That seems to be ignoring that the discussion these employees were wanting to have was about the societal impacts of their work, not some abstract discussion about societal issues - I don't think it's unreasonable to expect people to be exposed to a discussion on the societal impacts of their work.

Especially when the impacts are as extreme as murder (Kenosha), genocide (Myanmar), or furthering conspiracy theories (Qanon)
This is an interesting point, some jurisdictions may indeed only require the notification in an ambiguous way, so regardless of whether it’s 2 way recording or 1 way it may be covered.

Though this raises the question of whether companies that don’t accept 2 way recording but mandate 1 way recordings to their advantage are companies you should do business with.
It's also worth noting that at least for TikTok, its audience is young and left leaning. It is wildly popular with young people. It was where individuals organized buying up tickets to Trump rallies to inflate expectations during the pandemic [1], something which is known to have angered Trump.

Something as targeted as this ban seems like Trump deplatforming his critics under the excuse of national security. Plus, it's happening right before the election.

The difference is whose pocket the money goes into. If it goes to the government, or the company, that the official represents, it's a fee. If the official pockets the money, it's a bribe (or possibly fraud / embezzlement).

Good rule of thumb: always get a receipt. No receipt, it's a bribe. If you're given a genuine-looking receipt, then you can probably get off the hook as a victim of fraud.

Also, this sentence a couple of paragraphs down:

> Though buying a 747 plane and blowing it up may have been more efficient, Christopher Nolan later seems to insinuate that it may not have been the cheaper option

seems to muddle the waters somewhat.

Right but I’m the context of antivirus you’re executing unconstrained data in an unconstrained environment, in appsec you can handle data correctly rather than rely on a third party product that can’t contextualise or assess the impact of a payload on your application.

By datasheet, do you mean the equivalent of a document detailing all the innards and details of the IC's down to the Opcodes/datapath?

Because I've gotten basically down to apparently what you're to write drivers for OSes with, and I know there is the annoying "teehee, let's implement OpenGL calls in firmware so the open source software is a stupid passthrough interface to the IC" which is understandably frustrating given I'd hoped to use my Pi to finally get around to driving graphics hardware to do something useful I can grok, but it's far from documentationless unless I'm missing something fundamental.
I can only hope that Autodesk has analytics running on F360 activities and sees the uptick in exports here...

I wonder what's the chance of failure on that kind of shoot. Redoing the CGI explosion to tweak it would be likely cheaper than 2 planes. Or is there a "plane failed to explode nicely" insurance?
Nobody likes working with Nvidia, and nobody trusts Nvidia to continue licensing ARM designs and patents under the same generous licensing terms that ARM was. There's several different ARM licensees that make their own designs or repackage ARM designs in custom SoCs. Nvidia would materially benefit from, say, refusing to license designs and patents to competing silicon vendors. It would take Tegra from "that thing the Switch uses" to the only option available for smartphone vendors.

You know how everyone hates Qualcomm because they more or less pushed every other SoC vendor out of the market with aggressive patent licensing terms? Imagine that but worse.
I don't think so. The clever thing Epic did here was to openly talk about how little of their revenue came from iOS. Who would want to build an engine for the (difficult to deal with) <5% of gamers that use Apple hardware?

I'm pretty sure there is a good reason why Epic got early support from Microsoft. As much as this is about the app store tax, it is also a massive PR play to convince game developers to shun Apple.

Just as a hypothetical, filming a movie that hundreds of millions of people will enjoy, and saving thousands of hours of expensive professional labor, might be one good way to recycle it :)

More seriously, is the metal on an old airframe of high quality? I'd wonder whether the accumulated decades of wear and weathering might make it hard to recycle for anything like another airplane. But this isn't my field, so I'm just guessing.

You'll probably enjoy the rest of the author's blog then. He really does his best to focus on systems, modes of production, and modes of organization. This is has been the standard for modern historians for quite a long time, but most pop history is still stuck in a "Great people, great ideas, great battles" framing. The author of this blog complains about this too at some point (I think somewhere in his Sparta series).
> A typical USB flash device won't be any more reliable than an SD card, though it might be better cooled.

