Think of big cities like managers. They don't produce any products, so you might conclude that they're a waste of money.

Likewise, cities have their place in a countries economy, even if it's not to directly produce goods and driving up the GDP per capita.

In even simpler words: Remove Berlin from Germany and the GDP of the rest of the country would also go down.
A lock screen is a reason for 'reasonable suspicion'? I'm not saying you're wrong, but it seems unreasonable. If I have a lock on my briefcase it isn't reasonable to suggest it's full of contraband.
Even so, I don't see how you exactly you go from internal storage to loading malware or exfiltrating passwords. Exposing internal storage doesn't let you access the isolated app storage where private app data and passwords would be stored, only common areas like downloads and media.

Lacking any technical details, this article reads like one of those scary chain forwards.
There is a finite and already fully utilized number of domiciles. Adding 400 well off families would undoubtedly displace 400 not so well off families over time.

All while jacking up prices of apartments/food/services for everyone.

Where is the positive net effect for people here? The city&state will earn more tax revenue, but for the neighborhood there's nothing positive that's going to happen.

I'd say the use for personal identification is cross-platform linking of users. I.e., this user on Google Search and this user on Google Maps are the same person. I agree that this is a competitive advantage, because, in the same vein, it gives the platform owners more data. Technically, anonymized cross-platform-linked data is conceivable.

I think if the legislation ball ever gets rolling two things we're likely to see, because they're low-hanging fruit, are the end of mass tracking on the internet and a meaningful shift in who controls the data gathered.

I can imagine a platform akin to internet banking where you manage your data and its usage.

Something I'd love to see is a "publication" of big-data algorithms. A private entity designs the algorithm for profit and leases it and you run it in your (trusted) environment, owning both the input and output. Nothing leaks.
Here's one:

Since it's Chinese vendors such as Huawei pushing their implementation. Supposedly it's resistant to such interference, now it turns out it's not. Surprise surprise.
Yes but do mind hardware bugs that affected YubiKeys such as https://magicofsecurity.com/roca-critical-vulnerability-in-i...

Also I'd strongly encourage generating encryption subkey in software (offline, air-gapped machine) and then copying it to Yubikeys. If you lose your Yubikey (or mistype 3 times the PIN) you wouldn't be able to decrypt your secret data.
No, this is bad news; it's a smaller version of the economic bomb/distortion of creating a google campus somewhere. This will be bad for everything from housing up to the general health of startup culture in Berlin. Desperate move by the economically starved Brandenburg. (and of course they won't suffer the consequences)
That is how we support references in the Rust toolchain right now, via wasm-bindgen, and it's an important part of making unforgable references work for languages that rely on linear memory.

It doesn't help with making capabilities more fine-grained, though: we have to treat all code that has access to that table as having the same level of trust.
IIRC the data lines are required for the phone to charge quickly. Without them you're limited to just 500 mA instead of up to 3 A.

You are correct. SSH multiplexing sockets use no authentication whatsoever: the assumption is "if it's up, the user already did that before."
Not the parent poster, but I certainly reject the concept of gentrification, or at least reject it as something to be avoided.
Nope, you were right. It's for USB MITM. I guess the assumption is that the keyboard is wired in a different way (a laptop?) or in wireless scenarios (NFC Yubikey).

Honestly, given the lack of tooling they have now, it is pretty much perfect from a user's perspective. You are only going to use WASM if you absolutely need the performance. It's just too painful otherwise.
PortaPow offers a variety of cables including A to micro-B, A to lightning, and A to C[1].

Adafruit's website sells a lot of cables[2], including

* An A extender blocking data with a switch to turn power on and off

* An A to micro-B blocking data with a switch to turn power on and off

* An A that splits to mini-B blocking data and micro-B allowing data

* A micro-B extender splitter where one side has only power and the other side has power and data

* An A extender that always allows power and has a switch to turn data on and off

* An A to micro-B that always allows power and has a switch to turn data on and off

* An A to triple splitter of lightning with data and power, 30pin iPhone/iPod with only power, and micro-B with only power

There are other similar cables[3]. Note that naively disabling data will sometimes disable fast charging. Some data-blocking cables themselves re-implement or allow fast charging.

