I’m not sure Mindgeek can be held responsible for that though. They don’t associate with studios that are known to be unethical and break contact with unethical studios immediately. What more would you have them do?

I’d say it’s analogous to the NCAA. They do everything in their power to punish immoral institutions but there remains hordes of players that take steroids, haze others, sustain concussions, etc. Should the NCAA disband by the same logic you’re asking Mindgeek to disband by?
>Are you aware that smoking cannabis is absolutely nothing like rape?

You severely missed the point. The comparison was between the relatively lack of outcry over cannabis smokers who presumably enable atrocities carried out by drug cartels in Colombia and elsewhere.

Don't a lot of philosophers invent new terms, tho?

They want to avoid all the baggage that old expressions accumulate over the centuries and start fresh.
Like many institutions, universities ignore all complaints through regular channels (and intentionally delay any consideration of action until after the troublemakers have graduated); the most effective leverage students seem to have is creating bad publicity, which affects the university's bottom line.

The lesson they are teaching their students is to be utterly cynical about going through the system, and to believe that creating a public scene or disturbance is the best way to convince organizations (or anyone else) to change their policies.

Students probably aren't being creative enough in this regard; there are lots of ways to achieve or threaten bad publicity, such as working with media.
I am sorry you will have spell it out for me because I still don’t understand; what were the distribution terms she wanted? And how would those terms have resulted in different outcomes?
All cause mortality of getting 5 or less hours of sleep a night is also about 2X though, and along with the mortality risk comes a massive decrease in quality of life. Obviously non-medical methods should be tried first (When I was having major issues with sleep I was able to get it under control with the help of a specialized therapist), but for someone who is having serious issues sleeping the pills can be the lesser evil.
Because it wasn't wrong at the time of the acquisition, IG as a company had 13 employees and 10m DAU, everyone was clowning on FB for wasting their money. The company would have went nowhere without FBs network effect, after all it's entire feed was based on pictures posted on FB. FB is just a political scapegoat just like Goog, if we were interested in antitrust we'd be knocking on AT&T's door and not giving them more grant funding every year.
In my experience, this isn't true. I worked at a company that fired a lot of the best people they had. The reason? Marketing people took over the leadership of the company and they thought skilled engineers who were making more money could be replaced by cheaper "resources".
Learn basic CG theory. Implement ray tracing and rasterization. Understand the math; I'll come up quite often.
Learn how the GPU works. Learn a graphics API, like OpenGL.

For the level you see in Cyberpunk, you need to learn modern, physically-based techniques. This requires a bit more math, though nothing you wouldn't see in a CS degree. My favorite reference on PBR techniques is the PBR book, which is free online. Applying some of these techniques in a real-time setting is of course another challenge.

However, all this probably takes a ton of time and math and low-level programming knowledge for a newcomer.
Funny, I actually wrote a relatively simple auth system that does meet NIST guidelines (by default) and some other security requirements. It sends a JWT token for application usage and can register multiple applications for support, not full OAuth etc. The main application it's used with also integrates into other third party apps, so needed a simple means in-app for auth.

I tried to get permission to develop/publish this application as open-source, but was never able to do so. It's now got a few rough edges only because without the public need/perception some bits aren't as well flushed out beyond our internal use/needs and or the needs of our deployed instances. Not to mention a few requirements to satisfy a difficult architect/lead on another team, and they wound up not using the app anyway.

It's not too hard to meet some guidelines... I wound up using a simple KV pattern for data storage so I could target different adapters, add overlays for caching and encryption etc. There's some cool bits and some muddled bits.

Not that uncommon for large companies to bring their IP space in house to multihome and load-balance traffic across multiple providers. If they are routing traffic back to random data centers for centralized filtering, it makes sense how it could be coming from different regions. I'm more interested in what made your application sensitive to this. The duplicate packets does sound bizarre. Maybe a mirroring issue or firmware issue.
A lot of biphasic sleepers claim to do one 4.5h session and one 1.5h session, and that it's like a hack on getting less sleep. You might be one of those. I need 8 in either mode.

Crypto being easier to steal wouldn't really change the legal obligations of a wealth management firm acting as its custodian. There can be a massive paper trail, and blockchain trail, to prove that too. I'm not sure I really see a distinction here. It's also not impossible to steal, wealth managers do it from time to time, it's embezzlement, and the banks make the person whole. It happened to my grandfather: His manager at the bank converted assets to money and took the money. They got caught, and my grandfather got his money back.

It's not about physical presence. It's about whether the EU could do something to punish you. For every big company that is true. For example the EU can force Visa/MasterCard to stop doing business with you.

