there is a lawsuit pending that focuses on snapchats potential misrepresentation of instagrams size and effect on the mkt

investors should've done their own due diligence on that, what i believe is more likely is that snapchat misrepresented its user numbers pre IPO as alleged by a fired employee in 2015

investors wouldn't have cared if the stock went up, but it went down so they need to find an actual tangible way that snapchat lied to them to recoup any money from a bad bet

Amazon I think tracks whatever it can. Whenever I visit a product, even if I didn't buy it the product (or something similar) will show up as "Continue shopping ...", and not very later as ads on my Facebook feed. It almost creeps me out (I use quite a few filters on uBlock), considering there is no visible facebook "Like" button on Amazon.

Not sure how it works, but whatever I see on Amazon shows up as ads on Facebook.
Same experience. I was weary to get one due to all the hate online but now that I own one I love it.

I trade options. I used to post the plans for free for people to follow but it was really time consuming, so I would post every now and then. Someone asked to see all my plans, so I created a script to read it via my brokerage account and post it to Discord/e-Mail. Now, I just continue buying and selling options when my system tells me to and it messages the channel. The most time consuming part is advertising which I sometimes do. I plan to automatically post free plans to different social media platforms (randomly) in the future and that would make it completely passive most likely.

I took a course on Rhetoric and Public Policy at CMU. The topic that year was Nuclear Energy, and we had a fantastic mix of engineers, nuclear scientist PhD candidates, and humanities students. This was during the actual Fukushima crisis, I believe that Fall Semester.

It was very sobering going through and comparing the Fukushima writing to writing from the 70s. It's been a long time since the course, but I'm not surprised by the results whatsoever.

I struggle with this too. I applaud Apple's emphasis on privacy but they've probably done more than any single company to advance the spread of proprietary software. If they had it their way then their app store would be the single gatekeeper for all non-trivial consumer apps. I have plenty of issues with Google but I can still sideload an APK on my phone if I want and I see Google doing a lot more to help the web compete with native apps than Apple does. I don't want to live in a world where a arbitrary app store rejection means my app effectively doesn't exist.
Typically, philosophers would not consider a belief about a formal system justified unless that belief is backed by a proof.

In software, for known behavioral specs, you don't have a real justification until you write a formal proof. Just because formal proofs are uneconomical doesn't mean there's some fundamental philosophical barrier preventing you from verifying your UI code. Doing so is not just possible, there are even tools for doing it.

So really, this is not a Gettier case, because in formal systems a true justification is possible to construct in the form of a mathematical proof.

An example of a Gettier case in a software system would be formally verifying something with respect to a model/spec that is a Gettierian correct-but-incorrect model of the actual system.

There are almost no software systems where we have true JTB (proofs), so there are almost none where Gettier cases really apply.

Uncertainty in software is more about the economics of QA than it is about epistemology or Gettier style problems, and that will remain true until we start writing proofs about all our code, which will probably never happen.
That's correct, we're not suggesting people use Chrome on their iOS device (but is a good question and a super common bit of feedback we got doing training for this stuff with end-users, who assumed that's what we meant). The subtext for the Chrome recommendation is "that's the browser you use on your general-purpose computer". WebKit on iOS benefits (imperfectly, but vs. a general-purpose machine it's probably a wash) from iOS's built-in application sandboxing and security controls.

Regarding sharing of sensitive documents: if you have to do it over the Internet, use a secure messenger to do it. Email attachments are probably the second most dangerous attack vector facing end-users (after phishing). That's why we tell people to use Google Mail; attachments open in their browser viewer and are rendered Google-serverside.

You don't need to convince everyone to use Signal; it's adequate to use WhatsApp, which, again, is already one of the most popular messaging applications in the world (this is one of the reasons getting Signal Protocol baked into WhatsApp was such a monumental achievement).
You know, I switched to an iPhone exactly for this purpose years back. Got an iPhone 6s and used it for years.

It was definitely not easy giving up the convenience of integrations you got with Google, the small things. In the end apple maps suck compared to Google and if you want to look for a restaurant well would you rather give your info to Yelp/foursquare than Google? So Google maps it is.

After a bit you get used to it, apple does scratch your privacy itch by showing things like when an app is using your location.

Then after three years I had to upgrade, I was like that was grest, but fuck me if I have to shell out 10 Benjamins for a fucking phone when I can get an as good phone (everything except privacy) for half that price. I just purchased a Galaxy S9 and finally remembered how much I used to like Android.

Moral of the story is, if you're anything like me, you'll eventually be like fuck it Google take my data give me a cheap good phone.

This is so true. Even on iPhone. I was recently traveling abroad and lost my debit card so I cancelled it. I had a credit card for the remainder of my travels but I wanted to wait to replace my iTunes/App Store payment with my new debit card number instead of my credit card. Well when Apple tried to run my disabled debit card for my monthly fees (Apple Music, extra iCloud storage space, etc.) the card didn't work and the app store was basically bricked on my phone until I updated my payment method. I couldn't even download the free updates to the free apps on my phone until Apple got their $8 from me. I'm generally a big fan of Apple and I think they usually try to do right by customers but it's appalling that a company is able to hold such an important personal device hostage without any warning over an insignificant infraction.
I don't love that recommendation, but would have a hard time arguing that bluetooth keyboards with iPads are less secure than any desktop OS with a wired-in keyboard.

