“by using this site you agree to…”

I’m not using your site. And I agree to nothing. Now, go GET for me.

Sigh. They should at least select a more notable font. Maybe something representative of their prowess. I vote for Comic Sans MS or Papyrus. Both, imo, great choices.

I know Calibri is not royalty free, so I thought maybe that was the reason. But checking now, neither is Times New Roman. So, it seems the reason of “be a dick” is holding water tight so far. :facepalm:

What font was it before Calibri?

Calibri is easier for those with dyslexia?

If this were true, and they were actual researchers, they wouldn’t keep it “under wraps”. They would release it to the corporations with a deadline for patching, then release it to the public after that deadline. You know… like any other good cybersecurity researcher would.

and not a Reddit karma farm story - which it likely is

It is, in fact.

It’s not necessary, since then it would not be a jury of his peers.

It’s the picnic episode, when they found out they were pregnant.

So… a simple lookup table. What’s the big whoop? Oh, wait, they used the word AI and Quantum!

As always, he created a delightful video!

That’s only one line.

Cybersecurity startup AISLE

Spelled ezel, but pronounced aisel, it means ass in dutch lol

I’m not a fan, either. And, the thing is, we’ve seen similar companies pop up out of nowhere that claim to be private, but are just honeypots. The fbi did one once, and there is nothing stopping them from doing it again.

I thought about this a lot, and came to the inevitable conclusion that not naming the angel investor is the same as naming them as a government organization or an organization that makes money from privacy erosion. He didn’t say it wasn’t any of them, which lends to the conclusion that it is, in fact, one of those organizations.

Thanks!

It is puzzling. I finished reading the article, and it could be that Calyx was doing things Nick didn’t like, so left (as opposed to Nick doing things that Calyx didn’t like). But, without his statement, it’s their word against his silence. If this phone company is genuinely what he states, it could be a game changer. But I’m not going to trust it at all, until it’s fully proven and he comes out with his statement.

What were their (Tommy Web and Oliver Scott) official statements on the matter? I mean, besides the generic one that Chiryu gave of them having different goals/visions. Or was that it? If so, it seems that Calyx wanted to continue with providing their privacy products and Nick maybe didn’t fully agree with that, and, so, they parted ways. Now he has a carrier. Seems off.

Few is three or more. You have a couple twix up your sleeve.

First off, $27,574 is $13.25 per hour, assuming the standard salary 40 hour weeks or $15.15 assuming hourly employee’s standard 35 hour work week. This got me thinking: if kingreggieisreal got simple division wrong, what else did they get wrong…

Keeping in mind that conversion rate records from the time are lacking, from what we can surmise, in 1843 (when this story took place), a week’s 15 shillings (£0.75) was worth about £110.90 today ($147.84 US). This would be about £5,766.8 per year ($7,688.76 US), or £2.77 per hour ($3.70 US) assuming 40-hour weeks, or £3.17 per hour ($4.22 US) assuming 35-hour weeks.

I’m not really sure what maths kingreggieisreal is using, but it seems flawed.
