  • This is all you really need to know about people's car payments:

    You can find this all over YT. It's insanity. For the record, my wife drives a 2019 Camry. I drive a 2012 Fiesta. Both paid off. I only have the Fiesta because my sister wanted to sell it and it was a good deal for the times where my wife and I both need to drive. We were a one-car family for a few years.

  • What is the strangest math that turned out to be useful?
  • DES is symmetric key cryptography. It doesn't rely on the difficulty of factorizing large semi-primes. It did use a 56-bit key, though.

    Public key cryptography (DSA, RSA, Elliptic Curve) does rely on these things and yes it's a 4096-bit key these days (up from 1024 in the older days).

    www.dispatch.com Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signs bill to restrict bathroom access for transgender students

    The new law will require K-12 and college students to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their sex assigned at birth.

    Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signs bill to restrict bathroom access for transgender students

    I'm sorry to all the trans people who live in Ohio and might visit here that have to deal with our shitty politicians.

    From the article: The new law will require K-12 and college students at public and private schools to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their sex assigned at birth. It also bans multi-occupancy gender neutral restrooms and prevents transgender students from sharing overnight accommodations with peers of the same gender.

    www.dispatch.com Ex-Columbus police officer Adam Coy guilty of murder in death of Andre Hill

    The jury began deliberating around 9:50 a.m. Thursday on whether Adam Coy was justified in shooting Andre Hill in December 2020.

    Ex-Columbus police officer Adam Coy guilty of murder in death of Andre Hill

    Of interest is that Coy was out on bond, which was revoked after the guilty verdict. The FOP and the defense lawyer both think that it's unreasonable for an officer to know a suspect has a weapon before shooting them.

    Ohio transgender candidate disqualified for only including legal name, not former name, on petitions
    ohiocapitaljournal.com Ohio transgender candidate disqualified for only including legal name, not former name, on petitions - Ohio Capital Journal

    A transgender candidate for the Ohio House has been disqualified because she only circulated petitions with her legal name, instead of her former name — and it has put multiple other LGBTQ+ candidates in flux.

    Ohio transgender candidate disqualified for only including legal name, not former name, on petitions - Ohio Capital Journal

    Ohio actually has a law that says if you legally change your name within the last 5 years, it has to be on the petition. In the article it mentions that there is no place for a previous name (dead name in this instance) on the petition, and the Secretary of State’s candidate guide doesn’t mention this requirement at all.

    Apparently other trans candidates had their petitions accepted with no problem.

    The Ohio Senate passed a bill Wednesday with various modifications to the state’s marijuana law.

    Ohio Senate votes to approve changes to the marijuana law. DeWine urges bill's passage - Ohio Capital Journal

    Looks like the Senate bill has gotten better. There is some good and some bad. They're cutting back on home grow and max potency for extracts. They're expunging all convictions on possession of 2.5oz or less, and I think most importantly, allowing people to buy from medical dispensaries for recreational use. Right now, it's legal to possess, but illegal to sell. This should fix that loophole.
