Forward-Backward algorithm before there were all sorts of resources and explanations on how it works online.

The wikipedia page for it explains it well.

Not even dual boot. Just depending on the password/pattern entered, log in as a different user. It's possible to do in Android as an app. I've been meaning to write one, but it seems like lots of work and upkeep.

Also Northgard - the other game by this developer - had a pretty dull story unfortunately.

Ideally it would be someone like David Gaider doing the story.

What about the people under 18 who I assume could take the poll and also people who didn't go to vote but took a few seconds to take the poll on Telegram?

Also what about all the babushkas who most likely voted for Lukashenko but don't have a smartphone?

This is not to say that more people didn't vote for the opposition than the official numbers state. But Lukashenko still could have won.

Wouldn't this be different since we know the maximum number and the distribution?

The solution wouldn't be to still skip 1/e if you got something like googol - 1 on the first try.

It would be quite laborious to figure out "normal" user traffic patterns and then adjust to those. You would have to collect data on a bunch of users and then shape your own traffic to match.

Only makes sense if you are doing it for a bunch of people and at that point you are another VPN provider.

I just tried hotbot and it seems to be better for programming-related questions than duckduckgo.

I wonder if they use mostly Google for the backend.

Why? Because they had a code exec vuln in 2017?

On the CoyIM site it says: "Not yet audited. Do not use for anything sensitive."

Regarding SMS interception, you can do it with every other messenger that uses this technique, which is basically every messenger that doesn't use passwords.

Regarding the nonce attack, it looks like the devs responded and said it was because of poor random numbers source on the client, which I personally don't understand as a justification. However, they said they'll remove it in the next update and that nonce has been "0" up until now.

Regardless, all of these messengers for cell phones aren't great if you are paranoid. That's because the hosting company's servers have all kinds of data on you as it is. Your contacts, access to SMS, access to location, camera, mic, photos, and all the files on the device.

This is true for all the messengers that are currently in widespread use.

If you are paranoid, use Pidgin with OTR plugin.

Problem with such use of statistics is that we underestimate black swan events.

Humans are intuitively better at it. For example, it would be impossible to predict something like 911 event with such frequentist analysis.

Also impossible to predict some sort of nuclear disaster terrorist act that never happened before and could take a million lives.

Another thing to keep in mind is the "missing life" (dying young) and quality of life after disease. That's why something like Alzheimer's seems a lot worse than heart disease.

Look up Stumbleupon on google trends. Tons of users left immediately after their redesign.

It might be that people enjoy living without children for as long as possible in the current western economic/cultural climate.

This age might keep increasing because those who try too late won't reproduce. So it's passive selection for longevity.
