I'm sure you find that comment clever but really you're just being disrespectful of people who have suffered greatly at the hands of that group of ruthless bastards from Cupertino.
The editor is Beauhd, a known Apple apologist and former part-time Apple Store employee. He's not even trying to hide his bias. You can bet that a shitload of off-topic mods come from him personally, he even bragged about it a while ago.
It seems like nobody who understands and actually values privacy and security would do this.
I understand and value privacy and security, and I have no problem with storing my credit card info in my browser, as long as there's full disk encryption on the laptop in case it gets stolen.
The browser is not a concern; the world of online payments already is a gigantic farce. If you ever have the opportunity to integrate some of those payment gateways in an app you'll see how fubar it is. Besides the serious ones like paypal, Google Pay or Apple Pay, there's a shitload of smaller players with plain terrible solutions. Don't be afraid of your browser; be afraid of Square, Bluepay and others.
first take a SHA-2 hash of the password, then scrypt it.*
* In the general case of random data, hashing a hash doesn't add security. Passwords, however are not the general case.
Did you really have to end your main comment with a footnote reference, immediately followed by the footnote? That blatant abuse of footnotes creates a dark cloud of suspicion over your message, which is too bad because I was with you up to that point.
no but in the summary they already mention the website and the fact that it's the guy who runs haveibeenpwned that told disqus about the breach. Then creimer steps in and mention the site in his insightful comment.
That's like telling a joke to two retards then hearing one of them telling the joke to the other.
The url itself is already a cuntpuncher, it has "marketing-cloud" and "experience-manager" in it, as well as "platform". Well played, Adobe, almost got a bullshit bingo in the address bar alone.
Point is not that what could be run on local device. When all the data is transferred and stored to cloud, it can be monetized now and in the future in new innovative ways.
Good point. And from a global perspective, this volume of data also make huge leaps in AI possible.
PocketSphinx is a lightweight speech recognition engine, specifically tuned for handheld and mobile devices, though it works equally well on the desktop
We all know that processing is not done on the phone.
I'm not so sure about that. There's lots of fairly advanced stuff that easily runs on mobile devices, like speech-to-text. The days of "everything runs in the cloud" are over.
Quick, let's centralize even more of the internet! What could possibly go wrong?

I alone probably have 100 yahoo accounts full of junk mail
Supposing that you've been doing that since the launch of Yahoo Mail, that means you created an account once every 2 or 3 months for 20 years. That's quite a commitment and a time-consuming process.
Maybe your time is worth nothing but for $0.50 / month you can get cloud antispam from heluna, or for $5/month you can let Office365 or G Suite deal with that.
All the previous FCC chairman have worked for ISP and telcos. There is nothing special or new about this guy.
Also I think it's relevant to show that Beauhd is in the pocket of Apple and only started posting about Net Neutrality since Apple came out against it, so what's the problem?
It has come to a point where we need AI to decipher careless garbage inserted into carelessly designed systems. Basically Skynet will be right to get rid of people.
I work daily with credit reports and I will tell you this; even as a legitimate customer of credit agencies we are struggling to use their data. It's basically garbage.
You would think they have a carefully crafted database with data integrity up the pooper, but in fact it feels more like they're having nonchalant clerks punch in notepad a boatload of data collected from forms submitted by gas station attendants.
There's truncated fields, overlapping codes, conflicting date formats, unclear buckets with meaningless labels. Sometimes the street address and street name are in the same field, sometimes the creditor name and the amounts are in the same field but their phone number and area code are in two different fields. I've seen first name and last name concatenated in the first name field (with no space), or different spelling for the same financial institution appearing twice in the same customer report.
So don't worry too much. Your credit file is basically "encrypted" by sheer indifference and lack of concern for data quality.
tell them you only want information shared with experian and transunion until further notice
Here's the thing. Whenever you find yourself in a situation where someone has to check your credit, you're on the wrong side of the table to make demands.
Anyways both of those agencies you mention are as crooked and incompetent as equifax. They both got caught in the same scandal of selling people fake credit scores while giving a different one to lenders.
Bottlenecks in a production line are extremely difficult to address. There's been tons of excellent books about it (such as The Goal) but it remains a major issue in companies with a normal growth so it's not surprising to see Tesla struggling with that given their insane expansion pace.
I spent years in the manufacturing world and countless times I've seen stuff like HR authorizing crazy overtime in the weeks following a layoff or plant managers scrambling to rent containers to store surplus of a part that was backorder the week before. You got JIT? Next thing you know Texas is blown away and gas prices skyrocket, making parts more expensive to get delivered. You decide to build up inventory? Real estate prices go up and you end up paying top dollar for low quality warehouses.
Supply chain, project management and interest rates: all examples of things that are too complex for the human mind to fully comprehend.

I use it to run VAG-COM software, which is a complete Audi/VW scan tool emulator which depends on an expensive cable
Does that VAG-Cunt software come out of the box with the option to cheat emission tests, or was it part of a patch?
Alas, but not on my 2009 iMac which is capped at El Capitan. I can not run XCode 9 nor can I run Swift 4.
So, my iOS app dev days are limited until I can afford to buy new hardware - likely a new iMac.
Is it Stockholm syndrome or battered wife syndrome?

It's also annoying if you close your Google account and those sites are tied to it.

I had to look up Livefyre because I'm a social media retard, and I almost drowned in my gulp of mountain dew when I saw this on their website:
Engage people with the voices they trust. Their own.

Wait what? Where do you get this idea?
Maybe he got it from people who semi-doublequote quotes
More proof that Apple products are bloated
Piss off apk. Or at least keep stop cross-polluting Slashdot with your pathetic little flame wars.
the editor who only uses dubious Chinese sources to create another Apple freakout.
you mean the fanbois who accuse Chinese sources of being dubious because they can't accept that Apple is selling defective devices?

Yeah I agree that Sphinx is not that great. My point was merely that it *can* be done on the device.
It's nothing new.

I highly doubt 3B humans have ever signed up an account with Yahoo.
They said 3B accounts, not 3B people. Nobody is claiming that these are unique individuals.
I confess that I had 2 Yahoo accounts for a while, and slazzy confessed that he had 100. So the real number is at best 2,999,999,899 people.
