Actually I think the standardization of HTML5/CSS3/JS as the UI framework is preferable to the extreme fragmentation that exists in the "native" UI space

I think there's opportunity in packaging this as a system installed & independently updated dynamically linked library much like WebView is updated on Android KitKat onwards. Eg. a single "system" Chromium component that's installed centrally & used by multiple programs much like Microsoft Runtime DLLs on Windows.
Awesome post. Thank you very much for remembering us that stuff matters outside of the IT world.
The U.S. Justice Department and Securities and Exchange Commission are the people to speak to regarding violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act[0]. That is the law that bars American companies from bribing foreign-government officials anywhere in the world.

As I recall DOJ declined to file charges against Medtronic in a previous 4-5 year investigation of their practices regarding payments to govt doctors in Europe and Malaysia so there is probably a 10-K Form in the 2012-2103 timeframe.

DOJ/SEC have been actively pursuing health services and health technology companies so there is an open ear to complaints.

atime is heavily used by traditional mail clients like mutt, to determine which mailboxes have new mail: If atime < mtime, then there has been a write to a file since the last read.

Because updating atime on every file access carries an IO overhead, there's a mount option "relatime" that only updates atime if atime < mtime. This preserves the "new mail" feature of mutt, but doesn't require atime writes for every file read operation, which is a decent compromise.
Try it. You _might_ be surprised :)
Just to clarify, the medical system in the US is far from a free market... the pharmaceutical industry itself is the opposite of a free market, inundated with incumbents and very strong patent protections without anything to force open generic production and licensing at a reasonable cost.

Beyond the pharmaceuticals, is that the most expensive healthcare services are provided by hospitals that are mostly locked in by proximity.

I doubt the plausibility of that timeline - the original iPhone was announced in January 2007, KDE 4.0Alpha1 was released in May 2007[1].

KDE 4.0 was a terrible release (missing functionality, lots of regressions). IMO, they should have kept it as a develop branch and only released 4.1 as 4.0.

As a non-American always buying non-rebranded and unlocked phones, this was my first thought as well.

No, the US healthcare is in serious trouble. My point was about a line of approach for the problem. In fact, India can give a few good pointers here, which you can see from how little I pay for my own, rather excellent, healthcare.

This. Really. I'm on the stage of what you say. Its not that easy to decide what to build based on the knowledge you have since your working alone. Then when you've decided you'll eventually struggle to making it work. I won't worry that the project will not be recognized at least I've spent happy moments learned a lot of stuffs. Built my own tools in getting ready to move on to build yet another interesting stuff that can't be recognized. Doing this just to learn new things until you gained experience and ready to sell your self with the proofs you've made.

I did this in C#. It was a lunch time project at work a couple of years ago. It was fun. I still want to do a V2 and remove all of the shortcuts I put in because I didn't want to write code for the stack and stuff like that. At the end of the day, my solution was spookily similar to this - the 32bit instructions - well, yeah, I was the same! It was just simpler. I did have a few general purpose registers (V1, V2 and V3 I think) and I did have routines to handle bytes, words and such like. So stuff like this (as a random example I pulled from the source):

ORG START

START: ST_B 10

LOOP:	ST_B 10

ADD_B ;;value will go back on stack

LD_B V1

SM_B V1 ;;value we use next loop

SM_B V1 ;;value we compare

SM_B V1 ;;value we echo to console

TRP 21 ;;writes to the console

ST_S '',13,10,$

TRP 21 ;;writes to the console

CMP_B 50 ;;compares stack to the constant

JNE LOOP

ST_S 'The End',13,10,$

TRP 21 ;;writes to the console

END
I get that this is an article about gamma, but it should have mentioned that sRGB is on the way out. People who need to think about gamma also need to think about wider color spaces like DCI-P3, which the Apple ecosystem is moving to pretty quickly (and others would be dumb to not follow).

Why not?
Off the top of my head:

- strongly typed syscalls.

- easier way to circumvent the kernel / OS (unikernels are very active and tangible space, see HFT) while potentially staying relatively safe

- safe zero copy IPC

- projects like https://zinc.rs/ which fold Embedded Linux' Device Tree concept into a coherent declarative HW description that is consumable by the bootstrapper
>> So if a simulator shows a deviation from this constant sum, there's something wrong with the simulator and/or the underlying mathematics.

> Not necessarily so

But the "constant sum" I refer to is the sum of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy in the system. If that were not true, if the sum were not a constant (and remembering this is an ideal model without friction), then energy would not be conserved. So, yes, necessarily so.
My gut feeling is DOJ might have trouble gathering evidence on this case. Also if Medtronics has any sort of competency they will have structured this deal very carefully to avoid FCPA problems. Sometimes the only way these sort of outrages are fixed is with sunlight and activism.

And then:

Fraud and duty identify ways of operating with other people, in other words "ethics". I'd argue laws codify community agreed ethics or create a common language for debating these agreements.

I think the specific argument would be better framed in terms of the standards or levels of ethics being applied, rather trying to hide a weak application of ethics behind a poorly defined role for the scope of law.

