You have misinterpreted what the article documents:

> In this case, the car was sold back to Tesla, a dealer bought it from Tesla and sold it to someone. Tesla determined that the car was configured with FSD even though the user never paid for it.

The dealer purchased the car from the manufacturer and the window sticker (required by law to be provided by the manufacturer to prevent dealer fraud) listed the “FSD” feature as included with the device. The purchaser bought it with the understanding that that list of features was correct. The dealer had no say in the matter either way.

You don’t have to take my word for this: the Monroney sticker is actually in the linked article.

Legally this is unambiguously fraud by the manufacturer.

I don't know, my friend. What I'm about to type will sound a lot like Dudism ... here goes:

It's impossible to explain Wu Wei in instructional format. This paradox alone is its appeal and weakness. The concept is this: never force anything. But then also: do not slack off. Be keenly aware of what is desired but don't attempt at it directly, forcefully. Rather be content that "it (whatever you are seeking to achieve) will happen when you are ready to let it happen" by you doing something quite orthogonal/oblique to the objective.

It's an Eastern philosophical principle but I think there's a nugget of science that could be distilled out of this if studied for factors influencing success and failure in personal endeavours (that is, if any study were to be conducted - I know of none, btw).

From a personal experience I have great moments where I don't chase deadlines or impose mental pressure to conform to explicit design objectives. In these cases I would openly admit that what I am about to do may NOT be the thing I should be doing but I'm doing it anyway to see what might come of it (always keeping in sight the original premise or objective). I've noticed too that if I force a design too literally, I soon develop neurotic anxiety about handling exceptions my forcefully created universe of abstract correctness (abstractions are gon leak!).

You cannot force Wu Wei ... that will be both ironic and paradoxical.
a legal battle with a phone manufacturer will cost much more than the phone itself. 99% of retailers will say it's nothing to do with them, take it up with the manufacturer. phones are relatively cheap and transient commodities compared to something like houses, where "consumer rights" might actually mean something
Shielding would not be effective because the device could just use mains wiring as antenna.
I don't think many people are talking directly to their officials about it. It certainly isn't something my local representatives talk about, and the political consultation groups some of my uni-friends now work in definitely don't have it on their radar.
I think to me the allure of Friends is not only that it's good and that we didn't get anything better in the meantime. It's also almost like Star Trek. It's Sci-Fi now.

There is technology which is distinctly modern, yet a bit different to our own, people mostly get along, there's no 1984 world actually implemented (FB, Google, China), there's effectively no post 9/11 world and the shine and optimism of the 80s and the naivete of the 90s was still around. Everything was pretty neat. The 0.01% were still mostly in hiding.

It's also of course nostalgia but it's not just nostalgia .
> This is why technologies that assume active development, like containers, cloud APIs, etc are in my opinion a disaster in the making.

I can agree with this. I've already been burned a few times _by my own tools_ trying to push an update 8 months after building it the first time. A docker build as part of my CI/CD will download some new package and bork everything.

I know that this can be prevented with pinning, container registries, etc. but I often don't build all of that overhead into these stupid little web services.

I know this may cause immeasurable pain for someone in the future but there's only so much time in a day.

If this was just some *nix box that "just worked" and never got patched it would probably work better long term.
Even better if you could generate that and add some kind of aging to the no-person.

To put that in perspective, as far as I've been able to determine Google provided security updates for the 2013 Nexus 5 until November 2018: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/03/google-ends-major-os...
It's doubtful that any other Android vendor provided updates for longer...
Note that "Xiaomi Mi A" devices are the only ones that are similar to Android One. Most Xiaomi devices have a custom UX and additional weirdness. (Among which is the need to "sign up" online for bootloader unlock and wait for a timeout period. They do this because resellers used to ship bootloader-unlocked versions with "unofficial" mods of sorts, often with customers being none-the-wiser. Not an issue on the 'Mi A' line, for whatever reason.)
There's tons of security researchers focusing on iOS and the lack of source code access is merely an inconvenience.

