We have one dataset we would very much like to delete (discontinued product) but are required by a different EU law to keep. GDPR now also means that we have to provide that data to our customers if they request a copy of all the data we ho

This is great for any developer who prefers the Windows desktop experience to linux/macOS. I'm primarily on a mac myself, but I've used the original WSL and it works quite well.

Furthermore, you can even edit the values in place, to confirm or reject your hypothesis about a bug. And a debugger can often reach into framework or library code as well, saving the need to go and check out and rebuild dependencies.

I just started working at a shop that uses Bazel for a large-ish Java backend codebase. So far the key differences from maven, which I am most familiar with, are: * The module format is much lighter, making it more practical to split a proj

Interesting link, but I think you misunderstand my question. There are both automated and manual queues at most EU airports (the airport where I live doesn't have automated queues which I must say is quite annoying) but when departing

I often dig into phishing and malware spam I receive, reporting it to the abuse@ address for the sending network, and reporting any links hosting malware. I frequently come across malware hosted on onedrive and I've stopped bothering t

I think its more of a problem because Apple laptops are the only option for a lot of people (myself included) because they value having macOS over whatever annoyances the hardware might present. If this years' Dell has a shitty keyboar

I don't accept the thesis that Apple locks third-parties out of things like CarPlay out of a desire to lock their users into more of Apple's services. I think it has more to do with wanting to do things right and ensure a consiste

we’re trying to narrow down why some people have issues and some don’t, not make excuses for it. In my office we have no issues across about 20 2016 and 2016 models.

This is exactly what I want to prevent though - I want to prevent dodgy sites from using the quota exceeded exceptions from localStorage to (100% accurately in my experience) guess that I'm browsing in private mode.

by xmodem 8y ago
You and many of the commenters miss an important point: Any apparent behaviour difference between private and non-private mode should be considered a bug, because sites can and do abuse it to detect private mode.

Anecdote is not data, but I had huge issues when I first updated, so I rolled back. About 6 weeks ago I bit the bullet and updated again and it's been fine.

GDPR is happening because silicon valley and the adtech industry have been taking the absolute piss for years and Europe is fed up.

In short, not many networks are checking signatures because not many networks are publishing them. Take a look at this presentation from 2009. http://www.ausnog.net/sites/default/files/ausnog-03/presenta.

Hi Brian, thanks for replying to my post. I apologise for my reactionary tone above, but do you understand how by declining to share specifics your tweet aroused suspicion? EDIT: I've just read through your privacy policy and I wish ot

Why can't they comment on it? It's very suspect.

The Instapaper one - #1 - is troubling for a non-obvious reason. One of the tenets of GDPR is that you have to be told how your data is being used. So the only explanation for this behaviour is that there's some shady shit going down t

This is almost as bad as the drive-by "rewrite it in rust" type comments some open source projects get.

For me personally the cost of a movie ticket is a rounding error, even at more expensive cinemas. The experience of watching a movie at home, with a few close friends, on a 65 inch OLED, with a Dolby Atmos system, and access to my beer frid

No-one outside Apple knows, and we won't find out for at least another 5-10 years when executives start writing books about it, if ever. But you miss my point entirely. Perhaps a better way of putting it is in this comment from Tim Coo
