Another point, what about "personal data" that isn't really? Webserver log, for instance, contains an IP, which is covered under the law as personal information I believe. This is could be part of carrier grade Nat serving thousands (or even just regular Nat of 2 or 3 people), must I delete everyone? Who's keep would these be encrypted with in your solution?
I was looking for how he managed the clean room or did he not go too small. Found the answer in the IEEE article shared by another commenter (he didn't go below 10 micron tech node).

But now I have a follow up question, if getting a clean room is obviously harder, isn't "clean box" more doable? E.g., if you line up a bunch of tables, and put a long box on top that acts like a poor man's assembly line. The insides of that box are only accessible through gloves that are attached to holes on the sides of the box, and plenty of glass windows to look inside (kinda like the box in movie 'Life'). How cost effective and feasible (i.e., gets the job done) would that be compared to a clean room? maybe you could go sub-micron with it if not sub-100nm.
Yes people do think, that selling/collecting their personal data to other companies into their disadvantage should be illegal.
Impressive to replicate silicon semiconductor process.
But wouldn't it be more feasible to develop as good enough process node, flexible, thin film semiconductor devices?
Have been observing developments of plastic based transistors, inks, processes like nanoimprint lithography,
Cleanroom in a STEM microscope and Chad Mirkin's Tera Print system.
Can a small scale nanfab emerge using tech such as Nano-Ops http://nano-ops.net/nanoscale-printing/ ?

I imagine flexible, thin film, large panel based semiconductor SoC. It will not be just a mere microcontroller or IoT node, but a full fleged computing form factor. Think your wall as big plastic computer.
My email address and IP address ARE personally identifying. I am delighted that websites should protect this information.
No invasion would be needed.

All thats needed is to get several thousand armed people to take control of Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne parliament and hold all the politicians under lock and key. And whilst Australia is too stunned to work out what has just happened, land ships and troops in Sydney then Melbourne.

There you have it - control of Australia.

How hard is it to just not collect data that isn't directly related to the running of your business?

Do you find yourself accidentally including data sales SDK's? Do you finish your website or app and realise you've accidentally set it up to fingerprint the user, scrape everything you can from them and sell it?

If your business is just a tool supported by wanton data scraping are you actually doing anything innovative and worthwhile or are you just making an MVP to pack full of advertising and jump on that bandwagon?

If you aren't doing that, then it's just a matter of checking what data you are harvesting and thinking about why you have it and if you really need it. Because if it's actually critical to the running of your business then GDPR does allow you to keep it. If it's not, why waste space, effort and now risk in bothering to harvest and keep it in the first place.
His inspiration, Jeri Ellsworth is just (if not more) impressive. Check out her youtube.

But they have never had the extraterritorial reach that they are claiming under the GDPR either. This could easily be used to suck money out of foreign countries. I don’t think they’ll play nearly as nice with people that don’t vote in their own countries.

I am hopeful that the US will pass legislation exempting US firms from enforcement of fines under GDPR on US soil, but I am not optimistic. Under current law, it is likely that they can be enforced. Either way, the net result will be that EU residents will have access to a far smaller universe of content and services. Most businesses just won’t take the risk.
Tomb stoning?
There is missing information here. What makes you think you are slam-dunk qualified for a 6 figure Software Engineering position when you only have a couple of seemingly random (from what you've told us) projects up on GitHub? Why should any team take a chance on you?

These are important questions to answer because you have to be able to crisply articulate them otherwise there are much more qualified candidates to choose from (depending on the hiring market).

Also what gives you the impression that lying is normal? There is a difference between lying and casting your past experience in the most favorable light possible (take this too far and you can cross over into the realm of lies). Lying is a great way to start off in this industry on the wrong foot - it's a smaller world than you think and the cost of lying is higher than you think.
Which is why many of us will be blocking EU users.

Based on your other replies in this thread, you obviously know that there are more toll free NPAs than just “800”. As many of them have been around a long time, I would argue they are just as recognizable.