That’s not strictly true, as the USB storage controller abstracts away the NAND and can manage wear leveling and free blocks. There are also more “enterprise class” USB sticks than SD cards, and the USB3 interface to USB drives is much faster than pretty much any SD card interface.

Best SD cards and best USB drives are Sandisk Extreme Pro, built entirely differently from their other lines. While Samsung Evo SSDs are top-of-the-line in each budget class, stay far away from their Evo SD cards which shamelessly borrow off the SSD reputation then drive it to the ground. They all tend to go read-only after undergoing “extended” writes.

Suggestion: if you’re using Linux, stay away from the ext family of file systems when using SD cards. Use nilfs or f2fs, and XFS if you absolutely must use a journaled fs.

They're worth a good bit less than single-digit millions. For context, you can pick up an airworthy 15 year old 777 right now for ~5 million dollars.

Last time I spoke with a widebody broker a few months ago, an old 747 with no equipment was a smidge less than $100k. Though with COVID, airworthy 747 freighters are 30-50 million....

It's pretty easy to establish the malware attackers' responsibility. But the extent of the hospital's responsibility is much harder to establish, especially across all types of potential attacks. Basically, it's not easy to establish precisely which types of attacks a hospital needs to be prepared for in order for them to not be considered negligent.

In this case, I don't see many details, but it does sound like they simply couldn't access patient data and thus were transferring patients. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't have continued to provide emergency treatments that don't require networked computerized machinery.

But I'd want to know more about the attack before I could conclude that the hospital was negligent. Surely for every hospital there is some attack with sufficient sophistication to disrupt service at the hospital.
Not my intention for this to come off like a plug but Android has been doing this for quite a while now. It simply shows any process being ran as a silent notification and then goes away when it's done. I agree keeping a running log is probably unintuitive even for an advanced phone user but the way Android has pulled this off is surprisingly easy to wrap your head around.

None of those cancel options work, that's the point. There is no record or indication anywhere about the child's subscription. You have the same level of access to see, or cancel, what my child subscribes to as I do.

That is... absolutely none.

The only option is to open a support request, and they will cancel a subscription for you (it takes a couple of days). Gee, thanks Apple.

If my credit card is being charged a recurring subscription, I should damn well be able to view or cancel that charge. Period. It's my credit card, and my account.

It reminds me of the gym membership cancellation scams. The harder companies can make it to cancel, the less likely people will.

There's no way that $200 million is break even for that movie.

The budget alone was $200 million, which doesn't factor in marketing...which will probably be higher than normal since they had to run a marketing campaign multiple times as it was pushed back throughout the months. Often times that alone can be as much as the movie budget.

Burning the OTP will prevent you from starting the 3A or 4 in OTG mode; you can still do that in software by dynamically loading the dwc2 overlay once Linux has booted up and specifying the mode=peripheral parameter (then loading the kernel module).

What he actually said was "efficient" not "cost effective".
Your own sources, if you dig into them, conveniently split generation costs (of which Lazard's cited report says that wind and solar generation is competitive only when subsidized by the US government) with storage costs. If you factor storage costs into the equation, your economy would look way different. Lazard has a report on storage costs too.

I'm withdrawing from further discussion due to your petty manner to use insults instead of arguments.
> They got dozens of servers with patient data hacked and encrypted and had to shutdown their intensive care and reroute patients elsewhere.

> What do you think?

I don't understand why this apparently seems so obvious to you. I think I would need more information about the attack, the hospital's preparations for such an attack, and the legal and industry-standard security expectations for such a hospital.

The simple fact that an attack took down a hospital's computer systems is not sufficient to conclude that the hospital was negligent in its security. Surely a sufficiently sophisticated actor (e.g. a state) could take down the computers at most hospitals if they chose to.
I guess Cinemablend isn't going to fact check this claim?

