Of course if you call them, and ask them specific questions.

They would probally "recommend" that you store your Spray Pant can, WD40, gas powered hedge trimmer (residual gas in tank), and even the old classic car in shed away from your home.

I don't doubt what your claiming, but you don't call them with every concern.

Once you call--they have a evidence on you. Unfair--hell yes. Thieving people.

I think Insurance companies get away with way too much. They send out these huge policy's filled with what what they don't cover, but happily take our money.

Most people don't realize how little their Homeowner's cover.

On CA, we have a Insurance Comminisher. He seemingly lets Insurance Companies do whatever they want?

Probably saying something like

Versus

}

it’s a fairly weak example but you get the idea.

I don't understand how this feature changes anything? If he operates via DM them you and his other victims can pretty easily share the evidence with management today. I don't think this feature is going to a be a magic cure-all where management pro-actively monitors communications for this type of behavior - it will still require individual(s) to escalate a complaint that management can then investigate.
From your linked article:

So you can destroy them easily by overcharging or other mistake, but LiFePO4 is probably the safest of the lithium chemistries as far as fire goes.
It's not really selling it's user data for money; it's selling access to it's users for money. Sure, user data allows some advanced targeting, but the reason they make the profit they do is that people are buying ads for people to see, not data about them. That's an important distinction.
I certainly will in the future. Thank you for the kind feedback!
Go preach somewgere else. Your arguments make no logical sense without taking your whole odd beliefs as cannon. You literally have nothing to say buy assert your favorite religion started everything good. At least back your conclusions up with logic post-fact.
With partial data of 50 million CA was able to do such a social damage, what about FB and others sitting on billions of full users psychological profiles and playing irresponsible saying trut us?
> I'm serious about doing what it takes to protect our community. While this specific issue involving Cambridge Analytica should no longer happen with new apps today, that doesn't change what happened in the past. We will learn from this experience to secure our platform further and make our community safer for everyone going forward.

It's good that Facebook took steps to secure the platform against third parties crawling the graph and scraping millions of users' personal details, which is what Cambridge Analytica reportedly did, and which was not a violation of their policy at the time. Kudos.

So the consensus seems to be that what Cambridge Analytica did in the Brexit vote and the 2016 US Election was wrong. Now they won't be able to do the same thing via Facebook. But what's keeping Facebook themselves from doing the same thing that Cambridge Analytica did in future elections?

I didn't think that these benchmarks would get this much attention. I personally made them because I could not believe that identical Windows and Linux machines were performing so different in typical software development tasks (Git, CMake, GCC, file copying, ...). I threw in a few more machines (Raspberry, Mac, ...) into the mix to get some perspective.

Most machines were stock configured (Ubuntu ext4 install for Linux, Windows 10 w/ Windows Defender, macOS X stock install, etc), so I believe that they should be representative for average users.

The benchmark suite is open source and easy to run on your own hardware if you like to get more accurate/representative figures for a particular setup.
What if, periodically, the orders are recalculated? Like 95% of cases are not going to reorder items back and forth 64 times in a session. If that does happen then take the extra time to reset everything (1,2,3,4...).

And maybe periodically do the same for all values in your table? Like when users are not interacting with the items maybe.
>The trusting developers not to sell any data but putting zero safeguards in place to prevent this and extremely punitive repercussions despite being repeatedly told by the public, media, and even high level employees tells me Facebook can't plead ignorance to this and they not only knew this was happening, but they probably intended for it to happen.

Why would they intend for it to happen? They didn't make any money off of this exfiltration, CA paid people via Mechanical Turk to install the application so that they could mine their data. Facebook didn't get a dime. In fact, they have a monetary interest in preventing this, because their data is worth something and these guys just got it from free usage of their API. So the insinuation that Facebook wanted this to happen, or looked away because it benefited them, makes zero sense.

What kind of safeguards are you imagining? How do you have 3rd parties interface with Facebook without letting those applications reason about the information within a Facebook account? Tinder is valued at over a billion dollars and it's not possible to use it without a Facebook account-- should Facebook shut that down and ban the entire concept of 3rd party Facebook interaction?

