I'm sick of you fragile cunts. Please delete this account.

Well, if the Roomba could exchange genetic information with the surrounding population and adapting to a changing environment would give the appearance of intelligence and design.

“Health equity” could be claiming new victims. More than 10 million nonblack Americans with chronic kidney disease may have seen their treatments or transplants delayed because of policy changes enacted after 2020’s “racial reckoning.” Some of those patients now face greater risk of death because national transplant organizations have embraced racial activism.

Bjarne Stroustrup: Remember the Vasa! (2018) https://open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2018/p0977r0...

Bjarne Stroustrup 2018: We are on a path to disaster though enthusiasm and design-by-committee (or rather “design-by-committees”). During the early days of WG21 the story of the Vasa was popular as warning against overelaboration (from 1992):

“Please also understand that there are dozens of reasonable extensions and changes being proposed. If every extension that is reasonably well-defined, clean and general, and would make life easier for a couple of hundred or couple of thousand C++ programmers were accepted, the language would more than double in size. We do not think this would be an advantage to the C++ community.”

“We often remind ourselves of the good ship Vasa. It was to be the pride of the Swedish navy and was built to be the biggest and most beautiful battleship ever. Unfortunately, to accommodate enough statues and guns it underwent major redesigns and extension during construction. The result was that it only made it half way across Stockholm harbor before a gust of wind blew it over and it sank killing about 50 people.”

“It has been raised and you can now see it in a museum in Stockholm. It is a beauty to behold - far more beautiful at the time than its unextended first design and far more beautiful today than if it had suffered the usual fate of a 17th century battle ship -- but that is no consolation to its designer, builders, and intended users.”

> .. It doesnt stop anyone selling the device ..

I'm sorry but the text says otherwise ..

“Once you unlock the device, you can only use it for your personal use, and may not sell or otherwise transfer the device.”

“We must make our software infrastructure more secure against the rise in cyberattacks (such as on power grids, hospitals, and banks)”

How about not connecting your critical infrastructure directly to the Internet.

> This report is a joke.

> No root cause. On other forums it is understood they were running very old and unpatched VMware os. Which is simply embarrassing and everybody within their IT team should be fired immediately for gross negligence.

> They can't inform people whos data has been compromised because they refuse to pay the ransom and have no other way to tell what was stolen. Farcical.

> Their ability to rebuild in a timely manner was hampered by not having any spare servers and presumably because all their server hardware was compromised and couldnt be used for restore.

Google on Thomas Sowell and race hustlers.

I don't expend any time thinking about race or “lived experience”. Both are irreverent to how one is going to advance ones prospects in this world.
