  1. To frame someone is the core buisiness of the CIA.

  2. Except for the former vice president.

    And most kids will learn that in the US, if you follow a STEM education, you're learning and putting yourself in debt to be replaced by some H1B. Much better to learn for a medical doctor or lawyer instead, they make sure they won't be replaced by regulating their professions. In Russia (or most other eastern European countries) you can get education more or less for free if you're smart enough because they understand that they need educated people to get their economies further.

  4. Too many lawyers in the US on Why So Many Top Hackers Come From Russia (krebsonsecurity.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    In the US, there is an extreme risk-averse culture. Not risk-averse as in "start a company and it might fail" but as in "don't even think about trying to beat the system, someone might sue you for it". So the very thing that causes many of the most succesfull companies to be founded in the US is actively suppressed when it comes to hacking skills.

  5. More H1B's anyone? on How Can Businesses Close 'The Cybersecurity Gap'? (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It doesn't matter if they know nothing, as long as the manager gets his bonus and is gone before the fallout of their crappy work becomes clear.

  6. Re:The real big advantage of tech companies. on Auto Makers Threatened By Both Tech Company Autos And Ridesharing (caranddriver.com) · · Score: 1

    One of their PROBLEMS is that they expect fast life cycles. If you buy a brand new car and it has $0 value left after 4 years because it gets no software updates and does not keep driving using the old software, customers are NOT going to accept that.

  7. Even if that were so, the car would also be used up much faster than before. My car is 15 years old and I don't plan on replacing it unless I get some serious maintenance costs. Their bubble are the people who buy a brand new car every few years and they forget about all others who use second hand cars.

  8. Open source software can;t be attacked in that way.

    Importing more muslims will get you a new home-grown generation in 25 years. And you can look for a solution to the same muslims: the Turks showed it to us when they wanted to get rid of the Armenians.

  10. Not really, he should not let any new muslims in the country anyway. If they come anyway, there are some nice places in Poland where to send them.

  11. On the other hand, unlike what we read about the US, if stupid laws are passed in Europe, they are usually just ignored. WhatsApp is not going to backdoor their encryption and Signal certainly not. Even Silence, the encrypted sms fork from Signal when they dropped encrypted sms, is developed in France and Canada.

  12. And now they "need" to break encryption because Stormfront.org has now https too.

  13. 1.2 billion muslims would just be fine.

    Merkel is a product of the DDR (former East Germany, notorious for its secret police STASI) and it shows.

    They should not let them in in the first place, but with Merkel in charge that's not going to happen. And she needs to break encryption to prevent anyone being able to organize against her.

    Or more to the point, there are very few nlggers in Japan.

    The world has changed since the founding fathers. Their ideas might have worked for a low-tech agricultural society with a low population density, not for todays megacities.

    So I can get easily to the Pirate Bay and don't pay for anythging else.

  19. I like the Russian method of regime change more than the American way. I think the population of most of the countries that the US bombed agrees with me.

    Maybe Trump can buy it, fire most of the useless employees and keep those required to keep it running. Then at least they can't threaten to kick him off.
