to be honest, after the whole thing with the note 7 i'm not sure i like hearing about vague "battery issues" relating to medical devices any more than i like hearing about them being an open kill switch for your heart

LeftistMuslimObama posted:medical devices are some of the most deeply, troublingly flawed pieces of computer you will ever encounter. companies go to extreme lengths to define the domain the device covers just so to avoid fda regulation (which, lol if that still even exists in 2 years) and will always do the bare minimum required by the loosest interpretation of the regs then fight it out in court. they don't give a poo poo at all about the patient's safety at all because they have the patient over a barrel (you need the device or you die). the worst timeline. at least in deus ex it's part of a massive conspiracy

actually doing the full backup restore procedure for real just to test if it works? that's crazy! waste of time! it's just copying files from point a to point b! nothing can go wrong! do it all the time! dead simple! i mean we even keep the backups in a network share on a raid array just to make sure it's as simple as possible

i think the idea is that they know it's bullshit, but by forcing pirates to download a crack in addition to the game itself they increase the chance of those filthy thieves getting a bad case of the cryptolocker which is exactly what they deserve the fuckers. this is basically the only way any of it makes sense

Jabor posted:You can run credit card transactions with as little as a name and a number. Asking for more information is just about mitigating fraud risk. If you follow best practices and ask for everything, your payment provider eats the cost of fraud rather than passing it on to you. can you rephrase that in terms of equations or point me to some paper or something else that does no seriously i'm not being sarcastic, i'm actually curious about the sort of models people use to compute these things
