just to check out his soon-to-be competition.

It's straightforward, it's not trying to shill Cloudflare products too much, it's not self-congratulatory, and it's told from the chronological first-person perspective of an engineer trying to debug a protocol issue a

They're marketed towards casual users but Discord is probably the best chat and collaboration software I've used so far. I definitely prefer it to Slack for professional-type stuff. You can use Discord any want you want. If you jo

That was for for non-citizens. Big difference from Trump's implication during the election that Muslim citizens are keeping their mouths shut and not reporting terrorists. Trump's previously proposed Muslim registry covers Muslims

Very false equivalence.

I doubt Google or any other SV corporation would ever agree to help with a Muslim registry. Even if somehow the top leadership of such a company were to agree (which I doubt), you'd see defections, sabotage, and heavy leaks almost imme

How is Google to blame for the rise of extreme inequality, authoritarianism, intolerance, or Trump? They didn't "ride" anything.

True, one does not imply the other, so "because" is wrong. I meant to say that "Russia (presumably) retaliated because the US does it too." Geopolitical inevitabilities aside, though, there is plenty of evidence for both

Could stem cell therapy be used to potentially improve existing muscular or neurological connections in normally functioning individuals? Kind of like a whole-body neurotropic.

Really depends. CPU mining is like trying to mine a diamond with a toothpick and will only get worse. If your machine isn't above at least some threshold (unless you have a massive farm of them), you're really just wasting CPU cyc

Let's see what happens in 30 days, then. My hopes are not high. Also, if this really were just to reduce investigative burden, why not halt all refugees from all countries for 30 days?

Or, more likely, both things are true (you know what he meant when he said "the ones") because intelligence agencies of superpowers are constantly trying to influence geopolitics in their government's favor.

That's true, they should all be treated with the same amount of contempt. I think making this website is one of the few good things he's done in a while. Shkreli is somewhat unique in terms of how much of an attention hog and brag
