I think the problem with this, like with most routes that involve a lawyer, is that this isn't about being enforceable or not, but whether you can actually pay in time and money to try to enforce it.

That's why typically only companies try to enforce licenses.

> It is also theoretically possible that hackers could steal the software from the company’s servers.

It's also theoretically possible for hackers to steal Apple's private key from their servers, in the exact same way. As far as I see, there's no change to the threat model by Apple making a new software version, and signing it using the same process they use to sign other versions of iOS. It's useless if not signed, so the real worry is someone having the ability to sign it, and that applies exactly the same if Apple signs iOS or FBiOS.

This suggests the authors don't understand the technology well enough to know this.

edit: this is assuming the software is locked to a specific device. So the signing doesn't matter to any other device. If the software worked on all devices, then a leak of a signed version would be problematic. Although even if they couldn't lock it to device, they could make it only work for a short time, say a week, so if that signed version leaks later it would have no effects (I'm not sure if you can change the clock on a phone without unlocking it though).

In general, you can't assume people won't deep-link your content, and that includes embedding.

Technically, no, you can't with current protocols. However, this has been regarded as bad manners ("hot linking", "bandwidth theft", etc.) since forever.

Taking steps to protect against or take advantage of traffic spikes is the responsibility of a content provider.

The trouble is, with the increasing concentration of attention on the web in the hands of a few high profile traffic aggregators and social networking sites, this kind of argument holds less credibility than it used to. It's all very well saying if you put something on-line then you're responsible for supporting it, but the reality is that someone else suddenly diverting large amounts of traffic to your site is statistically indistinguishable from a denial of service attack.

If it's qualified traffic and being directed to somewhere you welcome the extra visitors, you might appreciate it. If it's unqualified traffic and overloading your servers at your and/or your normal visitors' expense, you probably won't appreciate it. If it's not even being directed to your normal site but instead deliberately freeloading on your servers and bandwidth via hot-linking, I think you're at least well into a grey area in terms of both ethics and legality.

We are talking about relative security here. Do you really think that keeping stuff on your phone is more secure than keeping it elsewhere?

Let me remind you, than if I'm not mistaken in US law enforcement can search your phone without any sort of warrant. Let's assume that you keep your stuff just on your own PC at home, then that at least would require a warrant.
Well that is 100% my point. Your NixOS (Which I really LOVE the idea of their package manager) Still isn't as fragmented. You get your Linux packages differently but the software is still there. Also it uses systemd by default.

American Express has a card "Blue Cash Preferred". You get 6% back on Groceries (up to $6k/yr), 3% back on gas, and the card has a $75 annual fee.

If you only use the card to spend $100/week on Groceries, you get $312 in cashback rewards. Subtract the $75/yr fee, and Amex paid you $237 to use their card that year.

(Amex isn't the only card like this -- there's lots from MasterCard and Visa as well. This card in particular just happens to be one of the rewards cards that I know the details of.)
My utility from eating (in one time period) $800 worth of food is less than 2 x utility of eating $400 worth of food. Doubling my consumption doesn't double my happiness.

Concavity is a way of formalizing this intuition; it means, roughly speaking, that f(2x) <= 2f(x).

Econ uses log(x) as a simple model, but the same idea would apply to any convex function albeit with different arithmetic.

Product Hunt's Response to Accusations of Exclusivity Is to Increase Exclusivity
He how goes out owing the most wins. He's lived like a king and didn't pay for anything.

But seriously, every article I read on personal debt talks about how to get out of it after the fact. I think we need to do a better job of educating people on this subject BEFORE they get into debt.
"If you already own a home/car, and have no intention of getting a loan in the next 10 years, what is wrong with this strategy?"

It's dishonest and is the work of a scoundrel.
I'd disagree on that last part - I'd say that if you're not making a crazy salary his advice is even more valuable. Most people spend an obscene amount of money on things they don't actually really need. Some classic examples:

A $3 coffee everyday adds up to about $90 a month, when you can usually just drink free coffee from your office or buy some cheap pre-ground stuff.

Spending $5-6 for lunch each day at work can easily add up to another $100+ dollars a month, when you could just make a bunch of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and spend a fraction of that.

So there's close to $200 a month, right there.

