> "If Finch were a civil-rights hero, he would be brimming with rage at the unjust verdict. But he isn’t. He’s not Thurgood Marshall looking for racial salvation through the law. He’s Jim Folsom, looking for racial salvation through hearts and minds."

One of these approaches persuaded people to come around to correct views. The other approach produced intellectual trench warfare and our current political gridlock. And Gladwell likes the second, not the first.

Does he have any idea what happens when you use force of arms to compel people to assent on the surface to beliefs they don't hold? The example of the Soviet Union should warn him that this is a bad idea. In particular, look at the Baltic states, which didn't really have a sense of national identity or distinction from Russia before Soviet rule, but are now fanatically nationalist and anti-Russian.

More to the point -- because they're culturally much more similar to the American South -- he should look at Ireland, Wales, and Scotland. Ireland shook off the Saxon yoke after its "Eight Hundred Years of Oppression", which did nothing to make the Irish into Englishmen; Scotland is close to recovering its freedom, reversing the verdict of the 1707 Acts of Union; Welsh nationalism is growing, and we'll probably see Welsh independence in our lifetimes -- even though Wales has been ruled by England since 1277.

The longer the American South is coerced instead of persuaded -- even if they're coerced to do the right thing -- the more they'll react like the other Celts over the water. (Especially the Lowland Scots, who are the people that most contemporary Southerners descend from. Donald Trump, for example, is a textbook Lowlander -- although admittedly he's not Southern.) I wonder what payoff the futures markets offer for Confederate secession in 200 years?
I was watching an episode of That 70s Show a few weeks ago, and I swear I saw Comic Sans on a sign. Not even dramatizations of the past are escapable from it.
Correct; more specifically, leaving the KDF retry enforcement behavior writable on locked devices, and in the case of secure enclave, possibly exposing fingerprint-protected keys themselves to Apple-signed updated firmware.
> I want to play devil's advocate here, just a bit. Looking at it solely from a stock price perspective, she's done remarkably well: the share price roughly doubled during her tenure there. Obviously there are a lot of other metrics to look at, but if you're a struggling company as Yahoo was, that's probably enough to consider hiring her.

She has done terribly. The stock price has little to do with her and almost everything to do with Alibaba. If you remove Alibaba she is now in control of a company worse less than its cash.
Their claims are worthless. In order to be secure against USG, Apple needed to eliminate the privilege of their own signing key, at least when the phone is locked. A vulnerability to Apple is a vulnerability to every country where Apple has a physical presence.

It's hard, but you actually have to throw the ring into Mount Doom. You can't just put in your pocket and promise to never use it.
This is why we at Lytmus believe the most effective way to assess a candidate is to see how they perform on a real work sample. We've built up a virtual machine based platform that allows candidates to showcase their skills in a real development environment with working code cases (web, mobile, data, systems, etc.). Most interviewing methods like algorithmic challenges often only provide signal into a discrete skill that can be acquired through practice, whereas what matters is whether or not you can actually work on real world projects, understand an existing code base and perform on the job as opposed to on an interview coding challenge. Google's SVP of People Ops Laszlo Bock also writes about the ineffectiveness of indirect tests and their weak correlation with on the job performance.
The key issue here is that this is a 5c, which doesn't have the secure enclave. If Apple complies, then this means that there is now a precedent of any IOS device without the enclave to be potentially "cracked" by the authorities with Apple's help.

What I don't quite understand is - how does this affect newer devices, will Apple be legally obligated to build a backdoor to circumvent the enclave from here on (if Apple complies, that is)?

(But even the idea of older generation devices being "fair game" for the government (any government - if it was done for US, it's now possible in any country Apple operates in) is creepy).

Also - what can possibly be on that phone that isn't available elsewhere? Phone records exist at phone companies, social network stuff can be obtained from the facebooks and googles, if they were using watsap - well that's not something Apple could decrypt anyhow...

