Can you share some resources/books/courses to learn more? I'm interested in exploring working with Chinese vendors and it would be nice to learn from someone else before jumping into it.

How is being able to make phone calls prevent you from being tracked? You're still going to be constantly pinging those cell towers with a unique identifier.

Why is it so hard to believe that the police can use our devices to backtrack us, as both carriers and police officers have said numerous times?

No, we could have had something which other previous species didn't that unlocked the use of tools. Otherwise if no species could be the first, or it would be deemed spontaneous, no new skills could be unlocked.

Yep, a next token predictor is comparable to the fall of the roman empire. That makes total sense. In all seriousness, who upvoted this kind of content? I am not saying that it's impossible for us to be headed anywhere negative in the

I take the opportunity to let people know that there are alternatives to Google/Apple duopoly on mobile. Link: https://www.ubuntu-touch.io/ Sure, GrapheneOS is often suggested but Ubuntu Touch is a really interesting a

Why jump to another abuser when you could seriously start looking into alternatives? Ubuntu Touch has a really active community and it's very stable, you can even emulate android apps which you might absolutely need. I don't see A

Here is my very simple view: - exact reuse of a long-ish word sequence(s) without credits -> not cool. - complete/partial reinterpretation of an already existing story in different words -> it's fine - Traced/almost ide

Either you want to support the authors and give them the price they ask or don't. You being on this platform gives me the assumption that you can definitely find pretty much any PDF on the Internet for free, in a way or another.

Interesting concept but in the current format it feels like a game to bring out exactly once with a very specific group (or perhaps an unexpecting child), play for 10-15min, smile to oneself and then put the deck where these sorts of games

Exactly this. Not sure what code other people who post here are writing but it cannot always and only be bleeding edge, fringe and incredible code. They don't seem to be able to get modern LLMs to produce decent/good code in Go or

I find the "i" quite excruciating to look at. Also would like to see more examples, say including this deep math.

Dog poo is detrimental to the environment and us, so that would only make things worse actually.

Yep, I think that's it for me too. That's why I realised that I really enjoy embedded systems, as they often include a good level of physical world in their architecture. Using ES in a farming setting is even more satisfying becau

Yep, let's accept the monstrous industries which lock down culture for money. I for one support their efforts. The same way we store seeds in vaults deep in the depths of the earth, we should do this for digital content too, and withou

And that's why helping torrenting and seeding the content of AA is vital: they can take down a domain name but not block everyone who seeds. I said this before but if you've got some spare GB/TB on a computer/server, con

Funny how a simpler and self-made website is seen as "dodgy af" but geocity 90s mash of stuff is "nostalgic". It's not the neatest but it feels real, like these guys are into entertainment for parties, not web desig

I follow the mantra "Inbox <20". Inbox 0 is not flexible enough and freestyle Inbox is not manageable in the long term. Together with filters, freely reporting as spam/unsubscribing, my Inbox <20 becomes a sort of todo
