I primarily used a OnePlus 3 (non-3T) and a Nexus 4. The OnePlus 3 seemed to have a very active ROM community.

I tried many of the well-known ROMs: Lineage, Paranoid, Ressurection.

I also tried many of the OnePlus-specific ROMs, that were typically maintained by only one or two devs each.

Most of the features worked perfectly fine on both phones. But the deal-breakers were often the simple things: GPS (w/o downloading extra geolocation database services) and Bluetooth were the kickers for me. These services were consistently spotty across every ROM I tried.

My experience is as of a couple years ago. I have since moved away from the ROM scene, simply because I do not have the time to deal with this sort of stuff anymore.
As a AMD stock holder I have not forgot. My opinion still stands.
I have not seen a time I can recall where AMD has been competitive in every vertical against INTEL, not only in PRICE, but node, IPC, single core performance/multicore core performance, and manufacture scaling of several core cpus.

If you count by shares, yes. But his stock gets more votes, so he owns 60% of the votes.
A contact list would, like what likely existed for every previous reunion in GPs high school since before 2010. My schools periodically reach out to update your contact info for their alumni roster. I bet GP never gave the school their contact info after graduation rather than this being a facebook only situation (unless it was just organized by a handful of alums and not tied with the school itself).

There isn't a passive tool that would solve this other than getting people's email or mailing address, and that's absolutely fine since if you wanted to go to these reunions and be invested in these events, you can send an email to the school and get yourself on this contact list.
Companies that think of their Privacy Policy as a “Legal” or “Compliance” function will have their lawyers write it, and it will be incomprehensible to users. That’s Legal’s job: to write documents for judges and other lawyers to read.

I’d argue that companies should think of their privacy policy as not a legal document but as a product feature, and let product managers (or whoever is responsible for feature ideas) write them. The audience then would be the user and the wording would more likely be understandable. Most companies’ product teams are better equipped to articulate the benefits and trade-offs to end users.
If however, you have vested interests in the private prison industry and benefit from keeping the drug-trade illegal and on the streets it is a very good thing..
I have a similar workflow as well. Although I do like when Google makes those AI highlight movies.
I’ll be passing on Google’s new 2FA for logins on iPhones and iPads. Here’s why
I'm glad I'm not the only one!

From the G release, "These changes will let you easily choose where photos and videos are stored across products." I want 1 product, one place for all my stuff. Isn't that what Google One (https://one.google.com) was supposed to be? From their promo copy "Your storage includes Drive, Gmail, and original quality images in Google Photos."
I think it's aimed at people who do specialised tasks such as video editing without the extra expense of moving to HEDT hardware.

Plus, these chips with two CCXs also has double the PCIe lanes 40! So a number of NVMe drives, GPUs, 10GbE etc... can run together without fighting over lanes (and that's without double bandwidth of PCIe 4.0).

It does still feel weired calling 16 core/ 32 thread CPU with 72MB of cache 'consumer'.
I switched from KeePass to KeeWeb because of the user interface and Google Drive integration. KeeWeb is an open source cross platform Electron app.
I'd like to learn more about this. Got a link?
> It is not acceptable to have a privacy policy intended for ordinary people if it's not also intended to be understood by ordinary people.

I agree, but by extension this is also true for all laws and legal documents. The fact that world still works with this situation (the laws which people are supposed to abide by are not really understandable to those same people) doesn't mean we don't have a problem to solve here.
No, not really. The government has been stacked with pro-Beijing people, who have all the executive and legislative power. The only choice people have is to vote for new representative, from a slate of options picked out by the CCP.

That was the reason for the 3-month long '14 protests. You can see their effect today.
WHAT?!? Thats awesome news
True, but an airliner full of fuel might also cause an explosion and fire. Those are flying over highly populated cities, and we trust the industry to retain control of them and set them down safely.

The kinetic energy of a 30 metric ton datacenter moving at 9.8 km/s is 1,440,600,000,000 joules. That's a bit more energy than 344 tons of TNT and a bit more than 12,000 gallons of gasoline equivalent. That's actually much less than the energy embodied in a 747 with full tanks. (If I've calculated correctly.)
> Problem: The Firebase Android client library is proprietary, meaning FOSS apps can not use it. Apps that do not comply are reported to the user as "using too much battery".

This is simply not true. These two points don't even make a coherent argument, as it's plainly discernible that lots of apps don't use the Firebase Android client library but aren't "reported to the user".

Furthermore, "using too much battery" is not what the notification says. It simply says "is using battery", and even this is avoidable.
My work life does not involve recruiters in any way.

