I agree with that sentiment in general but even though I've seen systems in continuous operation for 15 years, I've never seen anything make it to 20. I wouldn't write something with the external expectation it never made it

Without getting overly political, it is nihilistic because one of the major US parties got so high on its own supply of lies that the people currently running it FORGOT they were lying. You're looking at a similar situation to many aut

Having been adjacent to this for years, it's because it's a cost center and not attached to the bonus of any product or program manager. Every now and then we'll get an advocate for security/integrity at a company but th

They have three cameras, well, had three. The south rim camera (v3) was overrun by the eruption at about 0957 local time, you can rewind the stream and watch its final moments.

I think it would be more accurate to say there was not enough cross-licensing. The generally preferable model seems to be service platforms that compete with each other, but with access to all the same production companies that also compete

Interesting. Maybe my adblocker is getting a lot of that, what I noticed amongst my etsy-using friends was that Etsy itself was being flooded with the same sort of incredibly cheap "artisanal" as what Temu looks to be selling. It

Learning itself is not obsolete. Burning scarce time on arcana associated with various platforms and libraries may become so. The various LLMs are decently good at recreating known solutions to problems that may require arcane knowledge, wh

Which is what the data-hoarding crowd has been doing for a while. Storage is relatively cheap, you can get extraordinarily large amounts of it for a few thousand USD if you aren't super concerned about five-9s uptime and Google still l

Most of the other "Better C" languages never got the inertia to overcome C++ so that's not really a unique case. Go and Rust both had key organizational buy-in from large and culturally important orgs early on which is why th

I gave the police a 4k camera video of a crime happening and they did nothing with it. This is pretty standard police laziness in the US, individual cops might care but departments overall give zero shits for small people except as revenue

With purely hosted media there is no way for purist fans to ever have the "original" or whatever version of it, unlike the people who were swapping around laserdisc and 35mm versions of the unspoilt cuts of Star Wars, etc.

Not specifically addressed at you, but it's a bit amusing watching a younger generation of programmers rediscovering things like this, which seemed hugely important in like 1990 but largely don't matter that much to modern workflo

Staring at electronic displays is generally considered unhelpful for trying to get to sleep due to both the light and rapid-attention span activities, having it under the pillow is probably equally harmless as the dozen other EMF sources ar

Do you know if the original order was from Reolink? If I had to guess, that may have been a questionable reseller, I've seen several cases in which it looks like you're ordering from SomeCorp as fulfilled by Amazon but once you ge

That is not the case as this is messages sent TO protonmail. It may be related anti-whatever measures, but is not typical anti-spam.

Protonmail specifically seems to have strange problems with some old and busted email systems, ex: I've seen several government ministries in Taiwan (roc) that for some reason can not send email to protonmail or domains MXed there and

Feinstein's hard authoritarian and surveillance state preferences haven't endeared her to many people who are also shocked and outraged by the usual collection of utterly repugnant red senators, so option B there.

It would be interesting to see if there were any reliable stats on how many, if any, people were caught by the ID check laws trying to manufacture from pseudoephedrine, because even at the height of the meth panic that engendered the laws s

It really is amazing how someone manages to be on the wrong side of seemingly everything, and yet is locked into office past the point of senility.

What do you expect when dealing with an environment as deliberately toxic as Twitter, with millions of bots fake-networking all over the place to be later used to generate fake hype or fake support, and the engagement schemes optimized for

Again outside my area of expertise here, but to my understanding one of the significant risks to breast cancer is that if it spreads into the lymphatic tissue, it can subsequently metastasize across the across multiple other organs while co

Many years ago, another division of my employer got caught bribing Nigeria. As a result, a bunch of people who were never in a position to do so had to sit through hours of ethics training. Some of it came with oddly specific examples. Half

More likely that Microsoft learned a very good lesson from their 1990s encounter with the DOJ, but it wasn't the hoped for "stop doing illegal and unethical things" but instead "make more and better targeted political co

Also depends a lot on the nature of the screening and what is being screened for. Prostate cancer being somewhat of an outlier as at least to my understanding, essentially all men will end up with some kind of tumor or another if they live

This is, incidentally, the same basic reason why so many knee-jerk policies produce systems that can never do anything but fail. When trying to find needles in hay stacks, since the needle (let's say terrorists trying to board airplane

This is amazingly great for how simple the idea is, going to have to play with the output a bit to poke around for strange edge cases (it is sh, after all) but given all the random devices out there with Busybox or similar this could end up

I had a couple of minor bills like this with companies I barely ever deal with, and at one point I bothered to look at my credit rating. The material impact of a few unpaid items was to drop the bullshit FICO rating from 840 to 810. As in n
