I don't know about Patent law, but it should be made illegal to mask renting as selling. That would be first step to let consumers know. Like in this Lexmark case - if you are required to return the cartridge, then this transaction is not sale. And on and on, same with electric cars where you do not own the battery.
It should have NOT SECURE written in big red letters - everyone has your private key, so there is no security at all.

I don't think Jobs would be complete happy with computers that are becomming increasingly difficult to repair? I look at that new MBP, and wonder what's serviceable in it? Yes, I know most people don't care about the ease of repair of their computers, but all that adhesive? Call me old school, but I like screws, and a few modular replaceable components.
(I don't know what replaceable on the new MBP. It looks like one big motherboard? I might be way off base?)

I know Jobs had a great sense of aesthetics, but he seemed like he had a very rational side too? I could picture him thinking most people won't care about repairability on products under a thousand dollars? I don't think he would he would be o.k. with that same philosophy on a 5 grand computer?

I think the last thing he would want for Apple products is any scuttlebutt along the lines, "There products are great, until they breakdown?" A major part of their success is the beauty(not just aesthetic) of their hardware?

Sometimes, I really do think Jobs was Apple? Sorry, under his leadership, I don't recall many complaints/bugs not actively being solved? Yes, there were always Apple haters, but even the worst complainers had less to complain about--right up to his death? I recall, even when he was in home palliative care; he was still designing/thinking about Apple products? I know he was probally difficult to work for--maybe mean, but I really miss the man!

The American Dream Is Dead
>Programming languages are also part of the problem. We've wasted so much time reinventing the wheel, over and over again

That's a good thing.

If we didn't we'd still use stone or wooden wheels -- like in ancient times.

People say "reinventing the wheel" when in actuality it's "improving the wheel".

CL is not 60's LISP, Rust is not C, C is not Algol, Haskell is not ML, and Go..., ok, Go is like Algol 68.

>I don't know what form the next computing architecture will take, but I do know there will come a time when the notion of using a 'programming language' to get things done will seem quaint.

This I feel is too hand-wavy ("there must be a better way").

Programming language is sort of like math -- logical instructions.

The scientific underpinning of programming is algorithms. And those are expressed by programming languages.

We cannot really replace algorithms with anything else, like we cannot get rid of equations in math.

We might abstract them more ("robot, write a program to do X for me") or less (some "visual programming" thing), but in the end, programming and algorithms are part and partcel with solving problems.

So, these guys bought a COMODO wildcard certificate and then stuck it (public and PRIVATE parts) on Github for anyone to download.

Wonder how long before COMODO revokes this cert?

If you have a test domain you can stick it on CloudFlare and get a certificate for free without the private part becoming public.
I'm not suggesting that this makes it acceptable to use in production - but am I right in thinking that you'd be unable to MITM the connection if the server/client both support perfect forward secrecy?

Suggesting Apple is will always be on top with no possible contenders to their crown is strikingly similar to the way people talked about Microsoft in the late-90s. And Nokia before them. And IBM before that. And countless other businesses that dominated their respective industries.

> Apple will continue to dominate the smartphone market, making obscene amounts of money; they will probably also continue to innovate

Apple is certainly going to continue making a lot of money from the iPhone but they haven't innovated a single thing since the iPad. Actually, they've been playing catch up on pretty much every single front and they are still way behind on quite a few (e.g. wireless charging, NFC, ...).
Why invest in Apple if so much of its value is wrapped up in one product line? This is the challenge facing Apple.
While I despise the SSL cartel, there are many problems with this attempt at a solution.

Let's Encrypt began testing their free SSL certificates this week and will formally launch November 16th (two months from now)

https://letsencrypt.org/2015/08/07/updated-lets-encrypt-laun...

However they have no plans for wildcards and you have to renew every 90 days (automation possible).

They also do not have their intermediate certificate working yet (but will have to by November).

But if you do not need wildcards, the StartSSL free certificate has been an option for a long time:

http://www.startssl.com/?app=33

(startssl works in all browsers and has a 1 year renewal)
In every major market Apple competes in they have never looked healthier, and their competition has never looked weaker and with so few cards left to play.

I don't think so. The iPad, iPod and iTunes sales are suffering and the Apple Watch and Apple Music are lagging and facing huge obstacles in making headway in the market.

So, this leaves Apple with the iPhone and Mac products that are keeping it afloat and if we factor into our calculations that the iPhone is getting old and slowly tiring, we can see that Apple will be in for a bumpy ride in the next 5 - 10 years that it should be ready for.
Ongoing? Maybe not. But, rather than talk IBM in 1984 (which is probably a bad example vis-a-vis Apple products and their breakthrough impact), I'll refer you to the facial tissue breakthrough product of 1980: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLa0IGW1k8g

The most of cheap "rasperryPi compatible touch screens" use SPI interface (GPIO) which has very limited data rate, only suitable for 320x240 / low FPS graphics without any kind of HW acceleration. HDMI compatible touch screen are typically more expensive than $60.

Oh boy, if you thought drivers hated you when you were on a motorbike, just wait until they see you on a bicycle. It's like waving a giant red flag in front of a bull, while someone is sticking it in the balls with a hot poker. It doesn't help that driving education skimps on the road rules governing car-bicycle interactions and the rights of bicyclists on the use of roads, so a lot of drivers believe in made-up folklore rules.
In my (anecdotal) experience the relation between price an quality is not just not proportional - it seems to be completely spurious after a certain minimum-price is reached.

