>One drop of blood is going to be very similar to any other in and individual. That's not true when it comes to language data (or many other types of data for that matter).

Why? Please do explain. If you claim that our biology doesn't change at all in one domain, but varies significantly in another, it would be easy to show this scientifically, or more specifically, how this variance is applicable in this context of voice recognition.

Just to take a simple example of blood glucose. Using continuous glucose monitors attached at various sub-cutaneous sites over the body, it is trivial to show how the local glucose is not identical at all sites.
Extensions can be a good thing for sure. But they need to be done right. Hacking out some hurried implementation of extensions is how malware and security advisories happen. It is elitist to suggest that the desires of the 3% trump building a good browser first.

Also, the Internet and most technology happens to break existing workflows. We shouldn't assume disruption is bad if the result is an improved version.
Can you say where you got the figure though, like which source or report?
No, don't buy anything from Muse. Those devices are awful and the firm works (worked?) hard to reduce visibility on the problems for example in their developer forums, instead of working to address the problems. I owned multiple device versions from the Kickstarter forward and they were all universally finicky and shit. The one redeeming feature were the (patented) sensor pads, which can work better than more "traditional" sensor pads. But they dry out and get gross pretty quickly, and also are easily damaged, and it felt like the Muse people really wanted deep down to be in the business of supplying people with fresh new sensor pads like -- badum-psh! -- some kind of subscription. Interestingly, I also used one from a maker event, and it definitely seemed like they had picked the cream of the crop in order to market them better. But the production units were terrible!

> The publisher can absolutely get by with measuring how many people viewed which RSS entries, which this can absolutely deliver.

Wrong. The RSS entries are cached by the aggregators, and the publisher never sees how many people have seen them.

> It seems to me that you're arguing that publishers -- or in practice, ad networks -- are entitled to track the browsing habits of specific individuals, even if (theoretically) anonymized.

No. I'm saying that AMP takes less control away from publishers than RSS does, and all the complaints are about how AMP takes control from publishers to ruin the web, yet nobody here has complained about how RSS ruined the web. In either case, the system controlling the cache tracks everything.
I care! What did y'all get? Was it tasty?
You can take any capability and stretch it out to some absurd extreme. What if apt-get whatnot trashed your entire computer? What if buses started hunting pedestrians for sport? It's a line of inquiry that prioritizes handwringing over insight.

It still doesn't solve the problem that you could presume Satoshi is dead, and bid a million dollars. Odds are better than the startup lottery. I guess there has to be a service that monitors if someone is brute forcing the system.

This is amazing. This is the most comprehensive write-up on software product development I've ever read. By anyone. And it's the only post on product development I've ever read in my entire life that has specific examples that aren't fiction.

I think I've wasted the last 10 years of my life. Let's see 20 minute standup meeting every work day for the last 9 years. That's 20 * 5 * 48 * 9 / 60 = 720 hours of my life wasted in standup meetings.
My argument was that AMP pages have a second url bar under the real url bar OR they have a fake url in the real url bar (see the new signed "Real URL" AMP pages system where the real address will be a google cdn url but the browser will instead show a different url then where it fetched it.

I'd like to add an often overlooked problem with open parking: bikes that are left there forever to rust and rot.
i.e. it’s like a slot machine where you pay $0.05 and then get E[Y] = $1.25 back (in carbonbucks). Sounds like a great deal vs. 4% loss (and a fast way to pay off carbon debt).

How does this compare to the lifecycle net efficiency of other methods of carbon capture/abatement, e.g. wind turbines, nuclear solar panels/farms, EVs, afforestation? Any references for such estimates?
One aspect of this is that it incentivizes Denial-of-Service attacks. It would allow any attacker to directly convert a DoS attack into money. Imagine that the 5 largest ISPs in the United States decided to surveil Bitcoin usage on their network and and record a list of probable addresses for their users (BTC has no transport encryption in its P2P layer). Then, all 5 decide to collude and block the Bitcoin P2P protocol for a week. How much BTC would they earn by doing this? It's a contrived example, but DoS is a common weakness in cryptocurrency protocols in addition to being fairly easy to execute in a typical network context to individual targets. In effect, instead of authorizing transactions based on ECDSA, you're relying upon key liveness which is a much weaker thing to rely upon and would incentivize large amounts of fraud and abuse.
Do they give you a way to track conversions? e.g. if someone signed up to a newsletter or bought a product, and where that user came from?

