What's the marketing budget of Purism? What's the total budget of Purism? In which stores are these phones available?

Consumers can't buy what they don't even know about. Popularity requires availability. It requires awareness. These things are very costly. There are huge barriers to entry, especially in the smartphone market.

No, they block partners from telling about the fees. That’s the subject of this article.
It's a geopolitical issue, probably not one of hate speech.

India is not concerned about US Government spying on them, so much.

All large Chinese companies have strong ties to the CCP (they have internal staffers who are party members, essentially acting as internal party oversight). Ergo, TT is definitely an organ of the state. It's just a matter of 'how much' in practicality.

So TT gets the ban.
Back then he was known for his libertarian views e.g. pro gun views, as well. You don't have to agree with someone on everything. Its likely I don't agree with Chinese developers on communism. Doesn't mean their FOSS contributions e.g. their PRs are invalid.
The root cause is root cause.
True, but Markets aren't just constrained to specialists, and if by virtue of more people becoming developer-esque, more people are buying into there being an issue with Apple's business model, then there's an issue with Apple's business model.

We're just now breaking into more widespread adoption of microelectronics as a fact of life for the public where the newer generations have no concept of there not being these things. What was okay in the early adoption phase isn't once you start getting established.
I'm turning your argument around: why go around and invent fake conspiracy theories when actual conspiracies are a thing and are nothing like the fake ones?

Java tzdata is now a separate thing probably because of this:

Keep the JRE/JDK the same to reduce the risk of code behaviour changes, but allow updates of the 'dynamic' data.
By adding that timeout you just created a user-visible behavior that nobody asked for and people will only notice in production while dealing with the most complicated use-cases.

> There are phones with user replaceable batteries available. They aren't great sellers.

It's hard to vote with my wallet on replacable batteries because I already have to vote on other issues. In today's market my priorities are 3-4GB of ram (which is insane, but that's what it takes to prevent my launcher from swapping out, and it's really frustrating when it's swapped out), 3.5mm headphone jack, and usb-c. Once you have those three things, I would prefer a removable battery, but whatever. Also, apparently you need to specify decent vibration, because motorola doesn't have it.

The flaw in you comparison is thinking that whoever is in control of this will think in your well being and not actually cheat.

This exact thread is over this "good dictator" being caught cheating and thinking about their own well being first, with their users being damaged and treated as second-class citizens.

The company have a great marketing strategy that makes you and others first you are first class, while in reality their goals and objectives comes first in detriment to your expectations about it.

But somehow this marketing campaign is so good, that even when caught in the act, a lot of their users are still in denial.

BTW, about mall cops and "pre-crime"; mall cops cant arrest anybody before they commit a said "crime". Also, the definition of what is a crime and not is pretty dangerous and used by people with malice over and over to resort some form of control and manipulation over public opinion (see Bush "War on terror" for instance used to bomb Saddam and cap citizens rights and get reelection, which is basically "War on drugs" 2.0).
Perhaps you could print non-tabulated numbers until you run close to the end of line and be counting the characters with %n. Then you can print a new line, set your counter to zero, and continue.
Facebook is no stranger to picking political winners and losers. In 2016, it seems to have bet the farm on a Trump victory (By being, and then continuing to be incredibly lax on enforcing its rules against his account.)

It knows which side its bread is buttered, and is not going to rock the boat against a sitting president.
Yea, everyone is different. The point I was trying to make is more that dedicating your prime waking hours 5 days a week to a single employer is actually a lot when you think about it.

I was incredibly driven about 7 years ago... I was a founder of a startup and had really lofty aspirations. I told my wife that it was very possible that we would be millionaires by the time we hit 40.

Fast forward to today and that did not happen. The startup is no more, but mainly due to burnout. We made money and did well, but not well enough. I never made my millions, but did have a substantial aqui-hire opportunity that I turned down that would have almost gotten me there.

Once that part of my life played out, I decided to make a 180 turn... I'm not working to exhaustion anymore and take a tortoise approach to my career. I've found that as long as I'm consistent and have my eye on my goals, it doesn't matter how hard I work outside of my day job. I just need to be consistent and take advantage of bursts of motivation.

I've accomplished a surprising amount with this approach. I'm not stressed, I have the best quality of life that I've ever had and work is generally fun. This is what my goal should have been from the beginning.

Imagine if it costs $2.00 for a 200g Kit Kat bar and ten years later it still costs $2.00 for a Kit Kat bar but they’ve shrunk the size to 160g. Size is an attribute and companies are working feverishly to alter attributes while staying as close to a price point as possible (consumers are much more focused on objective price point than subjective attributes and largely ignore objective measures like grams in a chocolate bar).

There is massive inflation, just not in first order pricing but rather in second order pricing-to-[insert attribute] ratio.

I think even casually observing your purchases over time will yield a conclusion that you are spending approximately the same for “less” in most (but not all) areas of your life.

> whats the very best SSD i can buy 1TB for under or near $500

The problem is that you have already made some kind of decision that $500 is a reasonable threshold for getting 1TB of SSD, and some assumption that you stand to gain anything at all by paying extra for the same capacity. That's kinda backwards; you should start by figuring out how much performance and endurance you need out of your 1TB of storage, just like you've apparently already figured out that 1TB is the capacity you need.

You might be fine with a $99 1TB SSD, or maybe you need a $320 1TB SSD. But it's pretty odd to expect a purchasing guide to be a useful tool to figure out how best to overpay for your storage.
Forcing an update without asking is like raping someone and claiming that they'll get used to it.

