Third parties don’t know his email address per say. A third party has hold of the OP’s info through a different source. This information in the third party DB is linked to a cookie or device id, or other means of digital footprint. Facebook onboards the third party data by syncing the ID they have for the OP under their origin, with the ID from the third party’s origin through a process called cookie syncing, which allows data from one origin to be pushed to another. Cookie syncing is how it is done on the web. For mobile, it is device ID syncing. To sync multiple devices, web + mobile, you use IP affinity + geo, or other means of inference and find common patterns through the stream of data. It is easy to link devices having access to the ad stream of an exchange like AT&T’s APPNEXUS for example. These are practices that were standard five or so years ago.
I can't imagine that a porn site full of videos of guys whaching off in front of their laptops would be a money spinner, tbh.
I meant a academic breakdown of how they work. Evolution, probability, herd immunity, history, etc. Doctors are in short supply and if they start acting as one on one teachers for the public, how are they going to have time to treat people.

There are plenty of researchers and PhDs who are subject matter experts on vaccines who can help educate, but I don’t think it’s possible with 1 on 1 interactions.
We must disagree on what is considered trivial or complex enough to warrant a 3rd party dependency and the complications that comes with it.

What does "other data collectors exist" have to do with Facebook's status as the dominating social network (95% (measuring DAUs)/80% (measuring MAUs) market share according to the press release)? Facebook also clearly cites other social media companies/networks from a wider scope in defense, not data collectors.

Space hardware is slowly but surely becoming commoditized and accessible. There are a number of initiatives to break open the market on the smallsat side.

Groups like the Libre Space Foundation [1] and LibreCube [2] are doing a great job of opening up the whole stack (software+hardware for space, launch, and ground systems). Projects like Ardusat [3] are also helping to "democratize" space, to use a cliche. Ardusat actually led to the founding of Spire [4], one of many commercial EO constellation companies that have benefited from the process of commoditization.

The "giant leap" really is closing a lot faster than people realize.

If you're interested in exploring the kind of hardware on the space market, check out https://satsearch.co. We've currently got 5,000+ products & services for the space market listed, with the goal being to use data to crack open the supply chain, enabling spin-in, spin-out, tech transfer, etc.

FYI, all batteries drain faster in extreme cold and hot weather. It's a given. So any electric car will have to deal with that. It's one of the drawbacks of electric vehicles.

Tesla has tried to dispute this in the past but it just a fact of physics.

For the first pass author maybe. Subsequent readings and modifications of the code by other authors are much, much harder without "annotated" code (be that types or schema like spec)
Hmm, I'm not sure. People who are curious about RasPi already know what it is, and people who wander in to the store wondering what it is are not THAT likely to pick one up. If it hasn't cost them much to do, then great, but I'm not sure if it's necessary. New models already all sell out immediately
I'm seeing lots of "but this is super helpful to improve UI flow, and normally isn't nefarious!"

Well, as long as the app 1. lets me know and 2. lets me choose whether to have this feature on or not, I don't have a problem with an app recording my usage of it in order to improve UI flow or what have you.

The issue here is that 1. sensitive data is being transmitted via automated screenshots and 2. the users are not even being made aware of this fact, let alone being given a choice.
I'm not so sure thats true from a financial perspective, at least if you mean him being an outlier. The financial market should have priced in these benefits, that means you can expect only normal "market" returns from these shares. So you won't get them for free.
That might not be an issue at all, often redux can add unneeded complexity, but the Context API isn't a direct replacement as things stand. It's not great, performance-wise, for dealing with collections of stuff. I like it a lot, but it's a blunt tool (which is totally fine for many things!)

That was true up to PHP5, where a Java-like, saner subset of the language with stronger typing became available.

The genius of PHP was in the code delivery model and the way you could intermix HTML and code in a single page to be served by Apache.

That democratized Web programming and programming at large. The rest of the language was bad, but it didn't matter for success (see "worse is better", where "better" means fitter for the market).
I think some practical solutions could come via adding features, not taking away, in a way that brought most people into the "needs special help" category.

For example, I'd like to be able to "read" interesting web pages when I'm out running or grocery shopping, as if listening to a podcast. Instead of "mobile first", if we went even further and built "screenless first", we could start with page design that was carefully built with sequential text sections, hierarchical landmarks, and standard voice controls that everyone could navigate in a fairly standard way. ("list main sections...stop. section 2, list items...stop. item 3, 150% speed...stop. next item...skip. next item...") Web devs could specially mark certain items with a keyword for direct access, but users could do it themselves with keyword macros for their favorite sites, so pretty soon a word or two takes you to a favorite site and does what you want, while you shop for pickles.

