In reality Internet of Things (IoT) market is not happening
That's a very good analogy. Just don't underestimate how quickly the tech can progress in this day and age, I did that mistake myself. Less than two years ago I was very excited about the Rift and bought a dev kit. As someone who works in computer vision etc, I was convinced though that good tracking would be many years out, and then suddenly there were the lighthouse solution from Valve. Now I've had the same thought about inside-out tracking (by means of vision), but even that seems to be arriving much faster than I initially anticipated. Today every big tech company from MS, Google, Facebook, to Valve, and hardware companies such as Samsung, HTC and Nvidia/ATI manufacturers are pushing hard on every frontier of VR. I agree the form factor has to change to allow mass adoption, but expect much faster progress than what happened with phones in the 80s.
My point about the 30% is that Apple is only liable for inflating prices at most 30%. Prices can't be three times higher than the market would have set because Apple doesn't set the final price.

Here's a question, if Apple ran the App Store for free (0% commission) would there be any case to answer? How about 1%? Why is 30% so unreasonable? Seems to be the fair market rate for store services, I'd argue.

Microsoft has a monopoly on distribution channels for Xbox games. (Including packaged game discs which just like their online store require their blessing and a license fee. The only difference in practice is method of data delivery and additional middlemen taking a further cut of sales.) Should Microsoft be required to open the Xbox to games not blessed by Microsoft?
TBH, I prefer not to give them an incentive to the photos of people's faces at the same time as the license plates.

Requiring people to answer questions truthfully is not unreasonable, I never quite understood the basis for the 5th amendment. Was it because of some British colonial atrocity?

That exoscale screenshot is very similar to what I see with NoScript on a 100 Mb/s connection before I temporarily allow their JS.

What's nice about NoScript is that I can turn on their JS but keep turned off the JS scripts from the other sites. Apparently they only use googletagmanager. Ublock doesn't report any blocked script so it's a rare well behaved site.
Your advice has some very useful aspects to it. However, It's good to be practical. If removing distractions entirely is noticeably helpful, then why not do it on occasion?

One can also work on increasing self-awareness at the same time. They are not mutually exclusive. I would guess that a combination of both approaches would be beneficial for most people. I've personally found benefits from both approaches.

As a self professed good software engineer, you know that debugging requires explicit and implicit assumptions to be reevaluated. Here are some you've made that may be introducing bugs into your thought process:

- when someone evaluates another person's skill, the person doing the evaluation is completely objective

- highly skilled individuals would enter a monoculture environment of people dissimilar to themselves

- no prejudice exists in software because you haven't personally ever experienced any

- women are uninterested in software engineering because they're biologically wired to dislike computing, rather than because every computing class and workplace is heavily male dominated

Some time ago, major European symphonic orchestras recognized that their hiring process was bugged, and began to hold blind auditions. The hiring rate for women jumped substantially everywhere this was done.

Orchestra musician is a technically and physically demanding job. Your arguments could have been applied there just the same, for the same result as we see in computing today, but they were wrong there. This suggests we ought to do the experiment to find out if something is wrong here, and that's what lever appears to be doing.

I'm going through this thread comment by comment and it feels like reading customer reviews on Amazon. Many comments are written like those '5-star' reviews there. It's just a vague feeling and maybe I'm wrong.

VR might be a hit but there're questions marks which got outlined by other commentators quite well.

I'm not qualified to judge if VR is going to be a hit but I realize that a lot of people seem to be committed and invested in this space (so money is involved) and we should be just wary when we see 5-star reviews.
So, the beggar is out on the streets with a card reader that sends money to an account run by a shelter, which allows them to purchase services from this shelter?

AMD Ryzen Hype
If you agree with chillingeffect that one's home "is an illiquid investment that appreciates at a rate that varies in conjunction with inflation", then you think it's an investment, albeit one with some drawbacks.

Yes, it's illiquid, absolutely. (Although not much more so than any other home one buys, say an apartment block; I can move on less notice than I can sell a property.) Yes, there are some concerns about the ROR, relative to inflation (although I note that world population, and population in most markets one cares about, is increasing, and they're not making more land, so one should expect real estate to appreciate somewhat, relative to inflation, although perhaps not enough to be interesting).

But why on earth would you say that it's "not an investment"? Why does illiquidity and poor RoR disqualify something from being an investment?

Do you also claim that buying negative-rate bonds is not an investment? What about buying gold against inflation (for those who see gold as an inflation hedge)?

What is the definition of "investment" that you're using? It must be a pretty compelling one, for you to use the phrase "not an investment" so confidently in so many comments. Me, I thought that the nature of investing was allocating capital, the opposite of divesting (selling).
This could be renamed "problems with people".

