Apple: "Okay, we've loaded the new firmware on the device."
FBI: "Thanks! Hey, wait--we tried brute-forcing the password and the device seems to have wiped itself! What gives?"

Don't ad blockers have a mode whereby they download the ad (so the advertiser considers it as having been served) but doesn't show it to the user, thereby killing two birds with one stone: the server thinks the ad has been served, but the viewer never sees the ad.
Microsoft lying about minimum requirements.
The question is why?
It doesn't really cost msft anything to change the arbitrary requirements. They ought to have been upped to 4GB years ago.
4GB is not nearly enough. 640GB should be enough for anybody.
Some people would say that security doesn't depend on fast updates: security depends on not having security vulnerabilities in your software to begin with.
Security doesn't depend on not having security vulnerabilities in your software to begin with; security depends on preventing people from discovering and exploiting your existing security vulnerabilities.
If engaged couples were presented with a full description of the standard terms and conditions of marriage, including the clauses regarding division of assets on divorce, half of them wouldn't get married. Which is why this should happen, because those marriages are unfair to the people who aren't aware of the terms; and why it won't happen, because society likes people to be married.
I see where this is going. With all these clueless people continuing to get married despite being unaware of the conditions, eventually the marriage bubble will burst and the Church will repossess their spouses.
Were I a billionaire, I would give away services with no ads, no tracking, no analytics, just to undercut the monsters like Google and Microsoft to show that it doesn't have to be about the money.
Undercutting the competition by providing things too cheaply (or free) is anti-competitive. Once you captured enough customers/eyeballs, the FTC and DOJ would fine you into oblivion.
Trump just says stuff because he doesn't actually know how anything works. Business included. He's a complete moron who just got handed a silver spoon at birth. His apparent success should not be any indication he has a clue how anything other than bribing works in the world. He know nothing about politics, nothing about business, nothing about people, nothing about the world. He's gotten were he is simply because of money.
Sounds like every US president ever. What exactly was your point?
I almost never use "found" code verbatim. Usually I have to rewrite it to fit into my project, not to mention remove the assumptions the original author baked into it in the first place. At that point I've changed it so much it becomes a derivative work.
But, I *always* provide attribution in my source code by linking to the URL where I found the code snippet. Not to give the author their moment of fame, but so next time anybody looks through my code they know where I got that weird function and can visit the site to see the discussion. So at the end of the day, what I'm doing is called documentation, and anybody who *doesn't* do that should be smacked for being an idiot, not for breaking SO's silly rule.
He told her the truth, that he was sexually attracted. I think his is much better than if he had thought of a fake reason for her to leave his courses, e.g. to give her bad grades so that she chooses another department to specialize later on.
Being sexually attracted to somebody doesn't mean you will automatically harass them or become a douchebag. He should have sucked it up and done his job. OTOH if he felt he was unable to do his job, he should have sought counseling or gotten another job, i.e. the same thing he would have done if he was unable to do his job for any other reason, like a broken back or nervous breakdown or anything else.
I would not vote any at all. If I am asked to choose to eat one of different kind of poo, why should I pick one to eat if I am also allowed to pick none of them? It is stupid to "must pick" one if you can simply "not do it" instead.
So whose name will you be putting on the write-in ballot?

From here, the NIT would send a target's IP address, a unique identifier generated by the NIT, the operating system running on the computer and its architecture, information about whether the NIT had already been deployed to the same computer, the computer's Host Name, operating system username, and the computer's MAC address."

But you cannot compare the two. Citizens of the US are guaranteed certain freedoms and liberties.
Promised? Yes. Guaranteed? No. A guarantee is only a promise until it is backed up.
Uh, editors, it's "myriad", not "myriad of".
...iPhone belonging to one of the San Bernardino shooters...
The iPhone no longer belongs to Apple. Why should Apple be legally obligated to do anything with the phone if it's not theirs?
This isn't 1980, we can parse identifier names that are longer than 2-3 characters.
You realize that the BSD project dates back to the 1970s, and Unix itself dates back to the 1960s?

With a Tesla motor.
I drive with a dash cam. It records video of hundreds of innocent cars every day. Is this morally wrong?
No, because nobody has access to it but you, and you are not in a position to profit by abusing that info.
why would anyone NOT want to report it?
They may be family snapshots that include nudity, e.g. kids in the bath. Why ruin somebody's life for something like that?

Or, as my boss put it:
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
He's up one world and down one soul. Duh.

Drone operators don't kill for awards. They kill for high score credits.
They're libertarians. They're by-definition anti-government.
In that case, the Founding Fathers are anti-government because they built in checks and balances that limit what each branch can do.

So, basically Windows 10 telemetry.
But who made god?
It's gods all the way down.
