Having lived in the US this reasoning makes absolutely no sense. It's not like every store charges MSRP or that stores don't have sales. Every store pretty much has its own pricing and they have no problem showing this specific store's pricing without the added tax. It would be ridiculously simple to show that specific price with taxes added.
As if that sounds any better in English. It's probably better just to ignore us English speakers anyway. Anyway, apparently Oberfucking and Unterfucking still exist?
Broadly speaking, the wasm stuff is only there as a method of getting the browser to execute shellcode, its a pretty standard lump of code for turning a memory bug into code execution in v8. What this shellcode does is open calculator when the browser's sandbox is disabled (`--no-sandbox`). In general in v8 exploitation, once you've reached a point where you can read and write arbitrary memory, you find that v8 will only create either RW or RX pages for you when the JIT compilation happens. WASM is a neat little trick for getting a handle to a RWX page.

At first glance to me, the core bug is actually in abusing an array enough to get an unsigned int into a function that expects them all to be signed, causing an off-by-one error and leveraging that into a memory leak (to get the pointer to a FixedArray for floats and a pointer to a FixedArray of objects) and then replacing one with another to create a type confusion and read/write arbitrary memory through that. r4j will probably correct me on the subtlety here though!

Source: extremely similar to HackTheBox RopeTwo, which I spent more time than I am prepared to admit solving.

Disclaimer: am noob at v8 exploitation, but have done enough of it to know some of the tricks.

See also, an article that helped me previously, much of the code is similar (eg: the WASM stuff, the addrof() and fakeobj() methods): https://faraz.faith/2019-12-13-starctf-oob-v8-indepth/
In the US, it is exactly the same. There are absolutely zero dark patterns on housing leases, it is highly controlled.

I am not sure if apartment lease is a good example.

Since a lot of people will read this page, but won't follow the link, I'm posting RMS' quote from your link:

> Many years ago I posted that I could not see anything wrong about sex between an adult and a child, if the child accepted it.

> Through personal conversations in recent years, I've learned to understand how sex with a child can harm per psychologically. This changed my mind about the matter: I think adults should not do that. I am grateful for the conversations that enabled me to understand why.

I think this quote demonstrates pretty well what kind of person RMS is. He's somewhere on the spectrum (aren't we all), and entirely human. He's grappling with his own beliefs, entertaining possibilities, and actively working to change his beliefs to be a better person.

I think so much of the current outrage is really about our society in general, and we're in desperate need of scapegoats because we can't actually target society at large, we can only "target" individuals.

That said, I'm just gonna leave this here: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/1656/1656-h/1656-h.htm
Maybe I should have expanded upon it. When I went to visit SF with a startup, I naturally thought one of my dozen cousins in the area would know someone who did something with one of the many startups in the world's startup capital. They don't just not work in startups, they seem to not have any connections to it. Granted, I didn't do a thorough survey, but if they knew someone in a prominent firm I think they'd have told me.

Which is kinda surprising, but I guess for all the noise they make it's still a pretty small network.
> A bulk of countries, including where I live, are completely dependant on importing food.

Which countries are those? Because I'm pretty sure that no developed country is dependent on importing food to meet the basic caloric needs of its population.

Also, a fair amount of food gets fed to animals, which are incredibly inefficient at turning grain calories into meat calories.
Nonsense, that's just standard diplomacy - no reason to purposefully insult an ally.
I'm very unclear on what general priciple you think RMS is violating with the Minsky comments. Is it that you should never defend someone accused of Bad Thing if you are a public figure ij channels that may be related to your work?

I'm not sure it's really "guilty until proven innocent." Having had money held up myself by anti laundering it's more the bank writes to you saying we can't process this until you provide some evidence as to its source. And they're not really that interested as to the source - they just want an appropriate bit of paper in their file so they can say they met regulations.
Isn't there a single language, where "states" (as in US) or "face" (as in Facebook) is an offending word?

Of course all of that is true but it's irrelevant because you have to take a systemic view when talking about economics. The fact is that capitalism and entrepreneurship, while not fair in the cosmic sense you present it, is the best system we have for creating wealth for both the poor and the rich.

Nowhere in that citation is there concrete support for your claim that these words led to the video being taken down.

That would de facto exclude a lot of people with a tight budget.

I've heard this a lot, but is it true? I know some flats are empty because they're between tenants or being renovated, but how many are actually empty for years at a time? The idea that not earning any rental now (and paying tax on the place) in the hope that you'll bump up prices years down the line seems risky to me.
Until you realize that in some counties “blue” is a euphemism for “gay” and you’re right back where you started.