A while ago I heard something which really effected me -- "True feminism is accepting that men and women are largely the same. Neither better or worse. That means women in positions of power will act, on average, the same way men have for thousands of years -- often selfishly. True equality is accepting there are both good and bad people in every gender and social group."

>All of these could probably have been fixed with minimal support from broadcom (and a bit more open thinking from them during the design).

Support from Broadcom is unlikely to fix it, the BCM283x family of SoCs are just a huge mess and in my opinion are either suited for really specific applications (TV boxes) or as "toys".

The ARM core itself is integrated very poorly almost as an afterthought, since it wasn't in the original design, the BCM283x family is just BCM27xx family VideoCore4 VPU+QPU combinations with an ARM core hacked (and I really do mean hacked) on top.
Still not true analogy as Apple don't prevent competitions inside the mall.

Anyway finding a physical world analogy will be though so maybe we should resign trying. (Fact that duplicatinga/delivering cost for digital product is close to zero is an example of why physical analogy will often fail)

I think goven the origin story of the Pi, "political" implies something that wasn't there. The Pi was want expected to be the huge success it has been.

They weren't sure they'd sell 1000 initially, and 10,000 was crazy dream. It wasn't conceived as the next wave of hacker and maker computers. Its goal was to be a cheap and accessible way to teach kids programming.

Eben Upton was an SoC architect at Broadcom and was working there full time, and when the Pi was designed they thought they'd shift 1000 units of the end product. Why on Earth would they use anything other than the Broadcom?

It was a practical and logistical choice.

So why did you even come here and purposefully spread misinformation you knew wasn't true? What was your point? What was your goal?

What you did was a systematic, pathological attempt to deceive, spread false conspiracy theories, discredit professional scientists, and deny global warming. Trying that hard so many times to articulate something you know is 100% incorrect is called "lying".

You started out by defending Scott Adams and falsely accusing scientists of lying, but it turned out you were the one actually lying, you weren't accidentally mistaken, and you knew it all along.

Don't pretend to be shocked that I'm unfairly calling you a liar, since I'll quote your own words back to you:

"I believe many if not most scientists are at least partially lying to people, and by lying I don't mean they are accidentally mistaken, I mean that they know that some of what they are saying is speculative, but they pass it off as established fact." -misterman

Go back over this thread and look at how many times and how vigorously you lied, did precisely what you'r falsely accusing other people of doing, and then feigned shock and mortal outrage that you were actually called on it, in a thread about "calling bullshit".

What was the point to all your lies and false accusations, and are you going to continue to act this way in the future?
Great with the XMPP protocol. Waiting for the next post.
Obama's administration was "setting an example" a bit too much, don't you think?! They got blood of many people on their hands. ( Like Aaron Swartz':( )
We're mostly talking about government agencies here that would force Facebook to act in that way. And even though they could force them to try to intercept messages of a user with an ESL, they can't force them to introduce a vulnerability for all users.

Especially as ESL are usually kept secret within the company, this would be too risky, developers would ultimately find such a backdoor (especially since it generates a lot of server traffic).
The problem is that most security technologies only provide protection against specific attack vectors and attackers under specific conditions.

Without understanding these technologies very deeply, they are all creating a false sense of security to some degree.

That doesn't make your statement false, just very difficult to apply. That's not to say it can never be applied. There are clearly cases in which people are deliberately mislead.
No worries, my critique is not aimed at you but at the way D-Wave is doing PR, as I think it does serious damage to all other companies in this field and will hinder progress in quantum computing. I understand that you need to do some marketing as a tech company, but there is a difference between being optimistic and visionary about what you want to do, and simply telling people that you already did it without handing over any proof. After what happened with Theranos I really wish tech journalists would be more careful when reporting about supposedly revolutionary technologies like these, especially if there is no independent evidence available to back any of the claims made.

From what I've seen most people get started with opiates using them as an instant gratification anti-depressant. For that purpose they are effective for a while until the consequences of addiction start to set in. The worst part of this is in that period before addiction they actually are happier, more outgoing, more fun to be around, etc. So there's a sort of social dependency that goes along with the chemical dependency.
I don't get the complains here. Whatsapp is used by over a billion people and offers end2end encryption for them. A system that mainly targets people with little tech experience can never be kept 100% secure. If they make it harder to switch phones, people would stop using whatsapp.

The only vulnerability seems to be that they could prevent delivery messages. I'm sure that most people would notice if they suddenly son't see the 2 ticks, even if the other person answered. And if you want your conversation to be secret, that's a major red flag, now that this is known.

