Not to defend Apple specifically - but do you really think it's just Apple?

Maximising downward pressure on wages - as an economist might label this - is the natural, predictable, desired outcome of globalisation.
You have to be pretty blatant and intentional to disable encryption, if you just coast through then FileVault will be enabled, at least as I understand.

Another perspective is it's great Apple doesn't force encryption 100% of the time. There are situations where you wouldn't want it -- very niche ones, granted, but I think the choice is a good thing.
>> Ghosting people is bad form, too.

So why is it wrong for recruiters to do something that's bad form, but not for someone else to do something that's bad form?
No, it wouldn't. Nothing but a miraculous fabricator that can power and fabricate itself would obliterate the need for infrastructure.

Let's just take one example; VR. For VR, you need VR googles. These need to be produced somewhere, in an industrial mass production because otherwise these VR googles would be prohibitive expensive. That means industrial scale energy production and industrial scale energy transportation and industrial scale energy storage. This industrial scale industry needs to be repaired and upgraded, probably by people. These people need housing, food, education, ... Now take a guess on what you need to provide each and every one of these? Yeah, right; infrastructure.

It's a rat's tail. You cannot get a way from infrastructure if you want any kind of technological civilization.

So when she used words as you advised, you immediately destroyed her strat because she used them in a way different than what you had in mind. :-)
I agree, with the caveat that it's worthwhile checking.

My brand new, personal laptop has FileVault enabled, but my work laptop does not. The article title is a bit misleading regardless since it's enabled by default. Should read "Encryption is trivially bypassed if you disable FileVault"... which seems pretty obvious to most people.
I'm wanting to work on this.

Think build multiple companies for services people already use/need competitors to existing products but they're owned by the community. People still pay for the service, but they earn shares for their loyalty to a product and get dividends from those shares.

Marriage of socialism and capitalism essentially. Marketplaces still exist, but union/co-ops thrive and make businesses more about building products/tools people want not for profit motives as much as to make society better / stronger as a whole.

If everyone could afford 4 year colleges and science degrees and didn't grow up in poverty how much faster could we as a society get to the stars? Fix global warming? Instead millions are lying in bed, covers over their head, depressed that next week they will be homeless or worse.

If the didn't have to worry about money, they could do something productive, drop the depression or work on fixing that, and live happier more fulfilling lives.

As a freelancer, I bounce back and forth in this situation. Doing good, to depression/sour grapes when clients are sparce.

So, part of my wanting to do this is self-serving essentially fix this for myself as well as others.

We could buy up hospitals, medical companies, etc... takeover 80% of the medical industry. Start our own medicare 4 all (who are in our union: workers, consumers/loyalists, adopted (need our help, but can't afford to consume)). We could lower costs, offer hospital boards like 300k salaries take it or leave it, and offer doctors/nurses the position instead. We could do single-payer negotiations with drug companies, etc...

If anyone wants to work w/ me on this... email me: patrickwcurl - gmail Trying to put a team together. Co-op style.

Charitable indeed. Friar Occham awaits you in the parlour to delight you with a most fascinating piece of cutlery....

On the one hand, a legislative body so recklessly plunged the nation into chaos through its own incompetence that the parliament changed hands thrice, each assembling with a new headmaster more incompetent than the last. That it, in its eminence and wise foresight, divined it prudent to carefully and diligently craft both in word and in meaning a strong and thorough treatise that on its face may seem silly yet upon only the most assiduous review is the machination of a truly divine primium mobile into which this nation will resume its normal course...

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but there's plenty of evidence that they depend on these consumers, and they are certainly aware of them because alcohol companies have been known to engage in marketing activities. This is a broad overview:

As you say, it is completely predictable that beverage companies would adapt to a Pareto-like distribution of consumption. However, unlike for things like books or outdoor equipment, adapting to a Pareto distribution here means that a company is intentionally profiting from addiction. This is an absolutely huge negative externality in terms of the social , health, and economic harm that alcohol addiction causes.
I'm pretty sure the onigiri/jelly donut thing only happened because 4Kids didn't think American children would know what onigiri was - they were infamous for their terrible localization.

If it were in the US you'd certainly see it in the news.

In China and other places just getting close to a factory can at times be difficult and crappy working conditions are sadly just assumed to be a fact :(

Trump's criticism of China I don't think intersects anywhere close to caring about the treatment of Chinese citizens... or anyone really.

Just a random anecdote, I'm American and work in the US. Trump personally approved the acquisition of a company I worked for and appeared with the CEO and talked about how all the great jobs that would come of it ... before the acquisition was official they laid most everyone off.
I would argue that in most games, the violence is not the goal, just the mechanics. You're either competing with other players, trying to fulfill a quest, surviving the zombie apocalypse, etc. Very few games are really "murder simulators" and when they do come along, even if they are meant to be satirical or something, they are usually controversial.

