so your solution is for the government to notify people of those vulnerabilities so others can immediately take abuse of them? because people know that the government makes backdoors on a lot of tech, it’s no secret to people, your “solution” wouldn’t exactly achieve anything. the current government doesn’t care about collateral so it’s not like they’d just stop doing it.
why stop at tech? why not show us where their cameras are located too?
quick, let’s notify the future shooter how government may track him so that he’ll take the exact necessary steps to not be caught before committing a shooting. and the foreign spy. and the person who plans to sell/traffic illegal items. they deserve a right to know exactly how the government tracks them, after all
how do you catch criminals if they know exactly how the government would catch them? saying the government has nothing to hide if it has nothing to fear is very wrong

i mean you’re expected to know the basic functioning of the compiler when you use it
Yea idk why you have downvotes you’re literally just describing capitalism. Has no one seen others volunteering for positions when other people get paid to do the same thing?
350k a year sounds about right for an experienced software engineer at a large tech-related company. That being said I don’t think Huffman, as a CEO, even actually does any engineering…
as a rustacian i cannot thank you enough for notifying me of this
yeah i want evidence
I was about to make a point but I’m scared what results will come up in google

Some people in my family line (a long time ago mind you) had “ÿ” in their surname, it came from a Russian name with “Се” (or maybe it came from the Polish counterpart spelled with “Sie”?) which they spelled with “Sÿ”. Apparently the letter was used in German writing occasionally around that time period. I thought that was pretty interesting.
Tbh I don’t know why people say Blahaj instead of Blaahaj. The second is the “correct” way to differentiate Å and A if you don’t have diacritics. I would think it would be spelled “AO” instead since it’s literally just an A with a lowercase O on top, like how German vowel letters with umlauts (Ä Ö Ü Ÿ) are spelled with an E at the end (AE OE UE YE) when you don’t have diacritics available (since umlauts originated as a lowercase E above a letter). Or like how in Spanish the “correct” way to write Ñ without diacritics is to stick an N at the end like “NN”.* But who knows what goes on in the minds of Swedish people… I’m pretty sure most of them don’t even know that you’re allegedly supposed to write “Å” as “AA”.
*fun fact: the tilde was previously a lowercase “N” above a letter used in Latin & post-Latin Romance languages to replace a following nasal “n/m” after any letter (e.g. Latin “Manu” -> “Mãu” -> Portuguese “Mão”, Latin “Rationes” -> Portuguese/Galician “Razões”/“Rações”/“Rasões”, Latin “annus” -> Spanish “anno” -> Spanish “año”) but it has been reduced to only the letters Ñ in Spanish and Ã/Õ in Portuguese
Words aren’t gendered in Spanish/French/German/etc. It’s called “grammatical gender” but it’s just a way some languages differentiate words/word forms and do adjective/noun/verb agreement, it’s only sometimes loosely correlated with actual gender and is often contradictory when it’s used on living beings.
For example, many words which are used to describe women or female animals in such languages are masculine or neuter gender. Many times words for living things will have one class regardless of the actual gender.
Some grammatical gender types which might make more immediate sense are animacy (animate/inanimate, usually correlated with biotic/abiotic), human/animal/inhuman, countable vs uncountable (the difference between “a plant is here” vs “a water is here”, the second one isn’t grammatically correct in standard English because “water” is an uncountable noun, same with “furniture”, “wind”, “energy”).
A word that a lot of people prefer to use rather than “grammatical gender” is “noun class”, it more clearly conveys what the actual use of that sort of thing in language is. “Grammatical gender” is a pretty outdaded name for it, it was called that in a time where “gender” was more broadly used to mean any class/enumeration/kind/variants/etc. (it has the same root as the word “genre” if that helps it make sense). Only way after the term was coined did “gender” start to refer to what it does now.
My guy, Italian politicians literally publicly idolize the good ol’ days of Mussolini, and talk about Mussolini in a positive light, I think that’s worthy of the title fascist since they’re praising the guy who CREATED FASCISM. The current PM is just a fascist.
And Putin, Orbán, Modi, the AfD are incredibly undeniably fascist. Or at the very least Modi and Orbán are fascist-adjacent (Modi is a sort of Nazi but for Hindus instead of Germans).
I don’t know enough about Dutch politics/politicians to speak of it. But afaik they’re going down a similar path as Germany, Sweden, etc. but even more pronounced. Argentina I don’t know if the word “fascist” is accurate at all but the new president is certainly very far-right.
And in the US Republicans are descending towards fascism, they’ve already taken many of our rights and are in the process of taking more fundamental rights, the things the most popular Republicans publicly preach about and have like half the country’s support over is sickening. The only reason we’re not balls deep into stripping away the rights of anyone who doesn’t fit into the majority categories (christian, white, straight/cis, male) is because Democrats exist (even though elected Democrats just play the “moderate Republican” and are complicit in the current state of the country).

… people with severe forms of disorders like asthma, epilepsy, diabetes, and ALS have low intelligence?
of course, but that’s not an issue with “the government needs to not be able to hide anything”. you can’t just nitpick some examples of where it may do good to justify the position – you open an entire can of worms with the vagueness. should they have to disclose a list of all the people theyre keeping tabs on, how theyre doing so, and the info they hold on them? that would be extremely dangerous for society. should they disclose the exact methods which they use to track people? again, you’re just showing the people they’re tracking (for good reason) how to avoid being tracked. if you just want no backdoors then say “we shouldn’t have government backdoors”, but the only way to properly ensure that the government is illegally doing so is by exposing a whole lot more stuff that may not go so nicely.
i don’t want the government surveilling me illegally, but i find it reasonable that the government can hide a lot of stuff for the sake of all safety. do I trust the government? lol no, but I can’t complain about the government not previously keeping tabs on obvious shooters, then say I don’t want the government keeping secrets like that…
