Great, if I'm dying of poisoning I can sue, at least. Helpful.

Forget shared hosts, how about when I write something for my client on my employers machine? I'm using the software for the benefit of a third party...

You obviously didn't read the article before deciding this wasn't systemd's fault. The bug is the lack of any error handling in the DynamicUser feature of systemd. The original failure is not logged anywhere - and launching t

If you're working digitally, you won't introduce any noise. There is the possibility of errors in sounds between 22.05kHz and 24 kHz, but they're easily fixed with a low-pass-filter at 22Khz before resampling.

Some good mind hacks here, but I have to say that changing wording from "do my taxes" to "organize my finances" is not a way to reduce dread. I have done my taxes about 18 times in my life. I have yet to organize my fina

The forced upgrade would be less of a problem if Win10 didn't spy so much, or show ads in the start menu. It would still be a problem, but less so.

What does 'screen 13' mean? Why must I have parenthesis around 50, 50? Also, I doubt many 7 year olds have a Jupyter notebook they refer to as "mine".

Even if you can't have Apac's for all prisoners, wouldn't it be a great idea to try to have it for a lot more prisoners, perhaps even for most?

You could try to create some sort of SQL-builder API where each fragment must be static, and each fragment contains its own placeholders. Then you can use conditionals and loops to decide which fragments are included.

Use parameters, of course. Using SQL parameters for untrusted input is the only sane way to avoid SQL injections.

The admin who dismisses the conflict of interest complaint later comments that 'being attacked by RT and George Galloway is a reasonably reliable indicator that you are doing something right'. It's very easy to see how someon

You're wrong. Libui uses GTK on linux, but uses native toolkits on windows and MacOS.

My point is that you won't be sued for the GDPR. What might happen is that a complaint is raised with the regulatory body. This is not the same thing as being sued.

Run your small company website without gathering personal data? No-one can sue you now, that couldn't before. I'm baffled that so many people believe this. I could complain about you to my country's regulation body. Then they

Just some context: DN is a financial newspaper in Norway, pretty important and trusted, if slanted towards "business" points of view. NTNU is the second biggest university in Norway, focuses on science, and is well-regarded. DN so

Just a side note: Password managers are not useless in private browsing. I use KeePass and Kee for firefox, and it works the same in private browsing as in "normal" browsing.

Maybe I'm just stupid, but that seems very clear to me from article 3.1 [0]: This Regulation applies to the processing of personal data in the context of the activities of an establishment of a controller or a processor in the Union, r

Won't you inherit all the encoding trouble this article goes on about? As well as the problems with integer precision? And get a bunch of new ones with special characters in keys... I'm sure you _could_ specify a nice sexpr format

This seems completely batshit insane. For example, even if you wanted to, you can't wave a magic wand and give Eventbrite a perpetual license to play a recording of music that you licensed for your event.

Shouldn't it be possible to give the calf all the milk until it's old enough to wean, but keep milking the mother. I think that's what they used to do in the days of sustenance farming. Of course, if the calf was a boy they w

While I see your point, here are some counter-examples: - Someone who was the victim of a high-profile crime, not wishing everyone they come into contact with to know about it - Someone being stalked/targeted, living on a secret addres

I don't think Microsoft would be able to produce something that was just ready, without having to create a project or click through a wizard first. Much of this functionality is available already, through ODBC, powershell, c# - but it&

I think some sort of freemium would be the way to go. Photos/videos expire unless you pay, limited space for photos/videos unless you pay, limited group size, limited amount of events/month, integrated ticket sales, branding

Good ad blockers stop a lot of the tracking as well, though - which is the main reason I use ad blocking.

The insurance example was just the first thing I could think of. Replace with phone company, utilities company, what have you.

GDPR might make certain uses of machine learning more difficult. A hypothetical insurance company that uses ML to decide who gets offered which rate, might run into trouble when a customer asked for "meaningful information" about
