   Tax incentives to businesses are legion. They just need to be notified to the EU and pre-approved to be valid, otherwise they're null and void. https://competition-policy.ec.europa.eu/state-aid_en

   This goes to reduce Ireland's public debt, which was about 140 billion euros as of 2022. 10 % debt reduction overnight (albeit accrued over 20 years) is no small impact for a country. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series&

   Funny to read such a comment while the US government is busy trying to keep a 5-10 years advantage in microchip manufacturing over China, and so far they may have succeeded simply by blocking one machine manufacturer (ASML). A company like

   Speaking of which, does anyone use offline Microsoft Defender updates (maybe to have direct control of canary/staggered updates)? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/linux-su...

   The problem with cybersecurity is that it's impossible to prove a negative. So it's easy to sell products which produce tangible downsides in return for hypothetical upsides.

    Thanks for confirming. Is there any valid reason these updates couldn't be distributed through proper package repositories, ideally open repositories (especially data files which can't be copyrightable anyway)? How does Wazuh do i

    Interesting. How was the faulty upgrade distributed? Not from Debian archives I assume.

    The corroboration does come from people inside: from the emails they wrote, which were released as part of court proceedings.

    Sure. They'll do it by using seemingly neutral language to mask reality, like "a world leader in fast delivery uses our software to automate its prospects generation and evaluation".

    Worst is, nowadays such bloated "security" software is being forced onto Linux servers too... every time I check why something feels slow, Microsoft Defender is hogging resources.

    Thanks. It's helpful to mention the specific features needed, as people often mean different things when discussing PWAs. I see https://letter.open-web-advocacy.org/ says «critical features including integration with

    Setting the agenda matters. This drama probably made more people and businesses aware of the DMA and may influence the focus of some participants. For example, there's an "Apple DMA compliance workshop" in two weeks, to which

    50 microseconds is a lot . I'm looking at disk read latency on a bunch of baremetal servers (nothing fancy, just node_disk_read.* metrics from node-exporter) and one of the slowest fleets has a median disk read latency barely above 1
