Congratulations, you are part of the 0.1%. and yet every day millions of unrepairable phones go to landfill, petrol cars are still being produced, coal is still being burned.

Maybe enough is enough, democracy is more impirtant than 'free market'. I want to nail the invisible hand to the cross to make a point.
I happen to be shopping Kinesis Freestyle keyboards today. A common complaint is the ABS keycaps combined with something in the case design echoes the switch noise, even with Silent Reds.

Lower quality keycaps at the Kinesis price range being be main gripe on the Freestyle Pro.
I really don't like Facebook but I think it's quite accurate. Zuckerberg is the face of Facebook and revealing dirty secrets of his would likely hurt the company value beyond the 5B pricetag.

I don't think it's just though.
This will resolve itself naturally: as populations fall, housing and land becomes much cheaper, and wages rise. These are major factors predicting fertility rates in the West.

However that natural feedback loop will be disconnected if Governments worldwide are permitted to import millions of people to replace the populations.
Here's a way to send a giant middle finger to greedy record companies and the overzealous Google algorithms: put just a id+timecode in audio tracks, then make a browser extension that recognizes it, then finds, grabs and plays the real audio track from a p2p decentralized network.

Seems complicated, but actually is perfectly doable.
I don't think that's clear. I am curious to see how this will be handled by the supreme court.

This methods used were actually similar to the way the old police system worked. They'd put out bounties and citizens would bring people in.

The battery life was never stellar, compared to previous and of course current Airs, but my daughter can use it a full school day without plugging in.

>Anyway, I think the idea that a $1300-$6500+ laptop ships with a glued-in, non-replaceable component that Apple themselves admits is "consumable" is just absurd, regardless of how long it may last.

This is where my view differs, since I can just hand it in for replacement, I don't have any issues with that. To me it doesn't matter at all if I can do it myself or not. Well except if you have to leave it at the Apple store for several days, then that's very inconvenient.

In general I just see it as a practical and financial question, and since I use my laptop 10 hours a day, and earn a very good salary from it, 200 dollars more or less every three years is really insignificant.
I don't think many cheaters themselves actually care about ladders and rankings. They just derive personal entertainment from ruining other peoples fun. This is why cheating was always a significant problem in online shooters long before they introduced ranking systems. It's also why entirely non-competitive games (like Minecraft) have problems with griefers.
Not you personally, of course. But I would have thought that the risk of the rumors this kind of pressure being used as a weapon by competitors, if nothing else, would have come into play to minimize this type of undue influence.

A better example is aviation, especially commercial. Planes come with Pilot Operating Handbooks (POHs) that contain checklists specific to the aircraft for preflight, inspection and failure scenarios (eg loss of engine power). Manufacturers periodically update these by issuing advisories and addendums to POHs. The FAA also publishes such advisories.

It's just like me not giving a second thought to getting in my car, driving down to the market that's 1.5 blocks away to pick up some eggs. When I didn't have money, didn't have a car, that was unbelievable to me. But now it's just second nature.

To people with wealth at that scale, hundred million vs single digit billion might not be such a big deal. (I mean it's one order of magnitude to go from x00 million to y billion, so it's not that far fetched for a rich person to take that as is)

The real discussion should be why the fine was so low and wasn't in the hundreds of billion to trillion range in the first place. That's the real steal.
I just grabbed that from the support article because it was first in my search history - that's the support article related to @domain.com workspace users, so it's framed in that context. For the purely consumer use case (it's the same):

Well, we don't actually know that. Can a different CEO do a better job with Facebook? We haven't any idea as we have never had the opportunity to find out. But I agree that it's generally bad for shareholders if your CEO ends up in prison.
We can't even get police departments to agree to keep their body cameras on. Any such requirement you'd pass to officers like that would get wrecked by the police unions / F.O.P.

Our police aren't organized at a national level in the USA: its a collection of 10,000+ departments, some of which are incredibly shallow (say 1 sheriff elected by the locals and 5 deputies).

------

To practically start something like that, you find police departments that are likely to agree with each other (ex: NYPD + Boston PD), and then maybe get an agreement between their Commissioners. You grow the alliance one step at a time. You're gonna have to figure out "why would the police want a system like this in their procedures?", such as arguing for a mitigation of accidents or whatever. Or maybe giving the police some kind of power (ex: official announcement to close a road and redirect traffic)

You can find something comfortable in nearly any boot style, since they're almost all based on designs that were actually intended to be used for long stretches of physical activity. Work-boot styles (obviously), equestrian styles (western, Chelsea, jodhpur), military (chukkas, "jump boots"), and hunting (which even includes most "dress" styles, which are typically based on rural British hunting/stalking boots) all have practical-wear lineage, and usually are little removed from the originals, if at all.
> Why do we give special status to “the earliest known people to inhabit a land”?

