I went and saw Barbie twice. I caught the show when my fiancée was out of town, then took her out to see it when she got back. The movie works on a lot of levels and I thought it was well done. Great writing, great cast.

Yup, that is true. Didn't know that you were only referring to the Documents case, although the number referenced would have made that clear if I thought about it.

It's 91 now.

The Crumb compiler is written in C. Now they need to take the next step and bootstrap to have a Crumb compiler written in Crumb. It can be done...

If they aren't getting paid, might that instigate some revolt as well?

In case of the US I’d say something must be done, either build more, or adjust economy in order to the middle class to be able to purchase in cities again.

Building more doesn't solve the problem. There is vacant real estate already. If you don't have a tenant for a property, you're operating at a loss. A loss is a tax write off. With some creative accounting, it might be better to keep a place empty and increase the rate no one will pay you.

My solution is to devalue money.

A network of businesses and merchants that based on income, estate assets, and their contribution to the wield as recognized by the network, add a fee or a discount.

If you are living up to your potential doing good things, you can afford to spend less. If you have no income, but you are doing good to your abilities, potentially all basic needs are covered.

If you are hording value and causing harm, then you pay additional fees.

Combined, the fees cover the discounts. The economic gap grows smaller.

Even if it were inspired, it is significantly different the way it's written. I've hit these same challenges before, so I'm more inclined to think it is independent discovery.

Olives are toxic until they've been brined. Those sort of discoveries always make me wonder... who figured out that immersing them in salt water for a month would make them edible without making you sick?

Someone on Reddit once thought I was a bot because I use proper grammar. 12 years of comment history would have demonstrated otherwise, but it wasn't a battle worth fighting.

I'm somewhat okay with someone having posted a screenshot, but 100% agree that we don't need to send traffic to Reddit.

That's one way it is weaker, but moreso because it reduces the entropy. If a user can provide a password which uses 26 letters, upper and lowercase, 10 numbers, and an unrestricted set of symbols, but for the sake of argument we'll say 10, then there are a lot of possible combinations. If you are limited to only 12 possible at max, it is 46^12. Now you impose an artificial requirement that it is one of each, then it actually weakens that further by making the hacker know that there is one of each in there so it is 2626101046^8. Or roughly 910^19 vs. 1.3610^18. I personally try to use passwords which are between 16-20 characters long, or roughly 2*10^33. By restricting the total number of characters and forcing specific combinations, then the password is less cryptographically sound.

Using this calculator, https://bitwarden.com/password-strength/, it is a difference of 3 hours vs. centuries using the bank's mandate vs. only lowercase and 20 characters.

Edit: Something seemed off about the math. Should have multiplied instead of added, but still less sound secure because there are imposed requirements. The biggest issue is that there is an upper limit of 12 characters.

Calckey surprised me. There are many different sites out there right now which has me more favorable about the future than I've been recently.
