If the failure rate is at least 56% for missile interception, why not just launch more interceptors? I am surprised that success rate is even that high frankly. It's possible that failure rate already includes using saturation, in which case forget I asked this.
While the articles has mentions "protecting patient privacy" this isn't explained. It is hard to see how a widely distributed ledger of medical records would be anything but a privacy disaster.
As interesting and intriguing terms become popular, they get hijacked by others who want to bask in the same aura. This is how a dumb cat picture becomes a "meme."
HL7 is just a messaging format, doesn't provide for audit, nor does it scale well across a large number of recipients. Unless you want every hospital and doctor to maintain records on every person, and maintain a VPN to every other hospital and doctor.
Exactly. I would add that the work week used to be what, 80+ hours? Now it is a lot lower due to the power of automation. ~40 hours is now enough, since automation means more purchasing power as goods and services get cheaper. Perhaps in the automated production future, the work week will be only 5 hours. If we have the technology to automate to such a level that the rich don't need to sell anything to everyone else, won't everyone else just do the same thing? It might be sticky until the patents expire, but that's why we have periodic elections.
It is still widely used in the financial world. I don't know why, probably just some historical leftover. I wonder how this will affect users in the US from this industry. They all use proxies or other tools with AIM to fulfill regulatory requirements about recording communications.
I've felt this way since the early days of getting caught in an endless 'on exit' loop. Oh wait, that's not the early days, that's TODAY, even in Chrome. Why is this even possible in the first place?
Correct. If the US occupied Mexico, then started settling Americans there who openly talked about displacing, out-breeding, and otherwise getting rid of all the Mexicans there, THEN built a wall between the US and occupied Mexico, it would be more similar.
I think you can expect that the insurance carrier will require certain measures to be in place, especially reliable and tested backups. They aren't going to insure you against ransomware per se, they will only cover any losses incurred while restoring, or something similar. And it will have to be direct, quantifiable losses, such as cost of recalling tapes from storage. If you somehow found a carrier willing to insure you against enormous undefined losses due to your own failures, you can bet the premiums will be far higher than the cost of the backups.
Interesting. I was thinking more of that small minority of rude and obsessed people who seem to take over every conversation, start flame wars everywhere, send death threats to everyone, etc. much like spam, it doesn't take that long to generate a lot of noise if you want to take the time. So it can appear there are a lot of jerks because they make so much noise, even though only a very small percentage of the audience.
This news supports the frequent observation that the Internet and associated communications platforms give a very disproportionate voice to a very small minority of jackasses who seem to have nothing better to do.
Those robots are already helping the elderly, by contributing to a huge increase in purchasing power. Cheaper goods means a small amount of money goes further, which is why even the poorest people in industrialized nations are much better off (relatively) than the same strata 200 years ago.
i tested it against the telemetry traffic using an external capture, and it was all blocked. The complaint about that setup has always been that MS could tweak it at any time.
We already have all these sensors built in. No need to add them on the outside. The problem is the operator either isn't aware of the messages or tells itself lies to create a different explanation.
I would not suggest going back, but I did enjoy a lot of songs that the tape format forced me to listen to while driving. Nowadays with libraries of single songs and skip buttons, any song I don't like at first goes away. I won't bore you with an actual list, but there are a lot of songs I didn't like at first but then came to really enjoy. These would all be skipped with my modern digital setup.
I didn't realize that it was until just now. Excellent point, what I said is apparently not the only motivation, seems more in line with the ACs points.
I believe the legal logic is that a child cannot give consent to be in pornography ( or agree to a contract ) so the assumption is some kind of coercion.

I suspect AC was being sarcastic.

Soon enough they will wake up and say, wow we just took 10 years to re-invent all the features of email clients.
This. 99% of the known vulnerabilities are mitigated, sure. The other 1% are the vulnerabilities that attackers are actually using.

Only 2000 edits undone over a year? That isn't many at all for an automated process. Apparently bot-on-bot action is more like inaction.

Exactly, what the heck is an "ethicist" anyway? Aren't we all ethicists? "Ethicists Advise Caution" is so far below interesting.

I my experience, it is everyone under 30 using a VPN, at least in the cities.
Could be an interesting precedent, when my 'right to repair' my computer comes into question.
And do all twelve of them know the password? Hmmm....now his security is only as good as those twelve people's security.
