True, but if all the data was encrypted, then the drive formatted it would require physically dismantling an HDD in a clean room to recover data, for SSDs the wear leveling makes it hard to fully erase anything, but again, after encrypting and formatting the cost of the tools needed to get the data back are well above the potential benefit (i.e. there are easier ways to get people's personal info)

Can we talk about the weird painting/photo of Mitt and his seven kids?

Seven? Those are amateur numbers

Edit: linked the wrong Japanese Serial Killing Nurse… Miyuki Ishikawa was investigated for neglecting 84 neonates, indicted for 27 and found guilting of killing 5.

I think you mean a "Pixel" because most Samsung customers only care that it's "Not an iPhone"

I can imagine some tweaks to help improve how karma is implemented:

  • Use Bayesan Inference to produce a 'shit/shinola score' for contributors instead simple up/down vote totals

  • Experiment with different recency biases for the score; you can trust that people will change over time

  • Generally figure out what you'll be using karma for and make sure you have a way to measure how well it's working
