Maybe for certain models. Personally I've never had a shelf break on any fridge I've used, which makes it sound like that's a user error to me.

On the compressors, there was a vast swath of Samsung and LG fridges that had known defects on compressors causing them to fail. Right now, the ice machines are probably most problematic. If you own a Samsung fridge with an ice maker you know what I mean.
They're not even close to comparable. Worrying about privacy and then focusing on Big Tech is like trying to swat away a mosquito while you're being devoured alive by three bears.

Ironically, it's government that should be protecting the privacy of its citizens against the pervasive surveillance big tech has essentially normalised and monetised.

And so monetised has it become that any attempt by government to reign in the pervasive surveillance, it could potentially have a noticeable effect on the employment rate as all those "smartest people on the planet working very hard on getting better click rates" in the big tech surveillance industry are legislatively made redundant. Bad politics.

This would also dry up a fair portion of the ... lobbyist funding ... governments receive.

Plus governments handily use these private enterprises profiting from pervasive surveillance to take the pulse of the citizenry for the purposes of staying in power - the very reason they're in government in the first place.

So, yeah, Government, as they are, are a significant part of the problem from a number of angles.
For what it's worth I think this is an excellent choice. Back in 2019 I was deciding whether I wanted to pursue Zig full-time and one of the upsides that I determined was that once you reach critical mass writing all of your code for tools and things in Zig you end up with things that are really exactly what you need and with a very high baseline for speed, flexibility, and so on.

Right now I'm considering the same thing but with Odin and for many of the same reasons that I had for Zig; it's an excellent language to write foundational code in and once you do, you end up being able to build significantly more understandable, reliable, stable and consistent things.

This, but on a company level, is a real multiplier. Once you adopt a couple of Python scripts and that's OK, you give up the possibility of wielding this sharp spear.

Edit:

I think "How I program C" by Eskil Steenberg is an interesting window into what you can get if you laser focus on a language and environment and allow yourself to build up a mountain of code that you dogfood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=443UNeGrFoM

At some point I will likely soft-retire and at that point it's exceedingly unlikely that I'll bother with using other people's libraries except a few key ones that I think are decent, and at that point there really is no reason I'd sit down and write these fundamentals in anything but a lower-level language. Odin, Zig or something like it would pretty much be the only thing on the table.
This feature once saved me from what would have otherwise been a very nasty crash, many years ago.

I was driving too fast in a borrowed car over a small hill and hadn't realized that traffic had stopped just out of my sight until too late. I heard a beep and saw flashing on my dash and I started braking but a moment later the emergency braking system kicked in, braking much harder than I would have been able to. The car stopped, hard, a foot or two short of the pickup truck in front of me.

As the brakes kicked in, my seatbelt tensioned and pulled me into my seat, which was surprising because, although I had a vague idea of emergency braking, I didn't know the seatbelts would do that. And although I may be mis-remembering since this was so long ago, it feels like the passenger seat next to me started moving (I'm not sure why) – I should look that up.

Made me infinitely grateful for the engineering that went into this system. I was quite young and insufficiently cautious, and it was an eye-opening experience.
Would you care to elaborate on what went wrong? The other comments here make ‘automatic emergency braking’ sound like a really good idea, and it’s hard for me to imagine that this particular feature would be so problematic.

If you’re talking about other automatic steering features, that’s very different, and your comment makes more sense to me.

Ironically enough, I've picked up some adapters so I can use regular watch bands with my Apple Watch. There are just more options (that I like) using regular watch bands, and most decent (i.e. >= $20) watch bands now use quick release spring bars, making them stupidly simple to change (and not lose said bars).
Really appreciated this article - it's high time the Dutch government websites took steps like these towards strengthening their security! Still, they could definitely do with a bit more user-friendly explanations, so everyone can understand the importance of initiatives like security.txt.

The algorithm learns by looking at contextual words around a given word. If a word is infrequent, there isn't enough context to span the space of possible contexts for the word, making it difficult for the algorithm to get a good idea about what the word means.

It is also worth discussing the difference between the training corpus (the data that the word vectors are found from) and the inference corpus (the data that the word vectors are used on). If a word is uncommon in the inference corpus, but is common enough to be trained on the training corpus, then a vector is still generated and useful for the inference task.
AI could replace bad managers, of which there are too many, but not good ones. Can an AI provide a sense of connection to higher levels or other parts of the company? Not even possible. Can an AI motivate? Can it resolve conflict? Doubtful at best. I certainly wouldn't trust one with any of the more therapy-adjacent things that a good manager does, and that's a big part of the job if they're doing it right.

The problem with so much management - the reason the rest of us hate it - is that it's already too formulaic, too inhumane and empathy-free, too much of people as machines rather than as people. Replacing that with actual machines is not the solution. It's just more cost-cutting at the expense of workers.

(Yes, I realize OP was satire. The points on both sides still stand.)
I think it’s more the big O of failing that scares people these days.

The out is a divorce. And it’s unfortunately really common (isn’t it like 50%?). Not sure why but that’s just how it is.

