Kite Runner and the Handmaids Tale talk about child sexual abuse. I'm not condoning the ban, just pointing out that these two are not the same thing. Worth adding: Making the Bible available to common folk was also hotly contested at t

Without upgrsding the wiring to a thicker gauge? That's not code compliant and is likely to cause a fire.

This is facetious. Some protection is better than no protection. If "every little bit helps" is true for the environment, it's also true for cryptography, and vice versa.

So great that you picked one of those rare outliers. There's nothing quite like the McLaren F1, not then, not now.

Sorry to burst bubbles, but I've been in a few: The new cars really do drive better. Smoother shifts, better engines, effective climate control, better seats, just more comfy, more driveable, more responsive, even feel better. This isn

This moral zealotry in the absence of any evidence just goes to show how Democrats believe in dogma, not facts. Let me provide you with a source [1]. You'll be pleased to know that conservatives do not have a monopoly on child molestat

You're just making a case for why developers cannot be trusted with sensitive information, and why cyber depts lock the machine down so extensively.

My 4930K system is over a decade old and it still serves as a NAS. I have a Core 2 Duo kicking around that I'm sure will boot. There's a perfectly usable T520 sitting on my desk running Windows 11. But I must admit that Macbooks o

The zero trust architechture implies (read: requires) that authentication occurs at every layer. Token reuse constitutes a replay attack that mandatory authentication is supposed to thwart. Bypass it and the system's security profile r

You're right. Sometimes I get tired of typing my sudo passwords and wish there was a faster way. Biometrics are not bad.

After the firsr few years, most soldiers were either mad enough or terrified enough of IEDs that they would have willingly accepted alternative options.

Nah, that's only true because the US fought in accordance with the Geneva Convention. It could have easily turned the entire country to glass if it wanted to.

Come now. You mean to tell me the same doctor doesn't use a computer at home, write emails, make an occasional document or spreadsheet for tax purposes, doesn't carry a smartphone in his pocket, text other people? A doctor is a hu

Your rationale doesn't explain Japan, which, due to scarcity of land, has some of the most vertically dense cities in the world and yet its major cities are some of the brightest.

That's a great way of phrasing it, thank you. People have confused talking about the thing with doing something about the thing. It's an endemic in the liberal mindset. It's nice to have good ideas, but it needs to be followe

I don't believe anything I see online anymore. Payola is everywhere and people are happy to sell their professional souls for little more than likes and free LLM credits. Deeper still is this: The group that openly relies on LLMs to co

What's happening is that we are being bombarded by marketing on all fronts. These gushing statements are no different from the testimonials and advertorials from the days of yore.

What a sensationalized article. NY Times should be embarrassed for publishing this drivel. One superstar researcher does not equate an industry. Perhaps NY Times should consider paying its journalists the same wage as Pulitzer prize winners

It was a Visconti Opera Master. Comes with a power reservoir filler that detached from the nib assembly within five days of purchase. Turned out the threads were completely mismatched, that pen should have never been sold. Now, granted Visc

I've been buying from Goulet for years, but lately their service has taken a major nosedive. I recommend people stay away from them now. The last pen I received from them was broken. They would not take it back, asked me to deal with t

I'm not sure where this hair is being split. How do you distinguish "Remote Desktop" from "Desktop Sharing"? Given that both VNC and RDP are defined as "Remote Desktop Sharing" software, how are they not a

It just sounds like LLMs don't know how to lie on purpose yet. For a question such as this: If I have four 4 apples and two cats, and I give away 1 apple, how many apples do I have? An honest human would say: You have 3 apples, but
