Web-mining for revenue generation is inevitably becoming a legitimate alternative to ad based streams. Especially on "torrents" sites, dark net markets and the like. Goes without saying, should be opt-in. But providing the users a choice: would you rather view a video ad, or use 50% of CPU to mine join a pool while your consume our content, I'd estimate more than half would choose to allow CoinHive to run. Naturally, these services are trivial to block as well.

For large sites (100M+ user per month), web mining revenue may be less than 10% of current ad monetization rates. But factoring in cryptocurrency appreciation and ability to quickly transact digitally and anonymously with mined coins, adds another dimension to the possibility space. Epect this trend to continue.

The whole thing is absurd because we don't have to guess or speculate-- just look at what the actual historical rates have been for BTC margin loans on exchanges such as Poloniex. Nowadays the rate is pretty low, 3.5% to 5%, but it can spike to much higher levels based on supply and demand (for example, leading into the bitcoin gold fork, rates spiked because the exchange wouldn't credit BTC balances with the fork if the coins were being lent at the time).

Uber have significant control over the drivers and the way in which they work, enough to make the drivers workers but not employees. The original decision is here https://www.judiciary.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/asla...

Here's a quote someone on Reddit pulled out

> Since it is essential to that case that there is no contract for the provision of transportation services between the driver and any Uber entity, the Partner Terms and the New Terms require the driver to agree that a contract for such services (whether a ‘worker’ contract or otherwise) exists between him and the passenger, and the Rider Terms contain a corresponding provision.

> Uber’s case is that the driver enters into a binding agreement with a person whose identity he does not know (and will never know) and who does not know and will never know his identity, to undertake a journey to a destination not told to him until the journey begins, by a route prescribed by a stranger to the contract (UBV) from which he is not free to depart (at least not without risk), for a fee which
(a) is set by the stranger, and
(b) is not known by the passenger (who is only told the total to be paid),
(c) is calculated by the stranger (as a percentage of the total sum) and
(d) is paid to the stranger.
Uber’s case has to be that if the organisation became insolvent, the drivers would have enforceable rights directly against the passengers. And if the contracts were ‘worker’ contracts, the passengers would be exposed to potential liability as the driver’s employer … The absurdity of these propositions speaks for itself.

The invisible hand of the market is sufficient to explain it, no nefarious conspiracy necessary. For servers far away in a data-center, there needs to be some sort of "oh shit" access for when the OS dies, and this is implemented in high-end servers as separate second computer inside the server with its own ethernet port (ILOM), however the extra hardware costs more to manufacture.

Intel decided it wanted a piece of that pie, and in an effort to improve margins, and sell more CPUs, Intel thought: "what if we offer the same feature, but use less hardware?" and made it part of their chipset.

As a feature that businesses actually want, and they buy CPUs in the 10,000's/year, compared to maybe 1/year I might buy for personal use. AMD implemented similar in order to keep up and remain competitive in the market.

Intel desktop chipsets aren't wholly different from their server chipsets, and they share some internals. Intel also realized that, since they already paid for development of the technology that it would be useful for administrators of a computer lab to be able to have remote admin access, and made it a requisite part of all systems.

Again, AMD implemented the same to keep up.

It could also be part of an NSA plot (it is part of their mission, after all), but "the market" where individuals don't count as much as corporate buyers, is sufficient to explain the situation.
Bitcoin is taxed the same as personal property, so when you sell it for a profit you have to pay capital gains taxes. That leads me to believe that there is already legal recognition of a virtual currency as property, but not necessarily currency.
IPMI is supposed to be a tiny computer that listens for authorized network requests to turn on the main machine, reboot it, and connect a serial session to the console so you have a hope of recovering access when somebody has screwed up the main networking configuration.

Loads of us (sysadmins) complained that IPMI (DRAC, LOM...) had frequent security issues, wasn't running open-source code that we could inspect, and kept growing new features without any sense of responsibility. We were especially irked when a dedicated IPMI ethernet port got shared with a micro switch to a normal system ethernet port, and it was not possible to turn that behavior off.

Don't say we didn't complain. Say that we were not successful in having motherboard manufacturers implement the features we want in a secure and controllable manner.
It's a pretty big thing and parts are necessary, parts are useful, parts are scary, and too much of it is shrouded in secrecy.

Yeah, would understand that the data pull would be biggest on that initial set up of a newly-introduced device...but then smaller pulls of only deltas going forward (like rsync, etc.). At least, i hope that is the direction taken eventually.
Not necessarily true, we've all heard about rock stars and movie stars seemingly blowing through millions.

Well, not quite. Channels are dying because their revenue is going away. That revenue is going away because their videos are unfairly (see following) being flagged as un-monitizable - which boils down to not being family friendly.

I say unfairly, because any number of creators can appeal the demonitization and have all of those videos re-instanted... but re-instatated too late to provide any real monetary value to the creator.

>Nobody would knowingly use such a scheme.

Actually, most people would use it because most people just don't care that much.

>which is sure to be leaked/compromised if shared with the entire DOJ and others

But this is a policy issue, not an issue with the idea of backdoored encryption. There are policies that could reduce the probability of leak to negligible levels (e.g. a secure NSA facility does all the decryption). Not to mention that only the NSA will be in a position to decrypt your communications from 5 years ago. No one else is storing such a vast quantity of data.

I'm one of the people that claims you can't trust hardware. Care to elaborate why that's not the case. How does one trust a chip with 14nm transistors? Are you claiming that one can 'simply' decap the chip and examine it with a microscope on a Saturday night? How do I then trust that the chip I have in hand is of the same architecture as the one you decapped and examined?