You can get very high quality and long lasting stuff for reasonable prices. People who are poor though tend to not investigate products or reflect on decisions they make in that area. This leads to buying overpriced and unnecessary gadgets - often of very low-quality.

The shoe-analogy doesn't really work in my opinion nowadays that manufacturing is industrialized and automated.

I mean, if you have a remote server- it's lawful for them to snoop (by their own law), but it certainly makes it harder, to gain access and maintain access- as these systems may be wildly different and hosts will be varying degrees of paranoid.
I agree entirely with your frustrations about today's web, but don't forget that yesterday's web was filled with ridiculous Flash-only navigation sites.

There seems to be a force that always pushes technology to crud up with bogus features until the brink of usability.

Probably caused by the fact that developers tend to develop on above-average machines, and therefore will always target slightly above-average requirements, dragging everything upwards.

If they were using standard connectors for the display, why would having long life span be useful? I can just use a newer one (better specs) when time comes and can swap with a new one from another vendor if needed be.

I spent this weekend creating a small micro-controller system (freescale uC) with an attached tft lcd+touch, the latter cost me less than a 1/4 of this display and uses standard connections and readily available datasheets.

In their own words, the raspberry pi display uses interface signals that most other manufactures shunned due to several issues (EMI,etc) and their connector is hard to find on any other sbc currently in the market.

The display is huge compared to the raspberry pi board, what is the use case, considering the low resolution? Why go through all the trouble of using the connector on the pi instead of its other standard hdmi port ?

> RAM is not stressed: of the 1015MiB of RAM, 182MiB are free, and only 6MiB of swap is used. We typically don't worry about RAM on Linux systems until the swap space used exceeds twice the physical RAM

That's a bad metric. The question is rarely "does this machine use too much swap". The problem comes when performance is degraded because pages that were evicted out to disk are now needed again, and those processes wait for I/O. swapin and swapout are the relevant figures.

edit: (If you're only using 6M of swap, it doesn't really matter, of course. But if a system uses any substantial amount of swap, you want to check rate, not quantity.)

After working in healthcare myself for a while, I've always wanted to see it be a service that was paid for by the customer directly (at least hypothetically). This concept of not knowing costs would be completely unacceptable in any other industry, but it seems that people are reluctant to price things partly out of a fear of being able to do cost-benefit analysis on care and thus on human life. Direct billing would force hospitals and other care givers to be able to give cost estimates up front, and then market forces would help bring costs down as providers would compete and patients could shop around. I'm aware that this might not be optimal in all situations (eg emergency care), but runaway costs and opaque cost-benefit relationships are not helping things.

I remember hearing that 20% of total healthcare costs are spent in the last 2 weeks of people's lives, and perhaps having more transparent costs would help avoid these costly, frequently unpleasant, and ineffective interventions.

Of course, transitioning to this would be impossible overnight, but it's an interesting thought experiment. There would still be the option for catastrophic insurance, but otherwise it would be interesting to see market forces play a role.
There are two entities in question: you and the object.

You are within the jurisdiction of the U.S. And can be held in contempt, charged (even in absentia), etc.

The object is now within the jurisdiction of Mexico so it gets complicated. A Mexican court can be petitioned to require the entity that (unwittingly or not) possesses it to turn it over, etc.

The difference with data Ina server is that a company has the power to turn it over regardless of where it's stored and the U.S. Government is having their hat on that.

By physically locating servers in other jurisdictions you have to comply with their laws too and that gets complicated. You can end up Ina situation where one government doesn't recognize the authority of the other and you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Personally I find the constant overreach of the U.S. Government to be appalling and entirely short term I it's thinking.

A word of warning about solutions to this problem. The "easy" version states it this way: the mapping you want takes (x,y) to ((ax+by+c)/(gx+hy+i),(dx+ey+f)/(gx+hy+i)) for some a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i -- a general "projective transformation". If you decide ahead of time exactly what rectangle you want to map to, you have 8 constraints on a..i (two coordinates for each of four corners) and one irrelevant degree of freedom (if you multiply all of a..i by the same constant, nothing changes) so you have "exactly enough" information to find those parameters. So you solve the equations and you're done.

This works, provided your measured positions are perfectly accurate, but it isn't the best you can do. The reason is that a single projection actually has one degree of freedom less than a general projective transformation. (Three parameters to say where your camera is located. Three to say how it's rotated. One scaling factor. Total is 7 rather than 8.) This means that there's an extra (slightly hairy) constraint on the parameters a..i, which turns out to mean that the aspect ratio of the rectangle you're mapping to is determined for you.

Imposing that constraint will give you (1) more information -- you won't have to know ahead of time what aspect ratio you have -- and (2) a more accurately estimated transformation.

You can find more details of this stuff in, e.g., this PDF document: http://people.csail.mit.edu/bkph/articles/Harmful.pdf .

How about an IP address for every person?
Yeah this should be revoked. Mozilla's CA acceptance programs mandate that the CA revokes the cert if the key gets compromised, and I presume others do too.

> If you have a test domain you can stick it on CloudFlare and get a certificate for free without the private part becoming public.

It all comes down to the fact that CA's don't want you to sign your own certificates, even when it's one of your subdomains unless you pay the big bucks.
Best thing to do it still to create your own CA and sign certs for these kinds of things since it's meant for testing and development anyway. It's not that hard, anyone can use some command line can do it.