The crazy thing to me is Apple's defense that they have instructed their suppliers not to hire any Uighurs from Xinjiang, i.e. openly engaging in ethnic discrimination of job candidates.

I guess they looked at the cost of improving the working conditions in their factories and decided that it was cheaper to simply not use any workers whose fate people might care about. I'm sure the government was happy to assist them in procuring some Han Chinese workers instead...

Why is pooh—poohing the premise of an article without offering anything other than cynicism in vogue on HN these days?

The post makes pretty clear what “the problem with this is”: among other things, most notably Apple has co-opted the use of Boolean flags that previously gave an indication of whether FileVault was enabled or not to instead reflect hardware encryption status which is not the same thing at all.

Which the post explains. At length.
- Don't use social media apps or non-essential apps in general. They usually track you much more thoroughly than any website.

- Use a privacy-friendly browser without an agenda, e.g. Firefox or Brave.

- Use trustworthy extensions to block as many trackers as possible. uBlock origin and Privacy Badger for example. Beware of extensions with commercial entities behind them, like Ghostery or Web of Trust, they actually also collect your data in various ways.
So why not Signal? Telegram? Slack? Discord if thats your thing. Or even Email?

I mean we do have plenty of choice, many actually caring about security and their users.
> Marge is still a stay-at-home parent, taking point on raising Bart, Lisa, and Maggie and maintaining the family’s suburban home. But their life no longer resembles reality for many American middle-class families.

I believe it's because those shows are still made for the same people, those who were kids in the early 90's. So show makers don't adapt them to the modern world, they let their viewers enjoy snapshots of their past, it's an anchor in their modern world.

For context: When I was a kid, I lived in a western european country where the Simpsons were clearly a kid /teen thing.
There's been a lot of products that try, including MS's current "Power Apps" and "Power Automate" utilities. But the problem is that lots of intricate business rules need to be understood and maintained longer term. RAD has had a problem with long-term maintainability of business rules. Instead, I'd like to see a focus on a stateful GUI markup standard so that it's easier to do regular code-based CRUD apps without dealing with screwy web (un) standards, such as bloated JavaScript libraries and CSS wankiness. The UI is a bottleneck to CRUD dev productivity.

The third paragraph kind of contradicts the second one one. I mean why don’t they pretend to be businessmen, politicians or investment bankers then?
I think the difference between acceptance of violent and sexual depictions in media is based on how likely it is to affect people's lives. Almost nobody has a natural tendency to act on violent thoughts, so playing a violent video game is unlikely to cause issues in real life. Most people will have sexual encounters at some point in their life though, so getting an unrealistic expectation of them can cause serious issues in the person's life. For example, women who think men should always cater to their demands because that's what's shown in movies, or men who think that women want to be treated the way they are in porn.

I'm sure they would, but a business is not going to willing shrink its market unless is forced to.

Inflation. The average wage is also a little over twice what it was in the mid-90s.

I get what you’re saying, and your friend is likely very trustworthy. But the fact still remains that the previous planes that crashed were flown by pilots too, and people trusted them with their lives.

I won’t trust this plane for a while, especially given the behavior i’ve seen from Boeing.
Lots of talk about desensitization. Personally I can't watch any gruesome "beheading" videos or anything of that nature, and to the best of my knowledge it would sicken most others as well so I'm not sure the idea holds water.

I think cartoon violence desensitizes you to cartoon violence, and real violence desensitizes you to real violence.

"Though the SSD in computers that have the Apple T2 Security Chip is encrypted, you should turn on FileVault so that your Mac requires a password to decrypt your data."

Edit: I do agree with the article's criticism of using a boolean to represent encryption status, but I don't agree with the dire sounding tone. Since you aren't entering a password, you should be aware that the key is hanging around in plaintext somewhere.

I’ll second this. I lived in the US in a rural area for a while. The standard of living there was pretty simpsons-esque despite most of the area being only high school educated. When I moved to an urban center a few years later that is when I saw a lot more people in this authors demographic, struggling to make ends meet. People in the rural areas were fairly aware of the urban, but the reverse was not true at all, people in very urban areas assumed their experience was universal.

Do a tech/ social media fast...it sounds like you would benefit from being more imaginative,as there are already a dearth of applications out there to aid creativity (or, even to fool people into thinking they are creative, i.e. GarageBand loops, etc).

From the basic 'notes' app included in all phones for creative writing, to the camera for photography, to FL studio app for music.

