The problem is that it leads to a classic game theory situation - where if you, an informed citizen, know that cops are allowed to lie to you, that the logical conclusion is to never believe a cop under any circumstance. It is deeply hostil

While I agree with this in the aggregate and I think this problem is likely to take care of itself for many companies - I can’t help but be frustrated with it right now. It is unbelievably grating to have colleagues that are plainly over-r

While they are often used interchangeably, it is not uncommon for people to make the distinction between jail and prison in the US. It can definitely come across as a “Frankenstein’s monster” type of pedantic correction, but they truly do m

Comparing Rust to blockchain is a level of cynicism that seems deeply self defeating

A large amount of important Python libraries are still missing a good amount of typing - and dealing with third party typesheds is not a good developer experience. The implementation of types in cpython has also been glacially slow and frag

Sure, but that is the norm for any given game system. Early adopters are enthusiasts who want the latest and greatest and accept that there are few exclusive experiences on the new console. Most hold on to their older system as the catalog

One would hope they learned from the mistakes of the Wii U - and based on their first release about it, and supporting backwards compatibility, it seems they have. The switch 2, as shown so far is much closer to the original switch’s design

No, not even close. Nintendo is not a VC funded startup fighting for their survival. The Nintendo switch 2 is right around the corner and looks like it is going to sell extremely well, after the massive success of the switch 1 Patents are n

The approach I took to make entering data in to sheets a little less awful: 1. Setup the google sheet 2. Create a simple AppScript script that accepts Name/Amount/?Date 3. Attach AppScript to the google sheet 4. Set up shortcut th

That’s what they mean by “force” - if this does happen, the government will have a hand in the behind-closed-door negotiations with potential buyers. Company forced to sell cannot simply set an absurd price to evade regulators, as that woul

They’re already going after sponsor reads. On iOS with YouTube premium, I get a button prompt asking if I want to skip a commonly skipped sections. 9/10 it’s the sponsor read. The remaining 1/10 is patreon I haven’t seen much abou

I can’t help but wish that Apple would provide the handful of features needed to make a Mac mini into a competent home server.

The criticisms of Walmart 15 years ago are still pretty valid today, so I’m not sure this whataboutism really resonates with people. It seems completely reasonable to split brick and mortar sales from web-based, given that the business mode

Typically I see “u” used in instances where it is the actual SI Unit prefix for 10^-6, and leaving it as “mirco” is used when in its more common form for “very small”

*In the states Google filed this complaint to the European Commission - and given the EC’s recent decisions around the tech giants in general- it is probably wise for azure to address this now. This fee is brazenly anticompetitive.

My assumption was that they are looking to stop kids from spraying the cans; in-store vandalism

I would assume that is more tied to vandalism then theft though

As someone who likes the smaller phone form factor, it was a real bummer that they’re discontinuing this size. But on the other hand, as someone who needs to accommodate mobile UI, the mini was a bit of a thorn in my side. Conflicted

It’s a really bad look for crowdstrike to be going down this route. Then again, I don’t think many companies are going to be adopting crowdstrike in the coming years, so I suppose their only option is to defend their stock value at any cost

by LordKeren 2y ago
There is recourse, just not for normal people, as you eluded to. Companies are and will be continuing to sue crowdstrike, and based on the papers that crowdstrike has posted, the impacted companies are extremely likely to be successful. It
