Google did something similar to me and my ads account about a year back. Nothing short of hiring a lawyer seemed a way forward. I would support a class action against Google.
At times I came close :)
Google doesn't literally know how long that page is going to be left open in a tab or window. IIRC they do know when you're back to Google trying the next search result ?
It's being pushed by the corporations are politicians so they don't have to treat the real cause, or give away their own wealth, in order to solve the class problems. It's easier to blame some random redneck with low intellect as the root cause instead of watching into their own wallets.
I have worked on many mobile app development projects, and I am grateful that google and apple try to protect the consumer. App devs are in full control of the stack in the app, and it is very easy to unintentionally (or intentionally) handle your data insecurely. For example, app devs can disable https communication with their own external APIs, secretly transmit your data on their own servers, harvest your data from other apps like contacts, and build on buggy/sketchy/outdated middleware. And, there is typically no visibility for the user. Yes - same is true for desktop apps. I appreciate Apple's recent moves to make this more transparent. More needs to be done. It is much harder (not impossible) to maliciously handle your data in browsers because of standard security features (like the green lock icon when https is enabled) and powerful dev tools to examine network communication and code libraries. After building many apps, I tend to only install apps from companies that have commercial pressure to handle my data properly.
Yeah, I suppose that is what I am arguing. Apple is absolutely an abusive monopoly, but tackling them alone without simultaneously handling Facebook and co would result in a net loss for the average consumer.

They do to a degree but overall composition of the atmosphere has so much oxygen and so little co2 that the dynamics are quite different.

There’s something like 50x as much oxygen in the atmosphere as co2 so a relative change of 1% nominal value will correct itself fifty times faster for oxygen than for co2 between outside and inside (ok a wild simplification, but still)

The result is that without really intense sealing it’s basically impossible to make a difference in indoor oxygen levels whereas with even a cracked window i can maintain co2 levels two to three times outdoor concentrations in my apartment.

Running a co2 fixer with the place shut up would be more like... running the air conditioner full blast with the place shut up. Yes there would be losses but they would be relatively contained.
Sterlingov? Nominative determinism?
Scale brings a lot of efficiencies.

It can be more efficient and less polluting to sail a ship with 1000 tons of tomatoes from Mexico than have a local farm drive a few crates of tomatoes to the local farmer's market in his 1970 Ford pickup.
Not sure I like the idea of food having a version number.

Yes, the clip-on adapter could not power the chip in-circuit. So I use the power from the board. As I said this worked fine on some boards but not others.
Just to contrast this to other parts of the world: in Germany, the land registry is the only authoritative source for ownership information. So the excerpts from the registry about a certain property are always the complete information by definition. The downside of this is that if a clerk makes an erroneous entry, that error then becomes legally binding. While rare, this does unfortunately happen occasionally and can have pretty wild repercussions.
Let's not forget the venerable UMLet (https://www.umlet.com). It's simple, cross platform, and supports a variety of UML diagrams using a text-based syntax.

Don't use Slack, but I have the same experience with Teams for example. Using it is torture on my desktop (i5-8500 - 6 cores and 32 GB ram). There is very noticeable lag when typing, on the order of one second. When moving the mouse around, all the animations are laggy (they take forever to start).

Of course there are what seem to be caching / network-related issues, like switching between conversations always takes forever. But there are also clearly UI issues, like when I try to scroll up in a newly-opened conversation, it scrolls a bit, waits to load, then it sends me all the way back down again before jumping around to some random position. This happens when there are no new messages in the chat and I only try to scroll a little, not go back days.

And the crown, for me: somehow, the number of letters out of order when I type is through the roof in Teams. It happens practically on every message I send, whereas this basically never happens in Telegram (where I send the same kind of short messages) or when I write long-form emails.
Credentialing for software engineers (such as licensing and continuing education for nurses) has its own set of problems, both in terms of gate-keeping but more importantly in the type of work being entirely different.

There’s a spread in performance from the +1σ to the -1σ nurse, but both will be functional in a nursing role, so checking credentials is a mostly sufficient evaluation of occupational ability.

