At minimum, we should have open source hardware/software for network infrastructure. None of this closed source Cisco gear where they keep leaving embedded root passwords. I would love to see a proven sel4 microkernel used for more net

Is shell performance a limitation for some workflows? I naively think of it as some glue which shunts the work elsewhere. Maybe in the efficiency of pipe? I suppose those lunatics who write full programs in bash? I will always take faster c

If nothing else, it seems pretty silly to have the stolen source accessible from the new work computer. That's just asking for the ruse to be detected too easily (automated backups, virus scanning, etc which could fingerprint the data)

If you are really dedicated to the task of clandestine photos, someone could purchase a dedicated point and shoot. Or a secondary phone for which permanently disabling the speakers is not a concern. Or just shoot video.

Selective breeding always struck me as interesting for the sheer amount of time required for experimentation. Pick your pairs, and then wait 2-5 years before you can repeat the cycle again. Amazing that a single lifetime was able to yield m

Not sure I take the RRC's word for things. Of the new winterization standards, gas suppliers did not have requirements to do anything. From [0] >Analyses after Uri revealed that a lack of winterization in the electric and gas sector

The Firestick/Roku/Chomecast all sell for roughly the same price point. I cannot believe they are all losing money on the physical device. This just strikes me as continuing to enshitify the platform because they can.

Tying into the national grid makes sense, but that does not strike me as an easy project. Would likely take years and many tens/hundreds of millions of dollars to get meaningful interconnects established. Plus whatever Texas->Federa

Are there instructions for this distributed inference somewhere? Can I do this out of the box with llamacpp or similar?

There are all sorts of crap apps with dark patterns. Apple can say, "We no longer condone this behavior," but that does not give them the right to steal the current money. Return it to the scammed or give it to the developer.

I am not sure that applies if Apple is deliberately withholding the money. Presumably they are making some claims as to breaking of laws or violating a policy. Enscheatment is more about forgotten money. The developer is very aware of their

Amusingly/sadly(?), I believe even if the money is eventually returned or enscheated, Apple can collect interest/invest the money the entire time.

It is truly unbelievable how bad it has become. Even informational articles might only have a paragraph of text between ads. Plus, the frequent animations/pop-unders/whatever. Everyone can decry the loss of the "small web&quo

People have families, mortgages, debt, etc. Sure, these people are probably well compensated, but it is ludicrous to state that everyone has the stability that they can leave their job at a moment's notice because the boss is gone.

Even if they just had a 12 second meeting, "You know what, the current CEO is trash. He did not send me a birthday card. Shows lack of character, unbefitting the company. He is gone" - does the board not have the broad latitude to

People make crap decisions all the time. So long as the board can claim it was their belief it was the best decision for the company/mission, is there a precedent for taking the team to task? That being said, everything is securities f

What is slow in this case? 1% of the NVidia driver performance or 70%? I could stomach some hit to performance to drop the binary blob.

For what it is worth, the blog post claims that 1.3 compatibility is not too far away, "We're not very far off from being able to advertise Vulkan 1.3 but it's all compiler work between here and there."

What was the exact claim that was disingenuous? Did they show that offensive posts can be shown next to a brand? Or was it claims to the frequency with which it occurs?
