But your DNS request went through the same ISP; It's very likely that they'd know the domain for certain because you've just looked it up.
I think what happens, is a sort of renewal cycle of the internet. It centralizes, giving companys controll, giving goverment content controll via the companys - a state of affairs which gives birth to a new encrypted, decentralized form, which sheds the old, silod and walled in internet like dead snakeskin and beginns to get subverted yet again.

Radford University, Virginia. Most colleges in Virginia and Maryland taught it, as the DoD/Pentagon has always been a larger employer for those two states.
> Most companies avoid GPL like the plague.

Is this actually true any more (if it ever was)? Yes, I do know that Google is picky about it, but is this really still widespread?

> Both the compiler and the majority of libraries are infected by it.

Why the flame-worthy language "infected"? Royalty-bearing libraries are just as "infected", as corporate IP policy needs to track shipments in order to make payments.

(I do agree it is unfortunate that GNU Ada's library is GPLed.)
From the spec:
"When clients and servers share a PSK (either obtained externally or via a previous handshake), TLS 1.3 allows clients to send data on the first flight (“early data”). The client uses the PSK to authenticate the server and to encrypt the early data."

The client initiating the 0RTT provides a pre-shared key, thus revealing to the server that they're not a newcomer. I don't know exactly how many bits of that PSK could be used by the server to identify specific clients. For QUIC I think it's a 15-bit identifier. Browsers will need to clear the PSK (and so remove the 0-RTT) when they clear cookies or in a "private browsing" mode.
You're making a massive bet on your own ideas being right (and useful): learning what is normally taught has at least been proven out to keep people off the streets. We don't actually have the "freedom from money," so you'd be in a pretty bad position if you had no idea how to get it.

(note: if you have a trust fund set up or something, then I guess it balances out. Just get ready for them to rebel in their teens by becoming neoliberals and putting up posters of Henry Kissinger on their walls.)

Tiny trivia, I found a few blogs about ADA generics used for embedded network abstractions. I find it super sexy to have clean abstraction and low level like that (probably doable in cpp too but ... cpp)
Moderation does not have an impact on the service's legal liabilities, at least not as far as criminal law is concerned. Search Decency Act in this thread for the details.

It's slightly ambiguous currently with regards to copyright law because of a recent decision, but the DMCA safe harbor provisions obviously had the same intent: it'd be counter-intuitive to make providers suffer for trying to do the right thing.
I just found https://www.geartechnology.com/issues/0610x/edm.pdf which seems to confirm that EDM has been used for watch gears - "Wire EDM can be used for micro-

Do you know of any low cost EDM machines out of interest?
Yes, one of the main functions of a masters degree program is to help people who majored in something else change careers mid-life.
Yeah, they probably send those as drip emails when there are global changes to policy, and to get you to open the email and re-engage with their system. I wouldn't be surprised if the support team doesn't engage with the email team at all, or rarely. It's not usually a huge priority, in my experience.
DNSCrypt -> private cloud instance DNS Crypt -> root name servers
Yup. "'Cloud' is just shorthand for 'someone else's computers'."
This is such an irrelevant, derailing, and ultimately toxic viewpoint.

Google obtained this position by being trusted to not engage in censorship. So while yes, they can change their stance (burning off goodwill until they become irrelevant), it's a facile analysis.

I'm trying to describe a certain kind of manipulation that is more specific than "manipulation". But, yes, it's manipulation.
Neither is exactly confidence inducing, but I'm pretty sure the one who deliberately endangered another person's life to save a few seconds is worse.
I don't know why people are downvoting you - the tracks are clearly quite similar, more so than the average pair of tracks sharing a genre. Of course that doesn't justify the ruling, but it seems quite obvious to me than one is at least inspired by the other? People "copy" elements of other tracks all the time, as homages and as rip offs, in good faith and in bad faith. To identify this pair as one of those examples should be uncontroversial, and shouldn't be construed as an endorsement of the ruling.

There are lots of big differences though, enough that I wouldn't call it a "rip off".
Perhaps if you invest in people, they wouldn't do that? I mean people job hop because that is the only way to advance, but what if there was another way? Job hunting, interviewing etc are a royal pain in the backside. If there was a way to have a career without all that everyone would be happier, employers included
> But it's not using me to harvest my friends information.

That just isn't true. Google has several products that involve a social graph, including Gmail, contacts, chat, and pretty much anything that allows sharing.
Been so long since I made the switch, hard to say. I actually preferred being in an all new situation. And u used to constantly switch keyboard types and mouse hand.

Main advice I have, that I don't think I really followed, make time. Literally pick some time to do something you were going to do anyway, but that you aren't in a rush to do. Preferably not on any critical path. It will be slower.
Also I rarely have seen any government system installed in such a way that some kind of lawful intercept mechanism would be required to circumvent their internal controls; they almost always are set up in standard boring enterprise way where an admin user can easily access anything, reset any credential, etc. I have seen systems where people forgot the admin credentials or lost access to the admins, but even in those systems there were easy backdoors with physical access.