It's typically much cheaper to do anything like a plane crash in a computer (or models + computer). Even 20 years ago, when I was bidding visual effects, I bet it would have been cheaper. [Note, I haven't seen the movie, so maybe there are 50 angles of it exploding, in which case it might not be]

The cost of a mothballed plane is probably trivial compared to the daily cost of Tenet's movie set. You've got all of the actors (or maybe stunt people in this case) and crew members, so their salaries, food, hotels, costs of being on location and so on. The cost of renting the location itself. Constructing things you're going to destroy, cleaning up, etc.

My guess is that Nolan wanted to do it this way because it's more fun. Nolan knows it's cheaper to do it in CGI, but blowing stuff up in CGI is boring. He gets to sit in a desk chair and look at something blowing up on a screen instead of seeing it IRL. And he can call the shots because he's Nolan, he directed, wrote and produced the thing.

It didn't break even yet. Looks like's its maybe half way.

The ticket price is split with the theater, so the movie only gets part. You need the box office receipts to be larger (usually 2x+) than the production + marketing costs.

From the article "Given its $200 million production budget, the movie needs to reach approximately $400 million worldwide to break even and closer to $450 million to get out of the red and into the black."

There doesn't have to be a use for an evolutionary trait. It can be an utterly useless feature. The fact that it persists in this fleeting moment we co-exist with it in this particular million years, only shows that a feature hasn't been rendered extinct. Yet.

But of course, I believe that biologists can construct a cladistic tree that can calibrate how long a particular trait might have been around.

There's no basis for calling it a failure (or success) since many theaters aren't open and the ones that are have a limited capacity. And there's no covid box office precedent.

They clearly didn't release it thinking it might perform up to pre-covid standards. They knew they were sacrificing a big opening and they obviously figured they'd take a hit but make most of it up with a longer run, bluray, rerelease, etc.

You're exaggerating a little but I agree. I think your example with the FD map binder is a little weird though because that is the one thing that is worse than a maps app with real-time traffic updates. That's a killer feature especially during rush hour. The suburban department I volunteered in was known for having the second worst traffic in the US behind Los Angeles, so it's a little bit of a special circumstance.

KWin does (did?) this as well. I think the biggest problem is that if you open a new "window" it doesn't know that you want it to show as a new tab on the same window. I think that this is largely because X doesn't actually know which window opened the new window.

I used the KWin tabs a fair amount, but they didn't fill the same use case as browser tabs. It would be interesting to see this implemented, of course you would also need to seriously patch the browser.
Mainlining a driver means it will be immediately available to users of a huge number of architectures. It will be improved by other Linux kernel contributors.

Viruses spread exponentially. It only takes one case to start a massive outbreak. No matter how many cases there are today, anywhere that 'reopens' will have unacceptably high case numbers sooner rather than later.

Nowhere can return to what used to be normal ('reopen') until enough people have been vaccinated--with a truly effective vaccine--to prevent new outbreaks from spreading. This will take years or decades.

It’s not clear what method you used but for the benefit of others: Don’t install Ubuntu, it doesn’t have the needed closed source firmware blobs and isn’t compiled with some of the kernel modules the Pi uses. Instead burn a copy of the preinstalled Ubuntu Raspberry Pi disk images to an SD card.

No more or less "wasteful" than anything else that happens in big budget movie production. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent to tell a story. If people like the story the movie investors make a profit. If not, they take a bath.

Of course someone else could tell the same story cheaper. Anyone with a smartphone can make a movie. The cheapest production cost generally isn't what people value in art and entertainment.

A relationship is like a moral contract. Traditionally, the contract is that you should sexually satisfy your partner in exchange for their fidelity.

Of course, in civilized countries, you are now free to choose another agreement, including "fuck whoever you want" to slave contracts if that's your kink. None of them are legally binding since you are free to do what you want with your body, including "cheating".

There are a few remnant with regards to marriage. For example in France, both cheating and not satisfying your partner are cause for divorce. It is mostly symbolic though, "winning" the case doesn't give you much rights.

Since you clearly don’t get the context, the Republicans made this a giant issue when Obama had an open Supreme Court seat towards the end of his term.