I do not understand the anger. They did nothing wrong. I can't believe that people are legitimately arguing that users shouldn't have a right to expose their information to apps.
If that's your interpretation then we fundamentally disagree.

"Random guy on Youtube" happened to be an intelligent and capable human being who learned all the relevant techniques and principles from available information without paying for "credentials".

Go watch the technique used for testing, evaluating, sorting, and re-using batteries used and tell me specifically what is unsafe rather than trying to spread fear because there's no college degree/certification/other form of economic gate keeping.

I'm not attacking people with credentials, only the type of people who vaguely threaten people not to twist 120VAC wires together in a wirenut unless they understand Maxwell's Equations.

I really can't tell, but if I were to guess it would be the difference between something like
`User.where(thing: 'foo')`
and something like
`Foo = 'foo'; User.where(thing: Foo)`

So you can refactor/find things that use Foo easier than 'foo'. You would probably get editor support for the constant "Foo" and not for the string "foo".

My guess is this might help prevent long term tracking-updating? He does mention this:

> we immediately banned Kogan's app from our platform.

So my guess is the app still existed, and could probably keep querying data to keep user profiles updated. What you like, do, who you interact with; it all changes with time, so the data's value is slowly lost as it diverges from reality.

Moreover, there might be apps I gave access to back in the day when I didn't know better that could potentially still access my information. Even if the actors aren't malicious now, this could probably to prevent Chrome-extension like situations. Apparently legit extensions have been bought in the past by malicious actors with the purpose of exploiting their broad install-base and permissions [1]. I could see something similar happening with Facebook apps.

Fair enough, I'm used to pushing the packs a bit harder on discharge so I swapped that around(charge/discharge).
Used to use my.y.com daily as my home page until they fixed it to be unusable and then abandoned it.
Why would Amazon want to give this data away? If somebody else can use the data better than amazon, they'll probably steal the sales from Amazon too, and amazon loses out.
Yes, this. While I appreciated Google's relevancy for search it didn't blow me away that much -- the real special sauce that early-Google had was the extremely lightweight search page. At a time when Altavista, lycos, Yahoo, etc. were just piling on goop after goop onto their landing pages, Google did a really smart thing and disrupted the whole space with its very minimal style. Not even sure how deliberate that was, but it was a huge advantage.
> When a nationstate says "It's illegal to do X" but has mandatory accounting practices that do not measure X but only measure profit

We don't need accountants to measure legality. That's what we have law enforcement and courts for. Investors care about profits; behaving illegally should hurt profits. Deputising a multi-billion dollar company's thousands of shareholders as its moral police is an absurd proposal.

Which they flagrantly violated...
How about additionally,
1) providing an "Advanced Feed" providing each user a log of every data field exfiltrated, date/time/who/IP addr,/ etc.

2) requiring every single advert and it's targeting parameters, that runs on the system to be made available in a fully searchable advert pool for anyone to search. This would allow people to see what is being targeted, journalists to figure out what targeting is happening (much of the Cambridge Analytica nonsense happened under the radar for a long time), and regulators to uncover scams.

Mere transparency. they could probably figure out a way that this will make them more money if they actually looked at it (e.g., support an ecosystem of people studying the data and figuring out what works better, to better utilize the platform).
ugh that issuetracker link requires you to sign in with a google account...
The great irony here is that Facebook dragged someone through the courts when they tried to ask for their personal archive, but is somehow now presenting the exfiltration of 50m people's data as no big deal.
Ah, apologies then. You probably know more about it than I do. I just show up for the Strawberry Festival every year!

Then those voice commands start returning "affiliate" responses.

Amazon's got this figured out. Some significant portion of voice commands are:

-User sees they've run out of widgets

-User says "Alexa, order some widgets"

Having the ability to drive that traffic to one store or another is a big advantage that stores will pay for.
AsiaBSDCon: Introducing FreeBSD Virtual Private Cloud
So FB opened up their platform to 3rd party Devs in 2007 and this CA incident happened in 2013. FB changed their policy of not allowing broad data access to these Devs in 2014. So my question is: Why they admit that they'd audit the pre-2014 apps now when NYT and Guardian/Observer broke the news? And what policy is in place now that makes sure that these 3rd party Devs won't sell whatever info they do collect as per post-2014 policy? I am not satisfied with what Mark said just now. We need more answers.
Even if CA deleted their data, what about all the other data that has been taken out as per this [1]?

