Maybe something to do with him disabling starlink for a certain Ukrainian military operation AND rumors of Russia using starlink as well.

If dust is the problem then you start at the top and work your way down. Ie Clean ceiling fans, Dust, then wipe surfaces then vacuum.

Last update will spam the user to upgrade their computer. If they could brick it and get away with it they would.

This is a thought terminating cliche.

Just what I’ve been looking for, it supports offline playing!

Our current government is all too happy to build weapons with borrowed money. What taxation does is it causes deflation, and a wealth tax has the benefit of deflating the power of the ultra-wealthy.

People are right to point out that he should not simply cut a check to the government, instead he should lobby for higher wealth taxes like he lobbies for patents or voucher schools. Anything less is just free PR.

Proprietary software makers: our software is more secure than open source because the public can’t go looking for bugs to exploit.

Fantastic read, shared at work and now following on mastodon. Also had this thought in regards to my own work:

… I find it reflects a similar problem we’re having with our code base: “simple is not always easy”. This article points out that Generative AI does what is easy/cheap, when what we really need is simplicity (or simplified complexity)

There’s probably another article to write about this, I would title it: “Generative AI won’t solve your Cynefin domain problem”

American/white/Millennial: Center-right. It recognizes the limits of capitalism without collectivizing the means of production.

And now we accelerate the process with generative AI, resampling data into “new” content for profit. But I can’t shake the feeling this will be an undoing, like it somehow devalues the collated data becauce it becomes so abundant (and synthetic).

“because I feel like it” is a good enough reason to give a stranger.

For most eras, how hard it was to make a good sandwich. And I’m not just talking about the past.

Guy is probably getting scared of his board members and is wanting to secure himself from being outed. There’s a reason why we are now hearing about his drug problem, and those stories are likely coming from his board members.

The problem with eating the rich is all the crazy drugs they take makes their meat rancid. Zuck however is probably the tastiest due to is wagyu diet and exercise routine.

Don’t bring a gun to a tank fight. Don’t even need to shoot back, just roll over them if they don’t get out of the way.

Speaking of which… Don’t you just love how changing the volume on your phone causes the audio indicator to overlap the button that let’s you skip ads?

I don’t always click on a YouTube ad, but when I do it’s a UI failure because it’s an accidental click. How much do you want to bet this crackdown is a distraction from the fact their ad system doesn’t perform as well as advertised?

Having contempt for voters is like blaming the weather when it rains. Maybe the candidate should have came prepared with an umbrella, but here we are.

In most cases I agree, with the exception of security clearances. That’s a give and take.
