There are functional reasons, yes. But the best business case for internet dev is a frontend hits a backend, and that's it. The relationship is purely request/response payloads. It's transactional, massively simplifies development and qa, and better encourages the notion that every endpoint should be able to provide, as well as consume services.

It wouldn't, but one can sense some logic behind that question in this context. Additionally, advertisers are very familiar with dealing with heaps of unreliable information.
But it takes a good bit of time for something to become "traditional"; long enough that it becomes hard to figure out who, exactly, owns the copyright to what, as in this case. Limiting the term of copyright also has a function of promoting legal certainty: with relatively short terms, if there's a controversy, the court can have living witnesses and a fairly complete record, vs. a few strands of unconclusive evidence like here.

They did say, "most studies are more about how much copyright protection is enough", to be accurate. :/
Yeah, it was optimized for the market segment that was expected to have money for film and cameras at the time.

There are far worse things to complain about that happened to black people at the time (from Jim Crow to the KKK and seggregation) to make film optimizations anything else than an aside to the whole story.
I hear where you're coming from, but you can't make that blanket statement.

If you are a social care worker for people in rural areas, or you have a job in the city (roving IT support for schools, private house appraiser, Meals on Wheels volunteer, etc.) then you cannot relocate closer, you cannot walk, and cannot easily do any of the other options you suggested.

The infrastructure is such that buying a more efficient vehicle is an affordable stop-gap remedy, and doable now. Changing to another way of living is much harder, and takes a lot longer.
The game industry also brought us Cities Skylines, Minecraft, Witcher 3 — popular, no effective DRM, no issue with people pirating, as most end up buying the game anyway.

It will end up in better quality for everyone if only those products people are willing to pay for exist.
Its a literal mindset. The car has to perform to a standard during a test. The test procedure is written that way.

So, ok, it will perform during the test to the standard. End of thought process. Not really cheating; just conforming as written.

You think that's too easy an answer? Let me tell you about our phone module on the old Unisys NGen series. It was a programmable answering machine, plug a phone line into it, then a handset (remember those?). All worked fine.

Then we tried to sell it in Germany. They had a regulation: phone handsets had to be connected directly to the wall. The idea was, presumably, they didn't want any other equipment failure to compromise phone service, which was arguably part of safety/emergency equipment.

But our answer was, build a special cable, runs from the wall to the handset. There's a dongle on the end there, that splits the signal to run on another wire to the computer. But internally, the wire connection ran from wall to dongle to computer, then back to the handset. Electrically, same as in USA.

This wasn't a subterfuge. Heck, the German qualifying agency helped us put it together. It was how you got things done in a highly regulated society.
Most manufacturers aren't all-in on diesel, which was VW's strategy. They fudged the tests to have low-consumption during road tests but still pass NOx lab testing (NOx being a side-effect of good combustion in a diesel engine, which you want for better fuel efficiency and to limit particulate matter)
I wonder if this is just a shortcut to create a filter. That would make the most sense, at least.

Here, in the US, untaxed diesel is dyed red. The authorities typically don't bother checking passenger vehicles but commercial trucks are routinely checked. If the fuel is darker than some arbitrary limit, there are severe fines imposed.
I do computer forensics and have been involved with many IP theft cases. I do know what I'm talking about. "Never walk away from a former employer with code on your computer" is indeed a categorical imperative to live by.

- Never walk away from a former employer with code on your computer.
- Never walk away with an employer's property.
- Never walk away with a functioning email account.
- Never walk away with documents.
- Never walk away with paper.
- Never walk away with anything.
- Just walk away.

> remove sources of income that people find relevant in exchange for ads that some higher up in marketing thinks relates to its users.

Yes, that's a move toward integrity and away from endangerment and excess income.

If "some higher up in marketing" doesn't understand their users, the problem is they're out-of-touch and that should be corrected, as opposed to endangering user's privacy.

Currently, my tiny site operates this way, with hand-chosen Amazon ads and no google Adwords.

This will actually be a useful feature for me. I consistently get e-mails from a procurement business somewhere half-way across the world that somehow thinks that my gmail address is that of one of their employees. I routinely get CC'd on e-mails containing invoices, BOMs, customer inquiries etc. I've tried reporting as spam, phishing, and even replying to all on message that includes customers of the business to say "I'm not who you think I am and you probably don't want strangers seeing these e-mails", all to no avail and these messages just keep ending up in my inbox. They're not always from the same person (it's a mid-sized company with varied customers).

