Looks somehow cool. Although it is AGPL, I strangly have this bias against Chinese software. Particularly that you have to pay for E2EE cloud sync seems strange in this context. Would be a great case of FOSS if trust can still be establishe

I agree, it is still the most reliable way to aggregate multiple media sources and luckily far from dead. Does anyone else uses messenger bots to aggregate RSS? I use manybot [1] and it has moved RSS to the modern world for me. [1] https:&

We do this as part of our university practical course as well (2 week challenges in teams of 4, sometimes participating also in external competitions). While I agree that this good for learning, I would, however, say it is completary to lec

Worst thing seems that verbatim does not even react to https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-2838... and continues to sell those as secure.

I have the same problem after a year or so with my Xiaomi Redmi Note phones (7 and 10). In the end it is sometimes easier to charge with a USB-A to USB-C cable, because USB-PD signalling easily breaks if the connector is worn out. I do not

Sorry for being imprecise: I ment a much larger specialized semiconductor industry, that did not survive the market pressure. True that Bosch, Osram and Siemens (now Infineon) have survived. But I think things like RAM production moved out

Germany used to have a semiconductor industry like Intermetall (acquired by micronas acquired by TDK). The problem is that IMHO German automotive industry is not willing to pay a cent more than necessary. They do only care about short term

Selling binaries is a something even GPL foresees. You can view telemetry as the price: if the product is free, you are the product. This has become a predominant business modell since most users seem unwilling to pay for sth that you can g

They actually put an umlaut into the official name to really make sure it won't be used correctly internationally?

Actually they have been ''globalized': They moved from Bonn (as still in the name) a few km across the state border to to Rhineland Palladia. At least that is what I saw driving by on the highway. I guess to save taxes. Anoth

I also have been discussing this idea with others for some time and wonder how it can be exploited to break or improve the patent system. While some now try to patent things build by an AI, I think the other would be interesting: creating r

For my excises I started to allow copy/cheating etc because students will cheat themselves. On the other hand I even did on site oral exams (20-40 per course, so it is still manageable) during the pandemic (using video terminals). Part

Sounds very much like history repeating [1]. They still cannot provide a stable fix and claim that it is not a certificate problem in their communication to users. This is somehow unlikely as this would also explain why remote updates won&

This sounds really interesting! I wonder what kind of scaling use cases neon is good for. Is it e.g. good for custom scenarios like a geospatial timeseries database on top of postgres? We have admittedly not really a clue about current data

You are assuming that the author is in control of the review process, why can't that be part of scientific organisation or e.g. conferences. Actually preprints already do this, the only difference is that things are typically finalized

He is not arguing in favour of removing peer review but prepublication peer review. And I like the idea: in many disciplines it actually prevents finding error after publication, because the bar is really high to get any fixed after publica

As far as I understand data can only become anonymous as soon as the part that can lead to reidentification is actually deleted. We have such a case with the release of an 'anonymized' dataset , where the original data or the reid

I think the GDPR is pretty clear: it is illegal to process personal data if you cannot apply an exception listed in the regulation. Also all data that might be deanonymized by some means is personal data. The message is clear: if you put ot

I admit the clickbait part if you look at it from an open source/open hardware perspective, however, with the title I wanted to rather follow up on the lacking trackpoint keyboard for a repairable modular laptop. And you are also right

I really like it too. The problem seems to be actually to get it. It is a B2B product and they very much seem to be about extra services. However, there seem to be resellers that have webshops. The trackpoint alone makes me want to have one

Actually it took me long time until I think I somehow grasped the reason for those years of life lost or similar metrics in epidemiology: As far I understand it it is rather a measure of ranking to inform regulatory action. It is not really