If you're small enough, then the EU won't bother doing anything.

If you don't even depend on any 3rd party that is vulnerable to EU will then you can fully ignore everything. That can be tricky to achieve though. No common money transfer methods and you must be self-hosting.

Also, all of this isn't new. The US has been enforcing its will globally in a similar fashion for a long time.

The thing you need to know about users is that they have no idea these seller reviews exist because they are outside of the product page for the product they are buying. Furthermore, most visitors to Amazon have no idea that their products are being fulfilled by different people and not by Amazon. They think that Amazon has a warehouse for 100% of the products they sell on their site, and these other sellers are non-obvious to the vast majority of users. When they see things related to "sellers" on a product page, they just think that means the manufacturer. They don't get that any scammer can "open a store" on Amazon because Amazon goes to great lengths to make the experience seem like it's all 1 big store. Sure there are weasel words all over the site that point out that Amazon is only an intermediary, but almost no non-technical user understands this. Thus, leaving bad seller feedback anywhere other than the product page allows Amazon to keep scamming users through these 3rd party sellers.
This is a really cool idea.

It is reducing the number of supported configurations that need to be tested, which reduces the cost of shipping software updates. It seems to go hand in hand with making the root filesystem read-only. Users tend to be happy when their system is reliable.

Perhaps this is incrementally progressing towards constant security updates like Chrome has had for some time.
`softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer` is slightly more elegant!

> You used to be able to find forums and similar for almost anything;

When google removed the option to search discussion boards I knew the internet was changing and the changes were going to be bad. Google discussion search was the most powerful tool to find real world information. You could put in the model number of some product you knew nothing about (e.g. a camera or boat motor) and discussion search results would reveal many different forum threads where professionals and aficionados had discussed the product in detail; those same forums were already hard to find and a search for "boat motor forum" wouldn't necessarily bring you to the same forums and even if so, requires many extra steps to arrive at the same thread.

How long are you willing to let the free market try and solve it? It seems like the free market has been solving this for, what, a couple decades in Amazon's case?

It seems like the free market is the problem here, and just continuing what's already been tried is going to give us more of the same results.

What you’re referring to is (and I’m over simplifying here) glucose versus sucrose.

Potatoes have glucose, and aren’t sweet.

Twinkies and the like are full of sugar aka sucrose (which is half fructose) which is the real issue.

Avoiding all food with fructose is a good idea. Not only is it bad because only your liver can process it (none of your other cells can use it, unlike glucose) but fructose is in some emerging studies to prohibit lepton signaling. Leptin is the hormone that tells your brain you’re full and no longer need to eat. Many obese people have impaired signaling.

Food addition is not a good term. Food addictive addiction is better. No one would eat the cookies if it wasn’t for the sugar. Or get addicted to coffee without the caffeine.

Sugar is the same as alcohol - it has calories, sure, so could be considered an energy source. But it has no other nutritional value. Yet it is regarded as a food.

One cigarette is not harmful, yet we know smoking everyday will cause you some ill effects. It’s the same with sugar. An acute dose in itself is not dangerous. But over time it does.

People get scared of lawsuits, especially if they're from a very litigious country like the EU. Companies lobbied against the law hard, spreading the idea that any visitor of your website could sue you for millions because you sent a cookie header. Reality is much less scary for most decent people.

Technically, the law applies to everyone worldwide, regardless of location. However, if you have no business in the EU and don't plan to expand your current business operations to the EU, you don't need to worry.

Hell, if you don't meet the requirements, the relevant enforcement departments generally give you plenty time to implement the necessary requirements or block access if you're a dick. The exception, of course, is data brokers and huge companies like Facebook or Google where the impact is much larger.

The GDPR doesn't expose you to lawsuits from anyone but the privacy monitoring instances of EU member states. The average American blog or news site isn't nearly large enough for any government instance to start a lawsuit.

You can also ask yourself: so what if they fine my company a €10.000. They're not going to send a team of special forces over the Atlantic or through Russia just to extract the cash from you. You only need to pay the fine if your company ever needs to do business in the EU. If your company structure makes your personally liable, this also impacts your future holiday destination decisions, but you can live perfectly fine without seeing the Eiffel tower.

A lot of very similar laws are also being passed in California right now, which will probably be a lot more dangerous than any GDPR restriction, but if you follow the GDPR you're pretty much set to protect yourself from Californian lawsuits as well.

Most of the GDPR is just "don't be a dick with people's data". If the fear of not meeting requirements stops the free-for-all data exchange market, then I'm perfectly fine with that.

