Sure it does, but that doesn’t make it bad.

Open source code is not the only solution to secure communication.

You can be extremely secure on closed source tools as well.

If they found specific issues with Signal aside from not being allowed to freely inspect their code base, I suspect we would be hearing about it. Instead I don’t see specific security failings just hat it didn’t make the measure for their security software audit.

As an example of something that is closed source and trusted:

The software used to load data and debug the F-35 fighter jet.

Pretty big problem for 16 countries if that isn’t secure… closed source. So much s you can’t even run tests against the device for loading data to the jet live. It’s a problem to sort out, but it’s an example of where highly important communication protocols are not open source and trusted by the governments of many countries.

If their particular standard here was open source, ok, but they didn’t do anything to assure the version they inspected would be the only version used. In fact every release from that basement pair of programmers could inadvertently have a flaw in it, which this committee would not be reviewing in the code base for its members of parliament.

Not being able to inspect their code vs no passing are different things.

From time immemorial, the purpose of a navy has been to influence, and sometimes decide, issues on land. This was so with the Greeks of antiquity; Romans, who created a navy to defeat Carthage; the Spanish, whose armada tried and failed to conquer England; and, most eminently, in the Atlantic and Pacific during two world wars. The sea has always given man in expensive transport and ease of communication over long distances. It has also provided concealment, because being over the horizon meant being out of sight and effectively beyond reach. The sea has supplied mobility, capability, and support throughout Western history, and those failing in the sea-power test -notably Alexander, Napoleon and Hitler - also failed the longevity one. - Edward L.

Yes.

Just this month I was there and the pizza is a different concept there to be sure.

Street pizzas of thinly sliced zucchini or potato covering bread rounds with olive oil. That’s pizza in Rome.

Focaccia bread like crust with some anchovies and potatoe? Pizza.

Neapolitan style is just a different style again, but the theme is dough is not the delivery agent, it is the primary purpose. The dough is the important bit, with toppings being intended to enhance subtle flavors for it.

Italian pizza is most similar in American expectations of food typically found there, to flatbread dishes. It’s flatbread with some stuff on top to accent it. There is no cheese on most of the pizza I had in the various parts of Italy I was in. Cheese was not an expected component. Healthy or at least flavorful variations on additions to the dough are the goal.

Whether you are in Sardinia, Calabria, or Rome; pizza is pizza dough with local additives.

I have seen French fries on top of pizza in Sardinia, and this was called there “American pizza” :)

Who is we and deep into what?

I simply responded to your statement that you couldn’t think of a way to express the position without sounding as if you were against another people.

It feels very very simple.

The actions of those who cause harm to innocent people are deplorable. Those who order such actions or commit them, should be held accountable. I don’t have to say any proper nouns or even make it specific to this conflict to express that.

“I don’t want the response to horrific things to be more horrific things inflicted on those who have no control of these events.”

That seems pretty cut and dry..

hah, you think these trades are in a 3rd normal form database instead of unsorted excel sheets passed for nightly batch job settling transactions? Nahhhhh fam.

I work for one of the largest private investment firms in the world.

The scrutiny is something I understand well. We have a lot more thorough checks than his firm does. Real name, kids, spouse, girlfriend living in your house, parents, all part of the review process and more. Significant individuals as well as non-person entities you are tied to in any way.

You could, in theory, still get past it, but you would be doing a lot more money movement to do so.

The front running trades amounted to a total of 6% of all the personal trades he made in that period.

I think he was assuming, that inter dispersed in the group and traded in segments of the sums, it would be hard to dig through the mountain to spot the relationships to the company trades.

Two questions for you!

1.) What is the most useful thing we in the Lemmy community can do to help you get that Oscar?

2.) I have a secret Santa this year coming up in a month that I am a part of with some friends. Would you be interested in leaving a comment for a friend of mine in response to this that I can show them a month from now for the secret santa?

“Hey Rome, this is Margot Robbie wishing you a merry Christmas and happy new year?”, or something like that?

Thanks for being cool either way and good luck getting nominated this year!

We do distinguish primary residence vs non-primary residence for property records. Should be doable to remove the corporate purchases that way.
