Thanks for the insight, but in my defence, giving someone an expired drug is still dangerous if that people need it to live, don't you think? probably the drug is ineffective or is not strong enough for the people required dosage. I assure you that if someone start giving a lot of people expired drugs, he or she will go to jail, it is because it is dangerous, people can get harmed receiving something ineffective
I can use medicine longer than is safe (expired) and kill myself and a lot of people. Do you propose to embed DRM on it? There is no need for remote capabilities for that, just add a timer and disable it after their secure time of life. The problem with this case is not only the remote capabilities, but that they don't sell you a battery, they rent it to you, not a problem they give you an option to buy one or others are able to provide the same rental service and by definition of DRM I am pretty sure this will be something like "only Renault can provide that service"
Javascript isn't rocket science to use. You've just got to put in the effort to read a couple books to understand that it requires different design strategies from other OO languages. The scoping, prototypes, and events are actually really nice if you bother to learn how to use them properly.
I don't hate JavaScript, but I wish it started to have a real and modern API. DOM objects and a few basic types is not constructive, everyone is adding external libraries to do simple things, using different libraries so you don't have a base API to learn. I am not talking DOM manipulation level APIs like jQuery, but about a good collections, async, crypto, etc APIs. JavaScript core available APIs is a mix of bad basic types (like only the Number type for every numeric value) and HTML spec APIs every one of them with their own conventions
While many of the critics of Dart continue to bash it, it is amazing how they like a lot C compilers outputting JavaScript, What is wrong about dart2js that is treated bad in comparison to emscripten and similar tools? Probably they should explain better that they oppose to a new VM (opposing at the same time to NaCl), but a new language with a transpiler, Why different treatments to different compilers that do the same?
Why not? when an institution is failing in their duty because of bad management, corruption, whatever, it is the time for the good people to be part of it. Things don't get fixed by not participating.
I have seen malware compromised sites with code that hides from GoogleBot User Agent and Google ips, so being flagged as safe from Google is not a sign your site is safe for your visitors
How do you think someone will write a relatively good web game without some kind of programming language API for sound?, Web Audio API is more than simple play and stop calls
Forget about adding complex UI software to a car, give me MirrorLink and some standard car APIs over that link, or ssomethin. You car manufacturers don't know about user and internet facing better
Can not be created a simple USB protocol that host devices use to identify it, ignoring the standard IDs? I believe mass storage devices are not identified by ids, so a new protocol called "Open Hardware Identification" can be tried when specific a USB ID is found, if successful, then identify it as the correct device, if not, use the Forum tables (if they decide to give somebody the specific ID open hardware settles). This at least can help with proper identification on FLOSS OSs that can implement this protocol handshake, proprietary OSs are screwed because they will use what the Forum says and never implement the "Open Hardware Identification" protocol
Go to the applications settings and disable every Google application, you can even disable the almighty (a lot of permissions and autoupdateable) Google Services applications
The skill required to successfully and economically blend source code into a commercially viable product is relatively scarce. It should not be done directly at government expense
That is why you pay people like Red Hat, Suse, and many other OSS providers, and you know what Oracle, it is a lot cheaper than what you provide
The 3.5mm jack on the controller. I am the owner of the Sony Pulse Elite headset, I bought it because it is a very good device. The feature that I like the most is that you can plug it on a USB port (dumb one, only for power) and plug a standard 3.5mm jack with stereo sound and microphone connection and the USB dongle will wireless stream it. I am not buying the PS4 on the first months, but if I could, I probably use that feature until the USB audio support is added on the promised firmware update
And that is something they should have been done always, not only for security reasons, but optimizations. I am tired, for example, to see that connections from a South America subsidiary of Telefónica, in order to access another network on the same country, jumps to Spain, thne USA, then go back to the source country, awful
Because people would cry with petitions like "Give me my Ctrl + Alt + Delete back!, don't change things that works!" and everything your hear when someone try to do something different
Yes, I want ChromeBoxes too, not for home use but enterprise. Secure machines that can't be hacked by simple malware because everything is cryptographically signed. You have problems, you restore it, no local state. All your business applications running on web servers or via remote desktop VMs for the legacy ones
and bicycles are healthy, and good with the environment. If more people use bicycles the world can become a better place. Yes, the analogy is a good one

then add the logic for that, no need to be remote triggered

Initial versions generanted big JavaScript files using dart2js, there have been a lot of work optimizing that

Java 8, Unsigned Integer Arithmetic API, not an unsigned type but helps doing integer arithmetic using signed types
You could "secure" it by setting a registry key forcing validation with the domain controller, but as you say that was easy to bypass too
