Interesting edit to your original post. So their countermeasure was to try to taint everyone in the whole universe so a clean room reimplimentation would not be possible? Wow. Interesting interpretation.
The goal isn't to "get rid of Windows updates". Windows Updates are important. Of course, we do need to control those updates better. And Microsoft needs to be better about keeping those updates stable.
Basically anything you do client-side falls into that category. If your code runs on my device, there's not much you can do to stop me from fiddling with it.

You're not forced to use system facilities for TLS on Android. Back when you needed up to date TLS support for your app on older Android versions you would use e.g. BouncyCastle instead of the system's TLS facilities. Probably the same for iOS.
Yikes, just based on the tone of that Twitter thread I wouldn’t come within 10 feet of this code for fear of interacting with OP.
mitmproxy supports TLS just fine. It had a simple setup for installing a root CA in your device.

I feel like this just doesn't work, like, at all. "Poison" is a strong term, and as bad as soda can be, it just isn't a poison; the contrast is too strong to properly work, in my mind.

I seem to be unable to find a patch that will make it so that this doesn't run. Windows Update says that I have all required patches. I first tried KB4088875. That didn't cause this program to fail. Then I tried "2018-03 Preview of Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB4088881)", which was only a recommended update. That didn't help either.

One note on this. Their graphical debuggers aren't user friendly at all. And the Eclipse platform "Nsight" is a pile of garbage. I haven't used the version in visual studio, but if it isn't way way better, then people might as well stick to vim and cuda-GDB... or just put printf statements everywhere like most of us do.

I'm not sure how WINE works. But I just don't see that being the case. All WINE has to do is capture the API calls and transform them into a different WINE API call that ends up performing the same function and then proceed with zero copyright issues.
Top Youtubers already use RED cameras, they’re ok with spending money :)
if the function was still there, I think it is also likely that the old jar or class file (with the function) was still lurking in the classpath or your version control and build system weren't using his revision
I feel I need to run every week day at 8 in the morning at my local community college’s “life fitness center” - highly recommend anyone check out their local community college’s fitness centers if you aren’t keen on normal gyms, they are usually not crowded plus they are filled with students and elderly people. Some days I vary my running, either long distance with a steady space or high intesisty interval training. I then do some light weight lifting and jumping jacks, planks, push-ups, and sit-ups.

Extensively, if I stop exercising for a two week period (which I currently am in the middle of), I’m more prone to become melancholy, sleep in till the afternoon, compare myself to others to a greater extent, have no interest in dating, have no hope for the future, etc.

But other factors also play a role in my well-being plus exercising every morning in the weekday, i.e. sleeping well, making my bed, grooming, dressing nicely, eating fruits and vegetables, drinking only water and lots unless it’s a special occasion, being outdoors (in the sun if possible) as much as I can, having my things be clean and organized, etc.

I don't understand your argument here. If your smart speaker 100% maxed out its CPU and sensors for a month, would you notice? Probably not. I guarantee you would if your smartphone did, though, unless you keep it constantly plugged in.

> But smartphones are literally next to you at all time, they don't need better microphones.

I'll chalk this one up to individual preference. Personally, my phone is usually not near me at home (e.g. downstairs) since I have access to my computer, which I prefer using instead.

That is just not true. According to the well-pleaded complaint rule, the Federal Circuit had jurisdiction.
That's the right order though I am not sure about the last two. I once listened to a Microsoft exec give a talk on privacy issues regarding Bing, etc. He admitted that for privacy conscious folks Apple was best followed by MS, followed by Google, then FB. He described how there were intense fights within Microsoft regarding whether they should show targeted ads based on email content on Hotmail and the side that wanted to show targeted ads lost out. A large part of the reason was that even though it was a free service, any hint that MS was contemplating going through emails could mean a backlash from giant corporate customers using MS's email products. For Apple, leveraging data has never been a major aim. They do as much as possible locally unlike Google/Amazon which do as much as possible on the cloud. Again, differing cultures of companies born in different eras.
A 2017 Tesla battery has 4.8 kilograms of cobalt [1]. At $100/kg the Tesla uses $480 worth of cobalt. Two years ago at $25/kg it used $120 worth of cobalt. So $360 or 1.2% more for a $30,000 car.