There are some systems designed to protect keys and admin access from lower tier admins (for crypto fill, etc), but with those they are generally not archival, just transport security, and there are ways to downgrade or replace keys on request. The judiciary also doesn’t in practice have any real ability to do things to the executive without cooperation of parts of the executive; if we had some insane civil war type situation where a federal judge wanted to enforce an order against the executive, it would be basically impossible to do so without some support of the executive (or an external force, like a state national guard). This isn’t how it should be, but probably was like this within a decade of the constitution’s ratification and has gotten more so with time.
Audio narrations playlist of the top design articles this week
Disclaimer: I work for Google and these views are only my opinion, etc.

From my perspective, Google's goals are aligned with improving the world by offering information services. Search, Gmail, Maps, Translate, basically all of the Other Bets, etc.--it's easy to imagine that the people behind them are more concerned with impact on the world than on generating profit or consolidating Google's power.

To me, Facebook has no such world-improving aspirations. The extent to which I'm aware of Facebook's attempt to improve the world was the initiative to bring free internet to India, which was perceived as a play to lock more people into Facebook. Plus, I keep seeing studies of how increased Facebook usage correlates negatively with peoples' moods, so Zuckerberg's evident goal of "get everyone on Earth on Facebook" feels gross.

Things obviously aren't just this black and white, and both companies collect user data in order to generate buckets of advertising wealth (which, if you find disagreeable, probably biases you against both companies), but from a personal perspective, I'm quite happy working for Google while I don't think you could pay me enough to work for Facebook.
Nobody’s claiming that money laundering somehow modifies the money itself.
> Very few ISPs can track you no matter where you physically go, as your mobile, home, and work ISPs are likely all different. And ISPs are regional, none carry the level of threat of Facebook or Google.

True, all tracking/privacy issues are bad but you can still route around Google/Facebook with simple things even such as hosts file loopbacks, browser extensions, using Firefox instead of Chrome and using different search/social networks.

Google and Facebook are blockable, ISPs can never be blocked.

Even with a VPN you are still going through an ISP gateway with that encrypted traffic and performing DNS lookups. This will lead to throttled bandwidth, can Google and Facebook throttle you down? Facebook/Google/etc have zero control over you if you want, ISPs always got your information.

ISPs can also track entire companies now, Facebook and Google do it by individual but ISPs capture everything, you always have to connect to an ISP.

The privacy overreach by ISPs is immense due to not being able to choose to be tracked, and they are lower on the service level as they are the base entry to the web.

ISPs are your entry/gateway to the internet and now track you and can sell your data, Facebook/Google ride on top of that. ISPs could also crush others tracking, replace ads in place of other networks which was in the bill, and will squash any small/medium advertising networks outright.

ISP tracking and privacy overreaches are definitely the biggest encroachment on internet freedom ever and much more of a problem than destination/apps built on it that you have to go to or can route around.

ISPs also bought/bribed their way into this monopoly reach, they did not earn it with providing products people desire, they have local monopolies with false competition that lessen the ability of people to change providers.

Slippery Slope was coined to describe a logical fallacy. It's funny how things sometimes turn out...

Specifically, it's not a meaningful argument because it's far too broad, and applies to more or less anything.

Example: "Now they're just banning asbestos and lead. But next year it'll be wood and orange juice!"

Does Having a Day Job Mean Making Better Art?
Owner of ShareBeast and AlbumJams Sentenced to Five Years in Prison
It's kind of ironic that Marvin is dead and his particular brand of art is no longer progressing. He is silent on the matter and his estate brought the suit.

Ultimately anybody can bring a suit against anybody and this suit wouldn't even be a thing if that dumb blurred lines song wasn't a hit and there wasn't money to be made.

That also being said that song is a straight ripoff of Got to give it up. Everybody who was a fan of Marvin knew it instantly, but if you wrote out the score on a page and compared, the two songs wouldn't match up. Also if you objectively compared the audio files you wouldn't find any samples of the former song in the latter either. I thought they found a clever way around the copyright using the former track as inspiration. perhaps borrowing heavily, but if this is the precedent we really are headed toward a world where nobody can create something without paying a ransom to another copyright holder.
Sure, but again, that seems like a complaint across the entire criminal justice system—and not specific to this statute or money laundering statutes.

I think your problem is more with the criminal justice system (which I agree is broken in systematic ways) than with these particular laws. These complaints could be directed at the abuse of any number of reasonable laws on the books.
But if they don’t want to self-manage, what have you got to lose by giving them the choice?

Is this the kind of want that is distinct from what they say they want?
Recall that the email requires some way to login, which is probably a password anyway. What do you gain in terms of security (rather than simplicity) by shifting responsibility onto the email provider?
> 50% of the variance in intelligence is heritable

Note that this is a population-wide number, however real it is, and it doesn't really have anything to do with upper-end intelligence. You can't take a 95th percentile kid and make him an Einstein. What you can do is try to give every kid a non-abusive education system that treats them like somebody who can accomplish something. I think early age gifted programs are more useful in their role of not boring the smarter kids than, say, causing them to be educated faster.
They're good questions and would likely depend on how already invested one is into Facebook. You completely leaving it (for example) would probably not have as great an effect as me leaving, guessing on the fact that I've used it quite a lot over the past x years.

