But that consent is invalid according to the law if it was easier to give consent than to say no.
A similar experiment should be conducted on humanity.

It is very interesting, though not surprising I suppose, of how people conceptualize what "adulthood" is composed of. It seems to me that it is typically considered to be ~synonymous with competence and intelligence, but this is fundamentally only a relative perspective, and it also seems to be typically considered to be a ~measurement, when the truth of the matter is that it more often[1] resembles a hallucination.

I've thought for a long time that the ending of Lord of the Flies is a beautiful analogy for the way humanity conducts itself, both globally and domestically:

> If instead of $4M we spent $200k on a coach […] that would save $84/student per year in tuition

I don’t know how California state schools are run, but at least in Oregon it doesn’t work like this. The athletics programs are funded from a completely different pot of money than the academics, specifically so that football spending doesn’t affect tuition. At Oregon State University (where I’m currently a grad student), the football program is profitable and brings in enough ticket sales to pay for itself and all the rest of the athletics programs too.
They are extremely high status among friends and family who do not work in tech or IT, or among recent graduate peers who are struggling to get a white collar career going and stuck in service jobs or other jobs that will never break 100k/yr. For a lot of those folks, just hearing about the types of lunch and travel expenses enjoyed by consultants can imbue the job with high status.
The What, Why, and How of AI-Generated Recipes Using ChatGPT
Let's also look back at the last few years - did we have an obvious problem in the FBI excusing the actions of protests against deadly police actions, or was the actual problem that there was a measurable amount of people in the FBI supporting and/or ignoring the people that actually did try to murder the congress.

It's pretty clear. When there was the large BLM protest in Washington DC there were lots of federal crowd control, also no one tried to break into the capital. When Trump's January 6 riot happened, there were just the much smaller regular capital police forces at the capital, no national guards.
That is not the case in many cities though. Bicycles aren't a good solution for many people. But for many others, they can be. There are obvious examples of both. My city is a great example of a great place to bicycle. I know because I've done it for almost 20 years and I'm not superman.
>glitches are usually "A power cycle fixes it"

Maybe I'm becoming a curmudgeon or maybe it's my bias as a former reliability engineer, but the fact that we've normalized this drives me crazy. Imagine your frustration if your car needed to be "power cycled" on a regular basis just to keep it moving forward, yet we've become accustomed to that in our day-to-day interactions with electronics.

It's the bane of my existence that I have to continuously power cycle a device to do something seemingly simply like change a tv streaming service or scan a document. Interface failures are rampant.
That also requires all data to be in the same DB. Often that’s not practical or possible.
Even the most pessimistic predictions are dwarfed by the missions of people who die from pollution by fossil fuel plants every year. It's less of a headline grabbing shock accident and human psychology is not good at rationally comparing the two. Rare catastrophic events are given disproportionate relevance by our minds.
> UC can hire a college-educated, generally high achieving, generally highly motivated researcher, in California, for $34k/yr

That's not exactly how it works.

The faculty receives a funding, from a public source such as NSF/NIH, or private source, maybe Google/Facebook, or donation. Roughly 50% of that goes to the the university in lieu of overhead, admin, facilities etc. expense (this should sound an alarm bell to anybody reading). Roughly 25% covers tuition expense- again to the university. The remainder is that $34k you are reading about.

So yes, the NIH/NSF will grant more than $100k of the taxpayer money for one student, but the university takes 75% or more of that and peanuts are left for the grad student workers. If someone is in a good place, they might have $1500-2000 take home every month. If a they are in a bad place, it could be lower than $1000 a month. Basically you'd make make less than half of what a fast food worker makes. But without you, grading, research and all other critical higher education activity will stall.

Good luck.
A couple ways. If the need is not real-time and analytical, you feed the data from multiple services into a separate BI database which can do slower and more complex joins across data from multiple data sources. Or if the need is real-time, you build a paginated API with a page limit that can always be processed within the API SLA. Then you build workflows on top of the paginated API to operate on that data.

Generally, unbounded operations have to be broken up at some point. It just depends on how big the data set is.

I have run into similar attitudes. In my case, it's an unfamiliarity with SQL, fear of the database, and a desire to utilize strongly typed ORM's for everything. Implementing these sorts of queries often requires using raw sql which is seen as taboo by such people. They think it's unsafe. Meanwhile we're pulling more records than we need, searching them, then firing off more queries in a for loop.
The "very big CO2" problem is another argument against nukes: you displace much more CO2, and notably sooner, by spending the money building out renewables instead.

