  • How does one country prepare to fight the other? With out spies? Like Iran is fortifying against a US strike. But how do they know what we will strike with and vice versa all thru history?

  • The art of war is extremely complex and there is no way to cover everything in one Lemmy comment.

    However, I can summarize: An attacker or defender simply needs to prevent the opposing side from being able to support a war.

    While there are thousands of different things that can support war, it usually boils down to raw manpower, food/supplies, weapons, energy, logistics and communications. Failing to defend, or not having the capability to replenish/repair those things is usually a quick game-over as those items are highly dependent on the other. Anything that supports those key items is a target of the enemy, so those are the things that are stockpiled, fortified or should be rebuilt quickly.

  • Kyiv robbed Pokrovsk to save Zaporizhzhia. The gamble is paying off

  • There are some fairly beast defense lines just past Pokrovsk the Ukraine has had plenty of time to build. Hopefully it works as advertised.

  • From the research papers I have read, psychedelics introduce a degree of neuroplasticity that allows psychotherapy to more effective. (I cannot speak to what types of psychotherapy would be more effective than another as I do not know or understand the differences.)

    I attribute my use of psychedelics to helping me through my alcohol addiction. While it wasn't guided therapy, it was still very controlled and allowed me to "rewrite" how I interpreted feelings and how I handled a variety of different situations. My hallucinations allowed my feelings to become more tangible and physical. I felt I had the opportunity to think differently about difficult parts of my life.

    I suspect proper guidance is similar to what I did to myself: Have a person describe situations and the therapist proposes different ways to interpret those situations. The brain is able to physically form new pathways and sidestep old behaviors.

  • I am making a slightly different point and have a bias to this perspective: https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/publications/SD/19230.pdf

    I am saying that an SSN can be part of a larger validation scheme, not the only key to the castle. Specifically for government sites, SSNs can be linked to IRS data to verify places of last residence. A person generally needs to verify multiple items that are referenced by the SSN before basic authentication can be established and set by the user. (This is part of the full Authentication, Authorization and Access Control triad.)

    An SSN is just a broad level identifier. If you look at many laws around the release of SSNs, the redaction is usually in place to prevent the linking of different documents and other data points.

    If I released my SSN in this chat, I could be fully doxxed in a matter of seconds. It's mainly because there are many legal systems in place that use an SSN as a primary key, of sorts. (It's a bit more than that, as SSNs can be duplicated in some circumstances.)

    So to say, at a high level, an SSN is considered private is absolutely correct. However, it's so easily referenced and obtainable it really isn't fully private either.

    If I was to generate a full list of every possible SSN in the US (which I have done, multiple times), that list is effectively useless to anyone who obtains a copy of it. So, by itself, an SSN is effectively public.

  • SSNs are generally considered public information but how the SSN is linked to other information is usually the more difficult bit to find and it's generally pay-walled. (Any jackass with a business license and a credit card can usually buy background check information for 'hiring'.)

    But no, it shouldn't be solely used for authentication. That is just dumb. However, it can be used as part of a larger verification and validation scheme while building authentication/authorization profiles. In most systems that I have seen that use full or partial SSNs, it is always linked to several other identifiers that need to match.

    Yep. If there is any company that knows what it takes to drive inefficiencies, it's Atlassian. (Fuck them and their software.)

  • European States Claim Control Over Russia's Shadow Fleet in the Baltic Sea - Militarnyi

    Jump

  • I would speculate that it's related to Russia's ability to retaliate and Russian allies willingness to help. Also, Russian reliance on the shadow oil trade is exponentially higher than it was a couple of years ago, so the investment loss is much higher now.

    Most of all, politicians are just slow. I am not extremely familiar with EU politics, but my assumption is that decisions can take much longer to make when multiple countries are involved in taking actions like this.

  • Yeah. This is hail. 2018 Denver area, Colorado. When the conditions are right, I suspect the air currents swirl this against the mountain range until its heavy enough to get launched across the state.

    I wouldn't call this sleet in any country as sleet just sounds too dainty.
