It's also safer than buying it off the streets (aside from dealing with gang members), there is no telling what you are buying (they probably don't know either).

While it's true that everyone mistrusts each other. Sellers are also competing with each other to offer the best products with the best prices, putting a huge amount of effort to build the best feedback ratings. A world away from gangs using extreme violence to increase turnover (you would think that factors into the priorities). I'd feel safer buying from DreamMarket than I would Ebay.
> All of our tools having silos of data and only having difficult to implement one-to-one integrations seems broken- it does not feel like it has to be this way as part of the nature of the software.

The problem is completely self-inflicted and caused by greed. It isn't difficult to make software interoperable - you actually have to work hard to make it non-interoperating. Which is precisely what aforementioned companies did by creating data siloses exporting just tightly-controlled APIs, guarded by ToSes preventing interop from happen organically. SaaS companies broke interoperability on purpose.

One can be xenophobic against a nationality without being racist against a race that happens to be predominant in the said country. You don't have to be racist against asians (incl. Japanese and Taiwanese) to be xenophobic to the Chinese. Parent only provided for proof against racism - not xenophobia, which is why I noted the difference. I am not commenting on the absence or presence of either racism/xenophobia in this particular case: I'm only noting an important difference.
Apple looks to acquire Intel's German phone modem business, report says
It's tough, I give security awareness trainings myself and I completely agree with what you're saying. However, that's a lot of information to give to a group of new employees that can span any department and technical understanding.

I actually was talking today with a customer during a logical assessment about if I talked about downloading malware in the training. I dedicate an entire section to downloading documents, but I don't really give people the information you're talking about. I tell them how to avoid ever having to download anything, and if they must do it, how to try and do it properly. All of this is ended with the process on how to report incidents because eventually something bad will happen.

As a company you kind of expect this to be solved at a number of layers. Endpoint management should hopefully help resolve this issue. Restricting web access where it makes sense can help. Sec Awareness Training helps keep people aware. Etc, etc, etc. You hope your controls are what save you from incidents, because there is no way you can effectively train your entire company on security topics to a degree that they can make good, security conscious decisions. That said, many of these SAT's are really just checking compliance requirements, because thats the real need. I put my own training together starting with what I know needs to be covered for compliance (pii handling, passwords, acceptable use policy, common threats, security incident response reporting, etc). Anything else that makes it in is purely because I have extra time and I know it to be important.
"To do that pointless intermediate step [converting a router's IP address to its MAC address], you need to add ARP (address resolution protocol), a simple non-IP protocol whose job it is to convert IP addresses to ethernet addresses."

Well, technically, ARP is how every IP address is converted to a MAC address. If the IP address is not local (determined by the address, the host's own address, and the subnet mask), the host ARPs for the router interface; if it is local, it ARPs for the destination address.

"They're nowadays almost inseparable. It's hard to imagine a network interface (except ppp0) without a 48-bit MAC address, and it's hard to imagine that network interface working without an IP address."

Well, technically, it's not: CAN (11-bit "address"/priority/identifier thingy), ZigBee (16-bit? 64-bit? I dunno.), Bluetooth, etc.

In case you're wondering, there is a long tradition of these kinds of rants. Everything would be perfect if the IETF had done X instead of Y, if FOO had happened instead of BAR, if Steve Deering had tripped over his own wineglass model and received a traumatic brain injury (or not tripped over the wineglass and not received the brain injury; I'm not clear on that).

There's even people who argue we should have gone with the OSI protocols from the start, although they are literally evil cultists who prefer the worst possible option. (Wait, why does that sound appealing?)

I'm not the person you replied to, but is this supposed to be a gotcha? I assume the answer would be zero. But if you accept that the criminal justice system makes mistakes (between 100k-200k in current prison population per https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10940-018-9381-1) then it's obvious it's better to be able to have reversible punishments. Unless you are suggestion the complete abolition of incarceration for all crimes?
NoSQL products like DynamoDB, Cassandra, Redis, MongoDB etc have all been growing massively over the last few years as companies move to an increasingly multi-technology mix.

I don't think anybody is advocating to force end users to do anything, but we can certainly regulate businesses who profit of harmful products.

Sugar taxes, smaller cupsizes, transparent information about the dangers of consumption, and so on are all fairly modest ways to set the right incentives.

