You can't link your government ID to your social media account. The legislation doesn't allow social media companies to gather this data. It's specifically not allowed. In other words: this legislation is useless, and entirel

My favorite reaction to today’s news is this one-liner from a guy on Twitter/X: “The average IQ of both companies has increased.” My friend, that was NZ prime minister Robert Muldoon who was quoted as saying “every time a New Zealand

There is also the “Fuck off support ticket”. I got this from FreshService - they changed the way they did loan requests in such a way that you could loan out one item twice with the status of delivered on both requests. So then you have two

Do you have a list of such managers?

That's kind of the point... and hardly surprising, you don't think at all.

Be careful, the grass is greener in other countries, but not perfect. I feel sorry if you live in the U.S.

Don’t they get emailed patch from git? Sorry if I’m super ignorant here, it’s interesting to me if they do!

Amazingly, explorer.exe still freezes up to this very day. Bravo, Microsoft. Never change.

Which is why we need to get a list of names of all the DOGE guys. There wasn't many of them.

Well, I was referring to its social value. A positive value solely for criminals is hardly an excellent economic indicator and I’m a bit surprised you would argue otherwise.

I’m not following your objection either.

Can you give an example of when it is not appropriate?

That’s the opinion of one person. There are many mathematicians who find beauty in the maths they are studying.

Not really. If GrapheneOS feels they will be prosecuted in a particular country, then they don’t need to allow participation in that country. It’s their choose and right to do so. They have no obligation to do otherwise. - ~~~~

Because they would be violating the laws of another country. The fastest way to prevent this is to prevent access from France. The same way it is being done with the UK.

I feel for Matthew. Apparently there is an entire chapter about me on an anti-Wikipedia website that advances some quite literally absurd claims. I’ve been aware of it for some time, being simultaneously amused and disturbed by the unhinged

The thing that our management likes about co-pilot is that the data stays with us. We can't say that about ChatGPT.

When Microsoft updated office.com to immediately bring up a copilot prompt, and made it harder for me to find the menu items, I was pretty annoyed. Foisting AI on people in the way they have means we lose a bit more control, for a feature w

You can thank the Australian government for this change in direction.

If there is, does anyone have any info on this?
