Tibalt posted:I awoke from The Trump at the age of thirty-four, calm and sane, and in reasonably good health except for a weakened liver and the look of borrowed flesh common to all who survive The Trump. . . . Most survivors do not remember the delirium in detail. I apparently took detailed notes on sickness and delirium. Trump is the ideal product...the ultimate merchandise. No sales talk necessary. The Republican will crawl through a sewer and beg to buy...the Trump merchant does not sell his product to the consumer, he sells the consumer to his product. He does not improve and simplify his merchandise. He degrades and simplifies the client. He pays his staff in Trump.

It's just such a stupid thing to go down for. Why invest so much time and energy into getting Ukraine to do this? To make his 2016 win seem more impressive. To take out a 2020 democratic candidate before they have a nominee. Both worth virtually nothing. Am I missing something?

DeeplyConcerned posted:Public prisons have the same problem. The prison guard union in California was the biggest driver behind the prison boom there and the three strikes law. That was all public unions. You’ve answered your own question that a private prison will be shittier. And it’s for the simple reason that they will always be looking at ways to cut costs. That’s the business model.

No need to overthink it. Trump is a brain-wormed idiot who thought he could lean on Ukraine to prove some bullshit conspiracy to help him get re-elected. He was able to try because he either ignored/fired all the smart people and Rudy Fuckin’ Giuliani was running State on this op. One thing that feels lost in all this is that Ukraine got so totally hosed. They work to get rid of corruption and as they make progress the US President looks at them and goes “uhh..gonna need you to do some crimes now”. That’s not even factoring in how much the lack of US support forced their hand on giving up Crimea.

I don't have any idea if that's even possible but I'm sure that's how it's being sold to the higher ups. It’s the opposite, afaik. The fundamental issue with encryption is being able to generate random numbers that your opponent can’t predict. This was an essentially impossible problem, because what even is ‘true random’ anyways, until quantum computers allowed us to use a particle’s state as the number generator.

I don't have any idea if that's even possible but I'm sure that's how it's being sold to the higher ups. It makes it a lot faster, but not a surety. Larger encryption schemes will still require significant quantum computing power to handle. Not as much as the x86 machines they are replacing, but still a fair amount. Encryption schemes have been beefing up expecting the eventual break in quantum computing.

I have to say that back in the day I found it really off-putting when leftists would harp on and on about Bush being stupid. It seemed patently disingenuous on its face — like, okay maybe he's not a Rhodes scholar or whatever, but he seems capable of stringing words and thoughts together and holding to a consistent philosophy, even if it's a bad one. Calling him "stupid" always seemed to miss the point badly, like really, that's your biggest objection to the guy? And drawing parallels between him and Hitler also seemed off the mark; not that many of the hallmarks really seemed to be there. If 2000-2008 America was on a path to Nazidom, it sure was of a wildly different flavor than I would have pictured. It seemed like Bush's opponents were self-defeating, with these characterizations that shot so wide of anything that seemed to fit the facts. So I've always (or at least since then) been very reluctant to throw around aspersions like "stupid" when talking about people in politics. But god drat, if what's going on now doesn't fit every profile I kept hearing bandied about back then to an exact T, just the way I would have imagined all those leftist objections if they were actually hitting the mark as I would have expected.

PIZZA.BAT posted:*sigh* In a nutshell, based on my understanding... Russia brokered a deal between Turkey and the Assad Regime in Syria. The deal gives Turkey its corridor and lets them do a minor genocide instead of an invasion. No borders will be redrawn, but Kurds still get forcefully removed from the corridor. Americans are being forced to retreat to Iraq and are being told they have to leave from there. Americans are being shut out of Syria, despite the “we secured The Oil.” My guess is Russia or Turkey has secured the oil and he just means ISIS doesn’t have it? From a geopolitical standpoint it is real bad. Russia is now the chief power in that region. Putin gets exactly what he wanted. As for ISIS nobody has any idea. Reports were that we lost thousands of ISIS prisoners as Turkey was shelling the prisons and using the chaos to expedite a Kurdish retreat.

There is a well-known algorithm that can break public key crypto but the problem is building a quantum computer big enough. Quantum systems are quite fragile and if they interact with the wrong thing all of the useful properties and all of the information disappear. There are a host of other uses for quantum computers / quantum info, including quantum cryptography which has huge security benefits.
