I see what I was doing wrong, I was considering total bit carries during the addition, ie... 1+1= 10 and is a one bit carry, and not the carry operation done after overflowing the word boundary.

Thanks for your understanding.
''Military members are not obligated to follow illegal orders''. Ok, but this is not clear situation. Violence exists, therefore it needs to be stopped. Police station is burned down. Once police is not able to stop violence using military is only option.

UK widens visa rights offer to almost 3m Hong Kong residents
Guys, we have a lot of European customers and we completely ignored GDPR rules. After it was introduced, only 2 potential customers asked us about it and we just moved their emails to trash. Not worth the hassle! There is nothing they can do anyway to force it if you are not living within the EU (unless there is a special agreement between your country and EU). I even know some startups who are located within the EU, but still don't care about GDPR :D
Eventually you realize the general public opinion is almost always the path of least resistance. Whatever explanation/justification takes the least amount of effort is what they'll go with.

No, it would not, because generally left-wing people don't spread lies with the intention to dissuade people from voting (quite to the contrary, the left wing is fighting for people to have the right and means to vote) or call for storming the White House and start shooting.

Well this is the law of unintended consequences in action. Many people don't think it will have any negative effect but we don't know. Nature is extraordinarily complex and disrupting it in such a huge way almost always carries knock-on impact.

> Consent should be freely given otherwise it's invalid.

I tried to figure out what this actually means but it's very hazy. A naggy news website isn't performing a contract. Are they provisioning a service (assuming you did not buy or order or subscribe to anything)?

"When assessing whether consent is freely given, utmost account shall be taken of whether, inter alia, the performance of a contract, including the provision of a service, is conditional on consent to the processing of personal data that is not necessary for the performance of that contract."

https://gdpr-info.eu/art-7-gdpr/
That's a pretty default thing that most educated people know though. Regulation and bureaucracy usually benefit the established behemoths with enough lawyers, while gray zones, sluggish laws or easy processes benefit new players or small ones without all the legal armor.

No wonder that Facebook is lobbying for getting regulated and Microsoft proposed regulating some computer vision uses (faces) etc. Some people of course eat it up and think it's because they are just mature now and understand their responsibility and want to benefit the public etc. In reality it's because they have armies of lawyers who can follow all the legal minutiae, have the internal processes for compliance and documentation, audits etc. Which allow them to do whatever they did before (obviously they lobby for laws that allow their use cases) but make it difficult for others to enter. It's the "kicking the ladder" idea.
The massive debate is either because of people misunderstanding the rules despite them seeming very clear (functional cookies are allowed and don't require consent/disclosure, and the GDPR is more about just cookies so local storage or browser fingerprinting is also covered so you can't just stalk users without consent because you don't use cookies) or because these people's livelihood depends on being in breach of the GDPR so they try to justify their behavior or spread misinformation.

Do you have a similar setup? What combination of hardware and software do you use?

That is literally the law of the land. Read into castle doctrine and duty to retreat. Business owners have the legal right to defend their life on their property with deadly force if left no choice (i.e. a mob has surrounded you)

At any rate his tweet was ambiguous, he could have meant shooting naturally follows looting, not that he was ordering the guard to execute civilians.

Airflow isn't perfect but it's in active development and one of the biggest pros compared to other toolkits is that it's an Apache high-level project AND it's being offered by Google as Cloud Composer. This will make sure it sticks around and maintains development for some time.

> GDPR has its heart in the right place

I'm not sure we can jump to that conclusion. If the outcome of the GDPR was bewilderingly out of left field, and totally unpredictable, perhaps we could pass this off as being a big-hearted failure.

The thing that I struggle to get past, though, is just how many of us warned of these outcomes _before_ the regulations were implemented.

I fear very few had their heart in the right place. After all, it's pretty evident now, that those of of who saw this as a corporate effort to erect unnatural barriers to entry were correct. The people who designed the GDPR aren't idiots - they knew what they were doing too.

What I'm trying to say is that the number one song doesn't convey a lot of information. The genre of the number one song may be the most popular genre or one of the least popular genres; you can't know if you only look at the number one song. With your example, it could be possible that 0.1% of the population LOVES Beethoven's 5th symphony and exclusively plays it on repeat while the other 99.9% of the population hates classical music. Just to be clear, I'm not making any claims about what's popular or not, I'm just presenting an alternate hypothesis that would also result in the number one song not being representative of the overall population's preferences.

why haven't we been in lockdown every year until this deadly scourge has been exterminated?

and no, it's not that the current pandemic was more uncertain. even by january/february, it was clearly less contagious and deadly than the 1918 flu. we had good bounds on potential trajectory by early march, when many lockdowns were being implemented.
We didn't trust using the host cookie settings because most users don't know they exist.

I don't think Google has ever released the numbers on how many people have opted out, one can assume it's not 100%.

And you are clearly tracked across Google services at least, as anyone who has ever google something shopping related, then viewed a youtube video can tell you.

>The obvious answer is that monetized videos generally have a subject, and advertisements can be tied to that subject.