Furthermore, the near-zero opex for renewables frees up more money to build out more renewables and eventually, when needed, storage.
Last time I traveled was in Germany in September. Several hotels there offered options for 2-3 nights with no cleaning included, for a discount. They call it "green stay", ironically.
I've met so many developers who seem to be willing to do anything, except use sql. I remember one case where we were dealing with clearly relational data. One of the senior developers was adamant that we use a non-relational database. When pushed as to why, he said it was because it would have better performance. I pointed out that this for a process where data would be sent out and we wouldn't expect to receive it back for 3 days or so. A few milliseconds performance boost was hardly beneficial over 3 days. But he was insistent and was senior, so we did it. Shockingly, it turned out to be the wrong decision. Later we learned that the senior developer didn't like sql.
Now it would be great if the EU could start enforcing GDPR.

Multiple sites of Polish government - main www.gov.pl among others - attempt to run Google's tracking code on visitors' devices without consent.

This is basically illegal in the EU but Poland's GDPR body (Urząd Ochrony Danych Osobowych) dismissed the case opened by me against the Minister of Digital Affairs (Minister Cyfryzacji) who is responsible for those sites operation as baseless.
Oh that makes sense. I was thinking in terms of the prop-driven flight discussed above.
It's not feasible to do a real "Lord of the Flies" experiment on purpose; not even the notoriously sociopathic world of reality TV producers could get away with that.

If you don't, there's a good chance someone will get seriously hurt or killed.

Not surprising that they (or maybe their underwriters) picked the first option.
Try consent-o-matic instead. It allows you to select the level of consent that you want to give web sites. I currently have it set to none, and I haven't seen a consent dialogue for a long time.
I think it's the 18th and 19th century tomes that are tough sledding in high school a lot of the time; many like Moby Dick and much of Dickens are pretty long in addition to the somewhat archaic language.

There are exceptions like The Picture of Dorian Gray although that's very late 19th century--and, of course, Wilde is very accessible.

ADDED: In general, I don't think I read any, but both Fitzgerald and Hemingway seem pretty reasonable for a high school English class. Probably better choices than the like of Catcher in the Rye and A Separate Peace to be honest.
> Turns out that memcpy() didn’t handle data that was not aligned to a 4 byte boundary correctly in the 32 on 64 case. It took one of our sysadmins a very very long time to find it.

The principle is that you should be using the underlying API if something is already solved on a lower level, and not replicate the functionality on a higher level, because it will perform poorly. There was a reason why the lower level API exists in the first place.

This applies to graphics programming very well, its not a question that you wouldn't be making your own pixel rasterizer instead of using DX, OpenGL or Vulkan, for example.

The big recognition is that when doing business apps, SQL database functionality is the underlying API, and you should prefer using that.
There's no menu on the window. It's a dialog box with no way to close it.

[Edit] It's since made sense... but single-clicking on the menu at the top of the screen briefly shows something, but it doesn't stay open, so I didn't think it was associated with the dialog.

It's a horrible UI in terms of discoverability.

You're right, that was poorly worded.

Did you read the text at all? There are plenty of reasons someone might not want to dance at any one moment and it goes through which you can explicitly say within the bounds of etiquette and how to specifically conduct yourself. The text is quite likely from some kind of ballroom dance community, but should work quite well when extrapolated to the outside world.
Wow, what a story!
Making it the "norm" isn't good enough, because developers will always want to cut corners to ship, either based on pressure from management or (in open source projects) just not feeling comfortable with encryption or thinking that it's important enough to implement. Web push libraries are already widely available for major languages to handle implementing encryption, and keeping track of keys isn't any harder than keeping track of device IDs or endpoints would be without encryption—it's just one more row in your database.
There are no other better choices available, unless one is born into wealth. That's why whoever talks about passion, inspiration, etc, is just talking throgh his/her hat. For 95 percent of the world population, some job is better than not having a job.

I've seen both extremes of this.

On one end, you have applications that execute thousands of SQL queries for each page load, for populating a table with some data or something like that, which has bunches of rules for what should be displayed, all implemented as nested method calls (e.g. the service pattern) in your application. It's a performance nightmare when you get more data, or more users.

On the other end, you have an application where your back end acts just as a view for a DB that has all of the logic in it. There will rarely be proper tests for it. There will rarely be any sort of logging or observability solutions for this in place, the discoverability will be pretty bad, debugging will often be really bad, versioning of changes will also be pretty awkward, but at least the performance will typically be okay.

Just look at the JetBrains Survey from 2021: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/devecosystem-2021/databases/#Da...

Do you debug stored procedures?
47% Never
44% Rarely
9% Frequently

Do you have tests in your database?
14% Yes
70% No
15% I don't know

Do you keep your database scripts in a version control system?
54% Yes
37% No
9% I don't know

Do you write comments for the database objects?
49% No
27% Yes, for many types of objects
24% Yes, only for tables

If something that most would consider to be a "good practice" isn't done, then clearly that's a bit of a canary about the state of the technology and the ecosystem around it. Consider that databases are very important for most types of systems, and yet about half of people don't debug their stored procedures, most people don't have tests for them, only about half version their scripts and about half don't bother with comments.