In my country there is a sort of obligation to get 10% of value in case you find something valuable but is more applied to found money. Many times people just return what they have found without taking any reward. This could be extrapolated to bug bounties as well. How much would Slack or its clients potentially loose, if this bug was exploited? I think that everybody could agree on some sum, lets say 200k USD. In that case 20k should be paid.

Another approach is to take invoice for last security audit and simply pay the whole amount of that invoice to the researcher. If none was ever done (good God!), just some usual quote for pen testing the targeted application could be applied.

HackerOne could also enforce minimum payouts per exploit category.

I spent countless hours fiddling with git tutorials, the best branching, workflow.. Nothing was even close to when I had to actual work with it on a tight rope.

Curiosity intellect is mostly dead baggage in ones head, knowing how to apply ideas as tools, to actually do something, and even have it in mind when you work so that you know you wrote enough, commit will be long, or merge will be ugly. It all balances out on itself and you actually feel light and capable.

So no, I don't believe it will prevent using "%n" in memory that you have made writable. But this isn't really an issue because typically a format string exploit would have no way to arbitrarily call mprotect.

That said, there are other ways to abuse format string bugs apart from %n, for example "Direct Parameter Access" to get stack cookies, and the like:

As someone who has generally tried to take your current approach and has generally been rewarded for it, yours is a refreshing perspective. There's a persistent voice in the back of my head that questions whether I'm acting out of fear, rationality, or just following a happy stasis. It's always reassuring to see the other side of this.

Those features are interesting, but how much can it scale? What performance (read and write) can I expect? How easy is it to update a schema? How does it handle pagination or queries with really large result sets? What's the limits on the size of data I can store in it (total, per field, per row, etc.) And how does it handle security? Is everything encrypted at rest and in transit? Can the index work over encrypted fields? Etc.
Thanks for this. I know absolutely nothing about neuroscience, but I was very skeptical when he claimed that memories could be saved and replayed. The idea of encoding and the actual mechanism of our memories is really intruiging though.
A too short timeout is more problematic than no timeout because it breaks the application.

Let's say 10 seconds, typical intuitive but bad timeout. This will cause requests to fail for no reason other than users are in Asia or Africa, high latency. This will break the application when it's used or deployed across datacenters because high latency. This will cause requests to fail when the server is a bit busy (couple seconds more to process requests). Worse, it will cause chain reactions under load, creating more retries and even more load, causing other services/servers to timeout too.

Better go for a long timeout. A long timeout doesn't break the application.
By reset, you mean the effect lasts after the nature time ends?

Because if not, while walks are nice, my goal isn't exactly to have twice as long of a subjective experience but 60% of it is parks.
Yes! It’s exactly this. I’m fine being unproductive, but at least I want to be able to reflect on my day and remember doing fun things (as opposed to dopamine roulette activities like Reddit).

> You haven't managed to correctly communicate the fact that the person was woken up in the middle of the night.

If somebody wanted to communicate that they were woken up in the middle of the night, they could use this perfectly fine sentence:

"I was woken up in the middle of the night."

Communication wouldn't break down just because everybody didn't have an identical reference point w/r/t timestamps in relation to daylight cycle. Something we don't have today anyway, by the way. When is dinner, for example? (conservative answer: 16:00 to 23:00).

I am constantly amazed at what caused progress in my life. Sometimes it is working to the bone. More often it is knowing when to press and when to let things breathe.

One of the most powerful lessons I’ve internalized in my life is that negotiations are often won in the silence between gambits, not in the offers themselves.

Sometimes letting things take the time they need makes them go faster than trying to rush.

Well, unfortunately, unlike Elon Musk I didn't have rich parents, connected friends, or the luck to be part of a really great startup idea, so I don't really have 100M to spend on my own fantasies.

But the fact that someone is willing to put money into a fantasy will not make it a reality. As I said elsewhere, I am truly hopeful that much good will come out of Neuralink in the area of helping people with motor problems and prosthetics. I absolutely commend this goal and am happy to see more people invest in this area.

But that doesn't mean money will magically supplant the decades or more of research we still need to do to until we can meaningfully even think about what thought means at a physical level.

And just because Musk has delusions of grandeur about the way he will change the world, enough so as to put his money where his fantasies lie, is no reason to start believing in the same things.

I have a theory that ~50% of the games/graphics industry uses row-vector notation, rather than the column-vector style that is more common default in mathematics, because when RenderMan was created typesetting tools were still so difficult. So, it was much easier to typeset M*[x,y,z,w] than to typeset a vertical column vector. (Much like it still is in this textbox).

Direct3D 1.0 and several other early trendsetters in 3D graphics took a lot of inspiration from RenderMan. And so, along with coordinate system orientations, vector notation became yet another endian-war in 3D. Now that typesetting is much easier, column notation is slowly gaining ground in the name of consistency with the math community.
The Rust filesystem API works (or once did) as I described. This can render an application unusable when trying a network filesystem or storage device that's unavailable.

I've had a similar experience. There is something about scarcity of time that breeds discipline. Whenever I go through a period of life where I have to spend a huge amount of time on some particular task project I always think "man, when this is over I'm going to be able to use all this time to do X,Y,Z. It's gonna be great!" And then the project ends and I essentially waste all of my newly found free time. I end up accomplishing less, even on my side projects somehow.
