There was some medical terminology that I didn't understand. The NotebookLLM podcast version is disturbingly good: https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/21c5eddb-ada4-4726-85...

We switched from Wistia to their video streaming offer and literally decimated our video hosting costs. Exactly what we needed with none of the upselling B.S.

Uh yeah, the locale in the link is specifically an Indian locale. If you find it it disorienting you can change en_in to en_us: https://landing.google.com/intl/en_us/advancedprotection/

Compliance with what requires KYC? Nothing in ISO-27001 requires you to collect any information about your customers. Unless there are laws that require you to. Knowing your vendors is another story.

The standards are very sensible. If you can't be bothered to provide even simple evidence that your employees are using basic harddrive encryption, use password managers, and your product has backup in place, I don't want to do bu

Well, yes, but that's the point of many contracts, they are often designed to shift risk to parties that are better equipped to handle those risks. We run our app on GCP because as a 20 person company I don't want to be responsibl

I don't want to work wherever you do your thing. Software as a service means you provide a service, and you should take your responsibility to protect your customer's data super seriously. Compliance frameworks are one useful tool

I can remember something like this a few years ago when a customer emailed our helpdesk with their own internal IT support desk in copy. Our helpdesk at the time sent a complete new email acknowledging the request, which the customer's

One thing that is real is companies using LLMs to fill roles they couldn't afford to spend on before. Like the tourist who uses Google Translate on a trip to Japan: in principle they are saving 10k on the cost of a professional interpr

I've been looking at this a lot, for ourselves (multitenant saas app running on gcp) and for our customers, who are starting to be curious about something between fully self-managed (too costly) and centralized/multi-tenant/a

A record's fields are final, so records are immutable (though they can include immutable pointers to mutable objects)

This honestly sounds like a nightmare: multimegabyte wasm downloads, data corruption in production and byzantine hacks to coordinate writes between tabs. I am very grateful that we chose IndexedDB instead for our application!

I'd encourage you to take another look at the article because I don't think your criticisms are well founded. The javascript version does exist! The fact that it's produced by a compiler doesn't undermine it's exist

The primary point of the article is to compare two compilation targets for a single codebase: JS and WasmGC. It's an extremely timely and interesting topic. The performance of a third compilation target - JVM bytecode provides a useful

Ok, I have to ask: are you a Random Number Generator (RNG) supplier, or a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) supplier, or some other kind of supplier??

I just recently switched from Ubunto to ChromeOS Flex and my quality of life has gone way up. I had so many frustrations with Ubuntu when switching displays, unlocking, sharing screens... all gone with ChromeOS flex and I get to keep my lin

I have written one (gcc-bridge). Fortran is actually a really good fit for JVM byte code. C/c++ is doable, but only with some unpleasant trade offs that others have mentioned here.

It's an academic paper with an intentionally narrow focus. > If being bilingual does have benefits over and above the _broader social, employment, and lifestyle gains_ that are available to speakers of a second language, then it sho

Yikes. There are many many issues here, but the images for the articles are the creepiest. Take a look at this article on conflict in Sudan: https://newsnotfound.com/conflict-in-sudan-causes-concern-fo... You could write a

So far all "my" spammers seem indescriminate. I have the feeling that our form is just another URL on a very very long list, and I see no evidence of adaptation. If there was something of value (besides excellent software) behind

Removing user-controlled input indeed removes the incentive, but for reasons beyond my comprehension, our sign up form _still_ gets periodically blasted. Without additional countermeasures, our sending reputation would be at risk. We apply
