    Or we use AI to find bug in those systems. Along with the way to completely disable those.

    Just imagine you would visit such charging station and it would support the fast charge. But only the connector, not the cable.

    Yeah and that's the confusing part. Just imagine saying "Yeah this is german power plug, but it might support just 120V, but the device will negotiate once you plug it in.

    We are lucky we don't need to transfer (so much) data over these. Just imagine looking for Gen 2x2 or Gen 2 SuperSpeed charging station.

    Interesting but that doesn't scratch the itch. I imagine something more like crude metalurgist dwarves, assembling a neutrino detector sized ball shaped room, 1 kilometer undergrou…

    To be honest it does feel AI generated for me. Most likely because AI was trained on such art styles. Props to the artist though.

    Deliberately forging metals with nuclear blast is something we need to put in future sci-fi

    Unfortunately banks act on regulations. I'd much rather suggest avoiding banks altogether but that's discussion for later.

    If the push is large enough, manufacturers will develop their own drivers. If not, the implementation should be much easier nowadays.

    Windows Phone was a great idea and worked so well. But it was killed by the fact that people didn't want to maintain apps for 3 platforms. Nowadays when most of the things runs on …

    I meant user experience as a whole including browser and proprietary apps. The amount of ads I perceive a day using my PC can be counted on my fingers. And it's not just something …

    I daily drive linux (arch btw) with all the adblocking bells and whistles and I was dumbfounded when I saw my grandma's PC with all the clutter and ads. Really makes you miss the o…

    I think that even if we count init scripts which are way different level of complexity than C LoC, the Systemd would still be larger. Especially if we count just the scripts that a…

    Just the PID 1 manager is multiple times larger in LoC than any alternative. There is no metric in which systemd is more lightweight that I could find.

    Until it breaks, reports error, leaks, makes weird sound, needs a maintenance or even if you want to move it. You need to know how heavy it is, where are mounting points, where is …

    Maybe, but the scale of systemd features is humongous. It better be well documented. You don't need a user manual for hammer, you do need one for hydraulic press.

    The reason why Europe doesn't have this is the regulation.

    I love how claude focuses on exfiltrating the data "I need cha for charlotte". This could be solvable with some kind of low powered safety agent that would check claude's reasoning…

    I'm sometimes baffled how people's knee jerk reaction is to think how to ban this. And yet those same people complain about their parents that claimed that Rock'n'Roll or DnD shoul…

    This is whole a slippery slope. Always building on assumption of infinite exponential growth. But every exponential is at a certain point a sigmoid.
