There’s still something eerily uncomfortable about how they want me to log in so much and check everything. They basically lie about it now, finding any excuse to put a colored flag on something.

Recent example: while I was logged out, they put my picture on their “quick login” page with a little red number “2” on my photo. Well gee, turns out there wasn’t “2” of anything in my profile to see: no unread messages, etc.; no, it was just made-up crap to make me want to go check Facebook again.

Not sure why Facebook is so desperate for attention that they need to LIE to get it but advertisers should be concerned: anything Facebook claims about “active users”, etc. is probably greatly exaggerated.
Some of us might say there is a moral challenge posed by a society where some of us are homeless, skip meals, or go without medical care, while others have so much money that they could spend a billion dollars on complete frivolities every year until dying and still have a tremendous estate left over. It's hard to see what you think is a logical fallacy here; it seems you simply reject the moral proposition underlying the argument.
I've found that after about 6 months I find the controls by touch with no need to look at them. Touch screens more than one level deep never have worked as well for me in that respect.

Agree 100%. I actually just joined the ACME mailing list to comment along those lines.

I hope that wasn't against protocol.

It will do favor to no-one to rush this. It's broken bad enough that it needs a fresh cycle of iteration and testing.

The Alexa scan idea is weak. Of course no one advertises "acme" as an ALPN name now. There's no incentive to today. If the proposal Mr. Rudenberg made were accepted, there'd be plenty of incentive for these same broken shared hosts to advertise an ALPN identifier of "acme". It just wouldn't be coupled with any incentive to fix the other issues.

On that topic, the proposed edit does not even attempt to define what circumstances/facts/assertions a presenter of the ALPN "acme" is hypothetically promising. No attempt is even made to extract a gentleman's agreement that a shared host vulnerable to the attacks which have been described would not advertise this ALPN. Of course, there's no real point to trying to extract that. The shared host would have no incentive to hold up their end of that promise.

But if this proposal as suggested moved forward without further revision, there would be incentive to make your TLS endpoint with "acme" tomorrow, whether or not your infrastructure is secure against the actual attack vectors that have effectively disqualified TLS-SNI-01 and TLS-SNI-02 at the present.
I look forward to you pointing out his actual apology to me. I've read a fair bit about Damore and haven't seen it. Your notion that he didn't have a platform is just bizarre. Anybody who works at Google should know that it's not hard to publish things on the Internet. It takes all of 90 seconds to get a Twitter account, and not much longer to set up a blog. He could have also put a note on his LinkedIn profile.

I made no error in parsing his LinkedIn. He may have made an error in writing it, but the common interpretation for what he wrote is that he was claiming a PhD.

I'm glad you finally admit he did the same thing on his resume. Again, there could be an innocent explanation for it, but the reasonable inference is that he said what he meant. If he would like to correct the record on this topic, he's welcome to publish something explaining.

His character and coding ability are both relevant to the topics at hand, his advocacy and subsequent lawsuit lawsuit. The former speaks to his reliability; both speak to motivation. As does, now that you mention it, the fact that the interviews he gave were to right-wing antifeminists.

I also think it's hilarious that when talking about his apparent resume fraud, he's a delicate "inexperienced young person", but when coding and opining on diversity programs he's a brilliant genius who has never done a thing wrong. You're straining at gnats and swallowing camels here.

There is no battery trademark category. Only electronics, which covers both batteries and this suit.

You are cherry picking. I said I would like the US to have maternity leave. Then added that I would be for parental leave, not just maternity leave, to defend in advance against bs accusations that are routinely hurled at me that I am saying something sexist or transphobic or some other nonsense.

Accusing me of being at fault for catching a lot of flak while posting as openly female on an overwhelmingly male forum is, at best, clueless. I have a handle on the leaderboard that I recently retired. I appear to be the only woman to ever have had a handle on the leaderboard. This is objective evidence that my performance here is vastly better than that of most women. So, no, it probably isn't some personal deficiency causing my difficulties.
To the contrary, your perspective is wrong and dumb.

I'm curious, what kind of ad rates are you seeing from Facebook to appeal to people locally in that small town? Do you consider it expensive? Does it seem artificially high (ie way out of line with what other local ad platforms might have been in the past such as a small town newspaper or radio station), or does Facebook seem to properly proportion the rates down based on the value of a small local economy etc etc?

I guess what I'm asking, is, does Facebook consider the value of you trying to reach those users, on a globally competitive basis (so you're competing with Nike for their attention), or is it cost effective on a more localized basis (you're competing with Sam's Plumbing on third street in the small town)? I haven't tried to reach users on Facebook in the style you're describing, so I'm not familiar with how costly it is comparatively.

There is no plausible claim that the reader is to blame here. If you show his entry, sans name, to 100 people asking them what degrees he claims, I'd be that at least 90 would say he had a PhD and a BS. Just as people looking at his current LinkedIn profile would understand he now claims an MS.

This sounds interesting, but honestly the home page is so sparse it doesn't even look worth the time to sign up.

Even if you avoid the Autopilot, you can still use the Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, which buys you braking and accelerating when approaching the other vehicles, but does not do lane changes / lane assist for you.

TACC reads and interprets the speed limit signs. From Model 3 Owner's Manual:

"Traffic-Aware Cruise Control makes it easy to cruise at the speed limit. You can cruise at the speed limit that is currently being determined by Speed Assist (see Speed Assist on page 78). To do so, move the gear lever fully down once then release.

When you release, your cruising speed is set to the speed that is determined by Speed Assist, taking into consideration any offset you have specified. If you are already driving faster than the speed limit when you pull the lever, the set speed does not adjust to the speed limit—it adjusts to your current driving speed."

