So what? They can still track you across devices. Especially if they use some 3rd party ad SDK, which might use the Google advertising ID, or some other identifiers.
I think the beauty is that you don't invest in companies directly attempting to be that big, companies just need to be good at what they do enough to invest in other spaces. You invest in a company that has the potential to dominate their existing market. Trying to be an all in one company is only doable if you got a nation state actor funding the whole damn thing, or someone with enough money to blow. Eventually though people start getting suspicious about your company if it covers too much ground. People are getting more weary of Google, Amazon and others.
I think the Munich-Berlin route is the prime example where high-speed rail makes sense. It's long enough to really make a difference but not too long so that you would consider a plane. 95€ seems cheap for the DB, I have a bahncard 50 (so 50% off) and usually pay ~30€ for Karlsruhe-Munich (bit over 3 hours), but I usually buy them when I start my trip.
Why cant the train and infrastructure be run by the state- while the service inside is run by a private company?

Like, the company rents the traincar barebone and puts in seats, foodstalls, wifi, ac, etc.

Finally, while we are at modernizing, can we get maglev trains - with detaching and attaching passenger cabins? Because, the real slowdown in europe is local "little" emperors having a say where the train stops, and theire voters region is that one place, the ICE has to stop.
No, it couldn't. It is not a journalistic norm to collaborate in advance on the criminal acquisition of material by a leaker, and if a journalist does do that they are relying on political factors, not the law, to protect them from prosecution afterward.

Yeah, it's normal for journalists to engage with sources and to acquire information from them, sometimes information that the sources have themselves obtained illegally. But it crosses a bright line for them to collaborate in the illegal acquisition.

Now, you might argue that but for the agreement about the password, the “manner and means” section is largely descriptive of normal journalistic practice. But the manner and means, while necessary description and support, aren't the heart of a conspiracy charge. The “purpose and object” is, and the password is the key part of the manner and means supporting the distinction of the purpose and object from what occurs in normal journalistic practice.

The password isn't a side issue; it's what distinguishes this from “I talked to a source and got copies of documents they stole from safe deposit boxes at the bank where they work” and “I was let into the bank by the source and tried to drill out the lock of a safe deposit box he lacked the key for”.

The former is within the scope of journalism. The latter is not.
I recently installed a dating App that required authentication via Facebook or SMS. I chose SMS (because screw Facebook). But lo and behold, it turns out the App developer uses Facebook's SDK for the SMS verification anyway. And since FB has my phone number from the two factor scam [1] it pulled, it really made no difference.

Not cool.

I know pretty well how Bahncard works, I live in Germany.

The calculation might be easier, but I am yet to know a company that actually offers them to the employees.

While I have been at several companies that require the employees to own such cards, buy the tickets themselves and submit the travel expenses later. So most people end up owning a 25 or 50 one.

As for the flights, those are the prices we pay on average on our weekly flights between our sites and customer locations across Germany. I did not check specifically for Hamburg -> Munich.

> Location data can also be used to help prove your innocence.

Well not really. If that were the case and if someone was going to commit a crime they could simply place their phone in someone else's auto (let's say without them even knowing) and then have that data be the data that is 'them'. This would quickly unravel. Besides I don't think it's so much that the data is useful other than it gives clues and points in a particular direction whereby the police can then narrow down or look further into a particular suspect.

VSCode seems rather monolithic. Skimming it briefly, there seems code which might be usefully repackaged as npm packages for service elsewhere. (I didn't check whether npm packages exist providing similar functionality.)

This can certainly be the right call for a project. But maybe it's an untapped opportunity for the broader community?

Has anyone looked at running a tracking fork, say mechanically massaging vscode into a monorepo?

As I explore opportunities for coding inside VR, having a more integrated ecosystem for creating IDEs would be nice.

I hope you see that writing millions of lines of original source code on top of (Election, node, v8,..) and investing tens of engineers at millions per year in cost, to create VSCode is not equivalent to disabling telemetry and slapping a non Microsoft label on it.