And if I get a phone change notification even though the other person didn't change their phones I'd also be confused at least. When I last changed my phone, a lot of people noticed because of the notification and asked me. And those were not tech savvy people, they were just wondering why I got a new phone.

Spying on conversations (especially by govt agencies) is only effective if the target doesn't know about it. It seems that Whatsapp has no way of enforcing that without the user noticing.
This is a very important distinction.
Study suggests computational role for inhibitory neurons
Apple has an higher revenue than the GDP of most countries, including some Western European ones, and an healthy profit margin. I think they can afford to fight two parallel lawsuits.
Some places people seem to turn to opiates. Some places it's speed. Some places it's alcohol.

Quite what results in a given area having a given addiction of choice I'm not sure, but it can definitely vary over time - some parts of britain had a generational thing where the older addicts were all alcoholics and the younger ones were all on heroin, but my father (who worked in probation) said that among his clients other than the choice of substance affecting what sort of physical damage they suffered the rest of the issues were basically identical.
The sad thruth is that Obama is more likely to issue a pardon for Hillary Clinton than for Edward Snowden.
I wonder how that works in the UK - the 5th amendment is just another version of the same law in England, triggered by the abuses at the same English court, Star Chamber.

According to Lord Mustill: "A general immunity, possessed by all persons and bodies, from being compelled on pain of punishment to answer questions posed by other persons or bodies."

Which seems eminently applicable. Has the camera law been challenged in this way in British courts?

> you don't see difference between disagreement and hostility

Yeah I do though. Consider that maybe you don't see why your post was extremely hostile.

I have very little patience for comments that refuse to do any charitable interpretation and instead end up being "but your post is wrong if taken literally!".

I have even less patience when such a poorly chosen tactic is applied incorrectly.

I've given you the benefit of the doubt and did reply to you (you've again disregarded it). I'll repeat it for clarity: a flaw in x does not necessarily equal an argument against x, and vice versa. Furthermore, "Everything - most = small" is a mathematically nonsensical statement.

Ad for my "6 years" comment, that was not an ad hominem, it was an observation. If you were a fresh account, I would have dismissed your comment as a troll. If you were a fairly new account, I would have thought that maybe you're not used to discussing things on an online social platform. But you have been here, communicating with others for six years; so when you write with such a confrontational tone, you get a confrontational tone back.

Who must it necessarily come from bad negotiators?

The market rate for senior software engineers could easily be $250-300k if everyone negotiated aggressively. The ceiling on developer pay is the value they produce, and developers at many/most companies produce well above $300k in value a year. The hiring pool for senior talent is supply-constrained, not demand-constrained. If all developers were paid $250k/yr, I would expect top companies to hire just as aggressively.

Negotiating aggressively could simply be bringing you closer to the perfect-equilibrium market price without implying that you're bringing down the salaries of non-negotiators.

If anything, it's the non-negotiators bringing down salaries for everyone. Their not negotiating allows (some) companies to think the market rate is lower and to avoid paying for the higher negotiated rates.
Should Microsoft be required to open the Xbox to games not blessed by Microsoft?

I don't think mobile games and Xbox games are the same market save for both competing for disposable income. Neither is a fit stand in for the other.
Is it actually possible to have a constitution-compliant automatic system for registering traffic violations in US?
Why not make it a sticker or just something to hold...

I'd also like to know from someone who has been in that situation, maybe even an addict, what he thinks of the limitation on what he can spend the money on. I guess it's good because people will spend more and it can't fuel an addiction, but it also strips you from some more freedom.

I also wonder if registration is somewhat anonymous with no questions asked for illegals, minors etc.
I don't think so. Presumably if they show that page when they are overloaded, the page must be extremely quick to load.

Notice how all of the assets (images, css) are all inlined in the HTML so your browser doesn't make multiple requests.
Non-staff workers are generally line workers, but given the image in which someone is being notified of their bartending shift, I'm guessing Microsoft is using 'staff worker' to mean 'not a manager.'

It looks like they're aiming this at small-business managers.
Does the USA justice system use inquisitorial prosecution? From what I've heard about that kind of court in Germany, the USA is very far from that kind of non-adversarial proceeding.

I'm actually surprised by the french translation too. THINK sounds like an injunction, PENSONS sounds a bit mild and passive in comparison. I think you can say to somebody in english "Come on, think!" when you want them to understand or realize something but I'd never say "Allez, pense!" in french for this.

"Penser" in french has often (but not always) more to do with remembering things than actually gaining a deeper understanding. "Pense à acheter du lait" would be "Don't forget to buy some milk".

I think "RÉFLÉCHISSONS" might be a bit closer to what the english THINK evokes for me. But then again I'm not a native english speaker so maybe I read a little too much into this.
