You could use a VPN to prevent an ISP from filtering your traffic, but that doesn't solve the problem of ISPs being able to give preferential treatment to certain sites. For example, if your ISP gives preferential treatment to sites A, B and C, then they'll just slow down any service that's not going to one of those sites, which includes any VPN traffic whose destination they can't determine.

This should be a key point to surviving in the corporate world. Whenever the CEO or VP of engineering spoke, I always paid attention to what was glossed over or conveniently omitted from the official line. While I found it all somewhat distasteful and duplicitous, it's the game. As such, I occasionally found it entertaining to discern what was really being communicated to me. Most other people take these kinds of official communication at face value. Never turn off your brain at work.
> His ideas might be palatable inside the democratic party, but I think he would have hard time pushing his ideas in the states that mattered

Sanders did better in primaries that allowed people outside the Democratic Party to vote and was throughout the election seasons (and remains, as of the last pollI saw earlier this year) the single most popular national political figure in the country. Every objective indication is that he would have done better than Clinton in “the states that mattered”.

In any case, much as one might prefer policy ideas to be decisive, elections are less about policy ideas and more about soft personal factors than people like to think.

The migration to a multiprocess architecture was handled relatively painlessly early this year. It had nothing to do with the migration to WebExtensions. Many extensions were incompatible with the multiprocess Firefox architecture, but when the user had one of those extensions enabled Firefox simply fell back to using a single process. Many popular and well-maintained extensions were modified to be multiprocess compatible without widespread user-visible breakage or loss of functionality.

FWIW data breach insurance exists and is relatively inexpensive since breaches are rare and cheap to remediate. These changes would have a profound impact on that market.

In the mean time, it might be worth reading a bit of history to understand why our country has repeatedly re-affirmed it's decision to uphold the values in the Declaration of Independence to spend money to take care of all it's citizens and not just the lucky healthiest smartest richest ones.

HA! We got ourselves a liberal here. The world is revolting against your slave morality ideals. The authoritarian left and the authoritarian right are rising - neither of which are ideologies that affirm the rights of all American citizens.

>Is it possible that the lack of evidence says more about the value of those claims?

It's possible but not likely. I don't think the pencil necks would give anyone a lot of money to study the outcomes of the profoundly retarded. And cost-benefit will not be resolved in their favor unless we say that it's worth a sizable amount of money for parents to play dress up with their retard babies. It's funny to see a retard dressed like an elf, but it's not funny when I think about the resources we've wasted on that mouth breather.

> Lyft invented the UberX category

In fact, there was a company called SideCar[1] who popularized the idea of ridesharing before Uber and Lyft. There was a time, maybe 2013 or 2014 when I exclusively used Sidecar until Uber became more prominent. Uber was only offering their high end cars at that time.

I drove for Lyft and Uber during that era, and I promise you lyft was doing just as much to fight those protectionist policies, they were doing it with a lighter touch. In many places they were making headway, and then Uber's asshole tactics wound up turning it into a two-steps-back situation (getting ridership access to San Diego Airport e.g.)

What I'm describing is very location dependent, just as sound waves will be louder depending on your proximity to their half or full wavelength.

I don't doubt there can be internal explanations for some sounds, but what I experience is often dependent on location within a few feet, with some spots being much louder than others. Also, I'm not always the only person who hears it.

He probably could have found Americans to do the work, but I think he preferred immigrants because they were more willing to get paid under the table. He wasn't trying to dodge taxes, he just hated complexity and filling out forms. He was an artist who learned to see roofs as art and fixed them as a concession to needing money that he never could earn from his painting and photography. I think he was paying enough to find Americans, but not enough to find Americans who would stay with him for years, especially since it was seasonal work and they'd need other work during the rest of the year. Continuity and quality were also really important to him and he wanted people he could trust.

The new CEO has only been around for a month or two. I imagine it's a lot of information slowly coming forth.
It's kind of amazing to me that there would be a bonus tied to being acquired. That would motivate the ceo to not act for the long term benefit of the company.
I assume so.

I can only speculate why, but communities tend to coalesce around common culture/race, and perpetuate that selection. Ala "Little China".
One problem that needs to be addressed is that of overhead. It's silly to add an additional layer just to circumvent censorship. Although that's what is being tried in China with mixed results.

At the moment yes, but some phones let you disable Google apps through settings and I had this setup before. Another option is getting root access and uninstalling Google apps this way.

I thought so too because I remember hearing rumors about such things years ago and wondered if maybe the focus was moving towards woman now with this whole thing.
I know someone who was in a similar situation recently. The whole thing becomes catch-22. The manager shared his insights but was brushed off as sour grapes and biased against the company.

That said if it had caused some panic at the office the upper management might want to take steps against the said manager. So it's better not to say anything.

Here we go with the lazy analogies born out of frustration. Using my brain "wastes cycles" and "is like assembler language vs. GTD's high level design structures". This is just another excuse not to trust your thinking organ, making it lazier and lazier with no bound in sight.

No, grocery lists don't occupy my mind and stop me from thinking and remembering other things. Here's how I handle groceries which may be too crude for your high level manager mind: What is needed is my need. First, I own the need and imagine each subject in my mind, amplifying their absence. That helps your remember things like your keys and your glasses as well. Try it some time.

No, minor details don't go away or open you new possibilities when you put them in a list or somehow believe that you measured their impact and are not akin to coding in assembler. Not even sure how that analogy works.

Now for any person who lifts their head from the feast and wonders for a moment; Do train your brain, don't go lazy. Because the next person who does is better than you.

The fact that ME and UEFI have network stacks doesn't mean that they are always active. And yes there is nic support embedded in the firmware. This is how you're able to pxe boot or bring up the nic after booting EFI shell for example.