> It hasn't changed much, like the article says, and that's fine.

I think that is the problem. On the outside it has not changed much and thereby loosing traction and customers.

They have added things but apart from pipelines quite a few years ago nothing revolutionary has been added.

The only thing I can think of is that they made it harder to use when they changed the pricing for their free tier to be per user and not per app.
I think that's the typical outcome in the end. I've never actually heard of anyone being charged the full amount (not that I would have any way of knowing though). Also sometimes local law will place an upper limit on the size of the fee.

Several of my past leases specified that if broken I would be responsible for monthly rent on a prorated basis until a new tenant moved in.
UK food production minus exports is 55% of the food consumed in the UK. [1]

It seems this is aimed at young people learning how to program. My main problem with using Javascript as the first programming language to learn is the asynchronous callback paradigm, I believe it's too complicated a concept to teach in the very beginning (and you can't get around that with Javascript).

When I evaluated different languages / environments to start teaching programming to my daughters I decided not to use Javascript because of that, chose Python instead (and now I'm also considering making games with Roblox, which is based on Lua. The dev environment is quite complex but with supervision Lua is a nice & simple programming language)

This is also pretty common, at least in Germany. If you don't cancel a contract within a certain period, it auto renews.

It's not that terrible, but it certainly is something immigrants like me don't expect. Now I assume it's the case.

Like it or not, ideally, there ought to be a slight bias in favor of the status quo in terms of revolutionary knowledge claims. That friction counteracts the unknown, unexamined, potential deficiencies of the new theory. Furthermore, a "put-up or shut up" standard is also appropriate.

There are much, much better reasons to be skeptical and critical of authorities and institutions. I feel connecting his theory to this general attitude serves to marginally discredit the latter in net. Which is why a group like Vice would pounce on a story like this.
This has been happening forever. I have always gotten out of it by contacting customer support and begging for them to waive it. My wife accidentally signed up a while ago (not knowing it was a lock in year contract, she just needed it for a month). Half hour back and forth with customer support was enough to get it waived. I would say that "it's just part of the contract" but their mobile apps and lack of clear wording is predatory.
I'm very surprised that Vice magazine which I would consider part of the alt-right dark web posted this article whining about Mr. Weinstein and Mr. Rogan. Aren't they all on the same team? I'm not worried. I think once Mr. Rogan has had a chance to fully digest the recently released paper, he will work with the editors of Vice magazine to provide the world's physics community with a compelling critique of these new ideas.
No need to be so literal. "I'm sure" is just a way of saying "I strongly suspect" in this context. Nobody would take that as a statement of fact.

(and "nobody" is intended to mean "few" in this context. Language is a funny thing, eh?)
My friends have called me the "mommy skier" for years, long before I had my baby, because I ski so very carefully within my limits and rarely fall.

Since my husband doesn't ski, I end up skiing by myself most of the time and stay on or near the piste, and sometimes take the train to the mountains for a weekend alone - unlikely for the near future now that I've got a kid. It's pretty much impossible to be alone at a ski area in Bavaria or Austria, so I have always felt pretty safe (though concerned about being hit by another skier).

This article has changed my mind about that a bit - I now see the danger in a fall that isn't bad enough to keep me from getting back up, but does "ring my bell". Imagine had Hatcher (the son) gotten to his car and driven like that, or had the dangerous secondary head injury or just gone on using a smartphone or reading instead of resting those two weeks because no one was watching him closely enough to worry about him.
Grey still sounds a bit too dangerous. Might be taken for an age thing. I'd go with A and B. X and Y might allude to sex.
You could pay consumer tax not by the place you live in but by the place where business is located. Any additional taxes could be added by independent institution. Something like customs, just on local scale.

This is an interesting move - because it seems exceedingly unlikely that they'll be able to extract the same margin out of automative customers that they get with data centre chips. Which means that management in Intel is starting to think about pursuing new markets despite sacrificing gross margin - bad move financially short term for them, but could be very promising long term.

> Wealth, or net worth, is the difference between the value of assets owned by households and the value of the liabilities (or debt) held by the household. Assets include items such as the value of an owned home, value of a business, accounts in financial institutions, stocks and bonds, 401(k) and thrift accounts, individual retirement accounts and Keogh accounts, rental properties, motor vehicles and other personal property. Liabilities include home mortgages, credit card debt, student loans, vehicle loans and business debt.