I thought essentially no one uses mini-A or micro-A, so I don't know why you would want that. I thought USB 3 was just about faster data. If a cable always blocks data, then I don't see any use for USB 3.

Prices clear when supply curves meet demand curves. A plumber can’t charge $1,000 per hour because another equivalently plumber is willing to work for $200 per hour.

Doctors can charge high prices because they have low supply and high demand for their services.

No one is stopping a doctor from offering their services at $25 or even $50 per 30 min consultations. If doctor A was offering their services for X + e to insurance just to get X, and doctor B was offering their service for Y, and Y is less than X, then insurance would still go with doctor B even though there was no “e”.

Insurance companies solve the issue of a buyer having no knowledge about what they are buying since they also employ doctors to check others’ work, and to negotiate pricing as a group. Some countries don’t need this since the buyer is the government, but the government is still performing the same functions of negotiating prices and verifying doctors’ work.

Companies should only do the minimum required by law?

It depends on your moral values which can be different.

If you skip the simplification vegans are using to justify eating plants (they don't scream and run away when we're trying to eat them) you hardly can eat anything ethically.

Plus, I remember seeing a video years ago from some electric car visionary (didn't went very far) that argued Israel is basically an island. In the west there is a sea and in the north/east/south there are hostile nations/deserts that you don't want to drive to.

Compared to most other nations it's easy to bootstrap an electric driving infrastructure in Israel, because you don't have to do a continental wide rollout.
You should look at actual gentrification studies - displacement is almost never as bad as predicted and usually ultimately everyone benefits.
What's the "right way" to do things anyway? I know quite well how to tap the share icon, then wait for the drawer to appear, then scroll down a bit, then tap the save icon, then wait for the next drawer to appear, then tap "To photos" or whatever.

Or I can just hit two physical buttons on my phone and grab the image in the form of a screenshot. Because I don't care about the image fidelity, I usually just want to share the thing on Discord or Slack or wherever.

Don't be so arrogant as to assume that people doing things differently than you must be too stupid or old or blind to do it "the right way".
Honestly I don't think so. I tried overclocking my i7-4790k back in the day and it took an absurd amount of time and I never really got a meaningful improvement that I could honestly say was stable.

I hear the i9-9900k is a good overclocker but with AMD being the best option now and their chips being well, let's be honest, not the best overclockers in the world I don't really see the point.

What this has to do with state/country level politics (sure, besides everything, but)? You are simply saying to your employer (or potential employer) that I have this need (healthcare, mothers' room, 4 day workweek, whatever), and that were they willing to provide that you are going to work there.

Naturally if many people band together that constitutes a better bargaining strategy. (Sounds familiar?)

But unions and all the formal groupings are problematic, because they quickly regress to representing only the very common issues and/or smaller issues themselves become bargaining chips.

Solidarity organically grows these flocks of people banded together, and thus pragmatically these kinds of ad-hoc organizations have the same bargaining power as formal unions. (And the fact that Google fears this so much that they are willing to risk breaking the law because of it shows this.)
I donțt know about Brexit, but I think Musk hinted years ago that he might do a Gigafactory in Germany or France. The reason for this is because that's where all the car workers are, and Musk will want to be able to attract that talent.

Germany was about the best option, except that it was also a bit higher risk, as Merkel has been catering to the old carkamers quite a bit, often with moves against Tesla. But now that VW and other German carmakers are shifting a little towards EVs, I guess that risk isn't as great anymore.
The artificial increase in milk production by injecting cows with hormones takes its toll after how many years? 30-40?

It did not matter that they (for your sample of 'they') caused health problems to cows - including mastitis - and it also did not matter that the side-effects of these hormones on human consumption were not fully considered.

One commercial that I clearly remember was by one of those "farmers" saying that if you as a farmer do not inject your cow to increase milk production, you are simply leaving money on the table.
I agree with you - laws should be written in as plain, simple, and timeless language as possible. Idioms are something that I'd try to avoid if I was writing laws today. However, in this instance, the operative clause of the amendment is clear:

the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.

