In recent years we've also had browser-exploitable vulnerabilities that allowed reading arbitrary memory as a regular user, but slowly or without full control over the locations. I think wiping credentials as soon as…
Manufacturing dispute on non-disputed things is also a common tactic to influence people and create confusion and disorder. For that you don't need to turn the facts on their head, just make the result seem indecisive.
There were decent and reasonably thin layers over that to solve the immediate practical issues (e.g. Delphi, MFC), but they're no longer fashionable and nothing seems to have replaced them in the same space. Maybe we…
I think there's similarity to the dynamic too. Not many instances have the means at this time to produce LLMs from scratch and operate them at scale.
IBM owned literally the whole market on computers at a time when computing equipment was prohibitively expensive and centralised.
At their best they had an exceptional amount of demoscene / game development content overall, as well as several full (usually "previous") versions of various creative software like 3D modeling or photo editing apps.…
Brutalism doesn't signify "brutality" though, it's about leaving the building materials bare and favouring clean lines. Those glass and steel buildings could also be considered brutalist architecture of a different…

It's made a lot of sense in general if you think about the business models around open source products. An extensive test suite gives you the ability to engineer changes effectively and efficiently, meaning that you can…
I've occasionally spent time doing and even fighting for latency optimisations that supposedly don't matter in the great scheme of things, but that resulted in customers leaving positive feedback about how the product…
It's also repeating what the hellscape of inconsistent skinned UIs did in the late 90s and early 2000s. People are looking back at those times with a rather selective memory.
> As an aside, I know tons of experienced "Senior" developers who just suck at their jobs. The problem is they have tons of experience in delivering terrible products based on terrible code and architectural decisions.…
Apple have always preferred preserving letter forms over hinting, so Macs are therefore also "blurry" on lower DPI displays. The reason they aren't these days is because the DPI is higher. Usually when people complain…
I guess in the same sense that every functional aircraft is. Taking everything apart and putting it back together, replacing worn out parts, is considered normal maintenance.
Altered Carbon also.
There was definitely a key combination that would skip the whole thing (out of old memory, alt-x?).
I switched to a new Android phone just weeks ago. Choosing the search engine was part of the onboarding wizard.
It would be pretty strange for experts to recommend doing something that they consider ineffective or harmful.
The expert opinions that I've seen so far have indicated that geoengineering at any scale that we're realistically able to produce on a short notice is unlikely to have a sufficient effect on climate change. Essentially…

Morally, it's pretty significant that we make conscious decisions (as a process that we often see as distinct from the rest of the animal kingdom) to kill and eat thousands of other animals mostly for the sake of taste,…
Used to be that way for me too, but I believe with the latest LTS the slowdowns just went away. I'm using Firefox through the default Snap packaging every day, and it's just fine. This is also with the distro installed…
As far as I know, Servo wasn't ever really intended to be a production browser. But significant parts of Firefox have been rewritten in Rust since, and those parts have included bits from Servo.
Banners are in no way mandated, though. As the quoted text states, you need to have a policy easily available - the same as you'd have any other legal information on your website. Typically it isn't served on banners or…
