"Can we blame rich people stealing all of society’s wealth? Again, wealth inequality was very high 100 years ago. In any case, a rich person may cause us to become sick with envy but he or she doesn’t usually occupy 50 apartments at a time. So it doesn’t make sense to blame rich people for reducing the housing supply, does it?"

Actually, yes. This is certainly a problem in London, rich people buying houses that they remove from supply but then don't occupy.

> All this raises a big question, however: will Prime customers trust Amazon to monitor their homes around the clock, and to know when it’s okay to unlock their doors for a stranger? And will the benefit of having your packages delivered quickly and securely outweigh any concerns about privacy and security customers might have?

Probably, but I wouldn't. The idea of giving a company full access to your locks is a bit wtf in my books.

ZFS supports connecting a pool to multiple computers at once, but only by way of locking the pool as a whole, and as others have pointed out it's unlikely to work even then. There's too much feature divergence.

NFS is what you're "supposed" to use.

>how does selling the CDO at any price push the house price around?

Because the CDO's value is a representation of the value of the underlying security, at least in theory.

From other sources online

>A Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO) is a security whose value is collaterized (i.e. 'backed') by a pool of underlying fixed-income assets. It is an investment that yields a regular return, its payments being derived from the performance of this pool. It is a financial instrument that traders use to sell securities that individually would be hard to sell (such as payments from a subprime mortgage). As part of a large diverse pool such securities would represent just a fraction of the total value of the underlying assets making it as a whole attractive to investors.

If the value of the CDO goes up it may represent that the ability for the underlying debt to be paid is more likely. If all debts are being paid it may represent that the initial value the asset was sold at was too low. E.g. the seller is not optimizing their ability to profit. Similarly large firms can signal weakness in the market by selling of the CDO for a lower price, divesting themselves of the future risk.

Markets are not bottom up or top down. Every actors behavior in the market can signal behavior changes in other levels of the market.

You're right, I misspoke. I meant that the "data: " pseudo-header for each SSE message is always included, and repeated for multiple lines (but it's HTTP so can be gzipped). It's also UTF8 encoded and meant for text while websockets can send the exact binary bytes you need and no more. Either way, it doesn't really matter unless it's a latency-sensitive or high-volume service, but I prefer the simplicity of SSE.

Yah, except when they forget to re-lock your door. No thanks. If anything the door should auto-lock after the door is initially opened, but I still would not allow a delivery person access to my home. I'm sure most delivery persons are fine but I have not heard good things about the "courier services" Amazon has been using lately.

From what I remember, the main criticism of the d20 systems was that it was too flexible, and that the game ended up very build-oriented. Some of the design decisions behind 4th edition were an attempt to streamline it with lessons from online RPGs, but part of the reasoning behind it was that this streamlining would move the focus away from the character sheets a bit - by not writing everything down in rules, things would be more up to DM interpretations.

I cannot say to which degree the game systems actually helped in practice; I switched groups between editions, and my 4th edition group was 90% improv theatre people. That there would be more roleplaying was pretty inevitable.

I also haven't played 5th edition so I don't know the changes there.

Problem with NFS is that it's really glitchy. For example I cannot disconnect my laptop's (higher-power) USB Wi-Fi dongle when I want to move around, because the PHY disappearing from under my NFS mount produces a kworker that consumes 100% CPU.

The good news: I found a Red Hat bugzilla thread with repro info that perfectly matched what I was seeing, which identified the root cause and generated an upstream kernel patch that completely eliminated the problem. This all happened a couple years ago, for kernel 3.8 or so.

The bad news: I'm using kernel 4.1.6.

(I'll upgrade eventually, and see if the problem has conveniently disappeared. If it hasn't, I'll make the effort to switch to SMB. I'll also see what happens if I trigger this bug on a kernel with NFS compiled as a module at some point... >:D)

I'd caution against this approach when it comes to security, unless your "default [belief]" is already tempered with "Hey [security-knowledgeable person I know], have you heard of [product] before?" and gauging their reaction from the sales copy.

If you're going to trust, make sure you also verify.
Governments tend to overcomplicate things. It would literally take less than an hour to update the template they use for new signs. Less time than they took to write this response. They don't have to change all signs at once, just phase this in for new signs.

