There is a separate project (now also managed by the AT Museum) called the hiker yearbook, which collects phone numbers and emails along with pictures. It looks like the first one may have been published in 2014.

I can certainly see that there are some fundamental issues with assigning software engineers the level of responsibility that structural engineers have. That said, from what I've heard, crowdstrike seems like a great example of somethi

The article you shared says that Kaspersky filed a complaint, but I didn't see a clear statement there about what the outcome was. I do now see other reputable sources reporting that an agreement was reached in 2009 where Microsoft pro

I believe what philistine is suggesting is that Microsoft could have implemented their own security offering using a safer alternative like eBPF, and then opened that interface to competitors as well. I think that would have been a proactiv

If you’re wrong about the loop, you’ll still hit BPF_MAXINSNS, so it’s fine to use heuristics that could produce a false negative right?

That sounds like an argument towards Microsoft not allowing third party drivers like this, or at least strongly discouraging them and making it clear that it breaks the warranty. Didn't Apple do this with deprecating kexts? (maybe that

It seems like GitHub encourages that? I mean, emoji reacts to issue comments? Not really sure what the point of that is besides "driving engagement". I guess the argument for it is that it lets people easily "get involved&quo

I was looking into this recently and it seems like the cheapest AWS instance with a CUDA GPU is something on the order of $1/hr. It looks like an H100 instance might be $15/hr (although I’m not sure if I’m looking at a monthly pri

I would love to hear proposals about what a good and fair society under these conditions could look like. 20k people live in the county and it sounds like there really isn't any way to meaningfully increase housing supply. So who gets

do you think this can be done at the level of commits in a PR, or is there a big advantage to making it multiple PRs?

Is there any reliable source for this? It's an interesting claim, but I'm skeptical because I don't think anyone had any idea what a huge success RPi would be. The idea that it was all a monopoly play by Broadcom is something

Open source software seems to be winning? I mean, the whole point is that people want SBCs running Linux. I think it's probably fair to say that open source hardware is not winning. I'm not sure I'd say it's "losing

I see the Raspberry Pi model B+ available right now on Adafruit for $30. It has a single core 700 MHz CPU and 512M RAM. The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is available right now for $15 with a 1 GHz 64 bit quad core CPU and 512 MB RAM. So it seems t

My interpretation of the underlying study is that 53.4% of the asian women who developed cancer in the study were nonsmokers, which I believe is subtly different from what you said. But I think what NBC wrote on the graph is pretty unambigu

I think your interpretation is correct, but I'm not convinced it's just a matter of ambiguity. It looks to me like the caption on the graph is stating something that simply isn't true.
