Why can’t we do both? Edit: It would take _years_ to get the police to put their house in order. So why not go after swatters as well in the meantime? Most swatters are repeat offenders. And once the police have cleaned up their act… do you

Well said. I hope I never have to rely on a root cause analysis done by these people.

They’re not irrelevant to the situation. In fact, they’re the people who have malicious intent. Can’t catch them all? Catch the ones you can, make an example out of them. That should in no way be used as an excuse not to get the police to b

So we agree that neither the police nor the swatters should be let off the hook?

He’s absolutely being harassed by the swatters. I agree that he’s being terrorised by the police. The police should face consequences for allowing themselves to be used like this. I don’t understand why you want to let the swatters off the

You can tell when a decentralised technology becomes successful, because then someone will build something centralised on top of it.

Paid followers are not a new phenomenon. I’ve got to wonder — are they following Musk in the belief that this would immunise them from being banned? Or are they being run by Twitter, one of the purposes being to stroke the big man’s ego? Th

A shame the circle line is no longer topologically a circle.

They should split the northern line in two, really. Edgware - Bank - Morden and High Barnet - Charing Cross - Battersea.

How does this compare to the political preferences of humans? The UK Conservative Party and the US Republican Party are quite right wing by international standards, wouldn’t it be fair to expect that to show up here if the LLMs were neutral

SEO is something that happened to Google, any search engine will have to deal with it. What changes to the business model are you envisaging?

Currently: Something stir fry like. Mushrooms, onions, peppers; maybe kidney beans; tomatoes; feta or halloumi cheese; egg noodles or bean sprouts. Add sweet+sour or black bean sauce. I used to also do a tomato based stew: tinned tomatoes;

Cook in bulk, stick meals in the freezer. This means most days, cooking dinner means sticking rice in the steamer, something from the freezer in the microwave, maybe add some sauce.

Does stuff written in Go or Rust really get backlash from end users? From people who would like to hack on it or build it from source and would prefer a more traditional language/toolchain, sure, but end users who are using prebuilt bi

I wouldn’t use the word “hate”. But. On resource use: If it’s just one app then ok. But if it’s several (VS Code, Slack, Figma, …) then it adds up. Plus there are other things I want to use my laptop’s resources for (hello docker). It’s sim

Plenty of Russians would say that Stalin was a good leader. Certainly Putin would take being compared to Stalin as a compliment. Mentioning Hitler is less ambiguous.

It’s not just giving up the revenue, it’s also moving the engineering. How many engineers, product designers etc does Apple employ in the UK? I have no idea.

Any software system that might produce legal evidence should also be an exception… it feels a bit too much of a common case to call it an exception though. (This is in reference to the Horizon scandal, yes.)

Perhaps the autogenerated passwords do not comply with the other password requirements, and instead of reacting by rethinking their requirements, they have added that note as clarification?

> Developers can choose to adopt these new business terms, or stay on Apple’s existing terms. The thread title (currently “Apple will increase by ten the fees that you pay to distribute your free app”) appears to be untrue.

We have self driving cars in an extremely limited number of cities (just one or two) and you can’t buy them, you can only use them like an Uber. He’s overselling how mature the technology is.
