I'm sorry, but all I see in your comment is:

"I do not want to defend my stance. My positions are obvious so no explanation is needed from my side"

"I see bias everywhere, but I won't do anything to try to understand how what I see may not be a bias."

"I will attribute intentions to the person I am speaking with and make assumptions about who the person behind the computer is. I will view what (s)he says through that lens that I have chosen to wear. I will not supply any avenue for that person to point out defects in the lens."

"Thanks for trying."

AFAIK France decided to keep permanent DST from 2021. I hope my country (Italy) does the same. We don't center our day around 12:00, it's more like 13:00 or later.
"Gee, Hacker News... I was wondering... Shouldn't it be, that a woman has to consent to getting raped, before she gets raped? It would make more sense to me if a man had to ask first, and then only rape a woman if she says it's okay.

I think rape whistles are counter-intuitive. Why would you sound a rape alarm, when you could have it so that no one gets raped unless they ask for it?

And sometimes, the penis is so small that the woman might not even realize she's being forcibly penetrated by a rapist!

Wouldn't it make sense to only get raped by random strangers if they ask nicely?

For example, if a nun is walking down the street, and different men are directly asking to rape all of her orifices indiscriminately, and they don't pray to Jesus to ask for permission to individually rape her mouth, ears and anus, she might unexpectedly get raped in the vagina too! Heavens to Betsy!

And then, think about how we might visit a rape dungeon, and there could be a rape gang of 50 or even 100 rapists in the rape gang... Oh, what to do, what to do?"

The test is likely to be under-reporting WordPress installations as it stands.

The script seems to detect a WordPress site by looking for a meta generator tag containing WordPress:

https://github.com/tanrax/calculate-wordpress-usage/blob/5aa...

It's pretty common to remove that meta tag — popular WordPress theme frameworks like Genesis do it by default.

A more reliable test would be to look for additional strings in the source that point to the use of WordPress, such as “wp-content” and “wp-includes”.

A faster way that avoids string searches would be to send an HTTP head request to `/wp-login.php` and check for:

Set-Cookie: wordpress_test_cookie

(/wp-login.php doesn't always appear in the root directory and it's not always accessible to all IPs, but that setup is most common).

Sometimes the target site has been rearranged, the link immediately redirects to an unhelpful generic page, and the Googlefuscated link doesn't work in the Wayback Machine.

This is easy enough [for me] to work around with browser developer tools on the desktop, but a PITA on, e.g., iOS, where these are not readily available.

Google could solve the problem without sacrificing telemetry by overriding the context menu for the link with an option to "show original link".

For some perspective on why this matters. If you've never had a serious skin issue it's hard to understand how traumatic it is. I had basal cell carcinoma (a treatable skin cancer) in my early 30's on my nose. The treatment was careful excision of flesh from the affected area. The thing you can't prepare yourself for is how much and how deep the necessary removal is. Imagine a stack of 5 dimes taken out of your nose, and in it's place, a dark and gaping hole.

It is impossible to look at oneself in the mirror without a sense of revulsion and horror. It then takes months of careful wound care for flesh to regrow. My case was simple, and I healed as quickly as could be expected. Most people who need skin grafts are not so lucky.

I sincerely hope this technology is proven effective and makes its way out to the real world as soon as possible.

Just think that with the starting salary of a non-academically-trained employee (in a desirable position, but still) - you could reasonably buy your own apartment.
Well, I am very surprised, thanks for the info :)
The author discovered this once he started a chat room. That is also a lesson: create an easy, low stakes way to let people connect with you (a slack or discord being a great example in 2019) and you’ll be more likely to get these reports. Partially because they will be less effort for people to write a full big report (mod joining the server) but more importantly people may feel they’re more likely to get immediate help if such a channel exists. (Which may be a burden for larger projects, but in exchange for that burden you’ll get goodwill and the reports themselves.)
Note that the GDPR isn’t just about cookies, it’s about all collection of personalized information, in any form. It also outlines plenty of scenarios that don’t require a separate permission request beyond simply doing business with a company.

We’re only in the midgame of this particular regulation— the rules changed “suddenly” and specified outcomes rather than methods. Regulators and businesses are in the messy stage of negotiating best practices as businesses change as little as possible and regulators give fines for misconduct.