May I ask which phone do you have? I used Firefox as my primary browser for at least all of 2016 on a Samsung Galaxy S2 (a 2011 phone) and on a Sony Xperia Compact since fall 2016. No problems with performance. Opera has a much better text reflow on zoom but that's all. Chrome, no difference, but I never used Chrome much so I might be missing something.
I like your article a lot. I do have a hard time to map the layers you've described (Application, Logic, Infrastructure) to a mobile/frontend/ui application.

For instance in Android we've Activities/Fragments (and less commonly Views) as the entry points to the application code. From there we might have [View Models](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/v...) and External API clients that are clearly infrastructure.

From what I've seen it is common to call the External API clients from ViewModels directly. (This is so we can test more logic outside of Android runtime, AFAIK.)

If I get the layers you've described we should instead let Activity/Fragment ask the ViewModel for some data and then use it to call the External API, correct?
If you didn't check a required item, you're uncomfortable with a fundamental feature of the service, and shouldn't be using it at all. It seems like a feature, not a bug, that it's hard for you to override your values about privacy and use the service anyway. (But anyone designing for user engagement will be aware of this).
I love this translation. I first read it in the 1970s as a young person and it had a big influence on my life. I can think of only a handful of books that really soak into your being and way seeing. I’ve probably forgotten almost all the text, but still find trying to recreate the feeling/attitude inspired by the book rewarding and useful, especially to cope with adversity and frustration. I recommend reading it in small pieces and using the sparse layout and misty landscape photographs to help absorb the Dao by osmosis rather than by attempting to overthink the text.
I think it works better than other examples simply because your typical StackOverflow question is more often than not some fragmented sentence missing a few words which are then intended to be inferred from the body of the question.

I suspect this has to do with the question length limit.

HackerNews is a content marketing platform for YC. They likely have European LPs and they certainly have European startups. I can’t see how they would avoid this and similarly, you just need a couple disgruntled founders who didn’t get accepted to cause a stir and report them.
They went to great effort to make it readable and not full of legalese, you are really only doing yourself a disservice to not at least try.
None of what I said is nonsense. The EU absolutely could enforce GDPR regulations on businesses which are not based in the EU, if persons involved in those businesses attempted to travel to the EU. That's not FUD, that's why Edward Snowden isn't going to hop on a plane back to the US anytime soon.

Your argument about "pursue" falls under the umbrella of

>Now whether or not the EU will attempt to enforce the GDPR that strongly is another question.

Pursue isn't currently a fully defined term. Is pursuing specifically advertising and marketing towards? Or is it simply allowing to register? If I use paypal as a payment service, that allows EU citizens to pay, am I pursuing them since they can now purchase my service?

Fwiw, I agree that its unlikely that HN is violating the GDPR, and its even more unlikely that HN will be chased for any violations it did commit. But calling others' more cautious interpretation of the law "nonsense" isn't particularly productive, especially when I wasn't even commenting on the GDPR in the first place, but instead on broader ways that international law works.
So at best this is going to be a dumb boilerplate consent message, like the cookie consent popup that's annoying and always trains users to click yes immediately anyway?
Any explanation for the wealth of the US would also have to explain why it didn't happen for S. America.

After WW2, the Soviets trucked every asset they could out of Germany to the USSR, but what was left still produced a much wealthier middle class than in the post war USSR.

I suggest the historical record is that massacring and seizing doesn't produce a middle class.
No contest.

I'm just pointing out that the creation of a middle class is a deliberate policy choice, not the magical outcome of Freedom Markets™ fairie dust.
This has worked a treat for me so passing it on.

1. Make a list of the 3 things to do tomorrow.

2. Pick a scene from your life of some length that you remember with great detail and with some fondness. Start playing it back in you head, let you mind tell it as linearly or non linearly as it wants.

I have a poker hand where I made an apparently crazy call [Not really, there was massive pupil dilation by an amateur]. It's a good candidate because of length and some vivid moments in the hand with big characters involved.

My suggestion is to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on longer-range SAMs and more fragile, unmanned, missile-carrying aircraft cheaper than the F35.

