So the screen can ask for the programming data to be entered or loaded from a USB stick given to you when you buy the vehicle. There’s no reason this can only be done with a proprietary tool you often can’t get legally at all and have to re

I said this in jest as a reaction to what post-tax SWE salaries in Europe top out at, all while the same companies have no problem burning insane money on vendors. There is zero incentive to do good work as an employee as it won't be c

Until the sensor itself has a microcontroller and does a cryptographic handshake with the other side before it's allowed to work, for "security" reasons obviously.

There's no reason technology has to be user-hostile. You can still have an ECU and screens and everything. When it breaks the screen can be used to tell you exactly which sensor input is out of range. There's no reason parts need

A system like this could actually work as long as every takedown request involves posting a significant bond into a holding account and where the publisher can challenge the block and claim the bond if the block is ruled illegal. This achie

Nothing prevents anyone from sending in a fake notice anonymously, which will still force any provider to take down your content until challenged.

And they get exactly what they pay for. There's zero reason for a competent professional to stick around with that kind of pay any longer than strictly necessary (aka until their own gig or freelancing takes off).

Not just governments, that same kind of greed exists in private companies too. The only way to make good money while being an employee is to have your buddy spin up a "vendor" offering overpriced bullshit and shill it within your

Well the idea is that you determine the intention of the “IP issue” and act accordingly: If there is an actual IP issue then even waiting after you’re out of the company will not resolve said IP issue. If you’re using your employer’s IP the

Why not publish it anonymously? If there's actual employer IP in there then just leaving said employer wouldn't magically clear it. If there isn't and you're just trying to avoid red tape, then publishing it anonymously

We need a legal precedent that enshrines adversarial interoperability as legal so that we can have a competitive market of BlemFlamApis with no risks of being sued.

I think we just need better platforms for enterprise procurement. The issue is that currently you either publish as free & open-source and get tons of traction and usage but little funding, or you publish as paid and get no traction. Th

Disagreed. You can absolutely do all analytics, personalization and marketing in-house on your properties. You only need data sharing if you want to influence advertising on other properties or if you display others' ads on yours.

It's a shame this is downvoted. It doesn't make it right, but it is true. Until the regulation actually gets enforced so that everyone is on a level playing field and does not do such things, you will be at a disadvantage if you&#