We can also understand the meaning of the amendment by examining the intentions, motivations, and beliefs of the people who wrote it -- what they were trying to achieve by doing so. There is extensive legislative history on this subject, which makes it clear that the founders believed that individual firearm ownership was an important and necessary preexisting right. The Supreme Court ruling that I've referenced goes into this history:

> By the time of the founding, the right to have arms had become fundamental for English subjects. Blackstone, whose works, we have said, “constituted the preeminent authority on English law for the founding generation,” cited the arms provision of the Bill of Rights as one of the fundamental rights of Englishmen. His description of it cannot possibly be thought to tie it to militia or military service. It was, he said, “the natural right of resistance and self-preservation,” and “the right of having and using arms for self-preservation and defence,”. Other contemporary authorities concurred. Thus, the right secured in 1689 as a result of the Stuarts’ abuses was by the time of the founding understood to be an individual right protecting against both public and private violence.

> And, of course, what the Stuarts had tried to do to their political enemies, George III had tried to do to the colonists. In the tumultuous decades of the 1760’s and 1770’s, the Crown began to disarm the inhabitants of the most rebellious areas. That provoked polemical reactions by Americans invoking their rights as Englishmen to keep arms. A New York article of April 1769 said that “[i]t is a natural right which the people have reserved to themselves, confirmed by the Bill of Rights, to keep arms for their own defence.” They understood the right to enable individuals to defend themselves. As the most important early American edition of Blackstone’s Commentaries (by the law professor and former Antifederalist St. George Tucker) made clear in the notes to the description of the arms right, Americans understood the “right of self-preservation” as permitting a citizen to “repe[l] force by force” when “the intervention of society in his behalf, may be too late to prevent an injury.”

> There seems to us no doubt, on the basis of both text and history, that the Second Amendment conferred an individual right to keep and bear arms. Of course the right was not unlimited, just as the First Amendment’s right of free speech was not, (...) [citations omitted]

I've deployed quite a lot of OpenBSD at places you would certainly consider "enterprise", not sure I follow these points.

1) ??

2) Yes, this is fair -- but OpenBSD tends to fit more in the gateway/firewall/proxy/bastion space than running your microservices (although I've run plenty of node/etc apps on obsd hosts, IAAS and ansible is still a valid deployment path even after docker exists..)

3) Prop. vendor tools which require blobs should be run from whatever platforms they support. This is why you keep a windows laptop kicking around for flashing firmwares in the dc and so on

4) Family gets macs ;)

I don't think any of your points are enough to consider linux "better" than OpenBSD for any use case they're both capable of..
What we are seeing are the consequences of "Employee Capture". Google captured the hearts and minds of its employees for workplace productivity. Its side effects are varied. The real world only sees highlights.

Googled created a bubble from which its employees can socialize without ever needing to do so with the outside world. Why talk politics with the outside world? Stay with us, where it is safe, people are intelligent, and share your values (we swear).

This is a root problem at the company. It is coming at a great cost.

James Damore shared his views with his social group. These other activists do the same. This is what people do among their own.

Being fired from Google amounts to not just losing a job but "friends" and the only people who the company encouraged socializing with.

Google has a major lawsuit on its hands, regardless of whatever arbitration agreement it makes new-hires sign. Google is causing harm by capturing employees hearts and minds.

Your colleagues are not an authentic social network who you can organise with and pursue activism. You aren't hired to do that. While you are naive for thinking you could, it's not entirely your fault. Google brainwashed you.
I remember back in university in the 1990s, someone in sysadmin added some sleep() to the startup script for Netscape with a comment like "pretend we're doing something".

