Previous reporting on this (when the JPM civil suit was filed) mentioned that JPM didn't care about the fafsa forms business at all. They bought them entirely to get a big pile of marketing leads to sign up young people for banking services early in their adult life before they're signed up with other banks, through a brand they're already familiar with. Considering how many "$200 to open a new checking account!!" junk mail fliers Chase sends me, $41/lead must've seemed like a bargain.
She probably thought they would just be subsumed into a massive corporation, that JPM had shitty metrics and monitoring on their marketing campaign, and nobody would notice most of their emails were going nowhere.
I think over a long enough term they would. It's about ~$44 a customer (assuming 100% retention). Once they're in the Chase ecosystem, it's easier for Chase to get them to add Chase credit cards, use Chase for a mortgage, interchange fees, minimum balance fees and so on.
Just pay the government a $100 bribe^W 'application processing fee' for Precheck or Global Entry, and no more taking off your shoes. Or taking out your laptops or liquids, or having a government employee look you over in the nudie scanner. Also, shorter, faster lines.
But all this is actually necessary and not security theater. We promise.
This guy also has a bunch of posts on the same site denying climate change and rehashing conspiracy theories about fraudulent votes for Biden. I wouldn't take anything he says very seriously.
Yes, but more likely the major naval powers would just ignore you unless you were doing something that specifically angered them (fugitives, human trafficking, piracy, etc).
Otherwise I think they'd be happy to let you sit there on your leaky little scurvy raft in international waters as long as you want. Piracy is a much bigger problem if you have anything valuable and aren't just sea hobos, but it's more likely the weather is gonna mess you up first.
The degree to which HN is obsessed with AMP is hilarious at times. You'd think every single one of the 100k engineers that work there do nothing but dream up ways to trick people into using AMP for some secret illuminati end goal.
If you don't like AMP, that's fine. If you don't like this UX change that's fine too (and I suspect will be easily fixed with an extension). But maybe consider for a moment that not every single UX change to a product with a billion users is part of the vast AMPiracy.
You say this as if those engineers (and it's not 100,000) are all voting in a democratic decision-making process on feature direction. It's a very small number of senior leaders who make these calls.
Remember, Sundar used to be in charge of the Google Toolbar. That was his claim to fame inside of Google before Chrome.
Nobody is claiming the following ridiculous statements:
> every single one of the 100k engineers that work there do nothing but dream up ways to trick people into using AMP for some secret illuminati end goal.
> every single UX change to a product with a billion users is part of the vast AMPiracy.
> I don't know why people in this thread seem to think that Turkey is a poor developing country.
In the EU, there is a lot of prejudice against Turkish people because of the decades of immigration. Think of how most Americans stereotype Mexico and Mexican people, and that's roughly how many people in the EU regard Turkey.
In the US people don't really know anything about Turkey, aside from a vague idea that it's "middle eastern". Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if a huge percentage of Americans think Turkey is all deserts and they speak Arabic.
My girlfriend is from Turkey, and I shared this story with her a while back (I discovered it while also researching some Unicode collision issues.) She said that while it's an entertaining story, there's almost certainly a bit of sensationalism and exaggeration from the Turkish press combined with credulity by English language journalists when re-reporting it. Basically, the supposed texts wouldn't have made sense in terms of grammar and syntax with a straightforward dotless/dotted I swap, and would've been obvious to someone fluent in Turkish what happened. This is would've been especially true if you had had this cell phone for any amount of time and communicating in Turkish and it had been routinely swapping Is.
More likely is a bunch of young and/or not too bright people were looking for a reason to get into a violent confrontation. Then the muckraking Turkish press had a sensationalist murder-suicide lovers quarrel story, and as a bonus a nationalistic "see how cell phone companies don't respect our culture" angle as the cherry on top.
However, you should still ALWAYS be careful when converting between character sets and be locality aware when manipulating strings. Practice string safety. ;)
Google Home stores everything after the hotword trigger until the light goes off (you stop speaking).
Each action has a card that explains what triggered it, what device, and what result was given, and you can listen to it. You can also turn recording storage off entirely, or delete by device or date ranges.
Honestly the only bad part is it's buried several layers down in the options and account activity, where most people don't go looking. If you do care though the privacy options and controls are pretty good.
This is the same with Alexa, with the exact same drawback that it's buried in the settings>History section.
It's actually a really cool feature; this entire fiasco could likely have been avoided if Amazon were to embrace the feature (data export and review) rather than treat it as something only nerds are interested in.
If you have data export by default (like Google's Data Takeout), then you don't need to build internal custom systems and manual processes that are only tested on GDPR requests. You've already built them for the default case. Handling GDPR requests is now user self-serve with a link to documentation explaining how to get their data.
