Yeah, but now you're changing the argument from selling data for profit to simply complying with the law.

If Google complying with the law is something someone feels at-risk for, then I understand not choosing to use them. But that's really a lesson that goes for any centralized service.
The App Store app isn't particularly great, either. There are many UI paradigms it ends up breaking, and of course, it still goes for that sidebar/main window layout that all the Marzipan apps use.

I didn’t load up on Tesla shares when Elon tweeted about Ambien, self driving advancements, or software updates coming any day now, so why would I take him seriously about going private?

The route for going private was to stop trading the shares, meaning I would never make good on that profit. Because ceasing trading is what going private means: I no longer hold stock at $420/share, I hold stock in Tesla which I might be able to sell to someone some day for some as yet unspecified amount.
The legend of the frog being boiled slowly is actually completely false (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_frog). The frog will simply jump out when it notices that it gets too hot. Likewise, it's pretty easy to see the distinction between Google using information to help people vs. using information for profit.

Because... Google's business model. Your ability to see your purchase history on a Google page is neat, but it seems a safe bet that the real reason they want your purchase history is because their profile about you as a set of eyeballs becomes more valuable allowing them to charge higher rates on ads. Notice that they only claimed to have stopped scraping gmail for ad targeting purposes, not that they stopped scraping period.

I haven't claimed that Google sells your data for a profit. Other centralized services carry risks as well, but some of them have profit models that are focused on something other than scooping up every bit of data possible, with some even having profit models specifically focused on the opposite.
Your agreement with Google allows them to use your data on your behalf. The feature you suggested uses your data to benefit other people, or other people’s data to benefit you. Even when aggregated that violates the agreement.

I was at Sears a few times recently since my daughter was working there as her first job. Her job was to keep the clothing nice but the problem was the hangers didn't have any divets on them to keep the clothes from sliding off, so her main job was to put everything back on the hangers as they fell off. She couldn't keep up. Often all of the employees would have to stay late to put the clothes back on the hangers. Also another thing I noticed is that checking out took 20 minutes because the process was really slow. I wanted to buy things but after the first couple of times waiting in line I just gave up the idea of buying anything. It is pretty obvious the CEO has never visited any of the stores.

For every single liquid load, there are likely 50 non-liquid loads that can be better if automated. Perhaps humans only did the "dangerous" loads such as gasoline, or barrels of oil, etc? I think this isn't so black and white, but really is more of a shade of grey. Some things humans can do well autonomous trucks will do poorly. Some things humans do very poorly autonomous trucks will do very well. One of the other things is simple economics. There will likely never be autonomous truck unions picketing for shorter hours or higher pay. Note that I've got nothing against truckers unions, but think the sheer economics of the issue to carriers will inevitably force the issue eventually. The first carrier to seriously use autonomous trucking will likely be capable of delivering products to customers for cheaper, creating an imbalance in the industry. Every other company will be forced to compete, with a downward race on wages.

The computer security industry for SMBs is like 95% theater and 5% actual practice.

Conducting that test produced something tangible for whoever made the purchasing decision: It clearly illustrated a need for the services rendered, did it in a way that offered job security to management by giving them license to assert the position over their subordinates, and established a metric by which to evaluate the security company's performance which can be easily, repeatably, and predictably improved over time.

It also checked a lot of boxes that will be useful in court if they ever need to prove that they weren't negligent on privacy and security, which is a form of insurance that has real measurable value when it comes to legal claims.

Caveat: you'll need to hire a lot more IT people because everyone in the company will be lined up out the door with complaints. "This computer doesn't work with my keyboard, I need a new one." "My mouse isn't working." "This computer won't read my flash drive and I have to get this file to accounting by 10:00!" "This computer isn't working with my pen tablet and the deadline for getting these graphics done is tomorrow!"

So you'll have to replace all of your intentionally-broken computers with good ones, which will cost a fortune on top of all the employees' lost work time and no one will want to buy the broken computers from you so you'll have to pay to have them scrapped.

