How would that work in practice? Granted, the US might be able to manufacture critical components itself. What abou Italy? Honduras? Liechtenstein? Nigeria? Should they all produce their own hardware for national security concerns? And why

iCloud Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, FileBrowser (App), even EMail: There are lots of options to move media and other files to iPhone/iPad. Once in the corresponding app on the iDevice, you can send it (via share/open in.../send

Not much to see here despite some self promotion. It's mostly not about writing but preparing for (self) publishing. In short: Markdown, pandoc and kindlegen. Missing is everything about the writing process, structuring content and edi

Ask him/her the exact same question: „What questions would _you_ ask to evaluate a tech lead?“ This will tell you his/her priorities for the job.

The main reason for big media sites and forums not being https secured is the interest of the advertising community. There was a huge community discussion on sites like golem.de and Heise.de, which only recently switched to https. Login pag

I saw lots of families, singles, pairs and groups yesterday playing Pokemon Go all over the city. Most of them seemed to have a lot of fun. To be honest, they seem to know more details about and get to more places in the city than non-playe

At least, they have burned a lot of trust from once loyal EU users. And the GDPR "shutdown" for EU citizens with no given warning was a topic in every major newspaper here, not only computer/internet focused sites and papers.

Wouldn’t that „test“ imply that Apple isn‘t doing any kind of marketing/promotions through the 30% cut? At least here in Germany, discounts and boni of 10-15% when buying iTunes gift cards are quite frequent. And these discounts influe

You only have to prove "innocence" if your users doubt your statements about PII handling, are so annoyed about your doing that they inform the supervisory authority and that authority has sufficient doubt that they open an invest

So, how many cases do you know where fines are collected from small non-EU businesses? None? Okay. Why do you insist in a sum of €20 million, even if the law states that the fines (if applicable) should be reasonable and take into considera

Tell your users what PII you collect about them and why, ask for consent and give an option to opt-out. There is not "legal threat" if you are open about your business model, keep the collected PII reasonable and safe and don&#x27

Of course: convenience! Mankind has made countless decisions to trade convenience for some degree of personal freedom. I can live without mobile internet - its just so convenient to have it. Voice control for home appliances is exactly the

Asked a lawyer: If Instapaper doesn't delete the data from its EU users tomorrow, all the rules of the GDPR might still fall on their head. Most likely, they are then storing EU user data without given consent and have to follow all th

This is a terrible move. They had effectively years to prepare for the GDPR and they already have some sort of rudimentary export and delete options. This step removes all the trust in Instapaper that I had in the past: They either are mism

For the iPad, you could try a browser app called iCab mobile. It comes with an extension to increase the text size. That works with HN as well. See it in action in this screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nh9kjn4vgec6

Or perhaps these people/businesses have much more data about you and don't want to share how they monetize their "free" services by selling/renting/aggregating/analyzing your data? Think of all the free ap

Nice effect. But it is interesting how "lightweight" is used here. Sure, the library might be lightweight, but the CPU usage of my Chrome instance jumps to nearly 100% as long as I play with the demos. That's not "lightw

The IP address IS considered personal data by european courts. You can be compliant by either only storing an anonymized IP address (set the last/couple of last to 0) or by not storing the IP logs at all. However, there might be resona

Not working reliantly for me. Addresses that definitely exist are reported as not existing. No info on the checks used. So, this could even just be a clever way to collect email addresses through a simple form.

I’d add: Get (documented, active) permission of users to store and use their data, understand that permission is given only for a defined cause/usage (and not indefinitely for everything you right now might not even think of), be prepa

If the 'right to be forgotten' is enforceable worldwide, it will be enforceable regarding the internet archive as well.

In short: We f%%%ed up not reading our mails and responding on time, so the account got canceled - and now we put all blame on Google.

And you really think that CarPlay will be supported over 15 years and you use a supported phone for all that time? Seems, in your car usage scenario you‘re better off with a subscription you can cancel any time.

Decline? Most definitely. Fall? Who knows. Of course, it depends on your age as well: I've seen the rise and decline of CompuServe, AOL, AltaVista, MySpace, Compaq, Gateway, Siemens-Nixdorf and so on. Not to name Nokia, RIM/Blackb

Serious reply? Here you go: Wait for the things to come. Reason: Nobody can predict the future. Why are you relating your ad revenue with Net neutrality and are "pretty sure" about the outcome? Are you afraid ISPs will block your
