You're thinking of consumer SSO. There's also enterprise SSO. Per-tab cookie isolation would break pretty much every bigcorp's Intranet, because they're composed of a bunch of different services that all rely on a centralized IAM provider.

(Mind you, Google themselves are working to move enterprises away from this model, with their https://cloud.google.com/beyondcorp/ effort avoiding the "Intranet as a bunch of services on separate internal domains" model, in favor of a "Intranet as a bunch of services all living under smart proxies that make them look like one domain and handle IAM for you" model. But enterprises would need to move first, before complete tab isolation could be workable for them.)

There's also even-more-enterprise SSO, i.e. SAML and its "using your bank as an SSO provider to prove your identity to government services" use-cases. This actually isn't SSO at all—there are more identity providers than there are services. The point here is to federate proofs-of-identity by allowing many different (whitelisted) agencies to vouch for your identity, so that the government doesn't need to issue you some centralized proof-of-identity. This would also break under complete tab isolation, and I don't think there's any good replacement in this case.
I dunno; there are vastly more people doing "science" now than in 1850, and a hell of a lot fewer technological changes, improvements and so on. I look at the people claiming the mantle now (used to be one of them!) as about as credible as if some MBA showed up and took credit for the Hoover dam.
It really should, because the article states that US automakers are going to concentrate on electric vehicles.
I figure car companies have a better idea about styles are popular than the rest of us. If EV cars tend to look different, there's probably a reason.
With Google Voice + Hangouts you can also answer phone calls from a desktop computer/laptop very easily. I'll miss that.
The cars probably lose money by themselves, only being profitable when looking at the big picture. (due to CAFE and similar) They are costly to make and typical car buyers are uninterested.

The cars exist because various governments have made electric/hybrid/whatever quotas that need to be met. The minimum required number will be sold. In some jurisdictions that number is zero. Each one of these cars is sold at a loss, until you consider that the manufacturer is able to avoid fines or being entirely banned from selling vehicles.
I think the benchmark they are suggesting is: Is their insecurity resulting in their making decisions that affect their ability to have the fundamentals (roof over head, food on plate, etc)? And if those fears come true, will it materially affect them to the point where they could lose that roof?

For the former: If their fear/insecurity is causing them to pay more than they could/should afford in bunkers, security guards, etc, then I would say according to the article: "Yes".

But that's true for almost no one in the demographic you're highlighting.

For the latter: If immigration (legal/illegal) keeps continuing, or other demographics gain more voting power, will they likely lose that $1M house? I don't think so.

True, but that reduces the problem to "not possible for everyone". If you work remotely, and have a printer next to your computer, it's entirely doable. My coworker set up his printer at his parents' house, and built a system for remote control & monitoring, including a camera pointed at the print bed. He does remote prints this way.
This is a tough subject because it’s an emotional one, and lots of people do make knee jerk reactions. I know plenty of people who feel that they know the causes or consequences or solutions, but yet few of them seem to take a long, deep analysis.

For example, the opinion that successful people make decisions X, Y, and Z and unsuccessful people don’t is a very attractive intuition. Yet, it’s very difficult to support without broad longitudinal data. And, even then, how do you control for the many other factors, especially ones that change over time?

So, consider your observation that poor people are worse and rich people better (at making decisions). How do you know if there’s survivorship bias at work? That is, without taking a population at birth and requiring them to make ‘the good decisions’ throughout their lives, how do you actually know?

I don't think you need to reach for sexism as an explanation there. Name changes are sufficiently rare that building the flows to support it will usually only become an issue in mature production software where accurate names are extremely important, and where preserving long term records is equally important. That's not most systems. And that's before you get into cases where names are primary keys like usernames.

The business case for supporting such changes can be pretty weak relative to other features.

Just to put scale into perspective, since sometimes it helps to better visualize, only 14 countries (http://worldpopulationreview.com/) have a population more than 100M.

Also, 100M is almost 1/3rd the population of U.S., more than the entire population of Vietnam, almost the same at the entire population of Egypt, roughly 1/2 the population of Pakistan ...

Google Talk was better. I used that for business purposes, but once they migrated everyone to hangouts the quality -- latency, sound, etc, dropped a lot, at least as experienced by me.