I'm leaning towards the opinion that Tim Cook was right to make such a big deal out of it, even if it's a 5c.
Honestly I've been leaning towards:

Protip: The note 4 has a wonderful camera and quite often goes on bargain basement sales. If you're OK with used, you can pick them up for a song on Swappa. Personally I wanted a note 4 since it came out, and I waited until after the Note 5 was out to buy it. I love it just as much as if I'd bought it when it was fresh (plus the new phones don't have removable batteries or microSD, and who wants that?)
An iPhone backup file managed by iTunes is encrypted with a separate key, which can be stored in the OS X keychain. A paranoid user might opt not to do so. The OS X keychain could be accessed by compromising the security of OS X, depending on how much encryption the user opted for. It's entirely possible for a paranoid OS X user to make things difficult in a case like this, even for the FBI.

On the other hand, if the FBI had some lead time, all of the above could be circumvented without Apple's cooperation.

> How would IPFS cover all of these cases? Seriously, I'd like to see an answer to this...

This is illogical, as evidenced by the illogical replies you are getting below. You are asking in a "serious" way for the IPFS community, developers or Juan to explain how all current use cases would work on IPFS.

That's a pretty tall order for an Open Source project that (seriously) owes you nothing.

I would suggest you attempt to run an IPFS node yourself and write a few applications and tell us how it goes.

I believe if you have apple's key you can use this to deploy "updates" to locked phones. If a locked phone is powered on and capable of reaching a network, it will automatically grab the signed updates and run whatever code contained therein.

there are a lot of small near-practical applications, but it all really revolves around trying to be cognizant that our initial impressions/estimates vary wildly and are biased.

The book spends the entire time giving you countless examples to hammer the point home.

My favorite example from the book (via wikipedia)

Linda is 31 years old, single, outspoken, and very bright. She majored in philosophy. As a student, she was deeply concerned with issues of discrimination and social justice, and also participated in anti-nuclear demonstrations.

Which is more probable?

a) Linda is a bank teller.

b) Linda is a bank teller and is active in the feminist movement.

Although I'm extremely skeptical of the claims, there are theories that TKAMB was actually written by Capote. Interesting to read the evidence, but definitely on the less probable side of things.
Now, if one were really cynical, and by cynical I mean "possess the power of accurate observation", one might conclude that attempts by justice departments around the world to use tragedies to push political policies and legal decisions, as well as the publicity surrounding such, is also a marketing strategy...
Fair point. We could probably term that the "unnoticed terms" risk and assign a non-zero value to it.

I'd only say two things in defense of credit card use (both valid in the US - not sure about other countries):

- Credit card companies are required to compile all of the information I mentioned into a fairly standardized form per the Truth in Lending Act (see: https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2010/02/22/2010-624... )

- Credit card companies are competing for your business. At least with decent credit scores, it doesn't make sense for them to have unreasonable terms or try to screw you over

Thanks, Before starting something like learning new language or starting new project which is not related to my job I think how it will benefit me and I delay the things and never start it. Can you think same way or can you advice me.
It's impossible to worry without interpretation. The method of interpretation can determine needless worrying about externalities vs handling them in stride.
Based on the comments here, am I to understand that constantly browsing the web with my user agent string set to a googlebot string, I am committing a felony? How would I even know which sites I'm gaining unauthorized access to?

That is completely idiotic if there is a string you can put in a Mozilla browser config that is literally illegal to browse the web with.
If you take out Alibaba, she has delivered net negative value.

You could have taken out the Alibaba share at the start of her tenure and that would be worth more than Yahoo today.
I really like this book as well. It would be my first recommendation to any meditator, new or experienced.
I really don't see how Apple taking a stand on this publicly is of any benefit to them from a marketing perspective. I'm sure there are many of Apple's customers who think they should comply with the FBI on this issue and see their refusal as "supporting terrorists". Apple could have decided to just do what was being asked without making it public and the rest of us would go on knowing nothing about it, but for them to publicly make a statement that they were asked to do this and believe it's wrong, I think, shows a genuine belief on their part that it is an overreach and sets a dangerous precedent for the future. I'm no Apple apologist, but I don't think this has anything to do with marketing for them.

>and it's especially bad when credit is not used for investments

It doesn't even have to be "not investments", it can be appropriately risky investments that just don't pan out (perhaps even systemically due to a "black swan").

