Unfortunately, it's not that clear. Per Recital 23, the service must intend to have EU users, and merely being accessible in the EU is not enough to ascertain that. It must have some signs, such as accepting European currency or mentioning advantages to European users. Thankfully most sites clearly want to accept money from all currencies, but if this corp didn't charge, it might be difficult to show that they envisaged having EU users.
I've had S3, S5, S6, S7, S7 Edge, and S9+ on T-Mobile, and only the S6 had Facebook as unremovable bloatware. Disable and Force Stop is done every reboot.
Admittedly it's a very small sample size, but fwiw history directly contradicts this assertion.

Mondragon Cooperatives, possibly the largest worker owned and directed enterprise today. Not perfect but it's a good case study to demonstrate that employees being in control results into better quality products and less lay-off (as seen during regular capitalist recessions).
See my sibling comment. Merely being accessible is in fact not enough to be considered as providing services in the EU.
The target is more the creatives pro, than the developers. IT folks are not the only one kind of pro out there.

Many artists praise the Apple pencil and we musn’t Forget that creative industry is probably what kept Apple afloat during it’s dark age of the 1990’s so I’d say fair enought!

I have literally no use of an Apple Watch or an iPad. But does it bother me than Apple sell them and make big margin on them? Why on earth?
Funnily enough, the reason I had to pool money in the first place (rather than just asking for the book as a bday or xmas present) is because my church-going Dad bought into the "Dungeons and Dragons leads to devil worship" myth! He knows better now, but even in the 2000s many people had some very odd opinions of people who played RPGs. I do agree though that video games and big budget fantasy movies have brought the whole genre closer into the mainstream though.
Ok, but such quick MVP should have some secret sauce - ideally introduce a complexity with a special dependency, otherwise nothing stops a potential lead to take the idea and implement it with someone else.
> Now we’re in literally the opposite scenario, devices ridiculously overpowered that we wish we could figure out something to do with.

Wrong. We know exactly what we want to do with these devices.

However, Apple won't allow us to do those things.

A friend of mine bought an iPad Pro before going on vacation so that he wouldn't need to bring his laptop.

He wanted to upload/download his photos from his camera, share them to other people, do some light photo editing, hunt down tourist sites, book train tickets, etc.

He had nothing but problems. My 2015 Macbook Pro? No issues at all.

The iPad Pro went back and now he's back on his laptop.
The worst part about comments is that they just add a cognitive load of reading and parsing extra lines of text.

What if the underlying logic changes? Do I need to update the original witty comment as well?

How do I know if the comment is still relevant? No compiler nor tests will tell me that and now I'm left with a task of parsing a language with much more degrees of freedom (English), without any support from the IDE. It becomes even harder in international teams.

>Holy shit people. Pick up a damn book and read. How you communicate will influence how you write code.

This is a problem when most information consumed are now either in Video ( TV / YouTube, etc ), Pictures ( IG with short or no description ), and Short form of writing ( Blog Post / Internet Comments ), even worst is when most of these are for Entertainment. And there is a trend of basic literacy falling even those coming out of College ( Or Universities ).

Not quite sure how we could fix this. People aren't reading books any more. Steve Jobs once said we need Editorial more so than ever, and not fallen into a nations of bloggers, and that was nearly 9 years ago.

> if we treat egg layers nice, and if we treat cows nice can't we still have eggs and milk for a while?

Not (really) trying to ruin your life here, but this idea was crushed for me when I realised that only female chickens can lay eggs, and that roosters end up in the shredder as soon as their sex is identified. I guess that's still less suffering than those that are raised for slaughter in industrial farming, but it's still not great...
If salaries remain in the fiat currency, I suppose pensions and other government payments would, too, right? In that case, it seems to me that the fiat currency remains the primary measure of value, standard for deferred payment and probably medium of exchange, right?

If it does, then Bitcoin would remain an optional part of the economy. As long as Bitcoins are not required in order to make transactions, and as long as deferred payments are not made in Bitcoin, it lacks protection against sudden surges in volatility (that may ultimately take the prize to absolute 0).

But let's assume for the sake of argument that somehow Bitcoins can reach a steady state of increasing in purchasing power by 2% per year or more.

The first thing that would happen, would be that government bonds would have to do the same, or none would buy them. This would have an immediate effect on the US economy, since the US is not likely to be able to pay such a high real interest rate while maintaining the current deficit.

Since you tend to argue in favor of the interests of savers, I suppose you are willing to force the government to cut expenses or increase taxes to make up for the difference, and let's assume that BC are not made illegal for this reason. (It would probably trigger a 1929 style depression, but that could pass.)

