They’re using their legacy OS and Office business to subsidize services (LinkedIn, GitHub, npm, vscode, teams, azure, etc). Consider what our industry will look like once the surveillance as a service/enshittifcation that’s been implem

Most of the Bay Area HOV lanes are not limited access. They let you enter/exit wherever, creating congestion. They also slow down traffic at the points where people have to cross lots of lanes to enter/exit. When before/aft

The HOV lanes cause absurd amounts of congestion, both from encouraging all the HOV drivers to aggressively switch lanes, and because they greatly increase the speed differential between lanes. They’re a money / surveillance grab.

Trump has openly admitted to child prostitution in official statements, so the first part of that isn’t surprising at all. Look at the early quotes where Trump complains about Epstein being a creep. The main problem Trump had was that Epst

It's also application specific. If you have workload that's write heavy, has temporal skew and is highly concurrent, but rarely creates new records, you're probably better off with a random PK, even in PG.

Back when Amazon was going to buy Roomba so they could use the cameras to sell us crap and/or sell the feed to law enforcement, I unplugged ours. They were unimaginably unreliable compared to our older Roombas, and I was kind of shocke

Summarizing this thread: - I paid for a device with a properly licensed hdmi port. It runs linux. So patent exhaustion applies, at least in the US. I can say ignore the patents to make my property work. - I have no relationship to the HD

That’s not a ban of nvidia chips though. It’s for a few of the biggest companies, and is specifically telling them not to buy a made-for-china SKU: > The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) told companies, including ByteDance and A

If there’s a paper trail showing they authorized it, and the total amount of fraud is enough for felony charges (a few thousand bucks, I think), then yeah, throw their asses in prison, and make them refund the money they had the business st

Is it a certain number of days to fix all the mispriced items? If not, there’s an obvious loophole here. Misprice intentionally, then stop purchasing the item from your distributor if you get called on it, rotating in some similar thing.

Yeah; it’s completely a matter of frequencies and probabilities. Also, technology keeps improving. If I were working for the train line, and bridges kept “blowing up” like this, I’d probably install a bunch of cameras and try to arrange th

They should already be able to detect line breaks using old technology. They send current pulses down the line to detect stuck switches, since stuck switches can cause collisions. Also, the pulses are conducted through the wheels and axle

Yeah; California’s network neutrality laws include a provision banning discrimination based on device type. I’ve never heard of it being enforced, and blatant violations of it are the norm.

Around here, it’s Starlink >> Fiber >> Cable because our lines are above ground and outages are frequent. Fiber is less expensive than and more than 10x faster than starlink, in fairness. Our 5g towers seem to run off the fiber

Well, I haven’t checked it for a while. Still, try measuring FS latencies during checkpoints, or just write a tight loop program that reads cached data and prints max latencies once an hour. Use the box for other stuff while it runs.

If it’s at 5-15ms of downtime already, you’re in the space where the “zero” downtime FS might actually cause more downtime. In addition to pauses while the snapshot is taken, you’d need to carefully measure things like performance degradat
