Similar experience. I bought a Kia last month. The salesman was insistent that his "delivery checklist" needed to be complete or he'd be in trouble with his manager. It included sitting with me in the car to make sure the app got installed on my phone. Thankfully, my trusty Moto is too old and the Play Store said it was incompatible with the app (I'd be curious to know exactly why, but haven't pursued it). The salesman looked quite dejected.
To me the reasons for this pressure seemed quite obvious: to ensure that I was fully enrolled in the data collection.
I've spent many years becoming quite fluent in bash. It's not trivial. But all objections here are surmountable if not outright features. Python is the right tool for many jobs. But so is bash, for someone willing to truly learn it.
Org is just a shorthand as far as I know. Emacs Org-Mode works with files typically ending in ".org". I prefer to avoid the confusion by saying "Org-Mode" and "Org-Mode files" fully (and, I believe, properly).
Ring customer here. I recently shared a video of crime on my property using the neighborhoods feature. I also downloaded the video to my phone, in order to email a copy of it to cops who asked for it (and apparently don't participate in the portal described here). The offender was subsequently caught thanks to the video, and the cops recovered my property for me.
The opt-in is limited to per video shared, as far as I've been led to believe and in my experience. I'd be quite alarmed to learn anyone could access anything I haven't designated without that specific sharing step on my part.
Is there a way to exclude results that don't actually contain all of the search terms? For example, results for +chicken +neutrino should not include this [1] because the word chicken isn't there. Quotes and plus signs both fail this everywhere I know of in 2018.
I suspect this will continue until any such service can be successfully marketed on the actual merit of the actual service provided, without the hype (or even the mention) that it's an AI-based service.
In this case at least, we can thank the media for the acquittal -- if you count the magazine among the media.
It's a little less dramatic than it might have been, since his artwork as the catalyst had nothing particularly to do with the case. But certainly the magazine's participation here was constructive to the right outcome.
The local news station, on the other hand, was perhaps a bit less helpful.
For self-hosters like me, I like and recommend Gitea [1] (based on gog). Same workflow as GitHub, but in your own hands. You can open it up to the masses or keep it close to the vest, your call. A Docker version is available, but its Go-ness makes it super easy (and even lighter) to deploy on its own anyway.
Right. Given their size, I'm not sure how painful this amount would be to the offender. Too low, and it's just a cost of doing business. A percentage penalty (of nationwide if not worldwide revenue) might prove much more concerning to them, much as we're seeing with general alarm caused by the fear of the GDPR's percentage penalty.
Robert Reich has become a very compelling and rational voice on these issues, making the problems and their causes much easier to understand. I strongly recommend his documentary at http://inequalityforall.com as well numerous other easily found pieces he's put out.
