A deterrent how? Scenario: you want to repair your Apple device. You go online to order a new component, conveniently at the same time you get a cheap screwhead to open the device, and everything goes on as expected. If you don't know any better not to open this incredibly fragile device, nowhere along the way have you had a learning experience.

>Repairing devices is not a profit center for Apple.
>To Apple, the ideal device is one that never needs repairs.

These are strong assertions about how Apple operates on the inside. But on the outside, an iPhone screen repair out of warranty can still run in the region of $150, and screen repairs are on the cheap side of services Apple provides. I sincerely doubt that Apple doesn't generate a profit with prices like that.

>Apple does not design their devices to be unrepairable. They just don't design them to be repairable.

These statements are, to me, identical. Repair factors into the design of devices - Apple engineers didn't suddenly forget about it while making an iPhone. If the device isn't meant to be repairable, you're instead intended to replace it, which is wasteful and also a boost to Apple's profits.
All the hype I've seen has been about retail applications that consumers are not going to tolerate after the (minimal) novelty wears off, which is why I think it's being mostly ignored. I think the killer apps will be ones that make people better and faster at things they are strongly motivated to be better and faster at and/or are getting paid to do by someone who can buy the hardware and order them to use it.
EDIT: OK, nevermind, I guess.
Anything that gets projects to move off the CDDL in favor of better licenses (like Apache 2.0) is a good thing.
"National banknotes are generally legal tender, meaning that medium of payment is allowed by law or recognized by a legal system to be valid for meeting a financial obligation."

So yes it requires a central bank as it's through them the recognition happens. Philosophically all money requires is trust no matter what not even a legal entity as long as people trust it, but practically to claim that central banks aren't needed for FRB is wrong to the best of my knowledge.

In our home every single power cord or iPhone charger broke at the same spot (we went through quite a few). Very frustrating and I was quite pissed at Apple for a long time, because of that. Today i know that we have simply been handling the cable too carelessly, pulling it out by the cable, having it continuously bent/twisted in a weird way. I know it sounds silly, but it never occurred to me that that kind of stress would be too much for a part that is used on a daily basis. We have one iPhone charger left and since I am making sure to not ever unplug it by pulling the cable or having it twisted or bent it still looks just as good as in the beginning.

I am sure Apple could produce a more robust cable if they wanted to, but it would probably not lock slick enough.
The things that made the crown vic more repairable are unique to it:

Physically large car, so there is plenty of room to get in and out to work.

Body on Frame instead of unibody construction, so damaged body panels are easy to change out.

Unchanging Design: the final body design was originated in 1992 on the Grand Marquis, and is otherwise unchanged.

I have a Ryzen machine I bought and put into a Jenkins cluster. It does builds on a bunch of VMs occasionally and pegs the CPUs. I have had no issue so far.
Not the first bug reported for Ryzen. Wasn't there a couple of others too, one with linux locking up and another triggered by the ocaml compiler emitting opcodes refering AH/BH/CH/DH registers in a tight loop?

Edit: Sorry, the ocaml bug was Intel Skylake. It's interesting how so many new CPUs have breaking bugs. Feels like it's been quiet since the original pentium F00F bug and then all of a sudden everyone's new CPUs break.
I don't doubt that. Nor do I doubt this new material will prove equally useful to U.S. practitioners.

I can't speak for Australia, but in the U.S. legal scholarship has shifted away from traditional legal debate. The debate has become much more abstract, yet at the same time scholars purport to apply more scientific methods backed by empirical data. This is especially true in areas like anti-trust and intellectual property, but it's happening across the board in all domains. Many top law schools are literally turning into research schools. It's an odd phenomenon.

Often times this "research" is no more substantive than literary criticism, as often the only materials available to study are court materials. Professors have and will use software and statistics to try to support various political and social claims. Improved access to Supreme Court filings will prove extremely attractive.

Now, I'm not saying that it's impossible to do meaningful research with this material. My contention is merely that most of the research is crap, and that the legal academy is not well equipped for this kind of work. Making it easier to acquire will have a similar effect to a shipment of morphine bound for a hospital falling off the truck in a red light district.
That only works if the computer you're connecting to has an index of the entire web.

It will probably be more like this:

- So you're looking for "kitten videos"? Well, you can ask computer X for words starting with "k", then ask computer Y for words starting with "v", and then I'll perform a logical AND operation to get your final results.

