Yeah, but in actual war (like Ukraine is finding out), flexibility matters. There are absolutely cells of Ukrainian engineers 3D-printing parts as they respond to our evolving understanding of drone warfare with innovative solutions.

Moreover, standardization is a long recognized enabler of industrial warfare... good standards let militaries flexibly source parts and share equipment, simplifying logistics. Letting military contractors obstruct that is our corruption... it's strategical stupid for a military that wants to be effective.

The goal is probably to bilk crypto investors from prosperous countries. While third world peoples are being exploited in some intangible sense, the main point is to use them to inflate the user count. It's bullshit because typically such users immediately cash out the meager compensation they were given for scanning their eyeball and cease any further usage of the coin.

I feel you should also list the Apple team that developed this feature... modern families are complex; how the hell could they make the "just one administrator" mistake? Having two (involved) parents is common. Having messy divorces is common. Having court ordered-custody is common. What sort of family were they designing for?

"framing effect"

Normally, developers are focused on making the product do something, but security is the inverse: it's making sure the product cannot do some things.

  It's difficult enough to hire good developers who can make products that do stuff, but hiring ones can ensure it doesn't do anything bad requires that you find the people who really knows their shit and have the imagination to identify all the things a product shouldn't do.

Likewise, organizational leadership, project management, QA, etc, have got to be bought into it.

No. While Bush did a lot of shitty stuff (trillion dollars wars, warrantless wiretapping, etc) and subsequent administrations compounded the damage, Trump is nakedly corrupt, lawless, and authoritarian. This is historical turning point stuff.

There's a strong demand for short-form use content on mobile. Portrait orientation works better for that situation. Stop blaming users for having preferences that are entirely rational.

Executing people up for their impulses (instead of, you know, actual crimes) is not "justice".

Okay boys, you know what we have to do. Somebody hold him down while I reboot to the USB installer. Are we going Gnome or KDE this time?

Is this $100 million in the room with us right now?

> Bitcoinâ(TM)s supply is finite its issuance is algorithmic and transparent and no one can âoepull numbers out of thin airâ to inflate its price or supply. ...so long as the social structure and community norms that undergird it remain in place. The ETH split over DAO is instructive here.

For electronics specifically, you have lots of online options beyond NewEgg/Walmart including B&H Photo/Video, Adorama, Microcenter, and maybe Best Buy. Since electronics are generally expensive, it's a high impact way to steer money away from Amazon.

By signaling that everyday/mundane content might hurt you, you teach people (teens and young adults in particular) that they are inherently fragile.

The problem is that life is tough. Even in rich Western social democracies, you will encounter horrible days and incredible challenges. Instead of coddling people and encouraging them to runaway from discomfort, we should be challenging them to engage with progressively more difficult ideas and realities.

Trigger warnings generally do more harm than good:
