Why does it have to be a CEO? You can always send somebody lower down, who actually knows their stuff. Requiring it to be the CEO is just dumb status games.

The problem is that nobody really does that? Like, as far as I'm aware, even simple stuff such as not considering tokens that would result in a syntax error when writing code isn't…

Incredible how Adafruit-sided this discussion is, having seen ptorrone serially creating alt accounts fediverse to harrass people who thought that his behavior was bad [1], going a…

That's not strictly correct, it's rather that the current encoder does no inter-frame compression. Patches (and the frame system in general) does give tools to do some inter-frame …

This is quite exactly the opposite of TCM in fact

Don't ever mention PD 1.0, it's a cursed standard that was never actually used and that nobody should ever use. USB PD started with PD 2.0, and we shall never speak of the stillbor…

Sun is continuously running a very nice distillation cycle the size of the world that makes fairly clean water just fall out of the sky. It's only a question of where does it fall,…

Youtube has been long normalizing videos standard feed, switching to a -14 LUFS target in 2019. But LUFS is a global target, and is meant to allow higher peaks and troughs over the…

Companies that build themselves on selling open source software put themselves in the position where anyone else can copy them and compete with them on price, and price alone. This…

Hey, you now have a specific cost to point to when arguing for/against solutions that have this problem. "each deployment will cost us at least 12 specialist hours per year just re…

It's because S3 api is quite a fair bit worse than what they offer. They define their guarantees for storage products way more clearly than other clouds, and for blob storage, from…

So why not bring your better negotiation abilities to your peers? Collectively the bargaining power is way larger, and as such the upside as well.

Source code license doesn't matter, Mozilla did this with Debian, that's why Iceweasel was a thing.

It cannot route HDMI, partly because HDMI is built upon antiquated principles and doesn't really fit besides more modern protocol designs. USB4 would need to get entirely redesigne…

Host-to-host connections over USB4 (which is Thunderbolt without Intel's marketing) actually just have a packet interface over which you can pass IP, no need for Ethernet emulation…

> Quite a disciplined policy by the stewards of the website. How does the enforcement work against say, overtagging? Tags are used as negative signal, rather than positive (as in, …

From my experience it's a lot easier to learn another language than to learn a new model of operation or new concepts entirely. And if you'll want to work with Godot, that will lik…

Because people make money using it.

Considering how few people do so, I'm fairly certain it would take more than a month for somebody to catch that. But I guess it's also fairly easy to test it: just serve a slightly…

If the proxy changes a new version of a package, when you update it, there's no way to detect it since it fetches through the cache anyways, so a poisoned sum will be added to sumd…

FWIW it's a bit of a different game with TPMs than with secure elements in general - imagine how much would it cost a bank in credit card replacement costs if the firmware on them …