Not only for you, but for myself and many other people who like to 'make stuff', a good tech/ social media detox to spark some imagination is the only thing I think will truly get you being creative (myself included). The paradox of choice out there, coupled with instant gratification is a productivity/ creativity killer...get that imagination firing again!

I've been a volunteer manga translator in the past, (also started getting paid for it after a while when our manga translation group started getting funded) and a large part of it is using google translate or translation tools to help out with definitions or look for inspiration in translating the words in the manga so this could likely help out in that regard by saving the need of tools like google translate
ETH302 was not operated by a US airline. There's a reason why I'll blindly get on a US major and make more checks and be more choosey about boarding airliners operated by countries with far looser training standards.

Even prior to 2013, you could be an SIC ("first officer") for a US operator with just 250 hour minimums required then by the ATP certificate. Colgan Air 3407 ended that.
I like to grow herbs from the ridiculously priced ones they sell at the grocery store. Put a sprig or two in a jar of water for a few weeks or whenever roots begin to sprout, then transplant them to a pot. I'm no green thumb but I've found this is pretty easy to do. Many of them grow well outdoors too.
Please stop. Having underlying health conditions that make you less likely to survive COVID-19 does not mean that you were not killed by COVID-19.

Multinational factories are owned by multinationals. Yes, some factories are owned by Chinese firms, but even that's misleading. Alot of the "Chinese" firms have Hong Kong owners, who usually operates more ethically, and hates China, than "CCP state" firms that engages in modern day slavery.

<i> Nobody seems to know what the solution is, other than moving away from the places where the worst inequality is right now.</i>

Taxes! Tax financial gains better and more consistently, tax income more progressively, eliminate tax loopholes, and structure taxation in a way that encourages corporations to raise pay for employees instead of paying out huge dividends etc. to investors.

Productivity has outpaced income year after year since the 1970s. That difference is going to the people who already have wealth.

Zoning! Ignore the hue and cry of existing property owners who don't want their property values to fall and rezone to encourage new housing development in desirable areas.

When I was growing up in the late 80s thru 90s, my family was an early "casualty" of this economic trend. The housing / rental market in Massachusetts was already too expensive and layoffs too rampant for a blue collar family to survive. We had to move across the country.

I remember even as a kid being confused about the Simpsons. It didn't look like my family's situation. It didn't even look like the life of any of the people I knew. They/we lived in houses without switchplates over the outlets. Houses they rent but didn't own, or rent-to-own houses with gotchas in the fine print they didn't understand.

The Simpsons also never went hungry. They had family meals. At my friends' houses we ate microwave potatoes with soda. My family went hungry 3 days at the end of each month.

Except...not. HTTP is also cleartext, but it is usually tunelled through TLS. The entire stack matters, not that this one part is insecure when considered in isolation.
We've been taking open source for granted for the past decade. As open source has proven difficult to monetize, we may be seeing a return to proprietary closed source software.

Whether this is a good or a bad thing depends on how it plays out. If software like Flow conforms to standards and offers a better experience, battery life, privacy, etc then it might work out well. An open infrastructure with a marketplace to pay for desired features will benefit us all.

The bad scenario is that the web continues to fracture into proprietary components. While a web not dominated by Chrome seems almost unimaginable today, it wasn't that long ago that sites that only worked in Internet Explorer were commonplace. If Flow actually becomes the dominant web browser and Flow-only websites ever become the norm, we'll all be worse off for it. That really is a far off scenario, so for now, having Flow as an extra player on the web is probably a good thing.
Speaking from personal experience, it is necessary to update these references, because people implementing them have no choice but to follow the letter of the law. I have worked on govt projects where we had to downgrade to an insecure cipher suite to comply with outdated regulations.

Putting on my govt contractor hat, there may be a business opportunity here to set up VMs running Win95/Netscape Communicator for use by all the civil servants looking to comply with the law. Could charge a pretty penny too - it’ll all get budgeted as “Brexit compliance” costs.

I actually wanted to start a social network / organizing app. Around this. People essentially 'volunteer' to move where we need them to. But they actually would move for a few years. Maybe even stay there, permanently. As long as they live there, they can vote there.

Emphasis at first would be red states close to turning blue, or with large electoral college votes. Then maybe states needed for local change, could ask people to move to 'support' the changes needed. Like legalizing cannabis in Utah (we'd need a lot more blue for that to ever happen even via ballot initiative, it's a miracle we got medicinal).

Unlike the NoSql movement, it embraces SQL and many RDBMS conventions to reduce the learning curve. It only removes or changes RDBMS features that get in the way of dynamism, but keeps the baby in the bathwater. And it allows incremental tightening of constraints/types to go from prototype to production. I'd love such a tool for prototyping.