Of course, this would need to be a web standard, so devs only had one target and users only had to learn it once for all audio browsers and all sites built for it. Building at least certain categories of sites to support screenless access for the general public would make the marginal cost of making it accessible (in certain ways) free. Then you add your CSS to the screenless code.
We shouldn’t let someone who doesn’t understand evolution and probability to consider themselves educated. Those concepts should be required to be learned in high school, and not be able to pass without them.
Yeah, JS too.
I don't think we're ever going to return to a revenue level similar to the 90s, honestly I think that was a historical aberration caused by a number of supporting factors.

In the early 90s, more people in the west had more disposable income, production had become all-digital (lowering production costs), and CDs cost next to nothing to make compared to stamping vinyl or making cassettes, so the profit margins were bigger. There was also the explosion of pop music, especially boy bands with gigantic fan bases. CD players were inexpensive and started to come as standard equipment in cars. At the same time, storage capacity and processing power in the average PC was inadequate for storing uncompressed CD quality audio and playing back compressed audio, respectively. Of course, usable lossy audio codecs were very much in their infancy, and CD-R drives were still very expensive, slow and unreliable. Not to mention the lacking state of mobile devices at the time, if anyone even had a mobile phone at this time, it was very likely to be on an old-fashioned analog network.

It was the perfect environment for big record industry profits, but by the late 90s/early 2000s, we had Napster, affordable CD-R drives, increased storage space, processing power and internet speeds, and of course properly viable lossy codecs. Pandora's box was opened, and now matter how they try, the big labels can't close it back up again.

I don't think segmentation is the solution, you can't get people to accept tiered pricing based on usage, the $10 for unlimited usage like a library is the entire reason people love streaming services. I think what they can do is add higher subscription tiers with bonus features, higher sound quality, personalized content that isn't just made by an algorithm. Maybe they could even do exclusive access to new releases, but that may result in backlash from "basic" subscribers who feel like they're getting cheated out of content.

In the end, perhaps it's just an uncomfortable shift towards less income from records sales/plays, and a bigger reliance on touring and merch sales. I know a few bands that use Patreon as a sort of "pay what you want" fanclubs, where you get early access to various content at lower tiers, and things like Skype chats or guitar lessons at higher tiers.

Makes sense - their offices are (were?) based in Cambridge just up the road from the city centre and about a 15min walk from the new shop. Little trivia: in my previous job I worked in the offices that would be taken over by Raspberry Pi a couple of years later :)
That seems unfair and wrong. I'm forced to have a job to pay my bills and I get to pick my job but that doesn't exactly mean it's without my consent.

I also have the choice of not working or wiring some other job.

I would say it's a responsibility not supporting forced on people against their will. Two very different things.

An Enthralling and Terrifying History of the Nuclear Meltdown at Chernobyl
Nice one. Will save that to when I have time.
Rules and technicalities have always been important to the EU. Nothing about this is gas lighting; the UK wanted out[0], so that's what happens. It's pretty clear they never really considered the consequences of leaving, and listened to lies about what those consequences would be. Gas lighting is a serious issue, but this isn't it.

[0] Or at least, the people currently in charge of the UK government want out. According to polls, many of the people of the UK have by now acquired a better sense of the consequences. The government seems unwilling to listen to them, though.
And let's not forget the mess that is push support - this murders it on mobile and therefore more or less the biggest messaging market.

Isaac Asimov Asks, “How Do People Get New Ideas?”
Cheap brands generally use some form of capacitive dropper scheme. These result in the 120/100Hz flickering but is cheap to produce as very little components are needed (X2 class capacitor, maybe some current limiting resistor(s) and a discharge resistor, bridge rectifier, or even skip the rectifier altogether). They are not to be used with a dimmer. Some info on them [1]

The switch-mode power supplies in proper lamps get the stuff done way better and there will be no noticeable flicker. Maybe in the order of several kHz in ripple which you cannot see.

Also; cheap off brands (looking at you china) sometimes have caps rated at 250V which is far from the peak mains rate of about 320V (in 220/230V countries).

I've seen sake sommeliers, most of the upscale Indian places in London have not just a wine sommelier, but they also offer excellent cocktails.

Unfortunately I'm not super familiar with nicer Chinese food, but I'd presume that it's not incompatible with drinks either.

I'm not saying that you need to have a sommelier, I'm just saying that the lack of a sommelier is usually a pretty good sign that a restaurant isn't even trying for a star (extremely few restaurants are!).

I don't think Michelin would tend to rate any "traditional" restaurants very highly, to get stars you need to offer the specific Michelin experience.

It's common practice in psychology degrees to have some of your ungraded but required credit basically be "participate in the studies of others". I get why they do it this way (otherwise there wouldn't be enough people willing to participate in undergrad psychology experiments). Personally I find this practice very unethical.
If they really wanted, the UK could still stay in the common market. It would be a bit late in the process, and a sudden reversal, but I think a lot of people would be really happy if they'd at least stay in the common market.