I'm pretty much convinced that it's possible to write bad software regardless of the approach that's used. In my mind, the happy path for succeeding in even sub-optimal circumstances is a bit like this:

- make liberal use of DB views for querying data, if you have a table in your app, it should have a matching DB view, which will also make debugging easier
- make use of in-database processing only when it makes a lot of sense and anything else would be a horrible choice (e.g. ETL or batch processes/pipelines), have log tables and such regardless
- for most other concerns (e.g. typical CRUD), write app logic: most back end languages will have better support for observability and tracing, logging and debugging, as well as scaling for any expensive operations
- still, be wary of the N+1 problem, that might mean that you don't have enough views, or that you're not using JOINs for your queries properly
- also, look into using something like Redis for caching, S3 (or something compatible, like MinIO) for binary blobs and something like RabbitMQ for task queues, just because you can shove everything into the DB doesn't mean that you should, sometimes these specialized solutions will have better support and more standardized libraries, than whatever you can concoct
The thing about #2, is poorly designed in comparison to what?

Chances are high the application layer is written in JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, or Python. We don't even talk about nasty edge cases in those languages because they are uncountable.
Consulting is also great on the job training in how the real world of commerce and business operate, with the bonus that after a year or two you probably have personal knowledge of how a handful of major corporations operate, including which corporate cultures are healthy/positive and which are not.

The etiquette varies by the scene and the country. For example, here in Finland, in the traditional social dances, women stand in line, and men choose who they want to dance with.

Probably. As long as Fossil Fuel Interests are private, publicly traded entities and not nationalized, they will lobby as hard as they can to protect their cash cow....environmental and long-term sustainability concerns are just hurdles to overcome by means of lobbying politicians.
Something to keep in mind is that Capital gains are not as privileged as they appear in most places because people making that claim are usually not comparing earning a dollar as a person vs earning a dollar in a corp and flowing it through to the individual, they are comparing earning a dollar as a person to earning a dividend or selling a business. There is still a net positive if you hold in the corp for a long time and avoid the personal dividend tax for years and there are some capital gains exemptions for selling corps but they are smaller than most claims on the subject espouse. If you want to harmonize you have to be cognizant of this and not switch to overtaxing earning through corps

> iPod Touch 1G running the first iOS version ever released

My memory may be hazy, but I don't believe the iPod Touch was ever released publicly with iPhone OS 1.0. Arrived at my front door a few days before release in store and was running iPhone OS 1.1. Had encryption enabled where as iPhone OS 1.0 shipped to the iPhone 2G (that's cellular 2G) without it enabled for some reason. Whatever the reason that was a big help to the early jailbreaking community.

It's a graduate student union. Both Masters and PhD students are in the same union.

1) They're not qualified.

2) Why would they even want to? It's time consuming and low paying. In fact, it would be even lower paying without a union, so senior undergrads would need to form one. Also keep in mind that PhD students are generally intending to go into teaching in the future, whereas undergrads generally aren't.
I also have ipod touch 1G in my drawer but instead of iOS it's running android (because why not). Or maybe it was dual boot, I can't remember. Android performance was pretty horrible and it was more of a party trick than actual usable system.

> Evidence: How many, many animals live and thrive is deeply immoral by human standards.

The fact that non-human animals live an existence of violent survival does not seem to be prima facie evidence for the nonexistence or incoherence of human morality.

Human beings are rational animals. The term rational here is being used in a specific and technical sense. Non-human animals are subject to the laws of nature in a manner that acts more directly on their passions. Human beings are also subject to the laws of nature, but the forces of nature are mediated by our rationality.

Animal Act: (1) Offspring are hungry (2) brings food to offspring

Human Act: (1) Offspring are hungry (2) Reflects and Decides to provide food (3) brings food to offspring

An act is deemed immoral if it is a misuse of the rational faculty for ends that are not in conformity with the laws of nature.

Human Act (immoral): (1) Offspring are hungry (2) Reflects and Decides not to provide food for selfish reasons (3) offspring go hungry

Animals suffer but they are not moral agents like human beings since there is no mediating rationality that can be misused for ends that are not in conformity with nature's laws. The phrase Nature's Laws is being used broadly to include physical, biological or evolved social laws intertwined with the essential characteristics of the species.

I think a lot of companies comply with cookie banners the way that they do just to annoy users, as a protest against regulation. If they can irritate users as much as possible while complying, they think they can turn users against the regulation itself rather than the way that they comply. I don't know if this applies in this particular case, but I know at least some companies do that so it's worth considering. Other than that, maybe the answer is that they were just trying not to be obvious, or that it was totally different divisions responsible for each?
