SSL/TLS isn't very well suited for cheap embedded devices. It seems like you have to chew up almost 64K of RAM to make a compliant stack.

mbed TLS also doesn't seem to be particularly well vetted and has had a number of compromises due to implementation issues.
>"And you don’t think those folks weren’t streaming because they were heavily pushed towards it?"

It's very bizarre that you don't understand the magnitude of the The Beatles. They are not something that requires a push.

So here's some number regarding the first 3 months of their catalog being available on Spotify:

"24 Million Hours Of Beatles Music Has Been Played In Their First 100 Days On Spotify

The company revealed today that in just over three months, people around the world have played 2,793 years worth of Beatles tunes.

Yes, that’s right — years. When that figure is broken down, it can be better understood as about one million days, or over 24 million hours. Considering that the average Beatles song is less than five minutes long, those 24 million hours multiply into several hundred million plays."

In fact, a conservative estimate of total Beatles plays on Spotify is still over a quarter of a billion. [1]

According to Call A Bike's terms, some locations require you to return the bike to the place where you started from, charging you a 5 EUR fee if you choose not to.

This seems to make Mobike's claims true, the first truly dockless service for all customers regardless of location.

Spotify is mass market music platform, it's not meant to be an indie publishing platform, and it doesn't even make economic sense for indie artists to publish on Spotify.

It's like complaining about the lack of techno (especially remixes) on Spotify, that's what Beatport is for.
To answer your question as to why an IDE can't do it, the reason is that in order to do it you need to solve the halting problem.

Of course, the IDE can do it if you limit yourself to a subset that is not fully Turing complete, which is what IDEA does today.

The issue a lot of people have with Gradle is that this subset is not well defined, and it's very easy to do something that works but will get the tools to have problems, and debugging such issues is not particularly entertaining.

> I mostly agree with you, but the penalties for non-compliance are so staggeringly large, the requirements are so vague

It'll be interesting to see how the first few non-compliance cases go. I would like to think if a requirement was vague, a company had made a reasonable interpretation of it and the company was responsive in making changes to become compliant that no fines would be issued.
I would bet it is easier to take control of a human piloted plane by faking the controllers radio signals, than doing the same with a robot.
Yeah. Here’s my situation, which I don’t think is especially uncommon:

- My laptop has a 1TB disk, which is mostly full. I want to back it up.

- Some of the data on it is sensitive. The vast majority is not - for example, a large fraction of the disk is taken up by torrented anime videos - but I don’t want to separate out only the sensitive data to back up securely. Not only would that be inconvenient, it would be wildly insecure, since I’d presumably want some other, potentially less secure backup solution for the rest of the data, and it’d be really easy to miss some sensitive data and have it accidentally included in the insecure backup.

- Storing 1TB of data on Tarsnap for a year costs $3,000 (though after deduplication and compression there should be somewhat less than 1TB).

- Storing 1TB of data on Amazon Glacier for a year costs $48, which can be combined with various open-source encryption tools (of varying quality).

- Backblaze’s consumer backup product, which I currently use, costs $50 per year for unlimited storage; it supposedly does client-side encryption, though I don’t know how much I trust it.

- One of those prices is not like the others.

- I expect to have a larger disk in the future, and fill it up too; storing 2TB would double the Tarsnap and Amazon prices.

- If Tarsnap actually made the difference between my data being compromised or not, that would be worth $3,000 or $6,000 to me, and I do have the means to spend that much if necessary. But in reality, I’d expect it to only slightly reduce the chance of compromise compared to a high-quality alternative, and I don’t have so much money (or arguably, I don’t value security highly enough?) that I can reasonably spend so much on that small of a benefit.

- Why should you, the author of the post, or anyone else care that I’m stingy? Well, you don’t have to. But I’d certainly appreciate advice from experts about which of the alternatives are the best. In other words, what the right-est answer is that fits my budget constraints, even if it’s not actually the right answer. :) I don’t think the alternatives are all so insecure that it would be irresponsible to recommend any of them.

- I have nothing against Colin personally; indeed, I wish him the best of success. I do think his pricing model doesn’t do a great job representing his costs, since the time he spends maintaining the Tarsnap software and servers, and providing support, doesn’t scale linearly with the amount of data stored. But there’s no rule it has to; it’s his choice. It’s just that the result is a service that isn’t for me.
I think that's a fundamental flaw of IDE's, they don't integrate with your development environment ;)

Something I just thought of but have yet to try, could we have a build script generate the project structure that an IDE can use and get the best of both worlds? Looking through my VS project files, 50% of it is stuff the make file would be doing, the other 50% is just a list of files and dependencies.

So let's say we generated these project files from a makefile, the IDE could still treat the build process as a black box but as part of executing that black box it gets all the information it needs for intellisense and debugging.
Bulldozer and Piledriver worked fine, but never came close to "crushing" Intel's offerings. They were a decent option for specific workloads that only cared about parallel performance on a budget. If you cared at all about single threaded performance or had a few extra bucks, it was/is worth it to buy a comparable Intel offering for the entire lifecycle of Bulldozer and Piledriver.
Washington Post had an article and a chart on it. The top decile has 74 drinks per week, way more than the bottom 90% combined.

