What?
Unless you're thinking about the steady attrition as security researchers render obsolescence hashes, ciphers, and transport models (that really should've been replaced everywhere years ago) obsolete by developing effective attacks on them; I'm not sure what you're talking about.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

it was an irony comment about the "scandal" of https being unsecure some time ago. Probably it did sound better in my mind before I wrote it

While I realized Google's intend is good I suspect the net result of this...
Quote: Planned changes include labeling all HTTP pages with the red triangle warning symbol, currently only used for irregularities in HTTPS.
... will be to train users to ignore the warning when they click on a phishing link that points to:

Now where did I put those tiny little earbuds

I thought it's be really useful to have Bluetooth headphones, so I bought a pair but after a couple of weeks got so sick of them running out half way to work, and then not having charged headphones for the journey home, and then forgetting to charge them when I got home, I soon switched back to a decent set of wired 'phones.
I can't see the adapter being that helpful either, it's just another awkward shaped lump to fit in your pocket.

you’ll do it for a cut of the profit realized from the new business model.
Oh good grief. There's a lot of work out there that isn't "for profit." When I put together another website for these guys[^] (well, gals), there is no "cut" of the profit, they're a non-profit organization for Pete's sake!
Or when I do some work for another client, who has a fixed price contract for the services he provides, and the software I write is just a small piece, I can't go ask him for a cut of the profit, I'm already getting it, and there is no future profit.
I can't imagine trying to negotiate this kind of arrangement with a company like this[^]. Yeah, I'd like .01% of the profit of every satellite you build.
Heck, I've been contracted by companies that run a loss (often funded by VC)! What should I do then, pay them for hiring me???
The only time I get offered a cut of the profit is 1) when they have no money and 2) they have no idea whether they'll even be successful. And those I laugh and say thanks, but no thanks.

It might not be a terrible idea when a bunch of ifs hold true: if you have the right contacts, and the necessary sales skills, and the business acumen to determine when you'll profit from this approach and when you won't, and probably the right portfolio to show off...I can see it working in some cases.
As you mentioned, though, there are plenty of circumstances where it's just not possible to ask for a cut of the profit. One would probably have more success in anchoring price to value delivered (e.g. "This project will save you $100k a year for the next 5 years, so paying me $25k to complete it is a bargain") rather than just (hours * hourly rate). It is again highly dependent on sales ability, or having a good network of prior clients who know you get things done. And it's still a non-starter in a ton of scenarios, especially any project where an RFP is involved.

Employees commonly install personal apps on devices they also use for work. Often, employees don’t think twice about whether an app they’re using could potentially expose their corporate network to risk. Just go back to rotary phones with a switchboard operator

Also new is the long-rumored dual camera system, stereo speakers, and a darker black color scheme. Wow. I'm shocked. Who knew this was coming?

No headphone jack is a no-go for me. I don't like bluetooth devices, and I like to hear through both ears, especially when on a mobile phone where the other end is in a conference room on a bad speakerphone, and you can barely make out the conversation with two ears!

The phone will come with Lightning port wired EarPods and a Lightning to 3.5mm head phone jack adapter (for folks who just can't leave behind "tech" from 1878).

I take that you do not use knives in kitchen - they are "tech" from, I don't know, 4000 BC or earlier?

No, because it does not answer my needs satisfiably. But I still use cars with internal combustion engines (1900 technology), firearms with metallic cartridges (1860's), wired phonesets (late 1800?) because they solve the problem they were created for, in a reasonable cost effectiveness.
So do current headphones - they transduct electrical signals to soundwaves in a cheap way with adequate quality and low space occupation. They can fail only in a limited number of ways, are of easy repair and maintenance and have an extremely long usage life. The standard is, well, standard so any stereo 3.5mm jack is suitable for any headphone set with a 3.5mm jack independently from maker and age - with digital protocols that is not the case as they change way too fast (and pointlessly).
