Can you clarify how that's related?

Good. Lots of innocent people are pressured into bullshit plea deals under the threat that they'll be charged for some bigger chrime that the prosecutor doesn't actually have the evidence to prove. If the prosecution has the goods

This is a weird hill to die on. Plenty of recalls have been issued for what amounts to software updates, that required driving it back to the dealership. I don't see why it should suddenly be called something else because the car has a

Serious question... What does this actually free you from? Is the occasional adjustment to keep in your lane that much? It's not like cruise control where after holding my foot in the same position for hours my ankle is damn near locke

I have no idea if this is true or not, but I'll note that isn't Apple saying that. It's a random user on an Apple forum.

Look I think Beeper Mini and the whole thing is silly, but no, Android users are not refusing to use the apps available for their phones. iMessage is not available for Android.

That doesn't say anything about without a warrant. Remember, Google required a judge to sign an order. Until this policy change Apple did not.

by Volundr 3y ago
Except Google requires an order from a judge, and Apple did not. No one is arguing that the courts can't force Apple or Google to turn over data, but apparently Apple guidelines did not actually require a judge to issue the order.

by Volundr 3y ago
So what has changed that they can require a judges order now and couldn't before? Why was Google apparently able to require a judges order before but Apple couldn't?

In short, the issue is that the manager didn't keep to the schedule. If they had done it at the proper time HR would have been involved and we would have gotten our notification. Instead the damage was done hours before this was schedu

Don't underestimate a dumb managers influence on this. Back when I was running an orgs IT we had a similar incident when we fired an employee. HR had given us the heads up when it would happen, and we had someone standing by to kill th

This is a frustration for me as well. Here in Boise, I've got CenturyLink 80/40, and that was a sweetheart deal gained by going through our CenturyLink Rep at work (my neighbors get half that). Technically I can get "up to a

Really? How much less? I'm far from convinced that if you sum up the sheer volume of noises heard, as well the other neurological inputs that goes into learning to speak (ex proprioception) you'd come out with a lesser number than

Hopefully someone will chime in with their recommended setup for vim. I think there is pretty mature tooling available, but I'm not immediately familiar with it, so my advice there would be no better than Google. Calva is a solid choic

If you want a long running calculation to not block the REPL you'd need to use a future, or some other method to get it off the REPL thread. I don't remember what your describing being a feature of SLIME, but it's been 10+ ye

In my case, Emacs+clojure-mode+cider. I'm not sure I recommend learning Emacs at the same time as Clojure though. I usually recommend new users look to Cursive(for IntelliJ) or Calva (vscode) depending on what they are most comfortable

Sure the breadth is (maybe) smaller, but the question is volume. Babies get years of people talking around them, as well as data from their own muscles and vocalizations fed back to them. Is the volume they have consumed to the point the be

I stand corrected on the first. As usual, people's creativity for doing awful things exceeds my imagination, and, on reflection, I can think of a few other historical programs that indeed should be called genocidal, but one would be ha