You can put whatever spin on it you want, I suppose. The iPad has more uses than as my main development machine. I would have bought it anyway for all the reasons people buy tablets. I don’t see it as a waste of money since I use it all the time, for work and non-work.

The few apps I paid for did not cost “a lot more.” A VPS costs $5/month, I already used a VPS anyway, and mostly I work on client systems already in the cloud. I don’t need to buy another laptop, I already have one that has worked fine for more than three years.

I didn’t suggest everyone try this, nor did I intend to evangelize iPads. Lots of people already have iPads or will buy one, and lots of people have expressed interest, for years, in using tablets as laptop replacements.
Yeah, except GDPR is demonstrably only good for the consumer.
You and me, both!
There's a signal electron app, so there's definitely a signal "desktop" app on linux if you want it. I use it every day.
Best endorsement of GDPR they could possibly make. Everyone knows Facebook collects more data than most people probably want so it follows that a privacy law they don't want to roll out everywhere must help curtail that to some degree.
I recommend Shai Shalev-Schwartz and Shai Ben-David's Understanding Machine Learning: From Theory to Algorithms [0]. I've also used and found Mohri's Foundations of Machine Learning quite insightful [1]. Usually, between the two books, at least one's proof is easy to follow.

Get both unless you're only getting one, in which case, get Shai Shalev-Schwartz's.

Cheers,
Given that the maximum fine is 4% of revenue, I wonder if they’d make more money treating the law as a tax, and just paying the fine.

This is doubly attractive if they can have a European subsidiary that only pays the fine on European revenue.

(I’d rather see the penalties be strengthened, to be clear.)
I don’t know if you looked at the samples or not, but out of 6 samples only 2 can be considered remotely political. Sure, one uses a photo of Putin with a toast “let’s drink for politics”. At the stretch we could consider every “thanks Obama” meme a political one.

I think this is a distraction maneuver by Facebook to direct away attention from the latest events.
As you saying the studies didn't take this into account?

It would be the first thing they do along with other obvious factors, so if you have evidence it needs a link.
I know it’s just an acecdote, but I don’t know a single person that uses Apple Music. Spotify already has a huge library and mindshare. It was too little too late for Apple IMO

Extra: Mark Zuckerberg Full Interview (Freakonomics Radio)
If you do have to be a citizen, I wonder what happens if someone moves to the EU, and becomes a citizen. Does it only apply to data since they became a citizen, or retroactively to all data?

Also, how could facebook verify that you're a citizen or not, couldn't you just say you were always a citizen, just on a greencard in the US for a few years?

Would it be illegal to show facebook a fake id?

Just idle curiosity.
I'm so glad I closed my FB account a while back. It has restored my sanity and I also don't have to worry about megalomaniacs such as Zuckerberg sifting through my data and selling it.

I think we should start a campaign and lobby our own government to pass a law similar to GDPR.
GDPR actually applies to all EU citizen data, regardless of where the citizen resides.

"If your enterprise has a presence on the internet in the form of a website and if your enterprise collects personal data from customers regardless of where those customers are located, it is subject to the provisions of the GDPR." [1]

I find it hard to complain too much about untaxed wealth in the form of primary residences. This is a vehicle that is available to vast swathes of the American & Canadian public. As such, it doesn’t really bolster the argument that wealthy people somehow pay less taxes, which is what I was responding to.

Is corruption really uniquely American? Every country and institution that I've studied seems to suffer from corruption and my intuition is that corruption is a universal element of human behavior.
>The consequence of this understanding? You are the rarest of rare matter in the universe. You are much more precious than gold. You are the type of matter that can walk and discuss and build.

That doesn't sound nihilistic to me at all.

>Some worry that an artificial consciousnesses could turn against humans. I am not concerned about this. First of all, we are many years away from such technology. The "AI" that I deal with in my research is so laughably far from consciousness, it's like worrying about lawnmowers turning against us. But this meme has gotten enough attention that I want to address it: supposing that somehow we created an artificial consciousness that was able to spontaneously improve itself and escape from our control: are we doomed?

Oh God, this is painful, please stop.
No, no. That's the thing: if we have no fucking clue-- "not knowing"-- we have no direction or guidance and thus no way to distinguish (globally) good versus bad and we end up running off what "we" feel is right. And yeah that can lead Hitler but it can equally lead to MLK Jr.

Again I'm not saying Nihilism is "good" I'm just saying it doesn't necessarily lead to one set of morals, and what ever you allow it to lead you to can infact be almost congruent with Abraham or Quetzalcoatl or whatever.
This is less attractive when you realize that all big companies will have a non-European subsidiary pay a non-European component of facebook for all their advertising needs, which would hugely lower the revenue base that 4% is calculated from.
If being a citizen is enough, does that mean that someone who never set foot in the EU but has European parents (from a jus sanguinis jurisdiction) would also be covered?
When plenty of other languages have zero cost associated ANY cost is too much unless you want people to read about and adopt alternative choices in the time required for someone to justify the company making a purchase.
How do you feel about China's forays into social scoring that limits the choices available to those with indiscretions (unpaid fines, etc). They can't fly, access particular services, etc.

