That "disclose customer data to a third party" violates article 44 of the GDPR if there's no matching exemption to allow it. One possible exemption would be if the recipient is also bound by the GDPR. But obviously, the US government is not bound by GDPR. So anything that would allow the US CLOUD act to access a EU customer's data is a GDPR violation.
Tracking and data based companies crying about lost revenue is one of the big reasons I'm fully in the Apple ecosystem.
The discussion is about control. No one is saying devices should be less secure.

If you ask people "should you be able to run any program you want on your devices?" I doubt people would answer "yes, on computers, but on phones I should only be able to run what Tim Apple allows me to".

> It is not the job of the media to accuse people of having committed crimes, and it is dangerous for most people to do so. Defamation is a real thing. Publicly accuse someone of a crime they did not commit, and they have a legitimate civil cause of action against you.

It's indeed dangerous for "most people" to do so. However, in many jurisdictions, the media gets more protection against defamation claims than the average person because of their public duty to report alleged criminal behavior.

The press doesn't get to receive special treatment in defamation law and then claim they're not going to report facts because they fear legal consequences.
It sounds like you may be confusing "mineral" and "chemical element". Minerals are regular arrangements of compounds of elements. It is enormously easier to get progressively heavier (or extreme in any other sense) synthetic minerals than to synthesize new elements. Synthesizing new minerals require arranging existing common elements in new ways; synthesizing new elements requires extreme high-energy physics.

The implication of the quote is that anything "ignited by curiosity" is worthwhile. This is all fine and good, as noble ambitions go, but it does not answer the key questions for academia: (1) Which papers to accept for publication?, and (2) Which projects to provide with funding?. The context of course is that there is only limited room for papers in publication venue (journal and/or conference) and limited funding for science.
Happened to me recently, it was actually a great vacation. I was out of work for a couple of months, spent most of my time doing leisure activities, turned down a number of offers, and ended up with about a 20% increase in compensation. I could have done it stressfully if I’d wanted to, but why? I would have had less fun, and almost certainly arrived at a worse outcome…

It's been done before with the Hollywood Anti-trust case of 1948 [0]. Studios were neither colluding nor holding a monopoly. But it was an oligopoly building walled gardens by not allowing theaters to carry their movies without a lot of restrictions.

Also anti-trust doesn't require a literal monopoly, just a company "with significant and durable market power" [1]. I think Apple fits into that definition easily.

One thing that has been an absolute deal breaker for me is adding variants for components.

Say I have a button component with different variants, these variants change styles across multiple elements in the component.

Using scss and BEM this is incredibly simple, add a parent class and I can modify nested elements easily. But using tailwind I have to make an mess of things to get this working or recreate the component.

I’d love to hear how anyone solves this issue.

My adult son is the most happy person I know but often makes angry faces. He also has night terrors. Nightmares he doesn't remember.

In ny gut I think there is a relationship between his happy nature and not knowing how to be angry. It's kind of like he doesn't have a middle ground of being angry.It's his happy face 90% of the time, then super angry face when annoyed. An angry face which is not really representative of who he is.
The biggest hurting in my view is them still sharing subscription revenue of all people to the biggest artists.

I never listen to the taylorswifts and other really big names. But when I used to pay for premium most of my monies went there anyway.

I wish so much that my subscription fee would have gone pro-rata to the actual artists who I streamed. Alas out of the lets say 10 bucks only cents were left for the artists who I really liked-listened.

I guess this is what Heroku was pushing for [1] when client tokens were leaked. They wanted GitHub to adopt RFC 8075 [2], that combines mutual TLS auth with the tokens, so that the tokens can only be used by authorized clients, not just anyone that had possession of the tokens.

My hard rule is I refuse to buy any “Smart Home” product that is IP addressable, or can directly connect to a host outside my own network. Any new device gets tossed into a super restricted VLAN, and monitored. If it tries to reach the outside world on its own, it gets returned and refunded.

So this limits me mostly to things like outlets, switches, alarms/alerts and temperature and air quality sensors. It means I need to use an app that communicates only through networking technology like Bluetooth or Thread or a secured API. So everything comes through something like HomeKit and/or Thread.

Cameras are different. They get VLANd, and they only send video to my own storage which is accessible by my own applications. That footage gets backed up offsite through normal means. Cameras don’t talk to anything outside my network because they don’t need to.

But… that still accomplishes everything I need, so that’s fine. I use open source tools to aggregate, dashboard and handle the integration between devices myself. After initial setup, it’s been set and forget.

Going to a movie alone sucks. It also sucks when going with someone, just not as much.

The better choice is to watch the movie at home.

At the margin, it's very hard to tell the difference between advertisements and other media. Today I listened to an enjoyable podcast with 5 speakers, 2 of whom are employed by the same company. During the episode, they discussed a product that those 2 worked on. Was this an advertisement?

I think any ban like that would have a "I know it when I see it" standard, which isn't wonderful.
Maybe online platforms should just stick to how social interactions work in meatspace:

You choose where and with whom you want to converse.

