I think I know which manufacturer you are talking about, and this is super shady. They also go around in conferences talking about how "the data belongs to the patient" and how they "support standards".

Maybe now that the EU has started mandating data interoperability this could improve, but I have a feeling they will just find a way to tick that box without actually offering any diagnostically relevant data.

Looks like Crostini is the official tool that duplicated the functionality of the the more homebrew Crouton. Crostini came out in early 2018, which was about half a year after I gave up on using linux on chromebooks out of frustration.

Do you think the degree to which a company succumbs to one of these "pathologies" matters? Is it a matter of timing (i.e. becoming successful faster than they become moribund)?

What do you think differentiates a company that becomes "mature" vs one that flames out?
Termux allows you to apt install thousands of packages. The options in that issue aren't nearly as good. Bundling every binary in the apk? That would be a breach of licenses, let alone the amount of storage that would take up to have gimp, libreoffice, Firefox, etc installed. As mentioned, proot is a temporary hack (why wouldn't any app just stick proot in their lib Dir?).

Even if the workaround works, this would break apt install from non-termux repos, compiling and running with gcc, maybe Python packages installed with pip.

Google's intent here is to block code execution in the app home Dir. Any workaround would be a security violation and eventually stopped. How is this not killing Termux?

I had just purchased and starting reading the book when this was first posted here. I haven't spent much time to look into either side, but I stopped reading the book because I felt like I may be filling my mind with false information.

The complexity of the amount of security measures a modern day journalist needs to take to manage the digital, physical and operational of themselves and their sources is immense. It's why we built Umbrella App (https://www.secfirst.org, so they could have one simple location, open source, open content that they could quickly reference on a phone.
Facebook, Uber, and Amazon are not comparable at all to WeWork, Oyo, or some others. If you thought some 22 year old with no hotel management experience was within a few years going to rival Hilton and Marriott and come up with the in house policies, procedures, and build up the staff required to go around the world and perform constant quality control, then I have a bridge to sell you. Same thing with WeWork, there's no moat there.
Stock markets are very high risk though. Not on the same level as VCs, but buying an index fund is imo within one order of magnitude of funding 200 startups in terms of risk. If you can get 8% a year on your $100billion, I think anyone takes it.

Its that giant "conservative" investors can't get 4% in bonds, so they move into blue chip stocks. Blue chip stockholders have to run into smaller mid-caps and semi-mature startups. Series B funding has to move to VCs, all to get the same level of yield.

> That wealth isn't overall that desperate for a return

On the conservative end, pension funds etc functionally need to chase some amount of return or else they start to become insolvent. You can't hold at 0% forever, there's no point in being a pension fund at that point. Right now its not desperate for a return, because its trying to stay alive. But when they were making bets on WeWork its because they were looking for a massive return.
Maybe the thresholds feature in Grafana would work for you?

It's like TIFF, or like USB Storage.

Sometimes when it doesn't really matter what is chosen, one powerful entity can just pick and it doesn't matter. Even if maybe option B is very slightly better, clarity that we're all doing A is arguably better than some do A and some B and all suffer.

Unicode / ISO 10646-1 is an example like that. Some people don't like Han Unification, some people think UTF-16 reserved codepoints is an abomination, but mostly everybody is happy to live in a world where Unicode and ISO-10646 are effectively the same thing seen from different angles, not competing standards (Yes that could have happened)

Other times though there is no single entity powerful enough and willing to insist on one way forward, and no natural agreement on whether to do A or B. Instead parties that want to do A, and parties that want to do B just agree either is fine. The result is "standards" like USB Storage, TIFF or DICOM that leave far too much as unresolved choices.

Example: Some scanner manufacturers agreeing TIFF had designed scanners that start from the top-left of the eventual document, others started top-right or even bottom-right. If TIFF said "Images are top-to-bottom" the bottom-right scanners become expensive because they need a huge RAM buffer. Vice versa if TIFF says "Images are bottom-to-top". So... the actual TIFF standard says either can be true, you just flip a tag in the header to declare which way up the image is. Decoders have to carry all the burden of dealing with this, or be incompatible with some images to the confusion of users. ("Why is this picture upside down?")

These standards are marginally better than nobody agreeing anything, but only marginally. They're like that mediocre fusion restaurant you end up at when half the group wants Chinese and half wants Indian. Nobody likes this (hypothetical) fusion restaurant, so now nobody is happy, is that really better? I guess it's an improvement on spending the evening arguing pointlessly, because at least you can eat now.

Hi, don't take this as a challenge or a "cite your source". Didn't the bubble pop 2000-2001? I'm asking because I'm wondering if I am remembering it wrong, I lost my job kind of late but I worked with IBM. The "I got $50K of options!" 22 year olds all got jacked much earlier.

My solution is a lack of implementing any of the solutions, therefore that's the only focus there is. Freedom (by the 1A) instead of vague, complicated and heavy-handed policies that are currently causing an American company to side with an authoritarian regime.

$ pdftotext | grep sometext

^^ first advantage

Also: a) Formatting is not lost, it just changes to fit the default paper size I've got selected (A4) but doesn't really make much difference, since its a snapshot, and b) URL is right there in the Header of the PDF, and is clickable, so no - not really an issue. This archive also functions as a bookmark collection as well as an offline copy for future reference ..

Looks like Apple's implementation is a bit better then. I just tried on Windows and I definitely don't get any clickable links when printed with the OS print-to-pdf driver. (I do get them with Chrome's save-to-pdf feature which circumvents "printing" and generates the PDF itself.)
I just commented on a few of my videos & it's still there?
I would be careful with using this method and check the generated PDF versions with your eyes before writing them off as "all is good, it is archived now".

