I'm a bit surprised to hear this - what do you mean here? My experience is that bureaucracy is rife in the US.

Relevant read from TrailOfBits on the pitfalls of using eBPF for security monitoring: https://blog.trailofbits.com/2023/09/25/pitfalls-of-relying-...
(Pitfalls of relying on eBPF for security monitoring (and some solutions))

> eBPF is a powerful tool for Linux observability and monitoring, but it was not designed for security and comes with inherent limitations. Developers need to be aware of pitfalls like probe unreliability, data truncation, instruction limits, concurrency issues, event overload, and page faults. Workarounds exist, but they are imperfect and often add complexity.

Maybe eBPF tooling should come with warning labels on what pitfalls are accounted for.

I do more or less the same - I look for tower servers. The hardware is good, the maintenance is easy, plenty of space for storage and memory, and so on.

> Do you really think a judge would allow a guilty verdict based on stolen genetic data obtained from a hacker?

The judge won't have any idea how the innocent person's data got entered into the government's DNA database. The same way that judges doesn't care how police got your fingerprints on file (They got mine when I was in grade school. Teachers lined all the kids up in the hallway and the police fingerprinted us all. They told us it was in case we were kidnapped.). The judge cares about how the DNA was collected at the scene of the crime. It's enough that it matched DNA in the government's database. Even if it was discovered that the DNA came from 23andme's data I doubt they would care.

> Do you really think braindead landlords and HR people would make decisions based on Promethease or whatever future tool replaces it?

They already perform illegal background checks on employees and renters. (see https://money.cnn.com/2014/04/09/pf/data-brokers-ftc/index.h...). Whatever interesting data can be extracted from the DNA that was leaked will be added to the dossiers data brokers have on the victims.

They seem very opaque on rules broken whenever you submit VN's. Which is odd given the... variety of VN steam offers.

In that case, few things will actually scale for The Google except scaling itself. The only reason that The Google even has things like Gmail is they consider it a loss leader, and the only reason quirky things like Google Books still exists is because there is just enough engineers who care at that company that said projects get (barely) maintained. Otherwise, it's all about growth and scaling things, and because of the level of decoupling between the customer and the business model from direct-transactional perspective, there is little to no need to treat the customer as if they exist at all. The Google certainly have a very interesting business model, indeed.

The problem is the Fed is using the only tool they have, the federal funds rate, to control the housing market. Yes, it has the effect of cooling the market but it doesn't solve the actual problem, actually it exacerbates it: there aren't enough housing units where they're needed. That's a supply problem. It's the insufficient supply that's the root cause of housing prices rising. The irony is raising the federal funds rate makes it more expensive to build housing so it tends to cool down construction and thus further constraining supply.

What have we actually accomplished? Locking people out of home ownership. But the Fed only has one tool and they're using it to the best of their ability.

“The federal Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) of 1988 and California laboratory regulations require the lab store your de-identified genotyping test results and to keep a minimal amount of test result or analysis information,” an email from 23andMe said. “Our laboratory will retain your genetic information and a randomized identifier on their secure servers for a limited period of time, 10 years pursuant to CLIA regulations.”

I was friends with a former exec. At a party I remember him callously mentioning that you can’t delete data off their platform. I inquired a bit more and he pointed me to one of the laws referenced above

23andme is not lying in a legal sense. They seem to be deceptive though
DDG's userbase is also pretty particular, though.

Your average DDG user is somewhat privacy conscious, so they probably know much more about tech tan your average Google user, and are a lot more likely to be a programmer than anybody studying literature.

By this logic, buying paperback books second hand is also unprincipled and cheap, no?

Which is a nice segue into a related topic, that by instituting DRM, publishers have removed the possibility for consumers to buy a book, read it once, and, knowing they will not want to read it again, decide to resell it for some of the value so they can buy more books.

None of this makes piracy ethical. But the whole system is rife with unethical practices, participating in almost any way is a quandary. The choice of simply not consuming literature and technical knowledge with the benefits of modern technology is not a perfect solution, for the individual nor society, either.

FTA: "Braking performance was one of the worst areas of the report. Tesla’s engineers were aiming for a score of 7, or “fair,” on the Society of Automotive Engineers rating scale, but the alpha version achieved only a 4, or “poor” rating. According to the report, in January 2022, the Cybertruck’s brake pedal pressure pad was still under design, and so the alpha experienced “excessive pedal travel and inconsistent stop,” and “excessive pitch during friction braking,” braking during turning issues, as well as power braking instability."

As someone who will probably see a lot of these on the road near me, it's kind of terrifying.

39.41% according to your own source.

It was ~32% pre-pandemic, and excepting for the Great Recession, looked to be stable at ~30%. Considering the governments revenue over that same period, again according to your own source, is also ~30% we're at less than 1/3 of GDP expenditure.

I think that is a reasonable public expenditure for a representative government, especially for the third most populous country on the planet and the largest GDP.
It is not the author who decised on DRM or not - it is the publisher. E<G all TOR or Baen books are DRM free.

Unfortunnately in the paper world there are separate North American and CommonWealth contracts. Many publishers do only one thus many books have different publishers in the two regions.

These two contracts could have one with DRM and one without.

What reality did I alter? Bitcoin's current value is *completely* irrational and absolutely unjustified. When it had some prospective future, sure some tenuous argument could be made, but now it's basically NFTs -- people collecting worthless things, with so little real (not wash) trading that for a while the illusion holds on. That's the sham. In the same way that GameStop or BedBathandBeyond didn't become retail powerhouses because a bunch of WallStreetBets sorts aped it.

You seem to be under delusions that a given niche market is demonstrative of much at all. Crypto was the future. Now it's, for all intents and purposes, dead outside of crime, but as long as there are HODL sorts it can keep up the pretend value.

> someone bright enough to go to MIT

I'd argue that it depends on the person. Intelligence is certainly helpful, but it's not enough on its own, and it's not the only path to creating something valuable.

I initially intended to take the university path. I got a full scholarship to the university of my choice, but quickly ran into all kinds of unexpected roadblocks - the short version of that story is that I had undiagnosed ADHD that first manifested itself in a destructive way when I left my parents' home. I ended up with severe depression, lost my scholarship, and failed out. Though it took a few years, I ultimately recovered from it and have built a life I'm happy with.

This is relevant because I've kept up with many of the people I met in my short time in university. Most of the most intelligent people I met there have ended up in various "enterprise" settings. They make good money and I'm in no way slighting their accomplishments - but they originally intended to be entrepreneurs. They did very well in school, and got attractive employment offers upon graduation. Several of them said they were only going to work for others for a couple of years to built capital; almost twenty years later, none of them have followed through with that plan.

On the other hand, some of the "frat guy" types I know spent most of their time socializing. They performed adequately in their classes, but not well enough to attract six-figure job offers right out of school. Several of them started businesses immediately upon graduation. They drew upon their network of friends from school to make those successful, and today they're in a better place than their peers who were more defined by their intellect in school.

To put it another way - intelligence and academic success can be helpful, but it can also lay a subtle trap of moderate success that will prevent people who are otherwise capable of achieving ambition dreams from doing so. Meanwhile, having a strong social network composed of the "right kind of people" can multiply your reach.
SongTradr recently acquired 7digital. They plan to put the Bandcamp catalogue in there, so my biggest fear is that they get rid of Bandcamp as a separate product and just force everyone to use 7digital.
That would make sense, considering they fired most writers (which is one of the things that was making Bandcamp special) and would confirm that everyone who said "The buyer doesn't understand what they are buying" were 100% correct. For them, Bandcamp was some sort of "itunes store for weird music".