Thanks to this integration, I can just run leave the Google Drive desktop sync client running and have a local backup of all my photos.
On distributed communications networks – Paul Baran (1962) [pdf]
The idea is that you have a meeting of the minds that the document you are signing contains the terms. If you could later argue that you didn't understand it and therefore shouldn't be bound, it would make contracts impossible to uphold.

Though I do think there should be some sort of loosening of the requirements for a contract to be found unconscionable or deceptive.
I use MacOS at home and Windows 10 at work. I find iCloud access from Windows to be pretty awkward. Am I missing something?
If it's not going to be used in production, which a free trial presumably wouldn't be, then you probably don't need a full review of the terms although it would be a good idea to take care of it.
> I don’t see the problem

Facebook entered into a consent decree with the FTC [1]. (Facebook had to do this because it violated promises made to consumers.) Facebook then violated that consent decree. These e-mails may show Mark Zuckerberg--the Chairman, CEO and majority vote holder--complicit in those violations.

One can dig deeper into the privacy and antitrust issues [2], cultural issues and other matters. But at its core, this relates to their flagrantly violating a binding agreement with a federal regulator.

The individual criminal-law analogy would be violating one's parole agreement.

Facebook has 70% of the social media global market share.

Coca-Cola has just 40% of the non-alcoholic beverages global market share.

And as others have pointed out, "don't use Facebook" doesn't solve the problem of all the data they already have on you and will never destroy.
Fascinating! The source of carbon can still be carbon dioxide, in addition to methane.
k8s tends to use a private PKI. I do wonder if we're comparing secure verses insecure solutions though. Nobody ever has TLS issues with swarm, puppet, or aws, or are they just trusting the network?

"We listened to you..." post in 3, 2..
> such guarantees are impossible on any shared medium

Nonsense! My ISP could most certainly sell me a guaranteed minimum speed on their portion of the network at all times of day! In fact, this is precisely how commercial provisioning often works.

Obviously they can't control what happens once traffic leaves their network, but that was never the issue and no one is complaining about that (at least that I'm aware).

They might also offer higher off peak speeds, or charge per unit of data (like water and electric utilities), offer lower off peak pricing, or whatever. That's largely orthogonal to the current issue of rampant false advertising though.

> > Charging more to, or placing time restrictions on, certain classes of customers who consume large quantities is a key part of that strategy.

> You mean like how large ISPs want to throttle and charge video services more?

No, that would be analogous to the electric utility charging you more if you're using the TV vs the dishwasher. I'm not aware of any that do this, and to head off any counter examples I most definitely do not think that such practices should EVER be legal.

Discriminating against customers based on aggregate usage, rate of usage, usage versus time of day, or similar, is completely different than discriminating based on what is done with the service. The first is reasonable, and the second ought to be illegal in all cases as far as I'm concerned.

> It's typically done for a discount... Careful with that assumption, that's exactly what the smart meters are for ...

And I don't think such smart meter usage should be legal - as with this Maine law, it should NEVER be legal to incentivize data collection and sale via promotional offers.

If you're planning to join a remote team in a tech role, wouldn't it be fun to imagine how your future life would look like?
You would wake up in your bed, and walk to a coffee machine, and walk to your laptop, and then...

Would you have a daily standup and what time? Would you write words to a Slack channel, or should you physically stand up on a Zoom call? (meaning, should you have your clothes on at this point)

I asked some remote teams to share their engineering habits in the following categories:

- Daily Standups

- Pair Programming

- ️Agile Software Development

- Continuous Delivery

- Open Source Contributor

- Good For Junior Devs

- Learning & Sharing

I know there's room for the data to grow, so if you're running a remote team, you too can add your engineering culture – add your company to fill in the details: https://remotehub.io/hire-remotely

If you're working in a remote team (well done!), it would be very nice of you to notify your boss. You'll definitely earn some karma points. I think.
It seems rather hard to find a legal way to outlaw the business model.

I wonder whether there's a way to make spying so unprofitable that the business model simply isn't attractive anymore?

Legislation that would force businesses to pay for collecting user data (maybe a tax on user data) might be a start, but I don't see how something like that could be implemented successfully.
> - Emails to anyone using a Google service (I use iCloud)

I found that the best thing you can do is try to convert the people you e-mail to most often (spouse, family, close friend) away from Google to some e-mail provider that values privacy. That way at least (maybe 50% of) your most private e-mails are safe from being analyzed/tracked/monetized :)
Yes, like humans we don't care about CO2, but we depend on creatures that indirectly or directly use it.
> It's Zen 2 that has completely obliterated intel in performance/watt. Which is almost a bigger shock than the AMD taking the performance crown.