The spread in software ability is so much larger that the -1σ candidates (the least-effective ~15% of people who have ever worked in computer programming jobs) are worth trying to select against in a way the least effective ~15% of nurses probably are not. (I’m not in medicine so I’m not sure; apologies if the same effect is at play there as well.)
I don't see the popu. But I do see an advertisement every 1.5 screens I scroll down. Extremely annoying. Article itself isn't bad though
That's a very recent excuse, but the status quo been that for some time.

I would add that buy your domain separately.

All cloud/hosting providers offer domains sometimes for free. You don't want that.

Because if you get locked out of an account you get locked out of your domain. Sure you can sometimes get at least domain back, but that usually involves layers and can take weeks or months.

If you can (its often not practical, but when it is) hosts your DNS elsewhere as well.

And most importantly, have at least one backup somewhere else (if you host on AWS have backup on something that isn't using AWS as a backend)
Well, proper procedure here would be to flag the post then. Thanks for clarifying on this clickbait.
This is fascinating and we don't really understand it. It seems like it should be simple to comprehend compared to actual disease of the biological sort, yet it's not a solved problem.

I wonder what that suggests about the complexity of actual biological disease.
Try buying 20 lbs of calcium hydroxide, it is sometimes used for soap making iirc, so it should be available on amazon. Bubbling air through a concentrated solution should do something. At least at the CO2 concentrations of exhaled air you get visible amounts of insoluble carbonate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl9A8Iyc_LY
I agree (with your disagreement) ... "3D printed house" is one of those things that come up at dinner tables regularly.

"Hey you are into 3d printing, right? Have you heard about the new technology that allows us to print houses?!?"

Yes I have ... no it won't change the world ... yes this has been done for years now.

What I am more interested in is that robot arm on a truck that "automatically" lays bricks with mortar (substitute) inbetween.
the problem is that mobile phones have become such a necessary tool for day-to-day life that one company cannot control what goes into them and what not. Apple can either allow additional stores (with all the checks and warnings) or that curation should be done by an independent, public and international third-party.

The first option looks far easier.
> I wonder when is something is legally considered rape.

Its kind of weird that this hairsplitting curiosity about consent always comes up exclusively in the context of rape and not other crimes with the same “without consent” rule, like battery (particularly since rape is, ina sense, just battery where the “harmful or offensive touching” element involves specific configurations of genital contact.)

But its actually pretty simple: if the other party didn’t actively intend for the specific interaction to occur, there was no consent. All the other things people ask about (except to the extent that they involve factors that legally either negate consent if known to or caused by the other party or which create a legal incapacity to consent independent of knowledge of the other party, which can include intoxication , youth, threats of violence, and other factors) tend to be things that play more of a role in the practical ability to convince a jury one way or the other than the ground truth of whether the offense occurred.
I've always assumed there is some kind of human moderation in the review process to stop things like this happening, after that they are approved and can be shown on websites as soon as the advertiser wants.

Relying on viewers to flag (presumably teenagers interested in smoking or gambling) doesn't sound like a good idea.

This does just sound like the interests ("gambling", "cigarettes & vaping") should have age appropriate flags so they can't be combined with the specific age groups.
If they're banning a free account and you haven't suffered any monetary loss I doubt if the court will take kindly to its time being wasted with a case like this. Any argument about data loss would be put back on you with "back up better next time"
> This is wrong in a lot of ways.

It's a factual statement. The "pay more - get more employees" relationship doesn't work with software development.

What to do with the ethics of this situation is up to you, I made no statement either way.
Thank you. As a native Polish dweller I'm fully with you on this one. Fortunalelly I have no kids so I just spend winters at home with my air purifier and laugh brutally at anyone concerned if their kale is exactly organic.

This very dubious text is a good example of why scientists need to go through some basic training, and articles need to be reviewed (even by your officemate!) before going online.
I'll repeat what I said in the other discussion:

What I find interesting is the little information they give you after a ban. Apparently if they explained the reasons of the banning then other people could use that information to find flaws and 'game the system'.

