Can't rule out this hypothesis that hiding information might be driving sales more than it would save expenditures, e.g. fear stimulating compulsive buying.
So if you lose your phone, you lose all your data? (asking in a genuine manner)
I think it's silly for you to put those words into my mouth.

First of all, Stadia streams from Edge nodes - it's not about living next to data centers. I'm just giving another data point. There are numerous places for latency to be introduced in game streaming: encoding, decoding, local network, WAN, etc. An extra 15 seconds on your ping is a HUGE deal for playability in game streaming. 20 ms might be an awesome ping for CS:GO, but for something like Stadia you're going to feel that negatively.
It sounds to me like they think it's a terrible language for the users because they never put the normal engineering rigor that they would normally for a full new language. It grew 'organically' to it's own (and it's users') detriment.
Not unique to FB, these days it seems every news site has (at least) a nag popup if a ad blocker is detected, with many having a hard block on content.
Agreed, but the issue here seems to be a legal one.

There is very little IP protection for software in general.

If the app conforms to the rules, Apple may not be able to determine that it’s a violation of any rule.

Then what?
They didn't agreed per-se, it was just a default and Apple should be shamed for this.
We are starting to see the limits these apps have, they are just not cut out to be considered a professional broker.

It's funny they worry so much about (short-term) liquidity, while their long-term brand & trust & customer base erodes irrecoverably by the minute.
There's a guy who made a script that downvotes any comment that starts with "I mean" or ends with "so..." I wonder if he's worked something up like this.

I feel bad for the employees. I always feel bad for the employees (as their equity is always most at risk compared to others on the cap table, from all forms of devaluation or inability to obtain liquidity). But their lottery ticket is no different then folks jumping into a meme stock except they got sold on the idea they had to work for theirs.

But the founders of Robinhood who built the Zynga of the capital markets? Not much empathy for them.
That last bullet point is key, Ford wants to advertise to you and likely sell your attention to others. Trade in alerts? Oh joy.

In other words, they are jealous of OnStar and the only question remains is, how much will Ford charge for other than the most basic of services by incorporating Android into their cars.

Do not assume what they are adding is free of a monthly charge
Thankfully they couldn't; OpenJDK is released under the GPL. Copyleft works, people!
But solar panels you can slap on a building roof or make into covered parking will always be cheaper than form factor panels installed in the roof of a vehicle. Other than super specific fringe use cases, there is just no reason to justify installing these expensive specialty panels in cars instead of installing them at homes/workplaces/retail centers and just charging EVs at those locations.

There is also the cost savings in scaling. The cost for a solar system comes down even more when a business can install a whole row of solar panel covered parking, either offer EV charging as a perk or charge for charging, and use the rest of the electricity to power normal electric operations. For the driver, buying the electricity as needed from home or work panels would always be cheaper per total watt usage than buying in-car roof panels, since again, the specialty nature of them means they will always be more expensive and less efficient than their stationary mounted counterparts. You can never scale up car roof solar because you can never install move than one car roof’s worth at a time. You also can’t ignore the inverter power loss that is much worse at the lower power a car roof system would have.

Then of course you have the downsides of long term sun damage to your vehicle to get that minimal charge, instead of protected under a solar panel covered parking or in a garage with solar mounted on top. You have the higher rate of damage by being installed on a moving vehicle instead of a stationary object on a building or parking structure roof. You have the lower rate of return, since panels are rated for 20-25 plus years and most vehicles don’t stay on the road that long. You have the downside of sub optimal charging angle and all the time the vehicle spends in a parking garage during the day, as opposed to a stationary panel that is pointed at the sun 365 days a year. At the end of the day, it will always be cheaper and more efficient to have stationary solar panels.

Given that most people charge their EVs overnight/during work anyway, car roof panels would only really provide value during “road trip” situations, where you are driving close to or beyond at full charge per day. Since you are only getting at best 10-15 additional miles over an entire day in the sun (and more realistically less than 10), it would do very little to reduce range anxiety. And that is not even calculating how much the additional weight of the panels would reduce range.

It sounds good on paper but it is highly unlikely to translate to a real world benefit.
Usually Apple hates when App developers make any user prompts that points out changes Apple has made.

I wonder if Apple will pull the Facebook app in response.

I like Android, but I really don't think it belongs as an integral part of a car. I also don't like cars having connectivity with other devices or the network, but that's another tangent.

I like older car control panels - knobs, switches, buttons. You can feel what you're doing so you're not looking at a screen instead of the road. That's not to say I don't like technology in cars. Voice commands for playing songs and a HUD for critical data (speed, RPM, tires, warnings, etc) are awesome.
Ok, I understand where you're coming from now.

The person who's most affected by naked shorting is the unsuspecting person who buys the borrowed share from the shorter because nobody actually has that share yet.

