Hey that’s pretty smart! Fradulent, but very smart. I was honestly expecting botnet. I expect many cameras of “dubious” origin are used for similar tasks, same with most “smart” devices with sufficient horsepower.

Climate change will almost surely increase growing seasons and agricultural productivity in higher latitudes (for some crops). It will be extremely crop and cultivar dependent, I expect lots of R&D to go into crops that can deal with wi

The issue is recognition. Everyone can see and admire shiny tools. Very few people can look at an empty editor or stub and see a good new product/feature. So lots of focus on tools, because lots can see it, and little focus on the wh

bah, all is not lost. Climate change will create winners and losers. Losers -- anyone on the equator or within the the tropic of cancer/capricorn. Winners -- those outside those regions or with enough $ to adapt. Give me solar geoengin

Very impressed at net cost. I used to run a small ecom business targeting total prices in the range of $3-10. At $3, payment processing is nearly 11-12% of costs, which is absurd, more if you amortize the occasional chargeback/fraud. L

Because it isn't about CSAM, IMO. You see this with plenty of social issues, notably firearms ownership. The claim is we will restrict/license/outlaw xyz for the kids, but really, a data-drive approach would have focused on d

feature velocity >> feature stability. Core libs/software have never been better, eg I have had much better luck with stuff like ffmpeg and virsh than ever before. If it has a UI and targeted at consumers though? Bug city.

Here's an idea for you -- property evaluation. It's not hyper-specific to your monitoring system, but it would be very interesting to understand before buying a house: 1. How loud the neighbhorhood is over time periods, eg sat nig

Agentic loops are being promoted by the same people selling tokens, abstracting away the cost per token, and doing everything in their power to obfuscate costs. I think a senior dev/architect + some good models is still the goated comb
