I think there's an ecological angle to it. The more targeted ads can become, the more valuable any individual ad display becomes, and the fewer ads need to be delivered to support the content. People making compelling content with well targeted ads can provide less obnoxious experiences (and they will stand out vs other sites that spam the hell out of your eyes). Basically, there's a dynamic at play where when ads are less targeted, you should expect to see more ads and those ads that you see are all the more "annoying" because they're not relevant.

I really am open to whatever this Privacy Sandbox is about but I just haven't found anything that explains it. The popup I saw actually seemed sort of interesting where it's teasing this interaction where your browser is saying "Hey, you seem to be interested in these things, can I tell ads that you're interested in them?" and I really sort of like that approach. But... I don't understand where that list is coming from, how new items get added to the list after I've reviewed it, etc. I do NOT want to have to POLL some preference page to make sure things I don't want in that list creep in. Or maybe I could explicitly add things I know I am definitely interested in from a list? I'd prefer it was more upfront and asked me each time it found a new one or however it works.

So... I actually see a way this could be empowering to users if done correctly. It's my lack of high-level understanding what is going on and my experience that Google seems to have become mealymouthed lately so I have a base level of distrust. It comes off as yet another "hey you need to stop what you are doing and research something Google's doing to you" again and I don't know if I have the time for that and I have the expectation that it's going to be a waste of multiple hours to try and find any useful info from Google itself. So it may be good or bad but really I don't give a shit about learning about things at the level of a browser implementer. In the mean time it's always easy to just say "No" and nope out of Chrome.

Perhaps if Microsoft allows it into Edge then it's at least been filtered through a Google adversary.

Edit: so I decided to take a peek and yeah of course privacysandbox.com is just your typical Google goosechase. "How does this work?" answers with essentially "We don't know! Go see developer.chrome.com or developer.android.com and see if you can manage to find something there!" Literally linking to the top level of those sites rather than anything useful. Fuck you too, Google.

I usually chuckle when larger (100+ computer-using employees) companies get hit by ransomware, usually because they have been nickel-and-dimeing their IT departments, treating them as cost centres instead of revenue centres, and generally starving them into something far too ænemic to protect the company from electronic threats. They made their bed, they need to learn how to sleep in it.

There's hundreds or thousands of these indie game engines because, yes!, it is a lot of fun to write them. You'd learn a lot. The #1 tip though is that you're writing a game, or an engine, not both.

> The wealth didn't "flow" to you. You created it.

Er, right. The "flow" here refers to what happens to the wealth after creation.

If after you create it you or your employer then undertake some change to the work arrangement (e.g. imposing a higher quota on productivity—thus allowing your employer to capture the additional value that you created while keeping your net wealth constant, along with the day-to-day toil you the worker are subjected to, probably—or maybe even increasing it), that would be an example of wealth flowing upward.

You created outsized value relative to needs of the employer. Your (wealthier) employer captured it and enriched themselves. That's wealth concentration.
I guess I assumed the flow would be something like:

Apple wants to sell things in France.

That's a dangerous assumption. We only know about the victims who are clueful enough about OPSEC to even be informed about the issue, let alone find out about an attack.
In my opinion they intentionally keep it misleading. And fact that every once in a while someone posts about their project with "open source" in title is good proof that it does confuse a lot of people.

The difficulty here is at any not tiny company nobody except a select few people at the very top can actually be led by the CEO in the way you are describing, and if they tried to lead the masses so to speak, it usually turns into a cult of personality, which actually doesn't look great to investors. So it's very difficult to lead large organizations in a way that doesn't necessarily result in scheming behind closed doors with a small club of in people, which doesn't look great either.

It seems to be almost a requirement for the CEO to be disliked for those reasons.

Obviously AI wouldn't be better and would be a black box to most employees, just like CEOs are already.

Two separate issues are at work here. Ionizing radiation will cause damage to cells no matter the power level (however, at very low power levels such as the normal background radiation the damage is likely negligible).

Non-ionizing radiation such as microwaves produces heating effects. At low power you may perceive warming and nothing else, at high power you'll surely be burned.

Heating from microwaves can be more damaging than say heat from a stove because the longer wavelength means heating starts from one's insides and will cause considerable tissue/organ damage before one realizes what's happening.

Microwave ovens can be very dangerous if the door interlocks are bypassed and the door opened whilst it's operating. People who are seen on YouTube doing this are either ignorant of the dangers or are just plain crazy!

Microwaves, especially shorter wavelengths above 5GHz (that's about 5 times that of mobile phones) are especially damaging to the eyes as interior of the eye doesn't have a good way of dissipating heat.

I was taught never to look into waveguides even when only used with receiving equipment as even the local oscillator can have enough power to damage one's eyes if concentrated in a small area. About 1W/cm^2 has a noticeable heating effect and from about 5GHz (approx 6cm wavelength) the CSA of waveguides is small enough to concentrate EM radiation of, say, 1W to do damage to one's eyes.

For mobile phones scale that figure down as the longer wavelength dissipates the power over a greater area (also remember area goes up by the square of the wavelength which means that phone wavelengths are much less damaging than microwave frequencies (>3GHz).

I'm not up to date on the latest research but from what I was taught I'd be concerned if more than 0.1W/cm^2 were entering my eyeball. In fact, if I recall the Russian standard for exposure was 0.1W/cm^2 which was considerably tighter than the US figure of 1W/cm^2.

Keep in mind those figures were for the microwave band which starts at 3GHz. As mentioned, because of the longer wavelength of mobile phones it's unlikely one could exceed those figures whilst using a mobile.
> It's much more pronounced when you have more than one or two levels of nesting.

Yes. That's a clear indication that either you configuration type structure is badly designed, or that you aren't trying to create a configuration type and should use some data encoding or programing language that fits your problem better.

I guarantee you the people using your software will curse you every time they try to edit a YAML file with more than 3 levels of nesting.
It is less that cards don't have PINs for the chip, but that they still have magnetic stripes. It is still possible to skim the card info.

LockDB is a cross-platform tool you can use to handle process/event locking and avoid race conditions. It is sometimes also known as a semaphore.

There are packages for Node.js / Browser / Bun / NPM, Deno, and you can also use it as a CLI.

Well at the time, there was something to celebrate for a new cable. Existing cables had huge connectors (30 pin) and in the case of USB micro had a life of maybe 1-2 years max from the pins and/or teeth wearing out.

The problem is that USB-C has nothing useful to offer over Lightning. Apple could've updated Lightning to support faster data if they wanted, and even then most people rarely use their cables for data anymore because of iCloud and AirDrop.

So this time around, it really is nothing to get excited over. I will even say it's a downgrade, because I have yet to experience a USB-C port that feels as strong and satisfying to plug in/out as Lightning.

Because that is how my network is set up here at home.
As far as I know, the terminals were mainly so expensive due to the large phased array antenna. I wonder if these cost reductions are mainly from managing to produce them cheaply and if that might be valuable as a commoditized phased array for other applications.
