    1. Total cost of ownership (TCO) addresses the total cost of software development from inception to sun setting. In 2011, the CRASH report stated the total cost of ownership for software code was $18/Line of Code (LOC). Of this, it is generally accepted that the majority of this cost is related to the maintenance of the software after its initial creation, with estimates ranging from 60-90%.

      $18 /LOC

    1. AI Boxing is attempts, experiments, or proposals to isolate ("box") a powerful AI (~AGI) where it can't interact with the world at large, save for limited communication with its human liaison. It is often proposed that so long as the AI is physically isolated and restricted, or "boxed", it will be harmless even if it is an unfriendly artificial intelligence (UAI).

    1. “To be scientifically literate is to empower yourself to know when someone else is full of shit.” ― Neil deGrasse Tyson
    2. “Conspiracy theory, like causality, works fantastically well as an explanatory model but only if you use it backwards. The fact that we cannot predict much about tomorrow strongly indicates that most of the explanations we develop about how something happened yesterday have (like history in general) a high bullshit content.” ― Peter J. Carroll, Psybermagick: Advanced Ideas in Chaos Magick
    1. The Map Is Not The Territory

      • The map is not the territory metaphorically illustrates the differences between belief and reality.
      • The phrase was coined by Alfred Korzybski.

      Scribbling on the map does not change the territory

      • If you change what you believe about an object, that is a change in the pattern of neurons in your brain.
      • The real object will not change because of this edit.

      The map is a separate object from the territory and the map exists as an object inside the territory

    1. 2. Worms A worm is similar to a virus; the difference is that worms spread on their own instead of attaching to a program and infecting it and others. A lot of the time, worms spread over a network, exploiting a vulnerability to jump from machine to machine. As they continue to recursively spread, worms infect machines at a faster rate. This wastes the network's bandwidth at a minimum, while nastier worms can spread ransomware or other problems across an entire business network.

      AAAAA

    2. 10. Exploits and Vulnerabilities While not a form of malware, exploits and vulnerabilities are important terms in online security. Because no programmer or software is perfect, every program, OS, and website has some kind of vulnerability. Malicious actors work to find these flaws so they can exploit them to run malware or similar. advertising function refreshcontentwordcount9(){ if(contentwordcount9Changed == 'false'){ googletag.cmd.push(function(){ googletag.pubads().refresh([contentwordcount9]); googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1555342976270-7'); }); contentwordcount9Changed = 'true'; }; }; For example, say someone discovered a bug that let you create a new admin account with no password in Windows by following certain steps. Someone could write malware to run these steps on someone's PC, get admin access, and then wreak havoc. The best way to stay safe from these threats is keeping your OS and all software up-to-date. Developers patch these problems as they find them, so staying on the latest version keeps you safe from old and known exploits.

    3. 8. Rootkit A rootkit (a term which merges the admin "root" account on Unix systems and the "kit" they use) is a type of malware that gains access to restricted parts of a computer and then disguises or otherwise hides itself. Typically, a rootkit gets installed when the attacker has admin (or root) access to a machine. Once the rootkit is installed, it has privileges to do whatever the owner wants on the system. Rootkits abuse this to hide their intrusion—for example, it might cloak its presence from the installed antivirus app. Obviously, a piece of malware having complete control over your system is quite dangerous. A lot of the time, you'll have to completely reinstall the OS to get rid of a rootkit.

      SSSSS

    4. 5. Spyware Spyware is another type of malware that can take several forms. It refers to programs that track your computer usage for some purpose and reports it back to an entity. Most programs—and even operating systems like Windows 10—collect data about your usage and report it back to the developer. They use this to improve their tools with real-world data. Proper spyware is distinguished by the fact that it collects this data without letting the user know. advertising function refreshcontentwordcount5(){ if(contentwordcount5Changed == 'false'){ googletag.cmd.push(function(){ googletag.pubads().refresh([contentwordcount5]); googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1555342976270-3'); }); contentwordcount5Changed = 'true'; }; }; While spyware often collects your data for advertising purposes, nastier spyware can also collect sensitive information like login credentials. Extreme spyware includes keyloggers, which are programs that record every keystroke you make on your machine.

    1. By keeping the price of ebooks high, publishers keep paperbacks as a valid option for readers. That way, the world of physical books isn't under threat of becoming extinct due to ebooks.

      Do you like this reason?

    2. If you're an avid reader, you may know the pain of losing or damaging your books. Ebooks, however, don't share this problem.

      How long do ebooks last?

      Has one of your ebooks ever become damaged?

      Have you ever lost an ebook?

    3. On top of this, ebooks are very convenient for the readers buying them. Buying a physical book involves going to a bookstore and hoping they have it in stock, or ordering it online and waiting for it to arrive. For ebooks, you go to a website, click the "Buy" button, and download the book to your PC or reader.

      Are people willing to pay for convenience?

    4. This constraint is the reason ebooks sometimes cost more than paperbacks. For example, a publisher can list the price of their physical book at $27.95 and the ebook at $20, which is a reasonable 30 percent markdown.

      Explain why ebooks sometimes cost more than physical books.

    5. Unlike with physical books, Amazon has no control over the price of ebooks. If someone has performed the steps required to publish an ebook via Kindle Direct Publishing, they set the price as they please, with no exceptions.

      Do you think this is true for authors who don't have a following?

    6. However, ebooks utilize the agency model when sold. Instead of letting the retailer choose the price, the publisher states what they're selling for. The publisher gets 70 percent of each transaction, and the retailer gets the remaining 30 percent.

      How is the pricing system for ebooks different from the one for physical books?

    7. Everything makes sense when you imagine all of the people who helped make the book who need paying. For one, the author has to get their agreed royalty cut from every sale. From there, the editors, proofreaders, cover artists, and marketers all need to be paid. These obligations don't leave the publisher with a lot of money for themselves.

      Who else needs to be paid besides just the author?

    8. a physical book takes around $1-2 to produce. If this is true, however, then why are they priced a lot more than that?

      Does this surprise you?

    1. To be fully compliant with GDPR, you would also need to enable Show Reject All Button setting.
    2. Consent Model. In the case of GDPR, you must choose the Opt-in. This means that you cannot start tracking people before the consent was given.
    3. This cookie consent notification is just a tool for getting consent, it’s not capable of managing your tracking tags because every website and every GTM container is unique, therefore there is no universal solution. As a result, you will have to manually update all your tracking tags with additional firing rules.
    4. Configuring OneTrust’s cookie consent solution is just half of the task. Your tracking scripts (like Google Analytics, Google Adwords, etc.) will still continue working as they always did unless you import my GTM recipe and then reconfigure all of your tracking tags. Yup, there’s a lot of manual work waiting ahead.

      I wonder if youtube keeps updating the app will it increase how long it says up? People like trendy things. I f youtube stays with the trends...

    3. YouTube TV will give you access to live TV from more than 40 providers

      I think most people watch youtube for free so this isn't even the part of the app that makes them the most money

    4. Just a few short years ago, there was a dearth of quality television streaming options for people desperate to cut the cord. If you wanted to watch live TV in any way, shape, or form, you needed to splash out on a costly cable subscription. Which was frustrating.

      I feel like at this point everyone takes the internet and youtube for granted
