The cookie law has exemptions for cookies that are there for technical reasons. For example, your locale, and which cookies you agreed to. The browser cannot differentiate first party cookies that are technical or for tracking.

Perhaps I am too new to back-end development, but what strikes me in this article is the misconception that code-first is going to give you a bad DB schema, and that migrations will loose data. I think part of it could be blamed on the tool

France doesn't have any coal mining anymore, it was totally stopped in 2004 according to Wikipedia (French-only page). You can still see a lot of former "mining cities" (easily recognizable because of naming quirks and the di

I don't think the GP meant "consume" as eating food. Consume here means non-essential needs such as always buying latest gadget (while previous one still works), changing your car early for no good reason (less than a few yea

GDPR impose a few things to do as soon as you have a single PII, as well as doing this a certain way (opt-out are a no-go, you must be able to prove consent, you probably need a DPO and a DPA), and things that were just not done in practice

Other laws you had to comply with where the ones the GDPR is replacing. Several EU country had very similar law. Idon't know about the fines about such laws though, since they were not enforced. Enforcement is what's going to matt

I like the name of "load bearing mac minis". Reading that I wonder how much mac minis are used by actual user vs used headless in offices for various purpose. There is one such mac mini in my office (named "buildbot", be

Of course Instapaper shouldn't take advise from me, a random stranger online, but from lawyers. But from my shoes (someone that run a business in the EU, is not compliant right now and is talking to a lawyer), Instapaper decision is a

I can't, since I'm pretty sure it's not in the legislation. The law is enforced by humans, not robots, and those persons have a culture and habits. Of course I could be wrong and they could start enforcing heavily on everyone

Shutting down is not the better alternative because you still are breaking the law, as siblings explained. Working into getting compliant and have a paper trail to demonstrate how you are progressing in case of control is the only realistic

Actual quote of the GDPR: (171) Directive 95/46/EC should be repealed by this Regulation. Processing already under way on the date of application of this Regulation should be brought into conformity with this Regulation wi

Obviously, IANAL, but my company talked to a few over the past week. This move is, in my opinion, a bad read on the odds and European culture. First, culture. The goal (at least in France, but that's probably the same in other countrie

Do you know if they need a solid business case even if it is optional? For example, any idea if an optional "locate your device" feature would get shot down?

GDPR doesn't regulate anonymous data. Unless you put PII in your analytics (not the default, and you really shouldn't) you won't have a problem. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure part of Google Analytics response to G

I can see land is actively used for farming, which means it's probably not contamined anymore. I never saw any of the "forbidden" signs anywhere on the other hand. Which doesn't mean it's not a thing, I don't p

It's important to keep in mind most of those zones are not a No Man's land anymore. I often go around Lens, Béthune and Arras (family live in that area), and never heard about or seen anything like pictured in the article, except

I'm going to be honest: I have no clue about social. I operate in socio-medical domain, we don't share by default. We are mostly fine with the spirit of the GDPR, it's the work we have to do to follow it to the letter which i

I'll point out which question gives me nightmares, as the founder of a EU startup: - the requirement to have a DPO. Based on the requirements for the DPO, no one in the company can fill the role (conflict of interest), so we must hire

On my personal dedicated server, I don't have any kind of "modern" things, I do everything the old way, so I do log manually. It's a feature, it's a way for me to learn old-school sysadmin (and I have so little thin

Sure, let's say you have an organization, in which you have users and devices, so users and devices have a nullable FK to organization. Also, a device can be linked to a user, so a device has a nullable FK to a user. Now, when a device

One thing that saved my bacon is to write scripts that test production data is valid (for the few things that cannot be enforced by the DB, at least not easily). Invariably, those scripts found invalid data, which pointed to hard to spot bu

From what you asked, I can deduce you work in an environment where performance is important. For my startup (and I'd say at least a non-negligible number of companies), half of what you ask is just not important. Background to read wha

There is a real difference between a properly maintained, up-to-date project that happened to be started four years ago, and a project that was started four years ago, has never seen any dependencies update (not even security fixes), and is

The article doesn't clearly says the problem, but there is a problem, and it's none of what you said (although the article does talk a bit about repairability). The problem, in iOS (but also happens on Android, to a lesser extent)

If the Refresh Tokens are leaked, you revoke them and the user has to re-authenticate. It's crucial that clients are able to respond to their refresh tokens being revoked. The good thing is that it is a standard workflow, contrary to A

Proof of Stake (PoS) and Proof of Capacity (PoC) exist and are actually deployed for quite a while now. They don't consume lots of electricity and can be runned on cheap hardware. I run 2 PoS wallets on one of my computers. It doesn&#x

Business accounts already have payed support built-in, and are able to contact a human (I know because I did). Why you'd use gmail professionnaly without a business account is beyond me.

Do you work from home? If you do, consider going somewhere else to work, and make that place your workplace. Coworking spaces are especially good because you'll be around people working all day, which will stimulate you to work too, wi

The author says so explicitely in the conclusion "The biggest advantage, like most tech debt payments, will come down the road.". It's only a bizarre decision if you approach it exclusively from a short-term view.
