Why keep two competing languages in your toolbox? I personally do C++ and Python and will pretty much never voluntarily choose another language from their respective niches... Except I'm looking forward to replacing C++ with Rust (any

Oh. I even heard about this mechanism before ;) Thanks, this makes more sense.

According to my Firefox, the JPEG file I just tried came from googleusercontent. But you're right, it's not per-user.

Google does the silly separate domain dance GP recommended. I couldn't figure out what is it for, until I read this advice in the previous discussion. Disclaimer: I'm a Google SRE. But never supported anything reachable from the o

Ah, so a 50+ years campaign? Yup, that can work if you can have a government with enough attention span. Edit: don't get me wrong, _not_ doing that for children is evil. But, the results thus far do speak for themselves... And uncle Bo

TBF, I still haven't seen enough to convince me to upgrade my desktop from 4690K (which got an RTX2080 in the meantime). Standing plan is to wait for RTX4090 or AMD's equivalent and change the whole box then.

So, how do you make uncle Bob media literate?

Yeah, runs contrary to my perception too. Even things that one would reasonably expect to be air-gapped are online these days.

I, uh, can't grok competing protocols as a good thing.

I think you missed an important link here: opening the API is not the same as making a good standard. The latter tends to take years. The former... Well, Google internal APIs often have minor changes every couple weeks. And the standard of

When was the last time you tried to copy the text of the menu items of whatever native app you're using? Or the tab title?

This is amazing, underwhelming and not very surprising, all at the same time. Unsurprising, as it was already known that lucid dreamers can move their eyes... And I think everyone has experienced external stimuli, say an alarm clock, being

Wait, so people not only still play, but also actually pay for MUDs? OTOH, I managed to find the price list and seems to be quite heavily pay to win...

"But 85% like it more this way!" :( I recently tried a new niche - I tried to choose binoculars. 90% of results seem to be, admittedly well shot and edited, folks reading out the marketing materials. I think we're reaching pe

I literally never got a result like this. Are you searching for something too niche to actually have quality content on YouTube? Or is your search buble such a sad place? Disclaimer: I work in Google, but nowhere near any of this.

A nice, strong piece. I love the example of people accepting to pay through their teeth to get to the hospital. Makes a nice, clear case for all the research on ethics in ML.

Hmmm, really? I had a DX-4 which was not expensive at all around 1996-ish.

A safe in the cellar, under the 4 weeks worth of food and water reserve, seems about right.

Don't touch if it isn't broken? From what I've seen in other countries, you don't update protocols for this. You introduce better ones and kill the old ones once nobody used them for a while. Which might take longer than

Huh? Well, Reddit is a platform, not a community. A sane usage pattern is to come for a sub, create an account and immediately unsubscribe from all the other subs. I find the communities I participate in not as bad as you describe. But a co

"Wool" is a very broad category that pretty much means "material made out of some kind of animal hair". And since there's quite a few animals with hair, there's quite a few types of wool. I suggest trying high

As an actual full-time senior SRE: telling the grocer's website dev team they don't need Kubernetes is pretty much what the point of SRE is.

There's an important distinction here: if your development team also holds the pager, you're not doing SRE. You're just skimping on sysadmin roles. You're doing SRE once you field a 12 person team of skilled programmers