But how we make this as fast as Google is beyond me.

And also don't forget that we have to factor in the problem of security (some nodes may be sending in wrong results, e.g. spam).

From my limited perspective, the U.S. is continuing to transition more fully to "rubber hose" policing, for lack of a better term.

If they decide you are a problem for any reason or decide to put you in their sites, perhaps for their own political agenda, you will face an overwhelming range of charges and immediate legal expenses.

The goal isn't truth; the goal is to break you and so further their agenda.

I'm not saying there isn't legitimate law enforcement occurring within the mix.

But, in terms of the overall picture as opposed to court etiquette itself, "benefit of the doubt" seems to have long since gone out the window.

Now imagine being a foreigner, away from family and local support networks, and not knowing whether you've landed on some very political person's list (and prosecutors in the U.S. are very political creatures).

Imagine you work in an area engendering much controversy, such as computer systems security.

And finally, take it a step further, even sitting home or traveling in e.g. Europe: Just how far and pervasive are the FBI et al. willing to reach with politically aided extradition requests?

Political forces in the U.S. want to "stop" "cybercrime" by physically insisting that people they don't like "stop" doing those things. Not a technical solution. Not improving systems and systems management. Nope, get out the rubber hose.

And wield it based upon political calculation, more so than actual, (legally) substantiated fact.

Definitely going to be interesting to hear the judges words during sentencing. I was listening to the Michelle Carter sentencing yesterday, as I was following that relatively closely.

No, fractional reserve would imply transparency. I'm pointing out that historically, several large bitcoin exchanges have lost or stolen their customers' coins, and lied or tried to hide that fact.

Airplane mode is cheating. My Nokia 920 lasted for a literal week during my honeymoon. It sat in the room in airplane mode and zero usage other than an alarm clock and a few dozen pictures. No one cares how long a smartphone lasts when you're not doing smartphone things with it.
They're not strictly converging, but there is ever increasing code reuse where it makes sense. Mono supports a lot more in the box than .Net Core currently does. I could see a point where .Net Core covers as much as Mono does within reason, and the rest of Mono eventually becomes separate packages in Nuget.

But wouldn't expect that in under 3-5 years. Just an observer from the sidelines.
Sure, I remember 1999 (and I've built my own packages thousands of times since then, and still do a couple times a week, though mostly for my own software for distribution).

I understand the pain that older packages sometimes cause, but I think the notion that we should throw away good package management in exchange for...I'm not sure what exactly you're suggesting this new scheme provides, is a good trade. Gentoo is not a realistic option for most situations where you need stability over some length of time.

I looked over GoboLinux, and I see they offer multiple versions of packages, and that's cool and all. There are repos that do the same for CentOS/RHEL; Software Collections Library is a very good one that is sponsored by Red Hat. And, there's stuff like Flatpak coming down the pike which allows packages to be bundled up in a container with everything it needs.

One could argue that GoboLinux foresaw these needs (it's been around since 2002, apparently) and came up with a partial solution to the problem. I can't argue with that. But, it was, IMHO, so partial that it wasn't worth the trade. I'm not sure containers-as-packages are worth the trade in some cases, either, but it seems inevitable. So, I'm embracing it in my own work. It's definitely got some advantages.

And, yes, Gentoo is crazy.

If you want to bring people physically closer together, just lean into NIMBYism and keep housing supply small. As current trends continue and require more people to live in city centers, we'll see more and more instances of people forced to have roommates when they'd rather not, multiple families forced to share a single apartment when they'd rather have their own, etc.

But somehow I think you will actually create conflict, tension, and claustrophobia, not happiness.
I would characterize that experience, instead, as very, very poorly implemented. A properly implemented "active learning" environment simply puts the impetus on the students to be pro-active. Whether that's buying outside materials, or requesting a lecture from a professor, or simply meeting with a professor to clear up misunderstandings, the students are the ones who start that process. Of course, that's all reliant on the students being informed of this process from the outset.

There should be some kind of structure, and I imagine, if there are exams, there is some kind of structure, for the students to be following. There should be required textbooks as well, so that resources are consistent.

And, of course, there needs to be unbiased feedback to improve the system.

