You don't need to read minds to know that abusing your dominant market position in one market to disadvantage your competitors in a different market (advertising) has a very high likelihood of breaking competition rules. That's a

The press release is.. not great. The summary document linked at the bottom of the page is written in English and makes it clear that the fine was issued due to their double standards: > xii. As a matter of fact, revenues from App Store

Yes, precisely, take a look at the summary document [1] at the bottom of the article. > xii. As a matter of fact, revenues from App Store services increased, in terms of higher commissions collected from developers through the platform;

Absolutely not. They're not writing code or performing most of the work that programmers do, therefore they're not [working as] programmers. Their work ends up producing code, but they're not coders any more than my manager i

Correction: Nobody wants to pay for you to learn, yet they implicitly do it and rely on it. If companies decide that professional learning is unnecessary in the age of AI they'll be committing a horrible blunder. Their "fuck aro

Well that's a gross oversimplification of the process. Hunting for a missing semicolon is a basic mechanical task that doesn't require much thought. Engaging with an intellectual problem, trying to solve it one way, failing, reaso

That's not a good reason. Other forms of criminality and reckless behavior don't get this kind of extreme leniency. People shouldn't have their license taken away over 1 speeding ticket but there need to be escalating punishm

You should still treat it as radioactive waste. Protect it and protect yourself from it - segregated VLAN, no internet access, just like you would do with official firmware.

Thingino is great for many other reasons but security is not one of them - definitely segregate those cameras on a locked down VLAN. The web interface is HTTP-only and it uses the same credentials as root SSH access on the camera, and most

Why not? It's just an annoyance step that is predicated on obfuscating information that has already been made publicly available.

With open source software + reproducible system image builds + TPM + secure boot + remote attestation you could technically achieve some level of certainty that the server is running the software that you expect, but that's not enough.

You can't really verify anything in this way. SSH is just a protocol, you're trusting the SSH server to give you a shell inside the real production environment instead of giving you a shell inside some elaborate simulation of a pr

On paper ZAP has all of the features I care about, but I gave it my best try and found it really unintuitive to use.

Wireshark is extremely powerful and useful but it lives in a completely different category of tools. It's not a proxy so it can't modify traffic or inspect HTTPS [1], it's used to passively capture and analyze general network

What I was getting at is that running LLMs in a loop doesn't really address those concerns at all. You simply get more information , it doesn't do anything for the correctness of that information. Any patterns it identifies could

Are you under the impression that corporations and governments of capitalist countries are somehow independent? The ultimate goal of both of them is to have the greatest amount of power over the greatest number of people. They're an ex

Labour is a left-wing institution as much as Democratic People's republic of (North) Korea is democratic. People lie and they use doublespeak.

Except AI companies are not a monopoly, never mind a natural monopoly. When ChatGPT first released it was popular to predict the death of Google because they were "so far behind".

It's not a crime, but it's a foolish thing to do if you care about your data. Find vendors that aren't user hostile and still deliver security updates. For me that's various flavors of Linux (Debian, Fedora, arch, depend
