windows update just doing a normal write causing the active chunk of flash memory being used to hold something in the boot loader to a different failed/failing section

PSU (Oregon) uses C++ as just "c with classes" and ignores the rest of C++ for intro to programming courses. It frustrates people who already use C++ but otherwise works pretty well.

What issues on Linux would this actually solve?

If you bought something from a physical store and lose it doesn't entitle you to go get another one for free...

I wonder if we'll ever get truly round objects in my lifetime though

The (a?) problem is that only the largest / most profitable players can afford to implement these systems. So while well intentioned they just shut out any company/service without loads of extra cash

I work in an org with 8ish FTEs, a handful of student workers, and like 200 volunteers. Almost every service wants $5 or more per user per month, that's $1,140 per month per service. We selfhost open source solutions for everything we can and sometimes have to write something in-house to meet our needs.

"re"-writable

Why?

You get a lot more detailed information out of a CT scan

More like selling when and where you got on and off the bus

Wireguard doesn't do most of those either

The banners themselves are ugly and can fill almost half the screen

Even website makers who don't use predatory tracking end up including them as a CYA tactic

> Page loads, immediately when I start scrolling and reading a popup trying to get tracking consent

It was with the best of intentions but cookie banners have done more to hurt web browsing than anything else in the last decade

Mass firings

> In other news, I do think desk makers should start incorporating the USB dock inside the top board of a desk. People go through a lot of money and bullshit to keep their setup clean, especially those who swap computers

Will be obsolete in 5 years every time

Sort of by definition it is normal

> Feels like there's otherwise a hundred different ways to already do remote control without any extra hardware

This way the worker doesn't have to know 100 different ways to remote into the machine, just one

> I guess it could be handy for an application where you know it won't scale and you just want a simple, one-dependency database

That's where we use it at my work. We have host/networking deployment pipelines that used to have up to one minute latency on each step because each was ran on a one-minute cron. A short python script/service that handled the LISTENing + adding NOTIFYs when the next step was ready removed the latency and we'll never do enough for the load on the db to matter

ZFS isn't more effected by those, your just more likely to notice them with ZFS. You'll probably never notice write endurance issues on a home NAS

Until Dec 24th of last year this groups was called "Robert Crumb Fans" and had lots of organic content. Facebook has no good way to report that this group was sold or otherwise transformed from it's original purpose into an ad mill with laundered membership. Facebook reports on the group are ignored, and emails to abuse@fb.com ignored.

Hoping somebody with some pull can actually get this looked at by a real human and hopefully shut the group down.

Task that requires precision and potentially hard to audit? Exactly where I'd use an LLM /s

I'm pretty pessimistic about AI in general, but the quality of web query results has gone done so much I've resorted to asking an AI to get the short answer or the starting point that Google would have given me just a few years ago...

"Mystery meat navigation" has become standard

ZFS can send to file or whatever you want to pipe to, you can have incremental sends, and if you convert to bookmarks on the sender you don't have to keep the historical data after you send it

Syncthing is the only way I've ever corrupted a git repo before

He really let fame go to his head...

Even as someone who lives with transparent terminals and poor color schemes the article is _very_ hard to read though. It's not a shallow remark when the formatting completely distracts/detracts from the rest of article.

Are there existing tools that model security stuff like this? For a few years I've wanted to build a model like this and search for vulnerabilities using something like GOAP (Goal-Oriented Action Planning)
