You pose a very valid point and I stand by it. Such an argument is often countered with the cost of rapid progress and providing businesses the autonomy without burdening them with bureaucracy. Cost is also a factor. These pictures seem to

Few things seem to be at play here. 1. iPhone uses face tracking to adjust focus on subject's face 2. Same face detection can end up detecting faces in arbitrary objects. Very common occurring. Here the leaf. 3. iPhone uses multiple le

Not a security expert, but I believe security applies too. It is difficult to claim a system as 100% secure. So long as what is being secured is less worth than the effort to hack into, you are good.

Not true in case of India either. A report[1] released just a few weeks ago mentions 0.85 million Indians who have surrendered their Indian citizenship in favour of US, Australia or other western countries in last 7 years. It would be conse

You lost me at "selling their right". It is important to understand that "selling" and "right" should not appear in the same sentence when the said right is being addressed as a basic right. It opens room for a

This is more common than one would imagine. Not all banks provide statements narrowed down to debit card usage. A bank statement does not always show the debit card number making it difficult to establish a link between the provided evidenc

I do feel this is market research inspired. The fact that it is sold out between Thanks Giving and Christmas. This makes a brilliant secret santa gift for offices, friends, family.

Loved it. Is there no way to start a slideshow? As in fullscreen slides? If there is such a control, it isn't obvious to me. If it isn't would be awesome to have it.

India should be held up as a classic example. Racial reservation once initiated is difficult to eradicate and there is no assurance that such a program benefits the under-privileged. If at all it creates further class divide.

The bonus in there is a very valuable piece of advice. Thought I have good understanding of email authenticity measures, it never occurred to me that my domains that don't send out any emails should advertise the block all policy.

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't the failure of smart homes attributed to the SaaS model itself. Nest devices had to be killed because Google wouldn't support the subscription anymore. What it needs is licensing model

Ironically, in the early days Apple was redirecting developers to the web to build apps for the iPhone. But then it seems they discovered a money minting model.

That’s precisely my point. An oracle in the system is needed for an override. But introduction of such an oracle is viewed by most crypto enthusiasts as a undebatable compromise.

I agree that it isn't a zero sum game and that there are valid use cases. But I don't see any of these use cases operating over a multi-million dollar business. There has to be a way to override an exploit when a sum like that is

Would be interesting to know what these fail over patterns are. As DNS takes a while to propagate, I thought DNS records already indicate fail over addresses.
