I envy you a bit. Living in an urban residential area i'm just now getting to the end of 2.5 years of poorly managed construction by the private landlord next to my own home. I got to the point of initiating legal action before they decided to cash out their investment and sell the property to a charitable foundation, who have been far easier to deal with.

I do feel you on the problems, but the idea of the construction job being complete in only a 9 month timeframe sounds like a luxury.

That has nothing to do with subscriptions. The manufacturer could still sell you the car with the heater disabled, make you drive around with the dead weight, and charge you a one-time fee to unlock it. That would be perfectly acceptable under this law.
I'd be surprised if they did a meaningful staff reduction without hitting 50 employees at their main office in south SF. A 5% reduction (alleged in the tweet) is something like 400 people for Stripe.

Furthermore, the DOL has already described what this means for employees without a clear single site:

> a home base from which work is assigned

> a home base to which workers report

Which arguably will make it worse for a remote team, because all the remote workers may count towards the main hub. This is all vague though, I think there are colorable arguments either way.
I think SHA-3 is almost always slower in software, in theory SHA-3 could be hardware accelerated of course, but on both current AMD and Intel systems it's not, where SHA-2-256 is.
Filburn grew wheat for sale and in excess of the production controls, intending to profit from the wheat he sold while also maintaining his own supply.

The connection to interstate commerce was based on the totality of the wheat he grew, not just the excess portion of it that he claimed wasn't part of interstate commerce. And notably, despite all FUD to the contrary, subsistence farming of wheat for personal/non-commercial consumption was legal at the time. That's why they had there was a threshold in the first place; to protect non-commercial wheat farming.
It's not just social media, remember when the Daily Mail was complaining about an "openly gay, ex-olympic fencer" being allowed to rule on a Brexit case (as if being gay, openly or not, or an ex-olympic athlete has ever stopped people from being a) competent and fair judges or b) right-wing nutters)

I don't think Snap is an inferior solution, as much as Canonical is trying to put Snap where it doesn't belong.

AFAICT, Snap is a pretty good solution for server side apps. This is pure speculation (and I don't even know if the timelines line up), but I suspect Canonical developed Snap for server apps, but something made it economically non viable (maybe the popularity of Docker?) and so they now needed to generate money through it some other way and they decided to do it by using it as a workstation app distribution mechanism, and by locking it down for enterprise.

People think Al Qaeda, ISIS etc are a huge threat, and yes they're very concerning... But you know who's even better and motivated at killing Americans? Other Americans.

> Microsoft posted its own disclosure on Wednesday that said the security company “greatly exaggerated the scope of this issue” because some of the exposed data included “duplicate information, with multiple references to the same emails, projects, and users.” Further using the word “issue” as a euphemism for “leak,” Microsoft also said: “The issue was caused by an unintentional misconfiguration on an endpoint that is not in use across the Microsoft ecosystem and was not the result of a security vulnerability.”

> Absent from the bare-bones, 440-word post were crucial details, such as a more detailed description of the data that was leaked or how many current or prospective customers Microsoft really believes were affected. Instead, the post chided SOCRadar for using numbers Microsoft disagreed with and for including a search engine people could use to determine if their data was in the exposed bucket.

Is MS really victim blaming and shaming the customer? Surely a bad way to do business, primarily because it damages and erodes customer confidence and trust. Shocking.
There are differences in awareness between drivers though. When I drive a car, I (quite literally) ask myself whether there's a motorcyclist around at every junction or right turn (in a LH drive country) I come to. My conditions are pretty unusual - I'm primarily a motorcyclist and rarely drive (to the point where I find myself nodding involuntarily at riders even when I'm driving). I'm not sanguine about raising people's average level of awareness - of motoryclists, or anything else! So I agree you wouldn't choose it as a road safety strategy. I'd still keep antenna up for anything that might amplify awareness though.

That is an extremely bad analogy. The purpose of chores is to spread the load onto an otherwise unproductive member of the household. (And to teach said household member how to do them.)

Yes, but it was unclear.
> I'm so tired of people wanting to turn Telegram into Signal

Oh, no, please! What I want is the other way around: turning Signal into Telegram, i.e. keep bolting features onto Signal until it has feature parity with Telegram, or even what Telegram did five years ago. That would be a dream.

I disagree that e2ee can fundamentally not deliver Telegram's experience, at least not far off. It may need more local processing and indexing (storage), but generally it's all possible. It's just a ton of work that Telegram has sunk many millions into and will cost even more to do securely.

What you are absolutely wrong about, however, is claiming that it's all the same.

> Telegram doesn't use E2EE but the privacy and security are in no way compromised.

There are various scenarios in which your data on Signal is safe in ways that it is not on Telegram, and more actors can see your data on Telegram than on Signal. Thus, both security and privacy are impacted. That much is plain as day. Whether that is worth the trade-off, is up to you.

It's fine to have opinions and a conversation about whether the whole e2ee concept is silly, but please don't give your friends and family false senses of what the practical impact is for privacy and security when choosing these trade-offs by saying it's all just as safe and identical.
I use Ubuntu Server on all my headless stuff. It's boring, in the best way possible. I install it and set it up, run `apt-get update && apt-get upgrade` occasionally (I should enable unattended upgrades but I haven't), and otherwise don't have to think about it at all until it's time to upgrade to another LTS 2 years later.

Those LTS to LTS upgrades are kinda painful, but not unexpectedly so, considering you're catching up to the past 2 years of evolution in the whole ecosystem at once. On personal computers, I hate that model, but on servers, I'd much rather spend up to a day or two fixing stuff at a time of my own choosing once every two years, than spend less time fixing random issues which crop up at random intervals during a routine apt-get upgrade.

