Just FYI: The App Store has an Education Edition which is the “same app but paid up front”.

Also agree. “What” build the system though? (Humans) Edit: and more important who governed the system, ie made decisions about maintainance, staffing, training, processes and so on

I agree but then again it’s always a humans fault in the end. So probably a root cause will have a bit more neuance. I was more thinking of the possible headlines and how that would potentially affect the public AI debate. Since this event

The fun is really gonna start if the root cause of this somehow implicates an AI as a primary cause.

Doubling the Price of something today and then tomorrow putting it on 50% sale (at the same price as yesterday). That’s illegal in EU. As it should be.

No browser or browser extension that I know of, but it may exist. I always circumvent it by just never clicking links sent to me (mail, sms, WhatsApp, etc). If I get a mail from, for example, Netflix that says there is a problem with my bil

Clicking a link can be more than enough to “get hacked”; you don’t always need to enter credentials. So yes, unfortunately the correct answer is either to have the whitelist of domains in your head (BUT this is also very risky due to homogr

I have worked on such teams. Mostly, even. I would not accept any PRs with code doing any of those things (human or machine made). Small(er) teams on small to medium sized projects. Critical solutions, but small(er) projects with 2-4 devs,

This seems good from the attendie’s point of view. I would love a similar post on the culture for calling meetings. There are too many “I don’t want to make an effort to understand/solve issue X so I’ll just create a meeting with every

Well with women you just have to act like you don’t care, and stop showing an interest. So stop with the pull requests and start submitting some push requests.. (This is satie for those of you who needs to have it spelled out :-)

At this level (govt, 6 figure+ deals) I would at least consider if this problem should have a non-tech solution, and instead have a legal/lawyer solution. In my experience (not US based though) the govt contracts are under compliance p

> first signs of pulling back investments I agree with you, but I’m curious; do you have link to one or two concrete examples of companies pulling back investments, or rolling back an AI push? (Yes it’s just to fuel my confirmation bias

Yes, my mistake I was thinking Europe based (but having said that Swiss have stricter privacy laws than EUs GDPR and is a considered adequate for data transfer).

Proton for me. Privacy is a priority and it’s EU based plus zero knowledge. Downsides are you need to use proton client or web UI. The proton suite now also features other useful (and secure) apps like Drive, Password manager, etc. I’m not

Cloudflare could be considered a point of failure and is another level of complexity compare to doing your own LB (the extra is the external org — actually extra both in terms of tech and of compliance). Have you considered doing your own H

Generally, nope. IANAL but fundamentally there are personal rights you just cannot sign away. E.g. even if you sign an employment contract saying explicitly that you have zero vacation (just an example), it just won’t be valid. Another big

Its disgusting that every thing always have to be exploited for profit. And then companies use part of that money to lobby (ie effectively pay off) politicians to let them do it. And it’s even legal. Simply discussing.

This. Even though you/we are [mostly] focusing on the tech aspect of the world, make no mistake; the “business side” (or the political) can kill your migration project more suddenly and decidedly than you can spell ‘strangler pattern’.
