I was used to the more common Heisenbug, but I find Higgs-Bugson more funny.

Not "by design", as historically the hell came first. It was only much later that they catholic church started talking about the purgatory and the possibility of reducing your punishment by paying money.

> 10,000 year old fish traps in my old home region are still in operation... You mean that the design is so old or that the traps themselves are?

Interesting, I didn't know about the time change due to gravity. Thank you for the explanation.

Great piece! However, I think there's something you literally got "upside-down": AFAIK it's our head that ages slower than our feet, due to the face that it is moving faster.

Well, I'm a FOSS supporter but, given the current situation, I would be happy if we had European big tech.

Yes, but you have less people that can look at such commits. It's not so easy to claim that one is intrinsically more secure than the other. As someone in the cybersecurity field, I prefer FOSS software. But the situation is more nuanc

You can actually use it for free, I don't know if that's just for private use, or if it's something like Nextcloud that you can self-host for free.

Kudos for keeping your devices for so long, I also try to have mine last as long as it's practical, but so far i didn't manage to have them last so long. Unfortunately, you're in a minority. Most people would change their pho

So the cost is there, it's just not paid (directly) by the developer. But we all end up paying someone else's externalized cost, included said developer that is paying some other developers' externalized costs.

Of course you can't protect yourself from everything. But you can still pick a reasonable threat model and act accordingly.

So, in the end, your point is not whether the ICC should have the right to put foreign presidents on trial. It's about who has got the strongest military power.

Do you think the same about the Nuremberg trials? Why?

They likely mean that you already have in there all what is needed to change your laptop WiFi card's MAC address, without needing an additional application.

I think companies will try with a strongly worded letter first, as this would save them money over straight going to court. But I get that the risk may not be worth it for many people, I myself would be very scared if I received a letter th

The article's author mentioned speaking with some telco people, which apparently weren't aware of any resiliency emergency plan. Maybe there's some difference between EU countries and the USA on this.

Throw-in a USB key with a Linux distro that works with your Mac. You could also flash Ventoy on it, so that you can have multiple distros in case you end up needing to boot some other machine.
