The IRS apparently agreed with you. The article sloppily doens't doesn't give a year, but:

> The IRS, meanwhile, was floundering in its efforts to police retirement accounts. At one point the agency recommended Congress prohibit IRA accounts from buying investments that aren’t traded on a public market, such as founders’ shares. That went nowhere, too. Instead, Congress began slashing the IRS’ budget, kneecapping the agency for more than a decade.
Backblaze's latest drive report shows an annual failure rate for hard drives of 0.85%. I very strongly suspect the total of all failures of the type you're listing there is many orders of magnitude lower than that across all cloud storage users.

If you care about your backups, a single cloud vendor/account vanishing isn't going to be a problem, in exactly the same way that if you care about your backups,m a single drive failure will not be a problem. They are both predictable and mitigable risks.

I should have probably have noted that in most places, slander is not handled in small claims anyway. And lawyers can and do appear in small claims. If you sue a larger company, large enough to have a legal department, then someone from their legal department will probably show up to defend. You can consult or bring your own lawyer, too. A well-designed small claims court system keeps matters of law questions to a minimum, which usually makes it straightforward enough you can't drown it in paperwork. Here, there's a limit on how much you can spend on costs, for example. So no massive team of lawyers seeking depositions and hired expert witnesses. And as always, if it gets appealed, then who knows?
Thanks for the historical background and correcting me about the role of the government in the program.
>The shock isn't so much at the number

Using the term "mass graves" or "hundreds of unmarked" is selling the quantity, with a strong implication that the deaths involved foul play.

And by foul play, I don't mean "caught a disease and died".
> Now I see they very well could as a response to arguments such as yours.

I think the parent is arguing that a Roth should be limited to some reasonable ceiling, e.g. $1M, $5M, etc.
Sure but that doesn’t mean that Apple markets the iPhone explicitly as one and it’s not like Apple is shy to not market one of their devices as such i.e the iPad. I think everyone is trying to fit these items in categories when they already have categories they’re marketed in. The iPhone is a Smartphone and has always (as far as I’m aware) has been marketed as a Smartphone. Just as the PS4 is market as a Game console because it IS a game console.

In the end what separates these are not by what they can do , cause in reality if someone really really really wanted to ALL these devices can run a OS that makes it function like a desktop/laptop. It’s about what they’re meant to do. We’ve seen Apple market something as a computer before and it was never the iPhone.
For certain notions of "read/write", the risk can be lower. You might make backups to storage, but not have permission to delete files. Or when you delete files, they are kept for a certain safety window (e.g. if you delete a file on June 24, the file is instead moved and can be restored any time before July 24, at which point it is purged).
> Why should anyone ever again trust your company to keep their data safe?

Because if you need a hard drive, your options are pretty much Western Digital, Seagate, and Toshiba, and they've all had their own problems.
Just like claiming 150 vs 1200 total deaths is: that's my point, people are coming up with guesses as to what explains the numbers, but the numbers are out there.

Basically, lets stop pretending what vaccines really do, and say the truth, and you'll likely get more participation:

1. vaccines reduce the chances of you catching or dying from COVID: by how much, impossible to tell yet

2. you can start increasing your exposure to other people without increasing the health risk to yourself or your family (iow, behave normally)

3. you help everyone by reducing the chances of transmission, and because we don't know real world efficacy (1), the more people get vaccinated, the better

4. if you are concerned with health risks from vaccination, note that they are likely the same as from COVID but lesser — if you are not getting vaccinated, follow the same social distancing rules you would otherwise.

While all of the above is widely known, that's not how it's communicated, which leads to people becoming sceptical of the vaccine.

Basically, it's the common elitist "we don't trust people are smart/reasonable enough to make their own call, so we'll feed them some propaganda".

This was pretty interesting read. Thanks a lot for your considered reply. It is so sad that licensing issues prohibit progress even at the academic level. We should have a public interest licensing-free zone around educational and academic institutions IMHO, this would align human interest with actual outcomes (free market for core ideas) instead of only respecting commercial interest.
> I can't find a human to talk to and

Obviously customer support is a finite resource.

That's why companies need to start paid/premium customer support: when you lost access to your account, you should be able to pay 10, 100, 1000 of money to talk to a real person who understand how the system works and where there a mistake was made.

Like a hacker stole your account and you cannot take it back? A special person will to do a background check (e.g. call your employer) to verify that you is actually you.

Robot erroneously blocked your account because of misclassified spam-like activity? Your account is restored, and you are fully refunded.

> I work for one of the 25 best places to work according to computer world.

