Apparently I am not allowed to read this article without consenting to being tracked. Not worth it.

D is the language I really like, and always intend to use for my next project, and have been saying this for the last 5 years. Every time there is something that makes me decide to use C or C++ just one more time. I don't even think it

It doesn't seem possible to read this without giving them permission to track and monitor me so no thank you

What C and C++ standard versions does this support?

Yes, prices in the USA seem totally out of control. I pay a significant amount in the UK in tax towards the NHS ( I think about £7500 a year of my tax goes towards it) but that's nothing like what I'd pay in the USA. It's not

I don't know anyone who would fly on ryanair. If they were the only 'airline' flying somewhere I would consider that it's not possible to get to that place. As far as I'm concerned they only exist to spam up the fl

No, I think it's the other way around. People driving have accidents all the time right now that could have been avoided if proper automation was in charge. At some point if you have an accident and kill someone, and it can be shown in

Yeah, this. I've argued with lots of people about this, how self driving cars are never going to happen because solving all the problems is too hard. And yet over the last years we've had improved cruise control, steering assist,

I guess this is my problem, I understand the principle of Mediterranean diet, I just don't know _specifically_ what food to make.,

by jbb67 9y ago
This talks about a Mediterranean Diet quite a bit, but what, exactly is such a diet?

It's still very interesting even if I can't just use the code. Not everyone wants to share their code and that's ok, but they are still sharing knowledge which is great.

Nice. Be interesting to see if this policy lasts through changes of management and if it survives any reduction in profits or growth of the company.

Well we didn't know it was there at all not long ago. How sure can we be now that there is no hidden remote way to turn it on?

I read and understood the article fully thank you. Wifi does not work like that and this cannot possibly work.
77.
by jbb67 9y ago
How can this _possibly_ work? You can't make a connection to Wifi or implement any of the protocols that run over by passively reflecting some signals. All of them require some processing and two way communication. The article just ma

I am slowly making my home "smarter" but only installing things that don't use the internet or require or use an external service or account. Secondly for everything i install I write a document on how it works, how to overri

I had a great deal of sympathy for him preventing being tracked until I read that he did it so he could play golf instead of working.

by jbb67 9y ago
This is probably true. I don't have so much time or interest any more, but I am in a position to just buy a game without thinking of the cost now if it interests me at all whereas I was not 20 years ago.

by jbb67 9y ago
Yeah, it's the kind of thing I might have been interested in 20 years ago. Now I looked at it as a result of this thread and thought "that's cool!". But do I want to play it in competition with so many other things I cou

The owner of the vehicle of course like anything else. They may then in turn be able to sue the manufacturer for selling them something unfit for purpose.

My understanding in the UK is that if someone sends you unsolicited goods and then tries to bill you, it's yours to keep. But this doesn't apply to things sent to you by mistake, which certainly seems to be the case here. You ar

When I've seen things like this before, it's often been the switchover hardware that fails, not the generator as such. it's much harder to test that as you don't want to tell your customers "sorry your sever went do

No. If I search for "takeaway pizza" then it's probably because I'm going to be somewhere else later. Why would I ever want to search for takeaway pizza when I'm at home. I already know where to get pizza there. S

Wow that makes an huge difference to usability. My phone feels like it's several times as fast now. Who knew that it felt slow and laggy on purpose! It's really good!

Mostly a bubble. Partly more people realizing that it's interesting and wanting to try it out. Partly people wanting an alternative to their national currency when it's weak or difficult to exchange. I'm hoping the value beco