The problem is that they don't want that. They'd prefer to pick and choose which parts of the common market they get to stay in, while leaving other parts of the common market, and it just doesn't work that way.
C# Futures: Static Delegates and Function Pointers
Not to get political, but this is pretty much the reason I think college should be free or close to free for any American who wants to go. Other countries do this successfully, and there's no reason we couldn't here.

College in America has become a means test for the majority of people. If your family can pay for the degree, you are guaranteed a more prosperous life than if they can't. Yes, there's financial aid and scholarships, but applying for them is a lot of work, and if you are stretched, you're less likely to be able to.

Imagine a world where everybody with the drive to be a doctor or engineer or scientist had the access. Instead of trying to discover the hidden gems among poor Americans, can't we assume that most people are hidden gems and they all deserve an education?
I would be cautious about making a language with only reference counting since you can easily end up with stack overflows when implementing something as innocent as a linked list unless you keep some sort of list of objects to free in the runtime.

Just start with Apache Jena, standards based with RDF as the exchange format and SPARQL for the query language. Others solutions may use proprietary stuff for better vendor lock-in: This is completely up to you if you want that. But with Apache Jena you can change later to other KG databases. Also: Apache Jena is easy to work with, since it includes Fuseki to start directly using it as a web API.

https://jena.apache.org/

Once you need "big data" for your personal Knowledge Graph, you can use other RDF stores, without vendor lock-in.

DJB on hashing identifying information[1]:

> Hashing is magic crypto pixie-dust, which takes personally identifiable information and makes it incomprehensible to the marketing department. When a marketing person looks at random letters and numbers they have no idea what it means. They can't imagine that anybody could possibly understand the information, reverse the hash, correlate the hashes, track them, save them, record them.

That actually looks like it costs a bit. I wonder if they get a good return on the investment. Would more people decide to buy into the RPi ecosystem because they walked into the store as opposed to reading about it all over the internet or talking to friends? It's a running cost so it has to bring a steady flow of income to pay for itself. Hard to do in a relatively niche market with a good product that depreciates very slowly.

But who knows, they probably did the math better than me, random internet commenter #9643.
Angular will pass, so will the next framework and react to, once you’ve been through a few of these frameworks, you’ll probably become less excited about investing your time into them if you have the opportunity to invest into something more fundamental, say functional or logic programming, data modelling or architecture skills.

Young devs are surprised when I say Git is only okay, look forward to the next SCM tool, they tend to think git will be the tool fir eternity, and surprised when I list if the 6 other tools I’ve gone through in my career ... so far!
> [...] developing that language and the program together, is an underestimated strategy. I believe the world would be more interesting if more people applied it [...]

I find this applies to most development, once you muddy the distinction between program and language you can see how the concept applies to other things - that is, it's a continuum, and artificially and prematurely locking down the design and implementation of a lower level piece before exploring the landscape can hurt... though determining what is "premature" and what is not is of course pure intuition.
Since there are different manifestations of colorblindness, it would seem that if the UI works with b+w, it will work with all of those variations.
It's very sobering. But much harder now when everything is on HTTPS.
Why? The temperature in and of itself matters less than the total energy in the system and whether it supports life as we know it and the systems we've built to depend on it.

If we go through a temporary spell where temperatures are ahead of the average, thanks to alignment of various factors like El Niño etc, we get to see a flavour of what's coming. Just like the recent heat wave in Europe, or more extreme storms, perhaps even extreme cold events, changes to trade winds or Gulf Stream etc and local areas of cooling.

Who knows what will tip over the edge from borderline into extinct or broken? Who knows what previously unforeseen consequences will result? Or how near to uninhabitable some places become. Perhaps Australia, perhaps somewhere more populous like cities in India or Bangladesh.

The significance then, is a taste of things to come may provoke action, or even acceptance among those who pretend it's not happening. The trend is so clear I don't have too much hope here.

It's mostly academic what temperatures were 7,000 years ago. There were a minuscule fraction of today's population with only somewhere under 20m humans globally. Living an undeveloped lifestyle. No global agriculture with fragile global supply chains and production targets. Plenty of animals to hunt, plenty of extra land owned by no one, no hard borders. Plenty of local deaths due to drought, flood or pestilence too.

Yet even with a tiny number of humans, archaeology points to local climatic changes as prime suspect of the fall many civilisations including the ancient Egyptian.

The point is that "I would never do that!" is not a valid defense. Humans make errors, you are not an exception to this rule and leaking data is made very, very easy.

I grew up in Asia, and never quite understood the tipping culture. Because employers aren't paying their staff a living wage, they ask their customers to tip. It all seems completely backwards to me.

These scumbag startups are taking it 1 step further by taking the tips away.
