> This is entirely unrelated to a company linking accounts between their apps and their website, which is entirely uncontroversial and has been for as long as there have been apps on iPhones. I mean, how else is a Gmail app supposed to be consistent with the website?

The policy applies whether or not your app uses accounts. Software licensing can be as simple as "you pay us, we email you a link which will launch the app and apply your license key." But not if you're using this new special linking flow.

If someone clicks the purchase button in your app to go to your website, decides not to purchase it, then 6 days later they navigate back to your website from Google or a link that a friend sent them and they decide to buy it that time, Apple will expect you to have tracked that they used the in-app link a week ago so that you can pay them. You might prefer not to track customers browsing your website (for example, you might avoid using cookies so that you aren't required to plaster a cookie consent banner on every page) but Apple says too bad.

How will Apple enforce this? I have no idea. But to get permission to use external purchase links you have to agree to pay Apple 27% on purchases with 7 days of clicking it and give Apple permission to audit your accounting of those purchases.
Yeah, asst managers lived a brutal life walking back and forth through the stores on walkie talkies all day long. I have a feeling its a lot of peoples first salaried jobs, they move up from front line to asst mgr so willing to take more abuse to not make $15/hr anymore. I was there at many points. I did that leaving HD, 12.50 to 40k in ops.

I can picture the faces of all of my managers, ASMs. I can't picture the face of either of my store managers. I'm not sure I actually ever saw them. They definitely weren't in the store often.

I loved my first store and HATED my second store. If you're full-time at HD you have no control of your hours at all. They'd schedule me to close 11pm-12am then open at 5am the next day at the second store. I just quit one day. I constantly got sick from getting no sleep.

If you're part-time there you have 100% control of your hours. Tons of people in college who worked 2-4 hours a day. It was miserable watching them come and go.
The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Markdown
I don't think people can predict what will happen to the products they buy in the future. But I do think people can choose to use or not use the products they buy based on new information. And my point is not that this is a good or bad thing (for the record I think it's bad but so is the company going out of business), just that more often than not the loudest consumer advocates seem to have incredibly dim views of consumers themselves. It must be the case that consumers don't know or don't understand the tradeoffs they are making, rather than that consumers simply place a lower value on "privacy".

> There's the rub: luggage ends up at UnclaimedBaggage after the airline has exhausted all other avenues to try and find the owner.

> There are no contactable owners, so the ethical dilemna solves itself.

Er, that's a very... convenient excuse for absolving people of ethical responsibility. Geez, there's no contact info on it, how could I possibly reunite it with its owner?? It's not like we have any clue who's lost their bags or what those bags looked like, right??

The owners are still able to describe and recognize their bags and their contents... the fact that an airline doesn't provide adequate means to search through lost bags doesn't mean it's somehow impossible to pair some of the owners and bags correctly.
Why isn't the procedure used anymore, since they stopped using it before this was discovered?
This is near impossible.

Plane wings are designed to withstand plane weight multiplied to overload from moving with acceleration to up or down, plus considerations about wearing of materials (not important in this case, because plane was near new when disappeared).

For this plane, considered overload, I think should be about 3.5 and wear overload about 2. Usually all these mean, when it was new, could do 4x and accepted to do aerobatics, but for survived now, I'm not sure if accepted straight flight with 1.5 overload :)

Now imagine scenario, what NATURE force could do so delicate manipulation, so bent each wing to very similar angle, with 4x plane weight force and then stop?

If you think, it was bent later, imagine scenario, how possible, near exact wear of each wing?

F# isn't a Lisp, so I think it's fair to consider it out of scope. I think the only reason Haskell got mentioned is because the author has experience with it and was using it as a personal point of reference.
Don't really get the criticism of Clojure for being hosted on the JVM, particularly relative to its status as a "productive" Lisp. Like oh, you get access to one of the biggest and most mature library ecosystems out there as well as best in class operational tooling? Obviously there are use cases where the JVM doesn't fit and all things being equal I prefer shipping statically linked binaries too, but the JVM still feels like an obvious "pro" here.
One thing that I think people forget about is that the prompt used when "reproduc[ing] those same copyrighted works" is also a part of why it spits out similar things. It's not just the model doing it. A traditional artist can be prompted to recreate a copyrighted work in much the same way with the right prompts.

The opposite could not be further from the truth.

Trucker forums are full of ways to cheat the devices like simply pulling a fuse or replacing it with one that's been burned out, and police can't / won't check electronic logbooks because it's too much of a hassle for them.

The companies installing the electronic logbook devices are the same people who have incentive to cheat the system. So do you think anyone notices, complains, or gets disciplined when "the fuse keeps burning"?

> Pretty much everything about the Nazis, about Germany, about the war in general, is written by the not victors. If you grew up watching the Discovery Channel, everything you know about WWII was written about former Wehrmacht generals in semi-autobiographical stories.

> ...

> Don't forget the entirety of the "Clean Wehrmacht" myth, that the whole Nazism thing was mostly contained to Hitler and the SS and the normal German army was mostly clean from the desire to gas all the jews.

Thinking about this a bit more, couldn't that even be thought of as history being written by the victors? In this case the victors (Allies) wanting to write history to rehabilitate the losers (Germany) to fight the next enemy (the Soviets), and allowing defeated elements of the German forces (former Wehrmacht generals) to do so?

IIRC, there was an period where the Allied consensus was to reduce Germany to a nation of disarmed farmers, but that was quickly reversed once the Americans realized they needed a reasonably powerful Germany to oppose the Soviets.
The polls implied about a 20% chance of Trump beating Clinton too. I guess I'm not sure what you're getting at. That seems like the perfect example of not a sure thing.
That's a fine thing to do in Common Lisp. If you ever change your mind, it's very easy to change a function into a generic function and split off the body into one or more methods.

