Too much attention seeking in this headline. We knew from day one that there would be vulns. It doesn't matter how many people use them. Good that some have been found now. Let's support them by public reporting in seriously investigating the flaws they know about.

Oh, gosh. What a way to make sure this doesn't succeed.

You don't announce ahead of time you are doing something like this. You livestream it for maximum gotcha and shock value, make a tape of it and then have that go viral after you pulled off this wizardry.

This is like announcing you plan to break into Fort Knox on X date. Hello?!

I’m just commenting on the “bad people” part, but at 40 years old I’ve seen enough people remain completely stuck in their dysfunctional patterns to have very little faith in rehabilitation.
This is true, but I think it's understandable that many employers will see a criminal conviction as a signal and make decisions accordingly.

Is it a lazy approach to hiring? Yes. So is hiring anyone with an MIT degree just because of their credential.

If the signal is imperfect and there are efficient ways to reveal whether the signal is valid or not then some market participant would likely figure out how to exploit that right?
>Real question: Is there some social etiquette rule that says describing to a news audience as "unknown" is rude? Honestly, I've never heard of that.

You and the other person calling it a compliment are either the same person, or you're both social robots who think referring to human beings as Unknowns is a nice way to treat a person.

Gene drive is terrifying. Has anyone done any research on a gene drive “antidote” so we can fix it if we screw something up? A gene that would remove the gene drive?
The reason I suggested it as a possibility is that I see UX these patterns in other Apple products.

For example, the iOS Camera app hides away options for the frame rate and resolution of video under several menus. This option is much more accessible in actual cameras. In Apple's case, it's put out of easy reach to prevent the user from obsessing over which resolution to capture a moment, and to provide a uniform appearance to all captured content.

Options are hidden away to reinforce a set-it-and-forget mentality.
I've found it's generally worthwhile to read the original literature; especially so when it was all worked out, but the technology didn't support doing it properly and people have persisted with approximations and fudges needlessly (like some areas of science). The standard of writing may be better in the '60s and '70s literature than in recent stuff anyway.

>Just use his name in the headline, how hard is that?!

Because "unknown" in the title is more descriptive of the general public's (lack of) awareness of the person's identity. (I assume Bloomberg's audience is mostly North America.)

It's very common to use "unknown" in the title and the full name in the body of the the article which Bloomberg has done here. The article's first sentence has his full name: Zhang Yiming. To me, this appears respectful and not insulting.

>You and the other guy calling it a compliment are either the same person, or you're both social robots

I think throwing a veiled insult at me is ironic.
> It's astounding that many people still aren't self-aware enough to realize this and take appropriate action when they gain a lot of wealth.

Who says they're not self-aware?

The article explicitly mentions it's unsafe to take the large amounts of cash traveling, which it notes "are usually a day’s trek away". It's not uncommon for developing-world banks to be untrustworthy, as well.

Spending it instead of having it stolen or being murdered for it might be the right approach here.

Its not necessarily musical.ly but its Chinese counterpart, Douyin. Douyin is absolutely massive in China, think Snapchat/Instagram/Vine but much more popular.

They run ads between the short videos, I would imagine that ad space is very valuable to some Chinese companies. I've never used Musical.ly however I imagine its similar just rebranded for an American market.

Our goal for the experience is the Apple Pay OCR experience, but it's embeddable directly in apps (so users don't have to already have it set up, if they prefer to use cards, or navigate to apple pay and come back). I agree this would be for the users not using Apple Pay.

Long term, I agree the trend is moving toward apple pay and digitized payments, but I found lots of people still like / prefer credit cards (so trend is that direction, but slope isn't super high and it'll take a while). I'm also excited about the fraud benefit of this kind of solution for bigger orgs that deal with fraud.

Possibly amusing aside: Logica's RAPPORT, one of the earliest RDBs, was written in Fortran and was queried (or could be) via pre-processed Fortran. I don't know whether that was more faithful to the model than SQL.

Jaffer's Scheme RDB (https://people.csail.mit.edu/jaffer/slib/Relational-Database...) aimed to implement the model, possibly uniquely so at the time, he thought.

Mosquitoes are already under constant attack, and no wishing can change that. To attack mosquitoes we use chemicals that have widespread effects on other animals, and humans regularly destroy entire ecosystems to remove mosquito environments. The ecological damage of our war on mosquitoes is huge and as old as civil engineering. We can't stop the war, but we could win the war.

