Pedantic note: The speed of light in glass, optical fiber and water is different from vacuum (much lower). On a certain scale, humanity also knows how to locally alter the speed of light though not to this extent.

Why do you need a cryptographic hash function for detecting duplicates? xxHash, rapidHash or anything that’s fast will do the job. There’s no need to be secure against inverses.

If the numbers are what they claim. They’re going to make it.

Not at all! All of these are real. ETag: expiry tag on HTTP(s), SAML: auth protocol, CSP: constraint sat, BGP: border gateway protocol, haproxy: load balancer, helm: k8s package manager, SOCKS5: http proxy protocol, sameSite/httpOnly: configs for HTTP security… and so on.

Never mind. The answer before me did a much better job.

The US law is very expensive to comply with. Probably the most expensive in the world. Incorporate a subsidiary only and only if there’s a check in your hand. Then too, consider an LLC.

We do not want red and blue functions. Any language that implements async / await as coroutines instead of green threads is making a fundamental CS mistake. https://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2015/02/01/what-color-is-...

Concurrency's correct primitive is Hoare's Communicating Sequential Processes mapped onto green threads. Some languages that have it right are Java (since JDK17 - Java Virtual Threads), Go, Kotlin.

Broken for me as well.

"Sundar is announcing"... not "we are announcing"... speaks volumes as to the fact that this was a unilateral decision.

Hate to be that guy that ruins your security researcher dreams. Your Argon2 memory hard function is useful against mass surveillance and belongs in mass market products. Let's leave it there.

Despite your protests, for an average joe who just wants to stash a secret somewhere and not have it in plaintext, this is absolutely ok.
