I think this is a pretty common goal. This video is a bit pessimistic, but it shows a lot of evidence that many tech billionaires are aspiring to that end. Most notably Peter Thiel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RpPTRcz1no

The use case for more is managing the history of it in a specific way to make it easier to understand. Most applications don't need this level of management since most applications don't have lives depending on them

I am also learning about the linux kernel, but not in an embedded context. Here are some good resources I have found. https://man7.org/tlpi/ This book is considered the best overview of linux kernel interface. Its old,

Expanding on your first criteria. The technology stack is fundamentally wrong is a good reason for a re-write. Language too slow. Doesn't handle the workload well. Other stacks have a better ecosystem. Re-writes are also needed when th

Conspiracies aside, there are a lot of reasons for this. Reducing liabilities. Responding to complaints. The "Shiny new thing" effect reducing over time. This is going to be the biggest problem with general AI chat systems in the

Apple products communicate with each other even if they don't know each other, so an airtag will utilize the cellular of a nearby iphone in order to get information to apple's servers. I think google has a tracker that does someth

Subpoenas are for criminal cases. It looks like this was a civil matter. A better comparison would be the Twitter user that was tweeting Elon Musk's jet flights. This was before twitter was purchased, and Elon Musk was not able to get

For the most part, ML doesn't control high-risk things with a human in the loop. The worst cases for ML so far have been stock market crashes from algo trading. Its entirely possible that an update to self-driving car's algorithms

Japan is a fascinating case. It's GDP is stable despite a shrinking population. Is it only staying stable because of the population change? If western countries with a similar birth rate problem stopped immigration, would western count

I don't think its possible for any platform that allows for arbitrary code execution to be completely safe. The exploits of today are far more sophisticated than they needed to be 20 years ago, but they still exists and are harder to f

I think there are a lot of frameworks on the edge of viability, but the bar is a lot higher than it used to be for front end tooling. React(70%), Angular(25%), and a little bit of Vue.js(5%) is the market for front end positions with React

I find that any IDE-type setup in vim causes vim to lose the most important thing, speed. If your movements slow down because of too many plugins, the experience is far worse than in a normal non-modal IDE.

Why not do num1.add(num2)? Or str1.append(str2)? Like with many things in C++, its another grenade, but when used appropriately is pretty great

Its not really well known what is the motivation for witholding funds, but in some cases, it has been shared that is stuff around AML and people have extrapolated. Conventional payment processors like Wells Fargo, BoA, and others do the pap

This is a regulatory problem not a business problem. Payment processors need to understand a client's risk profile and what business they do in order to prevent money laundering, and in practice, regulators only care about clients that

I don't see any antidote to the effects of AI on society except regulation. This is a good first step forward, but it needs to go further.

Why not keep the package separate? I also thought of reflect-metadata separately, and it doesn't hurt to allow users to install plugins to augment core compiler behavior. Some people have very tight constraints for payload size, and ty

As controversial as this might be, this type of regulation is going to be needed in the future. AI brings a lot of power and responsibility

Just find a basic CSS library and use server side templating in whatever your preferred language is. As systems evolve, they always get more complex. Web front ends are evolving to keep up with users, app archetypes, and business needs. Peo

I don't think its intentional. I think it's a side effect of using a listener pattern. If you use a listener, useEffect in react, to load data, it will start the request, track it is loading with a boolean, and then store the payl
