Yes compared to the "classical" way of using an Arduino and maybe some ethernet shield, ESP8266 felt like a real revolution (in the hobbieist space). They were powerful enough to do useful work and you didn't have to worry ab

As another user posted at least in Germany the laws were changed to account for this.

You forgot the best "feature": It allows you to take your hands off the wheel and your eyes off the road. This is significant as it means MB takes on liability and will give you sufficient time (i think 10s in the European version

Looks like the initial results confirm Netflix's view on the market. Just reaffirms that public outcries should always be paired with reliable data. They knew what they were doing, tested it out in several markets and prepared cheaper

I'm strongly in favor of banning secondary currencies with varying conversion factors in games.If you want money, price your goods in €/$ etc. Alternatively a 1:1 conversion rate to strengthen the connection between price and &quo

For me it's because most good subreddits are focused on a single issue and not using the home feed let's you avoid all the "hot political issues of the day" where everything has been said millions of times. I don't

It's fairly easy to imagine a 13 old knowing that whatever they are doing is "wrong" but totally underestimating the scale and impact. Perhaps they were expecting a few harsh words at most and that was a price they were &quot

I feel like there is only so much "interesting" stuff going on in the lives of the people I care about. The need for SM companies to get more of my time requires them to shower me with increasingly irrelevant content to keep my en

I am doing that for a just for fun side project and it was an interesting experience. The pieces and features i wanted exist but tying them together was not always straight forward. From the top of my head I used: - actix-web - tracing (log

Yes he is guaranteed to have access to some case library software. Why he didn't verify the existence of these cases spit out by a tool he used for the first time is beyond me. It would have taken him a few minutes at most to discover

Forward thinking for him to try out ChatGPT for his work. Nothing wrong with experimenting with a potential helpful tool. But just as I review and correct code snippets it produces, he should have verified the results because nothing indica

The GDPR allows for fines based on global revenue to prevent companies playing games with where there income is "technically" generated.

I did and do try it with GPT4 and the API and a custom prompt to help me in rust. Expecting only knowledge from 2021 it is hit and miss. Helped me to write some scripts but still fails to recognize tasks that are not possible in the languag

Mostly for use cases which are isolated and with a technology I'm not very familiar (like rust proc macros) and which are hard to Google. I'll give it a system prompt in the spirit of "you assist experts with developing softw

It is better and has become a valuable resource to me (via the API). Currently it suffers from being very expensive (I blew through my 30€ monthly budget in a few hours of intensive use for coding). Also it still is very confidently wrong i

Maybe to put you mind a little bit at ease anecdotally, I never had a USB-c plug or socket fail on me even with intense (ab)use. The same is true for my immediate family It probably happens though. I had cheap-o cables break but this is har

If I recall correctly the EU explicitly and intentionally excempted wireless charging from this regulation. The argument was that this technology is not yet mature enough to standardize and should be allowed extra time to develop further. T

I'm usually fine with regulation (and what it costs) that benefit the consumers but I'm not fine with apple (or any private company) being the arbitrator. Apple is only beholden to it's shareholder and I have 0 influence on t

I can imagine that customers are annoyed by laggy UIs but don't weigh that very highly when deciding to buy a new car. Especially if the competition is roughly equally slow, the costs to engineer a responsive solution might be to high

Cargo culting probably. Everybody is talking about ChatGPT so "obviously" it's the right tool for any job imaginable. Don't need to review the output because it's "omnipotent".

Since Option 1. require them to look further than the next 1 or 2 years it'll absolutely be Option 2 I think.

They'll have to provide a way for edge cases like if someone moves from the US to the EU. In General the US government will have to come up with their own version of the DMA if they or their voters deem it important.

They could try some shenanigans like requiring "certification" to side load anything and that would come with a contract. It would be struck down by the courts and version 2 of this regulation but for a few years it would be there

That's a terrific use case. I love seeing technology enabling people to do things they weren't able to do before. Especially if it's technology about which I'm still somewhat sceptical.

Following the typical cycle of adversial compliance by industry, politicans will immediatly start working on round 2 to plug the holes. I believe this is much better than being to broad on the first attempt. And maybe apple decides that thi

I understand your concern and share some of them. However the solution to overreaching unaccountable private cooperations cannot be to hand all the power to another private unaccountable company. Apple is venturing into advertising and that

IANAL but as I understand it there is, currently, no way to legally use a service for personal data handling that falls under the US CLOUD act. In theory Amazon could license their brand and software to an independent (!) European company t

Do they not deport foreigners who try to flee justice or is she a citizen in either country. Both are allies of the US and even though France is from time to time prone to do some diplomatic PR stunts they don't exactly love her kind o