Next is the problem of decreased consumption. While I agree that decreasing consumption is a virtue for most individuals, the problem when aggregate demand goes away, is that fewer people are required to work to create the goods that people consume. As people earn less money from salaries, this further reduces the ability to consume (demand) and drives deflation even further. This leads to a downward spiral that can ultimately end in famine. People can only be "required" to live if they actually can buy food. Also, this will come on top of the reduced public spending described in the previous paragraph.

Even middle class people with some savings may be affected by this, by being unable to find work. Even if the savings increase in value somewhat, most people only have enough for a limited time without income.

Taxes will plummet due to reduced employment, and the government, now without the ability to run at a deficit, will not be able to pay for welfare programs. Food stamps may not be available.

Meanwhile, the purchasing power of the super rich will be safe, as well as possibly the small group of people that is needed to produce the goods that the super rich consume.

Until the revolution comes.

Yes, consolidations on the market are a thing with an additional side effect - as owning a property is professonalized it’s even more difficult and expensive for an individual to own.

> I also have difficulty seeing the first benefit you list as being a benefit. I don't have a problem with people pursuing degrees in fields that aren't big money makers, but I also don't know that the government should be in the business of incentivising people to study in these fields.

It's actually one of the best things about the system. Maybe you want to be a social worker who will never earn much but will make a meaningful difference in peoples lives, or a lawyer that only works for non-profits, or a doctor that only works for doctors without borders, or any one of ten thousand other examples where a person can make an extremely valuable contribution to society, but doesn't earn a ton of money.

You made the mistake of assuming that only people earning a ton of money make valuable contributions to a society.

Why does everyone write this stuff with such absolutism? There’s no purpose to these devices? I have 2 iPad Pros, one I use every day to consume content like twitter, hacker news, and YouTube. The other I use approximately weekly to play and record music (connected to a digital piano).

Are there even reports that iPad pros aren’t selling well? I think they are the best computers ever made.
I think most of the larger forum software providers have implemented functions to comply with GDPR (i.e. delete, restrict and extract user data).

Concerning backups: If you have a short turnaround time (e.g. 14 days) it shouldn’t be a problem, the legislation acknowledges the fact that deleting data and ensuring data integrity (also in accordance with GDPR) are sometimes mutually exclusive from a practical point of view. You need to make sure that deletion requests also get honored when restoring from backup though, so ideally you want to store the requests in a third system and check them when you restore backups.

Concerning the democratic aspect of participating in the online world I think GDPR actually helps, as before it was not possible to reliably get your own data deleted, rectified or transferred, which is not very democratic either IMHO.

A study by Lancet - briefly, that hundreds of thousands of 'excess deaths' were caused by sanctions.

It's not something our intellectual culture is particularly comfortable with - drawing lines between death, and the policies that cause death, perhaps because we don't take statistics as seriously as we do causal stories.

How long can you be on HELP? For as long as you are a student? In my country, we have a similar system but you can only be on loan for _exactly_ as long as a medical doctor degree is which is 6 years. Say for instance you study an engineering degree (5 years), that leaves you with one more year that you can take a student loan which is rarely enough to reskill.

Responding to myself: Of course, this could have been the intention all along. It has long been recognized that big business loves difficult to conform with regulations (regardless of their protestations otherwise) because it is hard for smaller competitors to breach the effective moat that heavy/complex regulations provide incumbents.
If it's every non-Chinese company doing business in China seeing slowed Chinese growth (or even reduced Chinese demand), then it's pretty clear that China's market is the problem and not Apple.

In this case, it's not just Apple and Samsung. It's a great many other industries, especially luxury goods, that have seen large drops in Chinese consumer demand.
Cool, that sounds rather similar to the situation in the Netherlands! It'll be interesting once all these local companies start going international which win out. With a few mergers and acquisitions, at a certain point the best products of each will probably be available in many countries, which would make this even more accessible. Good prospects!

1) what evidence would convince you?

2) when you consider that education is a social policy, and is designed with the purpose of delivering benefit at scale, does that change your opinion? (That is, when you consider that it's meant to shift the median student's outcome more than that of the p99 student)
I don't think Spaces is the only one that can't get their act together. We moved to WeWork location last October. Took a week to sort out building passes. Took another one to deal with parking passes. Occasionally (yesterday), the gate won't open - trapping you in the garage. Thankfully, it's staffed by a human being now who will open it manually.

Finally and unbelievably, there is a bathroom on our floor that has no toilet cover dispenser. Bathrooms on other floors have it, but not this one. I mentioned it to the staff and they were told by their superiors that one won't be installed.

