This is absolutely insane to me. Native HTML5 gives so much power and it seems like front end devs love to jargon and buzzword the next big thing to death every other year. I primarily work in networking and if we added the layers of complexity like I see front end work does we would have SDN configuring an internal PtP VPN for every device on a LAN just because it's the hot new tech.

Yes.

As the case is with so many things, the answer is it depends. https://www.findlaw.com/injury/torts-and-personal-injuries/d...

What about with Safari?

I think erring on the side of needing warrants for law enforcement can help with some of the incidental vs targeted surveillance debate. Law enforcement driving past while on regular patrol and noticing something vs spending time and resources to launch a drone, fly a plane, or stake out a property for surveillance has a distinction that feels neat enough for a court to rule on.

I believe a test that would pass muster could be a "passer-by" test. If a person, unaided by technology, can from a public property, see something in or on the property, while passing by at a walking pace, no warrant is needed. Anything further should require a warrant.

I don't think your assumption is correct based on this sentence: "I also want to take this moment to clearly state that Evan Koblentz, the director of the Vintage Computer Federation for many years, who took the original donation, had absolutely no say or part in this pulping of historical magazines, having been driven out of the organization years before."

Emphasis mine.

Imagine a company buying a small utility for the cost of a Corvette from an Indy developer today... More likely they would just poach the utility from open source and not return anything.

Elders have complained about the impetus of youth for longer than the boomers.

"The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint ... As for the girls, they are forward, immodest and unladylike in speech, behaviour and dress." - Peter the Hermit, 1274

In my opinion, "journalism for journalism's sake" would be what we call reporting the truth, or investigative journalism. Is there a national outlet that invests in pure investigative journalism anymore?

No, there have been only a couple of managers that had significant problems with their implementations. Usually it's a closed source manager that has the undisclosed implementation issues that get exploited.

I swear we are getting too damn smart for our own good. What's wrong with a 205 Reset Content error code? Or a 503 Service Unavailable code? Yes, some users will bounce and never come back to check your page, but who cares if you are getting 1000x or 10000x the baseline visitors.

Youtube will say "Oh, we can't pick and choose because then unscrupulous channels will tag their garbage videos as CPR and not get ads, or the search quality will go down."

This is utter BS, because we know they have the tools to boost or suppress individual channels, so YT needs to vet existing channels, and flag them as ad free or important for search. A channel and video that comes to mind is the Red Cross' CPR instructional video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eRwgM2Pa4o

It's definitely not a matte screen, but a coating that cuts the worst of the glare. Kind of like a decent phone screen. Of course, I just wanted the storage, and then I put a glass screen protector on right away, making the glare even worse...

Here is a blog post that shows the differences most realistically to my perception of it.

Very slight changes in the transistor junctions will make them slightly more resistive, more inductive, physical variance will make them narrower, wider, etc. All of these factors, although extremely slight, will add up to different response curves of switching time vs current vs voltage.

This paper is quite interesting to frame some of the announcements of the architecture of Intel's recent Sapphire Rapids launch. Intel has moved strongly into accelerators, HBM, and improving interconnects. This has the result of shrinking a whole system to a CPU, but also allowing scaling of many CPUs together.

I'm glad that you brought up agricultural indentured servitude. I live in the midwest US, and I feel that the migrant workers that we hear so many bad things about are just picking the individually optimal outcome, and if we wanted to see fundamental change we need to punish the companies that exploit these workers for rock bottom wages.

I just signed up for this to try for a couple of weeks. I was always interested in doing a project like Jeff Geerlings Pi based metrics dashboard, but never took the time to set it up. This is an interesting, but paid, alternative to that.

The writer of the poem, or short story, when you beat the ender dragon in Minecraft, never signed the contract releasing his copyright on it. That means Microsoft doesn't actually own the ending to Minecraft.

We like to complain and not read the about page.

"This map displays where Internet services are available across the United States, as reported by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to the FCC. The map will be updated continuously to improve its accuracy through a combination of FCC verification efforts, new data from Internet providers, updates to the location data, and—importantly—information from the public."

Not really, up until the past year or so, the cable ISPs would count an area serviced if they could get one house per zip code. I think this is stricter now, but these maps will help keep them accountable if we update and flag incorrect listings.

If I am remembering correctly, that is one of the goals of this map. Providers were lying or misrepresenting the serviced areas, and now the end user can challenge them on the service they say they are providing.

They just lowered the cost of the cloud features and added more to the free tier. As someone who struggles with focus, the exact negative you cite is a positive to me. Reading a PDF and marking it right on the device, or reading a physical document and taking notes is great. It is also very nice for me during meetings and conferences. I find that my recollection is better by writing than by typing, with a much more "in the moment" focus.

Mac Mini has no option for 32GB of RAM, and with 512GB of SSD storage is $899. How is that similar in price to $599?

If the ethernet port doesn't support multigigabit Ethernet, that is a shame. WiFi 6 is great, but we need more development, deployment, and support of multigigabit ethernet for corporate and enterprise customers!

One thing that should be standard by now is for addresses in the USA or other countries that have ZIP or Postal codes per municipality or area, the zip/postal should be entered first and auto fill the city if it is unique. There should be very few times where "USA, 20755" doesn't give the correct location.

That doesn't seem like a solution, but a work-around. I'm sure it works fine, but why should that extra step be necessary?

I am of the same thought. But I was gifted a Kindle so I am enjoying it besides. I have used Calibre to side load many of me pre-existing books and it works well.

It's more like sand blasting, but with dry ice instead of sand. This has been used for paint prep in industry and automotive for some time now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry-ice_blasting
