I have a hard time believing that a particular encryption will remain unbreakable, quantum computers or not. At the moment, we have Shor's algorithm for factoring numbers on QCs, so we should avoid relying on the hardness of factorization. How can we be sure that there won't be new algorithms in the future that break the current "post-quantum" encryption?

During my advanced math studies, I only took a rather introductory course on encryption, including stuff like Galois fields and elliptic curves. I recall my professor saying that none of the current encryption methods (besides something like the one-time pad) are proven to be safe; we just don't know any efficient methods of breaking them at the moment.

I never thought I'd see the day.

The Opera team was all fired or laid off or something in this big drama. So the old Opera is now called Vivaldi. . It's just a skin of Chrome, like everything is these days. Eh, I use it. It's better than the others.

It's easy to keep making new highs when the value of USD itself is in a free fall. Look at USD vs. EUR charts, for example.

Why not? It's originally a quotient of two numbers multiplied by 100, just like any other percentage.

"Originally, IQ was a score obtained by dividing a person's mental age score, obtained by administering an intelligence test, by the person's chronological age, both expressed in terms of years and months. The resulting fraction (quotient) was multiplied by 100 to obtain the IQ score." https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...

What I don't get is why the Left isn't cheering wildly. The USA is the most racist warmongering genocide-in-Gaza-supporting country in the world. I mean, imagine sending C-17s full of machetes to the Hutu in Rwanda, the US sent bombs to Israel.

The US is ethnic cleansing with ICE.

"If we strike first and our victim dares to fight back, then weâ(TM)re the ones being attacked." The United States is a brutal and immoral actor in the world and has been longer than any of us have been alive. To wave the flag at a pro-immigrant rally would be to somehow suggest that the country the flag represents is worth celebrating, and it is not. Left-wing protestors donâ(TM)t carry American flags because carrying the American flag is a symbol of support for the United States of America, its government and its actions, of condoning its project in whole or in part, and left-wing people (like me) canâ(TM)t do that because the United States is a brutal and immoral actor in the world and has been longer than any of us have been alive. To wave the flag at a pro-immigrant rally would be to somehow suggest that the country the flag represents is worth celebrating, and it is not. Itâ(TM)s not for many reasons, the most direct and salient of which is that no country on earth has caused more wanton destruction, cruelty, and degradation of freedom and democracy Americans are the least educated and knowledgeable of foreign affairs, languages, and disparate cultures, societies, and social norms among all Westernized countries and the least exposed universally.

America is based on demonizing whole groups of people (migrants, Muslims, independent women, LGBTQP people).

This is the basis for all your horrible politics and terrible policies.

Now TV will be an endless string of sequals and reboots for 70 year old franchises too, just like Movies. Great. I can hardly wait.

I chuckled at the headline too. I came here to ask "indeed?" indeed

Why did we bomb Iran? That wasn't in our interests. It was in Israel's interests. Jews control us and can even overrule Trump. Incredible. It's AIPAC, an illegal unregistered foreign agent, that does it.

agreed. this is five year old temper tantrum type serious

You don't understand standing up for your principles even though it's inconvenient? I pity you.

Confiscate foreign investment? Already happened. USA robbed Russias bank accounts of 300 billion dollars. The whole world stood up and took notice. Why do you think there is such a push for BRICS? Which will have its own currency that the Americans can't touch.

Thank you for putting this so clearly. I said basically the same thing in the first post, and I was soon modded as flamebait.

You paid for a closed-source service where you're at the mercy of the publisher's whims. What did you expect?

If only Democrats were capable of lying. If they had lied and said they knew what a woman is, all of this could have been avoided and Officer Harris could be back to jailing black men for weed.
