You are severely overestimating the average person's ability and understanding.

Relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/2501/

More likely: "You worked overtime to save systems across the planet from crashing due to a potentially botched update?"

"Yes, sir. We're 'Site Reliability Engineering', after all."

"And nothing has changed. Updates are a smooth as usual."

"Yes, sir. Site Reliability Engineering, at its finest, sir!"

"You're fired."

Combined with this, presented as a change they could potentially make, it's a killer:

> Implement a staggered deployment strategy for Rapid Response Content in which updates are gradually deployed to larger portions of the sensor base, starting with a canary deployment.

They weren't doing any test deployments at all before blasting the world with an update? Reckless.

You have to assume that it does.

Airplane manufacturers' customers are the airlines.

This article definitely wins my award for the most unnecessary scrolljacking -- the animations add no value, are too short, and only serve to delay being to read further in the article.

It's often not the tech itself but rather the implementation. Enterprise dev is notorious for a reason.

Well there's a line that the sales folks at Microsoft will bring out early & everywhere

The two doctors I regularly saw - my primary care doctor and the one I used when she wasn't available - both left One Medical right after Amazon purchased them. Since then, it's impossible to get an MD appointment, but a flood of new physician assistants will happily see you.

I'm at an age where if I'm going to the doctor, I want a doctor. That's harder to come by.

Costs 8x as much annually and doesn't take insurance?

That's not a real option unfortunately.

As opposed to most Americans, at least those that have been in the industry for a decade or more, who would rather be as far from tech as possible, in whatever direction.

OneMedical customer since well before the acquisition -- the enshittification continues.

Competitor services costing muliples of what OneMedical does keeps me in place for now; that, and getting an appointment and the experience of that appointment at a "normal" doctor's office is still the same as it's always been: scheduling is a massive PITA, and you're lucky if they aren't running at least 30 minutes behind by lunchtime.

That's super common in the US and not just for hedge funds, it's practically everywhere.

Mortuaries?

Talk to your doctor, be honest about your sexual history and current situation. It made sense for me to get the vaccine, but may not make sense for all, or at least not make sense enough to be approved by your insurance.

If it were exactly the same size it could still be silly for city life, depending on the city, the neighborhood, etc. Because it awkwardly sticks out in parking lots? Because you like how it makes you feel, and even better how it makes others feel? That's silly.

Because it's impossible to find parallel street parking (and take up 2-3 spaces when you do) and makes it much easier to hit unseen pedestrians in crowded areas and older layouts with tight corners? Because you need it for work? Not at all silly.

The gap in the Linkedin history says yes, and how cagey OP is being with what they did (there was definitely physical violence involved, just not battery), I suspect they would absolutely mention it if they weren't convicted.

Nah, if it's already reverted, they're good to go. A post-mortem with how something like that got through will definitely be on the table though.

> So they likely don't really care anymore.

I don't think that's possible.

Spammers haven't, that's for damn sure

Dr. Gabor Mate¹ should be taken with large grains of salt when it comes to ADHD and related conditions. There is a lack of published research or dedicated expertise on the matter; Dr. Russell Barkley, a leading ADHD expert and researcher², has a good video on the subject³.

> Title II regulation isn't just about net neutrality, Rosenworcel said, arguing that the reclassification will give the FCC more authority to protect national security on broadband networks. "When we stripped state-affiliated companies from China of their authority to operate in the United States, that action did not extend to broadband services, thanks to the retreat from Title II. This is a national security loophole that needs to be addressed," she said.

I know I'm far too cynical these days, but this smells like the beginning of the Great American Firewall.

When a human reads a bunch of stuff on the internet and regurgitates it as fact, we don't say they hallucinate, we say that they're wrong.

Why we baby AI on this front, I have no idea.

I have the same lock, with basically the same underlying rules: any automation should fail towards the old, "dumb", way. I automate light switches more than outlets, and most other things send control commands to those switches. The thermostat is added as well but works just as well as a walk-up-and-change-it touchscreen.

The other rule is that no cloud service ever be necessary. I want heat & lights, even if the internet is out.

This isn't news, it's a press release, complete with CEO glamour shot.

I get breathing rate info through my Apple Watch, seems only to be when sleeping though.

That Starfield launched with https://starfieldwiki.net/ from the same people that have been running the (blessedly old school) Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages (UESP)* has been amazing -- being able to avoid Fandom is a top 10 feature of any game for me at this point.
