Most broadcasters would consider their ultimate back up as the tape library/vault of their broadcast video tapes. Older stations will have a large collection of analog tapes. Most will only be digitized if someone requests it as captur

Your description leaves the reader wanting. You make it sound like having a backup on an HDD in one location and then having another copy on the exact same make/model HDD in another location is a-okay. What if the vendor had a defect t

This is the biggest issue I have with current state of affairs. It's not there yet. Because of that, extra work is needed to get them to work that otherwise would not need to be spent. Everyone is shouting from the roof tops about how

A PR with a minimal title and empty description should be refused at submission. If the human is so disinterested that they're using LLM generated code and then can't explain the purpose, that human should be prevent from making t

Are these generated descriptions of LLM submitted changes or of human changes? If a human, shouldn't they be putting the motivation into the PR?

Outside insane GPU appliances, I really see cloud based things as a lock-in to subscription based offerings. The fallacy of always using the latest code isn't worth never ending subscription fees. I'll install it locally. I'l

Really think about it for a second; $8.5 billion in profit. That's an insane amount of money. How many companies with that kind of profit are actively dodging taxes from aggressive accounting, getting deals with local governments, or a

The number of times we've gone from cloud/server access via terminal to local compute back and forth is something that always makes me laugh a bit.

The vast majority of FB users see the unfiltered site, yet they are not leaving contrary to your theory. FB does not seem to be anywhere near the ground or bankruptcy court. These are very strange things you're commenting about one of

You have to show the bean counters the quotes/bids you received and justify why one was used over the other when the cheapest option wasn't used. You can't put "price on the website" into the bean counter's fil

Is HTML that way because of it being HTML, or have browsers just decided to brute force their way into handling the slop so that people won't blame the browser for not doing it correctly?

Meta has already been okay with drug use by allowing people to place ads and other posts clearly promoting drug use/sales. IIRC, 404 Media did an article on this What's the latest social media platform position on being labeled a

What's the percentage of people that will read a post embedded in the site vs clicking a link to another site? Sure, I think it strange that these posters are posting directly into a site rather than writing locally and then copy/

This is what happens when you place a "contact us for a quote" form on your website. You will get a high percentage of requests that lead no where. Do you have any experience with a company that receives RFQs to land business? You

I think if a human received artwork and was then told to scale it down to 2mm on a mug so that it was just a dot, that the human would ask some questions. This context that keeps being talked about is kind of important yet so sorely not wor

Maybe it confused metric and imperial units?? The order form had text entry with a value of 2 with no units. The user assumed 2" but the print house assumed 2mm. Always always always show your units. I can still hear the voice of my hi

Navigation was difficult as the screen eats the cursor which resulted in blind clicks, and the arrow keys did not move around as expected. Smashing esc/enter blindly eventually led me to checking out. The animation rendered the case go

I said the governor of the state, not a state. Why you jumped to some inane example that has nothing to do with the conversation is beyond me. By definition, the governor of NY is responsible for more people than the mayor of NYC, yet m

If everyone has the same conclusion, how is it an argument? Nobody thinks the US won in Iran except the morons that started it. Maybe bigOil feels like its a win as their profits are soaring???