There's inherent variation, ebbs and flow, in the economy that we won't ever be able to smooth. Booms and busts will occur because those on the credit margins always represent "going too far".
All food may have protein, but all food does not have essential amino acids (which cannot be made by your body) in the quantities required to maintain health. This is why non-meat eaters must be sure to add certain foods (or certain combination of foods) to their diet if they want to stay healthy. Not bagging on vegetarianism, but the idea you can get sufficient protein by just eating any old plant is.... wrong. And animal protein is a far easier and certain way to get essential amino acids. This from a guy who was a vegetarian for a number of years.
Apple has told reporters off the record that the FBI could make the same demands for Secure Enclave equipped iPhones, probably because the Secure Enclave can be updated.

That's why they're making their stand in this case.

In the future Apple may make it so that the iPhone must be unlocked before an update could be applied, but that isn't the case now.
> We badly need a Semver', which is identical to Semver but starts from 1.0.0 and removes the 0.x.x rule. React is basically retro-fitting Semver' into their project.

I can see the desire for this from a code consumer's perspective, I'll argue that this is mostly impossible. New projects often start because there's a new problem (a software architecture, a set of algorithmic tools, etc.) with an inherent learning curve. The 0.x releases reflect the inherent instability of this real-world learning process. Switching to your proposed Semver' model implies that projects must use the compatibility modes (e.g. deprecate-before-removal as this post describes React adopting) of more mature software before their ideas are even partially baked. Many 0.x-era updates (e.g. x++) are near-complete rewrites of the API or sometimes even the entire nascent codebase. I'll hypothesize that a major contributing factor to successful projects gaining wide adoption is the ability go through that vital period of rapid churn.

So I really want to believe in docker. In general I think the idea of containers are awesome, and they can be awesome in a lot of ways. Have seen them do awesome things for some complex setups.

I honestly do not see what you are getting here though other than just saying "I used docker". Let's compare this to a simple alternative that I used learning DJango:

1) Local - Dev server with virtualenv

2) Prod - Set of ansible scripts applied on top of a default AMI or image from a cloud provider. This adds nginx and gnuicorn and all the stuff you would expect. Runs the same virtualenv stuff used above.

The dev experience seems better in my way, as dev server handles reloads easier.

My prod experience should have some tiny perf boost (as it's just in a VPC container vs a container in a container). Deployments should be faster as it is just a git pull and a gnuicorn bounce. What do I give up?

An example of the prod ansible stack would be https://github.com/jcalazan/ansible-django-stack , but there are others (or you can write your own).
Nice catch.

Tough to say, Alibaba wasn't public when she started so no one knew how much Yahoo's stake was worth. The stock had a nice period before the IPO when people who wanted to buy BABA shares instead bought YHOO because they were available. It didn't hurt that the market was red hot and there were huge expectations for BABA.
I thought Google specifically disallowed returning different pages based on User-Agent targetting googlebot, and this included paywalls.

In a more ideal world, all devices would have something like the Secure Enclave, but with the hardware and software open sourced. There would be a public process for vetting and verifying the design, as well as for verifying embodied instances. Ideally, it would be implemented in such a way that the security could be mathematically provable. This would let the public have the benefits of trusted execution, which they could then use to protect their information in the hands of corporations and governments.

This is the exact same asymmetry embodied in openness/privacy/surveillance. When governments and corporations have unfettered access to people's private information, this is very bad for human rights and an open democratic society. On the other hand, when individuals have open access to information from government organizations and corporations, this is generally good for human rights and an open democratic society.

Organizations using trusted execution technologies against individuals has been a disaster for individual rights. However, empowering individuals to use such technologies to protect them against corporations would have tremendous benefits for individuals.

Calico looks good. As far as we understand calico works the same way as flannel/host-gw does, i.e. creates a route for all subnets in the cluster. Of course, calico is more advanced technology than flannel/host-gw, but the reason why we haven't tested it is following: they're different in control path but the same in data path. Our original intention was to test underlying linux-kernel mechanisms and understood how much we lose in terms of latency and throughput.

For small configurations flannel/host-gw is OK, I guess, but if one have several kubernetes clusters, flannel/host-gw becomes harder to maintain. That's a place where calico should be useful.