The downside is that browsing the web on a service like that sucks ass. Tor trades off some security for a basic level of user experience.

Sadly, modern web design makes stuff like WWWoffle less useful than it used to be. Plus it's difficult to set up fully anonymous services on the far side of the link, I mean you're using Tor for a reason, and leaving breadcrumbs on the far side of the network is risky.

That reminds me, I participated in a C++ contest some number of years ago in which I came out one of the prize winners. They gave me a C++ book. I opened it maybe once or twice because I already knew much of what it said.
A phone of that cost is a luxury item. Now I'm in the category of people who can afford that and I want to make sure I'm not just living in a bubble when I dismiss what you said, so I opened up a tab and typed in "cheap phone" to google. The first result is a $20 phone from best buy. It appears to do calls, take pictures and video, do web browsing and have some library of available apps. So I don't think "People cannot buy a phone outright" is a very helpful way to frame it. Rather say that "people cannot buy a top of the line luxury brand-name phone outright". Which doesn't sound as bad, right?

There's a broad range that meet lots of different needs. I have a '17 Kia Soul Exclaim. 1.6L turbo 5-door crossover. I can haul 4 adults comfortably and the trunk has more space than I usually use for groceries/gear. It does lack the trailer hitch and 4WD of the Wrangler I traded for it, but $100 fixes the hitch and I don't haul enough or go off-roading to need 4WD. I get 30mpg highway and that little turbo engine can really zip around. It's very fun to drive.
I can wholeheartedly believe to state of affairs as a nature of economics. Nobody bothers to quantify the risk of corporate espionage
I have the perception that trucks are better for rough driving (dirt, potentially muddy roads.) I have no idea if this perception matches reality, and would be curious to hear if it's true. I'm always a little jealous when I see a truck tearing up a dirt road when I'm driving forest roads on the way to go hiking.

A lot of people in the country live off dirt roads or have dirt driveways that might get muddy in the rain or when snow is melting, so I imagine that could be a factor too.
I would much rather be low to the ground on the highway than up high. It all comes down to personal preference.

Moving a cup of scaldingly hot coffee around while driving is not very sensible.
What are examples the term "scientist" being used in an inappropriate way? To me, a scientist is someone who is educated in the scientific method and experience using it to perform experiments. It's mostly applied to people for whom it's their profession but you can be an amateur scientist.

Yes, day to day there's a certain level of trust put in what scientists say based on their research, everyone can't know everything, but it's not blind faith. With priests, ultimately there's an expectation of belief without evidence.
They remember a bad winter or big storm that hit the town where they grew up. That's not in any way relevant to global climate.
NYC has tons of people who are living in rent regulated housing, but ignoring that, the average price is still shifted upwards by tons of apartments in manhattan that cost far more than the median. So assuming everyone is paying market rates, it's still not difficult to find an apartment that costs less than 2000/month, just look at zillow.

Additionally, childcare costs fall dramatically once your child is 3/4 years old as NYC has universal pre K with later cutoffs than other parts of the country. There would also be additional tax savings if you were married.

Add on the fact that you likely have far lower transportation costs than households in other parts of the country, and it makes more sense. Couples with a child who make 120k a year in NYC would not be precariat like members of the working class, they'd be able to save money and likely buy a home someday.

Just because they might be better off somewhere else in the country, doesn't mean they're not middle class. The middle class still struggles with more limited options around finances, what I will say is that the amount you need to earn to be in the upper class in NYC is far higher than in other cities.
A new tab should be able to go "back" to its parent. Kind of weird that no browser has implemented this yet.
For all the comments I see about China stealing IP, just remember, IP can be stolen anywhere, even in America.

We have a couple production plants in China. I haven't seen any concrete evidence that the employees are stealing IP. And if they are, they do a poor job of reproducing it because they're almost never as good as the real thing.

Not to say it doesn't happen, but I just find it humorous that a lot of buzz is around China precisely because most manufacturing is from there and not other nations. There's also a lot of claims in reports, but no hard proof.

There's also no examination of the victims practices or its done very poorly. Not practicing good IP protection like obfuscation in your code, encryption, anti-tamper mechanisms which, from my experience, many American companies don't practice, is just asking for trouble. They may be doing this, but its never mentioned in news articles.

