Users have been asking Evernote for one single feature since its inception: Client side encryption.
It's also the one feature Evernote seems to absolutely make sure will never happen. Probably for a very good, non user friendly, reason.
I've just made the switch to the open source Turtl. Self-hosting possibilities, client side encryption. All the features from Evernote that I ever used. (And none of the features the Evernote team felt were important to add _instead_ of privacy... )
... which is why Craig went on the whole trying-to-claim-he's-Satoshi spree which was immediately proven to be a fraud. One of the things he did was to insert current info into old posts, and backdating things, to make it appear he's been "in" Bitcoin longer than he has.
He's hoping there's enough doubt at the patent office to grant him the patents, with those dates as precedence.
Maybe I'm just stubborn but I honestly don't understand how people can think that it's viable as an actual currency.
You answered your own question:
Also if you look at all the uses for BitCoin I'm sure that the majority of them are not for legal transactions.
Of course, that's only one of the areas where Bitcoin (lowercase 'c') excels. The value of Bitcoin comes from being a decentralized global non-censorable transaction network.
Bitcoin can, of course, make a lot more than 7 transactions per second. In general, it's best to get your Bitcoin knowledge from people who know Bitcoin:)
The needed BIPs for implementation of Lightning Network have just been accepted.
So the big news of the day is that Bitcoin's creator has stepped forward.
Let's nip it in the bud. No, he has not. A con man who was already outed half a year ago has made an elaborate stunt to try to convince people he's Satoshi. The stunt was quickly debunked.
For the technically minded: A cryptographic signature of text A will not be the same as the signature of text B, even if you use the same key. The signature Craig Wright claims is of text B has been found to be a known signature in the Bitcoin blockchain of text A.
I'm libertarian, and I strongly advocate for basic income.

For me it's about innovation. The Swedish game developer and music producing wonder is partly created by the "basic income" we give our students (very cheap student loans, no tuition fees, the loans pay for your living while studying). As far as I can see we'd see even more innovation happen if we guarantee that you can explore your ideas without fear of ending up on the street.
But scientists say that in the more ancient past, California and the Southwest occasionally had even worse droughts — so-called megadroughts — that lasted decades. At least in parts of California, in two cases in the last 1,200 years, these dry spells lingered for up to two centuries.
The new normal, scientists say, may in fact be an old one.
Well it's up to you to consider it relevant or irrelevant for some purpose - I made no specific point except to comment upon the parent's use of "we" and "ever".
I think you completely misunderstand the times involved in my first post. Human civilization arose during the warm beginning of our current interglacial, 6000-10000 years ago. Humans (whilst not Sapiens, but our cousins that we've interbred with) migrated durin the Eemian 115000 years ago.
... with caveats on defining "we" and "ever", of course. This whole interglacial that we're currently living in was warmer for the first few thousand years (when Sahara was a savannah, the fertile crescent was indeed fertile and there was no summer ice in the arctic) - and the previous interglacial (the Eemian) was warmer still.
But you're correct in that it's warmer now compared to the end of the coldest part of this interglacial. That coincides with us starting to take detailed measurements.

My comment was based in that Seafile [can have] client side encryption. Has ownCloud added that now? Else I don't see how your comment negates that fact.
... or just install Seafile instead. I use an RPi for my server, which then mounts storage over NFS. The whole hosting is thus self-contained running of a single SD-card on an RPi.
And is still plenty fast.
I see no benefit with ownCloud. Also less secure than Seafile.

After having made the transfer you should take care to deselect the active drive. However, you should not deselect the drive until the motor has stopped spinning. This is best done by doing a busy wait checking the MOTOR ON flag before deselection.
The "disk access light" is on as long as the drive is selected. It's perfectly safe to eject the disk once it has stopped writing, before the motor has spun down and the code (in this example me) has deselected the drive (turned off the light).
On the topic of can vs cannot, the same benefits are of course available for those who adopt.
Another question would be regarding those who choose vs don't choose to become parents, and there I see it as a question of society spending money on investing in itself.
(As to those who think it's a walk in the park to be on parental leave... everyone I know, including myself, considers coming back to work to be a very welcome vacation... )
I took out 19 months with our firstborn - from when he was 4 months old.
Of course, I'm Swedish. Anyone who would only take two months would be seen as quite uninterested in their children.
(In Sweden you get 480 days per child, to be divided as you see fit between mother and father. 120 of those days are however locked, divided up as 60 each, to each parent. You get 80% of your salary during parental leave, capped to a maximum which is far far below what anyone in "IT" makes)

I run my own Seafile instance, on encrypted disks. All communication between my clients and the server is encrypted. All the storage is encrypted.
Why?
Because I also assume, in a post-Snowden world, that all my communication is monitored.
Why would you need to simulate the Milky Way in great detail?
Unless someone's looking, there's no need to simulate in great detail.
(One could argue that the "holes" in scientific theories are when the simulation needs to account for previous shortcuts once we start looking)

Why do you think there are "built-in, fundamental limitations"?
"root keys" & "send Bitcoin to the shitter"
I don't think you understand how Bitcoin works.
So the big news of the day is that Bitcoin's creator has stepped forward.

Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto.

Oh I thought the point was obvious - you seem to have a mistaken impression of the times the events I mentioned happened at.

I'm sorry, I just assumed no creationists debated this issue.

FWIW.
Music streaming service Spotify announced it will offer six months of paid parental leave to full-time employees.
Guess which country spawned Spotify?

Considering God, Jahwe and Allah are all names for the same deity, yes, the two are indeed equivalent.
