It's because Microsoft took this shit seriously and built a credible competitor. They are very wisely leveraging their popular enterprise software like Office 365 and Active Directory and branding them as Azure services. Then selling everything under the same enterprise licensing umbrella. Not to mention all the retail companies that are in direct competition with Amazon and would gladly send their money elsewhere. I've switched from AWS to Azure recently and haven't missed a beat.
This is a great idea. I would make it configurable, with a vaguely worded configuration directive like:

DisableAutoDisable I_Know_What_I_Am_Doing

Then add logic that prefers up to date nodes over out of date nodes, if that does not already exist.

I'm using Docker just as a serverless app container with Fargate for long running apps - services that are inappropriate for Lambda. All of the infrastructure resources are managed AWS services - configuration, databases, load balancers, messaging, autoscaling, etc.

For Windows stuff, I'm using autoscaling EC2 instances. The issue like I said above is that the granularity for billing Windows EC2 instances is 1 hour compared to per second billing for Linux instances.

I'm not anti-Linux but the ops stuff for AWS revolves around either scripting with the CLI and batch files for simple stuff or Python+Boto3 for the more complicated scenarios.

As a developer, all the resources are managed, you never touch the underlying OS.
Actually, I'd say your anecdata can also support how alternatives might be difficult for many people.

In your first example you mentioned a 'she'. From what I've been told from friends in the service industry, that's a plus (even somewhat if you're not considered attractive, but obviously much less so).

In your second example it didn't last, so it's quite possible a number of these "didn't last" experiences lead to doing deliveroo-style work.

Furthermore, I've been shocked by how terrible some people are at 1) considering alternatives to whatever choices they think they have, and 2) doing okay in an interview.

I get the impression lots of people are just not rational actors in these matters, and there are all sorts of hidden factors that can prevent someone from going for the 'better' jobs. I don't have strong opinions on what we should conclude from that, but I am at least inclined to think making the shittiest option as good as possible might be an all-round good thing to pursue.
Huh? A Google Suite account is 4 euros a month. No tracking and profiling.
> To illustrate: there is common belief that metaphysics became irrelevant -- that it was replaced by science. This is, in itself, a metaphysical position

That argument doesn't seem valid. The notion that fairies don't exist is, in itself, a fairyological position; still, few would accept that fairyology is a legitimate field of endeavour.

> I am only claiming that it is accepted by most people without any reflection.

Many things are accepted by most people without much reflection. Often that's because they really are as simple as they look.

> Some boundaries of scientific knowledge are quite visible. For example, consciousness. You might argue that consciousness emerges from matter interacting in a complex way (emergentism), and you might be right, but this is accepted as a serious scientific theory although it has zero content -- no way to falsify empirically, no explanatory mechanism proposed.

What are the outstanding empirical questions about consciousness? As soon as you go down to an empirical level, you find that no mysticism is necessary: there are valid, interesting questions to be asked and answered, but they are no more outside science than questions about how, say, protein folding works.

Probably not sustainable as an ad supported business. We may see a bigger push to a subscription based model—-one many people have come to hate, but was one twenty years ago people paid $10-30, mo. for the subs to their favorite daily.

Now sure those prices were subsidized by ads. But they can still use utargeted ads, in addition, cost of the “medium” and distribution is much lower.
> non-targeted ads suck as they usually end up being like Viagra ads since they pay the most.

Ads on TV have been non-targeted since the TV was invented, TV stations have survived thus far and are doing a little better than online publishers.

Note that we are talking of tracking individuals. You can still say a lot about the demographics of a TV show and thus do ads targeting based on the actual content being watched. That's not user profiling and while you can infer a lot about those watching, it's not dangerous either, because you're not keeping a history of what that user watched.

Saying that tracking individuals is necessary for getting revenue is disingenuous.

Besides, in case you aren't watching the news, the biggest problem for publishers is by far ad-blocking, not GDPR. If they would have respected people's privacy, security and time, we wouldn't have been in this mess and we wouldn't need laws. In our country we have a saying, you sleep in the bed you make ;-)

I do. I think it was a revolutionary improvement. It's so much more intuitive to use, it's the one thing that makes your grandma able to use an iPad. It's hard to overstate how important this was. The fact that now you know about it, it seems obvious and not a big deal emphasises how big of an improvement it was.

I also believe this. If you run a side project by yourself and you don't target EU users directly, but might have a few, it most likely won't be worth the effort to actually follow through on enforcement.

However, that seems like a very arbitrary line and governments love to waste money.
Regulations tend to favor incumbents, decreasing competition, and thereby increase monopoly and creating central hubs of systemic risk. There is no free lunch with one-size-fits-all rule making. Unfortunately regulators think there is.

Yes - if rates continue rising, along with prices, then returns will get compressed. Check out my analysis of that dynamic here:

https://ramenretirement.com/2018/05/16/interest-rate-impact/

Doesn't mean you shouldn't invest - just figure out what sort of returns you're willing to accept (along with the corresponding risk / cushion you need), and hold that line when you run your diligence. FWIW, I think you can still find single family investments in the midwest that will generate 8%+ cash on cash returns (after fully accounting for all direct, and reserved expenses). That's still a pretty good return, but getting harder to find.

It's hard to say when the market will soften or correct, so a dollar-cost-averaging approach to buying RE is probably a good idea (i.e. buy a rental property every quarter, or every half year.).

