So, in a traditional embedded system, discovery can reveal the source code to help determine what went wrong (e.g. divide by zero error in x-ray machine). What are the lawyers going to get when they start looking into the Tesla's autopilot software?
Nice writeup! Only feedback is it seems like you dont need to dna hijack anything. Seems like you can just register localhost-lollolanything.com and pull the attack off, no?
IE was not tied to Windows upgrades, except in a sense that new IE versions would eventually stop supporting old Windows versions (but that's true of all browsers). IE6 was available on Win98+ and NT4+, for example. IE7 and IE8 were XP/2003+.

As far as divergence from the standards, again, that was generally not the case when IE6 shipped - if anything, it was at the bleeding edge, and past it in some ways. The real problem with it was that it wasn't updated fast enough to keep up with the rapid pace of web standards after the initial release; and when IE7 finally came, it had very minor improvements (IIRC the biggest one was PNG transparency?). But that was a different era already.

I'm confused here.

Has Tesla publicly stated which sections of the road autopilot doesn't work on ?
> I'm really inclined to believe renting homes shouldn't be legal

Either own a home or be homeless. That's more humane. /s
Not sure what relevance that has. All the vague signs make it look like something out of a parody skit or cartoon.
Fascism tends to have these attributes:

* dictatorial power
* totalitarian one party state
* embrace of political violence as a means to silence opposition
* strong opposition to Marxism, liberalism, conservatism
* radical nationalism
* nationalist economic policy through protectionist schemes

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism#Definitions

What about a group of employees collectively organizing and protesting non-violently against an internal board at a privatized company is exactly fascist?
Microsoft is changing lately.
Thirdly, let's do away with the idea that government is apolitical.

There’s also no fighting in the war room!
Nothing about this has anything to do with the word fascist.
Having the option to rent is a gateway to having the government own all property? You're going to have to explain your logic a bit, because so far your position sounds ridiculously wrong.
> I am reasonably confident that Google does not dip into GA data for its own purposes

I'm glad that you're reasonably confident (you're even confident enough that you're willing to expose your users to it without their consent!)

I don't share your confidence even a little.
I love Pop!_OS. I have used Gentoo, Ubuntu and Arch in the past 10 years. I ended up with Antergos packaged version of Arch with a bunch of personal tweaks. I tried different distro every now and then but always ended disappointed.

My only needs for distros are to install softwares I use and run them. It turns out to be significantly hard, none of the distros do that without glitches, screen tearing and inconsistency across GUI frameworks. Surely I can tweak them to my liking, but the rabbit hole goes very deep until it comes to a satisfying result.

Pop!_OS is the first OS that stay out of the way, I barely notice the existence of OS, and neither do I want to tweak it, and that is the way I want from a distro. The workspace arranging and switching is a nice touch, making it feel like home for tiling window manager users, coming from i3wm, xmonad or whatsnot.

I don't have any obsession with distros. I want one that works. Pop!_OS provides by far the closest experience I get.

People have been giving buildings and endowments for hundreds of years. It is not illegal to give buildings and money for the endowments. What these folks did was run a scam on the university.
Of course people are still suing. And in many countries governments are continuing to sue as well.

As an adult learner, you will never get far simply by listening and interacting. You need listening and interacting, plus intensive vocab memorization and a good modicum of grammar study.

In some ten years of being married to my Japanese wife, speaking as much as possible, and consuming Japanese entertainment (movies, music), I got pretty good at what you might call "household Japanese". That's it. I would forever be stuck at that stage if I didn't embark on intensive study.

Amend Prop 13 to allow tax increase of up to 10% per year on rental properties. Houses will flood the resale market as owners try to avoid the taxes, driving down housing prices. Prop 13 wasn’t intended as a giveaway to rent seekers, and yet it’s made it crazy for anyone to sell if they can rent. That needs to be reversed.
Agreed; for something that managed to become the de-facto solution for Python package installation, pip always felt surprisingly unreliable to me.

My solution at a small company, where we couldn't waste time with this crap, was to vendor everything: when a developer updated the requirements.txt, they would also install the packages in a project directory (using "pip install -r requirements.txt -t ./dependencies") and commit that. That way, the rest of the process (CI, packaging, etc) could just checkout the repo, set PYTHONPATH=./dependencies and ignore pip completely.
I don't think that settlement applies to this. The OEM part of that lawsuit, from my recollection, hinged on the fact that Microsoft's OEM licenses required that the OEM limit the percentage of computers they sold without a Windows OS pre-installed. I don't remember there being anything about how OEMs use their APIs.

