That’s not the only perspective. Suppose everybody started building devices and vehicles packed with hardware that the user might never access or use? What happens to the device when it’s decommissioned? Is the breaker’s yard allowed to strip and part out the subscription-only hardware? Why should a thousand customers burn fuel pointlessly to haul round features they don’t use? Who owns the actual hardware in the event of not-subscribing? Suppose the unwanted hardware causes failures or interference elsewhere?

It’s one thing to toggle feature flags, but I doubt the seats are heated by overclocking an Intel i9 on bootup.

That's exactly the case.

And one bit of Swedish society that is a bit invisible to the outside: it has an extremely draconian approach to drug abuse. Even though it's a Nordic country and touted for being socially progressive, drug policy here is extremely regressive when compared to Portugal or the Netherlands.

So usually the homeless I see in Stockholm are addicts (alcohol, heroin, amphetamines) that fall through the cracks of the system as they won't stop abusing substances which Swedish policies have no way around to help them, it's extremely punitive for drug use, as even use is a criminal offence. In the case you are taken in custody by the police they may force a drug test and if detected you'll be punished.

This all compounds to leave a marginalised population that has inadequate support to fight their addictions (usually caused by mental health issues) and kept in limbo between the streets and courts to be ordered to get clean.
Yes, central banks buy government bonds from commercial banks but that is irrelevant. The commercial banks effectively act as pass-throughs. They buy government bonds knowing that they'll immediately offload them to the central bank. The way money printing works in the modern economy is much more complicated than it used to be, but it boils down to the same thing with the same problems.

Follow-up question: what if other countries follow suit, especially ones that don't use a Latin-based alphabet? Egypt is formally called "جمهورية مصر العربية" in its native language - should that be recorded as the ISO Full name for EG?
You'd probably also have to back up wherever those apps store the decryption keys for that content and then hope that you never trigger the case where those apps decide that those keys aren't valid on your computer any more and you require a re-authorisation from Apple's servers.
I've used it plenty and still use it. It is getting better in places, but just look at the tube map - large parts of the system still lack step-free access, let alone the problems the system has in other ways (overcrowding and people not giving up their seats or making space appropriately); we should be trying for (in-city) transport systems that don't require such congregation.

The last time I travelled the tube with a wheelchair user with a pain condition, the (non-strike) closures hit in such a way that we couldn't reach our destination without going on a detour that was so long (more than an hour) that the system assumed we'd forgotten to swipe out and back in and charged a penalty fare. The people manning the help-intercoms were unable to assist in finding a route that didn't have closures. And it's normal to have to find alternative, slower routes than the ones everyone else can take.

With that logic, education is the primary enemy of the middle class.

Seriously though, this demand to control the supply of labor is a strange one. Everybody is for meritocracy and free market until they are expected to perform. Working permits are like the taxi medallion system.

If someone who speaks native English, went to British schools, have a network in the country thanks to living there since ever cannot compete with someone from, say Romania, it's only fair for the immigrant to take the job.
Remember that John Sculley has been the only one who could. Kinda. Sculley invented the Pepsi Challenge, (and infamously failed it on camera) signed Michael Jackson to promote and went off to Cupertino and did some interesting things there too. But Coca-Cola Company had Michael Bay and still does. If you're dealing in visual impact imagination Michael Bay's a trump card.

If the option can be enabled in the future, doesn't that mean the car is having the hardware in the seats? (Heating coils, or what have you).

> The harsher the climate towards immigrants in laws and officialdom, the easier they are to exploit. The anti-immigration voters who demand this harshness are shooting themselves in the foot a bit, and should reconsider.

That ignores opportunity cost. There's a reason there are camps at Calais, and it's because those in the camps believe - rightly or wrongly - that they are better off applying for asylum in Britain than France.
As shitty as it is, it's nice of Lenovo to at least make it easy to enable the second CA. I wonder if all OEMs will be as "nice", or if any will require you to boot into Windows just to edit the EFI variables to add the second CA.