The obvious answer to me is that not everyone opted out. Businesses generally want to make money, collecting data clearly made them more money, or they wouldn't have done it. Now they make less on those who opted out.
These numbers are weird. Why do we count mosquito-borne diseases under mosquitoes but don't put communicable diseases under the tally for humans? It is especially curious considering mosquitoes don't know any better while humans have both the knowledge and ability to dampen how disease spreads through our population.
Not for this regulation. Business considerations do not matter, only technical ones.

> users don't care and are happy to click past a banner / trade their privacy for free things.

The GDPR explicitly mandates that consent should be freely given (it should not be more difficult to decline than to accept) and that consent should be informed, so you can't bury the information in 30 pages of ToS or privacy policies.

The problem is that there is currently zero enforcement around those things. I'd argue that this is very bad for the intent of the law because even when enforcement starts happening and declining consent becomes possible users would've already been trained to just click accept to everything.

A bit pedantic, no surprise there of course. It remains the case that you can't taste-and-adjust which makes baking a lot more difficult for people who work that way in the kitchen.

But, I will agree that people often don't think about the nuts and bolts of what is happening when they cook/bake, which leads to all sorts of magical thinking.
This is my sentiment. I'd feel frustrated as well if I was on their shoes (visited an interesting article, but it didn't work because of something silly).

It was also unexpected. I didn't even know localStorage could be broken by disabling cookies haha.
I'm actually considering using Airflow. Have never used it before, and I have the impression that setting up the required infrastructure could be problematic.

Since a lot of you use Airflow, I am curious about your experience with it:

1. Are you hosting Airflow yourselves or using a managed service?

1. a. If managed, which one? (Google Cloud Composer, Astronomer.io, something else?)

1. b. If self-hosted, how difficult was the setup? It seems daunting to get a stable setup (external database, rabbit or redis, etc.).

2. Do you use one operator (DockerOperator looks like the right choice) or do you allow yourself freedom in operators? Do you build your own?

3. How do you pass data from one task to the next? Do the tasks themselves have to be aware of external storage conventions or do you use the built-in xcom mechanism? It seems like xcom stores messages in the database, so you run the risk of blowing through storage capacity this way?
Well, essential means that a web service cannot technically work without it. For example, a session cookie.
There was a popular pushback against American tech in Europe at the time. Criticism of GDPR was conflated with criticism of that pushback.
I'm in a similar situation, and its all setup pre-tax. You elect it at the beginning of the year, and it effectively lowers your salary by the fraction you choose not to work.

Pretty neat, but its capped, otherwise I suspect there would be people who elect to work for 4 months a year (or something similar) for 1/3 of their salary.
You'd have a hard time arguing that breaking GDPR is the only way to stay in business. There are enough compliant news websites to undermine that argument.

The article I linked to makes claims only about the model it tests and since it actually links to an online implementation, anyone can try to reproduce the results and see for themselves. This is more than I can say about most chatter about ML.

This sounds like a setup for non-falsifiable beliefs.
> The majority of these aren't actually compliant.

The title of the article is "Two years in, GDPR defined by mixed signals, unbalanced enforcement".

So sure, maybe they're not complaint, but nobody is enforcing anyway.

Not sure if the parent poster has a custom setup, but there's now tooling to set this up yourself and use Microsoft as a secure proxy so you can access your host from anywhere in the world: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/online/referen...

You can also "cheat" and instead of registering your VS Code server instance with Microsoft and find the path in your ~/.vscode-server or whatever directory, and there should be a shell script that starts it and runs VS Code on port 8000. You can then set up any reverse proxy/TLS/auth layer in front of that and access it similarly.

I think the VS Online (now called VS Codespaces) experience is a bit better but the process of creating an account and logging in is messier.

The GDPR simply doesn’t apply to most internet users or most internet companies.
GDPR was known to be, is known to be, and will known to be a shit law that's not tied to reality. It did have some good (allowing you to know what they have on you in general, and asking them to delete some of that), but the rest is just bad, bad, bad.

I wish people would be rational when supporting privacy increasing things. GDPR could have been much better and it saddens me that it was ruined, and defended by, zealots.
It does. Most people concerned about the GDPR are concerned about third-party cookie tracking.

It also highlights how, in general, this is a hard problem. Compliance with this law without creating a dead-static page has subtle complications.
Could it have? I don't know. What is encouraging is that in the past they would have put the officers on paid leave and treated them with deference while the investigation took place. In this case they were promptly fired within 48 hours of the incident by the police chief.

There were also a lot of statements from police leadership that this incident wasn't acceptable or normal police procedure which is a drastic change from in the past where you had people staying silent or even defending and rationalizing the perpetrators actions.

The looting and rioting weaken a cause that after many years of being in the spotlight seemed to have reached a tipping point of overwhelming agreement.
> The majority of these aren't actually compliant

There is insufficient evidence attempting to comply with GDPR is worth the cost.

"for a while" suggests that this was ever a recommended choice, which is not the case. As others have pointed out, for password hashing you want a specialized algorithm, not a general purpose cryptographic hash function. This is true regardless of whether the hash function is "compromised;" it just wasn't designed for that application in the first place.

Algorithms designed for password hashing are intentionally both compute and memory intensive, to make guessing slower, whereas general cryptographic hash functions are by contrast intended to be fast, as most applications will want that. The idea is that password hashing algorithms should be fast enough to keep up with a human and no faster; if you already know he password the performance is not a hindrance but if you have to guess it makes doing so impractical.
