Is OData still a thing?

So just engineering? Isn't that predicted effect of AI adoption? :)

It's one click away, have we power users become that lazy?

Have you ever maintained a product popular enough that lots of people try to hack into and abuse? If yes, you should understand the reasons for protective measures like this.

Is it battery-friendly?

Looks like this particular model has some feminine personality traits...

Oh, wait, it has personality traits! This little fun experiment was worth it. :)

Maybe we don't need to value virality so much.

The point is to use dumb cheap blob storage instead of CPU-consuming server someone has to manage.

Not so great if you're talking about real use cases where moderation is mandatory.

> they have to crack down on some 3rd party apps we all took for granted and kill a few apps off

I believe they aim for selling API access to AI companies, for (re)training data. Third party apps are just taking collateral damage.

>Isn't that like THE CORE component of the devices job?

Chances are it's so core that some buggy LZMA or something implementation was offloaded to ASIC.

> How Windows allows...

It's either that or iOS-type walled garden, which one you prefer?

By the way, Windows even has the lock-down switch, it's just off by (a sane) default.

Also, blaming OS for not protecting from random app exploits isn't fair.

No affiliation, I just use both and compare.

After almost a year since last stable.

Companion article on how they have fact-checked all this:

Undetectable watermarks could be quite useful for AI vendors, to track usage of their product. Potentially even track individual users.

From the linked technical report:

The oldest traces of infection that we discovered happened in 2019. As of the time of writing in June 2023, the attack is ongoing, and the most recent version of the devices successfully targeted is iOS 15.7.

To be frank, MSI's "crap" provides battery life optimized charging, while Windows doesn't (and probably can't).

After checking the docs, you are right, I stand corrected. I was pretty sure Oracle and DB2 don't.

Modern DB engines can enforce Unique or PK constraints without indexes. Yes, they perform scans.

Politicians are just ambitious people, sharing full spectrum of other traits. Most people would become equally corrupt if presented the opportunity. Being ambitious just amplifies the temptation.

Isn't it a good default for that user's privacy?

> exploits multiple processors and multiple cores to the hilt when compressing data

As s side note, this isn't always desirable for this class of coders. In some scenarios (like web server) you might want to favor throughput over response time.

Dark Reader extension tries to solve this problem. It's primary use case is adding dark mode support, but it can help with contrast too.

Looks like the new legal framework puts everyone at the mercy of CCB, a government body. Hope they have enough incentives and processes to do the right thing with all those 0-days that will flow to them.

Otherwise, this could undermine the public disclosure concept itself, a mechanism to force a stubborn vendor to fix their vulnerabilities.

>I doubt murder rates would change were it not illegal. Most people don't want to kill

Most people wouldn't kill, but the rest would kill enough for rates to change.

>When von Ahn saw what it was capable of, he scrapped the two programs involving human teachers. “It took me approximately one minute,” he told me later.

If someone has been waiting for the moment when AI start take human jobs, this is it. And I have mixed feeling about it.

This is really cool, but...

Allowing third-party JavaScript execution on the client is a bold move. They better have both user- and admin-accessible way to disable this.

>Finally, why don’t some housekeeping utilities recognise clones? That’s because there’s no official way to tell them apart.

Is it intentional?

It's wrong comparison. Flipping all switches in a room doesn't get you much added value beyond what's necessary.
