Nah. Homer is a lazy idiot, but he has a moral compass and loves his family.
Exactly. They really sealed the deal when they sent a push message to get people to call Congress and stop the ban. https://www.theverge.com/2024/3/7/24093308/tiktok-congress-ban-push-notification
"TikTok can be used to influence our citizens politically" * TikTok proves it true immediately on a personal level for legislators * "See!"
Couldn't have found a better way to put gas on that fire. You're supposed to ~bribe~ lobby when they start talking shit.
Exactly BYD is their biggest problem. Also they can't claim higher build quality so you'd really pay more for just the brand.
I've seen some GDPR code. The easiest thing to do is delete anything associated with a deleted user after N days. Adding a condition on the country they told you they're from without actual KYC is asking for trouble.
Sure aggregate anononymized data sticks around. Maybe the anonymization isn't built right, but it isn't literally your DNA data unless they really fucked up GDPR compliance.
I will caveat that a sufficiently motivated company might put in the hours to use at least billing info or shipping address. https://customercare.23andme.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004944654-What-s-In-Your-Account-Settings
They actually talk about opting you out of Research and discarding the sample (on the linked privacy page). The word delete isn't explicitly used about the DNA data 🤔.
If you still have DNA data with them, delete your account and the DNA along with it. It really is valuable and you bet your ass it's going to get sold if it's still there at bankruptcy time.
If you take the raise and stay, you're now a bigger number on the same asshole bean counter's spreadsheet. Maybe the biggest in your role. That's not a long term move.
"In an October 2023 analysis for Congress, the Defense Department reported it was “likely” that China has considered locating a “military logistics” facility in Equatorial Guinea. Earlier this month, Gen. Michael Langley, the current AFRICOM commander, warned the Senate Armed Services Committee: “China is actively pursuing a naval base on Africa’s Atlantic coast.”"
“Equatorial Guinea seems blatant about the fact that they are very much for sale to the highest bidder. They are very happy to be courted by Washington and Beijing because they occupy a strategic spot in the world and sit on a strategic resource and they have the money to allow them an independence that other countries in the region don’t have.”
"bIdEN CoZiEs up tO ThE WoRLds WoRSt DiCtaTor" lol OK. What's the alternative, let Winnie the Pooh just set up a naval base uncontested? "Liberate" them? That's in the playbook too, most people don't enjoy it.
X gon' give it to ya Fuck waiting for you to get it on your own X gon' deliver to ya Knock knock, open up the door, it's real Wit the non-stop, pop pop of stainless steel
Being a quarterback savant didn't really prepare him for his new career as a political scientist, historian, and scientist.
Sounds like you're well on your way with a good process. The book Software Architecture: The Hard Parts is a pretty decent guide to breaking apart a monolith. It's not a 100% follow it to the letter guide IMO, but I think the overall approach makes sense. At each step you have to consider trade-offs instead of following any kind of dogma.
This coincides with Kia/Hyundai announcing the same thing. Either they need Baidu tech to compete with BYD in the Chinese market because it's just that good or locally desirable. Or the countries regulators require it. Given they all announced this at the auto show at the same time, seems too coordinated for competing car companies.
