To elaborate: While most of these tools can be configured to comply with GDPR, it is not their default configuration. The tools and products predate GDPR, and being enterprise software they value backwards-compatibility over other aspects of functionality. So out of the box, they engage in practices which are non-compliant.

But of course, most companies assume that the default configuration is compliant, since that's the entire point of the product, right? Companies think the product is a compliance solution itself and therefore compliance is purely an IT problem of deploying the software and legal doesn't need to be involved. But in fact the software is actually a platform for scaling and automating enforcement, and legal actually needs to be involved to figure out what compliance looks like.

There are several studies showing that a huge fraction of GDPR/ePD violations are actually a result of using consent-management software but leaving it in the default configuration.
North Sea oil exploration dates to the 1850s. The modern era began ~1964 with commercial offshore drilling.

>Hopefully, OCaml 5.0 will then be released between March and April 2022.

Just to call out expectation-setting here in the comments: yes, the MVP of multicore will ship in OCaml 5.0, but OCaml 5.0 will ship no sooner than March 2022 (and very likely some point later, based on how challenging it appears to be to integrate the large-scale changes for multicore).
Is it not possible the ads are being shown to more people than usual due to greater usage of Facebook properties immediately following it coming back online?

I can’t find anything that indicates individuals are seeing more ads than usual as a result of the outage, besides the anecdote of the one agency in the article (but maybe the lower conversion rates can be explained by some other factors)
Tracking how? You know how browsers can download malicious software blocklists as one large local list insteas of consulting an online service for every url which would allow the provider to know what you do?

Their ad setup works the same. The browser downloads an entire country-specific catalog in one go, and decides what to show you completely locally. Whether you trust their cryptographic setup that tells them you've seen an ad is another thing entirely and is its own brand of black magic.

But the basic setup is simple. They sell adspace and show you ads from that local catalog. Brave takes a cut, users get a cut. They have a tipping service to compensate creators.

There's definitely parts that might be suspect, like that proof of having seen an ad.

And even if it all works just as intended, there is the concern that ads that don't track are generally less valuable so even widespread adoption of Brave's system would cause a decrease in ad revenue and thus ability to keep sites up and running. We've already seen the fallout of Apple's recent anti-tracking changes, and Brave's system is definitely similar in effect.
> despite a lot of them growing up in much harder conditions than your average black person in tech.

How would you know? And how do you measure it?

It was harder to grow up in Kiev because you were in worse poverty than blacks in the US. Possibly. Were you also discriminated against in Kiev? Was your family broken, and your community broken? Did you have a failing school system relative to others in your community? It goes on. The point is there are many systems that make up "black in America" that doesn't translate to only family income.

They're choosing a very unethical, and (given their own ads) hypocritical funding model. The corporate speak euphemisms for this model signal the further underlying rot.

Increase in supply is not inflation. It’s quite unlikely to cause any actual measurable dilution. But let’s pretend for a second. Given that all major stable coins are pegged to or benchmarked against the dollar, any inflation in the dollar would carry over into stable coins 1:1 so the remark would be a nonsequitur.

The very first line:
"Access - The ability to make use of information stored in a computer system. Used frequently as a verb, to the horror of grammarians."

Access can be used as either a noun or a transitive verb. The first known reference as verb was in 1962 in computing, over a decade prior to the article/paper. Grammarians may wince, but most languages change with patterns of use. Thus come the saying that the many exceptions of English are impossible to learn.

After all, in Middle English access meant "sudden attack of illness".

> I didn't fail to, I didn't even try to.

So you're just going to ignore an entirely valid concern?

>1 - there is a process of public representation and societal input via elected government representatives, transparency, equality, and indirectness. EVERYONE pays the local government which then decides on priorities and apportions funds. Their taxes, like your and my taxes, go to all government services not just police.

you seem to arguing for something entirely different. rather than the pipeline company paying $x to fund the police department, you want the pipeline company to pay $x the local government so they can fund schools or whatever. While that's a reasonable demand, it's also entirely separate from what's actually happening (ie. the utilities commission requiring the pipeline company to fund the police so taxpayers aren't on the hook to secure their pipelines). It's not really "oh no the police are corrupt because the pipeline company is paying for them!", it's more "oh no the pipeline company isn't funding local government services!".

>2 - does not and is effectively equivalent to paying protection money to the mob.

I'm not sure what's the point you're trying to make here. Is the government the bad guy here for making the pipeline company pay police for protection? I'm sure the pipeline company would be happy to get rid of an expense.

They’re all unregulated. Coinbase was included in their list. The word “unregulated” was a flourish added by cointelegraph as a distraction.

> Of the 81 exchanges evaluated in the report, only 10 provide volume figures that are legitimate, according to Bitwise.

Coinbase is regulated as a money transmitter, like Venmo.

[edit] what I believe they meant was that 95% of all trading volume was fake and 100% of that came from the less reputable exchanges.
It's actually a common arrangement with charities and other non-profits, done that way to make a tax and administration boundary.

The subsidiary is a for-profit, but the profit all goes to the parent non-profit, which is then constrained in how it can use that income.

Think of a little charity shop that sells, say, second hand clothes in order that the profit from sales funds a charitable purpose like fighting cancer. The little shop is likely to be a for-profit company, wholly owned by its parent charity.

Charities have to follow strict rules about how they spend their money, care for their assets, make decisions, report on everything and be audited.

Everything they do is required to be demonstrably for the charity's purposes, which clashes with the on-the-ground flexilibilty required to make business-like decisions for something like a shop. For example when you decide to spruce up the lighting at the front of the shop to attract customers, which only indirectly serves the charity's goals.

That may be a poor example. The point is that the subsidiary business can be run more like a business, being managed, making decisions and spending its income in the freer way a business is allowed to do. The parent charity retains shareholder-like ultimate control, but that is indirect control; the subsidiary has its own directors and executives.

