There's another way. Only a small portion of friends need to change to pull the rest of the group. Pull them to a game that runs on Linux. Don't do it like "let's play this game because it runs on Linux" do it like

Fwiw I've been playing Hogwarts Legacy lately, though single player. Only problem I ever face is sometimes in a cave if I'm facing a certain direction I'll get blinding light as if I have ray tracing enabled and it's bad

This is a solvable problem and there's even pacman hooks around to do it for you But also don't blame Linux. Even your comment says the problem is Microsoft. We need to be collectively mad at the right entity if we're going t

It's unfortunate but at the same time if enough people switch to Linux then they'll be forced to change their ways. So if you can go without those games or don't play MMOs that is rootkits then switch to force their hand. Bes

That's true for any system where you have contacts linked. Same thing happens when you have names and avatars. If you don't want to link your contacts... don't link your contacts... But this doesn't have the result that

Covering it up for sure. We all make mistakes. We all make idiots out of ourselves. But you have to take ownership and own up to move on. Covering it up changes it from being dumb to being deceptive

Considering how many times I've heard "don't let perfection be the enemy of good enough" when the code I have is not only incomplete but doesn't even do most of the things asked (yet), I'd wager quite a lot

This is why I never understand the expansion of surveillance tech and how people believe it will make us safer. So many people have these types of stories and how does expanded surveillance solve those problems? The police already know a cr

The real concern is that we've been doing this race to the bottom for so long that it's becoming almost trivial to explain why they are wrong. This over simplification has existed before AI coding and it's the dream AI coding

There's a quote I love from Feynman > The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool. I have no doubt he'd be repeating it loudly now, given we live in a time where we devel

It feels like coding agents have just abstracted the old programming problem of "computers do what you tell them, not what you mean to tell them"

I think a stock picking analogy is good, but you captured wrong. Most of your portfolio should be status quo but most of your growth will come from the risky investments you took a chance on. In a noisy environment you can't rely on st

I think that's the advice I take from this article and other similar ones. In most jobs there's going to be some learning that needs to happen on the job. You want the people who will go out and make this happen. It's hard to

Yet people often forget this. We don't have mathematical models of truth, beauty, or many abstract things. Thus we proxy it with "I know it when I see it." It's a good proxy for lack of anything better but it also create

It's amazing how quickly the party of small government, states rights, and the 2nd amendment quickly turned against all their principles. It really shows how many people care more about party than principle.

When did legality make something right? The whole social battle is a constant attempt to align our laws and values as a society. It's why we create new laws. It's why we overturn old laws. You can't just abdicate your morals

Their service is commendable and I'll even go so far to say that they were betrayed. But I still don't agree. We all have a duty. Being betrayed gives you every right to be angry, but it is what you do with that anger that matters

I'll add that this is the whole purpose of a society. The social contract is that of a coalition. Our combined utility is greater than the sum of our individual utility. To not have an obligation to society is to be a drain on it. Even
