    The BBC article doesn't specify the text with the image, but I clearly see a procedural gap in the police department. Accusing a man who only posted a photo, reorganizing the searc…

    Titles are really a trap cannot reveal the real work, everything it's related to the size of company, type of organization and sector. A "top" position in a small company could be …

    Governments that require age verification for operating systems to protect children also drop bombs on civilian neighborhoods, fight wars that orphan millions and tolerate child la…

    This law perfectly demonstrates the constraint problem: regulators assumed age verification is a simple checkbox at account setup. Right now I'm on an ESP32 with free RTOS, will I …

    Registration just creates friction for legitimate developers (thousands) while bad actors simply rotate shell companies and fake/stolen IDs. This conflates identity verification wi…

    Look at Chinese smartphone brands: Xiaomi, OnePlus took their slice from Samsung. Same pattern will play out with RAM and SSD. In 3-5 years, it won't be 'Samsung' on the label, it'…

    Western memory manufacturers decided to chase the AI bubble, abandoning the consumer and low-requirement markets entirely. Chinese manufacturers are now capturing that entire segme…

    Not long ago, Italian Supreme Court (Cassazione, ord. 34217/2025) established a critical principle reflecting a broader trend in personal data management: the "digital image" of a …

    I remember when I went from 286 to 486dx2, the difference was impressive, able to run a lot of graphical applications smoothly. Ironically, now I'm using an ESP32-S3, 10x more powe…

    I wonder if the bow drill principle for boring holes evolved from fire-starting techniques, where the same reciprocal motion was already understood and mastered in that years. Just…

    I agree that the ceiling of 4h is correct for high intense cognitive activities and that morning, after few hours after woke up, is the best time for these activities. And I would …

    I've carefully read this interesting discussion: some political, mostly about full cloud services (AWS) vs partial EU providers, or lock-in vs indipendence. I think the problem is …

    The irony is that EU education is still broader and more grounded in fundamentals, compared to US one that has become increasingly skills-oriented. I also prefer to design solution…

    I think that during ice age it was more easy to travel from Sicily to Malta, maybe they'll be able to find traces of humans even earlier than 8500 years ago. Anyway I think we have…
