And for what, so you yo-yos can get money for nothing and your chicks for free?

I've got a daytime job and I'm doing alright.

At the same interest rate, I'd definitely prefer RMB over USD.

RMB is the BRICS currency.

Would you prefer rubles?

How nice for you and the other guy.

We were both fans. But allegedly it had a low number of tens of millions of users, but then firefox has a decent number of tens, so the percentages weren't terrible.

It's a collecting information about your activity service. It's not for you, it's for them.

yeah yeah if you're not paying you're the product yada yada.

Cool. But it was also useful to me. The bookmarking and tagging was very useful. The recommended articles were really good. And I shouldn't use it because?

It's no worse than "colonel".

Or you can do two at a time with "lieutenant colonel".

The USA is experiencing inflation.

China is experiencing deflation.

So the different interest rates make sense.

The "C" in BRICS is China.

Even worse, harsher penalties will lead to more coverups and less disclosure.

Coupang voluntarily reported the breach. That should be encouraged.

I agree with one thing, if the EU would be 'dealing' with the middle east on its own, things would be much better ! Without the US constantly fucking things up there, that is.

How many components would a human design require?

Is 843 more or fewer? Better or worse?

Is the singularity nigh?

The problem in this case was a stolen credential that was left usable for an extended period of time. Near-line storage alone would've only been a small "bump in the road" for this particular leak, assuming the person knew enough to ask for all the data to be loaded from near-line storage before stealing it.

Things like building-access-codes don't need to be kept on a "live" database. If a customer places an order, the key-access-code for that specific customer can be copied from nearline storage to "live" storage well before delivery, then deleted after delivery is complete.

This way, if the "live" database is completely compromised, only the relatively-few customers who have pending or very-recently-delivered items will have their key-access-code data stolen.

A similar principle can apply to the customer's contact and billing information and for that matter all information not needed to login in: only have it available to the "live" system when it's needed.

If a customer decides he wants to review his account information, give him a screen that says something like "it will take 5 minutes to retreive your data" then put a count-down timer in the corner of the web page. Use that 5 minutes to load the data from nearline storage.

They haven't got any other ideas to reverse the falling user numbers, and apparently neither does anyone else. Firefox is a decent browser, with some of the best privacy protection features. The Android version needs some work, but it's better than Chrome. HDR doesn't work, but how many people care?

So why do people abandon it? Some sites don't work, but without simply becoming a Chrome skin they can't do a huge amount about that.

Aggressive marketing by Google? Can't stop that either.

AI isn't actually the worst idea. For a lot of people being able to say "download this video" and it does would be a valuable feature. You can do it with an add on, but most people won't get that far. I bet it won't be able to do that though.

We build a fair number of metal things that spend their lives in sea water. Most of them have heat exchangers too.

Microsoft did that. It apparently worked okay. They've ended the experiments and haven't decided to deploy it in production.

Employers need to accept that they have to train and develop people they take on. Grades should be an indication of ability to learn.

Say you have 100 shares available at a given price, and three people offer to buy them all in the same second. How do you handle that? You could give them all 33, and have one spare, as long as they are okay with only getting 33. Maybe you could have an "all or nothing" marker on the trade.

Random delays have the same issue, the buyer either has to accept an unknown price up front, or the seller has to accept cancelled trades and unpicking failed multi way deals.

The system was designed for human traders and needs a fundamental rethink.