If the limitations/rewards vary based on who is in power, I can see that becoming quickly challenging. Internet access could be deemed a reward, for example.
ChaCha is generally faster and has more implementations, including OpenSSL. Salsa is essentially limited to NaCl and Sodium.

From a security perspective, there is nothing wrong with Salsa.
But libraries implementing ChaCha today are unlikely to add Salsa.

It wouldn't take much effort for libraries currently having high-quality implementations of ChaCha to add an extended nonce variant.

The only reason it didn't happen is that there is no formal specification.
Oh man, they really don't get it...
I wrote this because I had told a few people I can use an iPad for work and they asked me to write up the details because they would like to do it. A quick Google search shows quite a bit of interest in using tablets instead of laptops. I think I clearly made the point that this won’t work for a lot of people, and iOS gets close to a good developer experience but has some frustrating issues.

Haters gonna hate, the subject doesn’t even matter. If I wrote about my favorite work chair I would get replies about better chairs and lectures about how I should stand or walk on a treadmill. If I wrote about my motorcycle a lot of people would tell me what a piece of crap I ride. When I switched from a Macbook to the Chromebook Pixel, after a lot of research, I was told by other developers that I couldn’t work on a Chromebook.
I was about to ask the same thing. When will the new laws will be in effect for FB users?

This is an insightful comment. It costs a lot of money to stay in compliance. One of the charges leveled against the ISO was that it was designed to be hindrance for Japanese companies to compete, because the organization ha(s|d) a lot of influence from Western entities.
I would trust Zuckerberg to understand better if something is easier or harder to implement at Facebook. Also considering that they make money from data, it might be very expensive to throw away everybody's data.
"Working" is still a long shot from "crushing" however
I really like FeathersJS. Real-time built in, service oriented architecture, and awesome community.

SailsJS was nice when I used it, but seemed clunky. I left it when all the drama went down with core, and haven't looked back.
strengthened? this is already such a large undertaking with huge risk. it’s not 4% of EU revenue, it’s global revenue.

Features like being required to delete (actually delete) your information if you request it. Features like being required to show you what they know about you.

Once you realize facebook/google/etc probably know better than you where you are going to eat lunch tomorrow you are going to opt out of everything you can, and that hurts their ability to sell targeted ads.
FB Photo Exporter only downloads photos you've been tagged in and that you've uploaded.

Also fails if you disallow it from seeing your email address with a "someone is already using that email address" error.
So will users have to set a new site-wide "citizenship" setting on their profile?

Short of actually requiring you to upload your passport, how can Facebook make sure only European citizens get the added privacy?

Because I know, as a non-European, I want to get in on this action.
I think most countries are corrupt, but the amount that it's normalized in America is certainly unique. People in most countries act like corruption is a blight, here it's not even commented on.

Yes, I miss Chrome dev tools more than a mouse. I have a Chromebook for the relatively infrequent episodes of HTML/CSS/JS debugging and experimenting, since I don’t do a lot of front-end work.
They have a github repo. You can post this as an issue there, the authors are pretty responsive.
I'm also curious as to the answer, but more generally I don't think it's beneficial to allow users to waive the privacy protections. Then you basically get the situation we have today: services can hide objectionable terms behind a wall of legalese that changes often, and we agree to them because we want to use the product and can't realistically keep up with the terms for everything.
Work on the other side of town? 45-60 minutes? LOL. My commute is 2 hours each way. It’s not the end of the world and living this far from everything allows me to own a home and put my kid in a good school. I’m not going to rent a shoebox in a gang war zone just so I can get a 20-30 minute commute.
I'll try. We are different than the wind in that we tend to be more ordered than random particles bouncing around. Our cells are ordered and so too is our DNA, which depends on specific ordering of molecules. This ordering of our world has increase with our number, not only human, but life in general. We export our entropy. It looks like we are going to further this ordering of matter when you look at our advancements in processors, memories, 3d printing, etc. We are becoming the master of matter and the trajectory is geometric in advancement. If we hold out, we may well order all the matter around us. Frankly, I'm not sure what such a system would think or what a thought looks like to it, but I think it might be okay, tending towards a lack of self-harm or disorder. Some views may be more in keeping with that order and they'll proliferate if it's important that they do.

Personally, I'm happy if we learn to live better with each other and thrive together.
> But access to the firearms is the civil right you were arguing about.

Right. So when a gun ban causes gang members to kill each other with knives instead, you've taken away everyone's civil rights without actually preventing any deaths. Which is why the only intellectually honest thing to do is to look at all homicides.

> Either way, as a percentage, homicides in Australia went down after the gun buyback, more than in the US, either by firearm or not.

The comparison is highly sensitive to the choice of begin/end date. For example, if you look at the 5-year impact of Australia's gun buyback (1997-2002), the U.S. rate went down about 18% while the Australia rate actually went up 10%.
You can have valid reasons to want to hide legal purchases. Alcohol is a legal drug, but how will you feel when your credit card company sells your purchase history to some analytics firm that deems you high risk for health issues, sells that data to your insurer, and your rates go up?