So I think people worry about the legal and opportunity cost of a failed marriage.

I’ve never seen people who weren’t somewhat psychopathic who seemed fine after a divorce. Like really fine. There’s people like this one eng director guy who married four times, has like 9 kids, and now has a girlfriend. He’s a player, and that’s how he rolls. Most people however seem broken emotionally after their divorce and seem to be a shell of their former selves. Most that I know who remarried divorced again. There are a few normal happy folks but I don’t personally know any besides what I read on internet.
Those examples you gave inherently must track you in order to function. I'm talking about accessory cases, e.g. "Facebook pixel." That case is problematic, but also easy to avoid - don't go to sites that for example use Facebook comments.

Fundamentally though, even if you are tracked by Facebook you being banned on Facebook isn't going to stop you from living your life. If that is the case then that is indeed problematic.

We will have to agree to disagree. I care about surveillance only to the extent that if the person doing has the ability to stop my participation in society. To that extent Meta cannot do much damage (to me at least).

Having watched my wife interact with the American medical system over the last 10 years for very similar symptoms, I have a much lower opinion of the amount of attention and care the average doctor is able to provide. There have been a few standout exceptions (her psychiatrist in particular) but overall there is little collaboration between the many specialists, and after billing our insurance for a battery of tests, there often little to no follow up.
The article goes to great lengths to describe the difficulties in manufacturing and assembling the mechanism in the band itself but then also mentions that there a large ecosystem of third-party bands available.

When you're a global company that has to balance between cozying up with other countries to keep relations and catering to advertisers - it's not surprising to see them take an overabundance of caution and outright remove videos like that.

It's a shame that they feel they need to do that for the ultimate goal of more profit - but I guess that's the way these silicon valley companies operate.

Remove all violence, remove all controversial content, remove anything that might make someone think about what's going on in the world around them - instead, why don't you look at these advertisements!

Social media become a mistake when society let corporations own it and control it.

There should be a way for users to view videos that have been taken down that violate terms of service after the fact - minus anything that's by law illegal (CSAM, etc).
"US Bank deposits down $427B in Q1 2023" would make the most sense.

I also read "lost" as "lost track of", as in "we received these deposits but then don't know where they went".
> Yes, I would argue that controlling information access to property should not be considered a fundamental right - in that it's practically un-enforceable for privacy purposes already;

So you don't think it should be a fundamental right because we lost the right before we realized how important it was?

That's a strange argument.

> I do think there should be an expectation that you can walk around your property without fear of bumping into some stranger though.

Why?

If I walk onto your property and stare in your windows, if "physical security" is important but "privacy" isn't, why should you be allowed to stop me? I'm not threatening you. I'm just watching you. Sounds fine to me.

Or perhaps you'd be fine if I just did it from the public sidewalk with a telephoto lens aimed at your bedroom?

What if I then took a bunch of naked photos of you and your partner and then posted them online? Would you be okay with that? If not, why not, if privacy is not a fundamental right?
My understanding is the exact opposite.

Total deposits is the money individuals placed in banks, (e.g. cash in a checking account). If a bank gives you a mortgage, it does create money due to the fractional reserve, but it doesnt change the underlying deposits (The deposits are the reserve)

The titular loss is simply people moving cash savings to money markets.
> They will spend 40 hours/week for months to save $5/mo. There's basically no logic apart from that developers have a poor concept of time and money and are spending averse (again, cheap.)

To slightly counter. I am a developer with a high-ish (average for the industry, i suppose) income. I love paying for my tools. HOWEVER, i expect you'd call me cheap.

Why? Well because i am very averse to subscriptions, and i think this is primarily due to being a developer and being around this culture. This culture which is flooded with startups all wanting X$ per seat, user, etc. I've seen these things scale excessively on loop. It's not 1 $5 sub. It's the 20 tools all vying for subscriptions, tiers of subscriptions, etc.

I happily pay for things i can buy that improve my DX or productivity. However subs have to be exceptionally good to justify because they're in competition, in my head, with every other sub i already manage. Even if it doesn't make sense to have X and Y products "compete" because they're not even remotely related - they are in my head. They're in the list of subscriptions which i obsessively prune because this industry has left me feeling like i need to.

I love "subs" like JetBrains though.

Just want to point out that with population growth, your stats show that over the past 20 years married couples per thousand population has gone from 202/1000 in 2001 to 185/1000 in 2022 which is a 10% decline.

As someone on a sibling thread noted, if you limit the personal liability to the CEO, then that creates a strong incentive to make the CEO position into "highly-paid fall guy" while the other people responsible—quite probably even the people primarily responsible—laugh all the way to the bank.

At a minimum, liability must be possible for the entire C-suite and the board.

