More generally, there's a strong negative correlation between reliable contraceptive methods being available and birth rate. There's also a strong positive correlation between infant mortality and birth rate. Comparing the situation today with Victorian Britain as though the only thing which had changed is the working time directive overlooks those two significant differences (and surely many other relevant ones).
“If this result holds up under peer review, it would indeed be a conceptual break-through,” Karsten Nohl, a cryptography expert and the head of innovation at Allurity, said in an interview. “RSA is as difficult to break as it is to factor large integers, at least so we thought. The researcher suggests that you can practically break RSA without cracking its key.”
It's now the Department of Just ICE, but they haven't got round to updating the letterheads.
My Spanish bank this year forced me to install their app for verification because they discontinued the receipt of an SMS for the second factor. I am not amused: SMS works, but seemingly every other time I launch the app to verify an online credit card payment it insists on updating before it will let me do anything, and meanwhile there's a Verified By Visa timer ticking down.
record ambient conversations illegally
Only illegal outside of single-party consent states.
"Ambient conversations" include (and some would argue consist exclusively of) conversations in which you're not a party.
There is a legitimate use for people with certain disabilities, but sadly there's no way to use them for legitimate purposes without Meta having the opportunity to piggy-back on the usage and abuse them for illegitimate purposes.
One word: Meta.
The very first line, before the fine article even begins, says that it's a guest post by Henry Cohn, so the summary is simply false.
How do you propose that this would work? Would Flock have access to each police department's database of active cases? That would be a cure worse than the disease.
Just wait until they connect it up to a Robin Hood game.
The colonies fought a war to ensure that the USA is not subject to the jurisdiction of the UK. The UK may not regulate US entities without the consent of the US government
That's a non-sequitur. The USA is not subject to the jurisdiction of the UK, but US citizens physically in the UK are, and companies based in the US but doing business in the UK have to comply with UK law as it affects their operations in the UK or accept the corresponding penalties as the cost of doing business there.
The Anthropic announcement of a counterexample to the Jacobian conjecture has also had some suspicions raised this week: arxiv:2609.05746 page 160.
The one I'm most interested in is the Hadamard conjecture. So far all we've had is a dump of some matrices at sizes which were previously open. This is an area where some people were putting in some effort, although it's a while since the last progress - in 2004, a couple of researchers published a solution for size 428. What we really want is to know (a) how exactly these new matrices were found: was it just throwing lots of computational power at known approaches or is there a new idea? And (b) is there a proof of the conjecture or just some gap-filling in the databases of known sizes with solutions?
The first sentence of TFS says
and instead see only posts from people and creators they follow
It's not about sorting but about filtering.
GDPR, Article 4, clause 2, my emphasis:
‘processing’ means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction;
So your premise is in direct contradiction with the letter of the law.
