Some state anti-hacking laws are even broader than the CFAA, says Crocker, the EFF attorney. California Penal Code Section 502, which Crocker describes as “pretty typical” of state-level cybercrime laws, includes language similar to the CFAA’s vague “unauthorized access” prohibition. But it also stipulates that someone who “knowingly accesses and without permission alters, damages, deletes, destroys, or otherwise uses any data, computer, computer system, or computer network” may have broken state law. Crocker says the EFF has argued against prosecutions where the only alleged criminal activity that occurred under Section 502 was the defendant downloading publicly accessible data that the owner of…
I wrote “You Can Be Mean” about a brief toxic experience I had with a manipulative and abusive L.A. model fuckboy. However brief, it had a life-long impact on my understanding of self. Leading up to that experience, I had a history of putting myself in toxic situations and pining for validation from people who treated me poorly. I was stuck in some delusion that I could help abusive people through their trauma and teach them to love me in the way I deserved.I wrote this song when I finally realized that I could choose not to allow harmful behavior…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Sweet Spot (Tanlines 1)? I had the idea for Wren and Luca falling for each other at a boardwalk, and then getting separated, for years. But Wren finding her father through a DNA search came from a podcast I was listening to once. I thought it would be interesting to flesh out the emotions behind that. If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of The Sweet Spot (Tanlines 1), what would they be? “Come Back” by Delectatio, “Fire for You” by Cannons, “Her” by…
For short-lived spring wildflowers such as wood anemone (Anemone quinquefolia) and Dutchman’s breeches (Dicentra cucullaria), timing is everything. These fleeting plants, known as ephemerals, grow in temperate forests around the world, leafing out and flowering early in spring before the trees towering above them leaf out. Emerge too early, and it will still be winter; emerge too late, and it will be too shady under the forest canopy for essential photosynthesis to happen. Over their evolutionary history, these plants have figured out the best timing for their survival. But climate change is altering spring growing conditions, and plant life is…
We have another winner in our hands! The identity of the infamous arsonist was revealed on Fire Country Season 1 Episode 17 while Jake, after feeling the pressure of being wrongly accused, confronted his demons. To say this was a packed episode would be a huge understatement. It served a twist with a storyline we thought we had figured out, explored trauma from multiple angles, and brought two people closer. It didn’t come as a surprise that Colin/Alex was the arsonist because it had been teased for so long; many viewers had almost figured it out. The twist about who he was…
Scientists who study happiness know that being kind to others can improve well-being. Acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can boost a person’s mood, for example. Everyday life affords many opportunities for such actions, yet people do not always take advantage of them. In studies published online in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Nicholas Epley, a behavioral scientist at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and I examined a possible explanation: people who perform random acts of kindness underestimate how much recipients value their behavior. Across multiple experiments involving approximately 1,000 participants,…

Generally, it offered among the least-restrictive terms and equally competitive interest rates, entrepreneurs say. If a borrower failed, SVB was known to handle it more gracefully than other lenders. Effectively, according to language seen by WIRED, SVB would support companies as long as their venture capital backers, often clients of the bank, did not abandon them. “Bankers become a lifeline when you get into trouble, and if they stand by you, I take that seriously,” says James of his loyalty to the now crushed bank. Roger Smith, SVB’s founding CEO, told the Computer History Museum in 2014 that the bank did not sacrifice profits…

Antarctic petrels returned to sea rather than breeding in stormy conditions last yearAGAMI Photo Agency/Alamy Stock Photo Extreme storms in Antarctica prevented tens of thousands of seabirds reproducing last year, and if climate change causes similar events in the future, it could accelerate a decline in numbers. Sébastien Descamps at the Norwegian Polar Institute and his colleagues monitor three seabird species in Queen Maud Land, which makes up one-fifth of Antarctica. The birds – the Antarctic petrel, the snow petrel and the south polar skua – breed once a year in the Antarctic summer, laying eggs at the end of…

Roger Waters’ May 28 concert in Frankfurt, Germany, has been canceled, the city announced in an official statement last week. “The background to the cancellation is the persistent anti-Israel behavior of the former Pink Floyd frontman, who is considered one of the most widely spread antisemites in the world,” the city wrote, according to a translation by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. “He repeatedly called for a cultural boycott of Israel and drew comparisons to the apartheid regime in South Africa and put pressure on artists to cancel events in Israel.”Waters continues his long-running This Is Not a Drill Tour in…
Pretty much any job a person can take comes along with a uniform. Sometimes, it’s an actual required piece of clothing, such as a shirt with the business’ name on it. In other cases, it’s a general type of clothing — business casual, perhaps, or workwear. And, of course, there are the lucky few actors who get to collect a paycheck portraying iconic superheroes and villains on the big screen. But maybe they’re not as lucky as we think.It’s important to remember that no matter how convincing an actor’s performance is, the truth is that they are a human being…
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Facebook’s Oldest Intern? I thought, what a perfect time to write my story with so many people over 45 or even over 40 years old looking to reinvent themselves. Maybe they want to change careers but think they are too old. My story is how I reinvented myself. Think about it. What were the odds of a 60-year-old fitness trainer reinventing himself with the most unlikely of companies? Facebook. I know it’s called meta now, but I hate that name. I sent out tons of resumes, networked, did what…
Argentinian-born mathematician Luis Caffarelli has won the 2023 Abel Prize — one of the most coveted awards in mathematics — for his work on equations that are important for describing physical phenomena, such as how ice melts and fluids flow. He is the first person born in South America to win the award. Caffarelli’s results “are technically virtuous, covering many different areas of mathematics and its applications”, says a statement by Helge Holden, a mathematician at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim who chairs the Abel Committee. The winner says receiving the news was an emotional moment,…

Over four percent of deaths in cities during the summer months are due to urban heat islands, and one third of these deaths could be prevented by reaching a tree cover of 30%, according to a modelling study published in The Lancet and led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), an institution supported by “la Caixa” Foundation. The study results, obtained with data from 93 European cities, highlight the substantial benefits of planting more trees in cities to attenuate the impact of climate change. Exposure to heat has been associated with premature mortality, cardiorespiratory disease and hospital admissions.…

Before the pandemic, office buildings and campuses were often constructed almost to a formula, Parker says. The number of employees, percentage of different types of jobs, and predictions about future headcount growth went in one end; out the other came the number of desks and square feet required. Function ruled over form. The design work could even be boring. Under that model, most offices were structured with about 80 percent of usable, functional floor space for desks and 20 percent for meeting rooms. Designers spent most of their time drawing floor plans with different iterations of desks and offices and tucking…
Sixty miles outside Taking Back Sunday‘s gig at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., last July, the alt-rock band’s driver woke up and informed tour manager Andrew Sprague: “Bus can’t move.” The bus company’s fleet was too depleted to supply a backup, so Sprague spent a day securing transportation for 12 musicians and crew, some of whom hitched a ride on touring mate Third Eye Blind’s bus. But 2023 is different, Sprague says: “Fingers crossed, everything’s moving a little bit better.” Personnel shortages and supply-chain issues continue to plague the touring industry, but as 2023 shapes up to be a…

Look carefully! Mathematicians have invented a new 13-sided shape that can be tiled infinitely without ever repeating a pattern. They call it “the einstein.”For decades, mathematicians wondered if it was possible to find a single special shape that could perfectly tile a surface, without leaving any gaps or causing any overlaps, with the pattern never repeating. Of course, this is trivial to do with a pattern that repeats — just look at a bathroom or kitchen floor, which is probably made up of simple rectangular tiles. If you were to pick up your floor and move it (called a “translation”…