These ranking are so easy to game. My wife worked at a small recruiting company in Dallas. This company always made it to the lists of best companies to work for in DFW, whether if it was D Magazine, Dallas Observer, or some online poll, this company was always was there.

The way these lists work is that a company submits an application to be included in the list. Not sure if application is free or not, but if application is accepted, the list maker would let the company know when they will email the survey link. My wife's company will always host a huge happy hour party the day before the survey email is supposed to go out. Some people who seems disgruntled will get a free day off. And some people will never get survey link at all. On the day of survey, there will be nice lunch brought in. And finally the owner will make sure that everyone fills out survey same day by scheduling a company wide meeting. During that meeting everyone is supposed fill out their survey while owner and managers are walking around the cubes. Oh and they would give speeches like how hard it is to recruit top talent and how working at one of the best place to work for will look good on their resumes.

And yes some employees are still checking their spam folders for the email link while owner and managers pretend they are troubleshooting.

As for that company, it wasn't bad for work life balance, it was just that the 40 years old owner was a party animal who wanted to party with 20 years old. He would favor people who partied with him at happy hours or went clubbing with him. It was nowhere near the best places to work for in the DFW. Benefits were horrible and if you were not young party animal, it wasn't a good place to be.

So should we have been buying from Amazon's competitors instead, even if they have a worse selection, worse customer service, few if any reviews, slower delivery, and are much more inconvenient to buy from?

Variety, choice, and a healthy competitive ecosystem are definitely desirable and to be missed with Amazon's dominance, but there are many reasons Amazon is ahead of other e-commerce sites and brick-and-mortar stores.

It'll be interesting to see if/when Amazon finally starts to seriously increase its prices once the rest of its competition are dead and there's no where else for consumers to go.

Will there be a reckoning? Will Amazon be split up?
We should discourage this stupidity of expiring passwords wherever we can.

"Western Digital has determined that some My Book Live devices are being compromised by malicious software. In some cases, this compromise has led to a factory reset that appears to erase all data on the device. The My Book Live device received its final firmware update in 2015.

You would disincentivize good investments and reduce GDP as a result.
If you have an attacker that can obtain the token within 30min, it is reasonable to assume they might obtain the token immediately, and use it immediately too.

JWT expiration protects against situations where the token is stored (or made to be stored) somewhere improper and later used, not being pilfered during proper use.

As the article argues, it doesn't even protect against a malicious user using stale credentials to wreak havoc, such as a disgruntled employee that had access to the precious admin panel being fired.

But Thiel doesn’t need a man-made island to avoid paying taxes. He has something just as effective: a very well-paid tax expert who knows the intricacies and complexity of the tax code that the politicians have created, and you don't.
Right, my bad: but the same holds true for non-vaccinated: it's 18k out of 853k hospitalized, so it's still apples to apples. The missing factor is, indeed, hospitalization rates for vaccinated and for non-vaccinated.
There are a lot of reasonable reasons people would list a sub-scale business on a site like those. Some examples:

Take an app that makes $500 net monthly and requires 1-2 hours per week of work. Solid hourly rate, why sell? Except:

- Sudden change in family responsibilities leaves founder without the small amount of time needed.

- The business might net $5k in a sale, and the founder has an urgent need for cash (for ex for home purchase/repairs). The founder resigns to a fire sale because she needs money now.

- Founder realizes the business will remain sub-scale until someone injects another $50k. Founder has a day job but not $50k, and has no interest in raising money.

- Founder's job reviews side project and decides it's too close to "competitive" and asks founder to dispose of it.

- Founder takes a new job that prohibits side gigs.

- Founder gets sick and isn't able to maintain the business.

- Founder gets divorced and is ordered to split the value of the business with ex-spouse. (A sale may be the founder's only option to produce the cash.)

- Founder built the app using tech X 3 years ago. Founder now viscerally hates tech X and would rather have $5k than keep using that tech.

- (Edit: adding this one) Founder was just learning business when they started this business, and now wants to aim bigger. This business could be a good starting point for someone else in their personal development cycle.

