Interesting article. One thing I'm left wondering though is: for the offending vendors, how aware were they of the potential harm they were causing?

IMHO the punishment should, in some sense, scale with that detail.

As a parent, if I found out that someone was knowingly poisoning my children for profit, I'd have some very uncharitable urges.
It'd be pretty simple to enforce sandbox/parental controls for the integrated webview browser.

1. Just limit the webview browser location to the same list as allowed by the parental control.

2. By default limit the webview browser location to the domain first opened by the app i.e locked to a single domain by default.

3. Allow webview browser to be expanded via a regex/pattern list of domains.

4. Limit the number of webview browser location changes so even if you can access a search engine with a global domain allowlist, it would just return to the first page after N window.location changes.

There's plenty of introspection you can do via JS (which is already being used to set/inject that `mm` object), it could even check for certain DOM elements, HTTPS fingerprint, etc. to determine if the page is an "intended" destination for the particular integrated webview browser.
I was a super long time lurker. Never made an account but was on there hours each day for the past +15 years.

Only credit scores are regulated. Other rating companies that keep track of who got arrested, or who got evicted have no such regulations. And the ratings agencies that expand upon the credit reporting, like The Work Number, are outside of the laws/regs governing credit scores.
OpenSuse LEAP is 100% binary compatible with SLES. You can build an entire dev environment with LEAP, clone it and run a script to make it SLES.

Ubuntu is pushing snaps to hard IMHO. Suse is moving towards immutable OS with flatpacks, but doing so in a much more responsible manner that is not trying to lock down the ecosystem.

RSS is an awful mess. Atom was invented in significant part to fix the problems of RSS (things like the content encoding disaster), and it succeeded. Except that, while everyone else accepted it (most things use Atom rather than RSS, admittedly with a few rather notable and massive holdouts), the podcasting industry ignored it.

The way RSS and especially podcasting RSS just pulls in bits and pieces from everywhere haphazardly, regularly ending up expressing the same thing three or four times, is an indictment against it. And if making <atom:link> mandatory doesn’t make you boggle (pulling in one element from the competing and superior standard, in what is at the very least a very mild abuse of the XML namespace—not that RSS cares about XML conventions on namespaces), nothing will.
Why should you putting your money in a savings account ensure that you are protected from inflation? The whole point of an economy is for money to move and be invested, not hoarded by a dragon sleeping on a pile of gold coins.
In Red Hat Subscription Management I can see that each entitlement for the "Red Hat Developer Subscription for Individuals" product is good for a system with up to 128 sockets. And you get 16 (or possibly 240, or possibly this is a bug) entitlements.
If they sold for profit and started putting their changes behind a paywall, that would be terrible. But they're just benefiting from Red Hat the same way that Red Hat benefits from upstream Linux. Red Hat is the one misbehaving here.
This reminds me of Oracle managing the health care site for Oregon. I remember when a bunch of us in the open source community were trying to avoid Oracle getting this contract:

You might read some Kuhn. Paradigms change when the old one becomes unsupportable. But the vast increase in computing power per dollar means we can waste a lot of it without it being economically uncomfortable.

Well, most of us. A good check on this is a podcast where Dr Kevin Bowers is interviewed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlzWM5GKQT8

He works for a financial trading firm, where the competitive nature of it means that every processor cycle counts. For him, older paradigms are perplexing and irritating, because they are major barriers to getting the most out of the hardware.
> People want to live close to work, and without sufficient housing in cities, commercial real estate in big cities was very likely to suffer in the long term.

Your logic doesn't really follow.

Assume that you can't develop cities any more and growth is stifled - this isn't really happening nationally - it is in some cities - but let's assume it's happening nationally anyway.

Office values would still go up (nominally), as long as the city itself doesn't lose its ability to generate income in real terms.

Office values are going down because 1) interest rates went up, 2) the demand for office space went down (no indication this was going to happen before the pandemic). And that's really it.

The majority of high paid workers live near cities. In most cities, there isn't just one nice suburb where all the workers live. The workers are spread out all over the metro (including - mainly - in the city itself), and downtown is the only convenient place.

You can't easily just open small offices in the suburbs because its unlikely the entire team is in that suburb. They're probably spread out across the city.

You either go to the office (in the city) or you don't (less demand for office space). Or you work at a boutique company where everyone lives in some suburb randomly (outlier).

Karen From The Suburb has always wanted everyone in the company to commute to an office park in her suburb so its convenient for her. It's not going to happen now unless Karen From The Suburb becomes CEO.

We'll either RTO to offices in the city, or we'll keep working from home.

The future isn't more office parks in Calabasas and Marin and East Hampton.
I-5? They should route it around the city altogether. Or cap it and build over the top.