In the case of a shop that means it can spend on things that may attract customers, take gambles that may bring in more profit for the parent charity to use, and make day to day decisions that aren't subject to the same level of reporting, auditing and trustee oversight that the parent charity is. The shop's operating assets are outside the charity, giving it operational flexibility, but when it transfers some portion of assets as profits to the charity, those assets become inside and how they are spent becomes more tightly regulated.
$20 says you’re a manager
My dad sometimes talks about ow my grandfather used to have a picture framing business after he retired. Very rarely made anything past the bills, but he was on government pension and just needed to get out of the house. This reminds me of that.

We still have some things that he framed (certificate of family name origin, some pictures and the like). It instantly bring classiness level up a ton, but man is it expensive.
In my observation the less people pay you the less they will respect you, not more, despite whatever favor you think you’re doing for them.

While I agree with your sentiment and am working through this issue myself... the appeal of the entrepreneurial grind goes hand in hand with a lot of religious suffering, or specifically a Christian martyrdom.

However, I'm no where near cured, and hearing your take definitely helps.
> The amount the execs negotiated is reflected in their salary

No it isn't - salary is salary, and these deals existed when the Mozilla CEO was not paid as much. By her own admission, at one point Baker just went "fuck it, other CEOs get paid multiples, why not me?", so now she brings home $3m per year, with the whole exec structure likely benefiting in similar fashion (because why only the CEO?). See: https://calpaterson.com/mozilla.html but it's on wikipedia too.

That's $3m that could pay for a dozen engineers at Bay-Area salaries, or 30-60 in cheaper locations - maybe enough to match (or surpass) Google's continuous push for new specifications that forces everyone else to play catch-up all the time, as well as stacking the standard committees where Mozilla is systematically overpowered.

> I doubt that Baker is getting anything near Beard's salary

You're right, she's making 3x Beard's salary. Even with 7 years of inflation, that's a lot more.

Mitchell Baker has given a lot to Mozilla, but she's now very clearly decided it's her time to cash in.
> "Undefined behavior" is a lack of semantics, so it is preserving semantics when it leaves those paths out.

It's not preserving semantics, it's inferring a valid program from an invalid one, but since the programmer entered an invalid program, unilaterally deciding that the valid program was the intended program seems dubious at best. These should really be errors, or warnings at the very least.

The biggest news, buried near the bottom:

"After I returned to the U.S., I obtained a document showing a detailed account of Tether Holdings’ reserves. It said they include billions of dollars of short-term loans to large Chinese companies—something money-market funds avoid. And that was before one of the country’s largest property developers, China Evergrande Group, started to collapse. I also learned that Tether had lent billions of dollars more to other crypto companies, with Bitcoin as collateral. "
A browser is not "expensive". A modern marketing tool is expensive.

Take out all the crap, and strip it back to a plain browser. Freeze all new features. The only maintenance that is needed is security patches. That shouldn't need more than a handful of full-time devs. They could be paid using just one exec's salary.

I'll maintain my contribution to Thunderbird; if Mozilla doesn't feel like helping financially with that more-or-less unique product, fair enough. But I'm not OK with having to drill into about:config to disable Firefox Pocket's hijacking of high-profile screen real-estate - why hasn't it gone yet?
I do a lot of running as well and have observed the same effects. After anaerobic sprints or a race of up to 10k, sleep HRV drops / HR is higher and running HR:pace is elevated for up to a week. However, usually this is then followed by some improvement in all of these metrics compared to the baseline before the hard workout. Anaerobic exercise builds/maintains especially fast-twitch muscles, and higher muscle mass has positive influence on many health markers; as we get older we slowly lose muscle mass, but the losses are predominantly fast-twitch muscles [1]. So I believe anaerobic workouts are very important, despite causing quite some stress temporarily. Totally agree they require a lot of recovery inbetween.

Unrelated, out of curiosity, when you say 80% of your training: is it in mileage/time? Or some effort metric like TRIMP, calories, avg. HR, or so? Or something else?

This requires the finances to do it, the health to handle it, and a lack of responsibilities to others. Then there is the desire which a lot of people don't have. Only a limited number of people can realistically do this. To assume it's open to everyone, I think, misses the contexts most people live with.

It highlight the need for hobbies. I find it somewhat odd that in my own culture, hobbies has become less prioritized in the image of an well adapted healthy individual.

But if you then over-intensify the bike theft enforcement in that area, you will continue to have an over-reporting of bike thefts in that area, leading to more intense bike theft enforcement, eventually leading to an unjust and unethical police presence across the municipality.

I agree, but would add the importance of #3. You can't transform/manufacture things without some process for doing so (or doing so more efficiently or effectively than was previously possible), and the physical means to this itself needs to be created/manufactured. It's 'tooling' and there's a kind of chicken-egg thing going on.

Of the four issues, all were resolved quickly and according to community wishes.

1. Unverified Brave Creators UI - Two days after the complaint, Brave issued an update to "clearly indicate which publishers and creators have not yet joined Brave Rewards so users can better control how they donate and tip.
Tom Scott, the original complainant, tweeted in response: "These are good changes, and they fix the complaints I had!".

2. Affiliate Links to Crypto Exchanges - Two days later, Brave released a new version which they said disabled the auto-completion to partner links, followed by a blog post explaining the issue and apologizing. Def the most scummy of the list IMO.

3. DNS Leaks with built in TOR - An issue was discovered and fixed via their Bug Bounty program, where they have an average 6 days to bounty payout.

4. A company violated their terms of service.

I definitely have my biases, although I don't use Brave daily anymore. But I don't think the controversies section you linked is particularly egregious or indicative of bad faith.