One of the big problems you tend to run in with these kind of things are visa regulations; turns out that getting a work visa for a lot of these countries can actually be harder than getting one for a Western country. Especially if you're "just a guy" rather than a big company (i.e. me) it's pretty hard.

I live in Indonesia on the "series of tourist visas" work-around. Getting a work visa is hard because I don't have an Indonesian employer to sponsor me or the money to start a proper entrepreneur visa. There are probably some work-around available by having an Indonesian found the company and "employ" me, but it's all very iffy and quickly becomes complex. When I looked at options a few years ago something similar applied to most countries.

It's their country and they can do what they want, but it seems to me that it's kind of a missed opportunity.
The issue is that it's not clear to consumers that the contract has a cancellation fee. See this screenshot, which alludes to a cancellation fee but doesn't explicitly say how large it is until you click into the fine print: https://i.imgur.com/5xTA7eC.png

Maybe businesses are savvy enough to read the fine print, but I think many normal consumers don't understand that there is a fee to cancel, given that it is not prominently shown. You can't just bury meaningful parts of a contract into terms and conditions.
If they going from one spot, maybe zapping them with laser one by one until they are all dead.

Money-laundering can be significantly reduced if every bank had to:

1. show the "contra" bank account details for every transfer in and out of an account (to show who oaid or who received the funds)

2. provide bank statements in a (standardised) machine readable format

3. provide the statements within a week of request.

Such bank statements would make following the trail a lot easier.

None of the enormous, listed, multi-national banks where I live can do all three. Most can barely do 3.

They are so bad, we have had to conclude that money-laundering is actually a tacit service they offer.

I'm not an american apologist by any means, and it is a dark pattern, but it is very clear at point of payment what you're paying, and what period it's for. The drop-down unexpanded clearly says "Annual Plan, paid monthly".

Yes it's a bait and switch, and adobe deserve to be called out on the bait and switch but thats not what this thread is about, it's about someone signing up to (clear at time of purchase) annual billing and wanting to cancel early.

Sure. A quick Google search yielded the articles below. I don't have authoritative papers to reference, so you'll have to do your own digging too. But it also makes sense when you are aware of the realities of being in poverty. You also left out what I put in parentheses. Mental abuse is abuse and many children are subject to it. I explicitly called it out because I personally feel that people underestimate the damage it does primarily because it's something that is just completely alien to many people and cannot be related to. I also think people do not tend to realize what mental abuse is and in how many ways it can take shape.

Also, not to make excuses but I think in the mental abuse case people don't always know they are doing it. They do what their parents did or learned from those around them who also didn't know what they were doing.
We burn cinnamon roots (is that what they are called?) in small bowls to avoid this problem during summer. Might be worth giving a shot.

I wish I had such tools when I was growing up building games! I had to battle ncurses, Allegro, OpenGL, and many more lower-level tech just to get some basic I/O. I'm not too sad about it because it paved the way to my stronger understanding of computer technologies, but at the same time it took me way longer to build playable games.

I think this is a step before making Minecraft mods or Roblox games, but definitely a welcome one for the coming generation of creative kids.

Or a minimum head-up time for cancellations that's not bound to some full year cycle. There are many established ways of adding friction to cancellations that wouldn't cause any outrage at all.

But if those ways weren't good enough for Adobe and they wanted to have it both ways, advertise "cancel any time" and but still have "(you can do that, but then you have to pay in advance for the remainder of the year to do so)" or something like that in the fine print then they deserve all the hatred. And maybe even lawsuits for deliberately misleading labeling, but they probably have a legal team tweaking that communication in each jurisdiction to the exact shade of dark grey containing enough white for discouraging lawsuits.

And I suspect that the pattern/scheme doesn't pay for itself at all, that it's just the unfortunate outcome of a bad compromise between one group in the company advocating for honest monthly and another group advocating for honest annual.

I really don't think it is just that. It is not just Minsky/Epstein scandal, those are just something people who disliked how much more low key much less impactful "uncomfortable" behaviors were enabled.

And it has zero to do with open source to wining over FSF. Like, nothing at all, popular organization survive sex-abuse scandals just fine. Partly it is business friendliness, yes. But also, personally I remember finding culture around FSF off-putting years ago, for reasons that have nothing to do with Minsky/Epstein kind of issues.

I found that off-putting because of hollier then tho, we are geniuses everyone else is looser and if you don't agree with us is bad programmer attitudes. And the massive thread wars over everything that kind of pretend to be rational, but are actually massively emotional.
