Alternatively, if your site needs a level of security where you need this type of "live" patching,
why is this only applicable in high security applications? why can't it be used to fix bugs in user interfaces?
Y'know those "Warranty Void If Removed" stickers they put on electronics? Y'know those painted tamper-proof screws they put in your Mac? They put those there to stop you fucking around inside the box, because you can easily fuck things up and they won't know how to fix it.
"tamper proof screws" if they are "tamper proof" then why can you get compatible screwdrivers from about 10,000 different places on the internet?
stickers don't actually "stop" anyone, the point is that you're on your own if you break the seal.
A binary file has an implied "Warranty Void If Removed" sticker on it.

If you are able to type on your computer and get on the internet and there are no bullets flying around your head and the electricity and water are functioning, I'd say your elected politicians are doing a pretty good job.
we still need to fix all these horrible taxi regulations.
can you please provide some evidence of the bad economic effect of these regulations? If they "need" to be fixed then surely there must be a terrible problem.
How do real taxis solve the problem of imposter drivers? Is there a regulation against imposter drivers?
perhaps you could bother to look at the picture on the hack license, it should match the driver.
How is this different that if I get into an accident as a passenger in a friend's car? Is this a huge issue? Should I refuse to let friends drive me anywhere?
If the uber driver's insurance company decides that he is carrying commercial passengers without commercial insurance, then yes, there is a difference. You won't get any coverage in the uber driver's car, and you will in your friend's car.
and in the meantime the economy starves because nobody can get anywhere
Why legislate paper bags? Apparently because there is a plant that manufactures paper bags in the Portland metropolitan area.
You've been a human for how many years now? And you are still surprised by basic human behavior?
they're better at regulating taxi drivers via their technology than local taxi commissions are via paperwork?
Gosh as a profit-making corporation, will they even care at all about regulating taxi drivers? Their shareholders will tell them most emphatically that they need to spend as little as possible on regulation so that they will have maximum dividend payouts.
...by providing a convenient service that the public wants
yes indeed the public wants to ride in uninsured taxis so they will have to pick up their own medical bills if there is an accident
In that case you do not get into the car,
HOW CONVENIENT! Maybe you should try calling a REAL TAXI if you actually want to get somewhere.
what you are allowed to do with your car
You can do whatever the fuck you want to with your own car on your own property. But when you take it out on government provided roads and engage in commerce with government-supplied currency, you have to play by their rules.
Taxi drivers regularly rape and/or assault passengers.
Do you REALLY assert that the answer to this problem is to have more and more unregulated taxi drivers?
