If you think private equity will be milder, you're in for a bad surprise. Most of the enshittification you see around you stems from private equity.

I'm not sure if this is true though? Granted I live in Europe where topics like these get a lot of attention, but I can't recall when I last saw a plastic bag drifting about, both home and abroad.

Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I recall reading somewhere that single use plastic bags are so cheap from production to destruction that they still make more environmental sense than totes and the like. Yes, the cotton b

Being a good fit for a given purpose doesn't mean that something is in good taste. That piece of code is very performant, yes, but I'm pretty sure none of us would want to meet it in code review, save for a few niche edge cases. T

Having a vulnerability is very different to getting hacked though. To date, there hasn't been a single breach of Estonia's ID system itself as far as I know, correct me if I'm wrong? And that's saying something given the

In some other context I'd be inclined to agree, but I swear the moment there's an open benchmark, it's going to get gamed by someone. So long as there's money to be made, the incentives don't align, look at Volkswag

I don't really see what you mean? It's well known and widely accepted that environmental factors influence gene expression. Social factors are a very large part of our environment.

If you're compiling millions of documents, many with thousands of pages, you probably need something very universal. LaTeX is boring tech, off the shelf, ready to use. It might take some work to figure out the initial setup with regard

To be fair, the M4 Max is such a beefy machine that you could do a lot of things wrong and still not notice it.

The whole point of confidential computing is that the cloud provider can't access your data and can't tell what you're doing with it. This is a must have requirement in many government contracts and other highly legislated fi

This doesn't actually answer the question in any way though. Say you've already built the thing that works and then split it up, then what?

Maturity can be many things, but complaining about internet brownie points is not one of them, at least as far as I'm concerned. People disagree with all kinds of things and that's fine, that comes with the territory of having an

I think it's easy to see what they mean, even if you don't agree with them. I think it puts too much emphasis on glass as there's so much more that goes into getting a shot. I do pick up my old film cameras every now and then

Unfortunately it isn't just Sony, every Canon I've ever owned has had trash wifi. It must be one of those teams in an org that's an afterthought of an afterthought.

This is roughly what reader mode is, no? Safari ships it out of the box, although it's very hit or miss as far as my experience with it goes. But I like the idea.

Replace Shopfiy with Microsoft, Oracle or etc and surely you can see what worries people might have around a move like this. Just because a company has a positive imago does not mean that their motives align with that of the community.

And in similar vein, when was the last time you read the manual for a household appliance?

This is advice that gets thrown around a lot, but it's missing the important bit of how to buy a meter that's both reasonably accurate and affordable. There are countless articles online showing how widely commonly sold meters var

Judging by Google Flights, the tickets start from five hundred or so each, so I don't really see anyone putting a real dent in this. Unless it's actually Elon Musk who could literally book all the flights full, should he so desire

What do you mean next five years? Tools like this have existed nearly as long as phishing has been a thing. You don't need a model and whatnot, this is old, boring tech.

For one, running an effect on every render and running it whenever referenced variables change are two very different behaviors and not universally interchangeable. For two, this is exactly what I mean with leaky abstractions. The fact that

If this was the case, why do we need to define the dependency list to begin with? If this was both the mainline right thing to do and the compiler can do it, why are we doing it manually? In that case we could just as well omit it by defaul

I'm not so sure. As a whole, yes, global warming is a huge issue, but one shale gas well alone will surely have very marginal effect on that. Comparing that to the fact that it can seriously contaminate groundwater and air in your immi

The environmental issues with shale gas are local, if you ignore global warming as a whole. So in that sense, not doing it in your own back yard makes a lot of sense.

The global reduce motion and reduce transparency settings help you a little, but that only goes so far.