I think it would be perfectly fair for Microsoft to require OEM licensees to not use that feature for shitware installations. I can't see how that would fall afoul of antitrust or related regulations. Maybe I'm wrong though, that was a while ago and it wasn't my specialty when I practiced law.
Why is that legal?
I completely agree with you. I’m just commenting on the fact that these people should not be let off the hook just because they donate a building.
It might of made a nice check for one of those endowments, scholarship funds, or private (as in non-public) grants that make university administrators quite happy.

It was bad enough with the fucking Bixby button that can't be disabled on my Samsung S8 Active. Hearing about the S10 solidifies that my next phone will absolutely not be a Samsung. Which is a shame since the hardware is otherwise great.
"No one can sleep well until the U.S. massively revamps its nuclear triad and either Japan or Europe create their own highly independent nuclear response capability. The future of humanity is currently relying on a single point of failure and it may already be too late."

Both the UK and France have a completely independent nuclear response.

"What is so worrying about China's massive military build up is that there's no benign explanation. China has long had enough conventional power to defend itself and more than enough nuclear weapons to hold up its side of MAD."

Then there is even less explanation for the USA spending many times more on their military.

"It really just looks a lot like the king of China is preparing to start a war. It seems like in the best case he is preparing to take Taiwan and in the worst case he's planning to take all of Asia while perhaps his ally, the king of Russia, takes Europe."

None of these countries have kings.

"he simple fact is that if these two dictators can figure out how take out the U.S. then there's nothing stopping them from taking over the entire world. The giant has been sleeping since it declared victory in the cold war decades ago."

There is plenty to stop these. Russia is a waning power, with demographics working against it, and a regionally unimportant economy (smaller than Italy, which is also not going to take over the world). China, whilst growing fast, does not have the capability to project power and has a number of internal problems. This is all without mentioning it's rivals in the area, Japan, which is re-arming to a degree, and India, which is also well on the way to being a major economic and military power, if a few years behind.
There is no hook or wrong doing in giving a building. It benefits a lot of people. These folks actually did something illegal. Grouping people who actually gave to the university with people who paid a scam artist is wrong.
The banner specifically suggested upgrading to a new version of IE among other choices, so I don't see a problem there. Especially with the randomized order of suggested browsers, this is basically as good-faith as it gets.

I don't like the Chrome monoculture, but it's a different and unrelated issue. IE monoculture was even worse, and it had to die - I just wish the lessons from that weren't forgotten so easily.
What law would it break?
I'm not justifying anything, I'm making an observation. I don't hold any Tethers nor do I have any intention to do so. I'm absolutely not saying Tether is "not as bad as a bank".

However, as far as a cryptocurrency goes, Tether obviously works even when it's only backed by fractional reserves. Remember, most cryptocurrencies are backed by nothing.

> It only lost 30% of my money so far!

If I held any Tether, I could exchange them right now for dollars almost one to one. That's been true for most of the time of Tether's existence. The peg worked even when it wasn't clear whether Tether had any money whatsoever.
Even in cities like SF and Seattle where it can be dense (in the city proper) it's still not quite dense enough with good enough transit systems to promote walking to 100% of your destinations. You usually have to Lyft/Uber most of the way still.

Los Angeles recently got the Citizen App. I was excited at first to be better informed. Then I realized... perhaps it's better I don't get a notification every time something happens within a 10 block radius. The world around me started to seem more dangerous, and that isn't helping anyone.
Why not? A private university has no obligation to run its admissions program they way you think it should.

The reason there is a crime here is because the universities were the victims of fraud, not because the law mandates fairness in admissions.
In Canada we have a fairly modern constitution (it's only 40-ish years old, very new, comparably). It starts out with 'freedom conscience, religion and association' etc..

This is because historically, the #1 thing by far that authoritarians are concerned with is stomping out the opposition. People 'gathering' to discuss 'political ideas' that challenge the status quo are really why the KGB etc. existed. Most armies in the world exist to suppress their own people (FYI it's why the US Army cannot be 'deployed' on US soil).

In that context, it's a very, very dangerous thing to start blocking people from the financial system for political views.

Yes, we can block Nazis and ISIS. FYI I still don't know why we allow Communists to exist after the reality of the last century, but hey, they don't get many votes so there's that.

But this is pragmatically a very, very slippery slope. The slipperiest of all ropes.

The bar for financial transactions is much higher than for Twitter and FB.

This kind of stuff could blow up into a pop culture war, where every corporation and every teenager with an Instagram account will be calling for banning this or that for whatever reason. It's doubly hard when everyone thinks they are acting for the 'social good'.

Let's actually try to be tolerant here.
If this was Huawei it'd be called a backdoor.

But if Tesla is aware that certain parts of the road are more likely to cause incidents and they haven't communicated that. Well sounds to me like that would be criminally negligent.

