If you have a device, it must either subscribe to an auto-update system supplied by the manufacturer or, if you prefer to manage your own device, you take on the responsibility for managing it. Your device is part of the shared ecosystem. Either you buy one that comes with a maintenance plan or you are the maintenance plan... the former for the low-tech folks, the latter for the higher-tech folks.
I bet we could work up a reasonable schedule. Thereâ(TM)s plenty of regulatory frameworks from automotive standards, zoning codes, and various industries. It would take some study, but I think we could identify a timeframe â" you run a device, itâ(TM)s your job to keep it up to spec, no different than a car passing annual inspection.
If it is a zero day then thereâ(TM)s no âoefail to maintain.â This was fixable back in April but these people did not apply. Thatâ(TM)s a failure to maintain.
But when the idea is tested and the results back the hypothesis then your ranting turns into anti-science rhetoric. If you have counter evidence to present, please do so, but otherwise, youâ(TM)re just scoffing at a counterintuitive result you donâ(TM)t like.
No, youâ(TM)re not the only one. The point is that it is easily readable for most people but not as easily as Arial. The change is subtle but enough to engage your brainâ(TM)s âoethis is novel, better pay attentionâ mode.
The summary says, "The brain-data metrics were more accurate than current professional tests used to assess the same manual skills, according to the study." How was "more accurate" measured? You'd have to have an objective way of judging level of skill for a given task. A senior surgeon might have rote memorized the wrong action. How was that assessed? This makes sense if it is just looking for years of practice and not necessarily skill of practice.
How well does this paint clump together? As a spray, it seems likely that some of the particles would linger in the air. Medical researchers are still trying to get a handle on the risks of nanoparticles to living beings -- we just aren't made to filter stuff at that level because its not common in the natural environment for there to be free-floating bits at the nanoscale. It might be safe, but we don't currently know. Here is one report from the UK government just listing the research unknowns about nanoparticle exposure. Before we start spraying whole buildings in stuff like this, we should know the environmental and health impacts. I hope the inventors of this stuff start working on those questions before they try to productize this.
Neither the law nor iPhones are my area of expertise, but you asked the question, and it intrigued me enough to go look a bit. From what I can tell, the iPhone root password cannot be remotely accessed unless an SSH server is installed, which requires jailbreaking. The iPhone does not ship with this ability nor does Apple provide the ability to enable it. Since the law requires non-default passwords only when they're accessible remotely, I think Apple is in the clear. Because they fulfill section 1798.91.04.b.2, they do not have to fulfill 1798.91.04.b.1. (Link to bill's text is in the original article summary above.)
It wasn't just that he didn't like white nationalists. His position was empowering the white nationalists. They were using him as political cover. He felt he had to step away from his position to stop inadvertently supporting them.
Is there honestly anything in the document that is a political agenda? The Linux Code of Conduct
All it asks is that people not drive others away from the project by being hateful. It's not a particularly political stance. And it lists some particular examples -- no doxing, for example. There's nothing political about it to my eyes.
Unfortunately, the steps as written leads to the circle where both sides tell the other side that they're being an asshole. Yelling ensues.
You missed a key part of #3: If someone says you're being an asshole, stop and analyze your behavior and theirs and figure out why they're upset. Do an honest analysis and don't assume the problem is with them. Then either "change your behavior" or "share your analysis back with the person who said you were an asshole and engage in dialog until you can both agree on a standard of behavior."
Linux has no marketing department. It isn't running ads to "put Linux under your Christmas tree" or anything like that. The only meaningful alternative to Windows is MacOS*, and a lot of people don't want to shell out the money for Apple or don't like Apple's walled garden. Linux isn't a commercial OS. It doesn't come preinstalled on computers that you typically find in the latest Amazon sale or on the floor at Best Buy. No one is pushing it into the consumer view. And if someone did get a Linux box somehow, I have no idea who they would call to help them turn it on or troubleshoot anything that went wrong with it. Linux effectively does not exist in the consumer sphere.
* Maybe Chrome OS. I'd accept an argument for that.
Fast food joints employ a lot of teens. How many of them will go on to bigger careers? Playing the long game might be interesting for a fast food joint near various prep schools known for churning out senators and CEOs. Get the prints of a minor today; have the prints of a major tomorrow.
This is a problem faced by many leaders -- they walk a fine line, but the people who follow them don't recognize that it's a specific line. "Hate the sin but not the sinner" too often translates to "hate the sinner" when the followers emulate the leader. That kind of degradation of standards is why leaders often have to be held (or hold themselves, ideally) to an extraordinary standard of behavior. They have to be better than normal so that normal doesn't degrade.
Find a third way, such as firewalling the relationship between the two programmers. If your top programmer is toxic, then have them route communications through you and you'll share with the rest of the team, and vice-versa. In my experience, the abrasive ones will appreciate having someone running interference for them on the social relations front. It's only a dichotomy if there's no third way, but I've yet to encounter such a situation on any software team I've been part of.
But if they aren't socially apt, they're going to end up treating other people like garbage. It's hard to have both. The social niceties can go a long way to making sure a company doesn't -- for example -- have men talking over women at meetings. Any meritocracy needs a mechanism for making sure that you aren't marginalizing the most skilled persons, and you might be marginalizing those who need the social structure in order to actually be heard. It's a balancing act, not a this-or-that.
Actually, God intended to make software work for everyone, but all the plans for making that happen basically reduce to âoehave another Noah-level flood or similar extinction event.â The only survivors would be those who can use complex software. But then God got into Tetris and hasnâ(TM)t been active since. Keeps muttering about âoejust one more game...â
It is common to all phones here, not just iPhones. "Locked" means that the phone itself will only accept SIM cards from a specific vendor. "Unlocked" means it will accept SIM cards from anyone, as long as the phone is physically capable of talking on that SIM's network.
Yes, exactly. This is why airport security has been desperately trying to come up with a strategy for handling these ubiquitous items. FAA says they are not allowed in checked luggage at all in the USA. And they limit how big the batteries can be and how many an individual can carry. There have been security problems with them since at least the Galaxy smartphones started shorting out. It's a real problem... I've seen several FAA proposals to ban all items that have these batteries. That (obviously) meets a lot of pushback, but the folks worried about air security worry about these a lot.
