Interesting. What the prescription here - to simply use http://neverssl.com in order to see if you need to re-authenticate to the captive portal? Is that correct?
States learning from each other is good, but there's no reason to restrict that learning to other states within the same Union (which for cultural and numerical reasons are more homogenous than the total population of all states).

If the United States looks only inwards, however, there's nobody left to learn from in terms of how to run a Union, since there is only one United States, and its powers and responsibilities are (because of federalism) quite different from those of the states.
Goes into the EU budget as is the principle with fines (vs damages). And when you think of it, it would cost a lot to identify and distribute $130M on the millions of customers harmed during many years and their combined losses are likely much higher than $130M.
> If a colleague uses the word 'later' in a product discussion, pretend they said 'never' and speak up if it sounds weird.

I can't decide if this is really clever, or really misguided. Often "later" does mean "never", and sometimes that's ok, sometimes it's bad.

However, you can't do everything at once, and there are plenty of things that you really will do later, because you know that as soon as you implement one feature, a customer will request the logical followup, and you will do it.
Question for any lawyers/legal observers out there:

What exactly did these companies do wrong?

From the article, 'If those retailers did not follow the prices requested by manufacturers, they faced threats or sanctions such as blocking of supplies.'

Does this imply that any retailer in the EU has a legal right to sell goods at any price? If I'm a retailer reselling Asus or Phillips products at cost in order to gain market share, how is that not anti-competitive behavior as well? I don't understand why suppliers cutting off supplies to retailers is anti-competitive in this case.

As anyone who has done business with Amazon through Vendor Central can attest to, Amazon gives you no ability to control the sale price of your goods. Their pricing algorithms automatically adjust the price on most items "Sold and fulfilled by Amazon.com" to be the lowest on the internet.

To me, there is a very troubling extension of the EU's logic here. Quite famously, the high end cookware manufacturer Wusthof tried to prevent Amazon from selling its products, since Amazon was undercutting the value of its brand by offering massive discounts over prices on Wusthof's own site, and its brick and mortar distribution channels.

Does this mean that under this EU ruling, that Amazon could sue Wusthof for attempting to "block" its supply of Wusthof goods?

To take it a step further, Amazon lost money on each early-model Kindle sold. If Amazon attempted to rapidly gain market share in say the chocolate market by reselling Lindt or Godiva chocolate slightly below cost, how does the anti-trust law work out here? Amazon would arguably be engaging in anti-competitive behavior, while the chocolate maker could be fined for telling Amazon it planned to withhold future supplies?

I'm generally a big supporter of consumer rights legislation and enforcement, but this makes me wonder if the EU is going too far. Their ruling seems to have the potential to open up a huge can of worms, and may actually entrench the monopoly power of larger ecommerce sellers.

China's goals for pushing electric vehicles very hard are multi-faceted and strongly aligned with their long-term national strategies:

* Reducing their dependence on oil, one of few strategic resources which they do not possess in sufficient quantity and is subject, in large part, to the inclinations of foreign entities. Advanced electronics is another such resource on which they are also investing heavily to address the dependence.

* Building up technical expertise by accumulating experience in designing and scaling up production of affordable electric vehicles for the masses. (Unlike ICE vehicles, this is an area where no one has a huge lead.) It is clear that EVs are the future. The size of global automative industry is in the trillions and can provide jobs for a huge number of people.

* Improving urban air quality especially in tier 1 cities like Beijing and Shanghai to address the concern of talent who they try to attract (and attract back) from abroad as well as to address people’s demand and to reduce long-term public healthcare expenses.

* Helping with global warming which may affect cities like Shanghai in the future. But this is possibly not a primary goal. As another commenter mentions, other approaches like carbon tax could be more effective.

Governments in several developed nations should at least be concerned that, if they invest insufficiently in EVs, the issue of unemployment and underemployment in traditional manufacturing hubs could become more severe than it is now.

Are trolleys more efficient than buses, pound for pound? Especially after you factor in the capital expenditure needed to build out the trolley lines? I find it hard to believe that a niche technology (trolleys) would be more efficient overall (impact * quantity) than buses, which are everywhere.

Buses are probably an 'easier' problem, but it's much easier to pitch selling self-driving cars to individual consumers rather than to government procurement budgets. Also, I suspect the bus problem space introduces additional issues such as <what to do when some asshole is parked in the bus bay>.

I paid 165€ (incl. VAT) for a last-year - but new - Nokia 6. This isn't a top of the line phone but considering that I keep my phones 3 years or longer (unless they randomly stop working, thanks LG) and use them a lot through the day, this is an absolute bargain. You can get low-end phones for under 100€.

If you want a high-end phone, you have to pay proportionally more. But that's normal and applies to nearly everything else, too.

