Funnily enough they did try to do agile design with these warships. They started building the first one before they figured out the whole design, with the idea they could update as they went. It was an absolute disaster. They had to redo a

Not much. In theory if a company acts under the direction of a govt official a court could find that it acted as part of the state. But that takes a very high degree of entanglement. If the company is simply persuaded the official has a goo

That's not what we're suggesting. You get an email from the IRS that looks like so. The best option for you would depend on your circumstances, but you'd be strictly better off having the choice. Hello nonethewiser, We have f

Okay but I don't see why you're so skeptical of the policy. This is all normal telemetry data roughly analogous to what most websites collect. Why are you assuming they're probably collecting much less?

The whole overdue thing is also a logically fallacy. If something has an x% chance of happening per year and it hasn't happened for many years it has an x% change of happening next year, not some greater percentage.

It's not that unreasonable an assumption. Qualcomm offers a different opt-in service under the same name that does use location data. Basically your phone uploads sensor data like cell tower strength and WiFi strength, and their servic

It is odd that neither article quotes from the policies linked from the domain they're talking about. I think the relevant section is "Qualcomm GNSS Assistance Service" on https://www.qualcomm.com/site/pr

I think you might find the appeals court decision interesting. They look at other impacts of blocking. One thing they consider is that the blocked constituents can view public pages on Facebook, but not public profiles on Twitter. But they

"Not even" isn't really the right way to put it. The democratic commissioners are consistently anti-crypto and the republicans are relatively pro-crypto.

I don't have access to Bard. I'm skeptical that's a valid approach. Language models are famously incapable of introspection. Does it change the answer if you tell it it's wrong, for example?

The Civil Rights Corps have done some pretty significant work in this area. They've won lawsuits to require some court systems to look at people's ability to pay before setting fines and fees, for example. https://civil

The key to Erlang error handling is that crashes should bubble up to a high level which then restarts everything below it in a known good state. If you're in a coordinated dance with another process you link to that process. If a proce

No. Unfortunately a major issue in US copyright law is that the bar for effectively controlling access is incredibly low. One particularly infuriating case involved a box that blocked the low-frequency part of a signal. That's all it t

Yes. At the top of this thread I said the DMCA bans anti-circumvention tech. You've made a lot of good points, but I don't get why you're arguing with me. None of that contradicts me.

Thanks for the tip. I put in an example that ChatGPT completely failed at and phind eventually got the right answer. Oddly it went off on a tangent about how the problem can't be solved in Python, which I never mentioned. But when I ex

On Firefox on my Android phone it's phrased much better: "Use this device with screen lock". But that doesn't sound like something I'd ever want. Obviously I want to be able to log in on my computer too?

This tool seems designed to download from many domains at once based on the readme section about optimizing DNS resolution. Considering that wouldn't a simple optimization be to shard by domain instead of arbitrarily?

I've heard (from random people) it's about whether the permission aligns with the category the app falls into. A map app is assumed to have a legitimate purpose for location. But if you want to make a journalling app that automati
