Exactly this.

Bought the XPS 15, unpacked it, touched it and sent it back on the same day.

I am not paying 2k for a laptop that wobbles.

I guess I am the only one happy with the new macpro keyboard lol.

Not correct. They can't contact without positive consent. How can they prompt consent if they can't contact them in the first place?

Agreed

How is GDPR pro business if companies had to stop contact costumers?

Can you imagine how much businesses are ilegal now? Telemarketing is ilegal now, consultancy companies can't recruit new people via email or phone. People are yet to realize the true impact of GDPR.

Are you aware that GDPR made every business that relied on finding costumers trough phone or email ilegal?

How can you defend a legislation that makes everyone illegal, even outside your jurisdiction?

Nothing will happen to companies outside the EU. You can violate GDPR freely.

There is no possible way they can enforce any law, fine or penalty outside their borders. They won't even try.

It's not. If you have any legal disagreement with a company outside the EU they tell you to complain on that company origin.

I experienced this myself. EU is absolutely powerless outside their borders.

Until there is an open source micro chip i won't believe that any security protocol is not being cheated.

Looks like Intel is trying to avoiding the best solution to not compromise benchmark scores.

What about Ubuntu users? Is the update our already?

ahhahah

This could be a movie.

Someone should do a movie out of this. One of the most amazing histories i have ever heard and it's not over yet.

I had nightmares about this during the project. I am not even joking.

I have had a job where they tried to implement emails 4 times. The last attempt is still ongoing and in my opinion destined to fail.

They wanted to implement few dozen of auto generated emails with huge content.

The task was suspended 3 times, always because of the same thing: cost. Its insanely costly and hard to make a good looking cross platform email. After every suspension there were new design changes to implement so we ended up starting almost from scratch in every attempt.

I worked on it for a bit and i can assure you email clients are the biggest shit. Specially Gmail and Outlook.

A few highlights:

* Javascript not allowed.

* Outlook processes HTML and CSS with a specific engine which is also used in Microsoft Word.

* Outlook does not support paddings.

* Gmail requires the styles to be all inline.

* We followed Foundation Zurb recommendations and used tables all over. Still didn't work on all clients.

Humanity urgently needs to replace the emails with something else. Not only because the clients suck but because the protocol is outdated.

Use C++.

If you ever decide to scale and distribute it for real save the state in a database and orchestrate containers. For this solution i would recommend using Node.js or Go.

1 - How is REST complex?

2 - That is only true if the your bottleneck is on communication somehow. Usually it is not.

And a huge advantage: You will write stateless and easy to scale apps that do not care how the machine resources are being handled.

Its not up to me to know how to manage processes or threads. That's the SO task, not mine.

My app should be stateless and scale by replication. This is the most efficient solution in every possible way.
