It's either a web-service that emails a hyperlink to the message (which can be easily extracted), or something that only works if the recipient installs the same extension. In either case, why would a recipient voluntarily restrict their own access?
Well, it actually doesn't, at least not reliably. With the ability to retroactively alter history, you can never be 100% sure that someone didn't sneak a change into the repository without reviewing every line of every diff. Have fun!
You can rewrite history, but it will break compatibility with any forks or mirrors of the repository - and for popular github projects, there are hundreds or thousands of those. No way to alter commits that have already been published without making it very obvious.
For instance, their paper says that concatenating a million one byte strings into a single million byte string takes 274 seconds. That should take much less than one second
wtf. The only way it could take that long would be if they were concatenating them as immutable strings and had to copy the result repeatedly.
It seems counter-intuitive, but maybe electronic transmission of data is actually more secure than physical transport? Wipe all devices before crossing borders with them, then pull the backup over the internet (through a properly secured connection, of course).
BitCoins are too much in use to ever really go down in value for any length of time now that China is in the game.
They've dropped steadily for most of 2014, though. One could argue that that all of that was still correcting the bubble in late 2013, but that correction has lasted well over a year now. There hasn't really been a good time to hold on to Bitcoin since then, with a few short-term exceptions.
While his original idea has some sound points, the ideological militancy with which he pursues it does more harm to free software than good at this point. BSD-style licenses are not the enemy of free software.
Shunning BSD goes far beyond attacking non-free software; it's shunning free software proponents who don't shun non-free software. What's next, refusing to work with developers who also contribute to BSD projects? Refusing to work with developers who don't refuse to work with those developers? Take that far enough and you're basically on your own.
The experiment seems to be based on the assumption that a particle leaving and returning our universe would be likely to enter closely to where it left - is this an inevitable part of brane theory, or could the particle come out somewhere else entirely?

Spoiler alert: It won't.

Maybe after twenty years, companies will get around to fully supporting IPv6.
(That, or they'll start abusing the shit out of NAT.)

Well, you shouldn't give them the private key, obviously.
Can you... enhance the IP address?
Quickly, before the electrons mutate.

Well, if the US were willing to risk an armed conflict with Russia in order to get their hands on Snowden, they don't need to wait...
I'd trust an AI over any incompetent human operator in that respect.
like, eg., Predator drones?
The move from that to autonomy is mostly software...
> What a fucking babby.
how is linus formed
Also, most places that do use them internally (eg. the apt repositories) seem to only use the adjective and ditch the animal.
...
We'd become xenophobic omnicidal recluses and have to be locked away in a time lock...
wait what? Is that a thing people do?
Which is it, Deep Web or Darknet?
Excellent reporting there.

That's pretty optimistic for a centralized site that seems to do exactly what the Pirate Bay got shut down for...
... I have so many coathangers. I don't remember buying most of them.
Mind blown.

"I will not buy this passport. It is fake."
At least the bot didn't pay a hitman to have random people killed.
