I don't get it. Are mechanisms in our ID cards not strong enough so that we have to rely on the security of the operating system?

Must be missing something - is there a way to save progress?

I might be alone with this, but I don't find it very entertaining.

How is Iran weakened, in what sense? It suffered economic damage and casualties for sure, but I don't think there is anything it cannot recover from. It's just a pure destructive rage from US side without thinking of any long-term

We (many of us) are not fans of participating in a war without clear achievable objectives and a legal justification that also makes our lives objectively worse.

I mean, they are controlling Hormuz Strait now - they were not before the war. In addition they are now free to sell their own oil, because the sanctions have been lifted. And I can't see why they would stop supporting Russia with dr

Not saying market can't expand at all. Prices can go down, waiting times can go down, but still people only need that many faucets installed. If we seriously expect whits collar jobs not be a thing anymore, then I am not seeing trades

There is no reason why market for plumbing will get much larger than it is now (which is not too large)

European Commission is basically as close to being EU's government as it can be, it is fair to say these are the people that represent EU now. Much like it's fair to say that US is bombing Iran even if not all of the US is doing t

Depends on your ethics I guess? In my view fair distribution is an equitable one, which is also the principle that helps to keep society stable. Not that researchers and business people should not be rewarded for their achievement, but the

People don't need self-help advise, they need a fair redistribution of increased productivity. We don't make a big deal of our jobs because we are stupid - it's the society that assigns this or that income to this or that job

As a parent I would appreciate if it came with an age recommendation.

Salespeople sell things that already exist. If you can envision new things that would sell well, that's a bit more than sales talent

That's an expression of class thinking from the beginning IMO. People think of themselves as thinkers and creators, while those who do labour they rely on without getting too much into details are merely doers and can ideally be replac

Reminds me of some British MP who said around Brexit time Britain is not leaving Europe geographically . Anyway, Russia or Turkey are geographically in Europe too, but when we are talking about "European regulation", it's pr

OK, I can see how you can call UK irrelevant, but unstable? Currently it looks much more stable that the major nuclear powers of US and Russia.

I am still not sure why everyone jumped on uv. Sure, it's quicker than pip, but an installation rarely takes so long as to become annoying. Anyway, pip is still there, so whatever impact they have made can be rolled back if they try to

You can easily hire a person from Ohio to work for your company incorporated in California without having a separate legal entity in Ohio. Not the case in EU.

Still a phone for over 1000€ is crazy. Iphone 17 is much cheaper, and iphones are supposed to be the most expensive smartphones in my book.

I find the same problem applying to coding too. Even with everyone acting in good faith and reviewing everything themselves before pushing, you have essentially two reviwers instead of a writer and a reviewer, and there is no etiquette mand

That has become pretty controversial recently, but I think the difference is that in software development, building knowledge is the work. You write software and simultaneously build expertise in your team regarding what the software does

Yeah, that's what I mean - prototypes. The caveat is though that before agentic coding skills to build a prototype and skills to build a production system were generally the same, so a prototype did not only provide a demonstration of

What is the category of code that does not need quality? You need it to not interact with real world, with people's finances, with people's personal data. Basically it's the code that only exists for PMs to show to investors

I think we should already get past pretending it's about people who just like typing words on their stupid mechanical keyboards. The real split is whether you like understanding systems and inventing new things or whether you are OK to

I'm afraid the coalition has no idea what to do with the islamic regime in question. Unless it will be toppled from inside, the best the coalition can offer is more bombs (until it becomes too much of a strain for the budget).

I've been editing my comments (not in English) with specialized spell-checking services, and I don't think they change my voice in any meaningful way. I suspect when people say they are using LLMs to fix their grammar, it's a
