That's not the story the whistleblower tells. The plan, for example, is to reject entire batches of ballots if a single ballot doesn't pass USPS's criteria.
The idea is to be able to prove that a photo you took was captured by a camera, not generated. That would be helpful in the context of a disputed news story. Would that ever be relevant for a screenshot?
Signing the raw image data wouldn't require also signing the EXIF metadata. For privacy, you could later strip out everything except the raw image and the camera's signature and still prove that the image is unaltered.
To clarify, if the postal service can choose which ballots to deliver, then whoever controls the postal service has a powerful lever to suppress voters they don't like, especially those who have difficulty voting in…
As long as the barcode is not then used to reject delivery of ballots because a flawed federal voter verification system guesses the voters are illegitimate. I have grave concerns about creating a single lever that will…
You should have told them the required phone was missing from the box.
Funny I think of Perl as Bash with slightly saner syntax plus robust regexp. (said with love)
Censorship of things I don't like or don't care about doesn't count. /s
I boycotted with the API nonsense a few years ago and noticed I didn't miss it that much. Haven't really been back since. When a web search leads me back, it seems to have gone downhill with lots of low effort and…

Tell that to the desert-dwelling species that rely on that habitat for survival. Deserts aren't empty wastelands that are valueless without human development.
Ideally, but we know that LLMs will get the blame because of course they will.
Highly location dependent. This is more true in Europe than in America.
The impact is highly geography dependent. For example, the lower Colorado River basin is facing heavy drought, extremely low reservoirs, and federally mandated cuts in water shares. Awkward time to build water intensive…
Can you elaborate? It can't express every mathematical set operation, but it does have UNION, EXCEPT, and INTERSECT.
I'm getting old, but it seems like we're all more ambivalent about new tech. Maybe I'm projecting, but we don't expect tech to be the solution to human problems as much as we used to. The boundless optimism about the…
Are these really local businesses or are they employees forced to take on liability as a condition of employment? Tech has been mislabeling employees as independent contractors for years.
Maybe I'm thinking too literally, but alfalfa isn't grass. It's a legume.
Over half of Colorado River water goes to agriculture, about half of that irrigates alfalfa for animal feed. It's not clear if that's what you meant by capitalism, but lawns are a very small portion of what the water is…
Even better a single video frame because the OCR is demonstrably fallible.
This could be more targeted, like a no-fly list for the internet. Political dissidents, journalists, etc. could be effectively exiled from online activity.
I'm not saying age verification is a good idea, just that a centralized government-mandated implementation is a bad way to do an already bad idea.
Data ownership is just one area of concern. Controlling our access to the internet is another. If age verification was an open standard, we could hope for competition so that we could jump ship from a bad actor. If one…
Anecdotal but my laptop just found 2 open WiFi networks out of 20. One's enough though.