This means that, if you deliberately made something against the rules and were banned, you can then 'explain your mistake and the measures to not do it again'. But if you don't do anything unusual and simply break one of the crazy rules they have by mistake, it's game over.

P.S. If you have a blog and practically all of your visits come from a single source (perhaps a link in something popular) don't EVER use admob on that blog. You will be banned too.
The word `interlink` now always reminds me of:

And blood-black nothingness began to spin... A system of cells interlinked within cells interlinked within cells interlinked within one stem... And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played.
Using it isn't (although it will raise suspicion). Operating one is, as it involves what the US calls "money transmission", which is a licensed, heavily regulated business.

This person is accused of transmitting money without a license. It's the same charge that would be brought if you were hosting a custodial wallet that permits deposits and withdrawals, and didn't have a money transmitter license and comply with the regulations that apply (such as knowing and storing the ID of all of your customers, and making sure they're not on OFAC's lists of banned countries or banned persons). The mixing doesn't actually enter in to it.
I haven't thought about the specifics, but yeah that looks like a very nice variant.

Since Git has stash, it feels like my idea is mostly a frontend thing that shouldn't require much backend changes, if at all.
> such that your balance is $0 on a given day

I'm not sure about that one. Maybe getting the balance to zero on any given day (not just cycle closing day) is enough to reset the account? I don't know.

But I know they'll keep charging interest every month even if you pay in full every month, once the account goes into that state due to a single delayed payment.

Looks like it's called residual interest?

I would fully expect that receiving a good education would provide benefits even if you didn’t tell anyone specifically where you went.

Apple’s M2 chip has entered production and will ship as soon as July
I'm no way an expert on the matter but by pure logic it's still amazes me how we survived (and evolved!) as a species for thousand of years without almost no shelter from direct sunlight and yet now (too much) sunlight exposure is seen as a cause of death. I know we lost almost all the body hair we used to have but still, we usually wear clothes when under the sun.
> The release does not say these things

I'm sorry, but it does. Just because they chose not to phrase it exactly as I did doesn't mean they didn't invoke these logical conflicts. But please, there's no need to take my word for it—I invite anyone to read the press release and form their own conclusion.

> it is wrong to equate the existence of controls with the abuse of market power.

I agree that it's "wrong" to equate them, but equating them is a common theme among complaints about Google and Apple's dominance of their platforms' app ecosystems.

You make it sound like the ACCC is inherently on the consumer's side in any matter. One look at the borderline-corrupt Media Bargaining Code would quickly disabuse any objective observer of that notion. It could be argued that the ACCC was somehow incapable of comprehending what an internet link is or how news article snippets come to appear on Google and Facebook. That's certainly a more charitable hypothesis than the ACCC being corrupt unduly influenced by the political interests of the current elected Government. Whether it's incompetence or malice (see Hanlon's razor) it doesn't look good for them.
People expect rape to be some obvious, easily identifiable crime and it's often not.

They expect that because rape carries enormous jail penalties, because it's got a clear legal definition and because as the extremely low successful prosecution rate shows, most juries are not actually willing to send a man to jail for a decade on the basis of claims like "He invited me to his room, I brought a bottle of wine, we had sex and for months we were still friends because I told everyone I agreed, but now I changed my mind". That is not rape, and if she was claiming it was, she'd be making a false allegation of rape, which would be very serious.

This pretty simple concept has been relentlessly attacked for decades now by a rather nasty form of feminist activist who isn't satisfied with the standard definition of rape and who have been trying to change it to something more like this: "Rape is whatever a woman says it is". But they want the jail penalties to remain. That's dystopian and no honest person can support it, but sadly, many years of aggressive activism have resulted in the legal system being steadily chipped away when it comes to men and accusations of rape. That's why in the UK just a few years ago it was discovered there had been a massive set of miscarriages of justice, where men had been falsely accused of rape and sent to prison when evidence the women was lying was withheld from the defense. It happened because the woman in charge of the CPS had the mentality of "the victim must always be believed", leading to a collapse in standards. Many innocent men were jailed and their lives were ruined. Now one MP is campaigning to change the law to ban the form of evidence that was used to get the men released.

