I wasn't suggesting any connection, only emphasizing the importance of considering how technology interact with humans.
If you make security unnecessarily burdensome; some will forgo it all together.
@alchemistsstudio I am afraid to say it was my dad. I have moved out, and he has learnt to do better.
@tychotithonus when it comes to security; one of the most important questions to answer is: "how will people react to this?". People is almost always the weakest link in any security chain, that is why locks that are too good is bad.
Some cars are difficult enough to steal that robberies has been on the rise. If they can't break the lock, they will break the person.
@alchemistsstudio yeah I am definitely glad when I can do it.
But as you are suggesting that is not the common outcome.
Unfortunately people expressing microaggression correlate well with people I wouldn't want to challenge unnecessarily.
@alchemistsstudio I didn't know I was doing it for the longest time, because I didn't notice it. When I started to notice it I continued; as I knew it didn't cause to much problems.
I have slowly moved to acknowledge, and disregard:
"I know you're angry, and I don't know how to help you"
@alchemistsstudio I had some success with pretending not to notice.
@tychotithonus I am more worried that people lacking the skill will just give up. If people with marginal understanding believes that quantum computers will make the mitigation they now how to do irelevant; they might be demotivated to do what they can.
Of course that is an argument for education, but everyone can't be an expert.
@tychotithonus I think the iimportant difference of opinion is whatever or not quantum computers will ever be practical.
Blitzscaling(1) is definitely a factor, but it's hardly a religion. I would describe it as regulatory arbitrage(2).

@ipg doesn't it unwrap the video as well?
This helps explain why it's so hard to automate farm labor!
It's not that it's too hard to make a robot pick crops.
It's that humans are really, REALLY good at it. It's hard to make a robot that's BETTER at it than people.
@apophis yes, but it's Linux, you better check with who built your kernel.
Twitter's new encrypted DM system stores your private key material on Twitter-owned services, protected with nothing more than a 4-digit PIN. If hostile, or if legally compelled to, Twitter could easily decrypt all your messages. It's also MITMable and doesn't secure metadata. Use Signal.
@praustrian @thejapantimes You do realise we need steal to build warships?
@dlakelan I fully understand that.
The reason I gave up on arguing against the accumulation of wealth is because I came to understand that is a losing battle, and my energy is spent better elsewhere.
That's why I wrote they generally speaking have popular support. I am not going to argue against something that doesn't directly do harm.
That a person sit on meme coins that according to thin markets is worth a billion dollars, is completely worthless to argue against.
