I went to reply that Bosch is similar in terms of having some really interesting highly technical research going on under the radar, then realized that Bosch is now collaborating with Cariad on some of those topics. Fun!

Sometimes. It's definitely situational. Some tasks that involve a lot of visual cross-referencing can really use the screen space, but my deep work mode is curling up somewhere with nothing but a 13" laptop. Never at my desks, tho

It's nearly the exact opposite of resource-constrained computing, but HPC / exabyte-scale storage type stuff has some of the same vibe of needing to know your hardware and wanting to squeeze the most out of it that you can. Consis

Do you happen to know if they allow you to also totally disable SMS 2FA? I know that Vanguard, for instance, supports non-SMS 2FA but doesn't let you disable SMS as a fallback (and I'd rather not just totally remove all phone numb

No, you're right, it's a half-baked idea. There's got to be some way of slicing things such that freedom from discrimination is prioritized over the ability to use that freedom to implement discrimination, but I'm not se

I've always thought the whole 'protected categories' thing was made a little odd by the inclusion of religion, given the obvious nexus between religious beliefs and political positions, e.g. Burwell v. Hobby Lobby. Political

Fun fact about modern radio direction-finding techniques: you don't need directional antennas, just an array of antennas you can observe phase differences across. It works shockingly well. https://www.sciencedirect.com/

Oof, that's not good. As a Fi user, I'm pretty angry at the moment even though I got the other version of the notice. That's because one of the main reasons I was using Fi in the first place was the perceived protection again

Hrm, interesting to see how the TDP of those 8358s drives overall power consumption. I'm looking at the idrac consoles of a couple R720XDs with 12 3.5" hdds, >128gb ram, two E5-2665s per, and they're all currently sipping
