to add clarity (and my $0.027) It is *absolutely* the developer's responsibility, but *not* his fault.
The software in question really shouldn't do something this drastic without a second window saying "This will erase files from disk. Are you sure you intend to do this?"
Yes, it is. I chose to have children because (my now ex wife) said the doctor said she couldn't have kids (she didn't lie about this AFAIK). Now, I "did the right thing" and we got married, etc. had another kid.
I accept the life I have, and I love my kids, but yeah, AMs are a bitch with school. Drop your kid off at 7:45 (because that 15 min seriously is the difference to making it to work on-time or not) and the school has the worlds biggest shit fit.
I, fortunately, had a single mom as a boss when I started here, so she totally understood my plight. My start time was adjusted and now my new manager is just leaving it as is.
Here's the rub: many people with kids *don't* get a manager that understands, and as a result are stuck either having work issues or whatnot, or taking a less lucrative job for its flexibility. It's a hobson's choice.
Additionally, I have all my friends give me their phones while they go to a local movie, and I take all of "us" on the circuit to get paid. Next week another friend has all the phones and I'm at the movie...
I drink 2-3 16Oz rockstars/day + some heavily caffeinated tea. That's down from up to 6 rockstars + coffee. Incidentally, I cut over to rockstars as I was cutting out other stimulants.
A huge amount of the data processing going on is not very latency sensitive once the stream starts, even if jitter sensitive (e.g. Netflix movie). If they court the market for "nearline" compute at a cost that is highly competitive to the national colo server farms (colo in this case meaning DC resident in-country) then I could see them doing quite well.
As others have noted, Fiber is there, as is foundation.
My concern would be actual physical access to personnel, particularly vendor support, though the latter could be mitigated by the vendor simply storing spares on-site, but not accessible to the DC until activated, at which time the failing unit would be taken off-line and shipped slow-boat back to the vendor.
There is already some level of precedent for this where Intel allows the largest consumers to pick the sku of the CPU *after* it's already on the motherboard, but while still on the assembly line. Fuse blows and sku is locked in. They then pay Intel the price based on the counts. This lets the likes of Dell react much faster to demand.
Timely... I left my truck unlocked last night and it was burgled. Still filed a police report, don't expect anything to be done about it.
Now as to the topic at hand: I see a difference between those who pose and have those shots later leaked (by/for any one/reason) and those who really are in the unknowing position of a hidden camera.
The former, yes "don't pose nude" is fair advice, especially seeing as this is a *known* problem (revenge porn sites in general). Yes it smacks of victim blaming, but it also is the real-world no SJW's allowed advice that makes the most sense.
In the case of the latter... I think that the victim should have an hour in a locked room with whatever they wish at their disposal and the perp restrained in whatever fashion the victim desires.
Define acceptable. If you mean prime mover cost recovery in one lifetime? Then I agree, no we're not.
Of course Apollo costs were mind blowing too, so if you accept that prime mover costs are not required to be repaid, and will be sponged up by government then I think we could get there.
Mind, this is pie in the sky thinking, as there is *NO* way our current legislative bodies would fund something like this.
10x10 private offices were often places where people had some privacy in which to take micro breaks while their brain churned on an issue in the background.
Headphones don't work. Even good ones let enough sound in that you can hear conversations, if you turn up the volume enough sound leaks out that your co-workers will complain about your music selections.
I am currently in an office that *just* went open plan... Support folks like it because they can communicate easily. Devs... not so much, and now there are additional issues. Case in point, I put on my headphones so I can exclude other sounds, unfortunately my office mates can hear my music and it annoys them, so I can't actually listen to my music while I code. Instant 30-70% hit on productivity, since now I hear their conversations and my brain is dragged away from its focus.
We are ridiculously far from having the technology to mine in space on an economically meaningful scale much less the ability to turn mined minerals into useful products. Not saying it will never happen nor am I saying it's a bad idea but we are a looooong way from this being a meaningful thing to worry about.
I respectfully disagree. I think technologically we are much closer than anyone realizes. Socioeconomically however... we're aeons away. If we had an Apollo program level of push we could be there in a decade, two tops. Thing is, no private enterprise has the capitol to do it, even if there is a huge ROI, the prime mover investment is simply too big to do.
This got me to thinking... If you ported the entire BlueGene/L to the phone would it actually outperform the supercomputer, or is there some other factor that would end up being a limiting factor besides the raw FLOPS?
Pretty sure performance/watt would be so far off the scale that it wouldn't be considered the same ballpark, but I wonder about the actual top speed.
I'm feeling that now. nearly 20 years at my prior employer and I'm now 41 and "the new guy" I've got a year under my belt here now and as such feel decently good about my prospects moving forward... but, yeah, that first month on the market after the two decades in my little caged tower was scary as fuck.

I did, and I've had the other "I'm a family guy, see I have kids too" boss that has no actual parenting responsibility.
My current job is $35K/yr lower than my last one, and worth it, just because of this difference.
I like this plan, but the SRAM itself should still be encrypted with the device key HMAC'd with some other identifier as well (PIN ideally).
Yes, it is.

indeed it is.
Specifically because I don't need to kill my pancreas in addition to my liver...
Additionally, I have all my friends give me their phones while they go to a local movie, and I take all of "us" on the circuit to get paid. Next week another friend has all the phones and I'm at the movie...
I'll host them.
No problem. I only accept Bitcoin and they're likely to not like my data retention and uptime policies though...
*heh*
"I'm just a regular joe with a regular job, I'm your average white suburbanite slob..."
Well I thought it came with Oompa Loompas...
I want my money back.

That hour is exempt from prosecution.

They're "noise cancelling" knockoffs that the company bought to try and mollify us as to the noise levels...

TL;DR:
Intel should have kept StrongARM.
This got me to thinking...

Pretty sure performance/watt would be so far off the scale that it wouldn't be considered the same ballpark, but I wonder about the actual top speed.
Yes, but that's a substantial minority...
I'm feeling that now.

isn't that the point of childhood? to discover what interests you?
the reason for getting the resting rate is just to have something to count down to from the active rate.
