Two things can be true. They treat their employees poorly and they have invented many things which have vastly benefited millions or even billions of people.

Did I read recently that Anthropocene essentially breaks even? This is a massive investment, I hope they aren’t digging a hole.

I agree that Debian beats Homebrew. But wouldn’t a persistent Debian container on Mac be better? WSL is nothing more than a container on the system, no? The Mac hardware is vastly superior to most Windows laptops, especially enterprise Wind

Even my 2017 MBP on macOS 13 still gets security updates. Heck iPhone 6 got a security update recently. Your points are valid but it’s not 2 years, it’s more than that for big vulnerabilities.

Climate science does itself a disservice by being so imprecise and not controlling for unrelated variables. And yet your comment is flagged, and probably will be removed.

I’m not in control, I’m just a user, but thanks. I have talked to the owners on occasion and plan to keep bringing it up so they can investigate.

Ouch. We are headed that direction. The problem is, if a vulnerability is found in a plugin, then you have to get everyone to manually upgrade. Doing it this way means everyone’s software is always out of date, which has its own drawbacks t

Re: Microsoft Defender, I’m actually talking about defender on macOS. It is a multi platform product. I hear infosec is pretty happy with it. Me? It uses 100% CPU even when I’m doing nothing. I’m not happy.

This is a very subjective take. If you like Windows, you’ll find it better with WSL2. In fact, I see many developers at my org who claim they’ll switch to Windows (from Mac) when we make it available internally. However, if you love Mac, yo

The Mac ecosystem isn’t as closed as you’re alluding to. You can easily download unsigned binaries and run them. Furthermore, if you’re looking for a battery hog, look no further than Microsoft Defender, Jamf Protect, and Elasticbeat. All 3

Your comment made me realize that it was an extension I’m using on my iPhone on iOS 26 that is causing the issue. The extension is StopTheMadness. I had an option called “Protect page zoom controls” which allows you to zoom on sites that di

I think it shows that there is a persistent dislike of yaml. I would like to read about the history of why yaml became so popular, despite all its flaws.

Why did you have to switch to a Facebook account? I was gifted a Meta Quest 3S, and I was forced to make a Meta account, but I didn’t have to make a Facebook account.

At this time should we just consider all of npm unsafe for installing new packages? Installing a single package could install hundreds of transient dependencies.

I’m not sure why. Because they’re usually at salaries that you wouldn’t accept. Like paying 30% below market rate.

Yeah I hate Microsoft as much as the next guy but every product has security vulnerabilities. If the product is popular enough, then hackers spend time discovering those vulnerabilities.

I’m a huge Sig fan, I think they build a quality firearm. But I am not so blind to see they’ve made an insane mistake here. Recalling all P320s would’ve been better than this disaster.
