> > So you’re going in for a medical test and you receive something from the hospital, and it says, to receive this test, the patient should not, and then, you know, it has a list of things that the patient shouldn’t do, and it says the patient shouldn’t eat any food, drink any liquids, *and* smoke. So I’m going to assume…that you’re not a smoker. Do you feel perfectly able to eat and drink as much as you want?
That isn't happening, though. I was curious so I looked at the last paperwork I have my hands on. It said "Do not:" and then there was a bullet point list, no conjunctions. I don't think it's ambiguous, and Kagan's argument here is disingenuous.
Then there's not enough tension to break any pieces either.
1. If Device Attestation/WEI takes off, and if it takes this new time-limited support lifetime into its attestation signature, then we'll see more physically healthy devices sent to the landfill. Devices that are reasonably fine for grandpa to play Mahjong on, but Google won't let her visit Facebook because WEI can't guarantee them their ad dollars, then it'll go to the landfill. I don't want to see this waste. I want the "support lifecycle" of a product to be the FULL lifecycle, including mandating a recycling program or something of the sort.
2. I want guarantees that I can keep using an old device after its support window closes. When Google decides to sunset the Nest Doorbell, I want to own it and be able to run it myself.
1. Algebra-based "just apply the formula" d=vt, y=v_0*t+gt^2/2.
2. Calc I, where the previous formulas now made complete sense and served as mnemonics.
3. Calc-based stats, calc-based physics.
I'd recommend this to anyone.
This is like saying a catcher can't signal to a pitcher.
Information-passing is a human skill that adds a dimension to the game. Let the best win.
My last sedan would beep when you hit the lock button twice, which was great because I could lock it without being annoying but I could also use a beacon to find it in a parking lot. Now, my new RAV4 makes the tiniest little blip no matter how you lock it, it's only audible from a few feet away, so I can never find it in a parking lot.
I have two wg interfaces and I manually switch between them.
Uh, I did, in 1999. My parents would drive me to Barnes and Nobles and I sat there and read the definitive guide cover to cover.
> That assumes the price never increases for 30 years.
While the average truck owner is paying interest, I'll be earning interest, so let's call it even.
