This option is available already in the form of closed-source proprietary software. If someone wants a package manager where all projects mandate verifiable ID that's fine, but I don't see that getting many contributors. And I als

Yep I agree. Iterations are still good, demos are still good, ever-evolving scope discussions are still good, regardless of the overarching methodology.

Yes, but expanded to the full deadline instead of only the short iterations. The business does not care about week long deadlines. They need something on May 23 so they can achieve _______. My understanding of Scrum (not representative of a

I've never been bothered by Windows's changes, and I mostly think they were reasonable. But for a number of reasons it's never going to be easy for them to gain total acceptance: 1) the massive backwards compatibility back to

The built-in assistant already does a great job of this, so whatever they do with Grok they'll want it to be better in some way. Like, "help me find songs similar to..." or "help me find that one song by that one guy wit

It'll get there. Initial implementation was just talk to Grok . Now it has improved to allow adjustments to navigation routes.

I don't have a problem with that. First off it's not very common. Second off it can add to a conversation, just as it can with in-person discussions. If you feel like it doesn't, don't upvote and don't reply. There&

"makes users less safe" They don't believe that. It makes it more difficult to deal with governments, is all. Big Brother needs your messages from time to time, and TikTok is not willing to risk getting shut down to argue aga

It's all about not doing the same thing, whatever that same thing may be. I switch between trackball and mouse as each one gets a bit uncomfortable.

Is this one possibility? - Buy cheap IOT device - Isolate it on guest network - IOT device is compromised (or shipped that way) - IOT device now has clear access to traffic on both your guest and primary networks Is that accurate?

That sounds like a good comparison.

I've never used OpenClaw but as I understand it, it has a way of keeping a pseudo memory for context? That alone would be interesting, even if it was only allowed to read the generic internet. Like having a little robot buddy that reme

You are correct to be suspicious, but don't be impressed by backflips. Those are just for show. Doing "real work" is the test. As is doing real work for a compelling price.

That's a lot of qualifiers. And replace "humans" with "cameras" and I'm reminded that despite their well-intentioned efforts Volvo has failed there already.

I get pretty ticked when people shine laser lights in my direction regardless of their intensity, so I'm not too thrilled about the idea of invisible lasers hitting me square in the pupil without my knowledge.
