It also lacks the petty name calling and swearing that APK puts in when someone calls him on his rantings. Further more APK at least claims his rantings.
Not even close. With symmetric key encryption and ideal quantum computers you would still need total annual US energy production levels of energy instead of mass energy of a star levels of energy. That assumes an ideal computer which even our best ones are many orders of magnitude worse than. Also for asymmetric crypto there is always lattice-based crypto as a replacement.
Well they have been actively working to vilify encryption. The really sad part is that those in the US government have told us exactly what they want to do. Here are a couple of examples. Before the Paris Attacks, and the San Bernardino attack Robert S. Litt (the second General Counsel of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence) said:
it could turn in the event of a terrorist attack or criminal event where strong encryption can be shown to have hindered law enforcement.
"focused on trying to get the law changed" so that companies would be required to unlock data and devices for law enforcement
Fast forward to the terror attacks on Paris and the line in media was all about how the terrorists used encrypted communication, a line that was total BS but is what was initially widely reported so that is what the general public believes. Then go forward a little more to the San Bernardino attack and that fucking encrypted iPhone. It was a problem because it was encrypted, but it turns out nothing of value was found on it.
Go forward a bit more to the latter part of last year and you again have FBI Directory James Comey stating that he is preparing to have an "adult conversation" on encryption next year. So I would expect that anything that can be done to vilify encryption in the public eye will be done. At this point it seems like the CIA leak may be used to help do this as a way to get some benefit of the leak, and I don't believe that this was some sort of false flag but probably an insider. So I would recommend keeping an eye out for vilification of encryption or those who are pro encryption (Friday March 10th 2017 stream of the Brokaw Report sounds strangely like a short calm version of InfoWars with Tom Brokaw playing the part of Alex Jones).
The carpenter I'm working with right now charges $100/hour. It's not all gravy for him for sure: he's commuting an hour at 7 in the morning after going to his supplier to pick up materials. He has to pay for his truck, and tens of thousands of dollars worth of tools. And $100/hour isn't the same as being salaried since he's running a business and has overheads.
Far too few people understand this. My neighbor across the street is a semi retired self employed general contractor who is also a licensed plumber and electrician. He still makes some really good money doing it part time. My next door neighbor is a master mechanic who is making close to $200K a year and has all of the toys. My dad has a friend who is a machinist who is making close to $300K now.
When I was in high school though these types of jobs were discouraged and everyone was pushed to go college to get a 4 year degree and to suggest going for an AAS or some lesser degree was heresy. It probably still is but even worse now as I doubt most high schools even have any shop classes. I was lucky enough to take those classes and not being the stereotypical person who took shop got to do a bunch of things that I wouldn't have other wise been able to. Such things like use the 3-axis milling machine to make custom parts for a high mileage vehicle I designed that the class was building. Most of the other guys in the class didn't have the math knowledge to effectively design something and the teacher didn't trust them with the 3-axis mill or metal lathe. Even in those classes my teaches discouraged me from going into those fields as I asked one of them about how to become a machinist and he told me that I shouldn't bother because I should go for a higher degree.
Painting isn't that difficult. Filthy, tedious, a pain in the ass, smelly yest but skill wise not that difficult, although the worst was putting on the popcorn texture on ceilings I fucking hated that. In high school that was one of the things I did when I worked construction during the summer building houses because it paid pretty well ($15/hr in the mid 1990s). Roofing also falls into that category as does basic framing, as they are pretty low skill. We aren't talking plumbing, finishing, electrical, or putting in gas lines here which require actual skills. Pounding nails while tedious and tiring doesn't require skills that my 5 year old hasn't managed to master.
They have always been so. People who put more into their education than merely showing up for the required classes have always had an advantage.
This. If there are 2 academically identical people but one has been working with things in the field outside of class while the other didn't I would be much more likely to hire the one who worked with it on their own outside of class. I figure that helped me when I started out as I had a bunch of time interning (4 summers worth) writing code to run robotic test equipment, a campus job to rebuild the HPC lab at my university, was A+ certified after graduating high school, worked on research projects with some of my professors and had my name as an assistant on their papers. The hardest thing was I graduated right after the.com bust so it was difficult to find that first real job with the glut of workers with real experience in my field so for 6 months I drove forklift until I did.
