I just had to fix the phone from a family member that used to shut it down by pressing and holding one of the side buttons, and now got instead an "ask gemini" pop-up. It must be some "upgrade" I guess?

You can make debt, as many governments have been doing until now... And debt (spending) ironically will increase the GDP. If a company keeps on producing goods and doesn't sell them? That increases also the GDP. ( as long as they don&#

Which is why is not a good indicator... Government overspending, for example, increases the GDP.

Well maybe we are seeing this the wrong way. Maybe that's exactly the mindshare they want. People who get angry when they see bad code, so much to call the developers lackeys and monkeys. And an organization whose code base doesn'

No but whatsapp was built by 2 guys that had previously worked at Yahoo, and they picked a very strong tech for the backend: erlang. So while they probably didn't bother scaling the service to millions in the first version, they 1) kne

OMG a new chapter of eugenics. "Your brain still runs on Win10, unfortunately you need a new body to upgrade to Win11". :) Jokes aside. This is quite some fascinating news. This ends once and for all the theory of "Tabula Ras

I want to see how obvious this becomes when you start to add agents left and right that make decisions automagically...

You have to be honest, though, and admit that ChatGPT/LLMs are usable/used by literally everyone. Crypto is still perceived as a way to fund criminality. Not comparable to be honest. It "could be anything", but the curre

In some cases it has to do with nostalgy, for whatever reason. In most cases it has to do more with the fact that the South is primarily used as a way to steer/control the elections. Garibaldi used local (criminal) lords, the "pic

That's not true. Mass/quantity can still resist/delay/push back until you're exhausted and done. We're not anymore in the swords vs guns era. We're talking about hypersonic missiles vs super intelligent hy

From the mobile version I see a 10% other and 16.1% C++. I think GH might have some issues because those two folders contain a lot of code (there is also C in between, but still), I don't know if I want to believe it's less than 2

I think that thanks to the internet we have more access to a lot of literature like never before, so in theory we can recognize certain "patterns" more easily now than some years ago. People from the East Europe will tell you that

For me it's just incomplete. We used to have Successfactors and although the UI was less fancy, I have the feeling it was more complete and thorough. After so many years with Workday I still cannot sync my calendar to outlook365, so I

This is probably done to invalidate your session token, which is required in some industries (see banks, logging you out after 5 minutes of inactivity).

Mastodon is a bubble worse than when you enable all the activity/history/etc on Google and get always "things related to what you search". The community is so "conforming" on certain topics that you will rarely

I like your advice. It's like setting some metrics on your own progress and happiness level. On the other hand, sometimes without pushing, you won't be able to fully enjoy something "later". Stupid example: learning pian

Elon Musk said just the truth about EU until now. Why did he do that, I don't care, but that's a fact. Plus, when you see politicians react the way they did, it's like a code smell.

It seems it was a matter of time. Germany first voted against chat control 2.0, then they clarified why they were against it, became "undecided". And now "Denmark" came out with a (lighter) version "some others&quot

I agree. I believe we're all surprised by the 4 months deadline. You know, it's just the main entry point to all of your software :)
