They’re used now throughout healthcare, banking, and defense. So even among some of the most regulated and privacy-conscious spaces, many are using these tools. Refusing to use them outright is a sensible position, but it is going to get more and more difficult.

Should you sign a contract or agree to terms & conditions hidden behind a language barrier?
Reply in thread
That’s kind of what I’m saying; that there are too many to know them all. But this is one look for and try to avoid. So, I may have, but I try not to. Fortunately my bank and most things I do online don’t require it, because I’m not in the US where this has become ubiquitous.

That’s certainly true. But since we are all engaged in contracts we don’t fully understand, it is important to choose with which portions of which contracts one needs to be familiar. Some are both more imporant and more enforceable than others. For instance, I don’t accept binding, mandatory arbitration.

Non-offensive word list for filenames or usernames?
Reply in thread
Using complex, power-hungry matrix algebra to get words that could come from an indexed array in constant time is just about the worst solution of which I can think.
Worth noting, it may be that you meant to generate a list as a one-time operation. That is maybe sensible. I originally interpreted you to mean on the fly generation.

Wow! WTF? Parents being involved seems the minimum. The way I see it, if the school took no action and the parents were intentionally not told, the kid got off easy without a full blown asswhoopin’.

DEF CON bans Meta-style 'pervert glasses'
Defcon is not the place I’d want to wear something like that and make myself a target. Of course, I’d be embarrassed to wear them anywhere, but afraid at Defcon.

My guess is most are very young. Goes to show our civil liberties worldwide, especially since 9/11, have eroded tremendously. Young people have grown up in a world where privacy is a joke and government spying is a foregone conclusion.

Seems like a reasonable approach. Make people be accountable for the code they submit, no matter the tools used.
