Yes. There are solutions to that though, that are cheap and work worldwide wherever there is a cellular range (e.g. Hologram, SimBase). They only lost cellular when I was at a really weird place (Faroe Islands), and only one of them. Trackers use very little data (depends on the tracker and config I guess, I use branded ones i.e. Teltonika)

I self-hosted it for a while now. Works well. I track all devices I have and additionally hardwired a GPS in my car, connected to it. It supports a almost infinite list of GPS devices and protocols, so definitely you can find something on their list.

Very configurable, when I added a Bluetooth temperature beacon to the GPS in my car I was able to write specific computed attributes in it so that it converts raw value and saves temperature together with each check-in.

From the table:

> Cloud / Self-Hosted: Opt-in analytics

> Air-Gapped: Disabled by default

What's the difference?

In last 4 years I've been to rental apartment in Montenegro that left smoke smell on my backpack for multiple days, and in really badly smelling 3-star hotel room in North Macedonia (both in capital cities)

My strategy for Ring when I used it as it was cheapest option with cloud recording and notifications (what's the point of local recordings if someone can just steal them) was to just connect it to a smart plug and then to UPS. I simply disabled power to it just before I got home.

S3 is a generic term for a cloud storage everywhere. Idk about proper terms, I always called Google Cloud Storage or Backblaze or any other products using S3 protocol as "S3". It all works the same

I was driving in convoy over closed (to non-convoy driving) mountain pass in Norway, in winter. Everything was white, you could barely see the road. Snow was so heavy that visibility stretched as far as the car before me, you couldn't see further than that. At some point a snow plug passed on the other side of the road and completely covered my windshield with snow, to the point that for a few second I had no visibility whatsoever. Good luck to cameras then.

You can find the parameters used in GitHub repository linked from the article, and the phone number isn't one of them (https://github.com/Lighthouse-Reports/amsterdam_fairness/tre...)

When doing HTML sanitization, I always whitelist marquee as an easter egg (and almost nothing else)

That's kind of already a thing in cars: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_night_vision

> waiting for CERT by itself (after you have a validated fix) is 2 weeks

If the industry practice would be few days to disclosure just maybe those practices might change or maybe there would be a (extra paid) option to skip the line for urgent stuff.

Well, time enjoyed spending isn't time wasted. For me I don't like cooking, showering, shaving (or especially picking up deliveries), I do it as least as I can. On the other hand I do walk for like 1-1.5h every day, and this time I do enjoy.

So your time has no value (not just going there and back, but preparing to leave, dressing, undressing etc.)?

Your car/other transport is completely free? I wonder what's the difference, but I've calculated for myself a while back and going to a restaurant just isn't worth it.

For me often even if I literally drive by a shopping centre when this restaurant is, I would just order on my phone instead and have it delivered to my home. It takes so much time to park in multi-story garage, then go like 200+m from my car to this restaurant (the only Burger King in my city) and back, wait for the order... Doesn't make sense for me, I hate this time wasting system.

But now Uber Eats announced the One will only cover half of the delivery fee, so looking at the trend of enshittification from now in it soon might be just worth it...

Asking questions is something I've actively had to learn later in life.

In what ways when compared to OSM?

If you directly use Google Maps Geocoding API you will see in response there what type of address is it and is it precise location or estimation.

The license is for non-commercial use only

Sure, but I'm not suggesting running there, just testing there. We also have to run in specific providers in specific location, but nothing stops us from renting a clean large VM in AWS for an hour or two, for testing stuff without using any customer data. Hell, that costs pretty much nothing so if my employer didn't allowed it, I would just pay with my own money - it's much better for your work efficiency to work out the kinks of this without having to do 10 cleanups after failed deployment, it's much easier than to just delete a VM.

For me I would just run it on a clean cluster/VM somewhere (to be destroyed after that) just to see what happens. If you have no local resources to spare, an hour of even very high end (to save time) VMs/cluster at a provider e.g. AWS costs next to nothing

Oh and the most difficult part when setting up, from what I remember, was setting up GitHub SSO and GitHub and Slack integration as it wasn't well documented.

We've just applied a helm chart a while back. It just works. We maybe had like a few incidents over the years, requiring stuff like Kafka queues to be wiped.

The argument that you have to read a sh script doesn't make sense to me. Are you gonna read source code of any software is referenced in this script or any you download too? No? What's the difference between that and a bash script, at the end of the day both can do damage.

If you look at the actual decision, Google court cases are quoted there many times (Search, Play etc.) as the precedent of e.g. what monopoly is.

> everyone will be so used to certificates changing all the time, and no certificate pinning anymore

Browser certificate pinning is deprecated since 2018. No current browsers support HPKP.

There are alternatives to pinning, DNS CAA records, monitoring CT logs.

Probably because taxing goods is easy compared to services.

It's "nice go have" i.e. cheaper to just pay for more storage than do it properly

We recently discovered we store 500MiB of email tokens (expired). Then a copy of them in history table. Then this data is replicated. Then there are total of 4 backups of it. Backups that are done every 2 hours for half of each day. And we store those backup for up to half a year. I don't even want to add that up...

I guess learning about every single law in every single situation would be this one thing that's "sure they're not easy and they take time" but:

Quoting from the swedish driver education book[1].

> It is not desirable to have 100% adherence to the rules. According to the criteria for a category B licence, you must display “good judgement when interacting with other road users”. A reasonable interpretation of this statement is that you may depart from the rules in some cases.

I feel the same can be said about many other situations.

So you never drove your car at 1mph over the speed limit?

The numbers per [1] are:

- 243 ms for AirPods 4 ANC

- 215 ms for AirPods 4

- 185 ms for AirPods Max

- 160 ms for AirPods Pro 2nd gen

Per [2] lowest you can get with properiary dongle is 11ms, and with Bluetooth using SBC, which AirPods use, 85ms. Lowest latency possible using aptX LL Bluetooth headphones is 54 ms. For comparison, wired headphones bring it to as low as 0.1 ms with analog plug and 8 ms via USB