Funny thing about SUVs. Everyone seems to universally hate them on the internet, but they make up for > 50% of all new car sales in the US. Even funnier to me is the folks that in one breath say they want the W126 manual wagon but then scoff at an SUV which is a STATION WAGON, slightly raised. Subaru has been killing it by marketing their SUVs as wagons or vice versa. I drive an SUV. Its a grand cherokee. Its the SRT model. Its my favorite car ever.
I used the incorrect version of a similar word. Get over it. I could edit but now won't even bother.
The EU is far more than a 'customs union'.

It's a political union, with an unelected Executive body, and a very powerful Supreme Court (Court of Justice), and so much more - that almost no European citizen ever voted for.

Everyone is for trade, most are for open borders, very few for deep political integration.

To the extent the elites push against the underlying sentiment - there will be problems. Such problems are clearly on the rise all over the EU in various incarnations, it'd be nice if the EU took this time of crisis to re-evaluate it's existence and reconsider a bunch of things.
With gas under $2 a gallon, it's not surprising that SUVs are selling like hotcakes and sedans are barely moving.

Bump gasoline up a dollar or two, then SUVs and trucks will slow down.

Cars are also better these days, lasting longer. I've got a 10 year old car (had it for a year), it's been rock-solid reliable. I think good used cars are a compelling alternative to a new vehicle.
To achieve the same effect, you would need a “gradient mesh” which is not supported by the current version of SVG.

Nonsolicits are a common term in consulting MSAs --- though usually it's the client demanding them and not the consultant offering them unbidden.

3 out of every 5 clients of ours takes our unilateral indemnity clause (our legal was optimistic!) and simply reverses it so it works for the client and against us. I'm pretty close to offering mutual indemnification simply to avoid round trips. Anyways my point is that, as the representative of corporate attorneys on this thread, I blame you.

That chart doesn't necessarily show what you're suggesting. Even if we throw out the giant dip during WWII, the "trend" seems to be completely swallowed by the volatility. Why assume that we're seeing anything other than a random walk? If there were some underlying "reason", why would it have to be "the effectiveness of ads"?

I felt the same way and ended up with a Surface Laptop 2. I am soo happy the overall feel especially the nice 3:2 screen and keyboard. The only thing I'd have changed was to also add a USBC port (it has a USB-A, MiniDP, headphone that works with Apple mics/headsets and a magnetic charging/dock connector). I never thought I'd go back to Windows but the new Macbooks drove me to try it and now Windows 10, especially with the WSL Ubuntu layer, sucks much less. They even put OpenSSH into windows proper now so no more putty even outside of the Linux layer.
How is the insurance company taking a concentrated risk? My auto insurance co is betting that more people will drive safely and not make claims than the value of claims paid out. They distribute, not concentrate, their risk. They accept that there will be some people who have claims larger than what they have paid in, but that risk is distributed over a large pool.

At this point I'm not sure if UK can do much to avoid a major constitutional crisis one way or another. The deal would be seen as betrayal of Brexit by most its supporters, and remaining even more so. Hard exit would make a mess in Northern Ireland, for starters, and then you have Scotland, and not to forget that Remainers actually make the majority of the population in UK as a whole at this point.
I’m just saying that the Brexit question was ultimately the same: too complex to comprehend, so people understood it in a ludicrously simplified form. It’s just less obvious when the complexity isn’t even known yet.

I think your conclusion is right. Having an agreement worked out first probably wouldn’t have changed much.
Exactly: I am usually writing backends for financial systems which need high throughput and low latency; dynamic is just a massive performance hit. And almost never needed; people usually use it because lazy in my experience.

It is just ‘faster’ for people to dump JSON into dynamic and write against that than it is to properly create structured classes. In the end ofcourse the unittests validate the JSON, the code is slow and harder to use and refactor; you would have saved time and stress actually just writing classes with proper typing.
No, although that could be part of it.

You are probably talking about consumer gear. Consumers usually have two requirements:
a) FEATURES FEATURES FEATURES. All of them. 200 beamforming antennas. Interplanetary internet.
b) Price. All of the above for the lowest price possible. FTL communication? Cool. It better be under $50 or I'll buy the competitor.

So this is what the companies optimize for. Who cares if DHCP is broken if it works most of the time. Memory leak? Just have it reboot. IPV6 broken? Most customers won't even know or care.

You'll find that 'enterprise' hardware performs way better. At a price premium.
Driving absolutely is an arms race. I wonder what engineering would come up with if they started with a premise of 2 seats, back to front, centered, and with an eye towards safety against large vehicles.
> "they are a hardware company, which they’ve always been."

