I warmed up to CSS this year. Before that it was this cryptic thing with seemingly infinite change-try cycles. What happened was that I discovered some of the new features, and was able to greatly simplify and beautify…
Doing well has two dimensions (at least). One is the degree of digitalization, and here I think youre right, Denmark is doing well. The other dimension is security, and here Denmark is not doing so well. As all security…
What you write is correct, but it wouldnt make any difference in this case. The information would have been leaked anyway. It will take a whole new approach to confidential information to really make a difference. I…
That is also my impression. So I wonder how they caught this. It will be interesting if they are going to say so at some point.
According to their announcement, the names and addresses of people with protected address, were not leaked.
A zoom button would have been cool for this one :-)

His theory was that the two brain halves communicated through inner voices. Wernickes Area, on the left side, communicated with the similar area on the right side. WA is where we comprehend speech, so Jaynes theorized…
Greenland is not part of Europe. But they are part of "Rigsfællesskabet" (The Kingdom of Denmark). So part of Denmark but with a high degree of autonomy. Regarding "European values", I think they are just Western values…
That is a puzzle thing. The word cube is used very loosely. Douglas Hofstadter wrote about it back when Rubiks Cube was still new. In this case it is a stretch, but the Rubiks Cube inspiration is so clear, that I think…

I agree, and the very low price of used books that have writing in them, suggests that this is how people feel in general. I have begun to write a page (by hand) summarizing my thoughts after reading a book, and put it…
I basically agree with you, and I have a profile on LinkedIn. A number of companies only announce job openings on LinkedIn, and if you are looking for a job (as I am) you would handicap yourself by not having a profile…
Yes I know. When I wrote Turing Machine, I was thinking about the classical determinstic Turing Machine. Im not super knowledgable about Quantum Turing Machines, but as far as I know, they dont do better than the…
Both P and NP are computable. That is, a Turing machine can compute both of them. Those quantum processes are interesting. Take the random numbers generated from radioactive decay. They are (after some cleanup) truly…
I dont know what to say. I relate a personal experience. Yours was different. Good for you. My problem was not using apps, but the other stuff. I did as I was used to, stubbornly bumbling around, feeling sure I would…
Im an iPhone user. I want it to take as little space as possible physically and mentally, and try to use it as little as possible. My experience has been that it was easy learning to use it by just bumbling around. That…
I think what is much more important, is that it exposes the shortcomings of the Danish SSN system. It was introduced in 1968, when Denmark was a high-trust society. It was used as a sort of password and key for looking…
Yeah, he seems confused to me. Well meaning, but not so consistent. What is good is that he is a wrench, that throws itself in the works repeatedly. This is a healthy thing to have.
That is right, but one thing is not like the other. You have always been free to set expiry low on your own certificates, but that is not the same as enforcing it on everyones ceritificate.
/etc/hosts scales like a lead balloon. For small groups of servers, with limited egress communication, it might nevertheless make sense. And then go for it, by all means. As a general replacement for DNS, not likely. It…
I havent looked into the details of either, but what would prevent Germans from using the Austrian implementation?
You can get that, even if you have a phone with the app on it. MitID is perfectly okay with that. At login time you will be prompted for your token code, but there is an option to switch to the app ("Skift til MitID…
That sounds like an unnecessary EU standardization. Having the same timezone in Poland and Spain possibly made sense 30 years ago, but now that all communication goes through computers of one kind or another, time…