I'm not certain about some of those mortgages: From everything I've learned since I've been in Norway, after the whole financial crisis they took steps to minimize some of the housing stuff.

Housing is expensive where I'm at: It is much cheaper outside of the city. There is debt tied to the house, if you own a house.

The average mortgage is 20-30 years - what you are stating isn't the average. This isn't actually all that much outside of the rates in the US, and part of the reason is to keep housing affordable for people. What is different is that people tend to stay at a job for a much longer time frame.

In addition, housing comes with a required down payment, depending on your age. I think for folks under 23, they have to have 10% down payment: Everyone else should have 20% (or possibly 25%), capped at something like 3.5 times income.

As far as debt goes, you can't really inherit debt here. You can inherit a bit of debt through inheritance - ie, tax on a house that had value. The other way to have that is for parents to co-sign on a loan, but that isn't the same sort of thing. There are some laws to prevent children inheriting debt from what I understand.

I see an API fail coming. It seems plugin.Load takes the filename WITH extension where it shouldn't. Okay, right now it seems it's only supported on Linux but it ends up in Windows, you'd have to patch code to remove the .so. Mono handles it pretty well, the extension is optional.
The question was if it's possible to use someone's else electricity when the sun isn't shining in your place. While it's technically possible and in many cases economically reasonable, you probably won't see countries giving up their electricity production and importing power from overseas - the main reason is politics.
I wish I could upvote this a thousand times, you're the only one here who saw it apparently, and nobody seems to care that the premise of this whole "scandal" is entirely fabricated.

It feels strange to be defending Microsoft and Lenovo like this, but Microsoft most likely had nothing to do with this specific configuration. There is no version of Windows that comes with a driver for this RAID controller, just the same as there is no Linux driver yet.

While I might be tempted to believe that locking to RAID mode is a deliberate choice by Lenovo to take options away from users, the target here is not Linux. The target is Joe User who now can't (re-)install Windows on his machine. That's the freedom they're trying to take away.

Of course it doesn't help that Lenovo's marketing/support departments are utterly incompetent in communicating this, and switch to "guilty mode" by default.

By the way, actually locking out Linux would be an easy feat: just require a Microsoft-signed secure boot loader in UEFI. That's the real horror scenario, not this RAID driver nonsense.
yeah, that was my first reaction: how do I know which one is which?
Actually, implementing your own crypto for real is not so crazy. The best algorithms are surprisingly simple, and easy to make side-channel resistant. The only real difficulty I have so far is with modulo arithmetic on big numbers (for elliptic curves and one time authentication).

With proper test vectors and some code review, crypto is in fact quite easy. More dangers lie un the use of crypto, especially when the API is flexible or complex. And of course good old exploitable bugs.

Yahoo holds a lot of the blame for the death of Flickr, but it would have been in trouble anyway. Flickr was born for a time when a photograph was a rarer thing, and was something you'd put a lot of effort into both creating and curating.

With smartphones, we are all now firehoses of photography, barely clinging on by adding hearts and likes as the images fly past. Carefully adding metadata and curating Flickr-style would be a full-time job for most of us these days.

I guess the closest modern analogue to what Flickr was is Instagram — which is more carefully curated and selective – but Instagram has never cared about quality, and a Flickr that chased the Instagram audience wouldn't really have been Flickr anymore anyway.

What are exactly egyptians in your case? Much of the mediterranean basin including modern Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel/Palestine, Egypt, and the rest of N. Africa was also settled by "Europeans".
Egypt itself went through multiple periods including Persian, Canaanite, and Hellenic periods.
Overall you need to be very specific of the period because there was a lot of influx and movement of people and civilizations.

Even in the past 2000 years there were huge demographic changes in Egypt, the Egyptians today are not an entirely good representation of Egypt even 2000 years ago during the Coptic period.

The changes in skin tone, physique and facial characteristics in Egyptian art are quite interesting to see and they represent the changes in the ethnic and demographic makeup of the civilization.

For example late period mummies and portraits show the outcome of genetic influx from Hellenic and Roman cultures into Egypt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fayum_mummy_portraits, this is even more interesting since Faiyum is quite far from the coast line which shows that demographic changes spanned the geography of egypt.

You and me have different views about privacy. I think you should have control over your data. Google indirectly provides your email information to advertisers. Example: You receive a flight notification. Google reads your email and targets you with ads related to your trip(i.e. hotels, things to do etc based on your age, gender etc) though various channels(i.e. gmail UI, google search, Google Now/AI etc). It wants to do the same with this Allo application. The encryption they claim it's in place it's worthless because it doesn't protect you from this. They try to claim your data is `private` because it's encrypted.

The other case which is uglier is that Google gives your data to foreign governments or other agencies. This may have great consequences.
Cloud computing is based on trust and it's possible because the main players(i.e. US government, cloud providers such Amazon) are trusted not to spy their clients but I don't see many rushing to a chinese cloud vendor to host critical data(i.e. email) on their servers.

The security and privacy features we have are currently based on the good will of the provider (i.e. Google). If we talk about encryption of personal data I think it's worth to ask a bit more than a buzzword. One such thing is to do not share the encryption keys.