The hope is twofold: that enough users will opt out to make problematic business models less profitable, and that the lower user friction of models that don’t require tracking will become relatively more successful. Neither of these goals is served by allowing a blanket permission setting.
Yes! People have trained large birds to do this as well!

The sceptic in me says that the cost to go through all those reports, even if they were just text as opposed to video, far outweighs the potential benefit they’d get from fewer bugs in the OS. I don’t think very many people will decide to switch to Android based on a buggy iOS experience.
Yes. For example, the GDPR distinguishes full datasets where identifiers have been removed (calling it "pseudonymisation") from truly anonymized data. The former is still subject to the regulation, just like any other personal data.

I feel like there's a time and a place for not including those things. I write stories (~1-100k words) in Markdown and run them through Pandoc to get epubs, and the results are nice enough with a small bit of custom CSS but I would love to outsource formatting entirely to the viewer. I don't want anything fancier than the sort of formatting you'd see in a mass market paperback.

I recently bought an ebook and found that it was formatted in a custom font, so I "returned" it immediately. I guess this is a philosophical issue to some extent, but I don't think the typical novel is visual content, and I don't know what you're trying to accomplish by overriding my preferred settings for text presentation.

I'd like to point out that GDPR compliant sites don't need to ask permission for strictly necessary cookies.

I also recommend using Cookie AutoDelete for Chrome [0] or Firefox [1]. You can define a whitelist of websites where you actually need Cookies (because you want to stay logged in), and the rest will be forgotten when you close the tab. It even allows different rules in Firefox Containers.

0: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cookie-autodelete/...

1: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autode...
They're supposed to be useful, ie the site should not be stalking you until you say yes, the consent prompt should not be misleading (no dark patterns) and service shouldn't be denied until you say yes (I'd argue taking over the entire page and preventing you from browsing until you make a choice would be against the regulation).

Note that this is not just about cookies but about any kind of stalking; browser fingerprinting, local storage, etc. It's more of a legal thing where you gave them permission to track you as opposed to a technical restriction, so a browser-based solution isn't really an equivalent (you can block their cookies but they'll still fingerprint your browser).

The problem is, a lot of them are badly implemented and load the trackers regardless, a lot are badly configured and consider Google/Shitbook as "necessary" cookies you can't opt-out of, and most of them are a pain to opt-out (with Yahoo/Oath - the cancer of the internet - in prime position - their GDPR flow is outright offensive).

Sadly until there's actual enforcement of the regulations things will stay that way.

> a majority of iOS users are in fact using Apple Maps.

That does not contradict the fact that many people install Google Maps. Reread my comments.

> Btw, you can trigger Google Maps with Siri by creating a simple shortcut and when you search for a place on google.

That does not make it work in all apps.

The app is crippled in iOS, yet people still go out of their way to use it to avoid the dumpster fire that is Apple Maps, many years after Apple Maps launched. If Apple Maps existed on Android, it would have barely any users at all, even though Apple Maps would have access to exactly the same APIs as Google Maps on Android. I'm sure Apple would like to have the traffic data that Android users could provide, but they understand that they can't get that data if nobody uses their app.
I can be against the means while acknowledging that they may occasionally produce good results. If they were advocating for tracking only people they don't like, then you'd have a point.
It's not immediately clear if you don't know some of the stuff it mentions in the readme already. It looks like this is a freestanding/embedded userspace emulator. That is, unlike qemu-user's way of doing things, this doesn't do a systemcall translation layer to make linux binaries work on different architectures. This instead is emulating an unconnected (mostly) riscv processor in userspace and letting you run programs for that riscv processor easily as they're elf binaries.

Toptal is < 700 people. If they are looking at Linkedin for data, then it’s probably freelancers (misleadingly) listing Toptal as their employer.
It is this way for good reason. When you let middle management change standard operating procedures you often find that they break systems that exist for audit purposes.
According to the article, the input is human cells. Same with other organs - it typically refers to an actual organ as the end result, with maybe an artificial carrier structure etc to shape the cells during growth.

If it was a website, maybe it can survive no matter what? But if they can get Google and Apple to take the app down in the US market, you effectively kill the app. I‘m sure some will sideload, but relatively speaking, it’ll be a small amt of people.