I don't really buy this. If it were true, they'd have no reason not to open up more of their software. Why not take the Hack out of Hackintosh, distribute the OS freely and let anybody run it on whatever hardware they please? The answer is obvious: their software drives purchases of their hardware. People buy Apple hardware because they desire Apple software. You'll be hard pressed to find somebody who buys a macbook but then primarily runs Windows on it.

It's not a matter of Apple "hardware company" or a "software company" that's important here, in this context. It's Apple being a "hardware or software or both" company, while Google and Facebook are neither hardware nor software companies. They're advertising companies.

> What do you think “chaos at the border” means?

Probably not the UK self-imposing a famine on its people in favour of establishing a permit Raj. It sounds a lot more like government officials trying to get attention through hyperbole and extra funding for their departments than anything else. There’s nothing stopping the UK from declaring no duties on all imports and liberalizing incoming trade from Europe and elsewhere even more than it is now if it’s in their interests to do so. A lot of trade policy is unilateral when it comes down to it.
I'm waiting for an electric Toyota Tacoma. Meanwhile, I drive a Civic. It's not too bad, but it only gets 34.2 mpg (long term average) with 80% highway driving. I may need to review my driving habits though. I got used to 51 mpg with my Jetta TDI but they were cheating of course.
I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with any expressed opinions on Friedman, but it's interesting to see someone criticized by political opponents on both sides who fundamentally misunderstand everything he said and stood for. This persisted through his whole life and obviously after his passing as well.

At his core, Friedman was fundamentally about a person's right to choose the direction of their own life. That's it -- really all you have to understand about the guy.

The GOP seems to love Friedman right now, even though they don't understand him and that makes him an easy target for the opposition. In truth his arguments were fundamentally no different from his oft-adored 'liberal' peers: Henry Simons, Ludwig von Mises, and Friedrich von Hayek. Economic freedom is essential to attain political freedom.
I'm curious how you can say they're generating unimpressive returns for their LPs.

To me it seems like that a revote would have to deal with the literal fear mongering the stay side has been pushing out. My personal favorite is the food shortages, while every other country outside of the EU manages to import food, apparently if you try to leave, you wont' be able to find the food you want on the shelves any more!

The EU would not blockade Britain, as many of these articles seem to imply (how else would you just run out of something simply because you have to import it from a 'foreign' country now?). Britain would have to pay any tariffs the EU imposes to others of course, but it would also be in their best interest to not set them so high that people in Britain stop buying their products at all. Any 'shortages' would be brought about by shear mismanagement.
> a line that makes Camrys on Monday can make RAV4s on Tuesday

In fact it is even more agile than this! I toured a Toyota factory in Japan last year and they were assembling many different models on the same line at the same time, with the same workers. From what I recall, it is supposed to improve morale as the work is less repetitive.

I highly recommend the tour. It is free, and there is an English-language option. The only downside was it was quite a long train ride away from Tokyo, for quite a short tour.
I barely watch anything any more on Netflix streaming. When I do try something new -- especially one of their "Netflix originals" -- I increasingly feel I am being fed the same set of tropes. (E.g. There's only so much dystopia I can take. Especially when it recycles the same plot and dialog points.)

This price bump may be it, for me. I'm too inclined to just keep on keeping on. I don't do "resolutions", but this year, one intention is to stop that.

Besides, I increasingly feel like I'm funding, with my subscriptions, the very people -- and their lawyers -- who keep making things worse and worse.

(Reading the recent reporting that Netflix software engineers average 300K a year hasn't really helped my attitude, either. So, THAT's what I'm paying for... (?) )
Those same people would have scoffed at station wagons in the 1960s and minivans in the 1980s.

People want a vehicle that's easier to enter/exit than a go-cart, a full height storage area and a second row of seats that folds down. It just so happens that we call those vehicles "crossovers", "SUVs" or "cars" depending on whether you're asking the sale department, the compliance department or the engineering department.
Demonstrating compliance with the law can be and often is a legal requirement itself.
Macan turbo is a cool looking car.
But I also have an extremely low opinion about people who decide to purchase a performance sports car brand, and then pick the SUV model.
Depends what you’re looking for. If you’re trying to measure a very slight bias then more observations can help.

Now imagine that you want to measure that bias across different types of coins and year of minting. Does the bias between coins of the same type vary more than across types?

Cloud hardware is expensive. What's changed is that virtualization has permitted selling computational power in units less than the physical CPU.

This in turn has driven greater price discrimination which leads to more efficient consumption, which is why in the era of "free" hardware Intel is raking in more cash than anyone ever thought possible.

The whole design is bad. Calls out to untrusted code should never have been allowed. You should be able to send messages out to untrusted code and to send ether.

Anecdotally, centralized institutions have broken many peoples’ trust in the past. It’s starting to look like a bit of a wash to me—not that I’m racing to close my accounts. Just the same, I’m not ready to write off an early tech that is still being developed and experimented on.
