The trends for HS and Dropout are also negative. To me it implies education across the board is getting worse (assuming IQ is a good measure of “good” education).
> But most people aren't YouTubers. In my experience, people who aren't into tech usually have no idea their upload speeds are any slower than their download speeds, much less 25 times slower. People who aren’t into…
That’s interesting. I thought maybe it’s a resource constraint issue, where companies prioritise investment in other areas and do the minimum to “get certified” but it sounds like finding a good provider can be…
What a shame, HackerNews typically has more insightful comments than garbage like this. Edit: thanks to everyone who wrote some insightful responses, and there are indeed many. Faith in HackerNews restored !
From my understanding as a non security expert: Pentest comes across more as checking all the common attack vectors don’t exist. Getting out of bed to do the so-called “real stuff” is typically called a bug bounty…
The true failure is government. Mozilla shouldn’t have to lead this. The prosecutor should be the regulator.
No, because he is not telling you.. but he might tell someone he knows or cares about ? Or his descendants might find a reference to it or figure out it was him ?
Bringing up lack of access to sanitation hardly matters in this context. Almost everything can be deemed as not worth doing because we need to fix sanitation first. The author of the post is probably implicitly trying…
Less than 50% doesn’t qualify as most if the statement is about something binary and mutually exclusive. If more than or equal to 46% qualifies as most, then both the statements would be correct: (1) Most people don’t…
On the subject of paying twice, it’s always irked me that we have income tax and then sales tax on the taxed income.

You’ve missed the point… An entity that puts nothing into the host system, but consumes resources from the host to fatten itself is a parasite. In the case of hedge funds, it’s a zero-sum game. Either you or the counter…
This is a common argument I hear, it just doesn’t hold water. We should absolutely hold Big Tech accountable for their business models and actions. On the whole though, they have released many orders of magnitude more…
Hedge funds are parasites, they are an edge case in capitalism that needs to be patched. I can’t think of anything else that takes so much, while adding nothing to society.

My guess is that it’s in response to the EU bill that will force them to allow other app stores on iOS, and they don’t want to lose developers. There is no way they would improve out of the goodness of their heart. That…

“Lost” can also mean - no longer exists. If someone says.. we lost 10 men in that battle, it doesn’t mean we never knew who they were.
No. It’s in Pakistan. Double check your map.

I just don’t agree that financial data and health data are “related” simply because they were both generated on a single platform. It’s pretty easy to link any type of data at that point. All you need is for Apple to…