There's absolutely zero problems with people using OSS as intended. But for me personally, as I stated in the original parent comment, value obtained by persisting with Microsoft's VSCode, despite telemetry, is worth continuing to use it, as against an entity's fork whose USP is furthering unfounded FUD.
The "buffer" you want YouTube to raise at the cost of freedom of speech is...ignorance? I can quote famous people too: Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

And of course speech can harm, but that doesn't mean it can or should be stopped with censorship. Who decides what to censor? How can you realistically censor ideas in a free society with advanced communication tools? What kind of society will you create when its main defence against bad ideas is ignorance? I hope that citizens ask these questions before resorting to the childish solution of hiding bad things away.
Whether you get a huge tax refund or not is about how much you chose to overpay on withholdings not how much you were taxed.

Right, what I’m trying to say is that the obsolescence schedule of tablets and the rate of development does not match hardware like cars refrigerators well. Large physical items like that with other primary purposes should last a decade or two, at least.

I would think the best solution for this is to have swappable, upgradable tablets. Maybe basic operations built in, and a dock for a tablet that you could change whenever.

For any of this to function well, the manufacturers either have to work closely with competent consumer software companies, or become one themselves. It reminds me of the situation where cell phone carriers are expected to update the ROM on your old android phone, and often don’t do so regularly, because they’re not competent software or hardware companies.

>Mouse and scroll-wheel integration roughly doesn't work at all.

emacs, when started with the -nw flag, has nothing to do with mouse gestures. The terminal emulator (iterm in your case) sits between you and emacs and does not pass mouse gestures to emacs.

Actually, to be painfully precise, there is a convention, which iterm and emacs might or might not use, by which iterm could conceivably pass the location of single left clicks to the emacs process, but, e.g., mouse drag events and scroll-wheel events never get passed.

So for example when the users drags the mouse, then presses Command-C, `emacs -nw` has no way of knowing the user did that, and if anything got into the system clipboard, that is iterm's doing, not emacs's.

Might I suggest `open Emacs.app` rather than `emacs -nw`?
Except for a GNU or Emacs logo that can be suppressed by setting the variable inhibit-startup-screen to non-nil and except for a tool bar that can be suppressed by evalling `(tool-bar-mode -1)`, the result is indistinguishable from a terminal window to most Mac users, but has mouse and scroll-wheel integration.
It would be interesting to try Markdown files for configuration data. Documentation and settings in the one file: structured data like arrays can be stored in md tables.

We've been using HOCON for some configuration files. JSON but with comments and a few other more human friendly bits.

I don't hate it, but I really dislike it. It's definitely better than JSON for this purpose, but it's still quirky and a bit of a pain.
> It's not that different from modifying an older car.

There's a huge practical difference between gearheads modifying the physical parts of their cars and a world where any Tesla buyer could as easily tweak engine, breaking etc. performance as they could download an app or re-flash their phone. You'd have idiots who'd otherwise never bothered to modify their cars dying as a result of trying to rice up their ride.

It's the same situation as RC planes and drones. The RC community had a natural selection bias for decades and wasn't worth regulating, then drones became available on the mass-market resulting in a bunch of idiocy that regulators needed to scramble to keep up with.

I think car manufacturers are rightly paranoid about that. There's a lot of profoundly stupid and unsafe stuff you could trivially do with a Tesla if you had access to the software, and if it was easy to install those sorts of things people would do so en masse.
I'm not sure what the the author would suggest but I'm increasingly of the opinion that config files formats should be treated as a compile target not a file that you edit.

There are formats that are easier to edit than others and formats that are easier to parse than others. But sooner or later all of them end up being created by an ill-suited template engine or embedding a programming language in the syntax (cloudformation, ansible, hcl2).

Why not treat the config file as a generated artifact that is readable but not written by a human. Tools like jsonnet (https://jsonnet.org/), dhall-lang (https://dhall-lang.org/), or my personal side project ucg (https://ucg.marzhillstudios.com/) allow you reuse values and safely generate your configuration formats with comments and logic all while bypassing the pitfalls of most formats.

They give you a purpose built language for creating configurations with comments and logic w/o putting that burden on your application later. And it allows you to ignore the parts of a particular format that cause you problems.
They seem to only care about stories that are critical of Western intelligence while ignoring the (or withholding?) leaks that don't align with that agenda.
To be honest, i expect a lot of robot producers to be sold off for the same reason.
Robots - as they are produced now are a dead end. The reason beeing the expected compatability to legacy software and programmability by low skill labour. Robotsystems, are softwarewise for a large part - still stuck in the 90s, pre object-orientation.

