Soon there'll be a marketplace, where you can, for a few dollars, "hire a dev". They will use their identity documents and help you in obtaining a signing certificate.

You are not forcing them if it's mentioned in the gig description before the offer is taken: I need someone to mow my lawn, with this lawn mower, at this time. Those are the details of the gig offer, take it or leave it, and complete it in anyway that meets the requirements of the gig. No different then I need someone to walk my dog, with this leash collar, at this time, and use this biodegradable bag. Or should the dog walker bring his own leash...

You are not forcing them. Say you post a gig to craiglist, I need someone to mow my lawn, with this law mower, at this time. Those are the details of the gig offer, take it or leave it, and complete it in any way that meets the requirements of the gig

Is there a solution that is better than a failover which will not break the TPC connection for the client. Say I have two independent ISP routers, an offshore VPS with a
perfect stable connection, and an old video call software which disconnect the call when the TCP stream breaks. Is there a custom protocol that can retry packets on the other 2nd ISP connection, or even say duplicate all packets like RAID 1 for hard drives, and the VPS+Client will determine which packets made it and which didn't, ensuring perfect connections.

Easy to go around that, companies will just pay an offshore company that can recover the decryption key (and they do so by using part of what you pay them to pay the ransom)

It should be the exact opposite.
When buying fake sunglasses or unknown orgin, always buy polycarbonate plastic lenses as these filter out most UV light.
It's the fake glass lenses that are a culprit and can be very harmful to your eyes.
I have tested this with a UV light.

Why not just issue a warrant to drill a hole for a camera, or use other tech to passively see through walls?
Guess that takes away the fun of brute force entry and trigger happy law enforcement that needs to put their training to use.
Re:Moving from reCAPTCHA to hCaptcha
on Thursday April 09, 2020 @02:33AM (#22820318)
It's not worth a rich person's time to solve captchas, while it is for a poor person. This has lead to captcha solving services, extensions plugins, etc, all which have high latency delay, not over a fast documented API. It would be 100 times easier if cloudfare/google let's you directly buy credits, at the mid-point price between current bid-ask spread, of say 50 cents per 1000 captchas, which would probably last you a few months to a year.

A partial match can still be linked to a unique identify on the backend. Just think of how a fingerprint scanner works, or face / song matching algo's, just need a snippet of data.

Topically on teeth, flouride might have benefits. Great, use flouride toothpaste.
Internally ingested, zero benefits and possible risks, why take the chance.