Two things I don't like about the approach taken with these specific examples (and they're related):

- It's harder to see the structure of a page when the parts are composed functionally instead of structurally (i.e. explicit nesting); but functional composition is required because the next step down from components are DOM elements

- This approach makes consistent styling of a large application difficult because it ties business domain views to low-level details like specific DOM elements

(I don't disagree with the patterns themselves, per se. But I wouldn't make them domain specific.)

I'd prefer to code up pages using components designed around a higher level of abstraction: more like UI widgets, and less like business domain specific views. That gives two benefits: increased consistency because there are fewer ways to compose higher level abstractions for a given screen complexity; and it's possible to use nesting more directly, since the nesting won't be so verbose, because the raw materials are higher level abstractions than <span> and <div>, they're more like <DropdownMenu> and <MenuItem>.

(This approach is what we do where I work, only it's been built out of Backbone because that was what was current at the time. It's basically MVVM where the viewmodel is the model for a UI component, rather than anything in the domain of the business. An early anti-pattern in Backbone was to have one-off views for every individual little bit of the page; we found this to make understanding the whole composition very awkward.)
> A ride sharing dApp on a blockchain? Or is the British government going to ban peer-to-peer networks too?

There'd be no need to ban peer-to-peer networks - the payment method does not change anything. If there is an employer-employee relationship it'd break the law if they don't follow the regulations for such a relationship. If the drivers are genuinely small businesses, it wouldn't.

> So it's okay if they offer to work for a "slave wage" as a self-employed small business owner, but if they work through a third party, then it's not okay?

The implication is in part that the paperwork necessary to operate as a small business acts as a deterrent for people to enter into it without at least some degree of understanding of what they're entering into.

It is providing what you're arguing for (the ability to set whatever salary you want), but at the same time protecting society against some of the worst exploitation by providing some hoops you have to jump through.

> How it taking away an option in their interest? You're reducing the avenues through which they can sell their labour, which cannot possibly be to their advantage.

This is nonsensical. If I offer to pay you to work in conditions that are guaranteed to be lethal, according to your arguments it can't possibly be to their advantage, because I'm reducing the avenues through which they can sell their labour. Clearly reducing the avenues alone is insufficient to determine whether or not the decision is to their advantage.

> It worked incredibly well. Wages grew rapidly throughout the industrial revolution.

And through most of the period, worker activism grew rapidly as well. In a great many cases, workers died during actions taken to improve working conditions and salaries. The fantasy that those improvements are purely down to lack of regulation is just that. It took repeated bloodshed to bring about those improvements, and a lot of regulations that were often also paid for in blood.

If there is any takeaway from the growth in wages during the industrial revolution, it is that aggressive direct action by workers provides results.

> Choose any language except Swift.

Bingo. Swift is terrible.
> It would be a hacking target of inestimable value, targeted by criminal organizations and foreign governments using every technique imaginable. It would be stolen. Period.

And we really don't have to look any further than the Equinox hack to prove this. If they think that was bad, and it's clear that nearly all of them do, then imagine it was more than just identity data... what if it was all your actual data. If politicians know that all of their email, their internet history and all of their other secrets will get out if this happens, I wonder if they'll change their minds.
It was an incredible contrast to tour the BMW factory in Munich in August, then the Tesla factory in Fremont in October. The BMW factory was highly automated, and the assembly line did so much for the humans -- positioning the cars in just the right ergonomic locations for humans to work on them. Meanwhile, over at Tesla, forklift drivers are crashing into things, dragging chunks of wood under their wheels, so much more manual labor, etc. I don't expect Tesla to be up the level of BMW; the volume isn't there to justify it. It's just really interesting.

I'm trying to think of when I would have seen BMW factory employees working overhead, and I just can't think of it. I wonder why Ford would even have tasks that require this rather than just rotate the assemblies being worked on.
I love this Intel redemption arc!
C++ maybe, but not Objective-C.

I've written plenty of high quality apps in Objective-C. They virtually never crash. And I never have to update my code because the language changed.

Right. ME does make sense as a feature for sysadmins. Except . . . . Well, can you shed light on the following:

1. Why did your team deem it necessary to deny the end-user the capability to disable this feature?

2. Why did your team decide to enable ME on ALL consumer grade chips? You could have only enabled it on, say, Xeon, as a value-add - exactly like you do for ECC support. You could have made more money this way. But . . . you didn't.

Without legitimate, sensical answers to the above questions, there is no reason for anyone to believe your team did anything other than design a backdoor for the Feds. Sorry.

Pay $x/unit if less than 10 units.

Pay $y/unit if between 10 and 40 units.

Pay $z/unit if between 40 and 60 units.

The values for x and y may be too low to be economical so a driver would need to work more units (hours, miles, whatever) to get the higher z rate. That would preclude them from working for a competitor as there a finite number of hours per week.
Yes, it's merely an enabled - multiple providers will still have to be interoperable. That's not as infeasible as it sounds, though. For some applications it is, but consider browser bookmarks: most browsers can read each others export files (perhaps they've already converged to the same one by now?).

Likewise, this might make sense for open source PWAs. They can now be developed without needing to provide a server, and can simply be hosted on e.g. GitHub Pages or S3. People can now serve different instances of it and people can switch between those.
Tesla's likely behind virtually everyone in this regard just because their volume is so low. The factory is certainly not impressive in the way high-volume auto factories are.

It gets somewhat easier to reverse engineer one of these apps, since the structured data can easily be made available. Not that it means that much, but it's something.

Also we can hope that the next step is standardized ways to store some data (e.g. a common key and data structure for calendar events) allowing multiple apps to read the same data =D