Er, actually that's just it. It's (to put it mildly) eccentric to think otherwise.
We just switched from js to ts a couple months ago and it's been nice having the familiar oop paradigms to write large applications. As a superset of js, I think it makes sense for all js developers to get a grasp of ts, as it only provides more power and organization at the cost of being more strict than js. Plus, all your js code still runs under the typescript compiler.
That point wasn't in defence of systemd.
While I appreciate your sentiment, and would describe myself as a pacifist as well, I am unable to say that self-defense is unethical. However, even in 10th grade, when we first entered Afghanistan, I found the concept of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq appalling, unjustifiable, expensive, unproductive, and without a way out. Nearly two decades later and that all seems to be true.

That said, I wouldn't find myself saying "don't retaliate" if there was an actual force striking the country.

Being unable to categorically rule out self defense, springing from/combined with, being unable to control others means that we may need to defend ourselves, and if we must, we should be capable.

I don't know if I could work for the military, directly or as a contractor, but I'm not ready to say that every member in uniform and every contractor is amoral for doing so.

Anyway, my point is even if you convinced your entire country to never take up offensive arms, would you be able to also convince everyone else to as well? Would you be willing to tell your countrymen not to take up defensive arms?
Epic has HAD plenty of time to work out making their market more compelling. One of the most frustrating things about it is how many YEARS they've had and how little effort has gone into it during this time.

I'm a VR dev by trade and a gamer by (nearly exclusive) hobby. I'm well deep into Epic and always will be. And it makes me angry. They're intelligent guys and the Unreal engine is fantastic, but the anti-consumer decisions they've made over the last few years have been very frustrating.

The ability to search is a particular sore point. Unless you know the exact name of what you're looking for, you're going to be unsuccessful, and the community have been screaming about this for literal years.
Chinese Family Reportedly Paid $6.5M for Spot at Stanford
Housing is such a big problem. And a collective thing.

The key to solving it is to make sure everyone is focused on affordable housing.

Once you got a impactful part of society focused on something else, for example extracting rent - you've lost.

That's why Germany managed to create a working, affordable housing system after ww2.

And that's why Israel, in it's early years, managed to do the same, and offer affordable housing to everyone,while working under dire economic situation.
That's just the SDKs. It won't help when the robot stops working because there are no more servers.
2014 Demoulas Market Basket Protests [1].

15,000 un-unionized employees in New England walked off their family-owned supermarket jobs after a board-flip and resulting capitulation of existing (family owned) leadership. Customers joined forces with the employees en-masse. The company is an icon and in many ways a prime mover in the area due to their intense real-estate investment strategy.

This multi-billion dollar business was brought to its knees in mere months. Shelves were empty, customers were taping competitor receipts onto the doors, it was doomsday. MA and NH attorneys general got involved after the new corporate CEO's threatened to fire 15,000 people. It was chaos.

And it worked. The board sold the company to the CEO they fired for $1.5b and everything was back to normal within a day or two.

I reject this - if we want admission in the US to be entirely wealth based and Oligarchic we should just buy that concept whole-hog. Many of us (I hope?) believe that scholarships that allow smart people coming from bad backgrounds to succeed are worth their cost[1] so clearly the ability to make use of your education is part of our general societal motivation to give someone one.

[1] There are lots of scholarships, grants and other things out there, many go to people who don't need them and there are issues with the system both on that end and with regards to the cost for an education - please ignore those and just focus on the concept of financial aide to an intelligent driven student who genuinely needs it to pay fair value to get an education in terms of reimbursing all expenses given to give this student an education and nothing else.

So don't blame the company whose claiming that their car can "autopilot" under all conditions.

Instead blame the road. Interesting take.
It's just a different model. It's hard to explain exactly why, but it works - though it's definitely not what most people are used to. Give it a shot! Though I'd recommend trying it out on Plan 9 itself, where the applications are designed around it, before settling your doubts for good.

In the future there will be three jobs: artists, engineers, and sellers. Artists will design and create the products but they’re at the top of the pyramid. Next you have sales for people who don’t have the technical or creative skills but who know how to hustle. Then you have the people who are going to implement the ideas of the artist and give sales something to sell. Insofar as CS is how we build with information I see this as the biggest class and see no oversupply, only oversupply of unqualified talent.
I think it depends. It does protect from overcomplicated designs that never come to fruition in accordance with Gall’s Law (See Googles Omega). And nobody will care how much extra debt you saved down the line if company seizes to exist because it was outpaced by competition so there’s definitely some trade offs to be made.

The last part is more of a problem with hard maintenance work being unappreciated compared to launching new shiny shit which is entirely different can of worms.