You can usually still pass safetynet with latest magisk, even on custom Roms. Go check the xda forums and you might find that.
Correction, it is not the west as a single entity. Big western nations have tried exploiting other smaller western nations.

In my native Norway I know several cases of this. When it became possible to utilize hydro-electric power, British businessmen would travel around the country and get farmers owning waterfalls drunk. Then they would get them to sign contracts handing over the waterfall to them.

Same deal when Norway found oil. American oil companies tried hard to screw us over. They put in a lot of pressure and played dirty games. Fortunately our leader at the time Einar Gerhardsen was high skeptical of big capital and a self proclaimed democratic socialist.

They bid their time instead of getting sucked into a one sided deal. In fact the system we managed to put in place to fight big multinationals trying to exploit our resources impressed the Chinese. So I believe Deng Xiaoping sent a delegation to Norway. China had in the past suffered from companies from great western powers owning everything in China. The Chinese wanted to learn from us how we had manage to let in foreign capital and expertise while keeping national control.

So some of the systems in China with joint ventures etc was inspired by systems setup in Norwegian oil industry to protect Norwegian interests. Any small nation western or otherwise is vulnerable to exploitation by large rich nations.

Today China itself is frequently twisting our arm.
You can do both. I like to have some points written down, and just make sure that at the end we covered everything. But eg the order is not always important.

If only it could focus the progressive download on areas of the picture, so it details faces in the early part of the file, and background in the later part.
Norway actually does this and it's fairly effective.

The ever so slight downside to this is that, while Norway's state investment fund is vastly wealthy shareholder of many companies that can throw its weight around, I am, regrettably, not.

One solution for this is for you to give me money.
"Can't" does not mean the same thing as "it's against policy."

The background, clothing and especially other people in the image are still a dead giveaway that it's not a real person. It's kind of weird how the algorithm borks something relatively simple as the texture of clothing.
>I wrote many bug free codebases with it, that's my experience.

Prove it. You seem to be claiming to be qualitatively superior to most developers, since most developers use an IDE or tool of some sort, so let's see an example of this nontrivial bug free code you've written.
Here’s the Guardian article which linked the site: https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2020/feb/07/ai-in-the-ad...

To my mind there is a massive need for us in the software world to pause and think about the ethics of all of this. Engineers more broadly have well developed ethical codes, we should too.
1. it’s good to flag clearly false statements 2. it’s not a “fact it’s easy to have good ratios when your country is tiny”?
I strongly support your line of thinking, but there's a number of issues with this viewpoint that I've identified, and I'm not entirely sure how to solve.

The main one is, the (expected) medical costs are different for different populations. In particular, the expensive sub-populations are (1) the elderly (because aging & death), (2) women (because pregnancy) and (3) some children (born with genetic diseases, birth deficiencies etc. but having no income/wealth to pay for them).

If we argue that medicine should be driven by the free markets, we should also allow the free market to take over other things, but we as a society (currently) refuse to do that (IMO for good reasons).

What's the value of old age? Retirees are almost completely non-productive, a drain on the society... you could argue about saving for retirement (it's "free market") but that's a bit of a lie, you can't "save" labour or energy, so there's always a transfer of value from the working population to the non-working population, and as the non-working retired population increases and the working population shrinks, that's going to become a problem one way or another (both in socialized and in individualistic retirement systems). Old age awaits everyone, a populace would probably be feeling very uncomfortable about their own future if they saw poor old people dying on the streets, refused medical care.

What's the value of bearing children? It's kind of parallel to the above, children are an investment into the future (future workers), currently it's on the individual to pay for this investment (pregnancy, career income loss, more housing, education costs) but the society benefits (extracting taxes / parts of the value produced by this future worker). Should women also bear the cost of medical care? You could say there's always a father in the picture, but some people also claim that fathers should have the option of financial abortion (given that they have no say in physical abortion). Generally I argue that there should be incentives for people to have kids (correlated with their income, so that high-income, usually highly educated people, have more of an incentive to have kids - e.g. some kind of negative tax rate).