Sorry if this isn't obvious, I've seen lots of other people (including people in the military) suggest the same thing.
Are these great non-profits that you are familiar with large organisations? I’ve known people whose uncompensated non-profit work supported an e tire school though the other ten or so people involved did about half of the work. That kind of organisation does not scale. You can’t run a summer camp without some full time people, never mind a a soup kitchen, homeless shelter or university.

The number of people who are capable of running an organisation of size X who don’t need to be compensated for doing so is way lower than those capable of running an organisation of size X. Being on the board of a prestigious organisation is a great way to network, gain exposure and help the organisation but if no one’s getting paid it’s an upper middle class or higher monopoly. That’s fine if we’re talking about an arts organisation, like the NY Philharmonic or MOMA, where the primary qualification to be on the board is the ability to write a very large cheque but if there’s a more concrete goal it would be better to pay more to get the people who can do it well and do it full time.

On the fun fact, single issue organisations political organisations are as legitimate a non-profit as Democratic Party think tanks like Brookings or Niskanen or Libertarian ones like Cato. The ACLU, NRA and NAACP all started off as small non-profits one time. I hope the left and right’s respective racists don’t grow any more organisation but they have no less a right to the tax status than Soros’ or Koch’s pet organisations.
Do you think that that’s what that does? Interesting.
Definitely not my experience but I believe you. If FF runs so bad on some phones Mozilla has still a lot of work to do. Maybe they should start with a list of phones that are known to run FF well (eg. Sony Xperia Compact) and badly (which phone do you have?) and start digging into what's wrong with ones in the latter list.
Good luck with that mindset.

> You're onto something, though: in a corporate environment, the word "compliance" is a magic spell that disables all critical thinking skills within earshot.

Is that a bad thing? The vast majority of regulations exist because someone's "critical thinking" went too far in the name of profit.
They can't really afford them, either.

You'll also need missiles capable of hitting your adversary, and you won't find much help building them cheaply.

Meditating won’t make your pancreas work. I’m not suggesting that. What it will give you is a reason to get up in the morning and it will boost you self worth.

IANAL but from a quick review of some online authorities, maybe it'd apply. It might depend on exactly how the relevant agencies are classified – are they a health clinic themselves? The restrictions might be waiveable administratively for a popular cause, or violations might have no consequences when happening between chummy government agencies. (Who'll prosecute, and what effective penalties/remedies could be applied, if a governor/president commands coordination between two agencies under their control?) And given the trends in broad warrants, I'm not sure a future court wouldn't offer a warrant to sequence-all-the-spots and search for hits with some heinous criminals' samples.
There are almost no companies that respect the customer's privacy because of the lack of regulation so you can't in fact choose anything.

Companies have failed to regulate themselves since the dawn of time, this is how the world works.

Edited to add:

You might think this is different, but controlling the supply chain limits these kinds of attacks.

One way to do it is to control the chain of custody so there's a paper trail on who had access to the parts and when. The other way the pentagon is doing it is putting "dielets" into the chips so they can be verified later.

In the end it all comes down to controlling the supply chain.

Peripheral vision (or averted vision as it's usually called) is useful to master in astronomy, often used when looking at feint defuse objects like galaxies through a telescope. As you say, the rods at in peripheral part of the eye are better suited to low light. I'm not sure how well this might work with pointed sources of light like stars though.
If you're relying on a resume for work, you're probably being inefficient in the first place. All the jobs I got were not through a resume. The resume is just there to justify to the boss's boss why they're hiring me.

That's the crux of it.

Though Google have fixed it in such a way that's benefited them by consolidating services and potential data collection for revenue raising.

I've not used anything but a Nexus of Pixel in years. But carrier fragmentation (and with it, the difficulty for OTA patching!) is a much bigger risk to the Android ecosystem and it's uses than closed source code.
Why?

The GDPR is made to protect people from scrupleless companies and practices.

Not all companies are good citizen (Cambridge Analytics comes to mind), and as a european I say "Good riddance".

