This is your, what, third account in a few years posting exactly the same kind of sensationalistic self-pity? That doesn't really seem like posting in good faith.

“ This is selection bias. The people who get CAUGHT doing it are complete idiots.”

I used to know a Wall Street guy sometime around 2005. The way he presented it was that there is a ton of variations of insider trading going on. People talk to each other and insiders are always ahead of the general investors.

I tend to believe that. As creative , greedy, competitive and smart these people are I can’t imagine them not taking advantage of every opportunity they see. Also, in most other industries the regulators mostly go after the smaller guys because the big guys are too hard and expensive to prosecute.

Can't you even hear how ass-backwards this sounds?

The existence and wrongness of this shitty "panel" thing shouldn't be the OP's problem. She didn't build it, didn't order it, didn't ask for it, didn't want it. It is wholly, solely, only and alonely Google's problem, Google's fault, and Google's responsibility to clean up their mess.

Stop putting the onus on the OP; stop painting the "solution" in the terms -- on the terms -- of the perpetrator.

Exactly. Governments tend to accept "we lack the technical capability to comply with your request" (unless said capability is legally mandated, e.g. so-called "lawful intercept"). They do not tend to accept "we possess the technical capability to comply with your request but choose not to do so".

It would help if you specified a problem with the proposal or with the Advisory Committee on Open Banking in particular. If you can't, then a guess of "Canada's banks are upset about competition" is a really exaggerated immediate post.
The other key difference is instead of having complex quoting rules, TSV just disallows the tab character in the data.

You use the right ANSI characters - the record and field separators (30,31) - and avoid hacks like comma, pipe, and newline.

I met my financial planner when she cold called me at Sun.

She worked for the company handling Sun's employee purchase plan and stock option plans. I've stuck with her as she he moved from company to company (generally by acquisition). Establishing a standing order was simply a matter of calling her up and telling her what I wanted to do. I'm not sure how it was implemented on her side though.
In e-Discovery our metadata is exchanged in csv format almost exclusively with one caveat, the defacto delimiters are Pilcrow and Thorn. We've solved the quote/comma in data problem, but as soon as we start mixing character sets, someone writes a load file in ANSI all hell breaks loose.
I still remember my B-tree implementation in college. The professor wanted us to run it against his data. I quickly commented up my debug prints which introduced a bug with an "if" statement and failed for some of his test cases but I got most of the credit. Later I found the cause of the bug and got pissed off for such a silly mistake.

Not sure how this fits, but often we don't get services like this these days because of the pricing model. We like a lot of these kinds of things, and we subscribed to a bunch (many cancelled now), but they all added up and didn't really charge us based on our usage. Perhaps we aren't the target audience as you want people who integrate this into their regular work so people use it all the time. But for us, we'd want all employees to be able to use this, but if we don't use it, we pay nothing. When we do use it, we really want max concurrent users to be charged (concurrent being not necessarily exact time, but within a day or so ). i.e., if 1 user uses it for 10-15 minutes for the entire month, we want to be charged something representing that usage. Then we'd be much more likely to signup and have this kind of thing available if and when we need it. Or any other model that seems fair for occasional / spikey use, psychologically, we just don't want to feel like we are paying for something we aren't using when we don't use it.
To be honest, a lot of this is already happening and I don't think the Democrats care. When voter turnout is high, Democrats win hands down. When voter turnout is low, Republicans win. But the kicker is that both parties thrive when they are losing. This may often be counter intuitive to many people but I think many have bad priors when modeling the game that politicians are playing.
I would pay a small one time fee for a good collection that would save me the time having to read the documentation. The API collection store could allow developers to create and sell their collection. They could also have sponsored links, you could target people with specific needs.

WHAT. THE. F.

I'm a longtime, happy YNAB user. I had no idea this was going on until just now. I always just assumed there were secure APIs used to import my data. YNAB's Capital One "integration" stopped working a few years ago (possibly because they cracked down on screen scraping?) and I was upset with Capital One. Perhaps Capital One took steps to prevent insecure access/screen scraping?
I believe the killer feature would be to automatically register the domain name as soon as it becomes available (à la SnapNames or DropCatch).
> Such as when I rented my most recent apartment and they asked to use open banking to verify our finances

There was a Launch HN recently that did just this, but for people like Uber drivers wanting to borrow money to buy their own car. They handed over their Uber credentials, and the service scraped their Uber history to determine whether they were a good risk or not.