If you're trying to retire early, it's definitely way tougher on a lower salary. But improving your spending habits is an important skill for everyone, especially for those making less.
Now suppose you lose your job in Month 10. The TV-less person will continue not having a TV, and use those funds for emergency day-to-day living expenses as he (or she) gets his life back in order. You can even dip into your credit card credit line for an emergency.

But the person who bought the TV on interest is in debt, has less credit to live off of, and only a TV to show for it.

-----------

In either case, saving up a pile of 6-months of expenses cash-on-hand is a good strategy. If you have 6-months of expenses saved up, you simply buy the TV with that money, and then in a year you put money back into your cash account.

Look, now you have the benefits of all strategies! Saving up money for emergencies, or even large expenses (LONG before you even think about those expenses) is the way to go.

> The page you linked to shows that even the events of 2008-2009 didn't set people back from expanding their personal debt, which is surprising to me.

The page I linked, under the heading "Transactors versus revolvers," presents a chart that shows the percentage of households with revolving debt declining from 44% in 2009 to 34% in 2014. A 22% decrease over five years is rather significant, no?

How is this not a World Trade Organization treaty violation? Serious question.
I suspect that the average person - actually, make it 99.5% of the people - is better off with advice along the lines of "if you can possibly help it, don't get into debt to buy anything that can't be used to make enough money to offset the interest, and be very careful even " then "get into debt as long as the utility offsets the interest."

I think so because I doubt that most people (regardless of how good they are at math) can trust their current selves to compare utility from consumption to disutility from having to pay back (meaning that their future self will often disagree strongly with their current self.) This is not to say that someone else should be trusted with decisions about savings and loans other than the saver/borrower (forcing someone to put money into a pension fund on the grounds that they're irrational and then not really paying the pension back is a bit too common for my taste), just that "by default, don't get into debt" is good advice.

More generally, IMO quite often clever utilitarian maximization works worse than simple rules designed to keep you out of trouble first, and seek "utility" later. (I guess I don't quite believe in people being utility-seeking machines, not to mention ones having stable preferences, nor do I believe that a person is truly better off having achieved more utility per unit of time.)

I realize it's not a satisfactory argument, of course, if one does believe in utility maximization as a good way to think about these things, and I really wish I could back this up so it's more than a hunch...

From my understanding in the previous cases the passcode only limited access to using the phone, not to the data inside. This is the same situation as having a password protected PC but not having your disks encrypted. You need to know the password to be able to use the computer, but anyone that has physical access to your machine can just take the disks and read your data using another computer.

From reading the article this is how Apple has helped law enforcement previously.

Now in more up to date versions of iOS the passcode limits access to using the phone, in addition to limiting access to the data contained inside. This limits what Apple can do to help law enforcement in the previous scenario, since any data they could copy off the phone would still be encrypted.
> Carrying a balance on a credit card is almost never an appropriate use of debt.

One exception: Credit cards with those introductory "6 months interest free" clauses. Sign up for as many as you can get, with as large a limit as you can get. Max them all out on payments into a mortgage offset account. Just before the end of the interest free period, pay them all off again. (I've heard of this being done but I'd bet it's a lot harder to pull off these days.)
Ah yes; it's almost as if we live in some sort of serfdom where all the laws are set up to benefit only those who already have wealth, influence and power.
How White Hat Hackers Stole Crypto Keys from an Offline Laptop in Another Room
no, but the 4th amendment (which I referenced above) is the usual proxy. Even the most ardent of abortion backers will admit that Roe v Wade is flawed by every measure of judicial practice (which is why the entire line of thought advanced by Roe v Wade has not gotten any traction in any other ruling). Only the fact that it's tied to such a hot-button issue has kept courts from over-turning it.

The 4th amendments and all writs law is being broadly interpreted by this judge to give the government the power to effectively enforce a warrant against the entire population of the United States that uses iPhones. Scalia would have been all over that like white on rice.

> Suppose you have enough disposable income to pay for a new $1200 TV over the course of 12 months. In scenario 1, you save $100 each month. The bank pays you 0.5% interest. As of January 1st next year you'll have a new TV and $2.75. In scenario 2, you put $1200 on a credit card with a 10% APR. You pay $100 each month towards the credit card bill. As of January 1st next year you have a TV you've been watching for a year already and owe $69. You've essentially paid $72 for the privilege of getting the TV you wanted a year earlier.

