For a business, everything has a cost. Let's say you need to a payment solution. Most will use something like Stripe instead of hiring new teams of developers to implement from scratch.

The same can be said about smaller services too. Something that sounds simple, like sending emails is actually very time consuming due to spam-filters etc. First you have the initial work, and then you have all the follow up during the lifetime of your business. This includes not only the cost of running servers and patching software, but also all the bugs. Every time a customer does not get a mail, you will have to dig into the system to find out why. Hopefully the dev who implemented it still works there, or you would need time for the new person to ramp up.

The alternative is to pay a small amount for a 3rd party mail service.

Who is “we”? You and I might decide it was the right thing to do but you and I are probably also in the top X% of the world in terms of wage.

Here’s my hunch on what would happen: we would realize that it’s really messed up that the only options for people to get basic services we once took for granted is to pay for it; and those that can’t afford it must give up their privacy or start rationing a budget to access news, email etc. for a fee.

On Maslows hierarchy, privacy in the sense of ad targeting is a pretty privileged need. The business model works for the overwhelming majority of the world; it’s only broken for people who think it’s no big deal to have to shell a few bucks extra a month for either more privacy or access to services (that would no longer exist for free to the extent they do today.)
My understanding is that Google has already invested $1bn in the this tech with SpaceX. SpaceX's current $500m raise is for deploying this tech. You may be aware that Google has a had a bit of trouble with its ISP roll out using small cells and fibre. This system would allow direct last mile access.

However this approach only makes financial sense for SpaceX because of it's much cheaper access to space so it's not surprising that "no one else in the industry" thinks it's a good idea. It's not a good idea for them.

Not sure why you mentioned Platinum Jet Services lying to NTSB. Tesla did not lye.
Tesla just want to communicate publicly regardless of the NTSB schedule. Tesla should not be bound by the NTSB agreement, it is a good thing that they got out of it.
NTSB is good at providing recommendations, and they would likely be very good recommendations, in few months when they would wrap up their investigation.

Last time I saw a dateable sample (i.e. straight from the crematorium vs. at a mountaintop or waterfall) was about nine years ago, and it was quite chunky. This was from a crematorium in Arizona that was presumably using modern methods. I do recall that there was an episode of a TV show a while back (Dexter?) where someone did an ashes swap and it was discovered because the ashes looked like they were from the 70's, but that could have just been something the writer dreamed up.

Why cant they just supply kinetic energy? Cars have electric generators themselves. It would be cheaper and safer, just basic cable-car technology. The end-product is kinetic energy, anyway, so basically lossless.

We could have cable-slots at every uphill, and if there is too much traffic, all energy goes just to moving cars. But they have now acquired kinetic energy and can harness it at next downhill section with breaking generators.

I am a senior product manager for a large financial technology company.

Over the years I have learnt to become comfortable with allowing my engineering teams to refactor code whilst delivering new functionality.

This has been a process and largely one of trust between me and the engineering leads.

It has also helped that I have seen payback from the investment made from reducing down the debt in terms of us delivering new functionality quicker and less error prone code. Although, this payback can take a while to see (6months + which is a long time for a product person operating in a competitive space!)

Most of my managers don't get this or if they do they are too blinded by immediate kpi's from further above they can't justify it so in most cases I just tell the engineering guys to add a spread to their estimates to cover the paydown of the debt.

Over they years this has definitely helped me build tighter relationships with engineers which as any product manager knows can have huge benefits.
It looks quite cool.

I agree with your observation. It is difficult to find problems worth solving. I thought and read about this a lot. And I think solving problems is just one way, one flavor of deciding which thing to build. I’d say this is the Silicon Valley school of thought, very much influenced by VCs. There is a another way, which I have picked up from Seth Godin: Tell the right story. People don’t always know why they buy things. Why do I need a smart watch? Why do I need fancy shoes? They don’t solve a real problem. But, they make me feel good. Because I can tell a story to myself. A think this blend of deciding what to do is more art than rational, that’s what it’s maybe not that popular. But if you start to look around, you will notice the story of stuff people buy.
Let me try: How about a variant of your "selling food to neighbors idea"? Build a platform where people can organize local "cooking clubs" (like meetup.com for cooking). You can find other people in your area who like to cook (sometimes) and everyone in the group makes a meal for the rest of the group, taking turns. That way, if and what is cooked is not your business (no regulation), you're just facilitating the meetups and schedules.

> I think writing assembly is a skill any coder should have, especially if you usually deal with close-to-the-metal languages like C, C++ or Rust for instance.

It also applies to using languages like Java and C#.

I work in the Danish public sector and we’re slowly adopting robotics (which is really just macros) and machine learning, and I’m a bit split in the issue.

On one hand RPA software needs to be able to log on systems as though it was a real employee for it to function, because our systems are designed for people. I mean, if the systems were designed to be efficient, I would be using a rest API not a fucking macro.

