Ah, indeed:

Today, more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers. This helps our engineers do more and move faster.

Sounds like bs to me, comes across as marketing talk to promote their AI offerings.

That’s the intention behind that back to work decision.

Why do you assume the West? China often expands to other Asian countries. Or pretend to. E.g. after tariffs are applied to China you’ll often see a huge increase in intra Asia trade. Followed by different Asian countries heavily increasing their exports. Usually by hiding the true origin (tariffs are applied to the origin, not some transhipment place).

Have you had CPR training? What you stated isn’t true. Every second counts. But looking up instructions and seeing a easy video will still help massively.

im qualified enough to know better

Maybe if you make YouTube videos you’d achieve that.

Regarding experts, there’s so many topics where experts are ignored.

oh you watch videos and it’s hard to concentrate after a while? Welcome to actual driving jobs

Watching videos is comparable to e.g. ATC work. I don’t see driving as comparable. In one you’re actively doing something. In the others you’re only checking for stuff that might go wrong but usually goes ok.

There’s a significant difference in ATC vs the training AI: in ATC work people are swapped out after a few hours and they have regular breaks. While here for that AI the company is pretending it can be done for an 8 hour shift.

I have no doubt that we will likewise see the mental and physical effort of driving as well as the danger of it become as unconscionable as threshing or machine operator work is to us now.

Meh, that’s been said for ages. Currently the reliability of automated driving is often crazily overestimated. Human driving is pretty reliable, especially on highways.

Change for the better is good. But just because there’s a computer involved doesn’t mean it’s already better or that’ll be foolproof.

There are different type of smoke alarms. Some detect smoke. There are two ways of doing that. Near a kitchen area it’s usually best to get a completely different one that just uses changes in temperature. Though they will only notify you way matter. So highly recommend keeping the existing one and moving that one somewhere else.

That said, the amount of troubleshooting and wasted time that it took to figure out that the CPU was responsible for months of random crashes

I went through something similar, so I understand.

My (AMD) CPU was defective. But if was only noticeable that it would never be able to wake up from suspend. I didn’t really notice crashes. Just broken suspend. I thought it was a Linux kernel bug, though couldn’t figure out any details. Only after almost a year of pain (no suspend) the CPU just didn’t boot at all anymore.

It was sort of replaced under warranty by the store. They took ages to investigate, then gave a store gift card. Likely because the CPU was temporarily out of stock. I had to wait for the CPU to be in stock to be able to buy it again. Fortunately still had the previous AM4 CPU.

The new CPU suspends without any issues. Took months to be able to not doubt suspend. E.g. if it was suspended I usually thought it had crashed.

An unreliable CPU is a terrible experience.

Renewables are cheaper than coal. And the replacement wasn’t limited to gas and coal. There are articles which explained that there wasn’t a massive increase in e.g. coal usage.

The CNN article article also briefly puts a high figure for coal on energy, which could lead to confusion.

A lot of that research isn’t done by these companies. Further, their marketing budget is often huge, the research budget is often lower than that.

So instead of accepting that the driver should be GPL and part of the kernel, you turn things around and pretend the development of the kernel is the way that it is because of a conspiracy against Nvidia?

The bit regarding Wayland doesn’t make sense, no idea what you’re getting at. Though maybe you don’t follow Linux developments?

That’s news to me considering the EPA-rated fuel economy of vehicles with both hybrid and pure ICE drivetrains is universally higher for the hybrid versions.

Because they make certain assumptions. Fortunately the EU mandated that cars measures those things since various years. That caused a review of those hybrids. They’re usually not charged.

Yet you back up your claim with nothingness. Not quite sure how living in a country makes you an expert on regulations. Why didn’t you add substance? The compliance department in the companies I worked for wouldn’t be experts btw.

You don’t know the Ape? It’s really everywhere in Europe.

I haven’t seen those in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany except maybe once in 5 years. Further, it’s seems not comparable. In Netherlands it likely wouldn’t be considered a car. It likely would fall under the max 45 kmh regulations.

In the EU any bank requires customers to use 2FA. Dutch customs requires critical logistics companies to use 2FA (amongst other stuff).

From what I recall critical companies must address likely methods to breach their security. It is highly likely that a company will get loads of attempts to check. Similarly, a critical company is expected to deal with employees leaving and ensuring their access is revoked.

From skimming they seem to say that there isn’t a breach because an account of an ex-employee was used. But that’s too easy, the processes sucked. The way they got in is just one of the things that some EU regulation requires critical companies to address. Same for perhaps not forcing customers to use 2FA. That’s crazy.

The EU is usually really slow in regulating things. If they got in using a method that the EU said you had to address then it means you had ages of time and nothing was done.

Really unresponsible. Especially as I think they seem be pretty critical part of the economy.

I highly recommend list-inhibitors. Not sure if this is the one I mean, the command line seems to match to the one I use: https://pypi.org/project/list-session-inhibitors/

This command gives a way nicer output.

For me Firefox often prevents the system from going to idle. If some page has a video it often seems to inhibit going to idle. Firefox strangely does that even if the video is paused.

For me and Firefox I’m often intend to do something about it. And then I don’t for various reasons 😂

My budget is maximum $50

There’s a Dutch weather man who reviews a crazy amount of earbuds as a hobby. They’re all Bluetooth ones though. I found that you get better quality for a similar price if you get a wired one.

Anyway, recommend that you check out https://www.scarbir.com/

He has lists per price range, but also recommendations per usage type. E.g. I bought ones that were less affected by wind noise (during a call).

Before you said that it was specifically addressed. Interesting shift of the goal post.

The picture is about all those red lines Russia had and were broken. Maybe check the picture again instead of making up yet another red line.

That’s not what was stated before.
