I don't relax that much.:) It's more about reducing overall stress while driving. I was a pilot in the Navy, so I'm used to automation helping me pilot/drive a vehicle. If you understand the system and it's capabilities and limitations, it can be used at the appropriate times.
1. If I have to give the car my full attention, why don't I just drive the damn thing?
Drive one, then you'll understand. All my car has is adaptive cruise control. It reduces stress while driving significantly. Even just being able to rest your foot helps. I'll never buy another car without it.
I don't think you understand violence, nor how it influences your life. It's just as much a part of your life as sex. Likely, more so. All property rights are rooted in violence. Do you own anything?
I read that as: our customers don't have a problem with porn, but these agenda based fanatics are making a big deal, so we have to get out in front of it.
Seems to me that would be easier to do if Google and Amazon were tracking mouse movements. I'm very anti-tracking, I write Android apps that are designed to prevent Google from tracking data and meta-data. But this, at least, seems like a (possibly?) valid use. A large dataset of mouse movements across the population (when combined with the other things Google tracks about us) could even verify or debunk the whole theory. I, at least, would prefer for Google to tell me I might need to see a doctor, when compared to telling me what I ought to buy today.
I think you miss the point. The point is employers wouldn't be able to hire foreigners cheaper if it wasn't for H1B. If it was a free market, those foreigners would be more expensive than local talent.
Am I the only one that sees the surveillance issues? Police won't even have to pull you over any more. They won't even need patrol cars to catch you. Just send the signal to force your car to drive to the nearest arrest depot. Absolutely, I think self driving cars will be safer, but the gov is shitting itself to get them into production, cause they will allow significantly more control over the population. Am I the last conspiracy theory nut left?:)
I've been there. They don't stay on the line. They transfer you to someone new every 4 hours. And they usually helped not one bit, and certainly not enough to justify the costs. It was almost always our in house experts that solved our problems. Or Redhat. For 200k, you can definitely find someone better than the Oracle support line to help.
This has got to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard all week. The idea that the machines we could get as kids 35 years ago (I was one of those kids) were more 'interesting' doesn't make any sense to me. The level of effort required back then to get the machine to do anything interesting was astronomically higher. Today, it's literally 30 minutes from deciding to do it, to having code you built yourself running on your (Android) phone (assuming you've already got a PC and an internet connection, of course, but that's a pretty low bar today). Download Android Studio and an example, push to your phone. Then, the internet alone provides all the resources a kid would need to learn to write their own functionality. A whole universe of possibility at their fingertips. It isn't the machine that makes them want to do it. It's curiosity and drive and wonder. More machines, and different types equals more ways to tweak that curiosity. More chances to light that fire.
Agreed. Not using an open source license, cause I don't know enough about all the different licenses (yet). But, here is the source for the server side. Doesn't prove all my claims, but does show no ip logging and no PII on the server. I'll have to put the app up too, to prove I'm doing end to end encryption between devices.
This is the code I'm running in prod now (minus a couple of server specific redactions). It's quite simple, I think.

This. We've got too much to lose to fight with guns. Fight with technology.
(shameless plug) I just started a company to build encrypted Android communication apps that don't leak meta-data, and I don't store PII anywhere. First one is called Mom Says.
Slashdot Mirror
Remember Insurance companies can jack up the rates on Non-self-driving self-driving cars.
But they won't, because those cars are safer than human driven cars, and they don't have an agenda, just statistics.
Then the Owners will demand it be disabled
I demand that you disable this thing because I don't have the willpower not to turn it on.

I don't doubt it. Why would someone who uses short, simple passwords be using a password manager in the first place?

I define censorship as anti-social. Maybe you should go live in the woods, since you're so afraid of naked people.

Alert! 12 year old commenting. Only children think the world will be safe if only their parents are allowed to protect them.

Late 2001?
No. It is much less painful. Hence the proliferation.

Touché.
Maybe you missed the part where he said 'allows'? Maybe your mind is made up?
That warrant is a meaningless piece of paper too. It's the guns they bring along that get them in your house.

No. I've been too chickenshit to show my code to the world. But If people are actually interested, I'll clean it up and put it on github.