Basically, there are a lot of reasons a founder might sell that have nothing to do with the business or its prospects. There are also reasons that have to do with the business not being a fit for the founder at that time. Due diligence is key when buying anything.
By definition "directly connected to the internet" means if a device can on its on accord, direct requests to an entity, ask it a question, and act upon it is true. From what I understand these WD boxes go to a management service in the cloud. and were told they should factory reset. Whether something is pull-only (as in this case) or push (say allows HTTP or SSH access from a random on the internet) is irrelavnt if either result in unauthorised activity on a box in your home.
For a "right prompt" showing the time in particular, though acknowledging it'll get overwritten if you're writing a long command (which may or many not be what you want), running `printf "%${COLUMNS}s" "$(date)"` from PROMPT_COMMAND does the trick.
Basically it’s deprecated technology, anybody using for “legit” reasons needs to migrate to a new solution anyway.
That with a Roth IRA you pay the tax rate when you're working, and a normal one you pay according to the tax rate when you're retired?
Don't be silly! That could never happen to my crypto exchange
And in the OP:

> That January, The Wall Street Journal reported that Mitt Romney, the former private equity executive running for the GOP nomination, had listed on a financial disclosure form that he had amassed an IRA worth between $20 million and $102 million. The story ran on the front page and launched waves of coverage in other publications. Romney had a traditional IRA, not a Roth. But how, people wondered, could the account have grown so large, given that the government imposed strict limits on how much money could be put into one of the tax-deferred accounts?

> Citing former company insiders and documents, the Journal reported that during Romney’s time as CEO at investment giant Bain Capital, executives there had effectively bypassed the contribution limits by putting extremely low-valued shares from private equity deals into their IRAs, then watching them balloon.

Not fake news, well known facts being presented as news.

The volume has been turned up to 10 and the media wants you to react. To get angry. To be controlled.

Remember George Floyd? All of that stuff is still happening but the protests have moved on. The calls to defund have changed. This social movement is stalled.. until the next cycle. But day to day injustice keeps happening.

Don't be part of the outraged mob unless you plan on being outraged for a longtime.
Sure, my bad, but my point was to compare incidence rates for vaccinated vs not, and 18k deaths are also out of 853k hospitalizations.

Keeping the comparison valid even if badly "misnamed", if hospitalization rates are the same (which are not reported here).
... not the administrator of your personal calendar?
I would hope that the assertions I made after my first firmly planted me in the former category. I think we're in total agreement. I wasn't going to spell the whole thing out, but I appreciate that you did. Your final point is well taken.

It least at one point in the 2006-2010 range, Google would display a Chilling Effects link to the actual DMCA takedown request when some of your search results were censored by a DMCA takedown. The DMCA takedown request is required to specifically enumerate the censored URLs.

The end result was a DMCA takedown often resulted in an indirect "Certified by Sony" link to non-fake infringing copies.
Seems to me like experts are just following the herd advocating the things most politically palpable. For example, the public likes travel restrictions, and (a sizeable subset of them) become viciously outraged over herd immunity, so whatever scientifically-based policies countries had previously are dropped under the guise of supposedly learning more. Yeah they learned better how to keep their jobs.
Any single backup is a stupid idea. Combine them, and you've got a great backup solution. Why would I keep important data in one physical location?

My house could burn down tomorrow, but I'd still have my cloud backups. My cloud backups could roast in a fire tomorrow, but I'd still have my local backups. And probably several other cloud backups.

If you put all your eggs in one backup, sooner or later, you're going to get screwed.
Seagate mitigated their most famous problems. They were a good bargain buy for a while after that as they tried to rebuild their brand. Issue is now they're too proud of themselves, you're better off buying something else. They might still be the cheapest per GB for certain sizes, just look at the backblaze stats.
Could this happen if your router is not open to the world? I dont get it to be honest, maybe the device sends queries commands home? that seems unlikely
It's a great idea, but it will only work if it comes with a UI library that doesn't suck and a software distribution mechanism that doesn't suck. No-one wants to install "an app to run an app", so you need to distribute these applications as either native executables or something equally convenient, and it needs to be completely trivial for application developers to do that or they won't bother. That's the reason Electron is winning at the moment.
A "backup plan" which involves manually copying files around is no plan at all. It's basically guaranteed to fail when you forget to copy the files for a while, or when you give up on it because it takes too long.
The first post had the original title and it had 5 votes. Now this clickbait title and it blew up.
I’m curious how would this work for products like apple? One would argue it’s only as good as it is because they control their platform fully.

I definitely saw an increase in grey hair as work gained more stress.

I have been thinking a bit about stress. I keep fish and when they get stressed, fins deteriorate and color fades and eventually they die. I don’t think that is too far off of what modern society is doing en masse.

I think we all need more relaxation. Maybe some of my grey hairs will re-color! Haha

They had no way of managing private keys, privately or properly at all

They did it anyway, in one instance one person turned in their computer for routine IT maintenance and it was wiped! lol! Its pretty obvious that a person like this only had a passing interest in crypto and never made any backup

Hi, HN.

Why isn't there a single front-end build tool that builds web apps and libraries?