Honestly, I went into this article with an open mind. There are plenty of nerdy guys at programming conferences who don't know how to handle women. But this essay leaves a very bitter taste. As other commenters observe, she appears to be defining sexual harassment as "it means whatever I want it to mean at any later time", which is not something that can ever be fair to men.
Great point, this is what the moderation step should be for - to allow/disallow based on the content.
Making a web app is a massive exercise in handholding, where you are 400 layers away from the metal amd barely give a passing thought to how much memory is getting used. Include a whole new javascript library for a bit of screen candy? Why not.

Embedded system, you increased something from a two byte unsigned int to four bytes? Does it still fit on the device ordo I need to change the area in memory where my program is being loaded, do I still have enough space for the stack, was I disciplined about my mallocs and frees and always make the right size etc. Beginners can make a fair fist of a web app because you can screw up royally and it will still work.
Thanks! That's the keyword I was looking for!

‘They’re playing chicken:’ inside Mark Zuckerberg and Tim Cook’s feud
It also highlights the bias in law enforcement/intelligence that "stopping bad things from happening" is a good enough rationalisation to justify a lot of morally grey behaviour, at best. As a colleague once told me before starting on a support ticket for the federal police: "be careful, because they're trained to look for a suspect, not a root cause or solution".

What approximate time did you work there? Did you perhaps get to experience the difference between the situation before and after the Patriot Act, or before and after the emergence of ISIS? Or was this just the usual scope creep?

I'm old enough to have witnessed 9/11 live on TV and as I see it, there has been a downward spiral in the areas of privacy, the barrier for probable cause and the presumption of innocence - particularly in the US but almost equally egregiously here in Europe. Honestly, COVID isn't helping either, because it's just enough of a threat to be considered a security concern.

Deliver food for the family to their door every morning?

Yes, it is relatively expensive, but not prohibitively so.
It seems more complex than even what the law says, as in the end it is up to a judge/jury to make the call.

I don't know about Germany or the US, but Poland has (a) fairly strict anti-rape laws, and (b) a number of cases presented in media, where the court's final opinion was something along the lines of "meh, what's the big deal?".

I'm not sure that this is a general characterisation (might be) but certainly illustrates the law vs. decision maker split.

From what I can gather in the instances of other crimes, the same is true in e.g. US. You cannot shoot unarmed people running away from you, but then courts let people get away with it.

At the end of the day, the main sniff test, only somewhat moderated by law, seems to be "does this look like rape to me".
The article states "that corrupted apps on a targeted phone could basically overwrite any data extracted by Cellebrite’s tools"

Traditionally a non volatile memory chip is forensically read by being removed from the board and read out directly. Each sector is read from its memory registers. This is a robust forensic method since 1) its passive 2) its repeatable 3) you can fit the chip into another surrogate device and obtain the same results or use a different piece of software to obtain the results

If what cellebrite is doing is altering the memory when it interrogates it, this breaks the chain of custody. The process cannot be repeated.
> I refuse to believe that there is no way to allow for sideloading of some form on iOS.

I don't think GP meant that it wasn't technically possible, they were saying it isn't possible for this switch to exist without some popular apps eventually getting almost everyone to flip the switch and negate the whole point of having a switch.

I don't think I agree with them because Android already has this switch and I can't think of many apps that lots of users would want to sideload, except for Fortnite.
We had many similar double standards in Berlin. At the height of the Super Serious Measures, flower shops remain open. Then it's Christmas tree kiosks or bookstores. Churches were hardly ever affected. In any case, enforcement is nearly non-existent.

It makes you feel like a chump for following the rules. It cheapens the sense of emergency they try to communicate.
Exactly, and as is pointed out with android supporting different stores, the alternative already exists. I don't understand why people want to force their way of thinking on everybody else. I'm quite happy in my walled garden, and happy that those who don't like it can go to the other place.
