The problem is not so much the health risk but the overwhelming of healthcare systems and lack of supplies. This isn't a theory, we already know the outcome of not slowing down infection rates fast enough (China, Italy, etc).

I hope they were free, those things are way more expensive than an effective HEPA filter system.

Projects like this never seem to pan out. It solves a problem people should care about but most aren't motivated to act on.

Ads, baby. Everything you do online is for sale.

A simpler explanation is that some people will just "learn" (via googling) the basic SQL they need to get something done. This is not uncommon across all domains in our industry.

The only use for cracking Xbox One would be to enable piracy

That's not strictly true, cracking could also allow alternative os loading.

Could also be an issue with speaker placement. Most flat panel TVs have a speaker pointing down or backwards at the wall due to small bezel flat screen design.

Just a mistake, should be 2048.

Yes, this developer has 100s of libraries most of which are just code snippets. That was part of the criticism here, it looks like this guy is trying to take advantage of jr devs without providing any real value.

They fired the gun. Linux had to rework the FAT32 implementation in the kernel when TomTom got sued for not paying the Microsoft tax and lost.

Interesting move trying to push snake-oil in a room full of SMEs.

I had a similar question: can't these regulations be generalized? Or are we going to have these same problems in 10 years with a company other than Facebook?

PXE booting Linux live media is fairly straight-forward. Grub/syslinux syntax translates pretty easily to iPxe (which is simply a different type of bootloader). You just provide a kernel,a ramdisk, and whatever kernel arguments you need. If you're trying to roll your own ramdisk environment from scratch you may run into trouble but in general network booting Linux isn't any trickier than making a bootable iso.

Yep this behavior has been normalized by our industry, much to the embarrassment of everyone involved. Move fast and break (other people's) things?

Is there a name for this type of reasoning? An extreme version is that sweat shops are more beneficial then letting kids starve to death.

Can we try and improve the situation for low wage workers as well as additional methods to address unemployment?

Yep, also most of us don't need access to everything simultaneously. I rotate subscriptions and typically only have one streaming service active at a time.

That was their adaptation to Google's rules. Initially answers were behind a paywall.

I don't think they're killing Chrome OS, Chromebooks seem to be as popular as ever with schools. Schools that can afford to buy Pixels probably would go for iPads instead, though. I doubt there is much of a market for high end Chrome OS hardware.

That is a pretty big leap from just a single statement.

I've noticed the same problem and I'm not in the medical profession. Many people don't have good judgement when given direct 24/7 phone access.

Yeah, that's mentioned in the linked article as one of the common misconceptions.

It's it just happenstance this reaches the front page along with the Oracle v Google blog post?

Probably a nitpick but wimlib isn't a port. It's a separate implementation based on reverse engineering the Windows tools and format.

It's unlikely you'll have a noticeable difference in co2 levels with indoor plants, even considering your unusual setup.

Of course he was marked as suspicious: he previously tried to get a suspicious person to sponsor him. :)

Oracle are the good guys in this scenario?

Can't find any details on this, the details provided don't paint a clear picture. Best I can guess is they are referring to implementations that support virtual kvm access: Gain control of ipmi user, issue power cycle command, use virtual kvm to take control of system on reboot.

It is a moderate stimulant, right? So it should provide a small boost even if you're not sleep deprived.

The showroom isn't so much a problem as the high-pressure sales tactics and negotiations that comes with it. The laws in most US states protect this model. Ford can't typically setup a retail store where you just test drive a car and the pricing is transparent and obvious, they have to sell through dealerships (franchise). Obviously franchise owners have different motivations than the manufacturer, they make a commission and need to get as much as possible with each sale.

Mozilla's in a weird spot. I understand they need to be profitable but springing these types of "experiments" on users is eroding trust and is damaging long-term. There's got to be a better way to manage these changes so that it doesn't feel like adware is being surreptitiously injected into your web browser.

The Wikipedia method of getting in your face begging for money seems unpleasant as well but at least that doesn't leave you questioning their motives and judgement.

Thanks, that is what I was missing. It makes sense that Edge would be preferred on Win 10 touchscreen devices.
