Not that I’ve seen. The hacker/tinkerer community never adopted BlackBerry the way they did iOS or Android (or even Palm or Windows Mobile) and the BlackBerry focus on security (putting aside giving foreign governments BBM keys for a minute) meant that unlocking bootloaders on the BBOS and QNX BB10 devices would be more challenging than other phones of that vintage, since a huge selling point to IT admins was that it was safe to put these things on your network.

Obviously someone could jailbreak the bootloaders with enough effort, but I very much doubt many of the components would have drivers in the Linux kernel (the Bold 9900 which was the most powerful BBOS device ever released I think had a Snapdragon SoC and Qualcomm really doesn’t like to open up its drivers) and the effort involved in even trying would almost certainly be more trouble than it was worth.
I mean....I paid the rrp at the time, which was £529. Maybe the card was overpriced for what it was, although I find it unlikely - it was obliterating much more expensive cards from the previous generation.

>why is this not handled through the browser instead of relying on individual web apps to do it.

Websites want you to explicitly reject consent for using your data. There are many untrustworthy places on the internet, so trustworthy places want to explicitly ask because they don't want the user to reject consent to them just because they are being lumped with the other sites.

Now if you had a browser setting that gave consent by default and allowed users to deny consent that is something that would reduce the need of sites constantly asking you for consent. But any attempt to automatically reject consent is just going to result in sites asking for consent via another channel. See what happened to the do not track header when you try and lump all sites together.
> There is no reason to pay the money I am paying here if I can get better food, climate and general quality of life for the same (or even less!) money elsewhere in Europe

Sure. And you should probably do that. But then a lot of other people are of the opinion that they can ignore food and weather and come to Britain. Net migration numbers in recent decades have not gone in favour of your line of thinking?

UK high street is being attacked from multiple sides, from apparent lack of labour satisfied/pressured into low wages, to having their access being cut by the latest LTN measures around the country.

Current/incoming gov't is drunk on high taxation and more and more regulation of every facet of your life and business. But I'm still unsure my business/work would fare better in any other european country (forget Brexit, it doesn't have much to do with any of this). The malaise is everywhere.

> Indeed DataFrames.jl isn't and won't be the fastest way to do many things

Agreed, and the DF.jl developers are aware and very open about this fact - the core design trades off flexibility and user friendliness over speed (while of course trying to be as performant as possible within those constraints).

One thing that hasn't been mentioned so far is InMemoryDatasets.jl, which as far as I know is the closest to polars in Julia-land in that it chooses a different point on the flexibility-performance curve more towards the performance end. It's not very widely used as far as I can tell but could be interesting for users who need more performance than DF.jl can deliver - some benchmarks from early versions suggested performance is on par with polars: https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-a-new-lightning-fast-p...
Does someone know why it is legal that in some countries websites are allowed to offer layers that offer a paid version and a tracking enabled version (very popular among newspapers)?

As far as I understand the GDPR, there should be no downside to rejecting the tracking technologies. And Websites relying on advertising, could do so with unpersonalized ads (granted with very different metrics).

Nevertheless, to me it feels, like these paid vs tracked offers are not what the authors of the GDPR intended.
Free market implies that a company can create any service and product they want. It's up the customer to decide if they want to pay for it or not.

This means a company like Apple does not have to provide access to its proprietary M2 SoC to anyone who asks. That makes no business sense. What's the point of investing billions to design and mass manufacture SoCs if "free market" says you must give it away?
Oh no. But that’s how all desktop programs without telemetry work.

It's the classic corporate dark pattern to undermine regulations.

Choose the most disruptive, asinine way to comply with them. Then argue that the regulation is at fault, and lobby to have it removed.

For example, there's been plans recently in Norway to tax the salmon farming industry more heavily. The response from the industry has been to pretend that this will completely decimate the industry(we'll have to fire tons of folks to protect our massive profit margins hurr durr), which the numbers don't seem to bear that out. But now they've managed to convince the workers and they've been protesting to "protect their jobs" when they're actually just being used as pawns to protect a billionaire from taxes.

That's why we have regulation, where there is a mandatory 2 year warranty on electronic devices in EU. Also cars need to have dozens of systems that are not really needed to drive the car itself, but help with safety (eg, ABS brakes, etc.)

Just add a few lines to the regulations about schematics, individual spare parts to component levels, no blocking sales by manufacturers, and we're a step closer to a greener world.

The USB-C regulation should also include user-replacable batteries (or at least something that doesn't need additional parts (eg. glue) to reassemble, since the battery is guaranteed to fail with time, even if the rest of the phone survives.

The NFT auction houses could take a cut that then gets distributed to all sellers or something like that. There has to be a loss in the transaction else the transaction means jack shit

I thought the term "wire fraud" meant "wire" in the sense of "telegraph". That is, it's fraud relying on telecommunications, which could include landline telephone, satellite, microwave, radio or internet. Have I got that wrong?
I'm sorry, but have you tried making and hosting a website? Product Analytics is a very popular category for a reason.
Here in the US, the courts piece by piece courts took apart Section 271 of Telecommunications Act of 1996 that guarantees unbundled network elements (UNE)/local loop unbundling (LLU).

By 2003, the FCC basically gave up. They ignored Congress & said, yeah, fine, broadband is exempt, because it's kind of expensive. Their Trienniel review dismantled UNE/LLU. https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-03-36A1.pdf

So now America has nearly no competitive access to broadband.

We haven't been growing exponentially for very long. Before agriculture was invented there wasn't much growth at all. We were limited by how much hunter-gatherers could hunt and gather. Growth happened when people expanded to some new territory, and that was limited by poor transportation options.