Now I can just block them. I guess I could have used filters to do that, but this seems more convenient.
Yes but to lower NOx the CO2 goes up if they lower temps.
I agree with this, I've been using Angular for a while now and like it. Every time I read these criticisms of Angular, I always think...compared to what?

For example, I don't find fixing occasional performance issues when using two way binding a big deal. Two way binding makes my UI code much more concise and free from bugs concerning keeping models and the DOM in sync. I've worked with Backbone before for instance and found that dealing with listeners and syncing manually was a huge source of bugs.
That is a /r/programmingcirclejerk level comment.

Everything else in the piece was pretty solid, as usual.

I want to hijack the bit on the EU cookie law to bring up a recent annoyance though: does anyone else here have their browser configured to block cookies by default? I do, on my main browser. Have you got any idea just how many sites completely fail to work at all with cookies turned off? I don't just mean sites that require a login or paywalled sites like NYTimes, and I don't mean sites where some functionality is crippled. I mean sites like Washington Post, which (apparently intermittently) fail to render any content at all. For those of us that are actively taking some steps to protect our privacy, the web is gradually becoming outright hostile.

I interpreted their mistake as mistakenly 'thinking they could get away with it and come out with more money', as you said.
Not a lawyer, but here's how I see it:

Lawsuit: "You approached me and gave me false information that has cost me money. Pay me to cover all my losses resulting from this false information."

How (or even whether) the defendent benefited from the losses doesn't even need to come into it, as far as I can tell.
At least with live suggestions, people explicitly see that their keypresses are acted on, whether or not all of them understand that this means it is transmitted somewhere.

With a form with a submit button and no feedback indicating what's going on, it's a lot more insidious.

I'd assume so. The CAN-SPAM[0] act mandates that the unsubscribe link must not contain any authorization, e.g., you click the link and you're immediately unsubscribed. This is just trading a click in one location for a click in another, but it's a neat feature to not search through the entire email to try to find the unsubscribe link.

Quantum Teleportation World Record Set
I think this is a very trenchant criticism of what I said, and I appreciate you not taking offense at me!

For a) I imagine data sharing is fine, except that you can't share behavioral data about users, and you can't use any of the shared data for advertising. That said, I know very little about how publisher networks work and would appreciate pushback.

b) is unfortunately quite right. If you're sufficiently pessimistic, one thing that makes having giant tracking agencies better is that they're more likely to not get hacked or leak your data. But I agree that this is a real problem and one that my proposals from this talk will exacerbate.
Of course, source aside, if you want a $300 laptop then you'll get the low build-quality, plastic-fantastic piece of spyware-riddled crap you pay for. If you're paying a premium, for a product range where reputation and quality actually matters, you stand a better chance. Unfortunately in the current laptop market, imho, that means paying a minimum of $1000, with low-end Apple prices being preferable.

Dells business range isn't so bad. I bought a Latitude in January of last year and, although it had some superfluous fluff bundled with it, it was lean enough that I didn't bother to format and reinstall from scratch (although I dual boot). I previously bought a Lenovo ThinkPad for more and returned it because the depressing build quality (I don't remember much about the bundled software because it simple doesn't factor in to my purchasing decisions).

I think the fact that this spyware was found on a refurbed ThinkPad shows just how far the brand has fallen.
Would using a macro system such as http://metalua.luaforge.net/metalua-manual.html be another way of doing this ?

This blog post reminded me of Lua's rather non-conformist older cousin Tcl. Shaping your own control structure is an idiomatic thing to do in Tcl thanks (or perhaps, but no thanks) to uplevel and upvar. I wish there was a standard goto (no pun intended) place exclusively reserved for creative hacks using those two. There probably is such a page on Tclers wiki, if not it very well deserves to be there.
If you hitch a ride to a run-away wagon heading toward a cliff and don't listen to the screaming passengers jumping off when they decide enough is enough, no one else is to blame if you're still hanging on to the trailing rope as it sails over the edge. Stop blaming the passengers for not putting up with the bumps. Your ride is over.

UX will win.
"Big Ads" is very apt. Advertising agencies are very much like start-ups: often their goal is to get acquired by one of the major agencies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_advertising_agencies

Those top 5 agencies are the ones who can afford to do privacy-invading advertising, because they can do it at scale.
As I understand it, it's legal to use it in other vehicles but only if those vehicles are used off of the public roadways. For example, if you have a large site and must move material internally to that site, you can use untaxed diesel while the vehicles are moving material on site.
This will probably help Google to decide whether some email someone marked as spam is actual spam or just something the user didn't like to receive.
> I don't see anywhere in the regs where banning alt. firmware is a goal of the regs.

