Rewrite the drive's firmware so it cannot be used for anything but encrypted backup and only when given a certain key. You'll just need to borrow some of Equation's hard drive firmware rewriting malware, and use it correctly.
When I said "stacked" encryption I meant encrypting an already encrypted file repetitively.
Isn't that what all incorrect keys do? Generate a result different from what the genuine key would produce
I meant to say 'generate a result that could be misinterpreted as a valid message', thus maintaining the so-thought integrity of the fake message.
For example, drawing from Get Smart, imagine that Alice wanting to communicate with Bob uses a plain-text message that looks unencrypted to bystander Eve, such as:
My food is good. Eating is good. Eating is good. To infinity and beyond. Underestimate how delicious food is. Near broccoli is guacamole. Do not eat asparagus. Eat bread, instead. Read the recipe books. Toward the breadbox is the bread. Hens taste good on the table. Eggs go well with turkey. Beer is an alcoholic beverage. Right behind the fridge is a mouse. Indigo is a nice color for plums. Don't burn the food. Green eggs and ham taste bad. Empty the trash can when you get here.
If you take the first letter from each word, you get MEETUNDERTHEBRIDGE, or Meet [me] under the bridge. But this message appeared unencrypted, even supposing that this message passed the very last layer of escrow.
Do I actually think that the office coffee supply isn't coming, in some small way, out of my paycheck? No, certainly not. Do I think that the cup of coffee I am able to have because of it is fresher than something that came from home in a thermos, cheaper than something from the local coffee place, and more convenient than having to pick it up from the local coffee place? Yes, that I do.
How about this: have employees make their own lunch, pay them for doing so, just also pay them for the ingredients that they use. Less company workers hired, developers take a break from work to think, and developers enjoy food more.
until, assuming encryption is stacked, one of the escrow holders manages to create a fake key which, when used to decrypt some given message, produces an entirely different result than the key holder's genuine key should generate. Example: Shamir's Secret Sharing
Imagine a planet with one nerd on it. Every second, the planet and the nerd individually double in size. Because of this, the nerd feels a downward pull because he's expanding downward toward the planet and the planet's expanding upward toward the nerd. This theory is yet unconfirmed; AFAIK it cannot be proved because we possibly live in that world.
"Dark Energy" could just be a different way of thinking about gravity, much like the previous paragraph could be how our real universe works.
The user generates 64 bits of the first key, the US Govt. generates the next 64 bits, the Canadian govt. generates the next 64 bits, et cetera.
Apply same process for both keys, then use a one-way conversion process to create a new key from the old one such that only govt.s whose random numbers went into the making can reverse the new key in a finite amount of time. Of course, this would get hurt by FREAK-like vulnerabilities.
, but divide the key into pieces so that no one person or agency alone could decide to use it.
Exactly how do they intend to split a key; by piling layers of encryption atop each other or by splitting the RSA public key modulo's factors into multiple authorities?
Given the option of piling layers of encryption on top of each other, it would seem that private keys would need to be divulged to create this encrypted comm. system
'Coding' can be like following a recipe. (hola mundo)
Or it can be like making a recipe. (configuring linux)
Or it can be like designing the oven and growing ingredients for an ultimate dish. (a polished application/game/program)
When I was 13, I'd moved on from games into AI systems. Of course I never wrote much code (although I knew many languages), but taught myself important conceptual foundations for machine learning.
A few years ago, users of Internet services began to realize that when an online service is free, you’re not the customer. You’re the product. But at [name goes here], we believe a great customer experience shouldn’t come at the expense of your privacy.
There needs to be a compiler (not language) that can convert mathematical proofs to an optimized assembly listing. How it would work, the files it would take in, and who would use it - I don't know.

Encrypt with GPG and a 20 character random passphrase.
FIFTY.
Use a passphrase, not a password
What does "stacked" mean in this context?

which has a window to let you view notifications while the cover is closed
I don't get the whole idea behind a separate window to view notifications through. I like to see an entire screen.

Yes, for the record, this is Scott Adam's idea

the area of the on-screen keyboard instead act as a finger-pad...
I don't know about you, but I write with a pencil more accurately than a finger. Leverage gives me the upper hand in precision.
..but the QWERTY keyboard was not optimized for English.

Microsoft isn't as bad as Google or Apple. The other two are really dirty with their monopolistic practices and anti-corporate attitudes.
I'm not understanding: is this domesday?
Unless you're kid truly displays a passion for it, I would not advise pushing him onto it.
Passion matters. That's how I won all three chess tournaments in middle school (6th - 8th).

Me and my friends from the millennial generation were taught with [stolen] copies of visual base 6.
My dad's generation learnt from the ways of C.

It's ironic that I'm seeing an ad for malware (myturbopc.com) at the top of this /. page
We will lose if Adobe makes an OS
Agreed. IDE's have fixed Hungarian notation - Simonyi lived before modern development environments came along.