The app patching should be done as part of your standard CI/CD process, with appropriate control gates managed by humans at the Dev versus QA versus Prod environment interfaces. But that should really just be a button click, after human discussion has occurred and the appropriate level of consensus and approval is given.

Containers should be patched in a similar fashion. But the tooling might be somewhat different for containers versus apps.

You also need a CI/CD process to patch the OS on your servers, but again the tooling might be different again for OS versus containers versus apps.

"if (x = y)" is also a legal valid use case (it sets x to y, and then tests whether it's nonzero), but that doesn't stop compilers from complaining if you write it, on the grounds that it's most likely a mistake. They should do the same with use-after-move. There could then be some workaround or annotation to disable the warning if you really did want a use-after-move, as there is for the warning I mentioned (adding extra parentheses).

That might have also been a factor. They'll never openly state the real reason so we can only guess.
"Why wouldn't you?"

The spring/summer weather hovers between 25-33 Celsius with 80%+ humidity. I like arriving at my destinations not covered in sweat. When it's not brutally hot and sunny....it's raining (this island gets twice as much rainfall as Seattle). And we are regularly hit by typhoons. You can drive a car in a weak typhoon. Good luck riding a bike during one.

The terrain is very hilly here, with many roads cutting across the island having elevation changes of ~70m. Attacking hills like that might be a great workout but I sure as hell wouldn't want to do it after a trip to my favorite ramen shop or tempura restaurant (both of which are at sea level, down the hill from me).

Finally....I'm a speed freak and a gearhead, and the experience of operating a powerful car, daily, is its own reward. I wouldn't be caught dead on a bicycle, but I also wouldn't be caught dead driving a low-powered commuter vehicle shitbox.

Climate and geography are major factors which I think many Americans ignore because most tech workers either live somewhere with mild weather, or live somewhere with flat, bland geography (most of the country, really).
Not quite true based on current roadmaps. If BFR pans out in the next 5 years, it could pretty easily launch a significantly faster probe that would pass the Voyager probes in about a decade (with a gravity assist from Jupiter and/or the sun). This was discussed in conjunction with catching Oumuamua [1].

However, if we're stuck with the launch capability of Falcon Heavy, it would take multiple launches with in-orbit docking/refueling to do it. Still possible in a 10ish year horizon, but too expensive to be worth it.

That quote is about markets, not governments. It's not great to mix up those two like the parent did. Governments are moving to mitigate climate change. Not all of them at the same pace, and none at the optimal pace, but things are certainly improving on the government front.
To be that guy... forget CORS. All localhost servers have a pinned public key. The zoom.us site has the private key. It passes along a signed request. The local server then validates the signature! How is that so hard?

Oh wait, I just described CSRF!!
Zoom, here is your egg. Now promptly smash it on your face; thank you.
For dealing with milder adhesives, try peanut butter or vegetable oil. Let it sit overnight, then wipe off. The only reason for considering peanut butter is that it doesn't drip off while the oil does its work.

I'm not averse to "chemicals" per se, but I like to minimize the number of different specialty liquids I have to find a place for in my house.
How would DNS rebinding work? I thought DNS rebinding only works if there's some sort of authority that's ambient across hostnames (such as whitelisted user IP ranges, or connectivity to a network), which doesn't seem to apply here. If you do have authority that's ambient across hostnames, my thought of how to protect yourself is to check the Host header.

XSS is essentially completely separate from CORS and CSRF. XSS is a bad vulnerability, worse than CSRF, and you can't expect any type of CSRF prevention to protect against XSS.
I was thinking the same. Realistically, I believe the only way you could do that on the client would be JS. But if they added that, it would change all their feel good marketing about no JS...