And finally, what's the value of a human life? Should we condemn a kid to a short life full of suffering just because s/he was born with some mistake in their body? I mean, resources are limited so we always have to make trade-offs, but refusing medical care to kids born to poor parents seems particularly evil.

I'm not sure what the solution is... personally, I'm leaning towards a "highest highs, highest lows" kind of a society - having some kind of social net (regarding medicine, jobs, ...) while also allowing private markets for those who can afford them (i.e. if you want to buy private surgery, you can, if you're wealthy enough). But this needs to be carefully managed so the whole system kind-of works.

The purpose of Android is to provide some counterweight so that google doesn’t have to pay so much to Apple to be the dominant mobile search engine. It is an economic losss on its own terms but saves Google much more than it costs. They would be foolish to divest it as it is probably not viable as a standalone entity (for reasons others have mentioned)
I know there are means to defeat safetynet but honestly I was glad not to tweak my phones anymore and happy without a rooted firmware.

If we are to believe the article, Chevron was on a vendetta against him, spending huge amounts of money to destroy him. Paying people to dig dirt. Surely you must see the immorality of this?

I mean we are not asked to believe anything crazy here. A company made enormous environmental damage. Is that premise hard to believe? Next they refused to pay or invent excuses? Again nothing odd about that.

Some lawyer takes up the case and wins. Again nothing out of the ordinary. The company fights him tooth and nail. Nothing weird thus far.

What is novel is really just the extent to which they have gone to smear him and destroy him. That they are motivated to do this is not strange at all.

Ohh you bring me back memories of 1999 when I was using WebTrends to analyze http access logs.

HTTP Log analysis is slow, and requires a lot of server side setup. Also, it will not give you navigation events in a SPA.

Using GA... just drop a line of JavaScript and you are done, with near real-time insights that are more detailed than an access log. You don’t need any server conf, or extra knowledge (not even JS knowledge: copy & paste the embed code). And Google gives you that for “free”... that’s why tons of sites doesn’t care about Http access log analysis anymore.

For desktop apps is easy too. The GA API is very simple: send the app id, event + any event data you want. Your dev team can do that with self service (no need to setup a service, no extra costs to handle data).
In this case, though, the "upgrade" was the loss of a core feature.

The CRT attack works because it's a progressively scanned image, so each pixel is being produced at a distinct time. Take the image intensity of a screen from a telescope a mile away, write the pixels, jiggle the offset and you have an image.

I'm sure it was harder than that in practice.
These are all subscription services which are not covered on any car.

In my case (not a tesla): software updates are only installed iff there is a recall notice. One time they installed an update because they had to wait anyways but that was not guaranteed and a service from the mechanic.

Most internet uses in cars (if not all) are bound the a person, not a car. Selling it most likely voids that subscription. In my case the uses are free for 5 years for the first buyer and a paid subscription afterwards. Most likely tesla does something similar.

Supercharging: See internet. Though I see plenty of them advertised with it. Maybe this is different in the EU.

Features (as in, bought features in feature packs or options) on the other hand are something of value (even if only software) added to the car and cannot be taken away without compensation or reimbursement. Unless you had a subscription but that is not the case in this instance.

Problems with Material Design's color contrast and accessibility
Here are some ideas :

-Forms written in Markdown.

-Automatic creation of anti-tracker extensions settings for websites

-A online portal to compare current price of items in cart across various platforms such as flipkart, amazon, etc and provide the best deals available.

-Create a script which would scrape sites like developer.android.com and add the latest versions of the libraries in your android project.

-Facebook Messenger ChatBot, for basic interaction, getting instant news by providing queries, reminders, weather notifications, hazard news notifications, fun games like trivia, and a casino system with games like coin flip, blackjack and dice, where the user can bet a specific amount of money.

