Mozilla could also simply become un-captured, and instead of a giant paycheck machine for managers and executives, it could go back to being an association of developers with a common interest. Supported by individual donations.
The budget would be smaller, but the output might increase in quality. And the number of new lines of code that are just feature thrash could potentially be reduced.
Of course it's fragile. That's the point.
No, you're not comprehending.
A fragile hash is almost useless. For example, you hash an image, then upload it somewhere. Somebody else saves the file, and without intentionally modifying it, uploads it to social media. Somebody checks the hash, and it's different, because all the social media sites re-encode the images to save bits.
Whereas, a more sophisticated perceptual hash would identify the plagiarism.
This is the type of argument made by someone who has a vested interest in tampering with evidence.
If you're gonna be an asshole, it helps not to also be a moron at the same time.
If we're a "failed" state, then most the world is a failed state.
He referred to the direction the US is heading, and fast. See Argentina for a precedent, once one of wealthiest countries, now it has a president who waves a chainsaw around on stage.
The federal government is headed for bankruptcy. Interest repayments are $1trillion/year now, more than defence spending. In ten years, the debt will double, with interest costing more than healthcare or pensions. When the bread runs out, the mobs get angry.
Meanwhile, democratic norms are being undermined, and corruption is rampant. The clear message is that anything goes. Pardons for sale. Even murderers are protected. Another civil war is no longer unimaginable.
Amusing. Immediately bumped to +5 by the same bunch of knuckleheads that would condemn anyone pointing out that public sector unions are the reason for this clown world nonsense as a Nazi.
911 operators make above median wage in most states. In Louisiana, $45,373 compared to $31,138 median (individual). Median household is $60,756.
The E911 system has included location data since... well since you don't know that, and you're on a website for nerds, since before you were born. If you were older, hackers getting arrested for "stealing" E911 related documents was kindof a big thing that everybody talked about. For various reasons.
There's a few books about it that nerds all read.
Now watch the "fired" officers get hired the next day in another jurisdiction.
Well, it can't grow in the same places, but bamboo into paper is already a thing. And it grows quite quickly in the appropriate environment.
This isn't about them building nukes, it's about letting more US ships visit their ports, and removing an annoyance from the military cooperation.
When the US first started operating the F-35 and did a large scale fly-by just outside North Korean airspace, to announce it afterwards and scare the North Koreans, the Japanese F-35's were right there flying with them. Any regional conflict they're likely to be fighting with the US, regardless of how their laws require them to phrase it. Increasing cooperation benefits them, and port visits bring in money.
None of that has anything to do with the reliability of the US nuclear shield, or the depth of our commitment to Japan.
Don't be a moron who acts like there's only one issue in the world.
Unlikely that it would require withdrawing from the NPT, because the US would likely give them permission and nobody cares what France thinks.
The US is the only country with a large stockpile that's following the monitoring rules, so what can they say? The answer is, "When your compliance is up to date we'll be ready to review your complaint."
Nobody on slashdot is going to click some bullshit link. We're either smart enough to do research from reliable sources, and/or cynical enough to know links will always be bullshit. And seriously... a site called "less wrong?" That's like if you're arguing about programming, and I'm an embedded engineer, so you quote a For Dummies book.
And... lurn yus sum histery. You didn't even understand what I said yet, how can you argue? And you don't know what your counter-argument is, you just think somebody else might have counter-argument. But you can't express it. Because you don't know.
Not-see go home.
Nope, you failed even worse by not being able to match the pattern you actually used, and instead just regurgitated a known-true one.
if the game is rigged
If?
20-something poor students
20-something poor students are literally bathed in rigging the instant they experience initial contact with post-secondary education in the US. They know, with metaphysical certitude, that rigging runs their world, and whatever goes on a polymarket is but the least of it. Only the clinically naïve somehow miss this.