Probably so, but an indemnification/hold-harmless agreement becomes a much more important part of the contract negotiation and individuals and businesses have to pay a lot closer attention when so far everyone's been happy enough with the "don't sue me, this software has no warranty" clause we slap on just about all our software, open or proprietary. If that is ever threatened, do you think a professional liability insurance industry won't pop up and become effectively mandatory even if you're just building a CRUD app? Now each company's gotta pay up. And you would have to pay for your own individual coverage too if you don't plan to work for the same big company your whole career like classical engineers often do, or don't want the risk of a company laying you off and then hiring you back as an independent contractor as is happening to some electrical engineers.

> Worry about something else.

Oh this is a very long way down my list of worries. But programmers should look very carefully at all the drawbacks of professional engineering before trying to shape software engineering into it, which is what regulation on something so domain cross cutting as data is doing. The fallout of GDPR will be interesting to watch. With the potential fines being in the millions, have any insurance companies appeared yet to offer insurance for US companies wanting to do business in the EU but not wanting to spend the time and money making sure they're fully compliant with each rule?

It's not new ground, nor do I believe it to be necessarily unethical.

People can and do advertise in predominantly white settings or black settings, e.g. a church or a sports game or a magazine.

Advertising has always, always, always been a numbers game. Didn't advertise on billboards in the middle of Wyoming? Maybe because there was lower ROI than elsewhere.
No, if you disclose a data breach you get a small part (1-10%) of the total liquidation of the company before it goes out to pay the rest of the claims. Perhaps have some sort of national unemployment insurance for the rest of the employees paid for by another small part of the liquidation.
Those 3 years were really, really painful.

You should be able to see that the first post is an opening for humour. Speaking of decency and respect, the word "trap", as opposed to being an insult, is a compliment elevating a subset of transsexuals. At the risk of making a deadly faux-pas like the flagged poster, trans people do aim to have the appearance of the opposite sex right?

You might want to to try Spacemacs [0].

It's a preconfigured Emacs configuration (a bit of an overhaul, but not too intrusive if you run it in Emacs or Hybrid mode).

You can just open source files in languages you haven't touched before and the editor will offer to configure itself for that language.

Go to definition works out of the box for more than a dozen languages. :)

Too bad. Let's protest anyway.
I'm not sure that you did optimize, actually. Part of the problem is that professional and social lines are regularly blurred, and indeed most workplaces encourage it. I have never worked at a workplace where at least some people did not socialize outside of that workplace and at least a few times, romantic relationships emerged from that. And these situations will have misunderstandings and hurt feelings, but to simply tell a bunch of adults that they cannot pursue social or romantic relationships is impossible. This isn't just true for workplaces, but for clubs, industry groups, etc. etc.

Therein lies the problem with these situations and why it's so important to have these discussions and for people to be honest. It's entirely possible I have sexually harassed someone and didn't realize it (though I doubt it, since I've never romantically pursued someone I worked with), simply by expressing interest in them. To not have the discussion is to remove agency from some parties and freedom from others.
You're in charge of security at a large e-commerce company, and your view is that your company is bound to get hacked?

I think that's a very sad commentary on how little your company values security.
A potential downside to "entirely results-based" enforcement is that companies now have a negative incentive to monitor for and report data breaches.

Why install an intrusion detection system if it could potentially cost the company millions when it triggers? Better just to not know that data was exfiltrated. You don't even have to cover anything up if you never learn there was a problem to begin with.

Ah yes, YouTube comments, the fountain of truth.

The fact that he was a Verizon lawyer does not refute the things he's saying. It makes him an expert on the law in that domain, which is what qualifies him to be FCC chairman in the first place. Similar to how Alan Greenspan was a managing director on Wall Street before becoming chairman of the Federal Reserve, and the career trajectory of virtually every other federal agency chairperson.

And the threat of ISPs selling our information is no greater than it was before "Net Neutrality". This is something that can be resolved as it has been with contract law and consumer choice -- same as with Google, Apple, etc. -- there's no need for the government to be involved at the federal level. In my mind, regulatory capture and censorship are much greater threats with the federal government becoming involved.

Edit: the laws we do need to focus on are the bans on municipal broadband. This is what's stifling competition at the local level and preventing more competition and better consumer choice. That is where the focus of effort should be, in my opinion.
Just call it billing at the end user neutrality and be done with it. Nothing to do with treating packets equally.

Start with zero add-ons. Don't use any fancy modes, just let it do syntax highlighting and maybe ctags and nothing else. Especially no VCS integration, no debugging or shells. Use it to edit text. Get familiar with: buffers; windows; the mark and the region; the kill ring and how to use it; the standard editing and navigation commands available in every buffer.

Once you feel comfortable with those, then you can think about adding other stuff on, and can add things one at a time.

I've been using Emacs since 2000 or so, and that's how I started. It's also how I still often use Emacs today; I don't particularly care for IDE-like features, and I don't use a lot of packages. And I'm still quite productive with it because the base stuff Emacs is good at is already pretty darned good!
Oh, yeah I use that mapping (caps to ctrl), but emacs would still always hurt my wrists! I prefer having visual/insert/normal modes and spacebar for modifiers in spacemacs. It’s the best of both worlds for me.

Uber is one of the fastest growing companies in the world, and it did an enormous amount of good in challenging laws prohibiting voluntary exchange and in expanding transportation options (which had benefits that included reducing DUI), while making many serious mistakes. I don't think it can be characterized as a "bad place", and I don't think many hiring managers will consider having experience at Uber a black mark. Quite the opposite.
