I'm sorry and I know these kinds of posts are sometimes discouraged here on HN but do you have a eli5 for that or possibly some reading I could check out. Why would https everywhere allow advertisers to enhance their targeting?

Since you work on ads, may I ask why you support this? Won't this make most of your features ineffective?

Clearly Manning is the most simpathetic of all mistreated 'leakers'. Truly, what does anyone gain by having her locked up?

He was akin to a one man cartel, why shouldn't he be locked up? I'd guess there is a high risk he'd do it again if he had the chance. Unless you think it was OK because he was 26 years old and first time offender...

Reminds me of door control buttons in an elevator that you use everyday only to find the button resting on the floor one day, revealing that it was adhered to the control panel with a hot glue gun the whole time.

This is what I've seen everything trending towards for almost ten years now. The next step is to build hardware that utilize the full benefits of data center gaming. Vr headsets can shrink and are only limited by the method of getting

Yes it does matter. I have camera covers for my phone and laptop. In terms of microphones I keep the phone and laptop away from me when I have conversations about politics. Call me paranoid but we know that the potential for listening in is

They did? You are wrong, I find that equally concerning. I do make choices on electronics based on their hardware. I do not have any devices like he echo or homepod because I find them intrusive. Maybe you two don't but I definitely do

Cool. I read a few articles. Definitely bookmarking and returning for more.

My thoughts on this aren't really about Elon or media coverage, though I think all sides have valid points. My thoughts are that Tesla lowering prices overall was a bit strange to begin with. Not many were calling for a price reduction

You can always turn off Bluetooth via software to save on battery if that's what you mean.

I wonder, though, if this had more to do with how much they are actually investing in AI vs electric car tech. Surely Tesla is an EV company first and an AI company second. I know they like to brag about their autopilot but it eems to me th

I've used it several times to good effect. Got to stay in a decent room in Vegas when I was just passing through for 15 bucks. They offered it to me for a second night for 25. Ive also used it in LA, SF, bumfuck Arizona, etc. Each time

I am a conservationist to what some would say is the extreme and yet I agree with you. My eco-actovist friends would probably never talk to me if they heard me agree with you but it's true. We are naive. Some of us are greedy and throu

I'm not convinced by this argument. One factor he isn't addressing is that cars may be getting more reliable, as in people drive them for longer. My grandmother for instance switched to Toyota 25 years ago and has two cars that wh

Usually when I'm confronted with such conundrums it's a signal to me that I'm thinking about the problem too narrowly. Surely being at the table, unless you are the one making decisions, is lending yourself to someone else&#x

Took awhile to find it but they plan on building 33 one room homes. They site that before the fires there were 2000 homeless in butte County. 11 of these 33 will be set aside for victims of the fire. 22 will accommodate those 2000. Local co

I have to say, I have never thought of it this way but it seems so common sense. Every deal has a cost associated with it of course but if only a certain subsection of people can appreciate that deal (see: non low income earners), then tho

Now wait a minute. Serveillance technology is definitely sold as more than just tools for building a house. They are tools of war and authoritarianism. Sure you have your run of the mill equipment for securing your building. But then you ha

Get a couple of big dogs? Not sure who is more territorial. Maybe coerce them somewhere else with a snack they like so they occupy someone else's yard. Carrots and sticks.