And when it comes to companies behaving in irresponsible ways, for example if it turns out they ran disinformation campaigns, or hid important information about breaches from the public, then I think from time to time it's fair to bring out the hammer and hit them with substantial fines.

It can absolutely not be the case that Facebook violates user privacy, is aware of it up to the very top, and the next day the stock price soars by billions of dollars because evidently the market doesn't take our ability to correct this behaviour seriously.

I live in Seattle, and have for years. I’ve lived in several different cities in the Northeast, Midwest, and South.

King County has one of the highest minimum wages in the United States. There are several organizations giving out clean needles in King County. We are building new housing at a very rapid rate and many areas of the county were upzoned just this year so we can build even more housing.

To me your comment is asking for us to do more of what we are already doing, even though what we are doing is barely slowing the growth of homelessness. There is no amount of taxation on businesses the city, county and state can impose that will provide a home for everyone that needs it. This approach will not produce positive change.

In the situation described in the article, the manager had gone to the CIO but CIO refused to help them.

"The CIO admitted that he had been approached and explained that he had informed the VP that IT already had a project with SAP to deliver what the VP needed. “Yes, but that won’t be ready for me to use for three years, and I need something today,” retorted the VP."

The manager had a valid and valuable reason ("increased revenue $1M per month") to require a service that CIO and their organization was unable to provide in a reasonable timeframe, but other companies on the market were.
> [...]throttle limiters, devices that interpret someone slamming on an accelerator as a mistaken attempt to stop[...]

If there's a perceived need to install that sort of device the driver in question simply shouldn't be driving.

Installing this sort of thing is just a recipe for disaster, now they'll cause some horrible accident on a highway instead as they legitimately slam the accelerator on an on-ramp, which the car will then auto-translate to slamming on the brakes.
The non-blocking observational capabilities will also be severely curtailed. Network requests won't be observable without permission from each host that the extension monitors.
Also the moon provides tides. Which meant that the first billion years of wet Earth, every grain of sand on every beach was a little chemical laboratory of wet/dry, sun/shade, hot/cold and with local conditions of pH and salinity. An organic chemistry lab for trying to invent life.

Without the moon it would have just sat stagnant.
I strongly disagree. There is pretty much no chance that every ad blocker and every other extension isn't going to widely request that new permission, because without it you can't get the data you need to maintain adblock lists or do more advanced detection (ie Privacy Badger).

On the current discussion thread, Chrome devs say:

> The webRequest API's ability to observe requests is foundational for extensions that modify their behavior based on the patterns they observe at runtime.

And in this article, they say:

> when extension developers are given the choice between capability and security, the vast majority of developers choose capability.

So the argument that hiding observation requests behind a permission means that they are "severely curtailed" is just plain wrong. Most extensions (including ad blockers) will still request these permissions as wildcards across all hosts, and most users will still grant them as wildcards across all hosts.

Per-domain permissions for the blocking WebRequest API would be great (that's a change I would broadly support), and if Chrome devs honestly believed that per-domain permissions were an adequate user protection against malware, they'd look for ways to implement per-domain permissions with the blocking API, rather than deprecating the entire thing.

The Twitter post you link claims that's impossible, I don't see why. That would be a good thing for someone from Chrome to explain in either the massive developer thread that's been going on for months, or maybe in the article that complains about how much "confusion" users and developers have, instead of asking devs to blindly take their word.
Where did you get this info from? That link says nothing about a Microsoft and Apple collaboration.

Unfortunately that's the problem with getting any phone via a cell provider. You are typically beholden to them in some fashion for a few months.

Well they too need clicks. Set the right inventive (people more likely click bait links than more sound/dry ones) and it will either go that way or lose out to another org that does.

It's like sitcoms with laugh tracks. Everyone you ask hates them, but if you ask people how much they enjoyed/would rewatch/would recommend/... a certain show they consistently give higher ratings to an episode with vs without canned or study laughter.
I would bet against any unified European action based on recent history and bet on "generally taking no action and leaving China relations to the member countries." This will almost certainly play to China's advantage as e.g. voters in France will ask why they aren't trading from China while Italy and Greece are benefiting from it.

Germany (the most powerful country in the EU) is particularly benefiting from trade with China, which also doesn't bode well.

I would love for it to turn out otherwise though.

I'm not a doctor, but I once did a college report on Optical Coherence Tomography a long time ago.

