I went through the leaks last night and they're wrong about the IP addresses. All of the IP addresses listed are internal to the service itself- they recorded the IP addresses of their own nodes (or possibly cloudflare edge nodes), and

That's exactly why the EU is doing this. The various EU courts all have issue with the fact that the US Government can force US Companies to share data with US Intelligence companies even if that data resides outside of the US. This is

by tedivm 5y ago
The problem is that US law says that the US can tell a US company to share data with US Intelligence Agencies even if that data exists in a subsidiary outside of the US. That's why simply storing EU data in the EU isn't enough whe

I used to be obsessed with the programming game Screeps and read most of these blog posts when they were still published on the authors stanford pages- there's a lot of great stuff in there.

Protecting privacy would be not giving names out at all- instead they do confirm employment, but lie about what the role was.

You're really bending over backwards here to justify really bad behavior. Apple is actually bringing on liability by lying about what people's titles really were. They aren't saying "nothing", they're actually

I think it's really important to note that Apple does not have to share their database with these third party companies, but not only do they choose to do so they also make sure the information is wrong. Apple is, essentially, being un

Yeah I can relate- I run a couple of open source PHP projects that are fairly popular but other than that have mostly moved on to other languages. Salary is part of it, but I also found that there were a lot of characters in the PHP communi

I find the average salary, especially for things like PHP, to be absolutely meaningless. There are PHP shops where people are just tweaking wordpress templates, and there are PHP devs who work for companies like Facebook. These groups have

Tod Frye is such an interesting guy. I had the luck to meet him taking an AI class in Berkeley a couple years ago- I don't think he'll ever stop learning.

I have a 14 inch M1 and a 16 inch Intel- the M1 was primarily to test a bunch of ARM stuff. I've also had a 15inch for years. My take is that the 16 inch is a bit too big to be conveniently portable (especially on airplanes, it's

Even the apps built off of the "blockchain" rarely touch the blockchain. Companies aren't looking up NFTs on the chain, they're just hitting OpenSea APIs.

Most states have some variety of "homeowners" or "homestead" tax policy that gives deductions for people who live in their own home. I don't mind that, as long as it is fair. In California it isn't fair, and it

I lived in California for 10 years (I moved to Chicago last July). The entrenched power is just ridiculous- old politicians never retire, it's all political machines everywhere, and while there are a lot of amazing activists they'

To be clear, even without asbestos talcum powder can cause cancer in women. It also doesn't have to be put directly in a vagina- using it in diapers for children is enough to cause some to potentially migrate in. A study in New England

It's still used by parents in diapers, despite that being a huge cancer risk.

It's also not uncommon to purchase an existing company, move debt over to it, and then kill it off. Late stage capitalism is an interesting phenomenon.

Uber has the worst hiring process. I had a junior system admin working for me in ~2012. He wasn't bad, in general, but he was extremely dishonest. We had a failure in a raid volume and volunteered to do the work, got trashed at a trivi

There really should be more personal culpability, at least on the exec team and board of directors, for things like this. I also hope Google gets sued in Europe over this. I live in the US and work for a European company and I'm reason