Curious as to if you can give insight why? I think many mothers would say their role as a mother is the most important and valuable to them. Usually men are more ambitious in their work, and women who become ambitious in work and career risk missing the biological clock to have children.
The idea of the protest ending after 2 days regardless of outcome always sounded fishy to me. It's like a strike that lasts 2 days regardless of whether the employer gives the employees the rights and/or pay the strikers were "demanding." The only thing a strike like that would do is convince the employer that the employees demands were not serious
>Google's increasingly cavalier attitude towards security is concerning:

What an utterly ridiculous take. It's 2023 and there are a myriad of options available for kids accessing content they want to see without using some convoluted and hamstrung procedure.
I'm not quite sure what you're getting at, as OIDC and friends are very standardized when it comes to quite a few of the most important claims you would expect. There's an entire IANA registry [0] devoted to registered claims, in fact.

As for authz choices, you're correct that it's almost always entirely dependent on the application, and subject to frequent change as applications evolve, and as e.g. user and group structure evolves as well. The "managers" group of today might turn into "directors" and "VPs" as the company grows, and "pictures" might soon incorporate "albums" as an optional grouping factor with its own permissions.

In general, I would not really call authentication/authorization boring. There are components of it that are solved, but the reality of today is that people want a "share" link that they can paste in Slack and anybody can use it within seconds, and that kind of speed needs to be accounted for in authz, which is a significant engineering challenge.

Papers like Zanzibar [1] are super interesting to read too. And at least to me, not boring at all.

> At this point in my career, I’ll just decline interviews that don’t respect my time.

This is my philosophy now. In my younger days when I had no experience I had a lot of my time wasted by recruiters and companies - never again. Now I ask up front and politely what the interview process will be like. If there are any home projects or mentions of whiteboarding I end up passing. No big deal - I know there are probably loads of developers willing to waste their time competing for the position, but not me.

It's worked very well for me and eliminated a lot of stress when I've been looking for other positions. The only negative I can see is the strategy wouldn't work great when in between positions and really needing something, which luckily I've never had to experience. I suppose in that case I would force myself to go through with the hazing process.

The depositors were payroll accounts.

> So who was the bailout for? Not the average guy on the street...

The "bailout" (badly named) was for the average people working at these companies. Their families that wouldn't have gotten a paycheck. The grocery stores they couldn't have bought from.

Payroll accounts should be 100% FDIC insured the same why it works in many other countries.
> It's not a mistake

I disagree.

> The fathers aren't idiots or abusers.

Well, a lot of fathers (and mothers, and non-parents) are idiots or abusers. There are no qualifications for the job other than having functional sexual organs.

> It's to train the son to be able to function in a world that doesn't care and will never care about his feelings, his pain, his safety, or his life. A world where all acceptance and love is conditional on being useful to someone else.

The question is, to what extent are we just "preparing" boys for that world, and to what extent are we creating and perpetuating that world by brainwashing boys into this mentality?

> The fathers understand that showing weakness or needing emotional help as a male simply makes people distrust, reject, abuse, and abandon you. We've all had this experience over and over.

Speak for yourself, not for me.

> They care about their sons, so they try to teach them the easy way

It's not the easy way, though. Boys do have emotional needs, and neglecting those needs takes a hard, enduring toll on them. It's like throwing the kid into the deep end of the pool and forcing them to sink or swim.

> It's "the talk" for boys.

Except there's very little talking. Talking about it would be emotional availability.

Again, "Fathers are also more likely to sing to and soothe their toddler daughters at night when they cry." That's not "the talk". You don't sit down and have a hard talk about the future with a toddler, who hasn't even learned how to speak yet.

I felt that way for quite a while, and still miss Scala sometimes, but I find that TypeScript does a really good job of letting me express in the type system what I actually want. (Yeah, it's got some holes, yeah I miss the JVM, yeah JavaScript is lurking under there, but I can correctly write code that other people can understand in short order and the compiler will scream very loudly if people push my code's buttons wrong.)

The whole problem with security is that it's often difficult to tell whether all steps of what are happening now align with the device owner's true intent--

* Is it the device owner providing the direction to do this?

* Will the input being consumed as a result of this direction result in actions that the device owner approves of?

etc.

A kind of blanket assumption that everyone and everything is the adversary is a good starting point. The system needs to protect itself, in order to be able to faithfully follow the owner's instructions in the future.
Funny, a few years ago a friend of my dad's was drinking his morning coffee and saw a beautiful elk on his lawn just munching away happily. It was a couple days into the season, and he owned a large piece of rural land. So he filled his elk tag from his patio, in his bathrobe.
Yikes.

Are their any trustworthy, mainstream sources of spices in the U.S.?

E.g., if I buy turmeric from Walmart or Whole Foods, can I safely assume that they're monitoring the product streams for lead?

