User’s data was breached, I laughed because I’m not one of them. This isn’t a doctoral dissertation, I don’t care how it works.
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 1 week ago:
Sure, but lying during a process involving security clearance would essentially hang over their head the entire time that they used the credential as a means to get work. It’s not like lying about whether or not you like the food that someone served at a dinner, it sticks.

If you say so, I’ll take your word for it.
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 1 week ago:
I’ve been told that for clearance above reliability that social media use becomes an issue. 4chan was specifically cited to me by the person with whom I spoke. I’d assume that this means any/all alphabet government agencies, but Army was all that I heard about specifically.
“Do you browse or use 4chan?”
“No.”
“OK, good, because you weren’t advancing beyond this stage if you said yes.”
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 1 week ago:
Heard about this just a few hours ago, and have been laughing ever since. This is going to be brutal, there are people who registered with .gov e-mail addresses. As the use of 4chan has been cited to me as potentially disqualifying people seeking security clearance for government, police, or military careers, this hack single-handedly has the potential to torpedo thousands of edgy bois in one fell swoop.

- Comment on What if there is an equal alien civilization also incapable of light speed travel but developed a telescope that could view planets like ours. 2 weeks ago:
OP’s criteria is for an equal (equivalent) alien civilization.
If they were to have what we have, they would be able to detect (infer) atmospheric composition filled with the byproducts of industrialization. It’s not ideal, but IMO we’re halfway there. I can’t recall the system’s designation, but there was some hubbub about one where the Sun’s light was interrupted by some huge mass which seemed to not follow an irregular (hypothetically artificial and intelligently controlled) orbit. I can’t wait for the tech to improve, this is exciting stuff.

“A Louisiana law cedes much of the power of the parole board to an algorithm…”
The people responsible for this imbecile sloughing off of responsibility need to be held to account. The stakes are too high to permit them to claim that “the brain warden got it wrong, but it’s out of our hands”, these are the types of situations that warrant standing directly in front of someone and forcing them justify the damage they’ve caused, and explain how they’re going to rectify their fuck up and compensate the affected parties. What I’m hearing is alarmingly similar to news about current problems with medical insurance and the labour market.

What do you mean if? We’ve been doing that for years, and so far as I understand it, the only reason that we haven’t found any is that there are millions of solar systems to check.