From the buyers perspective I can understand the importance of this, I just didn't see how the distinction made a difference to the short interest.
On the other hand, though, they might have far more users than they ever anticipated if some of the new retail investors stick around. If their brand doesn't end up completely dead and buried, at least.
There is "market value" of IP in the sense that there are prices consumers are supposed to pay for it. The price of a movie ticket, the price of a music album, the price of a video game. The tax can be calculated based on that and the popularity of the creative work in question.
Does a free ticket to the exclusive event count as payment? You know like an apple event where new products are presented and then published in every paper around the world.
This is said so often it's become a platitude, but: Your free labor of creating and curating things people want to look at is the product. It's the companies bidding on access to content you're willing to look at, in hopes of changing your behaviour, that are the consumers.
How would governments finance this? Developing these offerings with the quality of service of the GAFAM (which users take now for granted) costs a fortune (financed by advertising in practice as of today).
I thought the more appropriate one is https://www.theonion.com/entire-facebook-staff-laughs-as-man...
Is it mandatory? If you assume a staff member has x hours available each week for work, is this coming out of x (at the expense of company business) or is it coming out of 168-x (and thus reducing the staff member's time for sleep, shower, cooking, family, et c)?
The real trick is balancing the two.

Help enough to build that reputation for being a team player. When you can't fully help, don't just say no, give them some starting pointers and offer to review, or assist more if they get stuck, so even then you are still being supportive.

Help people to help themselves. Don't just do something for them, guide them in how to do it themselves so next time they don't even have to disturb you.

Listen out for opportunities to use your skills to help people when they don't even realise they need help. I've lost count of the number off little scripts, tools or reports that I've knocked out in a couple of hours just because someone absent mindly moaned about something they found annoying. These things build your reputation far more than just plain helping, and if you're observant they are often simple and quick to do.

But also, make time to progress your big goals too, which does mean you have to say no sometimes.

Get help in return from those you have helped to move your goals forward faster than you can on your own.
"Ask App Not to Track" just means the app will be denied access to the IDFA (which you can already do by turning on "Limit ad tracking" in settings). It's worded like that because this can't prevent the app from using something else (IP address or device fingerprinting) to track you.
> During the incident, AWS engineers were alerted to our packet drops by their own internal monitoring, and increased our TGW capacity manually. By 10:40am PST that change had rolled out across all Availability Zones and our network returned to normal, as did our error rates and latency.

Sounds like AWS knew how to handle it too.

Given how AWS has responded to past events like this, I'd bet there's an internal post-mortem and they'll add mechanisms to fix this scaling bottleneck for everyone.

Although one thing I'm not clear on is if this was really an AWS issue or if Slack hit one of the documented limits of Transit Gateway (such as bandwidth), after which AWS started dropping packets. If that's the case then I don't see what AWS could have done here, other than perhaps have ways to monitor those limits, if they don't already. The details here are a bit fuzzy in the post.
To be fair, some random persons datapoint wrangling can (and usually does) have large number of eyeballs than a life long trained professional with a PhD. While the data should be public and object to scrutiny (ideally by other experts in scientific community), how much insight would untrained people actually get? Apart from alternative facts and "just a flu". Many popular blog posts and opinions were proven to be flat out wrong.

If we don't trust the people dedicated to handle that kind of situations, who can we trust? I totally agree there has not been enough transparency (what panic would it cause if the scientists say "We don't know at this point. We think X Y Z, it might change completely in a month) about what we know, but I still would rather trust WHO/CDC (who have been proven incorrect multiple times) than some random forum with no credentials.

What politicians do based on these observations is a very different thing.
I would rather get advertisements about tech toys than get advertisements about debeers diamonds.
The DMCA was created to allow websites like Youtube to exist without existential threat from rights holders due to users uploading content that they do not hold the rights to.

Your view is Stallman-esque, but the world is not so clear cut in terms of good/evil. At best, I would say the abuse of the DMCA by large entities is an unintended consequence of the existence of the DMCA, and it could be patched up by lawmakers if there weren't already a remedy for DMCA requests made in bad faith.

The problem is that places like Youtube have implemented policies more strict than the DMCA that do enable big content owners to bypass the DMCA process and remove user content without much recourse.
There are a few factors at play here when it comes to advertising.

1) Digital is taking over all ad-channels

2) Digital ads can be tracked and attributed ways that were never possible with traditional media

3) It turns out most non-targeted ads aren't actually that effective, and aggregate ad spend is falling.

FB ads are effective and high value because of tracking. If tracking goes away, FB ad revenue will fall to that of banner advertising at roughly 1/100th to 1/10000th the price per impression that FB currently receives.

Such a change would effectively force a rethink of the entire consumer technology business, and see FB/GOOG re-structure to some form of subscription revenue or shutdown large feature sets and product offerings which would no longer be tenable.
I keep getting pulled toward the small internet by various forces, but I never seem to find the center of it, the place where the good content starts. I want to find the good phlogs and the secret message boards. I've connected to modern day BBSs and could never get used to the keyboard layout. What am I missing?