The body scatters light. Just like the body scatters sound. Maybe sometime in the future we will have precision devices that can access every frequency of electromagnetism and sound waves to observe and manipulate every cubic millimeter inside a person's body. But that technology doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon.
No, manifest v3 extensions will only be able to observe requests for specific hosts, with permission from each host.
> "Bridging is still, mostly, hardware based and defined by IEEE, the people who control the ethernet standards. Routing is still, mostly, software based and defined by the IETF"

I disagree, the dataplane of each is usually hardware and the control plane of each is usually software. I think the dismissal of things like broadcast learning, ARP, and even DHCP to an extent, leads to the confusion.

> You know these "IP" headers are nonsense because the DHCP server has to open a raw socket and fill them in by hand; the kernel IP layer can't do it.

What the kernel IP layer exposes has little to do with whether something is a "real" IP packet. Under the guise of security anything that wasn't UDP or TCP bound to an OS configured IP interface isn't part of kernel IP sockets anymore. This historical conflation of IP = place to bind layer 4 socket is one reason why QUIC is UDP based.
> That doesn't mean that they wouldn't prefer having a managed addiction, and not living on the streets.

Why would it matter what they prefer? The homeless person in the parent post is clearly breaking multiple laws, is a public nuisance and a health hazard. We can optimize society so that people like that are happy or we can optimize society for people who aren't a constant burden on others. There should be intense societal pressure to not do these things. Have you been to Seattle or SF lately? Their homeless problem is out of control compared to places like New York that took a more aggressive and productive stance toward dealing with the homeless.
There are many reasons why people are vegetarian. Environmental, spiritual, ethical, health, digestion issues, etc. So it very much depends on the reason, and on the specifics. Speaking for myself, I'm an ethical vegan and I would probably eat lab-grown meat.

> Note: I don't think this is a great system, and it's pretty obviously a hidden subsidy for the Japanese auto industry, but it does have the helpful side effect of ensuring that almost all cars on the road in Japan are fairly new and have the newest features

I dunno, I live in a province in Canada with no auto industry. We have an inspection every two years, license plate renewals every two years, mandatory insurance at all times. The costs end up being almost identical (I've owned a car in both places). The people I know who have had issues are mostly due to emissions and lack of maintenance - failing to fix a rusted out exhaust line, alignment out, rusted out body, etc. My car in Japan was 16 years old and passed with the minimum fees.

I do know lots of people in Japan who replaced their car just because it got a bit old, but it wasn't because it didn't pass inspection. It was because they thought it wouldn't pass.

Left leaning people want more government regulation and then expect pot legalization with no regulations. Reality doesn't quite work this way.

One of the arguments was that it would being in all sorts of tax dollars that could be used for great things. Tax Dollars=more expensive pot. So from this perspective, it worked as intended, even though many of the supports may not have actually thought it through.

One of those vans with tinted windows would make an awesome camper van. Clearly you would be geographically limited to the UK however if that van was quietly parked up somewhere then nobody would suspect someone was sleeping in it.

A vintage one would be cool too, probably a bit tricky in headwinds with that weight on the top. You could also watch TV pretty well just by watching what other people had on. Shame LCD flatscreens ended this nonsense.

Most people believed the vans were mythical and that they just had a map with a database. The vans - according to some - were fake, just to put fear into people.
That’s a false choice.
An App Store isn’t going to ban a provider that its users want.

> it's easier/quicker for your body to store say fat as fat than carbs as fat, which it will have to transform into fat first.

It's not that simple. Dietary fat doesn't spike insulin levels and that is a primary signal to the body to store excess calories in fat cells. High carb foods tend to spike insulin but to what degree depends on the food.
Human beings are motivated both intrinsically and extrinsically.

Adding support for an activity provides extrinsic motivation for doing something.

Basically, cities get what they pay for. If you pay for homelessness you get it.

That said, I'm not saying we shouldn't help people, but that we should make sure that whatever support we provides guides people towards self sufficiency and not dependence.

“The lessons of history, confirmed by the evidence immediately before me, show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber, ...

It is in violation of the traditions of America.” – FDR 1935
These things take a very, very long time. Consider that IPv6 has been a thing since the late 90's. It is now older than the IPv4 internet was when it started taking off around 1995. IPv6 is it. I very much doubt we will see an IPv7 in our life times, if ever.
