Smart, but there is a way to force your (faceid/touchid) iphone to require your password by holding the power button to get to the "slide to power off" screen.

May I also add that I really appreciate your plain english privacy summary. The first thing that I think about when using a tool like this how my data can be used without my permission for various nefarious purposes. I do appreciate your effort to leave things client side and to save/load data from the client as well.

Crack open the set and ground the antenna? Idk, I’m tempted to find a nice model and figure out an adapter to go from eDP to the panel’s actual interface.

I don’t think that’s how it works. Police officers can and frequently do issue unlawful orders, and you have no legal obligation to comply with those unlawful orders.

Where can I find more information about the details of the interface of the modem firmware (ASIC) and the real time software?

I can’t believe so many people are not picking up your humor! XD

The housing market in the Santa Cruz mountains is exploding as people from the city are buying homes in the mountains, enabled by WFH policies.

How has ML/AI impacted the HFT scene?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can see how this would apply to a platform providing end-to-end encryption and how restricting that is a bad thing. What's to stop someone from using, e.g. PGP in an email? Isn't that outside the scope of this?

Agreed, slippery slope indeed.

come on... do you really think that's the reason google didn't go after a 10B contract? does google not like money or prefer to avoid working with the US government?? because I think they do...

see RTK GPS. uses a fixed ground station with a known position. the phase shift of the moving object’s gps signal is used to achieve centemeter-level precision.

Canonical (ubuntu) tried this.. it didn't get far for some reason. I wish it did.

Google owns hoards of personal data, including yours and mine. It’s nearly impossible to avoid, sans living life offline. Now that google has shown they are willing to share your personal information with advertisers without your permission, what do you think will happen when google becomes the arbiter of medical (and persoanal) information to health insurance companies? google will win. health insurance companies will win. individuals and families will suffer.

One would likely want to be unafraid of letting go. After a heroic dose like that, it's possible he had some things on his mind and the chemical inescapably brought these things to the forefront of his attention.

exactly. Ask the guys at Nortel.

I just want to mention how Tim Cook rightfully pushed back on government pressure to develop a tool to break into an accused terrorist’s iphone, citing the dangerous precident it would set, as well as the enevitable theft of said tool. if the NSA can’t fully secure its arsenal, who are they (government) to demand a private company to develop (and expect to secure) a tool that _everyone_ would want to get their hands on. alas, while the effort was noble, state sponsored actors have made this a moot point.

How many sugar packets can you eat before you start barfing?

agreed. interesting data point, but maybe not worthy of an entire axis.

I'm a mechatronics engineer working as an embedded software engineer. I've had to rapidly learn and teach myself a whole lot to be able to do my job effectively and correctly.

Given that, I studied many of the standard CS algos when I was brushing up for a FAANG interview. I found this gem of a guide: https://bradfieldcs.com/algos/ and after working through the examples, I could understand the behavior and underlying mechanisms of these algorithms. which completely helps when reading about articles like this!

Anyway, I think one would only be at a disadvantage if they are not seeking to continuously learn & satiate one's curiosity.

it’s kind of frustrating, cracking open old code for a change or bug fix and seeing some really gross helper function you have to use. the temptation to take 30 minutes and refactor is too irresistable sometimes.

I do agree with the basic idea of the article though. maintenance/sustaining = touch the code as little as you can (helps with diffs) greenfield = take the time to make it right for as long as you can

what a surprise!

Thank you for that explanation!

this is possible today. check out the digilent pynq ( www.pynq.io ). i just bought a dev board, i'm pumped to try a few things out.

as a noob interested in rust, what is its primary application? why do people use rust vs another language?
