This is one of the best answers I've read to this question.

It's not only the Cloud act but also the FISA act and the executive order nr.12333

The EU data protection head has made it clear that Standard Contractual Clauses do not suffice, as a workaround.
EU and US administrations are trying to work out a working compromise, but no progress yet (and frankly, not likely to happen soon, as there are more relevant priorities)

Courts are slow, but they are starting to affirm the EU law.

For example,

the Austrian Data Protection Authority (DSB) ruled that the use of Google Analytics and thetransfer of personal data to the US violates the GDPR.

the French data protection authority (CNIL) also confirmed that these personal data transfers to the US are a violation of the GDPR.

These are the first decisions from EU data protection authorities in response to 101 complaints filed by https://noyb.eu/en , so more to follow...

Quite obviously, the same principle applies to any service that sends data to the US. (for example, fonts can be used to track user; IMHO push notifications might be next, because, even if encrypted, provide data^Hmetadata that combined with other data reveal a lot about users behaviour...)

The Portuguese Data Protection Authority ruled re. data processing carried out by Cloudflare for the Portuguese National Statistics Institute. Cloudflare declared to use its own servers in the European Union, but CNPD noted that Cloudflare had data centers all over the world and there was no evidence that, in the event of an emergency situation or legal order, personal data could not be transferred outside the EU in jurisdictions that don't provide equivalent protections.

The CNPD had ordered the immediate suspension of data flows to the United States despite the adoption of the standard contractual clauses.

Expect more of these decisions in the coming months.

Auditors don’t hate you for no reason. They have the tricky job for being (formally) responsible for signing off on practices they know too little about, get shitty documentation for while not getting enough time to understand. To make matters worse they get paid a lot, but get paid by the people they audit whom fire them for withholding signatures. Looking at firms they they think “why do they always send me the wrong documents, at the wrong time while withholding the documents I need and only bringing them up when I’ve escalated the matter to the board”. It’s a crazy relationship from both sides.

Honestly, as a free market person with 15 years working with auditors I sometimes think that external audits need less market and more intervention. Then I remember most government oversight is even less effective. Every government agency (EU / NL) I know of is both awed by a big-4 rubber stamp and an avid consumer of big-4 hours. My humble conclusion is that oversight is a hard human problem.

Maps also has one of the most restrictive licenses I've ever seen in the industry. If you stop using Maps you're required to delete all data and all derived data. The only time I've ever seen a more restrictive license was when using Bloomberg. At least in that case it made some modicum of sense given that there was a lot of manual data entry going on in the background.

The larger issue is that even though I would like to use Google in some cases, I know that I can't trust them. As a company they need to seriously rethink their approach to fostering customer trust.

This happened in India. The student was caught with a mobile phone, which in turn led to further questioning.

IIRC, it was the lead developer who implemented the original prototype in his own time who decided the license, not the Blender project. I don't think Cycles was ever GPL as it was developed as a standalone project that could be integrated into Blender rather than an integrated renderer that was split out.
If you want to step up and be the maintainer of one or more of these modules in the standard library, I'm pretty sure you would be welcomed. PEP 594 is basically just a formalisation of the fact that no one has volunteered to do this yet.
Correct. Many Linux users want Linux to "win" because they think they know what's best for people, and think that people should not be allowed to give over their personal information and privacy (which everyone presupposes Micro$oft takes from you) in exchange for working software. It leads to rhetoric and propaganda that's detached from reality, but it's for a good cause (getting people to switch to Linux).

>"They don't commit crime because... crime sucks, it's not fun, and it's not really necessary for most people."

This doesn't explain vandalism, joyriding, or kleptomania. Additionally, the notion that "it's not really necessary for most people" is true, but misleading. But have you considered that some people realize theft is an easier alternative to being gainfully employed? Why bother putting up with a boss and paying taxes when I can steal a single catalytic converter and make $2K under the table? That's like a month's worth of salary gained in 20 minutes.

>"The people who do crime aren't like "haha they won't prosecute me, sweet, finally I can go commit crimes". They're desperate."

I don't think you have ever met a criminal. Some are desperate, but why can't you recognize that crime is lucrative and a preferable alternative for these people? For lots of people, if they can get away with it, they'll do it. Their conscience doesn't bother them like it would for you and I.

"I don't think these laws are very well structured (they're not even clear enough that you have to dig through 15 different sources and recent court rulings to figure out what to do) "

"The headache will be worth it"

Those are contradictory, which is my point.

What if it turns out you really don't need to host your data in the EU? Then it definitely 'will not have been worth it'.

Unless there is some timing risk whereby you risk actually damaging your business because you're under threat of service degradation or litigation because you're 'behind the ball' in which case there might be some rationale for doing it ahead of time.

We don't even know for sure what bits of data might need to be moved to be compliant, or that the 're-architecture' itself may not be sufficient and will require 'another rearchitecture' ...