If your oldest request was queued 5+ seconds ago in a near-realtime system (such as Slack), CPU usage isn't your biggest problem.

Slack wrote an autoscaling implementation that ignored request queue depth and downsized their cluster based on CPU usage alone, so while they knew how to resolve it, I would not go so far as to say they knew how to prevent it. The mistake of ignoring the maxage of the request queue is perhaps the second most common blind spot in every Ops team I've ever worked with. No insult to my fellow Ops folks, but we've got to stop overlooking this.
Wow, I guess I know which mark of cars to avoid in the future.

I'll likely get downvoted for what amounts to a negative review of a popular Google product but I find that Android is frustrating to use, hangs in the middle of tasks like typing the word "the" and has extremely dark UI patterns, like the word "backup" in one's photos immediately starting a cloud upload of what could be gigabvtes that even a power cycle won't stop. (there's no "stop" nor "x" on this upload either, and one wonders where "backup to SD" card fits into this all...)

Seriously, I can't tell if the ultimate Windows editions since XP were deliberately designed to throw away decades of power-user "ah yes, there's the Start Menu Button" knowledge, and by the same token, I can't tell if Google is merely incompetent or helping sling hardware and dataplans.

The only connection between the infotainment system and your brakes is over the CAN bus, nothing happening on the infotainment should affect braking.
Who knows how aware they were of it, but this didn't happen just this week or just because of a meme. They built the business to operate in a certain way and then let it grow without ensuring they had the capital reserves to sustain those operations.
> So they can’t have a surcharge, but they can just raise everything 10¢/gal then “discount” cash purchases. It’s the same thing, so why is one illegal but not the other?

That was the case prior to 1666f. Now, both "credit surcharges" and "cash discounts" are permitted.

It was just a perspective thing, card brands didn't want to have cards feel "disadvantaged" relative to cash. Instead they had cash "advantaged" related to credit. It was never illegal to do either, this change just rendered terms of service which included them unenforceable.
Thanks: I don't see that in my life so was not aware of it.
If you go read the original Borg paper, it's clear that they're heavily inspired by IBM mainframes. They even call the job description language 'BCL'. I remember thinking at the time "oh, that's cute, they must have had the task 'what changes if you make a single z/OS cluster run on a million cores'"
Do people who use facebook actually care about privacy?

I can't understand why any user would want to be targeted by tailored ads or any ads for that matter? It's psychological warfare with the goal of separating you from your money. Stop spending, you'll realize you don't need all that shit they try to peddle.

I would like to see how this would take place in 2021. We have plenty of readily and provable cases of lying from the government, elected officials, and the police. Something I don't even think they considered based on this article.
I wish we had consent forms like this in regards to medical data.

Everyone has options. I deleted FB years ago. No one actually needs FB.
Yes, but I think it would be a bit naïve to think that Apple is doing so out of the kindness of their hearts.

Apple already has access to all the metrics that Facebook would be interested in. It seems to me like this is a set-up for Apple to force FB to buy the data directly from them.
Getting oil or gas is far from geo-politically ideal, let alone Schröder mixing up politics and business. On the other hand it's okay in comparison to what the US did to obtain and secure oil from the middle-east. That said, I don't think this has anything to do with being respected or liked. Having a good redundant energy supply is a core need, both governments and businesses before that failed to secure it by going for renewables earlier on. At the same time the US has always been respected in the past despite geo-polical acting that was more than questionable. If people have to freeze in the winter because of political fallout, this doesn't have to do much with being likeable.
This is the best comment I've read in weeks!
Really wish Apple would limit unlocks to no more than the App cost in the store. As in, if the developer wants to sell you $39 dollars of features, game play items, or such, after you obtain the app they are limited per year to the cost of the app from the initial purchase off the store.

The number of apps with obscene monthly and yearly charges that snag people is too numerous to count and Apple doesn't even police this aspect
Tracking aside, I prefer not to have "personalized" ads for two reasons. First, they create another bubble based on their perception of me. Second, their personalization is so poor I sometimes wonder how come advertisers believe them.

And this is all assuming you actually want to see ads. I don't. It's only when I need to buy something I enter the buying mode: I disable adblockers and start doing research - this is the only small window when ads are allowed to bother me.

IMHO, privacy is the wrong tack for these arguments. The issue is that Flickr or Google Photos can shut down and/or raise prices while all your data is stuck there.

There are many ways to have relevant ads that don't track you as an individual.

You may find that only 70% of the ads are relevant versus 75%, but you will not find that you've unwittingly given away your personal information for the pleasure of buying something.

I would still defer to something with ECC RAM and ZFS for keeping my data, but I could see myself using something like this for unimportant data and/or serving important data as a read-only mirror. Either way, I love that an RPi system will soon come in a sweet form-factor optimized for NAS use.
