In 2020 (yes, not sooner), the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) announced regulations for testing for PFAS in driking water, forcing towns to start testing for PFAS. It turns out, it was there for year, and people were drinking it unknowingly. https://www.sierraclub.org/massachusetts/pfas-mass-water-par...

that's interesting, but one could assume that if some member of a gang points out the leader of the gang to the police, the court would allow them to employ surveillance techniques needed to acquire evidence. Wouldn't that kind of information be sufficient to pass the Probable Cause test?

Can someone explain why a warrant under the federal Stored Communications Act is easier to obtain?

welfare is only needed if the labor market is allowed to create jobs that don't provide viable living wages. If given a choice, people choose well-paid work of reliance on welfare. The problems do start when full-time employment doesn't prevent a family from being poor. This happens because wages were allowed to drop to a level that doesn't support decent human conditions.

My guess that since addressing this angers people who would hope to see wages low so they can maintain their business that has grown to be dependant on cheap labor - it's much easier to talk about lump sum transfers (conditional or conditional) as those do not impact the cost of labor, unemployment or living standards.

It's interesting to see approaches that have been documented to fail in eliminating poverty in developing countries (https://chrisblattman.com/2013/06/27/why-cash-transfers-to-t...) failing in a developed country.

while I encourage the practice, the argumentation of political unpredictability is a little light.

if the fee would be higher on average, do you think that'll attract CPU power from other cryptocurrencies networks?

I really didn't see that :(

most banks don't talk about this stuff, either since their tech is outdated or because they don't think customers are interested in improvements in this field. the new banks in the UK https://monzo.com/blog/ https://www.atombank.co.uk/blog https://www.starlingbank.com/blog/ don't blog about their stack as much as you'd hope - but they do everything online.

what's the advantage for running FreeBSD over linux for your application?

when an attacker is trying to access my Find My iPhone feature, I expect Apple to offer a different version of the their 2fa - either by user pre-authed device along with a special secret (those offline password print outs) or another form (landlines, biometrics, knowledge based, etc.).

remote wiping someone's one can a very serious threat if they don't offer something that handles both the usability requirements and the security of the service.
