What is it with making this a bureaucracy problem before addressing the fact that AI models are often fed data that doesn't belong to the company training the model, which has usually been gathered with methods that would be considered

Alright yeah, I can concur with the packaging of the library so that it would eventually link and be accepted by the App Store which is surprisingly not the same set of requirements. It's just that I didn't completely chalked th

It's a bit perplexing that an article that make some claims about QUIC speed over TCP has exactly zero benchmarks, numbers, anything to back that up besides theory. I could be inclined to believe it but I'd like to know by which f

Same. One side-effect I really like with it is really the complete freedom left to branch authors to do whatever the hell they want with their commits. Want to push your WIPs often? Do it. Want to experiment, commit, rollback, go someplac

It's not the right word. I have never used and will (in the foreseeable future) not use SQL. I already have a ton of stuff on my plate that I need or want to learn, SQL is not one of them and I won't include it "just because&

I can agree that it's not the most common case, but it's also out of necessity because there's multiple rust crates, for certain C & C++ libraries that are fundamental in some domains, that either: * do not exist yet * st

My (admittedly) limited experience with Cargo had me beeing forced to write a build.rs file, which, while neat for edge/complex cases, seems a little overkill for basic stuff like linking to a simple C library. I'm also not fond o

I find it funny that the headline states it as a general trend while it's looking at it only through the prism of "the finance/crypto industry struggles to find C++ developers". Maybe part of the problem is that people d

You need both. Companies collecting data on you directly or indirectly is a problem, even if they don't do anything malevolent with it (and some already do). The issue is that eventually they'll be breached, and then that data can

If anything, it incentivized the production of GPU artificially limited for the exact work needed for PoW. Good job!

That's another topic, but that's kind of my point: Valve weren't doing anything akin to kernel-level shenanigans, and even without that, some of the stuff they did already backfired because of privacy concerns. Since then, th

Very interesting to see this criticism in a topic about Valve, who don't go there with VAC, and are often criticized for not going the kernel level anti-cheat route (by a chunk of the playerbase that thinks it will solve cheating). The

The majority of people didn't know that they were tracked either, nor what that would actually involve. Tracking was imposed on end-users, not the tools/legislation that have had to emerge because of that.

I'm sorry, I don't know what to tell you (although your question sounds a bit rhetorical), and that's part of the problem in my opinion. It's so ubiquitous now that even if you want to get out of this duopoly, you can&#x