Given that pretty much everything is going right in the economy right now, my investment stance is more conservative. It's not a bad time to buy, but it's definitely not a fire sale. Bigger Pockets is a great resource. Drop me a line if you ever want to chat in more detail. I've gone pretty deep in the whole space, and have a background in investing and finance.
No it's not, it's usually "What is the default gateway on this network segment because I want to plug my laptop in"

I do use ip route a fair bit - if I have a machine connected to two (or more) network segments and want to ensure traffic gets routed back the way it came

However my main criticism for "ip route" is that it's inconsistent and a change route "route"

"route" does reverse dns lookups - e.g "my.server.tld rather than "1.2.3.4", or "default" rather than "0.0.0.0"

"route -n" shows 1.2.3.4

"ip route" doesn't do reverse lookup, however it does say "default" rather than "0.0.0.0".

I am not sure that's necessarily true as long as the FPGA has access to the CPU bus - as it seems to here - as opposed to hanging off a slower peripheral bus - as a lot of other FPGA experiments/cards have done in the past.

Why not force publishers to respect the do not track headers, and clarify what it means to not be tracked? I'm not asking for GDPR to be replaced, and I understand it covers a much wider range of issues. However, I want to say that analytics, advertising and cookies are the ones that most affect users, and are the ones that will be causing the popups everywhere online. I feel this process should be simplified, users shouldn't need to update these settings with every website they visit, and we shouldn't trust publishers to be the ones asking for consent, since they have a high interest in misleading users and finding creative ways to obtain consent, which we can already see happening.

As for your last point, there are standards being implemented related to obtaining and communicating consent (http://advertisingconsent.eu). However, these standards are being set by the ad networks, and as you would expect, they are looking out for their best interest and bottom line.
100% exactly. Cookies are device and moment specific. Whereas a user account can easily save and transport the saved experience/setting anywhere the user wants to access them.
That's not true at all. It's really easy to build an MVP that complies with GDPR.
I'm not aware of all the details, but is the answer to your question "you wouldn't"?
Yes. That still requires at least a cookie notice in any case.

But Mozilla doesn’t have that, and merely has a tiny grey-on-grey 10px tall "Privacy Policy" link in about:addons.
“Nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in our lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope.

Nothing which is true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore we must be saved by faith.

Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore we must be saved by love.

No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as it is from our standpoint. Therefore we must be saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.”

> Only if you approach Philosophy with a lot more rigor and math than what people have historically done. The useful parts of discussing what you call the 'philosophy of science' involves quite a bit of statistics for example.

I disagree. For example, Karl Popper's positions on the philosophy of science became the current mainstream view. His positions are not based on statistics, but on good-old-fashioned qualitative reasoning. I know many scientists who mention Popper by name when discussing such matters. Carl Sagan also helped popularize it in his book "Demon-Haunted World", with his "invisible dragon in the garage" story.

The ability to do statistics at incredible scales (currently known as Machine Learning) raises further questions about what science should be. Questions about such quantitative methods themselves. Rigor does not have to be quantitative in nature -- and let's not forget that the very idea of quantitative science was introduced by Descartes, another famous philosopher.

> What people call useless is cruft dealing with Known Unknowable's which suck up time without getting anywhere.

Depends on where you want to get. Noncommunicable knowledge is a very interesting topic, for those with the inclination. It is ok if you are not curious about such things, but I would argue that it is also ok to be. It deeply intersects mathematical logic (e.g. Gödel) and theoretical computer science (e.g. the halting problem). Will it help us create better gadgets? Probably not? Will it help us better understand the human condition? Probably yes.
No; the cost of supporting GDPR for a new product is essentially zero over good data management in the first place.

Look into every sub field of philosophy and the debates that have gone on about certain topics for thousands of years.
For example, the mind-body problem in epistemology.

To clarify, no the field is not based on social consensus but logic. How do we explain certain things? For example, Kant believed that logic as a field had been "solved" in the sense there needs no more progress in the field as the techniques developed were sufficient to solve logic problems. Until Godel came along and improved on logic in the 20th century. Solving in this sense is a technical definition not the social one.

> Second, I believe the law protects EU citizens regardless of where they are. If you're an EU citizen and register for a service somewhere in the US using VPN or while physically being outside the EU, that service/company will still need to comply.

If the controller or processor is established in the Union (regardless of where they actually process data), then GDPR applies to all processing of personal data regardless of citizenship or location of the data subject.

If the controller or processor is not established in the Union, GDPR applies to processing of personal data if (1) they are offering goods or services to data subjects in the Union, or (2) they are monitoring behavior of such data subjects that takes place in the Union.

See Article 3 for details.

If a US site that is not also established in the Union is trying to block access from the EU, and someone uses a VPN to get around that, the site would probably not be subject to GDPR, as they are probably not offering goods or services to data subjects in the Union. Recital 23 explains that offering goods or services means more than just their site can be reached from in the Union:

" In order to determine whether such a controller or processor is offering goods or services to data subjects who are in the Union, it should be ascertained whether it is apparent that the controller or processor envisages offering services to data subjects in one or more Member States in the Union. 3Whereas the mere accessibility of the controller’s, processor’s or an intermediary’s website in the Union, of an email address or of other contact details, or the use of a language generally used in the third country where the controller is established, is insufficient to ascertain such intention, factors such as the use of a language or a currency generally used in one or more Member States with the possibility of ordering goods and services in that other language, or the mentioning of customers or users who are in the Union, may make it apparent that the controller envisages offering goods or services to data subjects in the Union."
