You mean you don't just go read the man page for every bash command and intuitively understand it? Sorry for the sarcasm, I just feel your pain. Learning even basic things in bash has been slow for me too. I love it. I prefer it to GUI

It's happening because the USA has declared it illegal for any website to knowingly host any content that might be illegal. As such they're pulling down anything and everything that might be even possibly illegal.

Now where is the reddit alternative?

If you're deleting Facebook and not getting rid of messenger you're missing the point. Messenger is more invasive in many ways, even if it doesn't track your web activity as much.

No. Nothing but scraps of stories handed down and embellished over the millennia. We have no objective measures at all.

I feel like that's the answer to reddit it many ways too. Reddit will go the way of Facebook within 5 years I suspect and self hosted federated subreddits are the logical increment. I bet someone is working on it already.

And WhatsApp is Facebook. It's kinda a bad deal all 'round.

Permissions existed, absolutely. They were just "Accepted when installed" type permissions rather than "Hey, would you kindly grant me access to all of your data" type permissions.

I know they exposed identifiers in friends lists as well, long into 2013 as I recall. I remember hanging out with friends and grabbing the Inspect Source HTML from their little "Friends tile" that had a ranked list of Identifiers

That's about the only guarantee though. Some 'Netflix Originals' are purchased from other broadcasting companies, there's wildly inconsistent quality across then... I love Netflix and all but the little name in the corne

I messed up. I saw their Q4 revenue statement and read the year end 40B as the Q4 revenue. My bad.

Last I saw there were over 1 million accounts distributed by CA. Even assuming they were only distributed 3 months (unlikely) and there were only 1 million accounts (also unlikely) the maximum fine is: 1000x1000000x90 = 90 billion dollars.

A very interesting article that is yet another reason to update your phones. Shame that vendors don't care to support security updates.

The original author shouldn't have done linear calculations but exponential. That said: the longer that it takes to get that exponential; the more there is in the atmosphere. I wonder how those curves compare to linear and where break

And how many times has this happened before? Musk plays the edge of these things. If it wasn't way too ambitious it doesn't seem like he'd do it.

It's ID cards, so it's going to have a chip or sensor that isn't powered: it'll simply grab current geolocation on swipe. It also wouldn't be usable off campus for anything the school wasn't providing. Also sin

I dig it. What are you guys looking for in dev involvement? How casual can I be and still potentially contribute? I'm an Android dev who has been looking at sinking his teeth into kotlin for a bit now.

The Kate sounds a lot better than the Nick (who has that robotic gravel to his voice) but I think that there is some question as to how much better would it actually be with more data: If trained on longer samples does it start to hallucina

"May have caused" is disingenuous ass covering at best. They soft bricked every single headset worldwide. "Oopsie we may have caused you inconvenience" vs "We're sorry for the damage"

I mean you'd think with the resources available at Facebook they would've: 1. Automated the certificate process to auto-renew at least a year before expiry. 2. Have counter-signatures 3. Have anyone at all use any sort of calen

I was actually just reflecting last week on Nintendo's approach to the console wars and how good of an idea it was for them to not chase higher power and graphics. These tricks they've used are truly awesome and the way they con

I'm assuming you mean subjective time right? Because you can't cover 2.578 million light years in only 28 years moving at c from the reference frame of Earth.

Yeah, it's pretty old tech to triangulate a broadcast but I'm decently certain that satellite transmissions need to be directional. The problem then is you need the tech of a directional satellite dish that knows where to send the

I love Allo and all but it still seems like entirely ripping out the android code base of Hangouts and replacing it with Allo's style would've been better. The cost of fragmentation isn't worth simply not writing the new code

I'm genuinely curious: where can I read the disproving of tabula rasa? Are you meaning moral blank slate, intellectual blank slate or some combination of them?

Yes, obviously you could give the program the goal of "Stack blocks in order A:B:C" but that's not the point of the conundrum here. Imagine they are 30 different goals all of which need to be aligned in slightly odd ways to a

That has real promise. Sounds like they just need brighter lights or a variable high contrast background to the sensors.