This is a decision that could be made by some small steering group or executive position, you don't need to invoke the whole parliament or government. Governments need to find a balance between acting quickly and "agile" and keeping important decisions to be considered carefully. There are so many low-hanging fruit, some silly like this, but some more useful, that you could really change in an instant, but are not.
Fair point.

I'm on 1070 for DL tasks with the proprietary driver and it segfaults cinnamon every hours, probably when the acceleration for its graphic effects kicks in. It can be restarted though. I know it is due to the driver because every time the kernel gets updated cinnamon keeps failing to restart itself until I restart the entire system. This never happened before switching from Radeon.

I've been homeless in the United States. It sucked big time. Saying homeless people in developed countries are happier than other countries might be true.

Homelessness, at least the involuntary flavor, stinks, and I wouldn't wish it upon anyone.
Well, they could conceivably watch as you enter/exit your home, but if you have Alexa already then I would think they could infer from silence or lack-thereof whether the home is occupied.
If this kind of service becomes common I could see homes being built with or retrofitted with "airlocks" so that you can give delivery services access to a secure area to deliver packages without gaining access to the whole home.

I wonder if you could outfit the smart lock on a shed or secure package box and let them deliver to that?
Great concept.

I have used a few smart locks (until last year), and I must say the experience has not been anything close to good or amazing. Batteries are drained almost all the time, the lock can sometimes refuse to work.

For Amazon's Key service to work well, they need to have the locks work very reliably. The lock may be the Key's weakest link (not in terms of security, but in terms of reliability).
Well, as usual, they have market in which people don't care. Convenience rules for them. On the other hand, when everything and everyone is tracked, there's no need to lock the home anymore.
Nobody but the USPS is allowed to put anything in or remove anything from a mailbox.

If you're talking about a separate locker, not a bad idea but I'd assume that would be a lot more costly than replacing your lock and also would introduce all sorts of variability about size and where it would be placed.
They have a version of the Amazon Echo that has a camera for video calls. Its called the Amazon Echo Show.
Yes, give Amazon contractors the key to your house. I'm sure nothing could go wrong.
Selfish for sure. Soneone is going to pay that 10 million. And I bet your service does not provide equivalent worth to the community. Heck, probably net negative even without the money.

No. If anything, people will hopefully realize this is probably the worst possible idea for privacy and security they could possibly do in their homes and tell amazon to piss off.
You are making very unnecessary comments..
Yes, or a strong-box that interlocks with a closed exterior door. Amazon's no longer content to just metaphorically want access to our homes and lives, now they actually want in..
"Oh, hi Alexa, I didn't realise you were here already. Carry on. I'll be next door then."
I'd be super happy giving them access as it would simplify my life greatly. I'm happy they offer this service.

Now if only they could pick up and return my laundry too (like some other companies offer)

I would argue maybe not iOS, but if they abandoned it, it would be nice to be able to run something on it, whether it be Android or some or Linux variant.

I still have an old iPod loaded with Rockbox and an SD card that holds 256 GB. I replaced the battery myself, and the thing still runs great. I also have a Novena laptop that unfortunately has not received an official update in a year and a half, so I ported over the Linux patches to a newer kernel and it runs great as well.

Indeed. That is the assumption I made. Personally, for me life without progress is a meaningless one. But I can imagine the opposite as well. Once you have gotten all you need you try your best to preserve it as long as you can, anything new or different is a default no, because, why change something that is not broken? That is depressing, again from my perspective.

> Why not better educate people about the fact that some devices are easier to repair than others?

People are far more likely to care more about devices that are easy to use than ones that are easy to repair.

My father, for instance, just barely has sufficient skill to make use of his iPhone, but it has considerably improved his life. I don't imagine anyone could convince or train him to use something different solely on the basis of it being easy to repair.

He's going to have to pay someone to repair it for him anyway, so what does it matter if it's Apple or someone else? I imagine he'd happily exchange it for whatever the latest model is if a technician were to imply that an upgrade would fix his hypothetical problem.

One important consideration here is that smartphones are of use to a market which includes people willfully resistant to relearning.
