He preferred icons that had meaning to real world objects and, as such, blocked any and all attempts to "plastify" the UI - much to the chargin of the UI designers who immediately raced ahead and changed it all in iOS7 TWO YEARS after Jobs DIED!
He didn't bless it, they finally had the chance to overrule him!
I've worked with HIPAA level data handling and, like all things, its weakest point is the point of access. If somebody with credentials wants to peek at information they have access to (but aren't supposed to be looking at) they can. My system logged all read/write accesses and we made sure to encrypt any and all data in storage and only reveal data to people with proper credentials.
Locked down like a bank but any bank teller still has access to all the money. (so to speak) Bank Tellers get caught because cross audits discover missing money which trigger the investigation. Stolen data doesn't disappear from the database so it's often never noticed.
I went to a doctor affiliated with a major hospital chain (EG not an independent doctor but one who's offices were in hospital owned space and who handled the IT for the billing and records) and got diagnosed with a condition. After some discussion my doctor decided it might be temporary and we decided to monitor it - no prescriptions were written and I made no other contact with any other medical facility/pharmacy about it. Only the doctor's office knew. Not 2 weeks later my parents (whom I hadn't lived with in 20 years) were getting calls advertising drugs and therapies for my condition. HIPAA my ass....
Possibly Facebook's algorithm "mis" identified the friend as a face in one of her pictures (and because of genetics they would look biologically similar).
I'm more intrigued about how the one night stand got identified.
Dude! Cheetah Blood WORX! My data showed a 10% speed increase when I smeared my ethernet cables with it.
Much better performance than I got from my gold tipped Monster Optical cables (the gold tips provide better signal connectivity!)
(No joke kids - Monster sold them at one time and the market bullet point said just that!)
It's not even a very good article overall. The research and interviews seem good but the article meanders all over and I'm still not quite sure how Tiburon "stole" the franchise. In fact the whole story of the formation of Tiburon sounds like the more interesting story (I wonder if that was what the writer originally was trying to do but couldn't get Tiburon to interview)
Except (at least for the last 2 boats I saw) they were hit midship. If they had been hacked I'd have expected the GPS hacking to steer the ships INTO other ships - not vice versa - which would require a higher level of control.
The problem isn't that they searched in the wrong place. (They searched in the areas that were most likely where the plane came down with the info they had at the time.)
The article is about how computer analysis shows the wreckage to be potentially elsewhere but the government won't fund another search
Aside from the cost it will still be difficult to find the wreckage as the black box beacons are long dead and even if they do find the wreckage after all this time there won't be much to salvage or to reconstruct what possibly happened aside from the data recorders.
It's up to private salvage teams at this point.
They hacked the man behind the curtain didn't they?
x0rz found the tweet, posted it and then ProtonMail told them who they hacked and x0rz promptly yanked down their post too!
If that's not "oh sh--!" moment, I dunno what is!
Movies have largely become "event" things in our culture. Date night, family nights. Not something we do on a daily or even monthly basis.
$20 a month for a couple to have 4 "date nights" seems like a good deal but how is that any better than $10 for a month of Netflix and chill nights? Especially when your choices are far more limited and you have to deal with annoying crowds.
(full disclosure - I pay extra for IMAX)
Well housewives do as they go to get their depression era china sets (the butter dish is being offered this week!).
Frankly I say I'm going for the newsreels to keep up on current events but I'm really there for the Looney Tunes shorts... I like Bugs Bunny.
pfft - I've got a wide screen monitor and about every other NVIDIA driver update seems to make Windows scrunch all the icons and apps to the left hand side during sleep mode because the resolution "changes" during sleep.
I mainly blame NVIDIA for that (they get it right half the time!) but I don't see why the desktop doesn't remember where the positions WERE when the resolution comes back.
(I suppose it could be the Asus monitor or a DisplayPort quirk too but I've seen similar behavior on friends' non-widescreen, non-Asus monitors with Displayport and a similar NVIDIA card)
But, again, I've been "trained" to accept this quirky behavior because MS just writes the OS and it's up to the hardware vendors to dutifully ensure their components work within the experience.
Hear hear - Although I don't have as much problems with sleep mode as I do with dead wifi or dead camera coming out of sleep mode.
I've been trained to expect that from windows PC manufacturers as MS and the hardware vendors go back and forth. But here, MS produces both the hardware AND the software and you'd think they could at least resolve the problems after 2 years (SP4 user here).
So we're now taking prophetic science advice from an investment firm?
We're taking science advice from a firm that makes economic forecasts
We're taking sceicne advice from a company that doesn't even take responsibility for their predictions because the responsibility is on the consumer
Of course my investment firm likes to call me up with great economic forecasts... they just so happen to coincide with businesses they've been paid to promote or have their own interests in. With full disclosure, of course.
We therefore followed up Study 1 with two longitudinal training studies where participants trained in-lab for 90h on either an action or 3D-platform video game (Study 2) or on an action-role playing game
How many players of Call of Duty were habitual pot users vs the players of My Little Pony Sparkle Adventures?
Hear hear.
Although I'm thinking selling to China (I'm assuming they still have some sort of ownership stake) probably helps them dodge environmental laws.
It's a GOOD thing to prefer innocence over guilt, especially if you believe in an open society - these aren't even proper rationalizations. Even creation of things that are GOOD can be wrong. I can't build a nuclear reactor in my backyard. Even though I'm just trying to research safer designs!
I'd be the first one to jump and say let this guy go but the charges here sound legitimate.
He sold a tool that was knowingly used in the commission of a crime that did massive damage. Is he guilty? That's to be determined. Maybe he didn't know, in which case he's likely not culpable for all the charges. But that's the whole point of the trial.
No it's not - it's already illegal to knowingly sell a gun to a felon. IF Kronos was sold with the known intent to be used for research or testing purposes than Hutchins has a defense - but I kinda doubt that.

I'm not a fanboy (although you have to admit Jobs knew how to hype stuff)
I AM a fan of factual reporting - which this article isn't.

That's just what they want people to do. Track the malware files back to their uploaders.
It's a reverse honey-pot.

Next time they'll just send it out piecemeal anyway

Sounds like a great plot idea for the remake of The Thing

Wait... don't answer that...