There is a lot to like about the location, but these problems are just simply comical and won't get fixed for whatever reason.

I wouldn't consider either German or Austrian cuisines to be vegetarian-friendly. Especially when contrasted with Indian food.

Having a few dishes that simply don't contain meat is a pretty low standard to set. I think good vegetarian cuisine should also make up for the lost nutritional value of meat (e.g. protein through lentils, seitan, tofu, etc), and of course, have the creativity and effort go into making it delicious. In German/Austrian cuisine, I find that often the vegetarian dishes are an afterthought, being more often on par with a side dish, rather than a true main course.

I think we mostly agree, especially when you bring China into it.

However, isn't the idea of forfeiting the personal jurisdiction defense? I am not a lawyer, but from what I understand, once you start debating the merits of the case, you waive the ability to claim that the court doesn't have jurisdiction.

It seems like there's a bit of a chance of that here - once you admit the EU or Chinese legal system is the appropriate place to redress things, you've given up lack of jurisdiction as a defense.

Sadly it's not that simple.

If you're seen (by EU courts) to be soliciting business from the EU (which could just mean running advertising that appears in the EU), you're subject to the laws.

So, blocking EU traffic to avoid being seen as doing business there may be a prudent step in some cases.

Nah, the headphone jack can move to the history books already. They oughta replace it with something standard, though, like USB-C. Bluetooth isn't an acceptable total replacement as long as batteries add bulk and need to be recharged. When that's fixed, Bluetooth everywhere will be fine also.

That's an interesting thought. Amusingly I just assumed I'd still pay for Spotify in that case, since they save me the time of maintaining and carrying my library around.
Similarly, I'm pretty sure that industries may shift or change fundamentally, but we're far better off with these changes ultimately.
It seems to me that if your argument is valid then the situation is even worse for machine learning.

That is to say, if machine learning cannot use the real numbers then they cannot solve any problem which depend on any properties of the reals, such as producing a machine learned function to compute the square root of two.

Now, it may be true (in fact I think it likely to be true) that the cardinality of the reals is a little bit different of a property than the denseness, enough so that machine learning can approximate the denseness and not the cardinality, but the reason for this doesn't seem to be simply "machine learning doesn't use the real numbers".

Re: the backups.

Rolling backups, e.g daily and weekly, are fairly common. When the request comes in, just acknowledge there will be a time period before the deletion is fully purged from system backups - as is still legal post-GDPR. The user data will still be removed from production data, which is of primary concern.
For a fairer comparison, consider the Note 9 ($1000 in India) vs the iPhone XS ($1400).

The extra $400 - 40% more - just makes it unaffordable.

> I see no downside to this shift from major corporate beer to smaller, local craft fare.

This is a model which has worked for hundreds of years in Germany. If you go to a local pub, you tend to either get a regional beer (eg hofbrau in Munich) or a micro brew from the village/town/pub itself. There's a huge amount of pride in local brewing.

Munich is perhaps a bad example since several of their breweries export globally (eg Paulaner, Franziskaner). In some cases these are very much mass produced brews, but in more rural places it's quite common to find the pub has a fermenter in the basement.

To a lesser extent this is the case in the UK, where most towns have their own brewery and will sell to all the local pubs. But the difference in Germany is that often there's no competition at all - it's the local helles or nothing.

Not quite as hard as the OP, though, since the conditions are slightly easier: only 3 inputs are tested, all of them are the same size, and all of them have exactly one solution.

Of course I believe N-rays are nonsense, but I can't help but notice similarities between these "N-Rays" and infrared radiation (perhaps thermal, perhaps near IR). Excited phosphors can be stimulated to de-excite with IR (increasing - temporarily! - the light intensity the phosphor emits. The sun emits IR of course. Water absorbs infrared. And being ~100% wrong in the blind controlled experiment indicates he is detecting the exact opposite, or misunderstood his task in the experiment. If it were random it would have been 50%... We are blindly believing Wood on his word he took out the prism for example.

Obviously N-rays don't exist though.

Something else is the article seems to concede that he did discover the wave nature of X-rays by deflecting them with a "charged electric field", which I assure you is total nonsense...

Disclaimer: I work at Ericsson but am not directly involved in any network operations.

Ericsson provides operations service for a number of telecom operators. This means, the operators own the equipment and make the decisions, while Ericsson does the maintenance, supervision and troubleshooting of the network. This is usually done on contracts of three to ten years, after which time the operator may choose to renew or to contract with one of our competitors.

I could certainly be wrong, but my impression is that in this scenario Ericsson is not the data custodian according to the GDPR. It would be interesting to know what the outcome is, if anyone were to make a GDPR request to my employer.