Because generally speaking the later arrivals view the earlier people as subhuman and engage in horrific acts of violence against them. So it's not really that "earliest known people = special." It's more that displacing, dominating, or eradicating a people ought generally be frowned upon, and that's what has happened to many (most? all?) indigenous peoples in places like the Americas, Australia, etc.

I don't have any answers for you about how to test for membership, and you're absolutely right that this particular aspect of the issue is fraught. I'm not an expert but I believe that in the United States at least this question is left to the tribes themselves. ("The courts have consistently recognized that in the absence of express legislation by Congress to the contrary, an Indian tribe has complete authority to determine all questions of its own membership."[0]) That seems reasonable on its face at least, but it does have the unfortunate side effect of recreating the issue one level up: the United States government decides who is and isn't a tribe, and that's just as fraught.

These aren't straightforward issues, you're right, and they deserve a candid and in-depth treatment. But let's not get too far from the fundamental point, which is that it's pretty awful to show up on the shores of a continent where a bunch of people live and then destroy them and/or their way of life.

If you're not exercising regularly and you have pain triggered by programming you should give exercise a chance. It has worked wonderfully for me. In my case just running 5k every week has done the trick. Pain went away magically and never came back. I have no idea how running can prevent what seems to be unrelated pain but I swear it worked for me. I now use the most basic keyboard and mouse and I'm fine. I don't know if it will work for you but it's worth trying.
As someone who worked on/with the ad serving stack, I agree with FireEye's stance on this one.

The problem is this: ads are basically browser-injection-as-a-service, as in injecting code into websites of your choice, targeting audiences of your choice. Browsers mitigate this problem somewhat by sandboxing cross-site stuff in the webpage, and ad networks theoretically scan the payloads for malware like miners, but those tests aren't hard to work around. So ads can basically run whatever they want within the little aperture of an iframe that they get.

If there's a zero-day like the Internet Explorer JPEG renderer zero-day (https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/965206), then the ad networks are basically broadly targeted zero-day-as-a-service.

Ad blockers aren't a bad first line of defense for this.
That's not really what DRM IMHO -- sure it says that on the tin... Once the video or game is cracked once, the DRM is done. It just provides hurdles and extra barriers for the first person. Once somebody finds a "hack" method that works, they can clone and resell it up until their greed belies their customer's wishes of being undetected due to small player pool using the hack.

And yes, hacks are "rootkits". It's kind of funny how they work. Some of them work at the memory level, or packet level. They require you to disable anti-virus, all firewalls, etc. The only incentive for them not to hack the user is a recurring subscription cost that's often more expensive than the game itself (leading to rage hacks where they are known to detected but the delay in detection-ban lets the user play still and farm RMT items).
I guess I'm ok with nuance and gray areas and anti-colonialism in a way that doesn't feel like a contradiction. Sorry that's hard for you.
A Google side panel says last quarter Facebook doubled it's net income to $10 billion.

So year over year, Facebook made that money back last quarter.

If the lower settlement might have slowed year over year growth, five billion would likely be money well spent.

Particularly if there wasn't an obviously better return for the cash. When you have billions of cash on hand finding investments that size is a hard problem.

Keep in mind that the fine is an operational expense. Right off the top, there's potential double digit return from reducing taxable income. In addition, the company better maintains the book value of goodwill assets without the depositions and can borrow money at more favorable rates.

On top of that, executives and staff aren't spending time in depositions and answering tough questions from the press.

The interesting thing is figuring out why it makes sense despite my direct experience. Even though I would have preferred they gave me some of that money instead.
It's not every email, it's just the ones in the main inbox (as opposed to notifications, promotions, social, etc). At least for me, it usually maps almost perfectly with human-sent emails, so it's a good feature because I very rarely check my email manually.

It's pretty rare for me to receive more than a couple notifications a week at most.