For those who are light users - my best guess is that they'll either not see the problem and continue, or switch to a more addictive platform (Twitter). You might choose to hand out a not-Facebook contact detail or alternative preferred method of events notification and this will probably contribute something to nudging another person toward a particular direction (if it's as simple as handing out a secure chat app and letting others know they exist, that could be a good thing)

For moderate and heavy users, they might deactivate and then delete Facebook and learn from that experience and then be wary of all social media from that point on and choose to go outside more to ride a bike in their local area, etc.

It's all worth considering.
I am happy to pay them money or pay with data. Choose your thing. We can't just keep on operating in a world where everything is free and we don't want targeted ads.

And I never used "I'm so very happy". This is where biases come in. My goal was to say that Google services are very useful (to me) and I am ok if in return I have to give them my data.
Good luck to you trying to use these.
What IOS iPhone permission do grant the app that allows this? Is it "Allow Access to Contacts"? I mean, there's a difference between allowing say, an app to be able to lookup and dial a phone entry, and an app getting call logs

They need to split that permission if it is combined with other stuff.

How do you think the 2016 election is any sort of last straw?
I once has to log time on everything. It was a tempting workaound to log time to the wrong ticket (still one of mine though) so that none of the tickets go over estimate, so I wouldn't be taken to task. I even thought of writing a tool to keep the mapping of real ticket to fake ticket.

Also better to try and get more nebulous work that can carry a higher estimate/ buffer in the first place. And never refactor in the same ticket. Create a new one. But that won't get done so just let it go.
This completely wrong.

Then why is PL/SQL internally littered with references to DIANA, aka Descriptive Intermediate Attributed Notation for Ada?
Most email providers already implement (and with very large user bases which provide testing) all the features you'd have to implement yourself for proper security, like 2fa, password encryption, password reset workflows. To implement all that yourself, highly likely you will not do it as robustly as another provider. Also very costly in time.
They get off crimes mostly because they can hire good lawyers. A lot of successful entrepreneurs didn't finish college and instead ran out to do their own thing (gates, jobs, zuckerberg).

I use offlineimap[1] and it absolutely does work. It keeps everything on the IMAP server while giving me a local copy to work from. It's super simple to setup and use, and I'm really happy with it.

I don't see anything wrong in it. I don't have strong qualms on protecting every part of my online or offline presence. In fact I like that I get targeted with better ads which might be more relevant to me. And Google also benefits by making higher ad revenue (based on my data) which they reinvest in the product to make it better. I don't see a problem here at all.
remember one thing though: the phone OS (Android or, less likely, iOS) developers are as much at fault as FB on this one.

From that and other comments it seems like this story may not apply to iOS?

Is that true? I always assumed the fallacy was named for the already existing expression.

In fact, GDPR will require companies to provide a clear and strict personal data processing and to implement "privacy by design". So... in a general way, it will make every company more respectful for ALL their personal datas, even for non european.
It wouldn't be logical for a company to have 2 different informations systems, one for european citizen and one for the rest of the world.
However, some rights will require (human) work on each request, like request for explanation or right to be forgotten. So a company may decide to lower that kind of work by restricting it to european requests only

GDPR will apply to any company in the world (including US) as long as they have some kind of personal data (including email adress) of at least an european citizen. Even if it's in the backup... ;-)
And yes, GDRP is really mandatory after 25th may, and fines will be real (at least for big players... small one will surely benefit some... understanding for a few more months).

None. It’s impossible for an app to get this info on iOS, at least, not without jailbreaking the device first. This story must be about Android.
At first I was very annoyed with the change. I often need to charge my phone while listening to podcasts, and the adapters would always crap out on me.

Eventually I switched to a cheap bluetooth headset, then switched from that to airpods without looking back.

Wireless is really the way to go. No more getting caught on random objects and getting yanked out of your ears. If someone is talking to you and you take the headphones out they pause so you can talk to the person, then automatically resume when you put them back in. Quick tap on the ear pauses or skips the current song.

Privacy protects you from any entity wanting to use your personal life to discredit you. Secrecy doesn't protect you since a corrupt government will intimidate, discredit or kidnap you regardless of merit. What protects you is being able to uncover their slush funds and secret dealings.
Yet your anecdote is within a domain you are already familiar with and strong in. Rather, it depends on the difficulty and the how far the material is from your comfort zone. Never studied math? Take on the state of art in AI research. Never played the piano? Learn a Chopin ballade. Never read much? Consume the cannon of a Joyce or James.

Extreme examples, yet I believe it applies to formidable gaps within fields too, knowing a number of PhDs and what they went through: learning things that are both outside of your comfort zone and considered difficult will almost certainly require a significant amount of discipline and head-banging.