Because it was shown to also spread a prion disease (CJD, though not the variant kind as far as I have understood)
>The new version feels a bit nerfed, several users have pointed this out. But you can always increase the difficulty in several different ways.

I've always felt that it wasn't really so difficult unless you wanted it to be. My forts only ever fell to boredom or FPS, but I stuck to biomes where things stay dead. Goblins/undead/vampires/werecreatures are a pain, but usually manageable if you're not totally unaware. Clowns only ask that you take a limited amount of cotton candy if you don't want the circus to come to town.
I've often wondered if Alzheimer's is actually novel instances of prion disease.

For instance, Kuru was developed within I think a handful of generations in a population of ~20,000 with limited opportunities for transmission (only transmitted when someone dies and their family eats their brain).

If the base incidence rate for a novel prion is that high, can you explain Alzheimer's as just that? It would be sad news for pharmaceutical companies - it would render Alzheimer's as a disease in the same class as cancer. Total systems breakdowns that are low-probability but inevitable on a long enough timescale.
This system clearly and trivially deanonymizes the internet. Even worse than a centralized system, it uses a simple "just trust me bro" mentality that issuers would never injure users for personal gain and would never keep logs or have data leaks, which would expose the Internet traffic of a real person.

Yup. Apple is closed and for profit.

This will eventually even out. Look at the gains of Linux desktop. Once the curve of innovation flattened, open source caught up and now delivers I think a superior product to both Apple and Microsoft.

It took 10 years. But it's happening and I think the future looks bright.

We worked out to produce these hormones (or equivalent compounds) synthetically, so we no longer need to extract them from the brains of deceased humans, a procedure which risks transmitting disease.

Not just human growth hormone, also other hormones used to be derived this way, e.g. those used to induce ovulation in fertility treatment.

I know someone who received cadaver-derived fertility hormones in the 1980s. She has a small risk of developing CJD and dying from it. It hasn't happened yet, and probably never will, but no one can say for sure if she is infected. If you don't develop symptoms (some people are infected but never progress, others suddenly develop symptoms one day after decades of being asymptomatic), the only way to know for sure if you had it is at autopsy, through destructive testing of brain tissues.

I don't have a dog in your fight regarding the original point you made related to the number of bugs increasing but the logic in your comment is flawed though.

"I mean you could always try to find some sources to try and prove me wrong if you want? "

That's not really how it works though. If you make a claim, either you back-it up or it's irrelevant.

Case and point: I believe that a flying tea pot created the universe. By your logic I am right and it should be up to you to prove me wrong.

So to conclude this argument, if you are correct, you should prove it as the person who responded to you asked you to do.

Failing that,your comment goes back to being nothing more than your opinion instead of a fact.
I'd like to see a practical use case for Minikanren other than quines. It's fun and interesting, but I'm not smart enough to go from "a tiny set of primitives" to "solving practical problems". I had trouble even implementing the basic "moses is a man" examples you see in Prolog tutorials.

Second paragraph of the article:

>In the interim, scientists had discovered that that type of hormone treatment they got could unwittingly transfer bits of protein into recipients’ brains. In some cases, it had induced a fatal brain disease called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or CJD — a finding that led to the banning of the procedure 40 years ago.

In other words, it gave people mad cow disease.

> Last Thursday, HP CEO Enrique Lores addressed the company’s controversial practice of bricking printers when users load them with third-party ink. Speaking to CNBC Television, he said, "We have seen that you can embed viruses in the cartridges. Through the cartridge, [the virus can] go to the printer, [and then] from the printer, go to the network."

I can't stop laughing. He can't be serious? If this was true, it would HP's fault for putting a chip in the cartridges in the first place! A cartridge should just be a container of ink, there shouldn't be a place to put a virus.
That would match with the leading mis-navigation theory. She and her navigator were fine and healthy, as was the plane. They were looking for the island to land on, but had messed up the navigation and were sufficiently off-course. There were US Navy boats in the area of the island that heard their radio calls. There was no emergency -- they just reported to be searching for the land that they should've found. Presumably they flew until they ran out of fuel and likely set it down in the water as gently as possible.
Yes, definitely. It hints to the root cause being "very similar in many respects to what happens in the human prion diseases like CJD, with the propagation of these abnormal aggregates of misfolded proteins and misshapen proteins."

So while this might be unrelated to the general cases, it's still a promising area of investigation.
I think it's convoluted relative to a Smart Banner. Smart Banners give users a clear call to action, and they're not buried in a menu somewhere.

- Air Drop

- Share via text message (with several different contacts listed individually to share with)

> It’s time for a makeover, the authors of the report argue, which could garner up to $10 trillion in health and economic benefits (equivalent to roughly 8 percent of global GDP in 2020).

... does that mean that even after the makeover, they're still talking about $5T/yr of "damages"? Is that reasonable? What would it take to get to a food system that is a _positive_?
Yes but: if the commitment is driven by internal researchers and coders standing firm about making their work open source (a rumour I’ve heard a couple times), most of the credit goes to them.

Someone (actually probably someone commenting on this threads) , with way too much money and time, has been playing catch me if you can. They use a blend of retail analytics, ambient noise and other NLP tuning features of phones and actual visuals I haven’t figured out yet.

My question is if someone is actually using advanced satellite surveillance capabilities to augment their running joke by looking in my window, (which can’t be ruled out in my world unfortunately), would one of these devices pick up the RF?
