In a practical sense, I can tell you that in mobile apps, some parts of gdpr are implemented based on phone language settings or in the case of websites, the domain suffix of the page (.fr or .de, etc). I’m guessing this is an interpretation of the section described here:

strong indications that a non-EU business is intentionally offering goods or services to data subjects in the EU and may therefore be subject to the GDPR:

• Use of the language of an EU Member State (if the language is different than the language of the business’ home state);4
• Use of the currency of an EU Member State (if the currency is different than the currency of the business’ home state);
• Use of a top-level domain name of an EU Member State;
• Mentions of customers based in an EU Member State; or
• Targeted advertising to consumers in an EU Member State.

Most people seem to be leaning toward just applying them to anyone as that’s the way things are headed and once you’ve figure out how to do it technically it’s easier to just do it all the same way. Also, the EU is doing it’s best to set precedent for a broad interpretation.

Can you be fined for underage drinking in another country when you return to the US? Is this kind of law valid that things you do in another jurisdiction where they are legal can be prosecuted at home? I’m really curious.

What will be the ramifications of her fleeing the state? Can they be avoided if she never comes back? This is disgusting. They want her to suffer and risk so much for a dead baby.

While I agree with you I’m many ways, the fact is my kid with lifelong genetic disorder has had two major surgeries paid for by marketplace insurance with no trouble at all and without pages and pages of medical history we used to have to fill out every time we changed jobs or renewed, which insurance company’s could and often did use not only to avoid paying for pre existing things, but also to try to deny any claim or even kick people off insurance for filling out the form wrong.

That one piece was hard won and worth a lot in my opinion, and I don’t trust Trump to mess with it. The guy is gonna be bankrupt, why does anyone think he’ll be doing anything other than selling the country for cash?

Thanks for this, I just looked up the same thing

I’m thinking it’s great for poor people, but it’s much more useful for the wealthy who make bigger single purchases that can be scheduled, so the state loses more potential revenue from the top. Though, I just checked and they seem to exclude higher prices items from the holiday, so my fears are unfounded.

McCarthy also gave a vague hint about his future plans: “I look forward to helping entrepreneurs and risk-takers reach their full potential.”

“The challenges we face are more likely to be solved by innovation than legislation,” he wrote.

Technocratic venture capital?

But doesn’t it mean that people who can time their big purchases escape paying? I’m thinking yachts and cars and luxury stuff. I guess it depends on the state how much of the revenue comes from that. Interesting the effect on municipal revenue. I had never heard of it.

“sales tax holidays”? Did sales tax just get more regressive?

Try them with plain yogurt. Cuts the grease somehow and good for you.

My point is the bill would be more interesting if it was not restricted to the TSA in an airport, but maybe they have to start somewhere?

I can actually well imagine them responding to use a Gmail or short list of major domains. Normies are normal and the companies want an email they can link to all the other data on the web.

What all of you fail to realize is that it’s literally the point of the project. To filter those “emails” that value privacy. Just like everyone has the right to use those privacy prioritized emails, website operators have a right to know. That is a 1:1 copy of the description of the project.

There is nothing in the article to suggest that the TSA programs’ errors have inconvenienced people as the agent is right there to correct it, and more scans improves the accuracy. I get what you’re saying, but the same biases are undoubtedly programmed into the brains of the agents and just as hard to eradicate.

There are many places I don’t want to see facial recognition employed, but where people are already mandated to positively identify themselves seems like a natural fit. I think the senators and the ACLU can find much more persuasive examples of overreach.

Yes, I think the second. You have a pool of 100 http clients and a queue of one million requests and a queue to accept the responses as the clients complete, and a little machine that waits for capacity in the client queue to send the next request until there are no more requests. If the response is important to this process, your machine is also pulling from the response queue as available and computing whatever it needs from that, for example to decide whether to abort the rest of the requests. Any other use of the responses can be handled outside this loop.

The other way would work fine, but I think it’s actually slightly more complicated and slower because you now have a queue of 10000 batches of 100 requests each and the machine has to watch for all one hundred clients to complete before sending off the next batch. Otherwise, it’s the same situation.

The TSA’s use of CAT-2 involves scanning a passenger’s face and comparing it to a scanned ID card or passport. The system can detect fake IDs “very quickly,” a TSA official told us in July, and is also able to verify the person is on any additional screening lists and is actually scheduled to travel in the next 24 hours.

This I’m ok with actually? The airport is already a place you expect to have to give your real identity to be there, and in the case of unfortunate people who share a name with a watchlist person this technology helps them travel normally without hours long interviews at every stop, I think mainly because the TSA agent can say the computer ok’d it instead of having to stick their neck out personally.

I guess the problem would be if the new scans of your face collected by this software are connected to your identity and/or travel data and then exported to third parties who didn’t already have that info.

Because by itself it isn’t really giving the TSA any new information. They have your id and your boarding pass. The government already knows who you are and where you’re going and this bill doesn’t stop them acquiring or keeping that information.

the next four years I wish I believed that was all that was at stake

I guess you’re just lucky :)

I’m pretty sure it’s the Eastern grey’s around the house. Not endangered in the slightest. [https://myodfw.com/wildlife-viewing/species/squirrels-chipmunks-and-marmots](Western grey squirrels have no brown color at all and are bigger. Don’t think I’ve ever seen one.)

They know they’re bad, they just want to blame that comic they saw once or anything else for it, because obviously they were meant to be angels unlike everyone else.
