My pleasure :) I do astronomy outreaches in schools as well and it’s awesome when I have a chat with someone who’s really interested. The internet can be a wonderful place when you want to learn something :)

Fair point :)
No no... no no... no. It’s not the difference between 4 character & 6-character pins. It’s what was encrypted behind/by those passcodes. In iOS 7, the passcode encrypted just the Mail app. So, Apple could bypass the passcode and give you data other than the Mail app from any phone that the authorities wanted. In iOS…
Yup, the A7 was supposed to be a 4dr coupe... It’s like the A5 is to the A4 what A7 is to the A6. So, we should see an A2 sedan with a redesigned A3 4dr coupe and an A9 which would a long coupe version of the A8. And then S models of each with RS models as well. Ouch, my brain.
WTF are these car companies smoking? We had the extremely stupid BMW naming convention change only to mess it up even further with new 2dr & 4dr models & GT & SUV versions. And now Audi??! The only reason the A5 sells well is because it looks sleek with a coupe design. Just get the damn RS models out here and 3…
To be fair, this isn’t new... we’ve known about these bright spots for a very very very long time, they’re called sunspots. You see them as dark spots in other images where temperature is depicted (they look dark because they’re relatively cooler than the surrounding regions) but they look bright in images where…
GKN is a huge conglomerate and made their big name in the aerospace industry making everything from landing gears to doors & wing structures. Just an FYI...
I was wondering why he hadn’t done a piece on this encryption thing. His op-ed kinda segments are really well done.
To his point, yes, Apple did cooperate with the Chinese but against his point (and as I just replied to his comment), the 2 cases are not similar at all, except the fact that Apple was on the receiving end of a government request.
My God! We would love to have your logic on this side of the table... you present well thought out arguments, just on the wrong, dark side - just better grammar and more research, especially on that Chinese argument - because it’s a very different case than Apple v FBI.
Are they still hoarding/advance-buying fuel? I thought they stopped doing that after United lost out.
It sounds like they fit an acronym expansion to the acronym... they came up with FAIR and then fit in words. Either way, it’s only fair that FAIR is enforced fairly quickly.
I knew I was already too late to comment on this article.
I guess it depends on what the fishies like/hate.
Well, in this case, it’s ‘whenever the FBI wants’ = ‘when they have a court order’.
No, no no no no. The “brand new product” is a tool or custom iOS that does away with 10-tries-wipe-iPhone feature (irrespective of whether Farook enabled it), time lag between tries & the passcodes be entered via a machine and not manually. Mind you, FBI stated in their Congressional hearing that Apple has to make…
Well, this is not the first time the issue has come up. Companies have tried to fight it in the past but none of them actually required a company to make a brand new product to comply with a court order. So, there’s that.
A cheat-sheet for all the questions that invariably pop up on the Apple v FBI threads:
Well, yeah, it’s like getting pulled over for doing 100mph on a deserted road for reckless driving. The law is “don’t speed”. At the very least, you have to agree he was speeding through neigbourhoods & parking lots.