I'm not sure I understand. From a safety point of view I'd be concerned locking my bike to something that is literally designed to be moved on a flat bed.. From a space optimization point of view, why would you put a bike rack in one of the only places you can park a motor vehicle while there is almost endless amounts of space around for bicycle parking/storage(relatively at least)?
What I have learned about crypto is that there people that understand it well. And those people are not random strangers, they are security experts.

And even then if you found good solid well supported security advice from reputable sources but they are 10 years old... You are still insecure.

Therefore modern up to date information from reputable sources is the only true way to stay secure. Its a running battle not a static one.

I feel you have assumed I meant something entirely different.
That doesn't take inflation into account though. You'd expect it to go up 3-4% in $ terms even if sales were the same. That the number is actually flat over the last 4 years does mean sales are down a bit.

The $6.05B 2016 figure would be about $6.45B in 2019 dollars.

Box office trends have been shifting over the last decade or so... the big blockbusters (superhero movies especially) are bigger and bigger, but the mid-budget stuff that was a mainstay of the 90s and early 2000s (think stuff like Will Ferrell and Adam Sandler movies) is getting squeezed pretty hard.

To give one look at the distribution.... last year the 100th best performing movie did ($21.7M / $700M) = 3.1% of the #1 movie.

In 2010, ($26.5M / $415M) = 6.38%

In 2000, ($18.7M / 260M) = 7.19%

> C# certainly never worked like that.

> together with everyone’s favorite auto/manual reset events, mutexes, and semaphores.

When I'm not sending messages, I prefer lock() keyword. A syntactic sugar over Monitor class. Unlike events and semaphores, it's not a wrapper around an OS sync.primitive, but implemented on the VM level. Pulse and TryEnter APIs are nice.

> incredible job updating basically every single API in the BCL for async

The important job was done much earlier then that. Before .NET 1.1 MS decided the fundamental IO class, Stream, needs async API, exposed BeginRead/EndRead, and the rest of them. That's how updated to async-await that fast, they are thin wrappers over the underlying async API which was in standard library for years already, tested and debugged. Few people used them before because callback hell was bad.
I use Lineage OS (https://lineageos.org) with the cameras taped. It's not perfectly secure, but it's the best tradeoff I can make at the moment. Here's a few better options I want to switch to in the future:

Graphene OS, a security-hardened Android ROM: https://grapheneos.org

Librem 5, probably the ideal solution: https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/
Just look at the bullet-point features:

+ Does not use Android or iOS. The Librem 5 comes with the mobile version of our FSF-endorsed operating system PureOS by default, and is expected to be able to run most GNU+Linux distributions.
+ CPU separate from baseband, isolating the blackbox that the modem may represent and allowing us to seek hardware certification of the main board by the Free Software Foundation.
+ Hardware Kill Switches for camera, microphone, WiFi/Bluetooth, and baseband.
+ End-to-end encrypted decentralized communications via Matrix over the Internet.
+ We also intend the Librem 5 to integrate with the Librem Key security token in the future.

That season (Season 2) gets a lot of flack for being “boring”, but I’m of the opinion that it really showed well what kind of depths people will go to when the working class gets hollowed out or feels boxed in. I live near a major port and the volume of containers that goes through there is mind boggling. Seems more than plausible that a decent amount of contraband gets through every day, just by the sheer scale of the operation alone - nevermind a vast (or even small) conspiracy.
Shallow copy is the general concept. Move semantics is a special case where the unique ownership is enforced. Here is simple example of the idea:

Widget::Widget(Widget&& w) {
this->ptr = w.ptr; // shallow copy
w.ptr = nullptr; // nullify the source
}

Hard agree.

That post was both an answer to the OP's question and a refutal of the idea that the only way here was evil.

I think it's important for people to recognize an echo chamber and to realize its ramifications. At the same time, I agree that it's important for employees to understand how their products/actions will be perceived (even those of us who don't work on projects that get written about here).

Climate change is the result of (mostly) unregulated profit-seeking. Not merely a lack of worry about long-term effects of our actions. It isn't accidental...we knew decades ago that there were consequences, but a few people with a lot of money bought policies ignoring the problem (from willing politicians worldwide).

There is a profit motive behind our climate catastrophe, not "oops, I forgot to turn off the climate change machine when I left the house".
