Now car manufacturers are following the lead of traditional software companies: They are hiring hackers to help improve the security of their car systems.
Think about that the next time you’re at a dealership, tempted by the model with the best Wi-Fi.
What is this nonsense?! Smart IoT-clouding everything is the way of the future! I have to be able to dispense ice from my fridge with an app!
To put this less passionately, digging up dirt on people results in power. The dirt is a commodity. The most valuable kind, worth leverage, clout, influence, control. From this perspective, setting aside thoughts of morality and malice, it's quite the reasonable thing to do.
Which is another way of saying, a very credible thing to expect. Whatever is "just good business." can be considered increasingly certain at higher scales.
Doublepost to provide inconsequential concessions:
- Physiology "presents itself" in an arrangement that's adapted for, beyond other design, the prioritization of what is objectively most central to reproducing a species and sustaining genetic diversity. It's ubiquitous because like most adaptations, it follows the one-way road of optimization. Oops, metaphored again.
- Expendability scenarios will present themselves in circumstances softer than extinction. Regardless of what cultures decided was appropriate in the past, or decides tomorrow, the response is asymmetric today. I won't express an opinion on whether the asymmetry is right or wrong, but equality advocates have theirs predetermined. By definition.
Males are also considered expendable. I'm not whining (as in, I'm just observing the fact), but it's expected that males get the last lifeboat, if any. Which is kinda the correct answer in a survival situation, biology says protect the more-valuable factories, the half that has the hatcheries.
I imagine it's rare for the effect to surface plainly - leaping in front of bullets is for movies. But it does skew expectations less consciously. So for anyone who applies their time after equality, it reasons that it belongs on the checklist.
Personally, I'd expect to see signs on every office, library, store, business, government building, restaurant, laundromat, bowling alley, etc etc etc that say "NO SHIRT NO SHOES NO LEPERS"
One thing that bugs me about these is that people seem to get the unconscious takeaway that the guy gets off scott free. That he walks away without consequence for his words. And they think to themselves (pretty reasonably) "that's unacceptable!" and even "we need to make the law more interpretable and arbitrary!"
But keep in mind that (like other behavior that isn't OMG FORBIDDEN BY FEDERAL LAW) pissing off employers, peers, friends/enemies, etc. will most certainly indeed have consequences. Society has it's own control effects without having to indulge (and fund) the sUe-S-A hype.
I still feel like harmonic resonance might lead to some applicable tool, if only as a novelty. BRB, calling dibs on thoughtproperty. Er, "filing a patent".
The real scotsmen make credit cards and commercials aimed at said dreamers who didn't expect it'd be "tough" to compete with the industry giants, who allow you to exist as a mercy and could crush you with but a dozen lawyer hours.
GP is talking about the giants, not the wannabes. We proles sometimes show loyalty to you posers.

I hate this phrase. I've never read Hitchhiker's Guide (yet) but yeah, let's stick that opt out in a basement. In Madagascar.
More autonomous nerves, sure. A deliberate reaction is typically at least 300-400ms for a conscious response, for a simple action from alert condition. Anything conditional/decision-making, (if red, elif green) and it goes up.
But the performance of stuff can be affected by less. You can notice irregularity in, say, tempo or timed actions at the 10ms level.
It may not necessarily affect surgical behaviors, but consider something like the all that calculus your brain does when it wants to catch a frisbee or swing a bat at a ball.
Treat your grunts like shit and they walk out. That may seem fine if you're a call center, but maybe think twice when the grunts are handling sensitive information? Like the minutiae and specifics of your semisecret propaganda machine that wants to be somewhat discrete and less-known?
No, go ahead and treat them like shit, it's not like burning those bridges and begging for disloyalty could ever come back to bite you in the
You don't need conspiracies to shut down a place, ISPs do it all the time. You can also jank up the barriers to entry, authorization, compliance, certification, auditing, what have you. Healthcare does it all the time so only $500 thermometers are allowed in the system.
Unrefined method (see A) will stay unrefined. Us big boys will develop it, or if owned, will eventually buy what you (by design) can't leverage.
This. Increasingly specialized knowledge on a subject will generally have diminishing returns on daily relevance, on general useful effects outside career. So a quick, cursory depth of all of humanity's most common/relevant fields is standard issue.
A surface level of skill will give you familiarity and occasionally some useful thinking/tools. Like all the basic courses in gen ed. I can't do real biology but I can look at something and better guess at how it breaths, moves, what it eats, fears...
I was going to make an observation about how we immediately launch into solutions. We come running with potential fixes (LOL SO EASY) then flame each other about how they won't work. Standard internet frenzy (accept it, casuals and SJWs) aside, we're really being quite constructive. It's the sort of problem that, even uninvited, we leap at the chance to chew on. It's behavior we've seen at/. before.
> the opening up of my system up of my system to all sorts of tracking
This is a thorn in my side beyond the PaypalDonate? pleading out there.
Time and again I'm quite willing to spare a dollar or ten on a product or service, or even simply hand it out, but I don't have a means. I'm not signing up for $stupidshit or supporting $IoTcloudshit service or announcing the details of my private transaction to every fucking ear that wants to harvest it for a penny.
I'll probably resort to cash-bought prepaid cards. With bills not obtained from a bank/ATM, if I'm in the mood to act on sheer fucking principle.. Or hell, maybe bitcoins will catch on.

That would be irresponsible, bloodthirsty, and immoral. Both of you.
Still worth it, tenfold. When can you start?
Every day you eat slimy, endless snot and there's nothing you can about it.
That's probably one of the milder items in the "your whiny criteria will qualify you as disgusting" backpack.

That's the lawyers. But the injured parties probably got some of their compensation. Maybe even all.
Maybe. It's the Definitelys who will cheer.
What's the word for 1000% markup?
Not saying either end of the stick is "right".
If (benefit of doubt) Dice is somehow bullshit, who do you think needs to know? A: Dice users.

Put your services behind the subscription fee, then.
Deliberately giving it to public access then whining when it's accessed is bullshit.