For normal companies doing normal things with their data, the effort is mostly documentation and good-willed "try to abide the rules".

If you followed the spirit of the pre-GDPR rules, you would almost certainly be compliant without much work even for the GDPR - at least here in Denmark.

But if you business is exploiting data, you collected with questionable methods - then yes, you are going to have a problem...

I would also like to see the graveyard site, mostly because I would then have something to point to when showing that the GDPR works as intented...

Adding to why static analysis tools are not used:

1. The false positives sometimes lead to ugly workarounds needed to quiet the message.

2. There's no standard, meaning different SA tools produce very different results, often contradictory.

A better approach is to improve the language. For example, the `(a < b < c)` is tripped by many static analyzers. In D, the grammar was changed so `a < b < c` is not valid. And the C/C++ committees should really deprecate `l` as a valid integer literal suffix :-)
What I'm saying is that aligning interviews to prefer candidates with this particular hobby (which is not related to the job) is not fair.
It's worth noting, as well, that this part of the law hasn't changed at all. The changes to GDPR are about notification and a variety of rights. Protection for leaking data to unknown 3rd parties is exactly the same as it was.
I think this would be a huge miscalculation for China. First it would enrage Western governments, especially the US and UK. Second, I'm not completely convinced China would win. Australia is a very large country, with a population that has basically nothing in common with the Chinese. It would be very difficult to stop guerilla warfare even if they controlled the cities. Plus, China knows how ridiculously complicated this kind of stuff is to win in the long run. Look at Vietnam and Korea. I think China would be more likely to attempt stronger alliances now that US leadership is basically gone for 2-6 more years.

It's a different problem - I'm part of the Commonwealth.

I could host it in a country that would ignore requests, but the point of the website is to do everything correctly. If I hosted my content in a country that doesn't care about copyright or DMCA, I'm putting myself at risk if I was brought into court as I've purposefully skirted around laws.

My country has proven we are held to US copyright law - see the Kim DotCom case. What would usually be considered a matter for civil court was brought into criminal court because it crossed borders and unfounded claims were made against the accused (namely money laundering) who's now being extradited.

I simply want to provide a free, legal media service to those in my country. There's no money in it - I don't even run AdSense, I simply pay for hosting. So far, so good.

If I do get dragged into court, I expect a precedence to be set for future cases. This will also open up a lot of free historical media for government-run TV and streaming services, and local media producers.

It's kind of like a weird tech protest against goofy copyright laws.
Don't worry, there are plenty other of similar apps.

The Berlin-based clue comes to mind, they were offering period tracking, estimation and other features. One day you get a full-screen pop-up saying that they changed their privacy policy and they share your intimate data with so and so and there is no way to access the app and your data any more without accepting.

Most apps nowadays aren't tools, they're sophisticated scams designed to steal people's information.
There were "legal matters" on the Internet before the GDPR. These scary rogue legal firms can already target you if they want, without the GDPR. Yet plenty of law abiding small Internet businesses existed yesterday and will continue to exist tomorrow.

I don't currently run a business online, but if I were, honestly I'd be more worried about the usual headaches like accepting payments legally, dealing with spam/fraud/abuse, finding product/market fit, etc. GDPR would be somewhere around 500th on my list of "start-up things that give me crippling anxiety."
It's obviously not a trademark since the name is older than trademarks themselves.
Absolutely baffling. Unless you’re doing something malicious, compliance is minimal. So I guess that’s good for users?
Mind you, taking whatever-it-is off the internet is fine too

We won’t take our services off the Internet. We’ll simply block you and your overbearing friends in the EU from accessing them. You might not miss one of us, but you’ll likely miss hundreds of thousands of us. Enjoy Facebook. That may be the only site you still have access to when the dust settles.

Compliance is trivial

Since you are saying that, I can guarantee that you haven’t actually read the law or been in charge of trying to make a website compliant. That is an absurdly incorrect statement. Billions are being spent around the world on attempts to comply with it.