If you're indoors, you converse with your family/coworkers. If you're outdoors, you converse with friends or service providers + some public noise.

Privately, people can talk about whatever they want. If someone starts bothering someone, the "host" of the place can ask them to leave, kick them out, or call the police.

IRC almost figured it out like 900 years ago, but no then the centralized Hutts decided they want to control everything and "mOnEtIzE" all our interactions so now we have proprietary BS each trying to reinvent the damn wheel in its own broken half-baked way.

Last year I have used Python without using any imports and, whenever I felt like it, tried to golf it as much as I could. Turned out easier than I expected, even without any libraries Python is pretty powerful for this kind of tasks: https://gitlab.com/dos1/AoC21

There were only like two or three days that felt frustrating, but mostly because of the problem being poorly specified.

> Ask them which open-source libraries their SaaS uses. Ask them to show you the audits they've performed on THEIR supply chain this year. You won't get any answers.

Well, even with private cloud and on-prem these are pretty relevant questions...

I Worked with a government organization where I was part of the team on-boarding a new on-prem system. It was purchased through a tender, where on-prem was a requirement. The product was SaaS by default, but they offered an on-prem version. We pretty much got a copy of the stack of containers and docker-compose file that they used to run their SaaS offering.

While running the application, I was missing a lot of context, since logging was minimal, so I asked the company how to connect a log store to get an overview of all the sub-systems. There was no option for this (then how did they monitor their SaaS?). So I used docker to get command line in the containers and see if I can find some logs there to then get into a log store. In one of them, I noticed an error because something in the container was trying to phone home with telemetry, to a server that wasn't owned by our supplier. 'Luckily', our on-prem box didn't have an internet connection, because of the sensitivity of our data.

This was when I realized that our supplier didn't roll their own containers, but just used off the shelf stuff they didn't even audit. So who knows what their SaaS offering was leaking from these containers? I mentioned this to both internal IT architects and the supplier and nobody really seemed to care.

This is a supplier that was named 'Leader' by Forrester and got a $30M funding round last year.

The GDPR never mentions "personally identifiable data" as that is a US term. In the GDPR, it only says "personal data" which is the exact same thing according to the GDPR.
2019 was excellent. Each day, the puzzle would have you adding new features (new instructions, addressing modes, input/output handling) to the emulator. The early days were fairly simple, but things got progressively more complicated. On one day the puzzle input was code that played a game of Breakout. Your task was to implement an emulated joystick that would play perfectly. The solution was the final score. On another day the puzzle required several virtual machines running in parallel feeding the output of one into the input of the next to get the final answer.

Reddit r/adventofcode is also fun. People post not only solutions in various languages, but visualizations of solutions (e.g., an animation of that game of Breakout). Sometimes people post fun things, like a solution to a puzzle in Apple II BASIC and a video of it running on an actual Apple II.
Is this actually part of the standard? AFAIK TLS allows/demands to authenticate one or both sides via certificates, and defines a mechanism to delegate trust via certificate chains. It does not, AFAIK, define how trust is established, and my guess is that the standard authors realized that this is an infinitely complex topic that should not be intermixed with the technical and cryptographic side of the problem.

It just turns out that delegating trust to root CAs, CAs, and browser/OS vendors (the latter via built-in certificate lists) makes it easy for the end user.
It's a common human experience: Normalization of deviance. [0]

You take a (what you think is) calculated risk, nothing bad happens immediately and it worked out - which reinforces the belief that your risk estimate was correct and not just pure luck.

Then you take the same sort of risk all the time and it becomes your new normal - you take another risk (which is now a larger step, since the previous risk-taking is just business as usual) and so on until the probability of failure is 1.

Obviously this can easily happen to people who have no advisor they respect more than their own opinion.

There are many regulations already in place to protect consumer rights. The idea that you can influence companies by not buying is an illusion. The only real solution to anti-competitive practices is legislation.

It used to be that when you bought a computer you could run any program you wanted. No one thought this needed to be enshrined in law until Apple thought to restrict what you can do with your own devices.

We do need legislation to ban devices which don't allow running general programs.

I worked through a popular Introductory Category theory text. Did all the problems and made sure I understood everything in there really. It became clear by the end why some mathematicians like category theory. It lifts some results in certain areas to a higher level of generality.

I'm using Elixir and a Liveview notebook this year to go through it. Using Liveview notebooks is so nice, as you can even add and run `ExUnit` tests within one. So, it's just a single document in which to work with syntax highlighting, formatting, modules, tests, etc.

I may also do it in F# and .NET Interactive notebooks using the Polyglot Notebooks Visual Studio Code extension, but I suspect the solutions will look very similar.
> Only if you ignore the crime of open drug use, and that it kills thousands per year.

Thousands of users are killing themselves with the drugs. This is a self-harm issue, not a violent crime issue. It's only crime because we're criminalized possession, and that hasn't curbed use. It's still illegal to possess the drugs these folks are using, and they have roughly the same level of access to these illegal drugs inside of prison.

Prison simply isn't the answer to solving drug use. Drug use is also highly correlated with poverty. Some of the addicts on the street became homeless because of their addiction, but some of the addicts on the streets became addicts after becoming homeless.