On the other hand I think it would be dangerous if we start protecting machine learning like we protect our human workers. Right now our approach to machine learning is similar to how advertising companies predict your behavior based on previous data. It’s build on determinism, and I think that is a flawed way to look at human beings. If we look at the science of history, determinism only works for so long, the more facts we have the harder it becomes to answer why something happened the way it did.

I view machine learning results, and I’m talking about machine learning used on unstructured data sets that make administrative legal recommendations, not the sort that suggest analytic graphs on datasets, is fundamentally flawed. We’re shooting toward a society where people at high positions in the government actual,y believe we can predict behavior, we’ve done proof of concepts that are promising as well, as an example we’re able to predict which shitty parents will need “interventions” (I don’t know the English word, sorry) but only with a 70% accuracy. If we start acting in those data sets, we may make matters worse, because we already know that by expecting someone to fail we actually increase the chance of it happening.

I think machine learning is interesting, I also think you can use it to say a lot about what will happen, but we still can’t use it to tell us why something is happening, and until we do (if ever) we should be careful how much we trust it in administrative law.

No, it is, in fact, not mandated by the Constitution.

Electron is basically a standalone browser tab. This is quite resource expensive.

If WASM apps simply use their own rendering, ie the Qt Toolkit they get a much more native feel on top of having a rendering engine that is more optimized for out of browser use (due to not having a DOM, etc.)

It would also slim down the applications a lot, notably when you dynamically link against the toolkit (which also means you share the lib with other apps instead of every app having it's own copy of electron)
If I were them, I would do both with the same stone: Customers get terrestrial repeaters with their satellite antennas, and provide service to the local neighborhood. If you are in the vicinity of someone with a roof box, you connect to/buy from them. If not, you invest in a roof box and sell internet back to "the grid", rather analogous to roof solar.

Basically like treating the satellite as backhaul for small cells, and also having the customer BE the small cell. No fiber laying or city government permits or telephone pole work or anything.
> One of the requirements is that you inform users who you are sharing the data with. If you have a list of ~10 companies is allowed under GDPR, but a constantly change it list of 500 companies is not. The result massive consolidation.

Are you saying that GDPR puts a limit of between 10 and 500 on the number of companies you share data with, or are you saying that it's impractical to share a constantly changing list of 500 companies with the user?

The latter seems easy to do: Just create a webpage and keep adding the names of new companies. Email a link or the list to the user as needed. Do I misunderstand?

What if

We could have a nonprofit with transparent accounting which would make it easy to check the cost of each issue

And a subscription model priced to pay for that cost

And a payment system allowing to pay a similar amount per issue, with up to 2x the cost of each issue after which access becomes free.

Or a similar model which covers the expenses and pays very well without attempting astronomical profits.
In most hiring settings this isn't true though. Language-specific skills actually do matter, for all but entry-level positions at massive tech companies. It's not like my 3 years of experience in Ruby is immediately translatable to Java/Python/whatever. Could I get up to speed in those languages in due time? Sure. But if you were on a hiring committee, hiring for a team that works mostly with Java (or whatever) would you rather hire me or the version of me that's had the same amount of experience but with Java?

From the article, it seems to be a passcode bruteforcing tool. They state in the article 3 days or longer for a 6 digit passcode. Which I assume means 3 days for a 4 digit code. That’s about 26 seconds per guess.

So if you care about securing against this, use a longer passcode (and alphanumeric) is the message I guess.
Does the GDPR actually identify what information is considered personal? I haven't followed it at all.

For instance, if someone posted on a message board, is it enough to rename their user to anonymous. Or do you have to go back and delete their user, leaving orphaned records? Or do you have to delete all of their postings, which could leave discussion history in disarray.

What about something like a phone service? Erasing a lines recent history is easy enough, but going back years to delete records from archival systems that weren't designed to handle it could be problematic. For instance, in very large data tables, deletes can be very slow. Call records are often stored in compressed flat files. Which would mean searching through tens of thousands flat files for lines to delete. And some of that data would have been processed through a system like splunk or logstash that isn't particularly friendly to deletes and would require a massive re-indexing operation to flush the necessary records. And some of those systems probably have tiered storage that includes offline, slow to recover archives built with cost assessments that did not account for frequent data removal. (Think about how much it would cost to download 500TB from glacier, decompress it, decrypt it, put it on an active system, remove a few records, re-encrypt, re-compress and re-upload it 4 or 5 times a month). And think of how that cost compares with "we generally need to reference maybe 1gb of data every three or four months".

A2 is defined as:

* Can understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography, employment).

* Can communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of information on familiar and routine matters.

* Can describe in simple terms aspects of their background, immediate environment and matters in areas of immediate need.
