You do realise morality is fundamentally logic and predates Christianity by a fair bit? Christianity has an extrapolation over the basic tenets and certainly didn't stick to most of them over the years, or today based on The Lord'

Many layers of physical controls and regular audits mostly.

The 800 years or so before that is far more interesting from that perspective. It was all a bit crap after that! I do wonder if things went differently we'd be 1000 years ahead of where we are now.

Hey Greek mythology was far more interesting! As for separation of religion and public policy, it is difficult when one is designed to parasitically attach itself to the other.

This is a minor worry when the entire software ecosystem is based on “download any old shit off the Internet at run it”.

The difference between HP and HPE is one is a really expensive way to get crap service and parts and one is a cheaper way to get crap service and crap parts. This is admittedly recent. Within last 5-6 years.

I believe that’s sewage from shit in this case.

It depends how you measure productivity and value. And who is measuring it. And who tells the story. If the developer writes 6,000 lines of utter dog shit with AI that causes your customers to leave, well.

We already banned HPE after they let us down on service several times. Literally no parts availability and crappy support for 3 years. Moved to AWS. We were a very large spender on HPE / 3PAR stuff. The whole org has been gutted in the

Yeah good idea. UK here working for a US company (different sector). Already pulled out my US investments and rode Rheinmetall, BAE and TSLQ hard.

No we weren't really to start with. What happened was a lot of European business executives worked out the best retirement plan for them was to either sell off our industry or subcontract everything out. I worked for two companies in s

The depressing bit is it’s a corporate dystopia where you are a constant cash cow driven on hype and hope that never materialises. Like fuck me someone was trying to sell my company an AI todo list the other day. What problem does it even s

What recent batch? It’s always been like this. It’s documented going back a few thousand years. Also let’s not attribute any of this to anything other than the will of man. Very very stupid asshole man mostly.

Vibe coding is my favourite fad so far. Much like the last few fads I’m going to make so much money out of cleaning up afterwards it’s unreal. Really this whole industry is on another fucking planet. I hate it but it’s so easy to make money

I’m quite happy for people to waste time and money on an economic dead end. Just not Europe. We can do better while everyone is ruining their society with it.

A world class LLM is sort of like saying you stuck a dildo on a donkey’s head and you’ve got a unicorn to sell. It’s a donkey mate. The problem is that most people can’t tell the difference between a donkey and a unicorn because everyone wa

So much this. They're still wanking over building a third runway at Heathrow which is about the worst possible solution.

We're definitely not victims. It's impossible to rationalise what we do. Use this to your advantage.

Glorious bit of kit that. Any engineer would tip their hat towards that fine piece of engineering.

I suspect, like the UK, most regional defence agencies have thoroughly reverse engineered this stuff and are shifting to locally manufactured stuff. I have hopes for BAE Tempest.

From a European perspective, the Panavia Tornado. Was heavily involved in that project from an avionics perspective. To this day I learned more on that than I did at any startup, tech company or bullshit merchant. It was engineering at its

I have both a Garmin (Instinct solar) and an Apple Watch (S10). The Apple Watch is actually slightly more useful even if it doesn't last more than a couple of days. Actually if I'm honest the Apple Watch saved my life a couple of

I think it’ll be good for Apple. Everyone will go “yay” and buy another brand of crap smart watch, realise it’s total garbage and buy an Apple watch anyway.

Yeah I did. I used the text editor to assemble the libraries into something that worked.