Why is this shocking? Zen 2 is 7nm and Intel's latest is at 14nm. It would be a far bigger shock if they didn't beat Intel in performance/watt. Zen 2 vs whatever Intel releases on 10nm in the next ~6-18 months is a much more interesting comparison.
You are right. This caption isn't shown unless you click on the image.

Fascinating! Although chemosynthesis uses CO2, I did not expect Methane to be a carbon source
More importantly GDPR grants statutory rights that cannot be waived by a shrinkwrap agreement. Its only real weakness is that is does not grant a right of private enforcement, and national regulatory agencies are too understaffed to address even a small portion of abuses today.
The people of Hong Kong should have been just as entitled to self determination as any other people, and establishing full democracy and self governance would've been the ideal solution. But China apparently made it clear in the 60s that it would retake the territories with force if Britain tried to do that, so it was forced to remain a territory until handover.
Well, meetup is a good start https://www.meetup.com/topics/entrepreneurship/vn/

Just hit one or two, get in with the local expat crew, and it'll all fall into place from there. Facebook groups sometimes a good way as well. Saigon seems to be the main city for it but Hanoi has crews as well, and they're also spread out somewhat in some of the other cities.
If and when the cost and bandwidth of satellite internet fall to within parameters that make it competitive with fiber optic cable, perhaps.

So maybe not with Starlink, but a bit afterwards?
Exactly. You can't rely on the radiation itself as a deterrent.
Powerful stuff !

In order to see optimum use of those many cores i wish to see.

1. Most used legacy software libraries to incorporate concurrent/parallel algorithms for both CPU and mixed (CPU +IO) load.

2. Some inventive, compact and powerful heat sink design to be implemented in laptop models.
Email wouldn't allow you to effortlessly aggregate the email addresses of everyone, and then to communicate the message out. There's a really large overhead there that doesn't really exist with Facebook.

But nothing is stopping the user from supplying a proxy email address in your textbox where you ask for a non-proxy email address. Sending a test email doesn't tell you whether the user-supplied email address is a proxy email address or a non-proxy email address, since your test email will go through in either case. That's the whole point of a proxy email address instead of a completely fake email address, is that emails sent to the proxy email address will still go through.
I am not convinced any of them need k8s or even containers.

I am convinced many people use these technologies because it is simple and abstracts away the required skill sets to do complex operational tasks but only covers about 85% of those, leaving operation teams with limited skill sets exposed when that other 15% happens.
The law EXPLICITLY prevents that.
Then it's a real shame they haven't paid attention to the documentation for NotificationBuilder, because there's a straightforward solution to the problem they're complaining about.
There was littering, yes. But in 1959 America you generally wouldn't see:

-Mothers supervising their kids as they defecate on a city sidewalk, or in the garbage bin in a busy train station.

-Dead mules left rotting and bloated in the sun for days right beside busy streets, with drinking water flowing nearby.

-Restaurant owners throwing garbage out the front door of their establishment onto the street right in front of the restaurant.

You're relating what I said to your own experience, which is Mad Men-style "littering". Only once you actually go outside your bubble can you understand that humans can do so much worse - and billions do.

I think to find a Western example you'd have to go back to horse and buggy days at least, and possibly to before widespread plumbing (e.g. late 1800's London cholera epidemics, the Thames literally full of shit).

Not all, but part of the outrage is political. A lot of (D) folks are looking for someone to blame for the current political climate. I'll stick my neck out a bit and wager that a lot of news outlets running privacy stories wouldn't think twice about selling their customers data for ad revenue.
Is that unusual for a superpower?

For example, the US government is fighting wars in the Middle East, the aforementioned trade war, internal conflicts between the increasingly radicalized left&right, and to say there's political conflict is a bit of an understatement.
To true up the analogy, they are waiting in a line that's 3 years long.
I am not so sure about it. The contract might contain something substantially adverse to you and still be enforceable. For example, in some EULAs I saw a paragraphs completely forbidding you to compete with any products of the company.
I tried microg's Lineage image on the OnePlus 3. It was probably the most painless ROM I had ever flashed.

The microg project has been fantastic in providing an open mechanism to interface with Google's services. When I first tried it, I believe they did not yet have a working implementation of all the Google services. Some apps complained about Google services, some did not. You still needed to sign into Google though, which might turn some people away.

