A strange 'pig couch' scam keeps popping up on Craigslist.

I reached out to the original pig couch artist, Pavia Burroughs, to get her thoughts about the ordeal. Here's what she had to say.

Ok Google: please publish your DKIM secret keys.

Email providers like Google have made the decision, often without asking their customers, that anyone who guesses a customer’s email password — or phishes one of a company’s employees — should be granted a cryptographically undeniable proof that they can present to anyone in order to prove that the resulting proceeds of that crime are authentic. Maybe that proof will prove unnecessary for the criminals’ purposes. But it certainly isn’t without value. Removing that proof from criminal hands is an unalloyed good.

Luisa Neubauer und Carola Rackete stellen die Systemfrage: Wer hat die Macht, Verträge zu brechen?

On paper haben wir den globalen ökologischen Zusammenbruch schon längst vertraglich besiegelt. Wenn man alle Verträge zusammenzählt, die wir Menschen zum heutigen Zeitpunkt schon unterschrieben haben, kommen wir bei einer vertraglich abgestimmten globalen Erwärmung von weit mehr als zwei Grad Celsius an.

Google is dead. We need a new Google (as of 1998).

Introducing Simple Search.

What Gödel Discovered.

In 1931, a 25-year-old Kurt Gödel wrote a proof that turned mathematics upside down. The implication was so astounding, and his proof so elegant that it was...kind of funny.

„Barbaren“.

Die Wahrheit: Hipster im Schlamm.

Es ist eine rechte Männerwelt. Toxische Torftrottel brüllen rum, saufen Met und hauen sich und anderen aufs Maul. Nicht untypisch für archaische Gesellschaften labern sie zwar in einem fort von Ehre, haben aber offenbar kein Problem damit, ihre nichtsahnenden Gäste beim Sleepover kaltblütig im Schlaf zu massakrieren. Oder, frei nach Kant: „Das Leben des Einzelnen endet dort, wo die Ehre des Anderen beginnt.“
