Disabling telemetry might be interpreted as a self-indicated signal of "I have something to hide", so they jack up the snooping.

Same slope, also slippery: this thing is not limited to opinions of moral minorities, because payment processors are a weak point for government pressure. We already started: pressuring CBS to fire Colbert for political speech, pressuring C

Only NWS has a vast network of sensors: river gauges (with USGS), doppler radars, satellites, airport AOS automated observation systems, etc etc. to support the mission. Most of the privates are just repackaging their feeds and data. So if

It's nice to present a LastPass method, but really, my suggestion is stay far away from LastPass either as a user or an integrator. They've been breached at least seven times since 2011. The net will be better off with fewer integ

I'll put a point on the "it depends" bit. If you have a standard-ish environment, you'll have an array of Unix tools to compose together, which is what a shell is best at. Even a minimal image like busybox will have enou

A good tall tale has an element of plausibility. A 6km swim is a common workout for a college swimmer these days. If the river conditions were favorable, the story on its own was not suspect.

Nobody mentioned the case where you get locked out of your cloud provider with no humans to speak to, or your account gets deleted by the algorithm. Both happen routinely and we only hear about it when the victim takes to the socials.

That's a great idea. The Action Labs guy just demonstrated how some of those fluids can vary their viscosity in response to a magnetic field, used in some vehicle active suspensions. Similar application!

And tragically, nuclear propulsion at NASA has been aggressively singled out for the axe so humanity will be counting on more advanced countries to finish that research. Was that the fossil fuel lobby's doing?

They know its radius is ~1000km but interestingly, there is no way to determine its mass without a flyby or other gravitational interaction. I guess you could swag it by using the lunar density, which gives ~~~ 10^22 kg. https://

Yes, right, it should be an open protocol so any CDN or content provider can use it the same way. Hopefully it becomes a part of popular web servers so little guys can play along without a CDN. It needn't be crypto, but would be conve

Yeah the whole point of ML is it learns without needing an integration. "Open app X" is something a 5 year old can do (and Gemini can actually do this). But "open X and play" it gets tripped up on the media play state.

That's an extreme take now and maybe uncharitable. The safe parts of rust are simply no comparison to the whole c/c++ world: the tooling is eliminating vast swaths of "easy" errors. Unsafe parts might be comparable if th
