I always enter US with all of my devices wiped and restore them from backup once I'm past immigration, simply because I don't trust government to maintain the security level my job requires. Now I'm worried that this will be

I did witness ai output advantage dwindle as codebase grew in a team of experienced devs who switched to 99% ai generated changes. The last time I've checked ai still had an edge adding new features, but the team collectively lost the

I think that question hinges on the second part of your comment and should be answered as: Does anyone know any company that went back to hand-written code because it decided drawbacks of ai generated code or some other concerns outweight t

My dedicated server comes with 2TB/month data included. Humans use up about 2% of that. If I didn't block bots I'd run out mid-month.

No. The risk of being denied entry to US and my lack of interest in visiting US share a reason. That's the only change vs 5 years ago as far as governments are concerned. As for corporate I've always assumed no internal communicat

I've got a fairly new Toyota and I when I found myself needing a 2nd car for my family I ended up buying a 20 year old Honda and I have to say I enjoy driving it much more. I might also be safer in it - oversensitive security systems n

People are selling those older cars at a significant discount compared to previous years, because they got banned from low emission zones - you need euro 5 for diesel and euro 4 for petrol to be allowed in centers of many of large EU cities

Property managers handling municipal property in mid+ cities will want one. Any company dealing with construction waste disposal will want one. Both will have no problem shelling out 1000 euro per unit.

This is already the case in most (all?) EU countries. Government-issued photo ID is required to activate a SIM card. If you really need a burner you can still get one - there are people who activate SIM cards in bulk using their ID and rese

More often than not security minded people are encouraged to focus on things that get the product to market faster instead.

I suspect you mean register/renew: Depends. If it's something really high priority (like main domain for a large corporation) I'd likely be paying CSC 4 digit sums per domain per year. For stuff a tier below that I'd be

They are not, but npm is uniquely bad in that regard. Refusal to implement security features that would have made attacks like this harder really doesn't help https://github.com/node-forward/discussions/issues

I'd agree if you could stick them in the containers discharged, but you can't. This means that even safer chemistry like sodium battery is still hazardous cargo.

The small handful of sodium batteries that are currently available retail all seem to have rather bad roundtrip efficiency compared to LFP and voltage drop starting at a high state of charge. Also LFP prices dropped enough that shipping cos