I recently got bitten by that, when I was trying to print out some page in Chrome, and it was rendering as a bunch of white space surrounded by some elements from the page, but without any actual content I cared about. Turns out, my situation isn't that uncommon for pages that are heavily JS-dependent

Note: I am not saying JS=bad. This has nothing to do with JS itself and everything to do with how JS is used to generate/render the page. A lot of pages just don't bother with doing it the right way that doesn't screw up generated PDFs.
> Google's intent here is to block code execution in the app home Dir

Google's actions are to block exec of writable code. What their _intentions_ are is pure speculation and detracts from the actual issue. Your claim is largely unsubstantiated & lacks evidence, particularly as Google recommended ways to continue to do exactly what you claim they are intending to block.

> The options in that issue aren't nearly as good.

How is using a PROT_EXEC mmap "not nearly as good"? It's the same end result. There's no technical banning of executing downloaded code. That's not what was done, and doing that would also break Chrome which should be glaringly obvious that Google isn't intending or going to do.

It takes a bit more effort, and it's not as "simple" as just exec'ing random stuff, but it's not without its own upsides as well (like not violating W^X, which is a _well_ proven security design)

This reminds me of the pervasive "your eyes can only see 24fps" myth, I guess people crave evidence that what they have is "good enough" and others are just being elitist?
When it comes to these kinds of basket case occurrences, it's a bad idea to try and tweak them to be less bad. There is a reason they occur, and it's not "compliance" or whatnot.

The ratings agencies are an obvious example. It's not a matter of integrity, ethics or policies. Ratings just aren't what they seem to be anymore. They're obviously not there for investors to estimate risk. Their main job now is to regulate the financial industry.
I'm curious about the timing. Many people seem to find it more difficult to maintain this level of dedication after they have kids. What made things different in your case?
Exactly. That tax-deductible donation needs to go to their own foundation, so they can spend the money in a way of their choosing and also gain prestige for banquet hob-nobbing.

It's not that they don't want to do good - it's that they want to maximize the value from the good they do.
Not sure if their plugin works for it or not, but: Firefox has had extensions on Android for years. Should work fine.

Off-topic, but that's awesome! How do you get access to your notifications from Termux?
Isn't that the same thing in Android? SELinux, which I read elsewhere in this thread is where this is built into, is part of the system in which your app runs.
Also, it should be noted that this is only the first time you launch the untrusted app. After that the system considers the app to be trusted and doesn't bug you about it. But self-described power users already know all this stuff, so I'm sure this isn't news to anyone. Self-described power users know everything about everything, or else they wouldn't describe themselves as power users. It's why they're so revered for their humility and lack of obvious cognitive biases throughout the world.

I've since learned in this thread that Chrome and Firefox are not as good as Safari for this technique - it hasn't impacted me much since I only use Chrome/Firefox for development, mostly.

And although I do occasionally check the produced PDF's, the layout doesn't matter to me at all since I use a cmd-line grep or combination of 'pdftotext' to find the page, open the PDF, and click the link to go to the original web page if I need to .. haven't found a single dud PDF in the collection in a randomised sampling, but then again in 20,000+ files, there's bound to be one that didn't make it through the rendering pipeline, but so far, hasn't been an issue.
That’s not the first time that slide has appeared on a Softbank deck. In fact, that deck is nowhere close to being the most insane SoftBank deck.
Often when you have a medical condition that is not well understood by most people you cannot do x, y or z. It might be exhausting to explain your limitations which may change day to day depending on how you're doing at that particular moment on that particular day. People may not believe you, and it feels awful to have to be around someone who won't take you seriously or gets angry with you if you try their supposed "cure" and it doesn't work. An ex-boyfriend of mine suggested a micro dose of acid would treat my migraines. I tried it and it made my symptoms worse. He got terribly angry with me for not trying hard enough because I didn't want to do acid for the fourth day in a row.

If I tell people I get migraines pretty much all of the time they think I get bad headaches, not that I can't see, lose my ability to talk, have my arm go numb and instead it feels like my jaw is stuck in a vise, I can't look at sunlight and every noise is painful. People don't want to hear about the ways someone they know is silently suffering.

>but a company-like-Uber-in-some-ways could be profitable in the future

In a sufficiently dense area, there is clearly a market for app-summoned taxis (for various values of who owns/maintains/pays for said cab). Prices may be higher than today's rideshare and volume lower. But there's a market for it. Just probably in fewer areas/at fewer times/with more expensive rates than today.
I’m sorry you feel this way, maybe if you could try contributing more positively to FOSS in some way and receive some accolades for yourself, you would not feel so spiteful about the attention Carmack receives.

I think you will find Carmack has contributed more to the hacker ecosystem than anyone else if you just take a very shallow peek.

I would suggest to start by reading the source code to Doom, it is surprisingly approachable and educational in several fields of math, geometry, data structures, and computer science. There are even books to help you understand it, heck, there are a dozen or more books about Id software and John Carmack, so there are many authors and readers who feel very differently from you, maybe you could consider the reason. There are many things in our field that would have happened eventually, no matter who did it, but much of Carmack’s contributions really would not have happened without him, he really is in a league of his own.

It’s really amazing to me that you feel so negatively towards people who have endearment for one of the hacker community’s greatest contributors. I can only guess that you might be very unhappy, for that I’m very sorry and I hope it turns around for you very soon.
We Have Become Exhausted Slaves in a Culture of Positivity (2016)
One will always be able to gain write access to that "user space" by having a separate app build "APK update" packages on-demand, signed by a user-controlled signature. It will be the moral equivalent of running a Linux live distribution from read-only media and having to reboot Termux for each "update". Of course, one will be able to execute other code via JIT, perhaps even hooking into a patched version of qemu-user. It will be annoying but it will broadly work.
