More for me, then.

My personal take is, you can start working on encryption algorithms that are secure against computing models that are purely theoretical only _after_ you sort out the human factors disaster area in the encryption systems you already built.

Christine is spot on, as always.

In addition, this seems to open the door to a challenge on whether _any_ disability that is "the object of psychiatric treatment" is a valid basis for a Civil Rights Act or 14th Am. claim. People who rely on disability accommodations for their mental health needs just caught strays, I think.

Edit: a quote from a concurrence is at least not binding, but it's an open invitation to bring more suits.

In context it's pretty clear that they _mean_ to ask if this is a call about a body part they were not previously treating, which is boring, but what they asked is if this is a body part you did not previously have.

"If you're calling about a new body part…"

As a thought experiment, which word processors available today could you use to write _The Anarchist's Cookbook_, if you wanted to?

Asking as I keep my local branch's upstreams pointed at origin/main (the remote default branch), and I keep running into people who think that's unusual, so I want to hear how others are coping with git.

Straw poll for my git-using friends: do you keep your local foo branch's upstream pointed at:

main (a local copy of the default branch)
origin/main (the remote default branch)
origin/foo (the branch you're pushing to)
don't care (don't care)
or something else?

Not a mastodon poll as I'm interested in hearing thoughts more than I am counting answers.

"But who do you consider to be the last Roman emperor?"

"The last Byzantine emperor."

"So you're a schismatic and should be burned at the stake, then?"

"Apparently, because the Pope was just wrong on this one."

Nah, this is much more like the South Sea Bubble.
