I recently bought a TCL TV specifically because I trust Roku to maintain their software more than someone like Samsung. The ads drive me insane, even if they're relatively unobtrusive. At least in that case the TV was much cheaper (~$5

Obviously that's not the point, here. The fact that Samsung has the ability to brick a TV remotely _at all_ is ridiculous. It's not hard to imagine this being used by an attacker to shut down all Samsung TVs remotely, or for plann

Yeah, for sure! I mention it in the README of that library, but one of the motivations I had was to not require you to wrap the errors with my library, like pkg/errors requires you to.

I've just started writing C++ for work, and I have to say, I miss stack traces so much. Even with Go errors the wrapping usually made it easy enough, but with how long it takes to get gdb to launch from core dumps (~1m30 on our binarie

Like the article mentions, they didn't bring over stack traces (namely the `Formatter` interface) from xerrors. I wrote a library[1] around it that would generate true stack traces. I don't use it as much as I used to, because I

I don't believe that applies anymore. That's when the vaccine is under EUA, which it no longer is for 16+.

E2EE implies it's encrypted between the two parties exchanging messages, which it still is. I'm not suggesting that this isn't an immoral circumvention of the system, but it's still certainly end to end encrypted between

In this case, they wouldn't be "between" the ends, no? They'd be _at_ the ends, just as sending a message on Signal doesn't prevent someone from stealing your phone and reading your messages. I'm not in agreeme

I just got a new credit card recently. There definitely still is the space for signatures in the US. I actually once had a store turn me away because I didn't sign it.

This is a bad faith argument. Nowhere did I say, or even imply, you cannot earn a living. You can choose to work for someone who will not require it, such as a company who is remote-first, if this is a problem for you.

This is the first one that has been approved in any capacity by a regulatory authority: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_vaccine#Acceleration

Yes, your body your choice, and also your employer your choice. I prefer to flip the script here: none of your coworkers chose to be subjected to someone who is unvaccinated, increasing their risk.

Thanks for the link! The article feels a lot closer than the headline/first two paragraphs to what I actually see going on.

Impact? Sure. Especially given the controversy around how it's trained. I just don't know that I'd suggest it's changed software development as we know it.

I can't read past the fold here (paywall), but assuming this is about Copilot, it feels a bit disingenuous to suggest it's already "transforming" software development. It's a cool tool, but it's not even availa

#2 is the big one for me. I'm hesitant to install this on a work machine where our code could be sent elsewhere.

Ditto. 10 minutes before I saw this post I declined the opt-in notification for exposure notifications, yet I still had the app.

btw, it's not invite only. The password is just "speakeasy" and was to limit the initial flood of people.

I don't have a citation for how massive the used market is, but I can tell you without a doubt that people in my circles buy used cards, and that I commonly heard it as advice to save a buck.

This is exactly why I'm worried. I took an ML class last semester and having access to CUDA on my 1080Ti (explicitly purchased for gaming) was a boon for my project group, since we could actually tune models efficiently. This might be

I've used https://github.com/nektos/act in the past. It works ok as long as you don't need artifacting.

I much prefer it being collapsed. When dealing with large objects, the firehose can be annoying.

Yeah, I've never seen this before. However, I _did_ learn that the receiver can be a nil pointer, which I've never thought of. It seems to me that this should fail spectacularly anyway, and shouldn't need to be handled there.

What kind of "signals" are being fed into this model? Are we talking like, scroll position relative to a file, and things like that?

I'm a student at a much smaller university than Stanford. I can tell you with confidence your statement of students not leaving campus once they move in cannot work. For one, consider the students who live in off-campus apartments. How

I go to a university where we're doing something similar - weekly testing for everyone at minimum, 2x per week if you're high risk or live in a dorm with a communal bathroom. For the most part, we've been doing well, but rece

I'm in my senior year of college. I seriously considered doing exactly what you're suggesting. I would much rather just suck it up and enter the workforce at this point. I don't know what I'd do with myself for the year,

I wear them when at the grocery store, primarily. There's a lot of high touch there. It's probably overkill, but it makes me feel more comfortable about it.

This was a CVE last year ( https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-6111 ). AFAICT this exploit has been patched.