When agriculture was invented around 12000 years ago growth picked up, with the population doubling around every 1000 years. That lasted until around 5000 years ago, when the population was around 100 million. There wasn't much grown for the next couple thousand years.

Around 3000 years ago growth picked up and the population tripled by 2000 years ago. It slowed again until around the industrial revolution and then picked up quite a bit. The world population growth rate went from around 0.1% per year before the industrial revolution to around 0.6%.

The 20th century brought many developments that allowed for even more growth. That allowed the growth rate to hit around 2.24% in 1964. It's been declining since then, dropping to a little below 1% a couple years ago.

It's been pretty much the same pattern since we became Homo sapiens. When there is an increase in available resources or we get new technology that lets us better utilize resources we can have a relatively short period of exponential growth until we reach the limits of those resources and then growth slows or stops.

With the industrial revolution and then the developments in the 20th century we were able to have about a century of sustained high growth, but we're reaching the end of that expansion and the growth rate is declining.

We'll almost surely have more breakthroughs that allow for growth increases, but some people want to plan based on the assumption that we'll have such breakthroughs often enough that we can count on high growth indefinitely.

The point of the galaxy-straining limit calculation is that the past pattern of periods of exponential growth being followed by declining growth is something inherent in exponential growth. It's not something that can be escaped by finding new places to settle or more efficient ways to use existing resources. Thus, we should be planning on the recent period of exponential growth ending rather than becoming depending on exponential growth continuing indefinitely.
It does. They just don’t sell hardware. They sold most of the patents but still retain some and they’ve sued over the keyboard before (Google BlackBerry vs Typo keyboard) so it isn’t a dumb question. That said, if someone else is selling an OEM-like part, I doubt this is high volume enough for the people left at BlackBerry to care.
> it also hurts

How is simple analytics or A/B testing that's NOT internet-wide tracking (that is, only for the website you're on) or sold (which would be outright illegal without explicit consent) hurting you? Genuine question, because I don't see it. Internet-wide tracking across many sites: sure. But that's a very different thing – it's the difference between "I'm home Darling, I saw Sander at the mall today" vs. "Hello everyone, here is everything Sander did this week".

Since the article seems to be targeted at developers who use LLMs to e.g. generate Embeddings for semantic search, the title is about as accurate as saying a software engineer is a “keyboard developer” because they use a keyboard.

My main problem is cross website tracking. I don't really have a problem with a website keeping track of all my visits to that particular website.

I think it works similar in real life as well. You don't mind if a store clerk recognises you coming back to a shop. But you would be kind of creeped out if he also knew where and when you last visited your dentist.
You need to reread the thread. There are some things that are significantly better for common people today. So much better that the richest people would have given up significant chunks of their fortunes for them in the 70s.

>I see where you're coming from, but it might be worth considering that it being your property doesn't imply that you can repair it. I bought a CPU, I own it, it's my property, and if it somehow broke, I am completely unable to repair it.

And frankly - CPU is useless by itself.

The model of regulation-compliance is this. It's not really about the specifics. Consent, privacy, kyc... Those may be initial motives for regulation, but by the time these exist in the world, they are a set of standard, rigid "compliance" protocols.

From formulation stage, it allows two parallel realities. One in which "consent" or whatnot have an intuitive meaning. Politicians and activists live here. One in which "consent" is a specification for a compliant "3rd party solution." Businesses live here.

Once functional, the bank, website or other complying business can claim the rules were made up by the regulator, and the regulator can either claim to be successful or blame businesses for problems. Being unremarkable, by copying or using 3rd party comliance plugins is more important than respecting the regulation's intent.

By the time consumers are affected, "consent" has a technical specification. It no longer has much actual meaning.

Think of the hoops, paperwork, informed consent signatures and such that you deal with at a bank. All those things had some regulatory logic behind them initially. Employees at the bank think this is government-required paperwork. What it is is compliance.
> it isn't fun to tell people "no".

It gets even less fun when they won't take no for an answer and want to argue with you about it: it sucks up time and energy you may not want, or even have, to give. It becomes unnecessary noise and distraction, which is a huge problem if your life is already busy.
The complaint is that these delimiters are really only meaningful for Western Europe - the delimiting events both happen in Italy.

> make it expensive to do self-repair (via parts cost) and cheaper to offer repairs

If the parts can only be sourced from Apple and are expensive, third party repairs are expensive too. My perfectly useable 2017 iPad Pro got a screen broken and the third party repair service quote was equivalent to a new 2023 iPad Air (around 400€!)

> There's just not enough of a market for third-party repair shops, when they're competing with Apple offering the same service.

There is plenty of a market for repair services. Lots of people with skills and lots of customers with broken devices. What there isn't is access to parts necessary to do the repairs. When Apple is the only source, they add the full markup they charge to do the repair themselves to the price of the part itself, which prevents anyone else from offering a lower markup.

The answer to this is to have competing suppliers of the parts, but that doesn't happen when the system is purposely designed to be non-modular so an indivisible part can only be produced by a huge conglomerate and the parts that can be replaced are DRM locked to prevent even that level of competition.

> ... its dots be cheese ... its vowels mint ...

If like me you're wondering about "dots" and "vowels", my best guess is that it's an allusion to arabic script. Some letters have dots above or below them, and short vowels are sometimes represented by a slash or loop above or below the preceding consonant.

So the recipe is using a metaphor to effectively say "sprinkle with cheese".

See e.g. https://arabic.fi/lessons/vowels

The dinar/dirham for egg yolk/white is interesting as well. I think it's another metaphor rather than a direct translation. Those word are both used in the currencies of various countries around the Mediterranean - dinar (yolk) was originally a gold coin whereas dirham (white) was silver.