SNAP is down ~$3 (27%) after hours.

Revenue has increased 6% YoY. Average revenue per User is down to $3.11 Q3 2022, from $3.49 Q3 2021.

Net loss is $360m Q3 2022, from $72m Q3 2021. $155m of that was due to restructuring.

Where does Snap go from here?
Modern native american issues really aren't part of the national conversation or public knowledge. Missing and murdered indigenous women is an ongoing problem that persists today, with little attention. Our country has only in the past decade started coming to terms with the fact that Columbus was a rapist and a slaver - still has the national holiday.

There are many terrible things that our government has done to indigenous people in the past that are still painful (in addition to the things that are still happening), and it feels in poor taste for someone outside their community to say what they should think "if they have any sense".
A Quick look alternative is preinstalled on Fedora (GNOME sushi). Just press space while on the file manager.

It's not equivalent. With QuickLook, I can not only preview files, I can manipulate them. For example, I can crop an image, or add a signature to a PDF, or even edit an image that I'm previewing on my computer with my phone or tablet and the result is on my computer instantly.
Wow. Everything in that article reads as an admission that canine units are utterly useless, even as the article tries to defend their use. The primary argument seems to be that dogs need constant and immediate reinforcement in order to be effective, and therefore double-blind studies are not effective measurements. This same argument would also imply that canine units are not effective in the field, since the handler wouldn't be able to provide accurate reinforcement.

The tricky thing is that labelling speech/media one disagrees with as a threat to democracy is in itself a threat to democracy.

No, I think the parent's comment was about cognitive dissonance amongst US people or media, so the discussion is about US attitudes.

Yet another reason why closed ecosystems aren't great. If I had control over my phone and software, I could set my Apple devices to connect to this device anyways via whatever integration, and just not record 30FPS video from my front door, since I don't fucking care about that. I don't use this product, but it sounds like the team at this company does a good job of keeping costs down to the minimum while squeezing everything they can from their product, and now Apple is preventing an integration that would be useful to both Apple and Netatmo users because of stupid-ass reasons (really? you need 30fps from your doorbell even when no one is there yet?).

It's clear that this resistance to being reasonably tested is because the handlers are obviously influencing the dogs. It's freaking irritating. A lot of that is drug war bs. I thought only us law enforcement would be resistant to evaluation.

>Thirdly, this paper emphasizes the strong impact of the COVID pandemic and asserts that understanding the origins of the virus would necessarily aid in preventing future pandemics.

I strongly disagree. If of natural origin, there are a plethora of simple controls that could be implemented. Control doesn't necessarily need to be perfect. Some simple controls could be restrictions or bans on Commercial trade or transport of high-risk animals. If not of natural origin, it obviously indicates that BSL4 controls are inadequate or inconsistently applied. A simple but perhaps costly solution might be to not certify bsl4 Laboratories in dense Urban settings.

Probably a lot of them. The US justice system has a lot of good things, but parallel reconstruction, constantly using the easiest way to get info even if it is illegal. Of course the latest thing is spying on all of us either through apps on our phones or just asking the phone company directly.

Ah, got it. Yup, the Dutch office is the original one, there are a bunch of others around the world.

As far as I can tell though each different country office operates largely independently, almost as a franchise. So it might still be that the South African branch, with a registered local entity and no EU-based customers is more focused on POPI than the GDPR.
> how much they hate their customers

We programmers are among the worst when it comes to this. The natural reaction so many of us have when getting a bug report, is anger and blaming the messenger. (The user)

Perhaps now in 2022, the most successful app purveyors have gotten so good at network effects, while treating their users as the product, the economics/game theory has started to breed contempt for users?
That's the whole point of the adversarial system. The prosecution finds experts that state one opinion, the defense finds experts that say a contrary opinion, the juries pick out whose opinions they want to believe. That's the whole point of expert witnesses - they are the only witnesses in the courtroom who are there for their opinions.

The problem is that one side of this equation has a cottage industry of well-funded experts to pick from, but there isn't a cottage industry of well-funded 'bullshit debunkers' to work for the defense.
> You cannot unequivocally state that there will be no 10 year side effects for something that has not existed for 10 years.

Sure you can. Vaccines aren't computer programs and their side effects can't be programmed to happen after waiting 10 years; instead, they'd happen very rarely at shorter times and then become more likely to happen over time. So you can catch them by very carefully observing a smaller population.

They won't let you call anything but their crappy camera app by intent already, for supposed privacy reasons. As you intimate, what is the point of allowing mobile apps, if they can't access any of the features of the device? Because that is where they are heading, fast. A few crappy google apps that require 24/7 spying to work, and then they "protect you" from everyone else. Sounds like an old school mafia street racket.
> Then why not just outlaw the spyware?

The spyware is outlawed, and so is coercing users into "agreeing" with it.

The problem is that neither restriction is adequately punished to deter the behavior; as of right now, you're better off profiting off spyware because even if you get caught (which is a very big if), the penalty is merely to ask you to stop doing so (and future compliance isn't monitored, so you can get back to your usual shenanigans once the dust settles).

From a GDPR perspective, it doesn't matter whether you don't ask for consent or coerce users into it - both are outlawed, however, because of lax enforcement, an industry of snake oil has developed to sell companies non-compliant solutions (because actual compliance would put them out of business), along with spreading falsehoods and misinformation to promote said business which is blatantly visible on this very thread.

If you truly want to comply with the GDPR, the answer is to rethink your business model and fire a lot of people. But since it's uncomfortable, everyone would rather pretend they comply by paying for an expensive, not-actually-compliant "consent management platform" and otherwise continuing as usual.