It's not an explicit goal. But the article argues (and I tend to agree) that the practical result will be manufacturers locking down their devices to prevent alt firmware from being loaded, since that will be the easiest and cheapest way for them to demonstrate compliance.

> I am hopeful that this will change the way that WiFi manufacturers lock down their radio firmware - and that is exactly what the FCC wants.

Are you saying the manufacturers will come up with some way of locking down their radio firmware that still permits something like OpenWRT to be installed on a router (or Linux on a laptop, for that matter)? Why would they bother when they could just lock the device down completely?

It depends on how much they donated to the political process. If you donate enough to the system you can have a directly killing feature on a vehicle only cost you $900 million to go away, but it will cost you $157 million in political contributions. Another company has a feature that possibly could kill users who misapply brakes get fined $1.2 billion, but it will cost you $62 million. Volkswagen's $17 million contribution leads to a $18 billion fine for an item that may have an impact on deaths.

Based on this, you can develop Agustus' Contribution to Fine Equation:

Fine = 2E+20*(Political Contribution)^(-1.398)

Thanks - I will but not just yet (a few reasons for that actually).
I work with React daily and love it but will freely admit that using it for simple data-binding for input heavy forms is a gigantic ass-pain.

If you're using Flux, you end up with an immense amount of boilerplate action and store code around every input field. The other option is to violate the model, make all your inputs uncontrolled and have boilerplate onChange listeners for each one.

Choose the right tool for the job. Angular's no-questions-asked data-binding is perfect for this scenario.
The best advice I was given when my daughter was born was to not only put away hobbies, but to remove them from view. Suggestions I was given where things like: packing up the game console and games and put them in the closet, donated the pile of books that I was never going to read, and clear desks/shelves, etc that contained unfinished projects.

The first few months there wasn't time for any of that anyway and then as I began to have time I took out the few items that I really wanted to use, but all the while I didn't have a constant pile of fun things around the house making me feel bad because I didn't have time to play with them.

Depending on the circumstances you will have different amounts of time, but most importantly is realizing that you will have less time and taking steps to adjust to your new role.
The array notation can be automatically added to your build tool (gulp, grunt) using ngAnnotate: https://github.com/olov/ng-annotate. This reduces the amount of duplication and Angular boilerplate around dependency injection. Most Angular projects I've worked on use this, making the Angular guides relevant.
I can't believe anyone takes vox.com seriously.
CAN-SPAM does not actually require one-click unsubscribe, but many senders include it anyway.

From the primary source: "Give a return email address or another easy Internet-based way to allow people to communicate their choice [to opt-out] to you. You may create a menu to allow a recipient to opt out of certain types of messages, but you must include the option to stop all commercial messages from you. "

If this is true (and I think you're right), then pronouncements about "the most important feature" are probably not timely.
Agreed. Last gig (5 years) came from a reference from an old co-worker, whom I had contacted at Christmas with a cheerful family-update email. When he was asked to be Architect on a new product, he declined and redirected them to me.

Another gig came when I got a joke-mail mass mailing from another old co-worker. I saw the source domain was a local company I knew, and replied "Don't see you around here; where do you really work?" Turns out they had a branch office in his city. But anyway, he said "Jerry was asking about you; here's his number, call him". Called him instantly; there was lots of yelling and cheering going on. He says "We just got funding; having a party! Want to work here?" I pause a millisecond and replied "Yes. When do I start?"

I guess its called 'networking' but I've never deliberately done it; it just happens.
Saying no to everything else
Yes agreed - a pernicious example is the "if we do/ don't do X the terrorists will win".

I also agree just because I cannot imagine it that there is not a better model out there.

It is not trivial though if we explode the current DoubleClick / Amazon paradigm of advertising/ recommending by tracking. Walled gardens - subscription or ad driven - are not the answer either.

"we don't want to risk imploding capitalismo do we?"

No I really don't. The stock market crashes and poor people disproportionately suffer. If the EFF were running this adpocalypse maybe but it won't be. It will be whoever can keep the lights on.

But in this narrow case here is what I worry about. The Doubleclick model emerged in a very similar climate of a scourge killing the internet. In that case SPAM in the late 90's.

Targeted ads were among other things the spam killer. So the spammeisters went to work in adtech (I've worked for a few)...plus c'est la même chose .