I haven’t checked the top sites in US list recently, but I imagine even for places that have sites on top of apps, losing App Store access will destroy a large part of the user base. Off the top of head, Google, the surviving portal sites, could survive. But even portal sites like Yahoo likely get enough traffic from apps that they’d be hit hard. Same with Reddit, Facebook, Pinterest. Maybe LinkedIn would go largely unscathed.
PJON is based on a concept of selectable "strategies" to support using the protocol with different physical media. Some of these, like the one named SoftwareBitBang which allows a bus on a wire connected directly to an I/O pin, are very compact.

There are also strategies for TCP and UDP based communication, essentially using the same packet structure but sending them as TCP or UDP over a LAN or WAN. These strategies need the Ethernet library, and use more memory.

Still, the memory requirement is small enough to run a router with two PJON objects with the strategies SoftwareBitBang and DualUDP on an Arduino Nano with a W5500 Ethernet shield. This allows easy traversal between different physical media, and IP-based communication, also with PJON-based software running on a Windows or Linux computer.

Beto O’Rourke Completes Journey from Idol to Also-Ran
Rifles aren’t a desirable drone-interception tool. For one thing, it’s hard to hit a small moving target that may be hundreds of meters up in the air. Overshoot is also a huge problem - unlike birdshot pellets which fall harmlessly to the ground after 300 meters or so, rifle bullets can travel at lethal velocity for several kilometers. Even if you hit the drone, your bullet may keep traveling.
How long to get to $1 bill :p
I think the problem is still that it's friction.

I may have a hundred million pageview credits, but it's still a gnawing "This will cost me one." It's still going to end with "we're outside the big network and want a seperate fee."

The simplest answer is to pull the consumer from the purchasing loop. Create a state endowment to pay artists and journalists a living wage, public-domain all the things, and then we can browse in peace, knowing our taxes paid for it.
In theory it's possible. But accurate triangulation requires multiple passes with specialized equipment not carried on firefighting aircraft.
> Do you really think that there’s a significant public value for someone to be able to “use toys” in the same place where people are actively fighting a raging fire near an inhabited area?

The kind of reactionary legislation that articles like this generate support for will not simply ban drones over fires. The collateral damage to our present freedoms to collect data and imagery will be significant.

The GDPR consent prompts are less about technicalities (are you using cookies or local storage) and more about giving the side permission to stalk you no matter what method they use.

The real problem here is the lack of enforcement of the regulations. The majority of GDPR consent prompts are obnoxious because they aren't actually compliant - compliant ones are much more pleasant. See this comment I just posted on another GDPR thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21429666

Finally there's this misconception (it could be a lie perpetuated by companies looking to profit from GDPR-related consulting, or those looking to push back on the regulation by making it seem more annoying than it actually is) that all cookies require consent. That is blatantly false. Cookies to store site preferences (like language, font size), shopping carts or login sessions don't require consent as they're necessary for the functionality you're trying to use.

Maybe I've just been following computer generated content too much, but it was fairly obvious to me when reading the WallStreetHack generated website that it was in fact generated content.

For example, the following paragraph seems to me to display a clear synthetic generation because the phrasing is very repetitive and the context is never really expanded, even though we have several sentences (which a human writer would almost certainly have condensed):

> One of the ways that a creditor knows if you owe money is when you pay the balance. But, how does an insurance company know if someone has a medical condition or is in medical crisis? Well, it does this to see if you have insurance or are suffering from a medical emergency. In order to determine whether you have insurance, a medical professional performs a background check in order to determine whether any medical problems may exist. These background checks can show whether or not you are in medical crisis and whether or not payment of the debt is being considered.
As I remember it, this was an option you could enable in Netscape Navigator back in the dialup days. In practice it meant that every time you went to a new website you'd have to click ok on a dozen popup menus asking for permission to store each individual cookie before the page would load. I'm sure there are ways to make that process go a little more smoothly but in practice it's still probably something that most users would immediately turn right off.
Because our society requires time coordination for most things... stores need to be open so people can go to them, businesses need to be open at the same time so deals can be made, coworkers need to work together, schools need to be open when parents are working, etc.
