You must live in a warm place because if I turn off the heating when it is 0 degree celsius outside, then I wake up in the middle of the night because my face is numb.

I agree. It is harder for people to argue against the logic for manufacturing which is why I only mentioned that.

I've never heard of anyone that would even remotely consider hiring someone who got their knowledge from MIT opencourseware.

Investing is very close to being a legal ponzi scheme. If everyone invested as much as they could, people wouldn't buy enough to drive company profits like you see today, or to be the last people holding the bags when a recession occur

The answer is so obvious I find it strange that Powell is confused. Globalization. No one is going to pay workers here more when they know that workers are getting paid $2/hr in China or Cambodia.

"If you look at the money supply for the US it has a pretty constant growth rate over the last 8 decades" I'm not sure how you can come to that conclusion given it is common knowledge and fairly obvious that the Fed has been

I never said it was. I am just pointing out that the article says Github hasn't even turned a profit yet while the OP said they were profitable.

It says in the article: GitHub, which has been trying for nine months to find a new CEO and has yet to make a profit from its popular service that allows coders to share and collaborate on their work.

You will get rate limited more severely the more downvotes you get. I've also run into subreddits run by very biased moderators who will mark any stories as spam they disagree or competes with their friends. And due to the shadowban sy

All I can say is that not everyone's situation is the same. If you have a small forum where a few hundred people post a few dozen messages a day, it obviously won't be a big deal. There are situations where the amount of generated

The problem isn't to delete 1 piece of data 1 time. The problem is different people demanding thousand+ rows randomly spread out in your database deleted every day that is the problem.

That would make it compliant but there will still be efficiency problems. Databases such as Cassandra are made so that updating doesn't actually delete the old data until some time later so frequent updates will degrade performance and

Marking a field sounds to me like labeling and not zeroing it out.

"you could easily not switch to a CASCADE, but instead set delete=1 and mark every sensitive field with a special value"
255.
by codexon 8y ago
Merely setting a delete flag is not compliant with the GDPR, that's why a cascading delete is necessary. Any programmer worth their salt knows mass random deletes and updates are extremely inefficient.

I am sure most of them are consumers and don't run their own websites. The GDPR is even an issue for people running simple blogs and forums. Many public software for these don't even have the features for GDPR compliance.

And tell me, how exactly does this long list show that you won't be fined a ridiculous amount? Where does it say that if you only broke X out of Y rules that you will be fined Z less? There's absolutely NO detail on how exactl

Ok close enough? Forgive me for not remembering the exact wording of the GDPR and taking the first result that comes up on Google. https://gdpr-info.eu/art-83-gdpr/ "Infringements of the following provisions shall

Have you even read the GDPR? It literally says this. "4% of annual global turnover or €20 Million (whichever is greater)"

Why would they do 4k in fines when they can charge 20 million euro in fines?

Looks like compared to other ddos vectors it isn't that bad, because you can actually shut them down yourself unlike snmp etc... Any unsecured memcache server will also allow anyone to shut it down remotely. https://github.

Yup this article confused me as well. The current stable release 56 just can't compare to chrome. Apparently they have decided 57 is stable already but plan to make it official tomorrow. From my unscientific testing, 57 is only as fast

I think most people don't know this, but you need to download the nightly, NOT the regular version of Firefox (56 as of now) to see the speed increase. The regular Firefox is much slower than Chrome still. The nightly is now noticeably

Presumably the founders didn't sell all their shares. An IPO that goes up instead of down is much more likely to attract more investment thus driving the founder's remaining shares up.

No there isn't, that's why it won't work.

There is no research to even suggest that we are going to be able to synthesize one type of matter to another arbitrary type without expending an absurd amount of energy, making it useless to do. The idea that you could do something like th

Because resources don't last forever? Nor are they distributed among the land equally (for example oil,rare earth elements, uranium).

If you can even automate giving things away without worrying about people hacking/stealing/vandalizing your robots, then wouldn't it also be likely for you to spend all your resources on combat robots to take resources/l

Microsoft was the Facebook/Google of that time, they had the most stringent hiring requirements.

Because it still takes effort to give things away for free and as a robot owner, natural resources, land, rare skills can't be automated away.