But then ... we don't really do a great job at even attempting to rehabilitate anyone. When we stick a non-violent offender in a prison, it's "Not A Good Time™️" for them. They become institutionalized, they make criminal connections, they join gangs ... they do these things in order to survive; for protection not only from other violent inmates, but also from abuse by corrections officers.

Let's not lose faith in rehabilitation before we've actually tried rehabilitation.

I agree completely. Elon Musk is a remarkable person, but he's still human. He's ignoring the science around performance, mental health, and the need for rest at his own peril.

Edit: It's also an alarming sign that Elon Musk has not been able to solve this problem by finding people whose judgement he trusts to take on some of his responsibilities. Even Steve Jobs, someone who had a reportedly huge ego, was able to build a team he could entrust his legacy to.
That strategy "worked" for the president when he called Omarosa a "Dog"

Problem with the Tories not blinking is that they don't have a majority in parliament. They're currently being propped up (they have a confidence and supply arrangement) by the DUP who are very much against a sea border and would likely vote against a deal that had a sea border and doing so could bring down the government.

Note that all states now allow same sex marriage
The last three paragraphs kind of throw cold water on the hopeful implications. Marriages are more stable because the working class is increasingly living in unstable, informal relationships.
Well, the ability to make only Northern Ireland leave the EU was chuckle-inducing, so I'd probably play with things that way :P
From TFA:

the gene drive isn't ready for use in the field. Doublesex is so central to insect sex determination that every species we have looked at has a version, and the ones in closely related species are similar enough that the gene-drive construct could potentially hop species. While targeting other mosquitos might not be a terrible thing, we probably want to have a clear idea of potential issues before releasing anything like this into the wild.
I truly hope the advertising driven tech industry dies and a general paid service model takes it place. The long term affect adverts have on humans cannot be positive.
There’s another mechanism which is too much optimism. Everyone is susceptible, not just the folks at the top.

That's a losing move too.

The Leave voters would all label you 'undemocratic'. That sentiment imposes a definite cost on you as well.

Unfortunately, at this point there really are no "winning" moves. Probably just a few moves that might be less bad than other moves.
If I'm not mistaking, the rub is almost a footnote at the very end of the article:

No you don't.

Because 1) on a personal level you won't be able to pay to avail yourself of the court system, and 2) on a social level the cost of doing fraud screening at the payment processing level is trivial in comparison to the expense associated with fraud litigation.

That wasn't a veiled insult, nor was it ironic, which is funny.
TL;DR: Can't get divorced if you never get married
One thing to remember is you have at least two other ways of storing values. Each worker has global memory which persists between invocations (local, atomic), and you have access to the Cache API (per-data center, ephemeral).

By combining those with KV to do global coordination on a more course time scale, I think you could.
Oh dear.

'Could be' and 'are' are two different things.

Where's your actual evidence they are illegal? You don't have any.

What reason do you have to assume this procedure is illegal? Other than some kind of irrelevant association with the surveillance program of a different part of the government proving to be illegal.

I'll gladly accept the procedure is illegal provided with proof it is, so... over to you.
As a well educated, highly paid remaincuck (seriously, are you 12?), maybe I can enlighten you.

Something like 40% of our trade is with the EU. Having an open trading environment, especially for the things we do really, really well, is what helps keep the UK as one of the richest countries in the world.

The majority of the UK runs at a loss. We have a significant number of high earners who come from abroad, many (most?) from the EU who contribute significantly to our tax base and productivity.

The majority of the laws we've enacted, because the EU required us to, would have been enacted anyway. We're unlikely to change most of them materially post-Brexit. There are important exceptions, of course. We'll probably be a lot less nice to our rural community post-Brexit, for example, as they've received a lot of funding on the coattails of French farming unions courtesy of the CAP.

The one big exception is with free movement of people. This was a big driver of Brexit and, although it's had a small, negative economic effect; it's had a huge negative political effect. But almost entirely of the "they're taking our jobs" variety. Something that doesn't really impact high earners (other than tradesmen are now cheaper and better).

Now, I don't happen to think that Brexit will be a disaster. I just think it was stupid. It's dumping our economy back a decade and it'll take a decade to get back to where we are now. Also, as it's likely to royally stuff up our financial services and biopharmacy industries, we might end up with a more balanced economy by accident.

I also happen to believe that, long term, the UK being out of the EU is probably the right thing to do. We've been a brake on what they've wanted to do for a generation. We're just not culturally aligned. But Brexit was a bad idea, badly executed.

hope that helps.
Or a "Greater Scotland":