Of course, given enough time and resources, most things can be cracked. However, that's no excuse to make it easy.
I doubt this, as hangouts is integrated deeply into google fi, such that all sms messages between google fi users just go thru hangouts and hangouts is also used to send out going texts.

I think there’s nothing inherently wrong with spreading out payments for durable goods over the lifespan of the device, only if it can be done at a reason APY.

The problem with pay-as-you-go is the interest rates, penalties, fees, etc.

When AT&T or Apple sells me a phone with a monthly payment, I take it because it’s literally the price divided by 24 payments. Zero percent interest. No brainer.

Better debt servicing and better risk assessment and higher trust in buyers would bring down default rates and decrease APY making these programs reasonable and proper. At the extortionate rates necessary due to the extreme default rates and difficulty in collecting payments, they are terrible.

How do you suggest enabling these use-cases for users that want them, on top of a browser that isolates tabs by default, without requiring any technical aptitude of the user to understand what a "cookie" is (which would normally suggest "have a UX flow for it") but while preventing arbitrary websites from triggering such a flow and thereby tricking these non-technical users into enabling the site to track them?

It's not like the problem is impossible; nobody is saying that. My point is that the solution is non-obvious to the point that nobody has solved it yet, despite likely man-years being put into trying. Firefox Containers are the best UX we've come up with so far to kinda-sorta solve the problem. Do you have any better idea?
K8s is all about encapsulating devops practices into code, so it's kind of philosophically totally opposite to learning all the details of virtual networking and configuring it from scratch.

> How does a string of short term relationships show loyalty?

Age says nothing about what prior relationships someone has had, other than that they've had more time to have them.

It translates to loyalty (albeit weakly) in that a woman who is older has better self awareness and knows what she wants in a relationship, where a younger woman might still be figuring that out (and realize only later on that her relationship isn't what she wanted)

>I’ve known plenty of early 20s women who will drop their careers to follow their boyfriend overseas and very few in their 30s who will.

So it's more valuable to have a woman who isn't independent? Who doesn't have her own life or hobbies and gets fulfillment solely through her partner?

I'm a well off software developer. I've been using a $50 Nokia Lumia 520 for the past 3 years or so. When this one dies I'll likely "splurge" and buy a Nokia 2 ($100). That our I'll buy a Blu phone ($50).

I would consider my neighbors poor. They have state-subsidized rent, for example. They use food stamps. They also smoke a pack a day each. All they need to do to buy a new phone is not smoke for 5 days. Not that it matters, they all have iPhones inexplicably. It's just a viscous self-feeding cycle and I don't know how to help them break out of it.

It can, but it's not in many cases. I also know lots of conservatives who are not the strawman racists people on the left like to attack. They really only care that people don't vote in left-wing people.

Keep in mind that suppressing the Democrat vote will dis-proportionally affect black people (as well as poor people, etc), but that doesn't mean the people trying to do it are prejudiced against black people. They are just prejudiced against Democrats.

I think I was unclear — I meant people who are relatively poor, but wealthier in absolute terms being extorted by the relatively extremely wealthy until they’re also poor in absolute terms.
Indeed, I suspect it has to do with manufacturer's wanting control over prices and supply. E.g. a manufacturer thinks they can charge a higher base price in China because they are a luxury foreign brand.
"If you own a BMW/Audi/Benz, you're not wealthy and you're just signalling to other non-wealthy individuals."

Err, the median income of a 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-class buyer was nearly $200,000 [1]. That qualifies as pretty high income. The numbers are similar for BMW and Audi.

You can argue that they aren't "wealthy" (as this isn't a measure of net worth), but people with high incomes are more likely to be wealthy than people without. Someone making $200K a year certainly isn't the stereotypical person "faking being rich" you portray them as here.

"Look terrible and are way cheaper": well, "look terrible" is all about personal taste. If it doesn't float your boat, then fine, but it apparently floats enough boats that the companies sell a lot of them.

"Way cheaper" is almost objectively false. Most reviewers like the cabins of the luxury brands far more than they like the cabins of the non luxury. You may think they aren't worth the extra dollars, but when someone is wealthy, the marginal value of those extra dollars is lower.