I don't think I would ever write code where a file argument to a parse-file would be null, even if that is possible.

A null instead of a file could occur if there is some API to open a file which returns null. That should be throwing something instead of returning a value that might not be handled.

If I did have some object which either holds an open file or else a nil to indicate there is no open file right now, I would carefully guard that this nil does not escape; i.e. that it's never passed into any functions that cannot work without a file, such as parse-file. All methods of that object which deal with that file have to have conditionals for the situations when it's missing.

Once parse-file has received nil instead of a file, it's game over. It might as well not even bother checking. The only reason to check for a nil in parse-file is if we can provide a better diagnostic for the situation compared to letting a lower level file I/O routine produce the error.

Checking for null at higher levels is a bad habit from C. In C, lower level API's and library functions often don't check for null pointers: they just dereference them or crash. A C version of parse_file has to check for a null stream, because getc(stream) will crash miserably.

This is how any social justice thing is generally prefaced.

Along with prefacing everything in terms like harm, lives, etc. so that any objection is already couched in "oh so you're against harm/lives/whatever."

Where are you getting that women getting raped or abused is unique to only the porn industry? Is there any hard data, or is this just some bs that people assume happens in porn.
The GDPR applies to anyone anywhere processing personal information (such as IP addresses) of people inside the EU (both EU and non-EU residents).

That doesn't mean that you're necessarily at risk of any lawsuits or effective action, but what you're stating is wrong. Physical presence has nothing to do with it.

Amazon removed my feedback on selling opened video card boxes and replacing the cards with a different models (sourced by Amazon, not a 3rd party). This prompted me to start providing feedback on sites that Amazon does not control. Not as many people will see it, but Amazon can't censor it.
>This is a consumer problem - "you get what you pay for."

It's pretty clearly not the case here. I've paid full price for what I thought were legit items on Amazon and received fakes.

That's the whole point, the whole "free market" thing only works if the consumer has access to all the relevant info about the product they're buying. On Amazon more and more there's a distortion between what the consumer thinks they're buying and when they actually receive.

>What Amazon shouldn't do is have it both ways, either they're an Ebay-esque digital flea market where everything is buyer-beware, or they're a retailer who is responsible for the garbage on their shelves.

I completely agree with you here and I hope that it'll bite them in the ass in the long run. I'm definitely a lot more cautious of the stuff I buy on Amazon now that I was 10 years ago.
> and there seems nothing we can do about it.

The complexity's moving into the hardware, so I wouldn't assume the kernel'd be having to handle this sort of thing in 50 yrs.
flashback to installing xcode circa ios 13

I had to install an old xcode version, grab a folder, install new xcode, and paste the folder in

took a few tries to understand this, so it's a day + 20GB of downloads later before I had a working build

this was caused by a weird race condition between ios + swift versions and is probably not typical, but my takeaway was that having users who must use your stuff sorely tempts companies to ship crappy software
I mean the latter. Yes, exactly.
This thread continues to ravel!
Yes, I don't understand this weird movement where businesses are expected to go against the government.

You disagree with your own government that's perfectly fine, and for the record I agree with you on the issues themselves, but if you want embargoes against Iran to be lifted or for the NSA to stop hoarding Americans' data you have to do the boring work of convincing the people to vote for people who share those ideas.

Real change will not come from corporations, it simply cannot because their mission if profitability, they support movements if there is no financial risk to do so.

Ars is still generally good and I think they write mostly informed pieces that you don't see elsewhere every few months there is something just truly terrible/inane on there. They're also reposting Wired articles which are often not the best.

This stands out as the single worst thing I've ever seen on their site: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/11/this-is-why-ill-...

Summary: Author whines about customer support experiences and makes an ass of themselves, then realizes that all their griping wasn't even necessary because if they had performed some basic troubleshooting they would have realized the problem was elsewhere all along.

As for Pornhubs viewership, I don't think it will go down much. I imagine a large part of their audience just goes to the site and clicks on what looks good to them, maybe filtering by category or searching, but still, they see what's there and they click.

Also in a roundabout way, since now everything on the site is either from their parent company, a partner company, or someone in their model program they are in control of all revenue and are more probably more likely to see people pay for content from their model program members, which they get a cut of.

Citation needed. The fees are significantly lower than the brokerage (custody fees go down with larger amounts), which has been the bread & butter that's funded the development of all their other operations. Custody fees are probably not insignificant in absolute terms, but I'm highly doubtful they're greater than brokerage fees.

Microsoft has now categorically denied it.
