How do they do that exactly? It’s not like they advertise or fearmonger. It’s consumers devolving down to their survival instincts.

For electronics, I think showing is better than telling. Hence, it’s more productive for me to consume and replicate YouTubers like Carl Bugeja [ https://youtube.com/@CarlBugeja ], and seeing what they can practically produce

Interest rates were incredibly low. It was free money to take on more people with not much downside

There’s been a bigger push towards the whole Indy/kickstarter thing, several developers in the past year slipped out from under their publishers to take control and let fans directly fund their games. Otherwise that was a selling point

Why? Games are easier to develop today than they’ve ever been. The only class of game that can push the $69.99 envelope are those making AAA games. Games and movies are the two cheapest forms of entertainment. They’re not going to mess with

If you think about it, middle managers are nothing more than recruiters. If the metric really is the number of heads their team grows, then the only thing they'd do is increasing their team size. In some areas, recruiters make 40-80k a

Why would you want Microsoft to trust Microsoft? Good on them for not trusting themselves, makes a secure baseline

The most bang for your buck is to watch the latest WWDC videos. Use SwiftUI to hit the road and fill the gaps later. Declarative UI is too powerful and removes a lot of the excuses people had before in UI development. There’s different tech

It’s probably more productive to mention what about SwiftUI is a “steaming pile of dung”. For most mobile UI, you can spit out a working design faster than w/ AppKit. It doesn’t even have to be one or the other, you can meld both. What

Yea the fix it later approach is an excuse that software engineers get to enjoy. Civil engineers are liable for their mistakes, and face fines/sanctions for their work. Meanwhile, software engineers can get away with half ass logic or

Remember something about Microsoft. They have countless competing projects internally to keep the bloodlust going. What’s profitable? MS will let the most successful team live and kill the other two I’m not surprised they had to get rid leg

Facebook has a pretty bad habit of canning their internal projects. There's so many products that were close to making it out but were trashed. I used to think Microsoft was bad w/ having 3 different teams competing over the same

DARPA had a program some years back to train AI on actual hackers to model their behaviors. Anyways, I still doubt AI's ability to cause significant harm beyond automating spear-phishing, social engineering, mass-scanning codebases&#x2

The forms are just materials they lean on during your security interviews. They kind of want you to lie about something to give them fodder to yell/break you. You're not going to prison for lying on your SF86. The polygraph hasn&#

I reported that around 7 years ago. They called it a feature - 'failover' so you can get inside a server in a fault scenario. To this day, you can still shodan scan for open supermicro ipmi web interfaces on the internet. Btw, if

In previous times, the US would ignore these balloons and quietly take them down. Instead they made a big deal out of it and milked it. Brilliant and opposite of what china expected

Directed energy would be better. But then missles are something the general public can understand. It also falls in line with the US making a big drama about this

Credit monitoring might as well be free & unlimited. Nobody really cares about their data being leaked. Too abstract of an idea for folks. But people care if you go through their trash for less data

If this gets big enough, Apple will add the ability to turn old iPhones/iPads into HKSV cameras. It’s one of those things that can be implemented as a feature like Luna display & sidecar mirroring. As it is now, the subscription co

SteamDeck is hit or miss and is really more for tinkerers. Similar to you, I have limited time and have probably gamed on PS5/Nintendo Switch probably 90% of the time. There’s something about playing on a steam deck being unwieldy and

I don't think having your reputation, world standing or military prestige be ruined is a deterrent. Countries that are oil exporters are raking in the money and are able to pursuit their geopolitical goals. Now is probably one of the b
