We are well and truly fucked! There's just no way people are going to accept exponential and non-linear worsening conditions, before after step 99 of 100.

They should state the truth in first year: We have absolutely no final answers for you, and these years will soon be forgotten. You'll earn more earlier taking any job now. Education is overrated in business anyway.

It's just the author acknowledging all the code written belongs to some company or organization, and often, can't even be used as a showcase. It was work for money, plain and simple, but may become a hard sell later. However, it&#

Anyone can increment an ID or try to inject sql. 30 years of security practices shows white/grey hat hacking to be a good thing, and should be expected. GDPR even makes poor security finable. Cyberdefence also requires more security ex

Chapters in our lives are closing and opening all the time. This is a happening all on its own. We get ourselves into trouble when we try to force events, or feelings for that matter. Especially when comparing ourselves with the surfaces of

Plans for crime can be a crime though. Law is complicated! :P

They're all bad is something said in retarded countries like China and Russia. It becomes truth because action becomes oppressed.

Base64 is a well-known plain-text encoding format. Using it as an encryption format violates privacy laws.

You can bind C-S-c and C-S-v and other keystrokes, to get similar to what you get in a terminal.

Sure, but I found this phrase a bit bombastic: "The spectrum is not a gradient." Good find though, that was probably what sparked the sub-thread. I replied to you in further posts that I see both perspectives. So can now conclude

For sure. Note, I never disagreed with the author, and even provided links of my own. Not every post is a disagreement, at least not from me ;) From the TEDx-talk, it does seem like the typical spectrum/gradient understanding is lackin

At this point, I think we're just talking beside each other's points. My first post, as a reply to other posts, is just about spectrum and gradients, really being the same, but there's a duality between the continuous frequen

The article touches on it. This TEDx talk goes into more depth below the "gradient" level: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cF2dhWWUyQ4 I won't claim to be an expert how it differentiates across "groups&q

I can't speak for macOS, but on Linux using Nix as package manager is relatively painless once you follow a recipe such as this one: https://www.tecmint.com/nix-package-manager-for-linux/ There may be bugs with pa

Sure. By going into the perception part of frequency, or even psychology, we go more into the subjective. We can start to see colors, or types/groups of people's minds. This can help with understanding differences, in groups, type

You can say everyone is unique (unique categories), but you can also say everybody is human (one category). Being gradients/spectrum _is_ the model. All models about life will be flawed, unprecise and pretty shallow. It's importan

by _y5hn 5y ago
A typical spectrum is the exact same thing as gradients of frequencies. The difference is just in interpretation and actionable mitigations. You can operate on both levels of such a model, for different purposes and effects.

Even for FOSS, teams actually have to market, sell and maintain their product too. Doesn't matter if you built the greatest thing ever if nobody knows about it or recommends it. Often, organic growth just can't beat the competit

It was more of a general question. Copilot seems to be software to undermine FOSS, and fits in a general pattern ie. the purchasing of github, VSCode (I'm learning Doom Emacs now). It's all the same things as the past 3 decades th

I believe random comments often become extra clutter and diversions from actual code. Code should have short, succinct names that explain in context. What we should do is document the code, short and consise description of classes, methods

Just installed Chromium instead of Chrome on my linux workstation. Heck, you can even deploy your own private cloud locally with FOSS. It's all a spectrum, with free learning material everywhere. Yes, some of thr licenses and agreement

So how is this practice a benefit to anybody but Microsoft? Who takes on the legal risks?

The problem here is having any care for platforms such as twitter, tik tok, github. These problems are the same issues they were 20 years ago, and why FSF states it's about Freedom.

Try Doom Emacs. You can turn off evil-mode and tweak init.el to get most packages out-of-the-box, even all the language server mode-stuff of VSCode. Check which dependencies are needed and find out how to install them most cleanly, either u
