The whole encrypted internet relies on a chain of trust for certs, and the public keys are already publicly available for every client to validate a servers keys and generate a NEW session encryption key (handshake). Looks like this project is essentially the same as running a MITM on yourself. It's intended to be setup on your own server, so you can generate and install your own certs to re-encrypt all traffic between YOUR server and client (i.e. you take ownership of the last leg in the chain of trust between your server and client). The website simply views your server as the only terminating client.
This is why it's recommended to use a client VPN on gateways you don't own, as MITM software can be added to any server to operate the same way (though they need to obtain the private keys of certs your browser already trusts, or silently install new ones to prevent your clients from alerting you).
I've actually had this question for a while regarding the JWST and newly discovered distant galaxies being stated as 13+ billion years old — isn't our estimation of their age based on the distance the light has traveled (red shifted) from emission? If so, wouldn't that mean that the 13+ billion year old galaxy's would actually be much younger. e.g. the light could've been emitted 10 billion years ago, but 3 billion light years of additional space has grown between us since then.
My understanding is that this is dependent on hubble's law, and we do not know the exact rate of expansion now or in the past, but stating an object is 13+ billion years old without that knowledge seems... Unscientific.
Not at all. It's a test to discern journalistic integrity of the writer/publication; not whether or not the headline is true/false.
Fake news uses loaded (emotionally charged) words and tends to assert its conclusions as though they are irrefutable facts; placing its own biases front and center. Real journalism is more like real science, in that it uses more matter-of-fact wording and avoids broad or concrete assertions beyond the scope of the underlying information — as no amount of observation or evidence can ever achieve a 100% certainty of fact or remove all possibility of bias.
Your comment indicates you do not understand the difference between the two.
Has it even been proven that insects retain “memories” as we know them? The question always leads back to 1 of 2 options. 1) insects are biological robots and their “instinct” is akin to a program executing code based on the I/O of their senses, or 2) the information required to perform their “instinctual” actions is carried genetically.
Option 1 has significant implications for humanity; are we just more complex machines who believe we’re different (due to a complexity beyond our understanding), but are ultimately just deterministically executing code like a spider? Are we genetically/chemically pre-determined to learn, think, feel and decay the way we do based on the I/O of our lives, and everything we’ve ever done would be repeated identically if we were rebooted and exposed to the exact same I/O (down to the planck unit).
Option 2 indicates more of an inherent “free will”… but even then, are the memories just a more complex form of input, but still inescapably deterministic.
Personally, I believe in determinism — that another universe which started in the EXACT same way (down to the most miniscule detail), exposed to the exact sane external forces (if any) would lead through the EXACT same events to the EXACT same end.
I came across a standard notes blog recently about how they “migrated” to a single codebase by relegating RN to render a single component of their web view, which is the same view that’s rendered in their desktop app and website, using a native “DeviceInterface” wrapper for each OS.
Sounded like a preferable approach to dealing with the complexity and limitations of RN and multi-platform. I wonder why more teams haven’t gone with this type of approach…
Corporations promoted offshoring/outsourcing specifically to move their most pollutant/dangerous processes to the developing world — out of reach from the threat of western democracy and it’s environmental/labor regulations.
Using per capita production is a whataboutism psychological warfare tactic to derail climate/emissions discussions and point the finger at China etc, even though the developed world has always been responsible for the majority of the demand, and “embodied” energy/emissions.
“Shake to undo” also doesn’t work more often than it does. You’d assume an OS-specific keyboard interaction would work anywhere there’s text input, but no!
This is the entire reason behind so many corporations and elites pushing the “back to work” narrative. To mitigate the hundreds of billions in loses they face with commercial real estate.
Nice. I’m guessing that’ll barely cover a years worth of filtration (which they won’t ever spend it on anyway). What about the next 100 years? Let them profit because oligarchy?
The government forms policy around capital [0]. Only when popular opinion “aligns” with capital does it succeed. This is the same everywhere, just to varying degrees. Either way, civilization as we know it is wholly reliant on fossil fuels so the majority will never agree to the degree of sacrifices required to prevent disaster.
We’re ultimately doomed to “bandaid the broken arm” until ecosystems collapse and we have no choice; forcing everyone still alive to suffer significantly worse consequences as a result.
It was always obvious this would be the result, because spez is a manchild narcissist, thus incapable of understanding he is unfit for leadership… Though I doubt most of Reddit’s senior management is any better, given the way they’ve completely failed to understand their value proposition (or lack there of).
One of the core problems with nuclear is the size and scale of risk posed by cost cutting and neglect over its lifetime, especially the waste. People neither trust for-profit enterprises or present/future governments with that sort of responsibility (and with empirically justifiable reasons). I’m aware newer models are stated to be significantly safer, but assurances mean little when these institutions have repeatedly lied and failed in the past.
Either way, US carriers are probably one of the safest places for nuclear, as they’re mission critical for the life of the carrier and most likely to receive the utmost care… Plus the US has a long history of rubber stamping virtually unlimited funds to solve any military problem, whether the people approve or not. The handling of the waste is still a major concern, but what about the consequences of a torpedo compromising the reactor in warfare?
