Why? Because every line shared becomes collective momentum that accelerates the journey.
Truly admireable on their part and a great paradigm for others. Reasons for this doesn't really matter to me but I can't help but wonder if somehow they were obliged or otherwise indebted to follow this route.
Sources for this? Deserves it's own post if data are there to back it up
This is completely coherent with their privacy-first strategy
You mean .. with their said privacy-first strategy
I bet there's plenty of other non-AI tracks you wouldn't pay to listen to
.. Sundar is announcing that DeepMind and the Brain team from Google Research will be joining forces as a single, focused unit called Google DeepMind
This would be enough as an anouncement, rest of it is just sugar coating.
~$ firefox -v
Mozilla Firefox 102.5.0esr
what? can you be more specific? I'm using debian as my daily desktop and firefox and I've never ever had issues with anything, especially the web browser. I'm also staying away from fancy new things like snap. I've always managed to get everything I wanted either using apt or dpkg.
Can you please give an example of an application you needed available only as a snap?
Why do I need Docker for such a simple task? From their blog:
The proxy is extremely lightweight. An inexpensive and tiny VPS can easily handle hundreds of concurrent users. Here’s how to make it work:
SSH into the server.
Install Docker, Docker Compose, and git:
Maybe I'm too romantic, but I'd like to see an american GDPR (not saying that the eu name or the bill itself is better), and then an Asian and so on till we have one global GDPR protecting all consumer data.

I can confirm sdf.org doesn't exist using Firefox but shows ok with Chromium.
On my debian pc. Probably a firefox bug? Oh, wait.. The second time I tried sdf.org it showed up correctly, so I'm guessing it's a temporary DNS name resolution where it fails on the first attempt.. Doesn't make sense!
Most commenters think of this as an honest/dishonest situation on behalf of the agency. A different approach (and the one I'm reading it as) is that 'Isaac' operates as a seller that likes to make 100k per customer or project in any given time.
Not committing to each project, or actually listening, when the customer complains Isaac makes a few adjustments and continues business as usual.
He only cares about that 100k in a few month's time for a project. So now that he got only half of it he probably thinks he did the client a favor.
EDIT: the product is a life-saver for servers, kudos to the developer(s)
He wholeheartedly apologises to Maree if she was offended by what he did and urges her to contact him privately so he can personally apologise.
If she requests him to take down the video he will do that.
The video should've been taken down already.
got a 404 error for the linux link: http://nethack.org/v360/ports/download-linux.html
sudo apt install nethackCompletely off-topic, but the first thing that came to mind reading this title was Microsoft. I dare say that this one company is dragging all humanity behind in technological progress. You can't imagine how many people take hours performing simple tasks that should not last more than a few minutes. I see it every day: "Office" applications, new but slow [asf] laptops and many others. Those machines are supposed to get things done, but instead they end up being an excuse for miserable people.
I hate talking politics but it angers me so much I just can't get over it. The money-capital system supposed to drive innovation is exploited by big corp just to make more money, dominate markets, or just make people feel safe doing almost absolutely nothing wasting time and getting payed for it.
A sad world.
"Cautious feminist" describes himself as:
But it is unlikely that women will have an achieved equality with men. Cautious feminists such as myself realize that things go slowly and that a brief hundred years will not wipe out the effects on women of 30,000 years of slavery.
He's definitely on point 100 years later.

Everyone should be reminded of Frances Haugen's testimony. Two months after, it's like everyone has forgotten so a Facebook exec can blame it on society.
"Services have been restored and we are investigating the underlying cause. No mail has been lost. Thanks for your patience."
This was 3 hours ago, but I can't connect to the server. I'm receiving emails though.
Some of my business customers pay for 50/50mbps fiber to the building (dedicated) line for 500€/month. 100/100mbps costs about 800/month.
Residential broadband excluding Athens is mostly down to 50/5mbps and in many suburbs in cities (e.g. Khania, Crete) don't even get more than 1mbps upload.
Yet we have politicians and commercials all day showing how '5G' will change our lives. It's a joke.
Forgive my ignorance, but if bitcoin's blockchain is a 'public ledger', how safe is for the attackers to keep anonymity when they got paid $4.5M in bitcoin?
100% of our customers would not accept the costs of strictly follow this requirements.
This seems to apply in pre-GDPR codebases which I'm not sure this guide has taken into account. It probably is a lot less costly to architect an application from scratch, therefore easier to justify to a customer.
How is your comment helping reply the OP's questions?
TL;DR: You're afraid. A great read!
Not to mention this thing kept installing itself even when I uninstalled it for the 5th time! I gave up!
what is CoW?
oh wow I had no idea about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_of_Wikipedia_in_Turkey
Even though we do not pass the telemetry build flags (and go out of our way to cripple the baked-in telemetry), Microsoft will still track usage by default. After installing VSCodium, you must manually disable telemetry in your settings file to stop it from sending tracking data to Microsoft.
The instructions here and here help with disabling telemetry.
try re-reading this with "all" in bold
Ironically, a guy named Tim Berners-Lee at Cern had developed something he called WorldWideWeb on NeXT machines. I was trying to figure out what it was good for. It was kind of like Microsoft Word, except some sentences were blue and underlined and if you clicked on them you got a new document that came from a different computer.
Steve asked intensely the first time he saw it, “Is this cool?” I think that was his way of saying he didn’t get what it’s good for. I said I wasn’t sure.
To my eyes Miki is reading someone else's opinions. Happens a lot lately. It looks like he is being used every time he steps up publicly regarding national matters. IMHO.