With TACC enabled the only time you have to keep track of speedometer is sign edge cases (e.g. Limit 25 but only when children present) or if the speed limit was obstructed.
> story here. I don't think he's wrong; why are most devices here only available through carriers?

This is a rather facetious argument backed by the unsubstantiated premise that if most devices are “only available through carriers,” that it must be a ploy to integrate more citizens into the surveillance apparatus.

It may indeed be true that consumers relying on phone contracts to purchase their devices unavoidably become trapped in a net of surveillance. However, attributing that to malice on the part of the carriers is intellectually irresponsible.

The carriers offer “discounted” phones, quite simply, because they make more money that way, due to financing agreements and contractual lock-in. Perhaps a side effect is consumers locking themselves into surveillance. But it’s irresponsible to posit that this result, a side effect, is also the motivator behind the contractual schemes. The carriers offer these options for one reason and one reason only: because it makes them money.
As described in the SEC letter at GP's link, all of the ICOs I've seen clearly categorize as securities, and none of them seem to be registered. Selling unregistered securities to the general public is securities fraud. Although I'm sure there are a few ICOs that followed the rules, it doesn't seem like a terribly unfair generalization.

Nice thing about wood power is that as long as you have a sustainable source of wood, you're 100% solar-powered and carbon neutral. That is to say, it's a source of energy that is (can be) non-fossil, nor derived from any fossil sources, and which recycles it's own CO2 emissions.

There are very few other alternatives that can claim the same. Perhaps Hydro? Solar panels don't offset their construction CO2 costs, and in fact almost can't even pay back their own construction energy costs if you factor in batteries plus materials, mining, and shipping.
All essential controls should be visible (or at a known standard position, such as the gas pedal) at all times and with a quick glance.

All often used controls are contenders for the same constraints as well, since the more effort you have to put into locating and operating them the more time your attention is not on the road.

Sounds system volume can be essential in some circumstances, but is also used fairly often, so should be easily visible at all times (that is, you should not be able to hide it behind other panels unless it is very easy to return to the default display.

Climate controls are not essential, but also used very often, sometimes more often than sound system volume controls. They also should be visible in the default display.

A speedometer and fuel display are essential, and should always be visible.

I'm not sure how the Tesla display works, but if it allows you to cover these controls with anything and doesn't have a very simple and direct way to got back to a default display with these controls on it, I think that's not only bad design, but dangerous. Hopefully that's not the case.

Your analogy is poorly done, I'm sorry to say. Feel free to try again.

But no, I wouldn't think it offensive if it were relevant to the topic at hand. Which it isn't in your imaginary version. And if you're upset about the "shitty white male programmers thing", take it up with the person who wrote it, but it wasn't me. I just said I wanted to see his code so I could see what kind of programmer he is.

Regardless, if that's the best you have, I think we can conclude I said nothing that is either slander or defamation. You accusing me of doing so, ironically, appears to be defamation. I look forward to the effusive apology you apparently believe due in such situations.

As long as you're happy pouring carcinogens into the air, sure. Also, compared to oil or coal there's not much energy in wood, so it doesn't scale very well.

> For Kotlin Native to truly deliver on the promise of cross-platform business logic, a Kotlin library ecosystem independent of the JVM will need to develop.

Or someone writes a bridge between native Kotlin code and AOT'd JVM code. Or someone writes a kind of reverse compiler from JVM bytecode to Kotlin. Not sure how practical either is due to sheer JRE stdlib size.

It's actually fucking atrocious: 2 parties, and you depend on the money of the elite to become elected. If our system was decent, people wouldn't have looked towards Trump to reject it. We voted for Democrats in 2008 to fix healthcare, and the public option was denied by Lieberman and Ben Nelson (former insurance executive).

I'm no fan of Oprah or even know her politics but it's funny that when someone says "I'm considering a run for President" you can expect a queue of negative news articles.

Makes me wonder if they're sponsored by political opponents. I find it hard to believe that Slate had this story in the queue and that her announcement was simply a coincidence.

Or does the news media simply want to ride the Oprah for President wave?

Since Ronald Reagan there's been a precedent set that it isn't a bad thing for conservatives to have previously been in showbiz. Same is definitely true on the "other" side.

I honestly would prefer to see some salt-of-the-earth person not involved in politics elected to office ala Ricky Muir in Australia (where I'm from).

I don't necessarily think lack of political experience is a bad thing for a politician to have. Many of the positions which hold the requisite political knowledge and support elected officials are hired, not elected.
Of course. The point of 401k auto-enrollment isn't to help the lower paid employees. It's to make sure that the 401k plan passes the IRS's non-discrimination tests.

If people who the IRS classes as non-highly compensated employees don't contribute enough compared to how much the people classed as highly compensated employees, then the company would have to either have to make the highly compensated employees (who they need to keep happy more than they do the non-highly compensated employees) take back some of their 401k contributions, which piss them off, or they have to spend some of their own money to bring the plan into compliance, which costs them money.

Auto-enrolling your employees and hoping that enough of them don't bother to opt-out to let the plan pass the tests is free.

The Multi-OS engine has a much narrower scope than you describe: really just write apps on Android and run them on iOS.

It's not a way to run a JVM language and certainly not a way to generate Kotlin code for native targets.

Kotlin Native is very exciting because it's a potential threat across the board: not just to run iOS apps written in Kotlin, but also to generate native code from Kotlin in back end system, a domain that's currently heavily contested by both Go and Rust, and also to write Kotlin and generate Web Assembly.

It's going to be a very interesting next lustrum.

No, loading a script (from anywhere) effectively invites it into the origin of your page, giving it access to everything connected to the origin of the page. That is, the origin of the script is not considered, only that of the page.

Think about loading jQuery from a CDN, for example, which people do. If third-party scripts couldn't access the DOM it wouldn't be very useful.