I prefer things to be instantaneous. Slowness suggests it's been cobbled together by incompetents.
I read that it's mainly a software problem, which would make sense why the delay is so long. Building and fixing problems with the building are done faster than fixing the software to manage that airport.
How come they need to wait til the whole fund to run its course before bringing on new partners? Don't they raise new funds every few years, before old ones have entirely exited?
It certainly is, and that much was obvious as Intel "committed" to fixing Spectre V1 in software as opposed to hardware. Worse yet, it doesn't think a hardware solution is necessary. Except, that pretty much all recent Spectre-related bugs are variants of Spectre V1.
That's fair. And you presumably get that other people can have a different opinion so you probably wouldn't be flabbergasted when someone wishes to avoid gentrification. That's what I'm curious about re: parent poster.
> Optional: verify public key on Keybase.

For organizations publishing employee keys via Web Key Directory can also be an additional signal that the key is trustworthy.

It's also quite simple: for example exporting the key 5C090ED7318B6C1E (binary, not armored) and putting it on this exact URL: https://datadoghq.com/.well-known/openpgpkey/hu/964aj6q73iat... is enough to discover the key using e-mail address.

That was a rather different problem than directly harassing the unlawfully searched person.

In that case it was incompetence, gross negligence, and so on. Naturally it's hard to prove in court that the court's enforcement arm is at fault.

And at first the guy tried to sue for damages but that was thrown out - because it's so well established - but still that's the point that should be hammered.
You're plain wrong. It always depends on the secret. Secret acts are just acts that some people don't know about. The debatable thing is if there are secrets that are not evil, which is difficult to answer.

Not all credentials are name+password (in fact, using password over SSH is the least secure option available): user authenticates using their name+ssh key. Nothing too useful can be captured from that set of credentials, except to confirm their identity. If they also use an U2F, there's no way to capture that: "I am user Piskvorrr...but have no way to prove it."

OTOH, this method captures their session, in other words, "I am user Piskvorrr and I have already proven it by successfully authenticating".

Market makers decide a fair value for a product, decide the volatility and therefore quote a bid/ask spread. One important input into that decision is what other players in the market are willing to trade at. If there's a huge volume offering to buy at 10, I can buy at 11 safe in the knowledge that generally I can offload that at 10 if things don't go well.

Remember, market makers aren't making a profit on every trade, they're making a profit over many trades by taking on risk. Sometimes the market will genuinely move due to outside news and they'll take losses in those cases. They don't know they're going to be able to sell their position for a profit, they just know if they quote correctly that they can extract a premium for taking on that risk (and then alpha for being able to price better than other people).

If you start systematically putting orders in the market that you don't want to trade in order to influence other people's willingness to trade and then pulling the orders out then you can make money off those market makers. The problem is, that if you can trick people into doing bad trades they're going to be systematically losing money. This means they'll change their strategy - they can no longer trust the offers in the market as a source of information. So now, because they don't have reliable information on what other people in the market are offering, they can't be as confident, so they have to quote a wider spread between bid and ask. So now the average punter who wants to sell their position is going to pay a bigger premium to the market maker. So there's less liquidity and it's more expensive to use the market- which goes fundamentally against what the markets are there for.

How do you “catch” them? The ID is sent from the app and not in plaintext.
would this monitor thread run on the same core? If so, a timer interrupt or other kernel preemption event need to fire to get it scheduled. At that point might as well handle the preemption directly.

On the other hand, dedicating a core as a preemption supervisor seems wasteful. I guess you could run the supervisor on an hyper thread to reduce wastage.

well it's a federation by name, unfortunatly most useful things aren't really as federalist as it should be.

that's why some things in germany are somewhat broken.
some states want their autonomy, but this autonomy makes some things stupid, like our school politics (which are done by our states) and/or our public transport companies can be operated by states which sometimes just can't work (db is not)

germany actually has the same problem as the eu. states want to be as autonomous as possible, no matter the risks. and changes to this are seen as really bad, because people do not like "einheitsbrei".
Originally, on AppleTV, when I opened the app, the first thing I’d click would let me resume watching what I was watching previously. Then, one day, it changed so they I had to scroll up or down to find the row of “continue watching”, and it wasn’t even one row up or down, I had to make an effort to look for it.

I would assume this was due them wanting me to see what else they had, or maybe feel like having to scroll would make it seem like they had a lot. Or maybe it was incompetence. Either way, I saw no reason for them to inconvenience me, so I canceled Netflix.