> you saying that since HTTPS isn’t perfectly secure you’re gonna use the definitely insecure HTTP? What kind of logic is that?

Different sort of security. While I don't agree with OP, the logic here is somewhat sound: he is concerned about the threats against the server. It is reasonable to claim that TLS increases the attack surface, because any any vulns in TLS implementation would be purely additive to the potential vulns in the HTTP server.
I think technical debt is a bit more complex than merely "somebody else's code". I've also written code that increased technical debt. I hated it, but when there's a hard deadline and not enough time, it's unavoidable. Better planning and coordination can prevent a lot of technical debt.

But mostly, it's decisions that seemed to make sense at the time, but now turn out to be wrong. Or simply the accumulation of fix upon fix, feature upon feature, without without doing a redesign based on changing requirements or lessons learned. If you don't work to stop it, entropy will add up and eventually turns the code into an unmaintainable mess.
As the team gets larger AND/OR the product attains its necessary features, "technical debt" becomes more of a problem. I would love to address it at every stage of a product, but it is simply not possible, many times during early development our team is just figuring things out, seeing what works and what doesn't. If we were to analyze future development for each iteration during this stage, it would be a nightmare. I like to trust in my team that they have a good understanding of best practice and choosing between tough work and future work. When the product "feels" at a good stage, say a few bug fixes after release, we spend much more time refactoring.

This one doesn't require you to read between the lines, people usually just tell me that directly :)

Your mileage may vary - in my experience this is another one of things where it's not actually true most of the time. Note how it's a really easy to claim to make, and basically impossible to disprove ("at some unknown time in the future something bad will happen unless you let me have my cake now"). To me that's a warning sign that it might be wrong.

As a leader (or CTO or whatever) your job is to make the call. And if it turns out you were wrong and there is literally nobody who wants to touch the mess, well the buck stops with you and you have to clean it up.

It seems a bit strange to assume that the phishers changed their methods enough to avoid detection at the exact same rate that Googlers moved over to using security keys instead of OTP codes.

As stated, it wasn't intended for an "expert", but a power user. Somebody has to make the decision anyhow of spam versus non-spam in order to make a training set for "learning" based AI. These days you can purchase spam detection systems/services such that training such systems in-house is usually not worth it. They can use rejected messages from thousands of orgs to train their system.

But what I described had additional purposes such as sub-routing to various departments. It was a multi-purpose email categorizer in the early days of spam. Each approach has trade-offs. I'm not sure how you'd apply a "decision tree" using weights in a way that makes sense to a power user. A non-weighted decision tree seems too blunt an instrument. One generally needs multiple "clues" (factors) voting in tandem.

Not exactly. There's no real pre-defined Litmus test for what it means to be a True Scotsman... the whole point is that the definition is made up post-hoc. But there is a meaningful, albeit not absolute, litmus test for what it means to be a Libertarian, and that is adherence to the Non-Aggression Principle. Unfortunately the whole discussion is a bit muddled by the typical "big L" Libertarian vs "little l" libertarian dichotomy, and there is nuance to what it means to adhere to the NAP. But saying there is some nuance to the distinction is not the same thing as a No True Scotsman argument.
That's a location advantage which turned out favourable for you guys. How long have you been operational?
It doesn't have to be your only method.
First: Fuzzy thinking. The attackers have access to _a copy of the password_. The copy they got wasn't necessarily anywhere near the OTP secret.

If I tell my phone number to my bank, my mom and my hairdresser, and you steal it from the hairdresser, this doesn't give you information about my bank account number, even though the bank stored that with the phone number.

Bad guys successfully phish passwords plus OTP codes. We know they do this, hopefully you agree that in this case they don't have the OTP secret. So in this case 1Password worked out as well as having a separate TOTP program.

Bad guys successfully steal form credentials out of browsers using various JS / DOM / etcetera flaws. Again, they get the OTP code but don't get the OTP secret regardless of whether you use 1Password

Bad guys also install keyboard monitors/ logs/ etcetera. In some cases they could just as easily steal your 1Password vault, but in other cases (depending on how they do it) that isn't an option. I believe it's "very unlikely" in reality that they'll get your 1Password vault unless it's a targeted attack.

A passive TLS tap also gives the bad guys the password plus OTP code but not the OTP secret. Unlike the former three examples this is going to be very environment specific. Your work may insist on having a passive TLS tap, and some banks definitely do (this is why they fought so hard to delay or prevent TLS 1.3) but obviously your home systems shouldn't allow such shenanigans. Nevertheless, while the passive tap can't be used to MITM your session it can steal any credentials you enter, again this doesn't include the OTP secret.

Second: A ratchet enables us to recover from a situation where bad guys have our secret, forcing the bad guy to either repeat their attack to get a new secret or show their hand. TOTP lets us do this when bad guys get one TOTP code but not the underlying TOTP secret.