I'm not usually into slippery slope arguments but what your landlord asked of you is just that little bit worse than their service (worse as they have access to your bank account, not just your payroll data).

I think the moral of the story is that as a provider (Uber, a bank), you should be proactive about providing read-only access to data, removing the need for screen scraping and providing better security to your drivers/customers.
There was a time when I was playing around with programming/changing small WMs, while following Java based university stuff.

During that time I often had a "IntelliJ" only instance of X running in some TTY1, some other WM or just a raw TTY on TTY2 and a maybe crashing WM I was playing around with on TTY0 ;-)

Fun times.

They needn't try to force Telegram to implement such a system when Apple has already deployed the necessary technology at the OS level. Of course Apple will comply with the laws of the country it operates in, and won't want to be seen as profiting from piracy.

I feel like the rural coverage issue is misleading and overused. Look at their coverage maps:

Most of my province (BC) is not covered. They cover the urban areas and some wider areas along highways in plateau regions. Where is this burdensome coverage that is keeping them expensive?

I'd hazard a guess that you don't even need to make a killing or do it suddenly--every insider scheme I've heard about involves getting company performance data a few days before it is publicly released at an earnings call or a 10k (or notice of an M&A a few days before it is announced).

If you consistently make directionally-correct trades (no matter how big) on one particular symbol (or derivatives of it) within +/- n days of earnings, that probably raises your risk score. Probably even more if your trades are always the same day of week before earnings or same number of days before earnings.
Usually it's forcing the programmer to handle the null case statically, by wrapping the underlying value in something like an optional type and defining the operations that access the underlying value. Think of swift's optional unwrapping in "if let" statements

"That's the thing about insider trading. People who do it are just complete idiots."

Maybe in this pumped up bull market certain individuals have restrained from Insider Trading, but it's alive and well.

In college, I was a errand boy at a finance business in SF. The amount of insider tips I heard was staggering. I would be a rich man today if I had a bit of money back then. (The owner of the business did get close to going to jail, but it was over something else. I believe it was tax evasion. It didn't help he was Ed Meese's Financial Planner at the time.

I live in Marin County. A wealthy enclave that espouses liberal values, but are ruthless when it comes to their money. They share info at Wholefoods, or the charity dinner they get tipsy at. Hell, if I had money, I'd be tempted.

They trade a lot of information.

For years, the SEC was very small, and it's not much bigger today.

Hell, the only real money my dad made in the 90's was from an insider tip over thanksgiving dinner from a father in-law. (My dad passed, and the SOL is long gone.)
I've upvoted your question, and keep hoping someone will chime in. That certainly looks like the closest match.
No, not binary.

I realise that you're talking about global Governments, but when it comes to the United States, Government pressure cannot compel Apple to expand the on-device searching because that would be an unequivocal violation of the 4th Amendment of the US Constitution. Because it is a search of your private property compelled by the Government.

(After a photo is uploaded to a cloud service, a search of photos stored on servers doesn't enjoy the same 4A protection as this falls under the so-called "third party doctrine".)

(Apple searching for CSAM is also not a 4A violation because it was Apple's free choice as a private company to do so, and you will have agreed to it as part of the Terms of Service of the next version of iOS.)
It's cross-platform, safe, (reasonably) standardized, and fast (in roughly that order of priority). Even if you only care about the last three, there are not all that many competitors outside of maybe Metal, which is not the API what most people are thinking of when they say they don't care about working cross platform :P Vulkan emulation exists for some older machines, but it's generally slow and janky due to the impedence mismatch of trying to build a very low level API on top of a high level one.
I've worked in a cheese plant. The metal forms can be very greasy, and as the soap water cools off it is very noticeable that stuff doesn't want to get clean. Heat the water back up, and stuff cleans far easier.
Yeah, like Pelosi's husband getting insider information as wide as the Grand Canyon !

I knew a guy in Houston 20 some odd years ago who got tagged for commercial bribery. He hustled/befriended the employee of his much larger competitor to buy crates of his junk cylinder heads he bought at 10 cents on the dollar - - - for 90 cents on the dollar. A total of like $700,000.

The prosecutor told him if he copped out he would reduce the charges to some misdemeanor, no jail, and no fine. It was a no brainer, he kept all the ill gotten gains.

Crime pays.
> I would ask: Isn't this better? Having someone else's photo and location attached to your work means you would never be identified in public, not receive death threats, nor be at risk of swatting.

