If I ever receive monetary compensation for violation of the license on my repositories, I will personally deliver it to you in cash. It won't happen. I have a feeling Copilot is more of a tool for publicity than for development.

BlackRock might skew the average there.

Unfortunately the mantra of "ain't broke, don't fix" is law at some companies. Pushing IPv6 will be met with immediate resistance because it brings no benefits but does add the risk of something not supporting it yet.

It doesn't, just a little obfuscation in certain functions. Some parts of that I already know how they work from other people/prior work. I don't think there is a better candidate actually, besides a tiny DOS-like game writte

I started reverse engineering a game about 3 months ago with no prior experience. It is insanely difficult. I like to think that I have very good pattern recognition and investigative skills, I find most problems surmountable given enough t

My employer has made 2 days a week in the office mandatory this week. I've already decided that if it creeps up to 3 days, I'll be out of there and looking for a new job, probably remote. It's not that I don't like being

Vaping is fairly popular, safe, and satisfies the urge for most people. What's the market for this device?

A few questions if I may. I administer a few thousand machines which are provisioned using Puppet, and I've had my eye on a more immutable style of administration integrating K8S. - How does Talos handle first getting on to the net

There's a difference between saying "bah, it's all insecure, let's just give in to the surveillance", and recognising that there is nothing on the market that actually makes strides toward foolproof security. Rememb

We use Bitbucket Cloud and I can attest to this. The quality just seems to get worse and worse. Bi-weekly outages, 10 minute PR merges, very late webhook calls, profile pictures not showing for some unknown reason. It is almost criminal tha

Sorry, but Linux phones are a joke. The sad reality is that there is nothing on the market today that provides the security most of us here want.

Why are all of the members of Congress extremely wealthy? Doesn't seem particularly representative of the general population. Members of the UK Parliament are generally upper-class, but they're not all extremely wealthy.

I hope when the next Chicxulub-scale asteroid approaches Earth that humanity will be ready to tackle it. If that's even possible. Armageddon style?

Agreed. The parent comment makes a ridiculous extrapolation.

Cat and mouse game. The foundations of computing must be completely reworked if we are to ever have any real security.

This is beyond regulation - these tools are infringing on human rights. But frankly, I don't mind what sales the State of Israel permits, they're free to do what they want. However, I would be upset if the government of my own hom

Disgusting. When the topic of commercial "cyberweapons" comes up, I immediately wonder about the people who created them. How they can sleep at night knowing how tools of their design are used. I'd argue that it's a comp

When you really think about it, almost nobody can be sure that their conversations are end-to-end encrypted. The only way you can be is to verify the fingerprint on both ends, provided you have exchanged fingerprints over a medium known to

What makes it dangerous? Genuine question, I've never summited a mountain. Although I did get a fair way up Mount Snowdon before some people coming down strongly advised me to throw in the towel and start my way down before it got dark

I have a lot of respect for the VFIO crowd but speaking as an administrator of Linux systems myself, I didn't ever find the effort or pain worth it. I run a native Windows 10 system for games because the last thing I want after a workd

On a very orthogonal note, I downloaded the official VMs once in the past hoping that it would be like a premade Windows 'rootfs' that I could base my own installation on, like how Canonical provides the (very tiny) Ubuntu Base ro

I spent about an hour looking into putting Nix on my work MacBook but the installation seemed too complicated and I couldn't find any official documentation. I frankly just don't want to have to create a volume, that's a pain

Recently I've been feeling more and more detached from work. I thought about taking annual leave but I'm covering for my boss who just went on paternity leave. My employer also coerced (forced) us to take a big chunk of our annual

I don't even know where to begin with this one. Ever heard of IPOs? That seems like a pretty useful utility of the stock market. Why even compare a "currency" to the stock market? They are two different things.

I've been waiting for a crash for years so that the parasites looking to "get rich quick" leave and the discussion can return to technical matters like privacy, scalability, and ease of use instead of Elon Musk's latest

Cryptocurrency has no real world utility. It's a tool for gambling, speculative investment, and pump-and-dump schemes. There, I said it. I was an Ethereum enthusiast back in 2017, but it didn't take long for me to see that cryptoc

Colin's channel is entertaining but it's as synthetic as TV. He has a team of people, probably has planning permission for the whole thing, and so on.

Yep. HSBC's frontend code screams outsourcing and poor quality. Glad I've moved to Monzo, but I really should close my old account.

That seems ridiculously slow. How is machine learning supposed to scale like this?

Hate to be that guy but there is name conflict with Tobii, the company that makes eye tracking devices. Usually name conflicts aren't a big deal but this name is quite distinctive and doesn't exist in natural language.