The full blown system creates what I call "metaprofiles" merging profiles across various domains. Basically, it can identify people based on conversation (regardless of username or domain). One thing I do, is create these "metaprofiles" and will return the first linked account.

Apparently, I forgot to add a "data source" as an input to the function, thus you may get some of the cross profiles.
Nice post, I think it can be more difficult for less-experienced (but talented) people to find jobs than it should be. However in some ways the FAANG companies are better in this regard since they hire many people out of college and strive to have an objective hiring process that can be passed by less experienced people.

No. Google makes money off connecting ads to profiles.

The vast majority of ads you see are not on search result pages. They’re on arbitrary non-google related pages, so to make that work google has basically moved to a “track everything this person does online so we can build and sell a profile of them”.

Your argument about data privacy is a nonsense - what matters is data security - Their business depends on them being able to read the information they have accumulated and then indirectly selling it. That is fundamentally opposed to data privacy - which would mean only you could read that information.

You say apple doesn’t have the same “privacy” requirements, but what you mean is the Apple isn’t dependent on their users data for income. Even then Apple encrypts ever increasing amounts of user data so that even if they are compromised the data isn’t useful to anyone.

If google did care about privacy then when your email came in they would filter spam, encrypt, and then discard the plaintext. That’s the best you can do because email security is laughable by design. They’d still have huge amounts of information, but at the very least they wouldn’t be able to retroactively crawl your mail box.
On the first point, I don't have either of those books, but IMO the Wikipedia complaints aren't compelling.

On the second point, many SQL databases offer indexing [1] (as you said), clustering [2] (arranging a table according an index), and partitioning [3].

I think database designers are very conscious of the difference between the logical relational model and the implementation details. For example, this [4] conversation on the PostgreSQL mailing list about unique indexes vs. unique constraints. I also think that in practice there just aren't many other ways to abstract the logical model from the physical storage that gives you something substantial.

IMO, this is one of the successes of the relational model: the logical model and the physical implementations don't need to differ for you to have a really good situation all around.

Just one perspective: When it comes to scraping data and storing in single entity (Google servers), it's more about powering the ecosystem than a single client or the UI.

Google doesn't just live in a single client. As a user (by giving up my privacyto Google), I can ask my Google home how my day is while getting ready for work.
I can see the status of my flight tomorrow in my Google app (or Google home screen in Android) without a single search - just because it parsed my email with itinerary. Same way, I can see status for my FedEx package right there just because they violeted my privacy and scraped when I purchased something.

Imagine how much friction it'd require to setup such devices if everything was processed on client side or required explicit opt-in before accessing the info.

Of course as a side effect, I get advertisements of standing desk even a month after buying one, but probably the alternative would be to pay for all these AI and assist?

Again, just a user's perspective.
If third parties have access your mail db, it's more like a "decentralized mail host" ;)

Umm, based on the content of the article, no, Facebook did NOT advertiser access to your shadow contact information.

Advertisers can specifically say that they want to advertise to a phone number THAT THEY ALREADY HAVE, (READ: THE ADVERTISER ALREADY KNOW WHO YOU ARE). And Facebook will display that ads to the Facebook account that use that phone number in their shadow contact info.

At no point does advertiser have access to which Facebook account that is.
I am currently reading Moondust: In Search of the Men Who Fell to Earth, by Andrew Smith. Around 2002, he decided to track down all the people who walked on the moon and are still living, and ask the basic question, "What do you do after you've walked on the moon?"

It's a fascinating mix of personal stories, science, and a sense of what it was like for people from all parts of society to experience the moon frenzy of the late 60s/ early 70s.

"... your markup has no semantics. you can't just look at it and know what things are, by their names."

Huh? I think you've got it exactly backwards. My React components all have semantic names. In contrast, you're apparently using raw HTML "div" elements and relying solely on your style classes' names for semantics. You can certainly do that (with or without functional css) but it's orthogonal to the things that make Tailwind and functional css great, and your complaint makes me wonder about your setup; it's almost as if you're hand-writing and maintaining static HTML identical to what you see with "view source". Are we both talking about styling web applications?