-A system that takes important dates like birthdays and anniversaries of our friends and relatives, possibly from Facebook or manually entering them, setting a reminder for us and suggesting gifts we can buy for them based on the relationship and the nearest possible place to get the gift.

Exactly, if you provide the laundry list its easy to validate your assignment against it.

You submitted code which doesn't have things in my laundry list. Noticeably your db calls aren't surrounded by try/except. You have written no documentation. You didn't ship the code with git repo. No unit or functional test cases. I also expect these days one would use Python's typing library. Most of this helps in code maintainability. The fact that your assignment has none of this means you can't be hired to write production code ....

... See where this is going?

Despite you having written the code, someone with a different laundry list of quality checks can fail you.

It's unreliable by definition. You're better off keeping a device around with the stock OS on it, that you only use for SafetyNet-required stuff.
I was a bit surprised to see the recommendation of another inline preamp in the chain with the Focusrite. He recommends a TRITON AUDIO FetHead Filter in-Line Microphone Preamp. Does anyone have further experience with this setup? I've been using my MXL Mics 770 Cardioid Condenser Microphone with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 with nothing in-between. I know I've got the gain dialed up pretty high but it never occurred to me to put something else in between them. I'd love to hear your experiences and recommendations. Is an in-line preamp worth it?
I'm in the same boat. If it moves things in the right direction, then it doesn't suck.
I work remotely for valley and LA startups. As a freelancer (sometimes with shares) in my case, but still, it is doable. I guess big corps is different, but those do not interest me (meant as; I cannot say anything about those).
This actually became very obvious 3 weeks ago, when a majority of employers shut down their work from home services because of the Citrix Netscaler vulnerability.
There were major traffic jams the following Monday morning which were aptly named "Citrix Jams" on the news.

Apparently many companies were late implementing the security measures and had to take their entire service down 3 weeks after the initial publication of the issue & fix.
If consumer rights don't mean anything for > $500 devices then there might as well be no consumer rights.
> I wonder though... wouldn't a safe first way of implementing these new syscalls be to make them actually synchronous?

No, because it visibly changes the semantics. Consider for instance IORING_OP_ACCEPT; if you make it synchronous, and nothing connects to your program, it would wait forever, instead of returning immediately and allowing the program to continue. The file-related opcodes are safer (when used with actual files, instead of network sockets), but still would behave differently for instance with a hanging NFS mount.
I agree, and I also think that the sentiment that turning a passion into a job is somehow beneficial because "you will never work a day in your life" is untrue. As soon as your livelihood depends on something, you will at some point either have to make sacrifices and trade-offs, or you will starve. Creative passion can only blossom when you can do everything exactly the way you want without compromise, which is unlikely to happen as soon as someone else's expectations come into the mix.

You can have a better, more rewarding and fulfilling career, sure. But never expect it not to feel like a chore a lot of the time.

My manager and I usually go over my production real quick then talk about shows we both used to go to back in the day and upcoming shows our old butts are thinking about going to. This time of year we'll probably talk about looking forward to going out and getting some morels in the woods soon.

She's not the typical manager though. I feel like if I ever get another company interested in me I'll have no idea how the real world really reacts because the opco of my company moves to the beat of its own drum and my office even more so.

Our 1:1 meeting are just monthly "here's your production from the last month we've completed the data on" which we get weekly via email from the team leads anyway, we sign it and never get a copy and it gets filed away to never be seen again as per standard bureaucratic make-work. Mangers just use it as a chance to point out any errors you are making repetitively and see if you have any questions or concerns.

Depends what you mean by "similar issues"

If you mean "a bunch of relatively new Android phones not getting security updates because their manufacturer doesn't support them", then yes. Apple is actively providing not just security patches but entire feature software updates for the iPhone 6S, which is 4.5 years old at this point.
I think the chance that a commercial company is going to spin off into a community-driven non-profit is pretty low. Or at least their chance of success is going to be low. The examples you gave built up their communities over time.