So to sell of kuka, was a smart move by the shareholders, because like most tradrobot producers, kuka had peaked. Industry 4.0 and lots of other Innovation (NN-driven self optimization, etc.) simply will and can not happen with what is sold today. Most robot systems are little, bug-riddled walled in gardens, while the industry of factory automation, actually needs a steam like system to provide cheap, reliable modules.

And when it will happen, giants like google and amazon are actually positioned pretty well to take over the whole sector. They have the tech, they have the talent, and they even might get the chance to stripmine a whole industry for the core-knowledge, by being the cheapest and best robot producer out there.

This industry is like the paper roadmap industry waiting for the https://www.google.com/maps to be registered.

I think this is misleading or misstated. Haversine distance of points on a sphere is a monotonic function of euclidean distance, so one's nearest neighbor is the same in both. You must be warning people not to just take the sum of square differences on the actual latitude and longitude values.

Withholding is an awful idea designed to favor the government over the taxpayer and to psychologically soften the blow of the ridiculous tax rates we pay. It's especially bad with mandatory withholding by the employer. It shouldn't happen. Taxpayers ought to figure out how much they owe and write the check for it at once. This is especially true since consumers can't invest that income or get interest on it: I could get a 6-month CD and make some extra money otherwise.
There's much more to tracking than your phone's tracking/Advertising ID. A modern smartphone app can identify you and commit pervasive tracking whether or not this ID is set. Disallowing permissions partially solves this problem, except that an app can get quite far just by setting its own UUIDs and sharing them with other vendors.

Further, an Android phone with no 3rd party apps is already sending an enormous amount of tracking data to Google, where it can be purchased by 3rd parties. None of this requires an Advertising ID.

My personal experience with Waymo autonomous driving has been pretty good. Never seen them do anything poorly and I see them a lot. They're known in Mesa/Chandler Arizona as decent enough drivers, but they can take a little long for a left turn and they also follow the speed limit rather than the flow of traffic which is the normal Arizona case.

Which accounts for less than half of one percent of the US defense budget. The fact remains: we're spending 3-4x less of our GDP on defense than we were in the 60s. There's no way to justify the claim that defense spending is "out of control".
I see this as a good thing. We need less people in the world, it will be better for the planet, and civilization will be more sustainable. Better to have a highly automated more empty world than a hot crowded one with too many mouths to feed and not enough food to go around.

As bad as china is, it's not much worse than the US.

The United States started a war in Iraq which was essentially just whole sale slaughter for oil. The US spies on it's own people through the NSA. Corruption dominates politics as essentially people/corperations with the deepest pockets currently drive policy. The US is the number 1 energy waster and number 1 green house gas producer and with policy controlled by big business the way forward is actually blocked by business interests.

China dictatorship allows for an entire high speed rail network to be built across the country in less than a decade while California has spent 3 decades trying to ring the Bart around the bay. China dictatorship allows the government to set aggressive targets for green house gas emissions without big business getting in the way.

No government is guiltless of sin and china is definitely not innocent. But they aren't much different in the US in terms of evil and atrocities. Governments like people are flawed and china is not out to slaughter Jews in a Holocaust but china is definitely very flawed.

In the coming years based on current trends china will become the economic super power of the world surpassing the US and Europe in almost every area. This will happen whether you like it or not and they are winning through justified means... Economic development. They are not cheating they are not doing anything underhanded they are simply better than Europe and the US economically.

Caucasians have always been the dominant race when associating modern technological society and race. They built the western world. The coming rise of china will put Asians on the top of the list. It's not racism, but subconscious competition. If you look at the behavior of china and the way globalism works. China has no interest in starting a war. Their interests are business in nature and for them to be successful involves working together with the US and Europe.

Worst case scenario the US might declare war on china with a cover story talking about some human rights issue or some crime not much different from the US slaughtering people in Iraq because of fake wmds. That's the cover story of course the real reasons would be economic or racially fueled. But even this is very unlikely as war in this day and age is no longer beneficial for either side.

Make no mistake however. The trend for the future is this. China will be the economic powerhouse of the world and racial stereotypes will shift. There was a time in china when one would see a white man walking through the country and he would be assumed to be someone of great wealth just by his race. That time has ended long ago, and a new stereotype will soon replace it.
