That feels creepy enough to discourage people from using it. If they don’t self-regulate what they can do with that level of personal data, we’ll see laws passed in states like California and then adopted by others.

How would that work in practice?

Yet it took another year, with the sinking of HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse, for the British Navy to finally acknowledge that aircraft carriers, not destroyers, are the future.

The F-35 program isn't going anywhere, but the Pentagon and the CIA have been quietly building out drone bases across the world for years.

I don't have raw numbers, but last I checked the cost estimates of maintaining these aircraft over the long term is still projected to be cheaper than the alternative.

Some of the aircraft flown by the USAF and the US Navy have higher annual operational costs than the sticker price of those same aircraft. The F-35 is an attempt to avoid repeating the same mistakes, but obviously, easier said than done.

We spend 68 million dollars on the military per hour. An aircraft carrier group alone costs somewhere between 2-3 million per day to operate. We spend huge amounts on force projection, but argue over school funding and basic social services.

In the same boat.

The icing on the cake was they disapproved one of the ads due to the destination URL not loading.. which was in itself surprising, because everything outside of the affected region was running fine.

They're investing in solar, who knows if it'll pan out. Throwing money at a problem works to a certain degree, and there's no question they have a sizable reserve to throw around.

At the risk of being downvoted, any Pixel users enable "Hey Google" recognition on their phones only to regret it?

I'm constantly dealing with the phone interpreting commands intended for a Google Home speaker, which sometimes results in both the speaker and the phone acting on the same command. To my dismay, there's no way to disable Hey Google recognition on the phone after it's been enabled.

Perhaps someone here has run into this issue as well? It's a huge pain point for me.

The underlying fallacy is that there's such a thing as an unbiased, impartial human being in the first place.

Any others you can recommend?

Perhaps unrelated, but I have a similar problem with my hackintosh and a monitor connected via HDMI. The other monitor (same model) connected to the same GPU via DisplayPort has no such issues. Restarting the machine seems to be the only way to get the HDMI monitor to start working again.

There's still plenty of room for improvement in the attribution side of things.

Doesn't the AAMC regulate the number of nurse practitioners? My understanding was that increasing the pool of nurse practitioners would help alleviate the cost of treatment for basic ailments, but that number is capped by an administrative body.

An easy workaround for the scope issue is to set a custom service account when creating the instance (template). You can then modify the IAM roles for that service account without having to take the instance offline. Allow that service account to have full access to all APIs on the instance level, then fine-tune what's actually possible through IAM Roles.

This is a cool product. The screenshots w/ uptime monitoring is useful on its own, but I esp. like that you provide a way to specify resolutions and locations.

After looking at the features and pricing, what's still not clear to me is if this is intended to be used for monitoring only one destination URL, or if it's possible to add multiple ones.

Maybe I asked the wrong question. What sparked the debate? Was there an incident or a series of events that propelled this law into existence?

Can anyone in the know comment on what made Austin's legislators pass these laws in the first place?

How would you determine which reverse image search result is the original content creator? Just curious.

Surprised to see this in the news now. As an advertiser, we received notice from Google around July of 2015 that our flash ads will soon be disabled. Something like a month or two later the change went into effect.

The thing is, there doesn't seem to be a clear benefit to this over say, Authorize.net.

Can anyone explain the Sudan thing?

Coping mechanism for socioeconomic factors not unique to but most prominent in the US.

As someone that attended public school in NYC, all I can say is good luck finding qualified teachers and paying them enough to keep 'em from quitting.

I was thinking the same thing as I was watching it. The interaction hasn't changed as much as the form of the screen itself has become more versatile.

I'm by no means disagreeing with the point others are making in response to your comment, but I do think that sentence could have been worded better. It's stated out of context and would have been a better fit had the author mentioned that next to Cook's quote regarding equality, rather than in the middle of the statement regarding privacy. I was equally confused when I first read it.

Agreed that this alone would be insufficient but there's value in sharing this information with the patient's doctor, who could choose to ignore it if there's no other evidence.

Besides, we have to start somewhere, right? If I had the opportunity, I would release it as an open-source project for other medical professionals to improve upon. I certainly wouldn't go as far as submitting it to the app store for the reasons you mentioned, i.e. the detriment to the user.

Similar situation and opinions here. We've launched on Rails and have since invested towards SOA. One reason was the increased complexity of the frontend solution as experience became more important in the minds of the consumers. Another was the benefit of languages which previously weren't an option because the open source community wasn't as interested.

One thing I'm curious about is how the growth in SOA popularity impacts the software ecosystem around deploying and managing micro-services. Interesting space to watch, for sure.

How does Mesosphere differ from CoreOS? I haven't worked with either one, but as a casual observer it seems like there's a bit of overlap between the two platforms. Is that a fair assessment, and can anyone comment on the maturity of one solution vs the other?

And yet, nearly all of the subcultures shared a few commonalities. Some had better food than others, a few had air conditioning, and nearly all were cut off from the rest of the world.

I can easily see the motivation for some creature comforts, but the harsh circumstances of being in the middle of the desert and the lack of technology in general are what help make Burning Man so drastically different from everyday life.

While it's certainly not for the least privileged amongst us, I've met quite a few people who saved up for months in order to afford the trip.
