The best time to turn off Bluetooth was 15 years ago. The second best time is now.

I don’t know anything about bikes or coffee, but here are my recommendations based on Jeff Geerling:

Sorry for the info-dump but I just went through my list of subscribed channels. That should keep you going for a while!

What types of videos do you watch?

“Lurk for a while before posting,” has been a standard rule of netiquette for at least the 30 years that I’ve been using the 'net.

It’s not like meta is doing a literal holocaust.

He worked there for 12 years and left just over 1 year ago. It has been abundantly apparent what kind of company Facebook/Meta is for a very long time and he has no excuse.

Fuck him.

You’d be insane to still be using this for anything important.

Great, but why would I respect the opinion of someone who works at Meta?

Yes that’s the one I was referring to.

Imagine telling a 1981 programmer who was fitting an entire chess engine into 1KB RAM that 40 years in the future every application will ship with its own 250MB operating system to run in a container orchestrator which is running in a virtual machine.

At least we did something useful with Moore’s Law.

Did the LLM choose the name? There’s an obvious existing semantic link between PRISM and intel, so congrats on choosing an un-searchable name.

Restic has quite a good solution for this: https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/stable/060_forget.html#security-considerations-in-append-only-mode

This is just hype. The marketing hype of these models has focused a huge amount of human effort on looking for vulnerabilities that we could have found before if CTOs could have been convinced that it was worth the time and resource investment to go looking for them.

We now have an industry full of executives who believe they will be the ones held responsible if they don’t quickly respond to this “new threat” and so now the engineers who should have been given the time to address technical debt and look for security issues in their products years ago, actually have the remit from the suits to do so.

Any time one of these snake-oil companies tells you that their model found hundreds of security issues in a project, just realise that what it actually did is spit out thousands of useless pages of nonsense that a team of real engineers had to check, and in checking all of the nonsense they realised that hold on a minute, yes this particular function does have a vulnerability. The AI is just giving us permission to look, by pointing its sixth finger at every other line of code.

And it is safe to say he not exactly sound convinced that Microsoft’s gaming leadership known what it is doing.

Get an editor to proof-read your articles, bro!

Legislatures asleep at the wheel, as usual.

Pick a case: it’s hermits, hismits, theirmits (genitive) or it’s hermits, himmits, themmits (accusative).

You’re perpetuating the industry propaganda. Stop Killing Games didn’t ask for this, and if you watch the hearing, you’ll see that they mention a number of possible approaches while also saying, “we don’t ask for any specific solution, just that consumers’ rights are upheld.”
