Elysium is playing out right before our eyes
1. Social media accounts with lots of engagement and high follower counts are worth big money these days. However, it takes a ton of effort to build that up organically. It's not difficult to see possible motives for…
Some spaces just can't be "disrupted."
This was my first thought when I saw "travelers going between countries." You're going to have a problem getting carriers to sign up because they are assuming all of the risk. Unfortunately, "oh you don't understand - I…
Genuinely curious what the [morally] good use cases for Sora would be.
From a technical standpoint, this is pretty cool. From a human standpoint, this feels so unbelievably dystopian.
Thanks! Just grabbed one.
By time I got signed in, I missed the early adopter spots. Any chance you could open up a couple more?
I think the evil part is putting it in the hands of the general public. The ability to create propaganda and deep fakes gives everyone a powerful tool for manipulation. The rich and powerful are going to do whatever the…
You can set that globally but override at the individual entry.
It's been able to run on A series chips for a while. I don't think that's what's preventing MacOS on iPad. It's that the OS is not optimized for touch in any way. Too many small things to click. It's just not the kind…
The commercial was essentially announcing their partnership with Flock
Don't forget about the facial recognition any time you go through a toll booth
Mass unemployment would/will be the catalyst to mass uprising. All of the fuel is in place (ICE, Epstein, rising costs of everything, unaffordable housing, general lack of hope and faith in the government, etc.) High…
If you could write drivers in javascript, it probably would have done just fine /s
I'm a senior engineer and have no degree. I never get offended by people making comments like this. If we're both in similar roles, making quality contributions, and are progressing in our careers, the only difference…
Seems like everything is a hot button topic these days. Even things like movies get connected to a hot button in one way or another.
Couldn't agree more. Squash merges to main ONLY. That way, I don't care if your branch contains 100 commits or 1 commit. I don't need to worry about commit messages like: - fix 1 - fix 2 - dfljfdlkfdj - does it work…
Captcha is only effective at annoying legitimate users. If there is any incentive to do so, bots have no problem bypassing/solving them.
Memorizing CLI commands and typing/editing them over and over can be very time consuming. Use k9s for example. Let's say you want to determine where the value of an environment variable is coming from. 1. 'kubectl get…
Also sends everything you type to Google. Depends on whether you care about that or not.
I see what you're saying but I have to push back. "If one thing I need is going to be down, everything might as well be down." If I have a product with 5 dependencies and one of them is down, there's things I can do to…
The problem is creating a single point of failure. There's no doubt a VM in AWS is exponentially more redundant than my VM running on a couple of Intel NUCs in my closet. The difference is, when I have a major outage,…
+1 Working with ADO pipelines is painful. - Make change locally - Push change - Run pipeline - Wait forever because ADO is slow - Debug the error caused by some syntax issue in their bastardized version of yaml - Repeat
If you have worked with HCL in any serious capacity, you'll be happy they didn't go that route. Here's some fun examples to see why HCL sucks: - Create an if/elseif/else statement - Do anything remotely complex with a…
