This isn't about liability. It's about shifting the decision of whether to disclose, and on what timetable, entirely back on the vendor.

The only reason it's a "thing" is that the reporters in this case were attempting to do a responsible, coordinated disclosure. That's important for their own brand - many clients would be reluctant to hire a security con

If H1 was willing to take and triage reports without requiring acceptance of their terms and NDA, that would be fine. We also need to be very clear that the moment a company, or it's authorized representative, flags something as a wont

The scary part for a lot of people is that this new $600 threshold puts a reporting burden on low value personal property that few people bother documenting their basis in. Until very recently, this didn't matter, because it was very u

Some of it was NTSC and composite video's limited bandwidth smearing stuff together, but quite a bit of it was the less capable beam shaping and less precise phosphor masks on TV-grade CRTs. Basically, yes, vintage TVs were terrible an

Minor point: don't have a common consumer grade TV of that era for reference. Actual "reference grade" CRTs of the time (such as the Sony PVM series) look almost as crisp as the perfect lines of modern retro-emulation.

I would also be comfortable with a service that was willing to broadly indemnify me as the customer from copyright and patent claims arising from code generated by their service. I doubt that will ever happen either.

The other angle I'd really like to see is license safety. If it was possible to create a Copilot type tool trained exclusively on permissively licensed code (or even proprietary code that was licensed such that the tool subscription co

If you don't collect the data in the first place, you can't misuse it - and it's much easier to prove that you didn't misuse it, because all you have to show is that you never had the dangerous data in the first place. T

Yeah, I can't think of anywhere in the US this would overlap with a protected class - so long as it was consistently applied. If someone says they discriminate based on your sign, it would warrant a very close look to be sure they aren

In practice, in the US, the categories you listed have all been used as proxies for race and/or ethnicity. Making a claim of discrimination based on proxy characteristics isn't always clear cut, but it sticks often enough to make

CR's core failing is, on the surface, their greatest strength: they refuse to have any "special" contact with any manufacturers. Unfortunately, this also means that they don't ask, or listen, when their test procedures a

The FCC used aggregate performance across the network, which arguably isn't accurate at depicting the performance in the most remote cells. Starlink is unusual here in the degree to which their service performs better in more remote ar

Owner-occupied is kind of a special case, too, because you've got to live somewhere. You could be paying $X to rent, or $X+Y as a mortgage plus upkeep, so the additional "investment" you're making is just $Y. In some cas

I think you may be talking about two slightly different things. Land and expand in the sense of "land a small, right-sized solution for one group within a large company, then leverage that successful deployment to expedite expansion to

Ha, yeah. I had the same experience, around the same time, also on a Beowulf cluster.

Employees can be pretty terrible at their jobs and keep them if they can show up on time and sober. Schedule coverage is more important than almost anything else.

Sounds like it. They would have to have a "traditional" credit card account to not show up as prepaid on the system.

Most states use the MSF Basic course for drivers with a normal drivers license who want to add a motorcycle endorsement. It's 10 hours classroom, 10 hours riding, so effectively a three day course though it's split up various ways

Full AGI is likely uneconomic anyway. I think the sweet spot is going to be right below wherever we ultimately draw the "gets to have rights" line. There would still be good reasons to do AGI, and free artificial minds would be ab

Most of the fancy foam I've seen used in the "real world" is as much marketing as utility. Yoga mats are for working toolboxes, expensive branded, color-coordinated, laser-cut foam is to make the purchaser feel like James Bon

It may be a reference to "shadow boards" which is another, similar technique used mostly for wall mounted tool storage. It's basically pegboard with a silhouette (or "shadow") of each tool painted on.

Gauges locking to the "ideal" value when sufficiently close to it is a common UI pattern. Car dashboard gauges do this a lot - fuel gauges usually show "full" at anything over about 80% - often you'll suddenly see a

Notion seems to have perfectly nailed that "eager adoption by non-technical teams" spot that Slack did a few years ago in their niche. I've worked with several organizations that went all-in on Notion, and can think of two th

Not sure if this would apply to your app, but a common pattern is to display a "draft saved" type autosave message. (Email, for example.)

And then there's the impact of false positives. You could even get a situation like we have with some CAPTCHAs where the best fakes are "hyperreal" and actually detect as less suspicious than many real images.