The biggest driver of the heroin epidemic was perdue. The people responsible got off without punishment. You're proposing punishing their victims.

> The only thing you can trust from these cities is that they're dishonest about their stats. If police don't answer a call did a crime really happen?

This is a conspiracy theory.

> And free school leads to the nonsense we have now with subsidized loans where a critical-studies degree costs $250k.

No, you get that nonsense when the government subsidized a loan program.

> In every other country it's hidden in taxes to some degree, usually a lot, if it's available at all.

This argument isn't supported by the data. The data shows that total spending on healthcare in the US is considerably higher.

In the US the cost is also hidden by your employer, who's paying thousands of dollars a month for your insurance, which you also need to pay for, where you also need to cover a deductible, co-pays, out-of-network costs, ambulance costs, etc.

These things are all covered directly by your taxes in other countries. I'm currently living in Japan, and the cost of healthcare here is considerably cheaper, and my overall tax rate isn't much higher than it was when I was living in the US.

> Our poorest are richer than the median in many countries.

We're the richest country in the world. We need to compare ourselves to similar countries, not to third world countries. Folks in impoverished areas in the US can live in third-world conditions. This is extremely out of the norm when compared against our peers.

> Crime on the other hand is more of a social thing than a poverty thing.

Again, the data doesn't support this. There's a very strong correlation between poverty and crime.

> You know what's a good social program? Building a place to put druggies before thousands of them die on the street in the middle of a city.

Yeah, this is the point of safe-use sites, which have counselors to perform outreach, doctors to ensure they don't die, and facilities to ensure they have somewhere to throw away needles and use the bathroom. They're extremely effective at combating overdose deaths and at reducing needles on the street.

As mentioned before, it's just as easy to get these drugs in prison as it is to get them on the street, so unless you're proposing detox and treatment centers, I don't see what your good social program suggestion is.
Flash also took time to load. The sites used loaders with progress bars for larger flash apps as well.
That's all good in theory. In practice, it's just a massive time sink for citizens. I know because I'm going through some of it right now for regularizig an inheritance and I've wasted so much time, but having this data separate has brought nothing to my privacy. In fact, given the legacy systems, I'd argue I have less privacy because there are fewer (or no) controls.

On the other hand, when these connected systems are in place it's not like employees can just tap your name and get the data, there is some Auth process with your eID/certificate.

It all boils down to people's trust in the government. In Scandinavian countries that trust is high. In Southern European countries it's very low (and much lower in the US).
Can you please share which example is broken? I'd be happy to take a look. We share the project/manifest that was used with the build (https://diffeq.sciml.ai/stable/#Reproducibility), so you can see the exact versions of all packages and dependencies. The docs aren't perfect and there's many things we plan to improve within the next month (I'd be happy to detail some of what is planned), but I'd be surprised if the >10k unique monthly viewers all didn't notice that every example is broken without any issues reported (as you claim). It seems every typo seems to get an issue opened these days, but the examples haven't had a report in at least months.
Yeah, usually part 2 is. Bear in mind that tonight's puzzle is a warmup, it's day 1 after all!

I do find there's usually one or two spots that you can eek by with threads and throwing compute power at the problem. But those are rare — usually you have to actually solve it.
Thanks for the insights, really appreciate them! I work at Qdrant, and if there is any way to ease the start with using it, then we're eager to think about it. However, it's way easier to do it with a tool like Stripe, which essentially simplifies one thing. Qdrant should be rather compared to databases like Postgres or MongoDB, but designed to support quick vector search. There is plenty of possibilities of how to use it, including semantic search, image search, anomaly detection, etc. so we don't want to bring a single topic as if it was the main use case. That's why we rather focus on a variety of tutorials and demos, covering different domains.

However, we can surely think of an example based on your data, let's talk! :)
For the easier tasks, my "fun" is doing it as quickly as possible first ;) Then I rewrite it with a goal in mind, for instance entirely functional with no mutations, as a single expression or whatever.
It isn't superior because it isn't easy to use. It's only superior on the "secure" side. It would be nice if that concept was re-implemented in an actually superior product, starting with "will the average user be able to use it in their daily communication?"

Pretty much. I hold the record for our coding question in my company - 3 minutes and 54 seconds. Granted, I'm one of the two people that put the question together, but still.

We've had candidates with "20 years of experience" completely unable to do what amounts to "call a web service, deserialize some json, write a couple for loops and if statements, and post back some json to a web service" in over an hour, or in a take home scenario.

It will never cease to amaze me that there are people employed in this field that just. can. not. program.
But it isn't the vast majority as far as I know. Most people I know have their crypto on Coinbase or Kraken or Bitstamp, or they've invested in a hardware wallet.

I don't know how succesful FTX's marketing was, did they really convince the average American to buy their crypto there? I hadn't even heard of FTX until they named a stadium.

Not everyone gets crypto wrong, just the people who got duped. Maybe I'm underestimating how many those are, I'm not an American and never met anyone who had assets at FTX.
