People either have privacy in public or they do not, but I don't know anyone who seriously claims that there's an expectation of privacy on public roads. What freedom are you talking about?

I don't follow that... posting a police officer in everyone's house is pretty much a Third and Fourth Amendment violation and not primarily constrained by finances.

Scale is more about efficiency and cost, though. Plenty of people want more policemen patrolling the streets.

How is it different from putting out an all-points bulletin? Basically doesn't it just expand the size of the police force and make their eyeballs on the road more accurate?

Python is great as a dynamic language, but I find very few things about are easy to reason conclusively about because the state of the running program can be so crazy (has pros and cons). But it probably depends at what level you are workin

The article is about how the operator of the system failed to correct the targeting after the first event so the Flock cameras found the same car a second time. If your point is that pulling her over at gunpoint is a flawed procedure that&#

Did you actually read the article? It's like you are demanding a car to not drive when you push the gas pedal.

People to tune in to the conference, probably.

Their website has a banner suggesting news about open sourcing of the compiler at some Aug 18 convention.

The flock cameras were clearly misused. Misuse is 100% user error.

Hey, we can also expect LLMs to clog the wheels of the USPTO with patentslop so at least we've got that going for us.

Copyrights for protecting software seems likely to die on the altar of LLMs. It seems likely patents will become more important.

I tried to figure out devcontainers (I don't use vscode) but it seemed like a lot of complexity and ended up just doing the old-school thing and creating a separate user/group that I ssh into with my main account as a member of th

I used to use dangerously-skip-permissions until auto appeared and I gave it a try and honestly I don't know there's much of a difference? If auto had existed in the past I would never have needed to try dangerously-skip-permissio

I appreciate you and that you still believe the lies of how academics works.

I don't give a shit what you "accounted for", you're hot air with no teeth in the game passing yourself off as some sort of "expert" or knowledgeable about anything. I might as well talk to a LLM.

Why does which college I attended have more bearing than the ones I have and do work at? I don't particularly care for your stupid irrelevant demand and I am refusing to engage it. I, my parents, my in-laws and my siblings are all acad

I don't think you understand how hiring, promotion and departmental finances works at US universities for roughly the last two decades.

Yes indeed. College departments are well-known for cutting the ranks of the professors who have proven track records of boosting enrollment in favor of awarding tenure to the professors who can't get butts in seats.

The problem is the vicious feedback nowadays of online student evaluations of professors. Professors that are rigorous get complaints and low rankings, kids don't sign up for their sections etc. Kids (parents) pay the administration an

To me the ratio just looks like an underdamped vibration of the baby boom. Boomer parents had more kids than the steady state.

I don't know if they are doomed but https://isaiprofitable.com/ seems concerning about Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft.

I only get anything useful when I force extremely strict standards and opinions so that it is impossible to deviate from what I want. That only really works in some languages and some programming styles. Whenever I try to do something less

People say that and I used to agree, but honestly I use neither MS Office nor LibreOffice heavily anymore. Nowadays I can figure out what to do in MS Office very quickly but LibreOffice's menus are a confusing maze (even when switched

I haven't had a chance to try Opus 5 yet but Fable currently refuses to do anything in my field (radiology image analysis). It didn't used to be that way but that has been the reality the last two weeks or so. Fable has been usele

Is anyone at Debian paid to keep up with this spigot of CVEs?