All our data associated with FB unique id is out there. My understanding this has stopped in 2015 but for sure?

Hopefully the data that is out there becomes less relevant over time.

This is a fair point.

Yes, I come into lots of issue with Spring autoloader to the point I have a zsh alias call `kill_rails` to make sure it kills all the rails and spring instances :(.

That's being said, Spring is an external tool to help solve the slowness of booting up Rails app. I have work in Java/Python and they are slow to bootup too just depend on how big the project is.

Tool like: https://github.com/Shopify/bootsnap help to speed up this as well.

Other option to look at: https://github.com/danielpclark/faster_path

These solves the issue of scanning path, address slowness in a different way compare to preload mechanism of Spring.

I don't.

Because months earlier, he was making public comments that it was a 'crazy idea' that his company could have influenced elections shortly after his chief information security officer was pushing against him and Sheryl Sandberg to investigate and disclose russian activity on the platform. Additionally, his company was actively advertising election related products.

This man isn't owning responsibility; he's trying to defuse a PR bomb of his own creation.
They sold the data by proxy by knowingly letting the 3rd parties syphon the data. Why else would they be at CA when the cops showed up? Are you being intentionally obtuse?
Please forgive my ignorance, since I'm a neophyte in this field.

But since you have taking true value & training data, both, from the past, won't your "prediction value" be prone to lots of biases?
That's mostly what I use at home too. It works very well.

It doesn't quite work well while on the road sometimes. For those cases, I have a docker running diginc/pi-hole (with some additional hosts file blocking going on), then I point my laptops DNS towards that and am good to go.

I've called this model "microsubscription", on the idea that it combines features of micropayment and subscription. It's arguably bundling and it arguably isn't, so I'm going to go ahead with the cool name.

Flattr are doing it, Google Contributor was doing it drifted away. Readability used to do it. In fact, so many people have thought of this model that I have kinda lost track.

Google Subscriber splits the middle. It's not really a walled garden, but Google's reach and interpenetration of the open internet is so total that it feels and behaves very much like one.

I was granted a patent last year on a technical aspect: how to (1) log the visits, (2) let visitors through a paywall, (3) without revealing their identity to the publisher. This is easy (but potentially expensive) if you have a walled garden (Netflix, Spotify, Texture). It's more difficult if you don't.

This is just eyewash. The real business of facebook is selling and using user data for their profits.
I think everyone is in search of a tribe to be a part of, even the hikikomori. I'm a loner also. I grew up on the countryside with no one to talk except close family. I had a lot of books to read. The internet looks like a lot of tribes but the more you observe, the more inhuman it appears. The web seems like the ideal place to fit in with all its possibilities but it falls short. Even in the country I interact with people on a weekly basis.

Now if I were a real loner I'd move to the wastes of Alaska and tough it out there. Most of us depend on civilization and that makes us all oddly social at least.

I do hate crowds and their single cell animal like behavior. Sometimes I avoid a crowd behavior to a fault. It is hard to undo 40 years of my behavior.
You could probably do #1 pretty easily with a descending sort on each country's population.
Yea, actually selling their user data would put them out of business... Why buy the cow if you can get the milk for free?
This statement indicates that Facebook is for a while going to be turning to regulatory engineering.

Engineers hate this kind of stuff. Expect an outflux of talent from the company in the next year or so.

Please do finish your education... there seems to be an anti-college sentiment on HN, but you've put in so much work, it just makes sense to get it over with, get the damn certificate. It may not seem like much when working for private companies, but when you work with Governments (either on contracts or for immigration etc.) more paper education does matter, alumni networks are helpful. And you can go to thailand even after you get the degree :).
'The American Way' – Making the Depression Great
Every news source—even crowdsourced ones—has a bias. However, there are news organizations that strive to present the facts, as best as they understand them. Of course, they miss the mark—and their worldview inevitably bleeds in—but the top-shelf organizations do their best.

I subscribe to the NYT (the print edition—trying to figure out how to make news more accessible to my kids to stumble upon, and I like how it helps me focus on reading). As a Michigander, I definitely detect a progressive New England lense at times, but the quality of their journalism is generally superb.
How about allowing pseudonyms for a start, like the original Internet before FB corrupted it?

