That mirrors Orwell's thought when he survived a shot in the neck during the Spanish civil war - everyone kept telling him how lucky he was, but he couldn't help but think it would have been luckier to not have been shot at all!

If you say so. Here Brazil has always been of particular interest due to our close historical relationship, so nothing has changed (e.g. "Lava Jato" was also covered much more closely than corruption cases in other countries, left or right-wing).

Has that been happening? I don't follow US-based media.

Haven't we? https://theconversation.com/south-africa-is-failing-on-covid...

You can just download Filezilla to become an injured party.

Exactly! I already keep Uber as a backup, while I use a competitor (Bolt) for most rides. It's not like it's complex software that one has to master.

The argument against that is the claim that there wasn't enough volume in the last few days to cover all the previous shorts.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean they aren't portrayed as incels.

Ah, but is it? I'm not sure. One difference between these platforms is that they're very optimized for the "typical app deployment" process, whereas Ansible and such are more generic.

Just getting a simple deployment script in Ansible requires programming a bunch of steps - copying archive, verifying it, unpacking it, then atomically configuring the system to use the new version, finally cleaning it up - whereas with k8s you just let it know you want to Deploy something and it does.

Of course, that's only true if you already know k8s, but then again if you work with both toy and larger projects, chances are you'll have to, sooner or later.

You are right! My information was out of date. I just installed Firefox for Android (I generally use the Beta) and that crap was enabled by default. Sigh.

In case it's helpful, file imports to Lockwise can be enabled: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-login-data-file

Not sure what do you mean by "field edits", I can edit the username/password just fine...?

Firefox lets you manually opt-in into their analytics, yes.

Two years ago Google was fined 50 million euros by the French regulator. Last year it was 7 million by the Swedish. More will come.

Tesla, Google et all are not little startups but huge corps with plenty of cash and the ear of any politician or CEO. If they can't get a policy enacted, maybe there's a reason for it.

Apparently they just try again:

"Each chip makes its own assessment of what the car should do next. The computer compares the two assessments, and if the chips agree, the car takes the action. If the chips disagree, the car just throws away that frame of video data and tries again, Venkataramanan said."

Bugs in humans let them do that too: "The US NHTSA estimates 16,000 accidents per year in USA, when drivers intend to apply the brake but mistakenly apply the accelerator."

The discussion is about ArcGIS, not Python.

Bullying by false reporting is a common event. Sex workers are a common target for bullying. It stands to reason that bullying by claiming CP is probably not uncommon.

The Facebook PAC also funds politicians like Andy Biggs, Michael Burgess, Mike Kelly, Tom Emmer and many others, so it's not just about the user base.

Solar, wind and geothermal are definitively enough. Also, remember that the goal is not to eliminate ICE cars in 2030, just not produce any new ones.

This is not true, they have no liability even if they don't act (or pretend to act) neutrally.

And this case doesn't really have anything to do with their ToS, they removal of CP is required by law.

We do know, at least if we take the accuser's word as true:

> A support agent followed up and asked for a copy of Doe’s ID so they could prove it was him and after the teen complied, there was no response for a week, the family claims. (...) Finally on Jan. 28, Twitter replied to Doe and said they wouldn’t be taking down the material, which had already racked up over 167,000 views and 2,223 retweets, the suit states. “Thanks for reaching out. We’ve reviewed the content, and didn’t find a violation of our policies, so no action will be taken at this time,” the response reads, according to the lawsuit.

How is "all content matter out there"? From what I can tell, all we have is allegations from the accusing party.

> Why even give the benefit of the doubt? Someone reports CP, remove it, period. Of course, Twitter makes money off it...

Because it may not be CP, but a malicious reporter bullying the poster.

No, that's what courts do. People can assume nothing.

> You're still abdicating personal responsibility

No. Blame isn't indivisible. It's not even a zero-sum allocation.

Tagging promotional posts gives you a false sense of security. It's best to rely on your own judgment.

Yeah, the security policies let you do that. I think the current mechanism is called AppLocker.

Note that there may be still ways to bypass it if you're an attacker sitting at the computer, rather than a hapless user.

I'm not sure - efficiency standards push in a very specific direction.

One way to do it is to whitelist all binaries in the system, and sandbox all applications (to prevent chances of a malicious PDF/image/etc abusing a buggy application).
