> Arguably That's doing a lot of lifting. I think you could make a 50/50 decision at the CEO level for most decisions, and merely by making a decision faster the org would have better profit outcomes.

It's everything you mention in the second paragraph, and additionally just the ability to turn them off. Imagine everyone had their routers disabled simultaneously. I don't know if the cell networks could function with the surge i

This probably refers to the fact that Windows XP still has support contracts. Microsoft commonly calls their software EOL and then supports it for 5+ years. I don't think that's a bad thing, but they tend to use it more as a mar

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I think it would be great to drop this (or something like this) in the project README.

Hmmm I've recently been evaluating https://www.kysely.dev after finding that Prisma can't support foreign data warehousing (FDW) with Postgres. I don't really know enough about Kysely yet to make an informed opini

Have you looked at FolioHD? It's geared towards photographers and artistic types that want a really nice portfolio website. Paying an amount that is just-above-market-rate for a domain and not needing to understand how to configure DNS

Hear hear. Everyone arguing against this seems to want the permanent, forever solution. There isn't one. This isn't software - it's reducing harm over time as best we can, and it's a fight that will take approximately th

Strong agree. I'll tell you the other reason not cited: it slows down organizations. Doing things right to avoid the (seemingly) small chance at being massively wrong is the inverse of the bet that doing many different things quickly h

Now I want to read an article about the economics of selling game hacks. I just assumed they weren't really worth the investment to build since the number of people that want to cheat seems low. After typing that I realize this is li

I meant the intangible, personal gratification that comes with pwning noobs as a reward but fair enough :)

Question for people that build hacks: given how robust this open-source anti-cheat is, does building the cheat give more reward than playing the game? It seems like it would take a ton of hours to be effective..

No, because Azure as an organization consistently lowers the security bar. It's like auditing a dam with a massive leak. https://www.wiz.io/blog/chaosdb-how-we-hacked-thousands-of-a... https://www.npr.o

I had a similar take until about a week ago. A friend showed me his workflow with Copilot and whatever Jetbrains AI assistant is. Use it as a tool: what if instead of opening up a new tab, searching for the API docs for the library you&#x27

lol, the internal docs on this at Amazon were something very close to "we invented this before Avro and we think that's probably a better choice if you need binary serialization." My 2 cents: don't use it.

Why even think about software as a building at all? Just think about it as software. I don't understand the urge to draw parallels to other fields.

Check out the post by Schiit Audio's CEO (I think CEO?): https://www.head-fi.org/threads/schiit-happened-the-story-of... It looks like the audio sector was hit particularly hard by the war in Ukraine.

Depends what fork you're running... Some seem to be using CPU-based generation, others use the MPS device backend correctly which is MUCH faster. I have another comment floating around about lstein's fork, but it takes some massag

Try the lstein fork: https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion/tree/fix-cuda-res... You'll still need to play with modifying some of the code to get it to run, but `dream.py` works for me. Funny enough,
