That can't be! DDG has gotten really good. I'm only about 5% !g. S.O. and wiki come up reliably too. Any examples?

Why this constant painful guessing game? Why don't they just tell you what they detected you did wrong? What portion of our society is broken that does not allow for this?

I don't remember many wars being stopped by soldiers, but I do remember many instances of shocking imagery causing change. Maybe the problem could be mitigated by requiring cameras.

It's all client-side, it's not what you think, it's more a light scraping-on-the-go type product than a permanent enterprise solution. Good for what it does tho.

Catalytic converters. The exhaust is cleaned at the engine before it goes through the tailpipe.

I wonder what they see that makes it suspicious. Carbon monoxide is not easy to murder with and there are a host of straightforward reasons why someone in their car would die from it. Was there a tube found going from the tailpipe into a wi

Take a queue from politicians. Use the opportunity to tell one of your stories/talking points. You should have at least 3 fun/informative stories about yourself/life/experience prepared. Make sure not to answer the quest

If the government secretly forces Network Solutions to provide all their certificates can they read all encrypted traffic (that is secured by them)?

Zoom has very little defensible tech, it's more about packaging/marketing. Cloudflare is very difficult to duplicate.

"The S&P 500 (SPX), the broad measure of stocks of the 500 largest US companies, is up 29% since Trump took office in January 2017. But they were up 46% during the same 645 day period at the start of President Barack Obama's t

The article seems to have missed the correct conclusion: we calculate inflation wrong. If Toblerone gives you less chocolate for the same price, that doesn't mean some new thing called "shrinkflation" now exists, that means t

Add to that that it's in no carrier's interest to have agreements and for them all to "over" bill their customers. Only when one carrier breaks the unspoken agreement (and starts taking customers) do others have to acqui

Yes that's right. Normally for signatures you would do the final encryption with the receiver's public key creating the same issue as solution #1, but in this case you would use the symmetric key: 1. Hash message 2. Encrypt hash u

I think the issue there is it would be an anonymous chat room - how would you know who sent the message?

They probably mean a single symmetric key shared between all. And private is not mean that only one person knows a thing. Quite the opposite. If the entire planet minus 1 person knows something, that's a form of private as well. Either

Really nice article. In solution #2, when an encrypted message is received, does the receiver have to lookup the sender's specific key from a list that they maintain? In other words, does every member have a list of every other member&

I thought mesh is supposed to involve hopping from neighbor to neighbor - not everyone directly connected to an ISP. What is the difference then besides that it is volunteer-run with donated bandwidth?
415.
by thinkloop 7y ago
I thought mesh networks were peer-to-peer? If people's connections to the internet are single pre-determined nodes, isn't that more like mini ISPs?

Is the primary role of the Fed in this case as an arbiter for disagreements? Why can't the banks achieve the same directly between each other using an agreed upon protocol?
