I don't think we are offloading thinking to AI. We just started to use it. AI is a tool useful to write text, for a fast searching, for the boring work. Personally I don't take the first answer, I like to challenge, to ask why, to

The BBC article doesn't specify the text with the image, but I clearly see a procedural gap in the police department. Accusing a man who only posted a photo, reorganizing the search based on an unverified photo, it's a big failure

Titles are really a trap cannot reveal the real work, everything it's related to the size of company, type of organization and sector. A "top" position in a small company could be a mid one in a big tech but with a narrow fi

An alternative, open and freely accessible OS for mobile computing is always good for a healthy market. Most of us have a limited view of the global market and don't know which areas prefer de-Googled OSs. If all of India or Africa de

Governments that require age verification for operating systems to protect children also drop bombs on civilian neighborhoods, fight wars that orphan millions and tolerate child labor, exploitation, poverty. History teaches us governments a

This law perfectly demonstrates the constraint problem: regulators assumed age verification is a simple checkbox at account setup. Right now I'm on an ESP32 with free RTOS, will I need to add a keyboard and display just for age verific

Registration just creates friction for legitimate developers (thousands) while bad actors simply rotate shell companies and fake/stolen IDs. This conflates identity verification with criminal deterrence, they're not the same thing

Look at Chinese smartphone brands: Xiaomi, OnePlus took their slice from Samsung. Same pattern will play out with RAM and SSD. In 3-5 years, it won't be 'Samsung' on the label, it'll be 'Li Tech' or equivalent.

Western memory manufacturers decided to chase the AI bubble, abandoning the consumer and low-requirement markets entirely. Chinese manufacturers are now capturing that entire segment with full vertical integration. When this bubble stabiliz

Not long ago, Italian Supreme Court (Cassazione, ord. 34217/2025) established a critical principle reflecting a broader trend in personal data management: the "digital image" of a person must reflect their actual current situ

I remember when I went from 286 to 486dx2, the difference was impressive, able to run a lot of graphical applications smoothly. Ironically, now I'm using an ESP32-S3, 10x more powerful, just to run Iot devices.

I wonder if the bow drill principle for boring holes evolved from fire-starting techniques, where the same reciprocal motion was already understood and mastered in that years. Just speculation, but it suggests how practical problem-solving

I think archaeology requires a multidisciplinary approach that has only recently begun to emerge. For too long, especially in past centuries, archaeologists focused on history and languages while neglecting engineering, chemistry and the pr

I agree that the ceiling of 4h is correct for high intense cognitive activities and that morning, after few hours after woke up, is the best time for these activities. And I would add that trying to do more the same day will affect the ne

I've carefully read this interesting discussion: some political, mostly about full cloud services (AWS) vs partial EU providers, or lock-in vs indipendence. I think the problem is elsewhere. The real advantage of big cloud players isn&

The irony is that EU education is still broader and more grounded in fundamentals, compared to US one that has become increasingly skills-oriented. I also prefer to design solutions that are portable and platform independent, cloud provider

If we review the history we can notice that there was always an influence from politics/religion to science, literature, arts, philosophy and the use of them by politics, maybe to justify some decision and state of facts. It helps to e

I think that during ice age it was more easy to travel from Sicily to Malta, maybe they'll be able to find traces of humans even earlier than 8500 years ago. Anyway I think we have a lot to learn from our ancestors, how were they able

Security teams don’t fail by missing bugs. They fail by fixing the wrong ones. Gartner’s EAP category shifts focus from CVE volume to real attack paths across cloud and identity. Most alerts never reach critical assets. EAPs show what actua

I'm glad you find it interesting. I developed the theory at university, studying how ASK and FSK modems work. To build this, you’ll need to understand the Shannon-Hartley theorem, band-pass filtering, Fourier transforms, and convolutio

I never actually used Fidonet. I started on BBS systems just as the internet was becoming affordable, and I made the switch early. However, I apply the concepts of FidoNet almost every day. I often design offline-first devices, where store-

I don’t take concepts as a 'full package'. I evaluate what is worth taking based on the requirements. The brilliant part of FidoNet is the asynchronous persistence. In a 'sea of supercomputers,' a real-time mesh (like Bl