Edit: Also, I've read a few horror stories of systems no longer displaying anything after the UEFI CA was removed from the trusted CAs, because there was no iGPU and the discrete GPU required an OpROM. No display meant no way to boot into the UEFI firmware to revert that change or even disable SB. How is that not a problem now?
Nope, just ban importation of such devices. Existing ones will join the waste heap soon enough, and then why bother banning the activity if any device capable of it is inherently contraband?
If they can see a significant effect is a small number of participants, that is good - it means they didn't need to search for the effect of UV light, it was obvious. The reason to have a big sample is usually to control for side-effects in drug testing. Often, the big sample size will mean that even very, very small effects are statistically significant.
"Which currencies are as strong or are in a better position, and are backed by stronger economies than the euro?"

One thing you can do is use :ets.slot/2 to do random probing of the cache and evict entries. The way to do so is simple, just have a process every few milliseconds check a random set of keys (say, 50 keys), and check if they expire. If >25% of keys were about to expire, repeat this process again instantly, until the % of keys expired in the batch is <25%, then poll periodically.

This is how Redis versions prior to 6.0 implemented key expiry. It's a very simple algorithm and can prove quite efficient at evicting expired keys without having to constantly scan the entire range.

From my understanding a large factor was the haphazard banning of imported fertilizer by the Sri Lankan Green party and the resulting drop in crop/produce yields (I think more than 50 % overall). Turns out that modern agriculture cannot just be dialed back to organic farming without significant losses in productivity. In my opinion a textbook example where ideology-driven politics clashes with the hard facts of modern engineering.
True, until every manufacturer does it (like with headphone jacks on mobiles).

In this case though, only laws and regulation can protect consumers from crass corporate greed.
It's always interesting to read such articles. 7,500 Employees? Bah, too much! 100 Engineers will do!!

I raise you to 50 employees, the number WhatsApp had when they reached 1 billion users.

So where's the mistake the author makes? Simple: Twitter is a globally active social media application and, as such, falls under local jurisdiction in a lot of countries. E.g. in the European Union, Twitter has to remove content flagged as "terrorist" within one (1) hour. 24/7. Yes, on Thanksgiving Day too.

And that's what the bulk of employees will be: content supervisors. Moderators.

Or "age verification" agents - Britain has it's "Online Safety Bill" in place, and it applies to any social media site accessible in Britain.
Same goes with Cabo Verde, Costa Rica, Les Seychelles

You should familiarize yourself with the leaked material. Breaking the law fully intentionally happened in many countries and in many aspects, not only against some stupid regulations which car can pick up passengers where. Why did they have kill-switches in their offices? And all the time they systematically made sure that if something happens the drivers will be punished, but their own money is in tax heavens. The whole business model is about exploiting people: I bet > 90% of their drivers don't understand the concept of deprecation. Somewhere else in this thread it was said in Switzerland a full-time Uber driver earns about as much as a traditionally employed taxi-driver. Except that in a traditional employment the employee doesn't pay for the expenses of running the business (including deprecation). It's the same as if a naive business owner does not understand that revenue is not the same thing as profit.

Besides that the whole model is about exploiting people they implemented it in so many shady and criminal ways. They claim no longer doing the latter after the management changes.

Some people think buying clothes from sweatshops in Bangladesh is fine. Others think exploiting local drivers is fine. Or they just deny to learn the facts. I am not one of them.

They made a it crystal clear what it would have taken to prevent that and what they demanded wasnt even all that unreasonable - respect minsk 2 - something they already agreed to, dont join the NATO gang and cede crimea. All 3 were rejected.

The west refused to even accept the result of a landslide referendum whose veracity was confirmed by our own polls.

It's a good thing respect for democracy isnt a cornerstone of what we stand for coz one of those three demands was just "respect a democratic vote". Imagine the optics of pensioners dying of cold in the German winter because the Americans rejected democracy.

There are a few exceptions. E.g. the UK is more like the US in terms of job security.

But most EU countries have pretty strict rules around firing people. This ties into the social well-fare system which does not like people entering it for frivolous reasons. Especially people close to retirement age who are effectively unemployable because they are so expensive to get rid off. Which is an interesting dynamic where people close to retirement have to constantly fear layoffs not because they are useless but because they are a liability for their employer.

Mostly companies not following the rules end up engaged in expensive court cases where the judge typically rules against them unless they followed the rules. Court mediated settlements tend to be governed by simple formulas based on years of service, age, etc. So, mostly companies do the right thing and you typically get a fair offer in line with that as they prefer for things not to escalate that way.