For the last year or so I've noticed an increasing amount of my legitimate professional interactions going into my "Promotions" tab in Gmail. The effect of which has been, after discovering a few mishaps of this sort, to now regularly and meticulously go through a massive pile of "Promotions" just to make sure I haven't missed something legitimately urgent or important. Prior to Google's classification errors producing this particular anxiety I used to basically treat the "Promotions" tab as spam to never look at. Now I'm going through all of it with prejudice which means I'm waaaaaaay more aware of marketing drivel than I used to be. As such, I'm pretty sure this "error" is intentional on Google's part to produce exactly this outcome of drawing eyeballs to inbox advertising.
You seem to be thinking these are contradictory things. In fact, they are complementary. The payment depends both on value (of course, that's subjective, market-driven, influenced by fashions and passions, insert all disclaimers here) and on negotiation skill. If you're a fresh intern knowing next to nothing, no negotiating skill would give you the position of a senior architect with accompanying salary. Bad negotiating skills though can harm you, even though extreme lowballing is dangerous for the employer too - people know what are general salary levels and if you lowball to the extreme, they'd get pissed off and leave for better pastures in exactly the worst moment. Because other employers have interest in high-value people too (or even in cheap moderate-value people).
"The world is on the precipice of decline, and possible extinction."

Stopped reading right there.

EDIT: An ever growing human population is not sustainable. Heck, even 8B people may not be sustainable. But I'm pretty sure that human population is not going to go to zero. We could find that something like a stable population of say 4B people is much more sustainable, but it's hard to imagine it would ever go much below that (excepting nuclear war or bioweapons that could get out of hand).

> The implementation is also sets an extremely problematic precedent

I'm pretty sure this is how the old policing system worked in the U.S. they would set bounties and citizens would bring people in.

In this case, I'm 99% confident it'll be deemed constitutional and isn't really a problem.

States can do what they want, it's extremely problematic that people in other states feel they should apply pressure on people thousands of miles away.
The broken system doesn't mean we don't have the right representation - we have to figure out how to amplify it and fix the system imho
I'm not sure what the pressure would be. And there are dust filters everywhere but the rear fan (which is exhaust anyway). The fans are pretty similar, and at least by count: 5 intake (2 radiator, 3 bottom), 4 exhaust (3 on top, 1 rear), plus GPU exhaust (not counting the power supply since it is behind everything). There are some tests on YouTube of this case and running the radiator as intake if it is on the side was better for thermals, from there I think the way I have it at least isn't the worst setup. Open to suggestions, but as I wrote, thermals are quite good (to me).
Who is to say that it isn't working as intended in building a higher wall around their ad garden? There should be a way for them to accept mail from self hosted users, or even provide some sort of testing tools (perhaps validated by credit card some type of bar to increase accountability? At least an RBL or something) for those who do, but nope.
This is what decline looks like
> many bugs I've encountered aren't due to a bad initial design but because of additional requirements that get added later

I only sorta agree with that. The initial design here wasn't great, either. While the multiple constructors likely more or less handled the various cases properly, it was still a recipe for future mistakes. And that's the kind of thing I try to drill into the heads of junior developers during code reviews. Instead of solely thinking about the problem at hand, they need to think about how the code they write might need to be changed in the future, and guard against possible mistakes and misuse. No one will ever be perfectly prescient, but we can at least try. Sometimes there's no substitute for experience here, though.

I do agree that additional requirements added later can put us in a bad spot. But I think if we examine why that is, though, we have to demand more rigor when these kind of updates happen. I get that there's often some urgency to adding these sorts of things, but that update would never have passed review by me. I would have insisted that the code be refactored so constructing that class would have been safe by design. I get that it's not really the "fault" of the person making the change ("oh, the code was like that already; I'm just adding something to it"), but that's not really the point. The changes made an already not-particularly-safe interface and made it even more unsafe to the point that the change actually broke things.
>climbing rapidly up rankings (in a 3rd party ladder) is going to be very suspicious

Hard agree here. There's always been people accusing semipros of cheating (see r/VacSucks for more) though, so unless it was pretty concrete, it wouldn't mean anything.

>And if the humanization is so good that it can literally never be detected

It's not that the humanization is good, it's that the cheat is poorly designed enough to be only as good as a really good consistent human. Though you're right that it's not going to be the holy grail.

>The only way to be totally sure are if the game is played on a LAN and the equipment is sufficiently controlled.

Hard agree as well. I've been hoping for online majors to be called off, but alas.

I think having various stabilizer muscles be stronger induces you to hold your body in a healthier way. (I think this both because I've heard people say this, and I've felt it myself, although from rock climbing rather than running). It seems like the various basic work of holding your body up and out of tension is essentially free for those muscles if they are strengthened and flexible _at all_, but a sedentary lifestyle can atrophy them to beyond that.