This is important to a some people at Tesla who will try to reduce cobalt usage, to battery recyclers, and to cobalt mine owners. It is only interesting to everyone else (us).

This is not China winning or beating the US or anything like that. China has pricey cobalt too. And the best way to minimize the effect of very minor supply disruptions like this is more free trade so that when the price goes up someone opens a mine in Australia and it can be bought there. The historic shortages mentioned in these comments were in the era of protectionism. That is why economists are afraid of Trump's trade war ideas, these little problems will add up and cost the US in higher prices.

> the real ultimate benefit of mass transit that taxis can never replicate is _thoroughput_ in a dense area

But what if in the far future people stop owning cars and so everyone is hailing a self driving car? Perhaps then there would be enough people that you would almost always carpool? Would buses still be necessary then? I'm sure they'd still make sense in some cases but I can also see some bus stops being replaced

> That isn't a valid solution became it is hindering a device in such a way that it can't perform its most basic duty.

This isn't intended as a permanent thing: it's just a spot check on the traffic.

> A majority of phones probably are hooked up to chargers a couple hours a day and they all have access to the battery any time they aren't

The issue here is that any sort of processing is very noticeable on smartphones, since it will either cause the battery to deplete very quickly or charging to take a long time. It's basically impossible to get away with performing computation without it showing up in battery statistics.

IMO it's just a bunch of drivel but if people read it and believe it they swear it to be true. To be clear, I'm not knocking the book but just highlighting how my attitude differs and accentuating that to state that attitude and willingness are probably a big part of the success. vapes with cynical expression

Might depend on what he means by "power supply". For a purely electrical thing it does sound expensive unless there is a stringent low-noise requirement (which would surprise me in an industrial laser).

The lasers I've heard of work by amplifying light along a fibre that has been energised by some other light source -- and that light source is sometimes also a laser. So in this case the "power supply" might actually be thing that produces 10-20kW of light (of which only some is converted into laser light along the fibre).
People are assuming that all over this discussion, but it's not necessarily the case. I drive past that location on a regular basis, usually in the carpool lane and into the left exit.

@setpixel, your behaviour is very unpleasing and clearly violates the most important principle of hackernews: civility.

If you're right, your argument will be more convincing without them."

Speaking of tooling and differential mathematics (mentioned in the article itself,) I also basically flunked “Analisi II” (and quite probably never fully understood Analisi I,) the Italian equivalents of Calculus.

Only when I changed Università and retook Analisi II, taught by a different prof, who demonstrated everything using more powerful and meaningful tools did I get it all.

Same thing with electromagnetism; couldn’t ever not make a mistake with those pesky Maxwell equations until I bumped into some lecture notes treating them with Diadic Calculus (a kind of tensor) and voila, I passed.

Lately there's been a lot of discourse happening in India over privacy laws especially after the Adhaar breach where Adhaar information was reportedly sold for $8 per person.
It was also revealed that the Narendra Modi app, which is the official app of the current Prime Minister, had been - or rather, is still- collecting user's information without consent.
Now the rift between Apple and TRAI over the development of a 'Do Not Disturb' app is particularly interesting because of two main reasons. A few months back the Indian government released a list of '42 Chinese Apps' that could be providing the Chinese government with intelligence data. The list included Truecaller as well. Truecaller later clarified that it was a Sweden based company and that its servers were not based in China. Furthermore the Indian Army also directed its personnels to remove Truecaller. The second reason being the development of a 'Do Not Disturb' app by a government agency which raises more questions.
All this comes at the midst of several privacy violation policies of the new government.
