The fact this study even exists is a sign of something having gone very wrong IMHO. The notion of tracking if time spent on anything helps “prevent burnout” speaks volumes to how we view ourselves as consumables. The whole culture we have

It's 1AM in San Francisco right now. I don't envy the person having to call Matthew Prince and wake him up for this one. And I feel really bad for the person that forgot a closing brace in whatever config file did this.

Claude offline too. 500 errors on the web and the mobile app has been knocked out.

Seems like it. Claude just went offline and is throwing Cloudflare 500 errors on the web interface.

I was under the impression (admittedly from an article I read a couple of years ago) that the consensus within the company was pretty much always that robo-taxis were one man’s pipe dream. Weren’t there also disclosure documents a couple of

All of which would be better than what the post is advocating and I totally agree with this.

I don’t think we need to be calling people incompetent over a disagreement. Are you suggesting that not opening the ports to any other services means they’re no longer a vulnerability concern? That would be.. concerning.

Literally no-one said that. (Some of) the reasons why you would do this are explained (I thought clearly) above. None of this is security through obscurity.

I agree in principal but not in practice here. If you’re using a typical docker host, say CoreOS, following a standard production setup, then running your app as a container on top of that (using an already hardened container that’s been au

It’s great that this isn’t hurting them but it leaves out a lot that makes me a bit nervous about this being taken as advice. They’re advocating deploying a binary as preferable to using docker, fair enough, but what about the host running

That’s a rather generous assumption. Do Apple definitely not retain a key? If they don’t is the encryption quantum secure?

That seems like the worst option. Everything up to the free tier would stay there forever with no way for you to ever request it to be deleted.

I do think you can build products and services that people will capital-L Love, even forgiving some warts too, but the bar for that is very high. I’m very skeptical of tech businesses not led by engineers for exactly this reason (the incen

I mean, Op started right off the bat with the idea that op would love to live in a communist society. By all means Op can say that they agree with some Marxist ideas, but when the real human costs of that model are very well proven out by n

I like the approach taken here. Nextcloud is becoming the defacto open-personal-cloud standard so it makes sense to integrate photos into that. If Nextcloud were getting up to shenanigans in the future I'm confident the project would

I’d love to hear more about this switch as a family member is considering something similar as a 42 y/o. If you don’t mind, was it long ago that you made this switch? Was there anything that you’d do differently in retrospect? The big

To be honest I’ve come to suspect I may be guilty of this myself. I’m trying to do better at being open-minded to unpopular opinions (not always successfully).

That’s the more bizarre decision to me. I get that some suits have decided PC isn’t a threat to Playstation’s business model, but they’re just wrong. A gaming PC will play PC/Xbox/Playstation/Switch exclusives now. That reall

Ok. Slave wages too. My point is that all technology is built on prior discoveries and all matter of other factors that produce the civilisation, that produces doohickies, to look up cat memes.

I think what's more likely in this case is that MS under Satya really does want to be a good corporate citizen, but are finding themselves in a bind that threatens the whole organisation. They're spending up the wazoo on Xbox, s