The benefit of making promises instead of taking action, is that people generally forget about promises if you let enough time elapse.
It's in Facebook's benefit for advertisers to gather all that data, because the only way they can actually use it to make money is by advertising to the users on Facebook. I find it incredibly hard to believe that this thought never crossed anybody's mind.
Well, really, Google deliberately kept out of content provision for years in a way that Yahoo didn't. Google was only interested in being the gateway or the platform, not the publisher. That seems to have worked for them.
You were wrong (and were also being uncharitable). The reason why I phrased the definition the way I did was so that I did not preclude the possibility of killing someone who was not innocent. This includes every instance of lack of innocence, but minimally, instances of self-defense.

I found your talking about implicature patronizing.

I agree, we can't communicate with people who insist on Humpty Dumpty's rule; what you fail to recognize is that you're happy to use Humpty Dumpty's rule in regard to 'human'. You have to make recourse to odd language like 'clump of cells'. The human fetus is a human being; that is, it is a human, and it doesn't really matter that you don't want to admit what is obvious to biologists, OB/GYNs, couples trying to conceive, people in parts of the world that haven't been colonized by Westerners and their ideologies, etc.
Given Ramachandran's Phantom Limb experiments, the "hit a fake hand with a hammer" experiment, and an experiment done by a crazy/brilliant Swede[1], I think it's very plausible that Hawking though of the synthesized voice as his voice. (I mean, he intellectually knew that it wasn't, but that doesn't make the feeling go away.)

[1] I can't find a link for the life of me, but I think I saw it on BBC's Horizon programme where a person wears a camera helmet which is showing a different person's perspective which includes the wearer as a "third person". In a few minutes the wearer starts to feel dissociated from their own body and starts to feel associated with the "viewer". It's a really weird and interesting experiment. Hopefully, this'll spark a memory and someone can find a video.

What GPU is in that prebuilt? I think you'd probably want a 1070 especially for windows MR headsets.

Right now with gpu and memory prices inflated due to cryto mining, prebuilts are very competitively priced. If you want to build your own, definitely go with a motherboard gpu bundle otherwise you'll be paying $$$ for a gpu.
> dejavu is the missing web UI for Elasticsearch. Existing web UIs leave much to be desired or are built with server side page rendering techniques (I am looking at you, Kibana).

So less so "missing" UI and more "outdated" UI.

I personally like Kibana but I am happy to see some innovation in the space. Competition can only help.

I love that this can be run as a Docker container or as a Chrome extension. With the quick setup I'll probably give it a try. It looks nice.
Direct X Raytracing: Further Unification
Finance, news, fantasy-sports, email, messenger, groups, My Yahoo!, Delicious, Flickr... They're all useful.

I agree these are useful, but they weren't very good businesses. Take email. Email is useful. Most of us use it every day, arguably for more important communications than facebook. Still, facebook is a massive business and email is barely a business at all, generally.

Yahoo was blinkered by chances at big wins for the same reason VCs and nearly anyone in that game is, they're very, very big relative to the medium sized ones.

core vision... they kind of lost that game. The first vision was the directory, which is really just search with a different back-end. This turned out to be an excellent business, but they didn't realize what they had.^ Google ate the whole pie.

The 2nd vision was content, to be a sort of online publication/media business. They half abandoned the first vision for this one. Your examples mostly fit here. This turned out to be (mostly) a terrible business type, and the wide, generalist variant that type which yahoo was going for turned out to be even worse.

I don't really know what they could have done from the early 2000s onwards. Your core vision needs to be, the core of what you do. There wasn't a core anymore.

^even though they basically invented adwords, the business model for that business.
This may be possible, however it is going to be interesting to see how Facebook gets standing to sue CA. From what I understood from Zuckerberg's statement, the agreement was between Facebook and Kogan. If CA got the data from Kogan, it seems like Facebook wouldn't have standing to go after CA directly. I haven't seen the specific agreements made by each party in this case, so I can't say for sure, but traditionally I think Facebook could only go after Kogan, who then may be able to go after CA depending on the specifics of their agreement.