Also, even lecture-based students spend thousands of dollars on outside material. And doing so isn't a "secret". At least $300-400 is spent by each medical student for the arguably "required" board prep materials, completely disconnected from how they learned in the first two years.

Hmm but we could program some laws like no hurting humans, or any other living being, that cannot be overridden ? Of course there will be always bad guys that will use AI for bad things, or their AI won't have trouble with living victims, but they will never have resources to power strong enoguh AI that can hack airlines, generate chatters and stuff like that. Doubt any nation or big company will be able to that in 50 years or even more.
Tech Community Concerned with Over-Reliance on AWS
> This is a trend/fad that will likely be reversed once properly studied.

Err, no. It's quite clear that traditional lectures work poorly, even when they are well done and well liked. And that active learning, when well done, is unambiguously better. However, it's also clear that doing active learning well, takes a lot of instructor training, preparation, and practice. So deploying it is a known problem, with it's own research.

Though there's some work on doing hybrids, lectures with sort of a "sing along" question-response, with an effectiveness in between, but easier to train for and deploy (at least for big introductory classes).

Which isn't to say that I don't facepalm and think "we need to be doing so much better than this", even when watching active learning at MIT, with its years of instructor and institutional experience across several departments.

And even as VR/AR transforms education, something like active learning seems likely to remain a key component. After all, good ways to learn something include practice it, discuss it, and teach it.

I just wish Apple allow devs to built apps into the build in camera vs. having to open tons of apps.

Camera's on all smartphones is the most used app why not make even more useful and fun to use?

Also, wearing any AR or VR headset is a horrible experience. AR needs to be created where it's seen and enjoyed without a headset! It just needs to blend in with daily life sans the need to wear a headset.

> Do people really want to run around wearing glasses/headsets all the time?

Absolutely! If I could wear some regular looking glasses that could identify objects, give me directions, etc, I would totally wear them.

I'm really good with faces, in that I can see someone after a long time and know that I know them, but I'm really bad with names, so I can never remember their name. If I could have glasses that looked in my contacts or Facebook or whatever and told me the name of the person I'm looking at, that would help me be less awkward at social gatherings.

Obviously false.

Or have them run as a non-profit which doesn't accept advertising and instead takes donations from a huge variety of sources, including the people who watch it.

Don't pretend there are no other funding models.

Don't pretend the fact the government has a strong hand in their funding doesn't impact what they consider to be newsworthy.

I think one of the under reported aspects of self driving cars is what it might do for urban income inequality. The prices of cars and housing are two big things that keep poor people poor. If you can't afford the upfront or ongoing costs of a car, you need to live along mass transit lines to get to your job or endure a much longer commute which costs extra time and money. Housing along mass transit lines can be much more expensive that housing a good distance away.

Self driving cars can help this in two ways. First, the cost of transit should decrease. Human drivers will no longer be needed and the vehicles can be used more efficiently instead of sitting idle most of the day. Bus, Taxi, and ride-sharing costs should drop dramatically. Secondly commutes by car should become quicker and less of a burden for the driver. This should increase the "acceptable commute" radius for the average person. This adds choices in housing and more uniform demand that isn't as closely tied their proximity to urban areas, mass transit systems, and highways. The end result should hopefully be cheaper housing.

Wire fraud (1343) is both inchoate and a specific intent crime. To be convicted, it doesn't matter if there was an actual loss, but must be shown that the defendant intended to defraud, that is that "[T]he purpose of the scheme 'must be to injure'" (US v Regent). This is also the 2nd Circuit, which has the most substantive case law on wire fraud in the US (Regent, Starr, McNally, D'Amato, Skilling, etc). I should add that Shkreli was not convicted on his wire fraud counts, which are among the most blunt overused weapons a prosecutor has. Almost no one survives a wire fraud charge, yet Shkreli was. He was convicted of securities fraud and conspiracy (for the same), which are also specific intent, however, 'recklessness' specifically is insufficient in a wirefraud case (helpful but insufficient), whereas in securities fraud, scienter is often shown prima facie by reckless indifference for the truth. I believe most salespersons would fail this test in this context. And, virtually every startup I've ever reviewed has unwittingly committed securities fraud, and in the hands of a prosecutor, it's usually only a question of whether they are motivated to target you (for some crime, if only they can "find it") for general behavior they disapprove of, and less so motivated to target a clear crime.