But the people in the photos now run those risks in stead. That may be somewhat "better", depending on your morality, but most people would probably say: Not by very much.
Yeah, we support OpenGL ES-3.0 with a few major caveats.
So would changing it to potentially avoid losses.

They should have removed all orders the day they became an employee.

I know high frequency trading firms that are heavily inconvenienced by insider knowledge. They have to shut down so many things. Securities Insider trading is really tricky in the US as it isn't a specific law specifically about insider trading, only a bunch of court cases by the securities regulators that they sometimes won.

Obviously €500m wasn't enough of a deterrent, and anti-trust authorities need to be able to issue exponentially increasing fines to produce either compliance from or the dissolution of the repeat offender.

The only question up for debate is what the base of the exponential function should be.
You're not wrong, but you're vastly overestimating the possible effect here even if you are right about the reasons for being unvaccinated. And I'm quite certain you're wrong about that. The reasons are mostly the same as here - misinformed younger people.
This implementation is developed by firefox (at least, last I checked). Google has an implementation along similar lines in C++ called dawn, and I'm pretty sure webkit plans to use dawn. So you see them in Rust/C++, but no one has written an implementation in go afaik.
You're right, it's not. It's been about 7 years since I played it, but I remember it being about how complicated it is to have power over people, and how you can't avoid compromising when you have competing responsibilities. It's set in an authoritarian state, but it's not about authoritarianism: you could set the same game in a lemonade stand, or a baseball team. It's just that having that role in that context really hammers the point home.
Millions of people can now feel better about their five-houshold Netflix account insider sharing ring.
Rust is great for this!

Google has an implementation of WebGPU called Dawn, which is quite impressive. It's written in C++.
> an adversary could trick Apple’s algorithm into erroneously matching an existing image

This is a very real, possible attack. Apple ships its CSAM model on device so any attacker can have a copy of the model. Then the attacker creates an image that triggers CSAM but looks like a panda [1]. Now the attacker sends tons of triggering photos to the unsuspecting victim, who now gets questioned by the FBI.

I think Novus, Fibrestream and friends are good examples that support the idea that the market is healthy and oligopolies don't have the ability to use their position to choke out smaller players.

I'd wager that Canada is still largely a wild west when it comes to physical copper coverage. Meaning big players do project long term profit from rural markets and actively invest in them, but that the projections aren't sustainable below some price threshold, hence butting heads with CRTC to make the math work out.

As for the notion that country bumpkins ought to be satisfied with inconvenience, I'm not sure how to respond other than more and more they expect modern things to be available to them. A customer is never in their right mind going to shoulder a 100k upfront cost to lay fiber to a town, so if someone wants to make the cost benefit analysis, it's most likely going to be one of the big players, IMHO
And if we were all emotionless machines, you'd be right. But we're not, so you're not right.
This is how I wish more companies used Electron. It makes complete sense to me as a stop-gap when you're starting out, need to grow fast, and are still experimenting with your product.

Where I get a bit frustrated is when companies stay on Electron. Slack knows—or should know—what type of product it is at this point, and so the developers shouldn't be pushing transformative software updates with any kind of frequency. So, step back and take the time to build native versions for each platform. Users will appreciate that their computers are suddenly faster!
I expect none do, and this was probably implemented through a financial advisor who either has their own bespoke system for doing stuff like this automatically, or perhaps something more manual, like setting price alerts and then having a team of people react to them.
"Encrypted messaging application" is probably used as a scare phrase to bolster their case. iMessage, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Signal, Telegram and lots more would qualify.
One other thing we've noticed is how slow Confluence and Jira are together. It's fascinating that stitching these products together under one Atlassian service (through acquisitions) hasn't served to provide a good or modern user experience.

We built our "define" feature to allow for spec'ing, and docs. And let's not forget how frustrating markdown is in confluence. We're working to really service markdown well in our text editor, and should have it released soon.
For all we know, Safari on Windows(!) is going to use Dawn. But anything on Apple platforms isn't quite clear. They may get their own implementation.

The super elite hypothesis is interesting, in that it lacks a plausible mechanism. By and large you would expect that educating and equipping more people would produce more progress in any field, up until there is more coordination tax than benefit from adding more people.

Is it possible that the sciences and other fields have exceptionally high coordination taxes? Or is it likely that we’ve structured them such that only a small number of slots exist for people to move the needle.

The latter seems eminently true given the finite number of conference slots and the former seems true given the the need to convince more people of a given direction.

If such a dynamic exists than the advent of communication technologies may actually hamper forward progress due to elimination of smaller research networks.