For those who want to interface with Google on an open-source ROM, microg's image is probably the way for you.
Bravo, everyone on the PC side has great options now, but I feel for Mac "Professionals". Sad they just got straddled with the horrendous over priced and under performing Xeon platform. It boggles my mind why Apple would release a $6k model that will get trounced by these chips for a fraction of the price. I know the expand-ability is what you are buying into, but I imagine 90% of Mac Pro customers could care less about terrabytes of memory or a video solution that improves current vram limits. Add to all of that the gimped performance you are going to get on the Intel parts with the latest security patches.
I'm wondering how this affects Chromebook users? Uploading photos off a USB stick already isn't easy.
I read the Silmarillion when I was 11. It's hardly challenging reading like dense and opaque German philosophy texts tend to be (I am looking at you, Wittgenstein).
Using React hooks with class components
This is an incredibly naive thing to say. I was on a beach resort area controlled by the Zetas a year or so back on a vacation. It was incredibly dirt cheap and everything seemed really nice and peaceful, the town was under control of only one group afterall. Then all of a sudden one evening there was a screaming man pulled out of a building into a street and brutally beaten in front of everyone that was out there. After this ended he was dragged off and everything went back to normal. It was an extremely shocking flash of violence.

Just because it isn't a 'war' so much anymore doesn't mean that the violence that comes with areas being under control of gangs magically goes away.

In the end from a cost perspective it's a lot cheaper to have a productive member of society living on their own than it is to lock someone up for life. You have to weigh the recidivism rate vs. the cost of the program, but there isn't any country in the world with a more expensive criminal justice system than the US. We can definitely do better.
Did I miss where they're charging existing customers more? My account page still shows $99/yr.
It's interesting that Japan also has a conviction rate that exceeds 99%, and Canada has a conviction rate of 97%.
All pesticides are bad in one way or another, what we need to do is invest more in development of gene drives for elimination of more pests. Doublesex gene used by target malaria is similar in most insects, so the same technique can be used to target most of the pests, and dramatically improve the situation.
>How are his staff not just jumping out of windows?

Because everybody has a price, and Facebook knows how to find 'em cheap.
To my knowledge, while this is not the case for all HK citizens, special considerations were given to professionals (at least, medical professionals), who wished to obtain UK citizenship.

It might not have been full citizenship, however.
The most secure network is one that no one uses. Therefore the goal is to make the network as difficult to use as possible.
Perhaps cities should take simple first steps to regulate without overburdening bike/scooter shares. Portland has designated spots in the downtown core that are reserved for car shares (not any specific company but you can't park your personal vehicle there). Maybe one every 4-5 blocks. Why not do the same for bike share?

We have a docked system already but Lime scooters litter the sidewalks all over town. Why not remove a few car parking spots and require scooters be parked there? One spot could hold many scooters and keep them off the sidewalks.
Landlord/employer thing you will have to pull an example as that seems unheard of and an invasion of privacy. Obviously don't have a beer bong in your profile picture, but they aren't going to grab your wrist and make you log in during the interview. Landlord has no business knowing anything about your life beyond whether or not you can pay rent.

All those other situations existed before facebook too, and people still got to reunions, went to church, and talked to their relatives living half a world away. Chances are, these people are signing into facebook with an email address or telephone number, so it's not like facebook is literally all they know unless grandson set up grandpas account (but I bet grandpa still has a landline, forwards nigerian prince emails, and writes letters just fine).
How does this compare to using CouchDB/PouchDB?

(maybe it doesn't, but at first glance it looks similar in a lot of ways to me)
Your first two sentences aren't supported by the rest of your comment because I'm not rejecting the entire article. (I don't disagree with any of that other stuff you wrote.) I'm just criticizing the implicit assumption that medical reversals are necessarily evidence of a mistake.

Indeed, from the second paragraph (emphasis mine):

> Medical reversals are a subset of low-value medical practices and are defined as practices that have been found, through randomized controlled trials, to be no better than a prior or lesser standard of care (Prasad et al., 2013; Prasad et al., 2011).

That is, the authors assert that something is low value if it is later proven to not work.

Never forget Ross. He was railroaded hard over Silk Road. https://freeross.org
Absolutely. Fix the problem, instead of complaining about it or explaining in detail why it can't or shouldn't be fixed.
Yes, but what does that mean?

What does your site define as private information? If the data got sent to you, it's no longer "private," at least in one sense of the word.

Is "selling" information considering "sharing"?

Questions like these are why the legalese of privacy policies needs to be complicated - it's simply ambiguous otherwise.
I’d argue that the vast majority of Americans would struggle to comprehend a basic cell phone contract, auto loan, or mortgage, which we routinely sign. The problem is that people have to pretend to understand/agree with something in order to receive a service. You should not have to agree to a deliberately incomprehensible document as a condition of receiving a service you pay for.
Since none of us knows the experience of death, it's not knowable what effect anesthesia has. Perhaps being numb to the experience makes it worse and not better.
> The writer is not a hypocrite. The organization, however, is.

This is not how how a functioning news room works. That's not how any of this works. You don't check your individuality at the door. A good publication can and should promote well reasoned work, especially if it conflicts with the status quo or view points of other writes in the org.
