Which part of the process described is illegal? The GDPR explicitly requires[1] controllers to verify subjects' identities in an access request:

The controller should use all reasonable measures to verify the identity of a data subject who requests access, in particular in the context of online services and online identifiers.

Taxes.

Carbon emissions are externalities, regulating them is entirely compatible, if not mandatory, with maintaining a free market.

Why do you agree to pay taxes? Oh wait, you don't. You are forced to pay them.

"Some regions" are just low-hanging fruit.

Only if you stop eating, which you would probably be forced to do if you were to give up on hydrocarbon-based products such as fertilizer. Also, you'll die.

Alternatively, if you were to just "shit somewhere else" instead, you will need a way to store and transform that shit. That's exactly what carbon sequestration is.

> All cases I know are from people who made enormous contributions to their respective fields before they could enrol in a PhD program.

This is highly dependent on the field and the particular group you work with. Most PhD students I know came straight from bachelor’s and did maybe a year of research in undergrad but with no significant contributions, some did actual research with a group, some have a paper or two published. But yeah, it’s pretty much impossible to get into a PhD program without a bachelor’s degree.

Livejournal was a hotbed of dubious fanfic (shall we say) in which one or more characters was underage. Maybe such a thing is technically not illegal but even so, many left that platform once it started to develop a reputation for it.

I actually arrived in New Zealand with mud under my walking boots once - we had been trecking on Rarotonga, Cook Islands the day before, and I had not read the customs rules for NZ before filling in the paper slip, shortly before getting off the plane (if I remember correctly, it was approximately 10 years ago) - I had to wash the soles in a shallow tub with some sort of squishy pillow in it.

Yes, it's hard for EU authorities to enforce its laws on a company that has no EU presence or revenues to threaten. At least the Luxembourg DPA is doing something about it, unlike the Irish DPA that deliberately does nothing (or worse, colludes with Facebook to help them skirt GDPR with highly dubious and most likely legally invalid semantic contortions).

There is two densities to care about when talking about energy sources. Energy density per volume unit and energy density per mass unit.

Hydrogen has a very high energy density per mass unit (the highest of the chemical reaction energy sources). But lower energy density per volume than Li.

The two figures matter for different use cases, cargo-ships and aviation want to optimize for energy density per mass, while small passenger transport (e.g. scooters, cars...) wants to optimize for energy density per volume.

I agree entirely that there are many different skill sets involved in building a web application, and I also very much agree that there are no universal rules for how to organise the team building a web application.

I'm just arguing, following the spirit of the article we're discussing here, that there is no inherent reason the same person can't have both front-end and back-end programming skills, and can't perform both of those functions proficiently.

Of course there are many non-programming skills involved as well, but I don't accept your premise that a back-end developer should necessarily know how to design a database or that a front-end developer should necessarily know how to do all the design work for a UI. Plenty of web applications aren't backed by a database at all, so the first claim is clearly not universally true. Plenty of organisations have people dedicated to their design and branding, and that might be shared across all media, so again it's clearly not always the case that someone doing front-end programming must also be able to handle those aspects in order to be competent or useful.

Given that front- and back-end programming are much closer in the skills required than either is to user interface design, graphic design, creating digital art, understanding accessibility and usability issues, designing and maintaining an efficient database or system administration, among other relevant skill sets, it seems entirely reasonable to me that a project might want to have the same team responsible for all programming, and have different people doing things like the UI design and the database and system administration. Another team might have people with different mixes of skills and might use them more along the lines you described. All projects and all project teams are different.
Yes, true. Not exactly what you are looking for, but closer:

Except the little fact that Android Java has become Google's J++, forking the Java community, while creating lots of pain for any Java library author that would like to support Android as deployment target.

Google had the opportunity to fix up their screw up by buying Sun, which they didn't, most likely hoping that Sun would sink silently, and they would get away with their little power games and industrial torpedoes.

Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for us Java devs, as I wouldn't like the Android architects to design Java, Oracle did not thought the same way.
Amazing book. Truly astounding sequence of events.

Greatest irony of all, they named their firm "Long-term Capital Management", while taking hugely leveraged short-term positions ($1 trillion dollars worth of derivatives backed by about $100 billion or so assets) that were beyond the understanding of anyone else. Didn't last 4 years before they blew. They did show 40% annual returns when they started and I guess that's what kept them going without much regulation. But man, did they crash hard. Investors who were returned their money after a year or 2, and those who were turned down from even investing must have thanked their Gods for saving them from absolute destruction.

There is another book by Michael Lewis (who also wrote "The Big Short") called "The Liar's Poker", where he talks about his time at Salomon Brothers and how they collapsed in a very similar fashion. Highly levered derivatives with a magic formula that has worked well (so far..). It's fascinating how they were allowed to do what they did. Open gambling with client's money, and no repercussions on loosing it all. "Blowing up a customer" was apparently common and chalked up to a rookie's mistake. "Baptism by fire". How did the rookies even get access to millions of dollars of money to bet on crazy derivatives!!

I feel that every time a major upset in the financial markets lands on us, it is because some group of really talented people managed to convince everyone that they discovered something that no one else has and have "cracked the market" by showing consistently high returns for a period of time, and gain access to huge pools of capital. Only, after a few years the market turns around, showing a side of things that they did not take into account and the whole thing goes belly up, market crashes, loads of people loose money, mostly its everyone else but that group (leverage, borrowing, access to someone else's capital etc).

And because everyone who was supposed to keep them in check did not do it because despite it being their job not to, they did take them for their word, they try to cover it all up by paying the very people who caused all the trouble and who were supposed to watch out for all this.

Banking world seems to have a lot of conflict of interest all around. It is much better now, with lots more rules and regulations, but it is still there.

Leaving a bad review is petty?

It’s people like you that we have this problem where giving someone 3 out of 5 stars can get them kicked off the platform. It’s because of people like you who won’t honestly review and rate things, giving them the benefit of the doubt, weighing the review more positively because they compensated for it.

No. It’s not petty.

They get 1 star because they messed up my order. Simple as that. Give me what I ordered and then I’ll consider giving them 2-5 stars. The fact that they fixed the issue does not even need to come into play here. They fucked up. They get 1 star. Simple. Easy. Done.

Mention that they fixed the issue, that they compensated for the meal, whatever. But leave the 1 star.

The world would be a better place if everything was rated properly, with a majority being 3 stars.
It applies. Practical enforceability is another thing completely.
Recently Indian government blocked Tik-Tok. Does anyone know if they gave a warning to the users or the app developers?

One can argue that governments should have the right to censorship when its a matter of urgency or emergency or national security (though this is debatable), does the same power lie with Facebook (or any other platform) to exercise a censorship on its users? It goes back to the big debate whether they are accountable for what gets shared on their platform.

I agree, what you describe is what terrorists think. Obviously, at some point in their life they persuade themselves that their political goals justify the intentional killing of innocent civilians. They go at great lengths with these justifications precisely because they are so obviously flawed. Attempts to justify their actions involve a mix of denying the Doctrine of Double Effects, speaking of necessary sacrifices, and of portraying innocent victims as guilty collaborators.

Somewhat uncharitable reading of gp (unless there was an edit):

> I think that it’s time everyone used a password manager to generate really really long passwords. I set all passwords to 64 characters or the maximum allowable characters.

So, it's not long or random, but rather long and random.

That said, I'd advocate aiming for 96 to 128 bits of entropy - beyond that you just have a password that's tricky to type in, in cases where you cannot copy and paste (eg: boot password).

So for large and small letter, numbers and a handful (10) of special characters, that comes to 21 random characters (Log2(72^21)~129).