Depending on the nature and degree of the atrocities being committed, I can see a pretty strong argument for liability for anyone involved in any way who's being paid more than, say, national median salary + 50%—that is, anyone for whom "I was just following orders" doesn't have with it the background of "and if I disobeyed, I would risk destitution for myself and my family." The horrible effects of some of these decisions, and the number of people who have to suffer them, mean I have no compunction about comparing acts like these to war crimes, and we don't allow "I was just following orders" as a defense to those, either.
It might be a pedantic point but when you buy a perpetual license you don’t “own” the product - you “own” a license to use the product, on the terms in the license.
Its an Apple proprietary system and as such there will be a large licensing cost, including most likely a per unit payment designed to let the 3rd party make the most paper thin of margins.
Remember that the population of humans a million years ago used to be ~20,000. It is now 7 billion.

Some diseases have big and obvious effects, while others are undetectable/unknown. Assume that diseases mutate a fixed amount per human they infect.

All 7 billion of those people are one 'pool' for disease spread - as evidenced by covid.

That means that the rate your immune system 'sees' entirely novel diseases - not only novel to you, but also novel to all your ancestors - is 350,000x higher than it used to be. The true figure is probably lower, because many diseases infect multiple species. But still, there is a strong argument that we are asking our immune system to do something far outside what it has evolved to handle.
Don't read into this question more than necessary: are you a "generic" American (non-immigrant, born and raised, family has been here for more than 3 generations, no strong ethnic ties) or primarily surrounded by "generic" Americans?

I've found most of my long-term, "deep" relationships in the U.S. to be with immigrants/foreigners. With the "generic" Americans, I can get to the point of a friendly and jolly relationship -- but it never feels like "strong bonds" are part of their value system.

For example, go to Latin America if you want a stark contrast to this. People are part of the value system.
I think it is still semantics, and particularly semantics invented by the regime itself, which had a whole vocabulary for camps. But by no means am I trying to downplay the atrocities that happened in the extermination camps, including Auschwitz-Birkenau where I've also been. The examples were given to you to refute your mission about Germans not knowing what was happening; political opponents, Jews, criminals, minorities, and others were interred already in the 1930s.
matklad, of rust-analyzer fame among many other things, wrote up their thoughts on Zig: https://matklad.github.io/2023/03/26/zig-and-rust.html

I've seen some put it as "zig is good when `unsafe` heavy code".

Personally, even when writing life-or-death software, allocation errors were too much of a pain to deal with and much prefer Rust's approach for 99% of software. The question is if another language like zig provides enough value to justify existing for that 1% of use cases (all numbers made up :) ).

No. They don't. What gave you that idea?

Honestly, that you think it's that easy suggests to me you don't understand the topic well enough to have an informed opinion.

That's not a slight! That's actually a huge problem with the debate, as few people truly understand the issues well enough to have a fully informed opinion on the topic.
I think that real potential of SBOMs can only be realized if they are reasonably complete. I think the only way to achieve that is to scan the source code as well as the container. The source code lacks information about things that get added later but the container lacks information about the components that comprise natively compiled binaries. Also package dependency info is mostly lost in the container but would be valuable to have in the SBOM. So both scans are necessary.

syft does get this right because it can scan both but it falls short in combining the results. I think one product should have one single SBOM, with all components and without duplicates.

Even if syft can scan the source it does not seem to write the package dependencies into the SBOM.

Also licenses are missing. I'm not sure it that falls in the scope of syft but I wish it would and it would also detect and report licenses.

It's nice that syft supports many output formats, because conversion was so far a big disappointment, regardless of the tool, including syft.

Lastly I find the command line interface is a mess. The useful but undocumented and deprecated power-user command doesn't seem to have a successor and the other commands seem inconsequential and buggy, for example

syft [command] --help

always prints the same generic help for all commands.

I think syft is promising but still a far way from being a good solution.

I’m sure I sound like an old man yelling at clouds but I don’t get why there’s such a push for these platforms.

I got an email from Apple about their event this month, and it said “Code New Worlds”, which in my mind seems to confirm they’re actually going ahead with an AR/VR device. Why?

Where is the market? How many of these things sell? What do people actually do with them?

I like the idea of an AR experience for enabling better work environments, even as a programmer, but my sense is that these technologies are very far in the future still. These will be toys for a while yet.

So what’s the motivation to get into this space? What is the opportunity that Apple sees, for example?

Part of me is optimistic that there’s some incredible application around the corner and it’ll be an exciting moment in the digital space. The other part of me feels like we’re really grasping here, and it’s just a toy (albeit a pretty cool one).
Good point. Canada just being generally a lot less populated by Europeans for whatever reasons than the USA (presumably in large part climate?) probably helped too, creating a context with slightly better outcomes.

But different legal regime under Great Britain -- and different position as colony of a European state vs independent "we're all we've got" -- does seem likely to be relevant, good call.

I suppose the best case for native nations in the War of 1812 would be that both USA and Great Britain get weakened and distracted from further colonization for as long as possible.
This declaration uses the word "privacy" once, and doesn't define it - and that's what we're seeing here and elsewhere.

Also, what does it mean to free from arbitrary interferrence with privacy? Interferrence implies more than observation, in my view.
