There can never be physical equality between inequal values. Male and female humans are physically and mentally distinct from one another. So much so that functional MRIs can actually distinguish between male and female brains.
Expecting there to be equality of the type I believe you're referencing would be like suggesting that we can achieve equality between male and female lions by making sure that their parents give them the same toys to play with as cubs.
Yeah, without some evidence that these are actual Trump supporters (whom I imagine don't envision themselves to be appropriately represented by *demon* avatars), this really smells of a Something Awful-style false flag attack.
The secure enclave might handle all those tasks, but crypto validation of the touch sensor might be done on the main bus. If that's the case, then they might be correcting a vulnerability whereby the CPU tells the secure enclave processor, "yes you can trust what this device says" even in the case of a swapped device that shouldn't be trusted, permitting unauthorized access to the crypto store.
It depends on what risks are associated with allowing a device to operate with a non-genuine or missing touch sensor. If, and this is speculative, but if it poses a risk to the secure storage of the "Secure Enclave", then it seems reasonable from my "fail secure" mentality.
I can only speculate, but this might be the more secure choice due to the way that the Touch ID module authenticates directly to the "Secure Enclave", but with the hardware signature verification taking place between the Touch ID module and the CPU. Total speculation though, I don't know the nitty gritty details of the security architecture. I'm disinclined to believe this is all just conspiratorial malice, however.
Plenty of research demonstrates that friendship cures loneliness whereas romance does not
I call BS. I don't sleep (and I mean actual sleep, not sex) with my friends, and that's one of the best parts about a relationship. Sounds like some researchers spiked their studies with narrow word definitions.
"One big gain is not having to write my own custom init scripts"
Is this really a big problem for people?! I hear this all the time. Init scripts are shell scripts. They're really simple. I can't even conceive of how one could manage to develop a UNIX daemon and not the shell script to manage its execution.
This is aggressively missing the point. The original poster was discussing the fact that you can hop in any modern car and know with certainty how to actuate the left or right hand turn indicators. His/her point is valid and true, but instead of addressing it you are now on about hazard lights.
Is this an article or an advertisement? The icon says "Ad", but it's listed as submitted by an "anonymous reader" and gives the appearance of being a news article.
Worse, it's not even informed opinion. You can't just "slap an RTG" on a probe and hope for the best. There are engineering, cost, and benefits considerations to make.
This is hand-waving! If there are these considerations, then detail them, don't just vaguely mention it in passing as a rebuttal.
The reason people fear nuclear power is: there have been catastrophic nuclear disasters in our recent history.
So the reason that people fear nuclear power is that the hear the word "nuclear" and freak out before trying to understand the difference between a light water reactor and an RTG?
Is it bad that my first thought was wondering which pack of SJWs was behind this excuse to narrate the history of our "thing" and hand out trophies to their friends?
This is very true. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, because I was and am just part of a whole community that has fought this struggle, comprised of every gender and race, but at any rate... I've spent a serious portion of my life putting in the work. The story isn't all about rewards or recognition.
To get where I am now, I've literally spent more time at a keyboard on most days than anywhere else including asleep, most of it in self-directed study or trying to solve some problem or achieve some goal in my fields. That's the story of the majority of my teenage and adult life. And that's the real opportunity cost to operate at this level.
I'm sure as hell not telling anyone that they can't pay that cost because of what's in their pants. The more the merrier, in fact I implore and double dog dare every person reading this to put in that work - we need more of us, IMO.
STEM equals progress in the demonstrably vital STEM fields. That's why politicians talk about it, hopefully. I can only speak for myself, but I ain't doing this for my health. It is a passion, but at the root of that passion lies the knowledge that we are building a better world.
Except that every empirical experiment proves you are wrong about that.
That's such an absurd claim. I wouldn't even know where to start if I wanted to.
Vet schools on average admit 4 males for ever female student admitted. But when the personal details on applications are obscured, so that the selection committees do not know the gender of applicants - it switches to 60/40 female selection !
It sounds like you're very familiar with research which, forgive me for saying so, confirms your own pre-existing biases. Have you considered searching out research which may have the opposite effect? Have you examined and verified as unflawed to your knowledge the study you're talking about?...without citing so I can see, I might add?

I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't claim this, because that would be, err, dumb.
Or, it's a legitimate if somewhat heavy-handed workaround to a gap in the hardware security architecture.

If you could replace the touch ID sensor with any old thing, then they'd publish about "SECURITY FLAWS IN TOUCH ID ARCHITECTURE DISCOVERED" instead.

"ORNL: Actually..."
I wished all the config files were located in a single root-level directory (like "home"), perhaps named "cfg".

This kind of knowledge gap can be very dangerous to a democracy, where the people as a whole are tasked with evaluating and deciding on leadership.

Another is something like: "we tested A B and C and in general people using B did thing better/faster/easier".

Secoundly, Plutonium-238 is simply no longer available
The US started making it again in 2013 when Russian supplies dwindled.

I gave one as an example.
More like "mentioned". I didn't get to read it.
They all confirmed what I said, there hasn't yet BEEN one that found the opposite.
I'm skeptical. I'm cursorily familiar with research which actually does call into question some of these gender pay gap studies, for example.
So I could say that I know EVERYTHING about the studies that questioned my beliefs - they all ended up confirming them when tested.
You could say that, but it would sound kind of kooky.
Except that every empirical experiment proves you are wrong about that.
That's such an absurd claim. I wouldn't even know where to start if I wanted to.