I've been through this process once when Nokia started laying off masses of people. I got caught up in one of those waves and they gave me a generous deal and even some startup funding.

Usually, they can fire you and then make you work the notice period, which really sucks. I was lucky and they gave me gardening leave instead. So, I literally dropped everything and never did a minute of work for them again. Out of the building five minutes after they gave me my notice. They did not kick me out but just told me that I did not have to do anything anymore. Going cold turkey like that is not fun. In the period after that I bootstrapped my first startup and managed to get my former employer to fund it. Great experience overall.

But still, getting layed off was a shock. I had to do the walk of shame to the unemployment agency. That really sucked and they treat you like you are useless scum. You are just a number in the system. I literally went from being a principal engineer that just got a raise because to a great performance review to being out on the street dealing with crap like that. The good news was that it wasn't personal. They needed to cut some percentage and my team got squeezed in the middle. Corporate politics basically.
The fact that the hardware needed for the heated seats is already there and you're paying to turn it on is the weird part. For BMW, the cost of the heated seats must be very low if they're prepared to install them in all cars without knowing if the consumer will pay for the them or now.

It's like buying a new laptop and paying to unlock additional RAM that is already installed, just not available. It would make me feel like the cost to the manufacturer is so low if they're prepared to risk it, that me paying for it after the fact feels like I'm getting ripped off (or that I've already actually payed for it in the original cost)

> No building in the world, not even Cheyenne mountain can survive being in a nuclear fireball or even close to one.

Reference? I thought those were built specifically for inhabitants to survive even an overhead blast.

Edit: My parent comment is not aimed at specifics of detonation, but rather the poor quality of instruction. The focus should not be immediately surviving the blast. If you're caught unaware, survival becomes a matter of luck rather than hurried preparedness. Its more to do with "what" and "how to" after the event. Those are way too crucial. For god's sake, even WikiHow has a better and far more detailed page on this topic:

As to your other question, they would be a victim as they are a slave. Return to their country of origin should still be favoured though (but not mandatory).

Not ignoring it - the in in calories in isn’t what you put in your mouth, it’s what you can absorb. Hence why you don’t count fiber towards your calories.

Again, the digestion point seems to reinforce CICO. If you gain weight because your digestion is slower (let’s grant the point), it’s not because your body some how treats calories differently, it’s that you’re getting more calories from your food. Your calories in are higher.

Not to mention that diet products have existed to game your digestive system to absorb less calories from your food. With the rationale being… less CI in CICO. See also: folks abusing laxatives for this purpose

Practically, yes, but Turkey is a sovereign country and it can ask the UN to call it in English whatever it likes. And indeed - they have requested that their official English-language name be now Türkiye. One of the stated reasons is that Turkey is homophonic with 'turkey' (the thanksgiving meal), which further has a connotation of 'lousy'. This is 100% real, their current leadership is a bit strange: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-61671913

Of course in reality people will keep on calling them Turkey in practical every day English. But the UN has a policy of honoring such requests by the country itself - probably to avoid meddling in politics.

In addition to the cost of the energy required to actually heat the seats.
This has been going on for ages in hardware. Anything reasonably sophisticated in silicon has features that are there, and just need to be enabled. With cash. It makes perfect sense, once you get over it.

Do you know that in some cars, the driver's seat comes heated, and for the passenger seat to be heated is an additional cost option? Power seats sometimes have the same optionality. Not quite the same as renting the feature, but similar market strategy.

Some cars make you rent the Apple Airplay feature.

Your comment makes me think of this essay by Branko Milanovic

> It doesn't "learn" like a person learns

Who cares? Why should you hold the idea that it would? They are systems moulded after data, 'learn' seemed to be a decent label. If it is not, it is because "learning" is _active_, by philological analysis, and happily consistently with an aim of AGI (intelligent entities learn actively).

A computer does not compute like a human would. Yet, no problem.

For that matter, you are using 'person' in a very individual way - not even "personal" (a "person" learns according to individual nature, while you are using it as a collective term).

As already expressed - nearby I wrote 'biomimicry' -, what you are calling "anthropomorphizing" is a wrong direction: "evolutionary algorithms" were born out of keys after the observation of the natural world, and the terms express that - it is not that you saw the algorithm and went "It looks like my uncle Oscar"¹ (this side is active - it "learns").