Do something when it's clear that it needs to be done, otherwise, I don't see how there is any upside at all.

Alphabet's total revenue in 2021 was about $257B. If, say, a billion users paid an average of $257 a year, that would be the same annual revenue. That doesn't seem at all unreasonable (less than $22 a month for actual services for me as a user unadulterated by ads and without privacy concerns? where do I sign up?), particularly since if they were just providing services users actually need--search, maps, gmail, etc.--and not having to add on all the extra effort of advertising, it would be cheaper for them to provide those services to users than it is now.
The surgery was done by an ENT (ear, nose, throat) surgeon. I'm not sure if it was within the ear or not, as the device was "skin coloured", though that may be because of how thin the ear's skin is.
I had a rather different interpretation. They write the "modern edition is strictly limited to farming". I think the surprise is that an 1880 farmer version contains non-farming content.

They also don't discontinue any service as long as at least 1 customer* uses it. Which means: you will have the old (in your opinion probably lower) price forever, as long as you don't upgrade.

That's a very important distinction: increasing prices for users who can't go away and increased prices for users which migrate on their own to the new pricing structure. As far as I know, Google does the former which always has a "fader Beigeschmack" (DE; dulm aftertaste?) IMHO.

This is not that different from the "serious" discussion now about NFTs, and other crypto stuff. We've got something that's objectively nonsense but people don't want to look stupid so they pretend they understand and participate in it. There was a thing recently about KPMG buying an NFT. NFTs were being sold at Sotheby's or Christie's (until whatever tech bros ran the NFT pulled out to troll them), etc. Its all BS, but for laypeople, it's just a different brand of magic they don't understand. No different with this Pi thing (except eventually they were smart enough not to go through with it)
IMO... you don't. Microsoft won the day (for now anyways).
> how it is perfectly possible to orphan an entire project[1] if a person leaves your org

Maybe not the best example since this (unlike other IAM oddities) actually makes sense - it can only happen when you don't have a top-level org tied to a project, like when you do something like using a gmail.com account to spin up GCP resources. Inside a GSuite org, this is not the default and I can't imagine how it'd happen by accident.

If your project is not attached to an org, and all the accounts tied to are gone, then what else do you expect?

> Gsuite and GCP may superficially appear to share a bunch of stuff but that just sets you up for some very cute surprises, from which it can be extremely difficult to recover

The way it's implemented is actually quite nice for complex scenarios/defense in depth - for instance, you can set it up such that whoever owns the GSuite org does not automatically get access to all GCP resources. Of course, any security measures good enough to restrict an org admin's privileges also have the potential of locking yourself out in a way that's semi-irrecoverable.
We as a society accepting the high costs of long term incarceration is an answer. It might not be a pleasant answer, or even an answer that everyone accepts. But we don't make that decision individually, we do it as a whole of society.

I'd bet the percentage of people that would rather pay to imprison people, rather than deal with the treatment / relapse loop is at least 25%. Likely even higher if you take it as a percentage of the gainfully employed.
With bone conduction audio via adjacent teeth, that would be achievable, less invasive and probably easier to avoid detection of.

I always figured that the ability to set an arbitrary phone number was a feature for the benefit of large corporate PBX systems. Every person at the company gets their own phone number, but the number of physical connections to the phone company is limited. The PBX can set the identity on an outgoing call to match the phone number of the person who initiated the call, no matter which physical line it uses.

This is a great analogy, basically plotting startup success on an evolutionary NK landscape [0]. Finding optima rests on a healthy balance of exploration and exploitation, as in the behavior of ant colonies searching for food. Apple has been a good historical model of this in business, though for a startup it's often necessary to keep the chips all in on one product. Ideally though, a pivot isn't a random jump, but is rather guided by an incomplete map of the landscape. Herein lies the value of the MVP, but it's curse is being difficult to throw away, especially once it has some traction.

Ok, first off - a lot of cars do know which tire is which. Most do it by associating certain TPMS IDs with certain tires. This is what the technician is setting when he does a TPMS re-learn (or reset) after rotating your tires.

Other vehicles actually know which is which without being told. I'm not sure exactly how this is done, but I'm guessing/vaguely recall hearing they do this by using multiple receivers.

As for tracking from a distance - these sensors have very low output power, and a lot of their signal is blocked by the metal wheel. It can somewhat be done but you'll need more than one receiver per block if you want 100% coverage.

Sources: worked as a tire shop technician for a while, messed around with SDR, read a lot online.

I guess that doesn't strike me as perverse.

A perverse incentive is an incentive that has an unintended and undesirable result that is contrary to the intentions of its designers.

Just because your target market is hard to reach doesn't mean it is perverse incentive or strategy failure.

More adds may drive some targets to alternatives, but as long as you make up the difference with the remaining eyeballs, it is a net win and not perverse.

To be perverse, you would have to show that you can make more sales with fewer ads
