which is the "workaround" to the gdpr the article badly describes (probably because brave upcoming ad network will do the same but more workaroundily)

now those are used to match a 3rd party id. you just need a gdpr_workaround schema in your data base with two columns user-id, google-random-id with N-1 records indexed both ways.

gdpr has restrictions on pin pointing a single person. this is effectively doing that, but claim it is not, because random ids. apple is just a little better with how device-advertiser-id works.

you should re-read the article. the main point is that it will solve frameworks (not exactly what the author aimed at, this I am extrapolating) reinventing everything. all utils methods will live in the proposed repository in the sky with all methods. frameworks will just contain their higher level logic, until that becomes common enough to use standard types in the util repository in the sky.

very good point.

i think the solution to this problem (module or not) will be the same solution to the shared lib problem.

npm is a dumpster fire, but the larger projects are usually fine (the /bin equivalent). the worst problem is that every large project pull in different versions of whatever libs they wanted to use (which the singleton util lib proposed in the article would solve)

illicit source

Because everyone wants our taxes to crack down on every herb garden in the neighborhood that evades taxes! specially the heirloom tomatoes! those creates multi-generation lost taxes oportunities!

everything that is somewhat not-ilegal will have small scale informal market. Friends grown their own tobacco, roast their own coffee... and all sell a little on the side.

how dense you have to be to think a literal weed would be different?

same in brazil and crimea and before that arabspring.

the obvious fake content on youtube and facebook was reported and removed, but all it did was hide the traces of the content that flooded private whatsapp groups.

perverse incentives.

if you have good SEO you do not have to pay google. Ironically.

so by allowing the copy cats, they kill the value of your good SEO and force your hand to pay for premium placement, generating revenue that wouldn't exist to them without the malicious clones.

on the other hand you can push docker images with typos from popular ones. harder to target specific targets, but sure to get a good volume.

this list is great.

thankfully the shift he points out with tan/work/leisure is happening and everyone now "works" as influencer on social media being the most basic as possible. By the time the author archives his desired basicnes as a status symbol, basicnes will already be repurpose to mean that you toil all day with basic social media influencing.

the little groups I've been part, people started with release notes/bragging rights in a readme1st file, which then evolved into a elaborated ascii poster, and eventually the release included (in the dump or besides it) a demo. and since most groups were 2-4ppl, it was the same ones doing all that "PR"

mods are quick to silence anything tangentially political (that is not about US propaganda war), but I'm glad they missed this one.

very relevant to the current climate. It brings up the important distinction between exile, refugee, hedonist. Its very, interesting (?), to see the three groups converging to the same country as you see the contemporary political changes creating refugees on one side, hedonists with their new found money on the other, and exiles in the middle.

Also important the call to how Mail in the 70s was so important to this all. Bringing back the current propaganda wars, this should be a central point on the ongoing talks to add backdoors to whatsapp and many other platforms that were being discussed here last week.

even if thats is true, and let's assume it is, you are adding yet another bunch of ISP, networks, nation states laws into the original mix. That might not work out in your favour.

not to mention people. no matter how reputable the car renter is, it is still hiring a minimum wage clerk who will handle all your documents and credit card.

my little research suggests the opposite

what a crap article.

the riots have been going on for a while.

recently, criminal mobs wearing white shirt are entering the subways with battons and violently attacking the protesters. all caugth on camera.

police is never present when white shirts show up, only hours later.

even though there are videos of all the white shirts, only the black shirts who are protesting in a pacifist maner are being indicted, and some under laws about carring a weapon because they were photographed with a traffic cone used to mitigate police tear gas granades.

this whole thing is as bad as crimea.

your analogy is off. and the suggestion to use VPN is outright counterproductive.

people close the bathroom door when they poop. I guess they also close the door when they whatch porn.

using a vpn is akin to (car analogy time) trying to using a rental car while in public. you actually expose yourself to the rental company, who might be shadier than the people at the place you're showing up at, who can still see you trhu the window (analogy for your 3rd party cookies)

china endgame is to make the world chinese, and then everyone will be using wechat.

and I am not even joking. And the irony is they are doing it using UK's old gameplan, via capitalistic investment with a side of corruption and military bullying. They call it Belt and Road, instead of Empire.
