Also known as dynamic or personalized pricing, surveillance pricing is when a store charges different shoppers different prices for the same item at the same time, based on something the store “knows” about them as an individual. ... American consumers are subject to dynamic pricing millions of times every day when they are buying airline tickets online, using Uber, or ordering anything on Amazon.com.
Airplane tickets and Uber I was familiar with. I wasn't totally aware Amazon did that too.
There are two types, by map and token to conform to different usecases.
Ahh, ok... I'm seeing the docs.
ShareType: type of share
token: token-based share (do not require user authentication)
map: map-based share (requires user authentication)
Ahh, ok. So whether you need authentication or not.
There are also two different storage types, csv and files.
And the docs for that...
CSV
One CSV file containing one row per sharing config, separated by ; and containing header with columns from above.
If given, properties are stored in JSON format in CSV.
Files
File-based configuration store is using encoded PathOrToken as filename for each config. File contains the data stored as "dict" in binary Python "pickle" format (same is also used for item cache files).
So if you want plaintext vs binary storage.
you have to edit your config file with the ‘[sharing]’ section.
Would you mind sharing your config, pretty please. 🙏
Ah, nice. I actually didn't realize that. They are also open source friendly https://tailscale.com/opensource I don't hate Tailscale, btw. They seem nice.
But, I like Netbird lets you self-host the server components. And, an important feature for me, is that Netbird doesn't require me to create an account with Big Tech to use the service. Right now I created a dummy account with GitHub just to use Tailscale, Netbird just allows me to create a username and password. E-Z P-Z. No extra hoops to jump through.
After switching to Netbird, I'll be able to get completely off of GitHub.
Nope. I'm trying to move further away from US proprietary tech, not towards it. I'm currently using Tailscale, but I'm looking at moving to Netbird because it's open source and European.
for why using it "responsibly" is super hard, even if you're an expert. We're hardwired to take mental shortcuts, so we might not even realize we're using heuristics or falling for cognitive biases when fact checking the AI.
Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) (orgs that dentists use to help them with the business side of things) treat dentists more like sales people and push more expensive and unnecessary procedures.
Dental insurance doesn't work like health insurance, it's more like a discount coupon for the dentist and the limits for coverage are really low.
That's like the most incredibly hard part of all of this. Everything is aligned so that you don't use it responsibly. And it's really hard to guard against this.
Just a few days ago, I was pairing with a coworker and he was using Claude to do a bunch of stuff. He didn't check any of it. I thought he was gonna check stuff before pushing stuff... And nope! I said, "Wait, shouldn't we review the changes to make sure they're correct?" And he said, "Nah, it's probably fine. I trust it. Plus, even if it's wrong, we'll just blame the AI and we can just fix it later."
...
Yes, checking the work would have negated all of the "time saved" and he was being a lazy fuck.
People who don't like coding or engineering use this and they are not interested in using this responsibly.
