these so-called "locks" are nothing more than technological solutions to social problems

Avatar

ok but i do think locks are instructive right. because most locks are not a technological solution. i walk up to a lock on a construction site and i go oh that one's shims, oh that one's rakeable. (and i am absolutely abysmal at locksport.) even my bike lock is only secure because the public looks at your weird if you carry an angle grinder around.

And so the vast majority of a lock's function is social--it gets rid of any possibility that somebody "didn't know they weren't supposed to be there" and makes it clear to the lockpicker (and a court, potentially) that what they are doing is illegal and will be punished using state violence

compare physical security vs digital security. where like, given the international nature and anonymity of the web it's often very difficult to prosecute someone. So things have to actually* be secure against anything an attacker can try. they have to actually find a technological solution to security. whereas overwhelmingly most stores and businesses are vulnerable to somebody kicking in a window and hopping inside. (Which is acceptable bc it's typically easier to arrest someone irl and so it's much higher risk for the attacker)

I find this an odd framing because it implies that a technological solution only counts if it's perfect. Which further implies that there are zero technological solutions, because everything is theoretically breakable on a long enough time scale

The thing about security is that there's two layers to it: the first is about preventing access, and if that fails the second is about preventing access from being unnoticeable.

A lock that requires an angle grinder to get past is one that is very noticeable to any onlookers watching a thief and takes longer than picking a lock does. All of that makes it less likely your bike will be stolen! Technological solution!

A door with a solid lock that can't be picked might have an easily breakable window next to it. But breaking a window is loud, much more obviously criminal than lockpicking, can be seen across the street and reported for hours afterwards, and most importantly means the next day you know someone broke in immediately.

Also, when choosing between a locked house and an unlocked house, thieves will usually prefer an unlocked house because why do extra work and create more suspicion. "I don't have to run faster than the lion, I just have to run faster than you" is where the effectiveness of an awful lot of security comes from.

I hate you all. I have hated you for millennia…except you, my lord. I merely want to put you in a jail, and fill up the jail with acid once for every time you made a frivolous remark, or ate peanuts in a Cohort Admiralty meeting, or said, ‘What would I know, I’m only God.’ Then, at the end of a thousand years, you would say, ‘Mercy, I have learned not to do any of these things, because I hated the acid you put on me.’ And I would say, ‘That is why I did it, Lord. I did it for you, and for your empire.’ I often think about this.

Yes and I LOVE it. So much. I never imagined her so free and expressive, but I completely love her portrayal like that.

health bars with little offset delayed bars as health is subtracted are one of the subtler and finer tricks in modern game design.

spellcasting isn't like academia it's like writing. spellcasting is about saying "you know what would be really fucked up?" and then making it happen anyway. because you can.

my spellcaster's license has been revoked by the board of magical ethics .

someone just called the science museum to complain that this eclipse wasn’t as good as the one in 1979.

he wasn’t even a visitor, he was just mad about the eclipse not being visible without special glasses and wanted to complain to me about the eclipse “not being dark enough” for ten solid minutes

“I looked at the sky and all I saw was birds! On the news they showed in south carolina where you could see venus and all the stars, why couldn’t we see those here?”

in honor of today’s eclipse, throwback to the best phone call I ever got at my old job

nothing worse than when the person drawing your blood fails the medicine AND sleight of hand check

(-1) ough (-4 ) agh! (-14) agh!!! (-3) AH! (-11)

My veins are very well hidden and one time after stabbing me several times the phlebotomist literally said to me "I think I need to stop now so I don't traumatize you" and brought in like three other people to try and figure out how to get blood out of me without having to stab me ten more times.
