You are entirely misunderstanding how SSL certificates work. LetsEncrypt allows the owner/administrator of domains to get and use a free SSL certificate and there is nothing to suggest that they are giving out certificates to non-owners of the relevant domains. The fact that you confuse paypal.com with playpal.com is not a problem with SSL encryption.
The identity of the endpoint is shown in the browser URL. To prevent a MITM attack, I recommend using NoScript, so you can enable javascript on paypal.com, and your browser will then not run javascript on phisingpaypal.com without the user enabling it.
I was thinking more in terms of practicality - give it 50 years and most proprietary systems are dead in the water. Long term thinking is essential for any kind of long term archiving otherwise you'll just end up transferring the data around every 5-10 years.
It might not be the drivers' intentions to reduce highway capacity, but driving on a highway DOES reduce capacity for everyone else (to the tune of one vehicle). In large numbers, drivers can completely clog a road/highway and they then start complaining about there not being enough capacity for them all without realising that they are part of the problem.
It's not generally a good idea using trade secret and patent protected products for long term data archival. Eventually, the patents will expire, but in the short term, it restricts people from implementing and testing it and so you'll probably only discover the issues after it's too late.
It can be an issue as pretty much all sources of B-12 are meat and fish based, so a vegan is unlikely to get enough of it unless they make a special effort. Most foods aren't fortified with B-12 as B-12 deficiency is rare (unless you're a vegan). Also, as the body stores B-12 for about a year or so, it'll take a while for any deficiency to take effect.
Isn't a B-12 deficient diet an example of malnutrition?
Why SHOULD they think for themselves? They're explicitly paid to perform a specified job, so if they start questioning it, they'll just get replaced with someone who will just shut up and get on with it.
After all, they get paid to write code and then get paid to write the code that should have been specified in the first place.
Don't blame them for poorly/short-sighted written contracts.
Concentrating on the individual neurons might not be the most useful thing. The usefulness of neurons comes from the way that they are "wired" together - the network is key. It's analogous to "the network is the computer".
I'm curious about the border between southern and northern Ireland. Surely they'll need to build a wall and checkpoints when EIRE (southern Ireland) is part of the EU and Northern Ireland is part of the UK.
Surely "American" is more than a nationality. "American" covers anyone born on the American continent (i.e North America and South America). This means that Brazilians, Mexicans, Canadians etc can all be classified as American.
However, a lot of people believe that "American" only covers the U.S.A.
I appreciate why you might want to dual/multi-boot but for work purposes, I just use Linux. The lack of storage isn't a problem for me as I mainly use it to control lots of servers, so they do all the data storage and moving. When I've used it to spin up VMs, I've just plugged in an external USB drive, although that was mainly to make it easier to transfer images as most of the VMs I create are only 10-20gb in size. To me, the extra memory trumps internal storage.
I did say initially try out ChromeOs and used crouton to dual-boot into xUbuntu, but ended up wiping ChromeOs and just installing xUbuntu natively. The speakers don't work, but as it's a work machine, I didn't realise for 3-4 months that they were broken (headphones still work though).
It's odd to use a machine without a network socket, though. I ended up getting a USB-C to gigabit network adapter to connect it to my work network.
How do the prices compare for a similar spec MacBook Pro? I was under the impression that MacBooks were more expensive, but to be honest I hadn't really considered running Linux on a Mac. I might consider that in future.
Google's Pixel is an exception to that. I've got a Pixel2 at work with 16G ram and is running an i7. (I run xUbuntu on it rather than ChromeOs though).
So how is medicine not following scientific principles?
As I understand it, science progresses by having an idea about how things work (a conjecture or hypothesis), testing out that idea (e.g. double-blind studies) and then evaluating the outcome.
What actually bugs me about a lot of the anti-vaxxers is the complete misunderstanding of why double-blind experiments are so important. I've heard a lot of anecdotes from people proclaiming that certain foods cure certain ailments but it's all subjective results without any control groups and they wonder why I am sceptical.
I understand your desire for a deeper understanding of biological systems, but the big problem is that most biological systems are insanely complex, so it's more to do with getting a handle on complex systems which don't necessarily boil down to simple concepts. This is why a lot of medicine is based on a "suck-it-and-see" approach which can produce incredible effects in some cases (e.g. figuring out scurvy is caused by lack of vitamin c).
The dealer's original Ford has just the same worth or value as before. It's just that his potential market is a bit smaller which is more a failure of his business plan than being "stolen" from.
If I set up a business making buggy whips and then the auto mobile gets invented, would you claim that I've been stolen from? Should the new car-sellers be shut down and charged with theft?

NoScript. You enable javascript for paypal.com and then anytime you visit paypall.com, your browser sits there not running any javascript.

Guess who can't do research?

The best bet is to go with already tested open standards that anyone can implement, test and evaluate.

How about Silken Tofu - that's typically fortified with B-12

You can easily control update notifications by editing /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades .
32K RAM? In my day we could only get 16K, yet you tell kids today that and they won't believe you.

Yes, but it means that our exports are more attractive.

S4 mini or S5 mini? (I put S3 mini as that's what I use as a small phone and yes, it is quite old).
How about the Samsung S3 mini?

The screen is better and I use Linux, so I decided on the Pixel.