I think this is a good point, but the sort of people who would need a year to save $1200 do not have the sort of credit to get a 10% APR credit card, APR's closer to 20% or higher are more likely. Run the math again at 18% APR ($133 in interest over the 14-month payoff period) or even 24% ($185 in interest over the 14-month payoff period), and you quickly see just how much premium it costs to get that TV a year earlier.

I'm ignoring the negligible savings rate interest in your example and, probably foolishly, assuming this hypothetical person only has this single CC debt.

A few years ago the Daily Mail ran an article about a visualization I made. They obeyed my CC license, so I have no complaint as serious as Yau's. But the article was just full of errors, including spelling my name wrong in three different ways. I wrote the article author and pointed out all the errors and he responded "No copy editing! It's a tight budget."

The Daily Mail truly doesn't give a shit. About quality, about copyright, about decency. It seems to be working for them.
No I'm not, I've lived in China for 6 years, 1 year near Wuhan and 5 years in Shanghai and came there the first time in 2002.

When I first came there, China was gradually opening itself, things were becoming more free and people were very optimistic. If you talked to Taxi drivers, waiters or basically any people in the street, they were very optimistic and thought that the future was going to be great. Overtime this optimism has changed, when I would talk to taxi drivers, they would be bitter, thinking that the growth only really profited the rich and they had been left behind. It was a very different feelings...

Surprisingly, upper class Chines that I would talk to were also wary about the changes of the government and a lot of them were thinking of finding ways to leave China (I have a friend who went to Canada to give birth to her child for this very reason).
i worked at a wine distributer on the upper east side in manhattan in the late aughties

you could see the changes happening in real time

the industry was moving toward what they called 'priced to drink'

gone were the days of hoarding wine for years to be opened in fanfare, now buyers wanted bottles you could drink the same night you bought it

the best wine i have ever had was when i was working as a bus boy at a fine dining restaurant

one of my tables was a regular who always payed the corking fee and brought in six bottles of his own.. our sommelier loved him

as i was clearing his table he stopped me and offered me a sip of his last bottle on the table

what i tasted was unlike any wine i had ever tried

to say it was 'good' would be untrue, the wine tasted like dirt, or more specifically white granite crushed into a fine dust

i could taste the color of the stone in the earth that the vine was grown

Nope. And in any case that's one area in which "security through obscurity" can be useful. Presumably you have your phone on your person, but the fact that you have a server somewhere has to be determined.

The work I'm describing is all minimally skilled labor.

Automation already provides a much higher level of services than human workers in many areas. Do we really want to wait to the very end of this process to begin the transition?

Right now our problem is too little labor, not too much. Maybe we should wait until we at least have enough labor before we take steps that will reduce the labor supply?

Note that according to the experiments which BI proponents cite as "successes", BI reduces labor supply by 10% or so (e.g. mincome reduced labor by 13%).

https://decorrespondent.nl/541/why-we-should-give-free-money...

http://public.econ.duke.edu/~erw/197/forget-cea%20(2).pdf

For comparison, the great recession reduced labor supplied by 5%.

Under circumstances of labor scarcity, BI would be wildly counterproductive.

Implementing a BI now is like a fat person eating 5 cheeseburgers on the theory that they might starve in some distant apocalyptic future.

That's why a lot of people (myself included) are so cynical about the request. We all know the intelligence community has experience with side channel attacks, decapping processors, etc. But they've apparently decided not to use them in this case, "in the interest of time."

If they really wanted that data, they could get it with their current capabilities. They don't really want that data; they want the legal precedent to compel companies to subvert their own security mechanisms, and they want to intimidate one of their harshest critics (Cook). That's part of their broader strategy; if we can compel you to break security you built, you build security you can't break. The next logical question is whether they can compel you to not build security mechanisms you cannot break in the first place. That's the legal question the FBI really wants to ask.

Advertising.

Most people are afraid?/too proud? to admit or even consider they may not be 100% rational or 100% in control of the own actions despite numerous studies showing you are not

Advertising, very obviously, manipulates people into making choices. Most of which are not in their interest. The original article even has an example; in the three kinds of ads for loan. One ad was twice as effective. In advertising, "effective", "conversion rate", etc all mean better at manipulating people into making the choice the advertiser wanted.