I always said that Volkswagen was German for failed engineer. Having dealt with a number of early 2000s VW they were all just basket cases and have things laid out in poor ways.
Hey no talking sense here. I don't want to hear about massive container ships, massive super tankers, massive natural gas rigs, giant power shovels, or giant haul trucks . There are big machines and then there are big machines and people tend to not realize just how huge of things we build. Having been next to some outdated 240t haul trucks you get a sense of just how huge these things are.
That seems memorable and brings a good image to mind, As an added bonous I now know what Shuqualak is and that you are suppose to pronounce it as "sugar lock"
Really, security is playing the odds anyway. You want to stack the deck in your favor where you can
While this is true stacking the deck in your favor actually means requiring access to the mass energy of a star (find the phrase orgy of computation here for an explanation) to have a 0.000001% chance of cracking it on average.
When forced to answer security questions, I generate a random multi-word answer and store that in answer in my password manager. Unfortunately that just makes it a weird backup password that I have no idea if or when it might become relevant.
I mean it isn't like banks and credit cards don't also now ask for an answer to a security question in addition to your password/sarcasm. What I found interesting is that my bank only allows passwords up to 24 characters but allows for basically arbitrary length security question answers (at least 128 characters). So now they are basically trying to do shitty 2 factor but it is just 2 of the same factor (something I know). At least I can increase the entropy in that one factor substantially.
As a city boy with strong roots to rural America I still get a kick out of people who refer to tractors by color and not in a bad way it is I just don't hear that all that often. By the way my family was a red and black tractor family while my wife's was big into green with orange being acceptable. I do miss seeing the goldenrod yellow ones though.
By the way I always though the Ford tractors from the 60s were really nice looking machines with the 2 tone paint and space age embellishments.
Unfortunately I don't know any farmers who own anything much larger than a Model D, let alone anything approaching an 8000 series, and those are easy to maintain. I've never understood the brand loyalty with tractors either but then I am not a farmer.
And yet you seem to be able to prove my point time and time again with your delusions, non-sequiturs, circular arguments, incoherent ravings, and general paranoia. Although I should have know it wasn't you who made that post even though the author does a pretty good job of copying your/. style as you do claim credit for your mad ravings. It is also rather entertaining to bait you and then just stop responding once the rise has been gotten like I am going to do now.
Cars aren't like tractors. If they were you would still see ones from the 50s and 60s not just as show pieces but as daily use models. Tractors cater to a market that expects high reliability, ease of use, and ease of maintenance, or at least the farmers I know do. I do wonder if Case IH, Ford, and CAT are pulling this shit because it would be a great way to separate themselves from John Deere. Although there is a lot of brand loyalty with tractors and makes things like VI vs. Emacs or Ford vs. Chevy fights seem weak.
My best guess is implementation flaws as that is the most common. Even with a quantum computer you are still looking at ocean boiling levels of energy with the most efficient current computers. Even on an ideal quantum computer you would need a sizeable fraction of the total US annual energy consumption (I believe it is about 10%).
The other has a kiosk where you specify your choices, hit enter, and someone behind the counter puts it together while you go pay (this second one is also a convenience store and gas stations, so you may choose to buy something else while you are there). I don't go to either very often, but when I do, I prefer the second (and there are times when I decide to go out for lunch because the second is an option).

Nationalizing health benefits would result in large job losses, as health insurance companies would disappear.
And nothing of value would be lost in that.

They'll be sending me a check for up to $350 once (if) the settlement is accepted by the courts. The hearing is on May 11.
Sounds like someone will be getting a coupon for 5 free pine tree air fresheners.
I think at this point anyone buying a Scout or Scout II is either an International Harvester fan or wants to have a project 4x4 that isn't a Jeep.
