I don't think that's really it - the public has some appetite for corporate scandal, modulo short attentive spans, and the human element really sells the story. Unfortunately, we absolutely do have a free press here, it's jus

Fucking TR-069. BT used to reboot my router every day at 03:00, right when I was trying to read reddit. To your point. ISPs send out the shittiest cheapest routers. I doubt they are physically capable of imaging to any reasonable degree. If

AIUI: - developer time is approximately fungible with money - project delivery is building a thing, that you own, and that has value, and that you will use to produce other value... - ...which can therefore be entered on the balance sheet.

Circumstantial evidence is still evidence. I'll acknowledge that this is extremely tenuous, but: the NSA has gimped algos before, wants to do it again as frequently as possible, and has the capacity to do so. Unfortunately, at some poi

As a senior professional in any field, you would, if you could, move from a reactive strategy to a proactive one.

I'm a massive Aliens fan, and your word choice gave me a vivid picture of a vulnerability as a xenomorph egg leads to a swarm of nightmarish monsters invading the colony. I don't know which species is worse. You don't see the

Sort of. In pwsh on Linux, ls and cp are the same binaries you'd call from bash. The Powershell equivalents, aliased to gci and copy, are implemented in Powershell, but not part of the shell, they are modules. Some core modules ship wi

Yep, a proper cuppa needs the water at absolute boiling. 1000m above sea level is high enough that I won't even bother trying to brew a cuppa; it just won't hit the spot. Milk is a factor. Weirdly for a country with a robust appro

Tangential, but I had my mind blown in about 2009 by a big hypervisor running Windows remote desktop hosts. I believe it was Citrix. The VMs booted from images. The image and the mutable differencing disks were entirely in RAM (although use

Yes please. Anything, _anything_ that undermines whatsapp's share is good. I refuse to install it because it won't install without access to your contacts. That's fucking unconscionable. I resent that other people have certai

Unfortunately there's a dark incentive. Providing support costs money, but an automated phone menu does not (or at least, it's negligible). So you want to chuck your customers into hold music hell and winnow out as many as you can

Negative. It ceases to be adaptive to be a cheater when cheaters exceed a certain percentage of the population. The advantage comes from information asymmetry. Law makes cheating less adaptive. But even without law, cheats would not exceed

I like the idea of "discreet hardware". "Oh, you have tensor cores? I had no idea." "One does not like to brag."

It's not obvious to me that working out will reduce your car premiums. I can imagine a gym rat being more likely to crash than a saggy middle-ager.

I'd rather use Blazor, or Jinja. But I hate react, js, and front end work, so maybe I'm not the target audience. I clicked the link out of morbid horror.

IME, managing runtimes. Not GP, but: Oh, JRE too old? Link to download the latest? Now it accepts the JRE, but the JRE refuses it with security errors. So you turn those checks off and the jnlp runs but crashes with an obscure error. So you

I'm glad you brought up iteration in the context of waterfall. I do agree that the elements of analysis/reqs/spec etc are all vital. What isn't obviously necessary is that they happen in a rigid linear sequence. The poin