EDIT: I just saw a sibling comment about a company named "American Turmeric". I'm curious about more mainstream sellers, who might possibly monitor other spices as well. I'd prefer to not play whack-a-mole on a spice-by-spice basis.
Do you ever decide to stop playing a song before it is over, or do you refuse to because that would be a violation of the artists intent? Likewise do you ever listen to only some songs on an album, or do you always play all the songs on an album from beginning to end?

As cool as skyscrapers are as achievements of engineering, they're only a good solution when land is so expensive that the cost of the land dominates the cost of the building. Skyscrapers just aren't materially cost-efficient and don't scale well; as they get taller, a larger and larger percentage of the floorspace must be sacrified in order to accommodate structural elements and elevators. And then you have other problems, like how they have to pump their own water rather than relying on ordinary water towers, or how wind and earthquake risk has to be accounted for as the height increases.
Also worth pointing out, a lot of seemingly "bad ideas", are just because you-the person who decided the idea was "bad"- don't have all the information and context, and your job is to expand your context to include theirs before making any judgments.
I mean; You’re not wrong that tech can’t solve this problem alone…but your lack of faith in using these tools stands against preservation.

I worked in many communities. For 14 years I served several communities where the elders were the only ones who speak the language; in many cases, the languages are practically on life support.

About the only way we can preserve many of these is technical solutions to preserve what remains and wait for the political will to incubate the language.

That and learn. I’m honored that I made friends with some of the locals in many of these towns, and even more honored that they taught me some of their history and language. It can’t just be indigenous people learning the language too - those of us who speak the dominant language and are members of the dominant culture need to learn some too.
I think there's ample reason for 'not equal rights' to be treated as hostility. The biggest reason is direct or implied hostile opposition to obtaining equality. There was significant rejection by men for centuries of suffrage and other equal rights for women; this is hostility toward women's historical desires and wishes to be treated as equals.

Where it might be argued that individual men were only following cultural, religious, or other beliefs in denying equality to women then those cultures, religions, and other forces were hostile to women and their interests.

One of the things nobody ever mentions is that burnout (by any definition) isn't necessarily bad.

It could just be that you don't want the job you have anymore – and that is often good! You get to find a job you do want and your employer gets to find somebody who wants to do your job more than you do.
The rental value of the property determines the margin that creditors will extend to you.

If your property value dropped (with last paid rent being the proxy for this), you'd be liable to be margin called. If you're fully vested on margin in something illiquid like real estate, then it very well might be better to have a few vacant properties than be forced to liquidate to cover your margin balance.

Obviously though this has the makings of a real estate bomb, as a few forced liquidations could set off a cascade of value collapses.

That is untrue. Passenger vehicles are specifically excluded.

I built a distributed system once on two principles: 1. let it crash, 2. make everything deterministic. obviously, this resulted in crashes being invisible and transient (good) or an infinite crash loop (bad.)

I haven't used Erlang, but my impression is that it's probably the same experience there?
I understand that scenario, having lived in it for many years. However, in practice, that doesn't require bug-for-bug compatibility.

The proof of this is that such software tends to run perfectly fine even across different RHEL major versions with just a few compatibility packages.
That might have been true in the early 1900s when skyscrapers were new, but they can build skyscrapers on any kind of soil these days.
At least for me, part of the allure of the Lisp way of thinking is that it's perfectly okay, even desirable, to whip up an entire language just for one project.

My favorite part of SICP is this quote:

The evaluator, which determines the meaning of expressions in a programming language, is just another program.

I know everyone says it's not practical to run your own mail server, but I wonder if it's something I should have another look at. Even though this article says the cost of SES is 12:1 vs self managed infrastructure, and it's likely that SES is on the cheaper side of things, it's not really about the cost for me, it's about the loss of control.

I don't like having the potential for changes I can't control. It almost feels like I need two of everything just to be safe.

I wish some of the up-and-coming auth systems (ex: logto.io) would have some kind of tiered fallback for transactional email. For example, I have self hosted mail that's tier 1 (use first), AWS SES as tier 2 (use for failover), and Postmark as tier 3 (use as a last resort).

The reason I list Postmark last is because there is a point where price becomes a factor for me. If Postmark is 10x SES for 50k messages, and SES is 12x self managed infrastructure, that's 120x costs (12,000% markup), right? I feel like that's so expensive I might have gotten it wrong, so please correct me if I did.
> A car is a machine to provide negotiating leverage in real estate markets.

Now that's a good insight.

It's amusing to read the comments from commercial real estate owners. There's a huge sense of entitlement. If they're losing money, somebody else must do something to make them stop losing money. Immediately.

The commercial real estate business did this in 2006-2008, and in 1999-2000 in San Francisco. The mall industry has been shrinking for years. It's not the end of the world.
