Let's see, so we exclude law, we exclude medical.. it's certainly not a "vast minority" and the failure cases are nothing at all like search or human experts.

It's a shame that there is no steady hardware supply because unfortunately they tend to die sooner or later (from humidity or just the 3.5mm wearing out). I do lots of listening on the phone nowadays of course but nothing beats a simpl

Who is cracking anything? The problem with physical access is that at the end of the day your security is only as good as the flat flex cable transporting your key presses. This is not some science fiction scenario; look at the "addin

While Apple will spend billions on the latest techniques to ensure your iPhone can only run things Apple signed, there is meanwhile a real lack of enthusiasm around the basics like making the central messaging app not a native code shitshow

If someone has access to the hardware you have lost already. The other argument people make is that it prevents "persistence", as in the "authenticated and validated" code is actually a remote code execution engine, but

"Secure boot", despite the name, really has very very little to do with security and everything with only running "sanctioned" code, even if that sanctioned code is an ancient browser engine or 300 MiB worth of .text.

You don't believe it's a sign of a failed market when an ISP charges both their customers and companies like Twitch for the same data transfer?

That seems like a problem. Emulating the protocol is okayish-to-gray but having the binary there will just be a straight DMCA. Wonder what the actual app is doing since this is just the PoC.

They reduced the default tip amount, hide tip information from delivery drivers and moved the tipping to after the order, all together ensuring that tipping happens less & for lower amounts.

And as an additional incentive, DoorDash has decided to fuck with tips!

Because the project makes the claim that it was to save cost. The reality is that most of the cost is in paying an electrician for the install, and since he did that part himself anyway he could have just went for an off-the-shelf certified

There is nothing there? It connects to nothing? There is no reason to be there and no pedestrian wants to be there. It exists purely to facilitate this absurdly overbuilt intersection (and bizarrely, a bunch of parking spots).

Yes, we know what annualised means. People also report annualised inflation and many other things this way. Pick a metric, report it consistently, it really doesn’t matter too much exactly which you choose. (It is ironic you would compare t

Yes, a curious lawsuit that was, it seems the software bugs were discriminating against the elderly and the otherwise unaware. The darnedest thing. (Ironically you can look at say Bosch ECUs and will find much the same: thousands of global

Did someone test this at all? It takes like 3 clicks to get to a "not found".

Ok, but you also just non ironically said "collaborating on an OKR".

It's funny, you clearly read the news in this very thread (US publicly denouncing a kill plot on US soil), yet you absolutely don't manage to connect the two.

That's my problem when people talk of C++ as if it was a sane, consistent language with a common style and doctrine like C#. You could get anything between C with classes and turbo template metaprogramming header only Boost specials. J

Spotify started the EU antitrust case on Apple: https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/28/23618264/eu-antitrust-cas... Also of course, Spotify is somewhat of a monopoly of its own, or a chosen 'winner&#x27

No, a process gets its environment variables from the operating system (just like argc, argv) before any code is ever executed and the majority never change them.

If Microsoft had to put out a statement "its all good we got the source code" clearly the openness of OpenAI was lost a while ago. This move of the board was presumably primarily good for the board.

That is not too unusual for software companies on IPO, lots of them paying $5 to acquire $1 in revenue. I think the common justification is that new customers will stick around for years.

Well 750kW with a 700kWh pack is only a bit above a 1C charge rate which .. is not terribly much at all. Not sure what this says about the other statements in this article.

Nice idea but big chip design strikes again: on the latest Raspberry Pi, GPIO pins are handled by the separate IO chip connected over PCI Express. So now all your GPIO stuff needs to traverse a shared serial bus (that is also doing bulk stu
