  1. I found this issue on github and it appears they are not as good as claimed, this is a security 101 mistake. "Currently the generated C functions don't check for the proper length of the input arrays. Indeed the user can read it from the original F* code, but when they make a mistake the code still executes and reports success (like in #53 ). Would be possible to add bound checks on inputs and return an error code (like 1 in case of aead_encrypt "

  2. The statement of using only one sensor is scary especially for something that automatically adjust the flight path, but even having two is scary. With 2 sensors how does the software know which is right when they disagree ? For true fault tolerance you need a minimum of 3 sensors

  5. Re: Am I the only one... on Apple Will Wait Until at Least 2020 To Release a 5G iPhone: Report (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    I agree with that and add that just because the 5G hardware is available (cell site) they still need to upgrade the internet service to the cell site in order to provide these higher speeds.

  6. It appears that Hilary may have interfered with a Russian Election, so can you blame Putin from interfering in our election if we interfere with theirs ?

  8. https does not require user/password on Is Google's Promotion of HTTPS Misguided? (this.how) · · Score: 1

    https does not require user/password, the trust is established based on the user cert store and the signer of the web sites certificate. If the web site cert is signed by a trusted source (Cert Store) then it will establish a secure connection.

  9. Re:Encryption only seems to be a problem... on Two Years After FBI vs Apple, Encryption Debate Remains (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    They (govt) does not need to understand it, they should just look at all the government breaches of secure systems(plus public ones) and realize the backdoor keys (method) can not be kept secret when your own systems leak like a sieve

  11. Big issue .... on Tablet Shipments Decline For 13th Straight Quarter (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    The tablet market lack serious improvements from model year to model year. Samsung in particular I bought 7 inch tablet 5 or 6 years ago (still works) , but the one I got 3 years ago for free has been barely upgraded, slightly faster processor a smaller bezel and the same lack of maintaining the OS from Samsung.

    It does fit, had the Note 7 batteries been replaceable they would not have had to recall all of those phones at 900 dollars a clip instead they could have sent out the 25 or 30 dollar battery.

  18. Samsung should use this on Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Batteries Are Being Recalled For Overheating Risk (theverge.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Samsung should take from this that if the battery is user replaceable it is less costly to fix and maybe should go back to making phones with replaceable batteries
