Good thing °R and °RA aren’t pointing guns at each other
Neither are °F and °R nor °K and °C
This is almost artfully done

261·13 days agoIt’s a recent development. First the LiDAR manufacturer leaked that they sold them to Tesla. Then several teslas had been spotted with LiDAR rigged on to their roofs. Then in a lawsuit an engineer admitted they’re training fsd with LiDAR

Waymo doesn’t give a shit if their cars are ugly and can cover them in dozens upon dozens of cameras and sensors. They’re not selling them to consumers who care about looks, they are renting them to riders who don’t want to die on the short trip. They also only operate in a small region of the country with limited weather conditions and frequently stop service when weather is bad.
Tesla is run by an idiot who insists that a pair of cameras and a single lidar sensor that they keep deciding to disable can somehow magically always work in all weather and lighting conditions and is selling to consumers who don’t want an ugly car and expect to be able to operate their purchase at all times
Different constraints leads to different levels of success
I have no issues reading in general but I still have this experience. Like I read the entire goblet of fire in one sitting without sleeping or eating (my mom still talks about how much this freaked her out to this day) but simultaneously I have this issue all the time now as an adult when reading technical white papers for my job. Halfway in I suddenly realize I didn’t actually read the last several paragraphs.

51·2 months agoI think they mean natively detecting other Lemmy links and following them in-app instead of launching a browser. That’s usually what link-handling is shorthand for in the software industry
I frequently find voyager opens a browser to a random other lemmy instead of sending me to the post inside voyager itself
This will drive billions into refining the surveillance state. They now know they need genuine original human interaction and will do everything possible to capture everything from texts to cctv footage
It’s honestly way more about plant diversity. There are a million different plants in like a ten square mile area that all look exactly like an aloe and are related. The only way to differentiate them is by hyper obscure differences like their root structure and what their sap consists of.
You don’t even need to be in the proper tropics. Walk around San Diego with a plant id app and watch it spit out a different name for the same palm tree over and over because there are actually hundreds of varietals of palm with similar extremely complex identification processes. Some with toxic fruit and some with edible fruit that look the same.
OP is not entirely wrong. At least in Linux land you can now implement EDR like functionality entirely with EBPF without installing a fucking rootkit. So traditional EDR products are a grift if you are on the bleeding edge.
31·2 months agoManagement: Our consultants don’t know what ebpf or what immutable filesystems are so obviously your wizard magic is not better than crowdstrike. Also IT will be in charge of that one component and clickops it bypassing the entire CICD pipeline and sanity checking system you have. It’s for compliance which is our word for shut up or we fire you.
22·2 months agoYou usually run into issues if you are trying to use off the shelf tools and git providers. IMO GitHub and GitHub actions sucks hard for monorepo. The fact that all actions have to be stored in a single directory for example almost certainly is unmanageable rats nest waiting to happen at any sufficiently large business with a sufficiently complex product or set of products.
This is why companies like google run their own forms of git with custom wrappers to let you do things like pull a segment of the terabyte sized repo or run partial builds with tooling that basically runs some kind of graph against the changes. Bazel for example had to be invented to help solve that problem at Google and pants similarly for twitter (who also has a monorepo)
If you are willing to invest in using tools like bazel and own building all these complex wrappers then it can be fine. But if you want to off the shelf gitlab or GitHub actions and use your IDEs built in git tooling it’s not going to be for you. That’s the difference between what’s possible or a good idea at a medium shop vs a company with 40k engineers
In my experience at a company that just moved away from monorepo, half the off the shelf vendors and foss tools out there balk at you if you expect monorepo support. We moved away specifically because at our current company size it is more tolerable to have our different products separate and eat the occasional pain of mass pattern adjustments across the repos than to build out a team to manage the custom tooling required for a gig plus sized monorepo
Plus, even google doesn’t have a true monorepo. Chrome and Android are not in the same repo as search for example. Find your seams and manage them appropriately
If you aren’t passing, get the fuck out of the passing lane. I don’t care if you are going the speed limit, above the speed limit, or below the speed limit, get the fuck out of the passing lane you aren’t passing. Stop being smug that you are going the speed limit and bottlenecking traffic on your ego and follow the actual passing laws. It’s hypocritical to be all fired up about one law and violate the other.
Bit shifting is not malicious on its own. Bit shifting to specifically conceal the purpose of your policy violating code from the auditors who audit the apps submitted to the App Store is malicious.
It’s about why you are doing it and what you are doing with it and not that it’s bit shifting on it’s own.
This. We tried to ban windows and literally the ELT blocked it because they personally didn’t want to learn MacOS despite the entire engineering, product, and medical team being on it. We now keep having to pay more for audits and for security solutions for the 15 people refusing to get off windows in mostly the finance part of the company
One could argue the requirements have changed because the security and compliance part of the world finally caught up to modern software delivery concepts. Even the most dinosaur apps at compliant orgs are being dragged kicking and screaming into new CI/CD tools where applying governance and custody chains and permissions and approvals are all self documented automated hooks.
For me it’s that arbitrarily not pairing them gives a higher end experience than pairing them. You can play music over multiple by just selecting them all when you air play. The only difference is the lack to stereo, which if you have them all over your house you wouldn’t want anyway.
Meanwhile if you do pair them, then it’s stereo only. So if they are placed around the room, then arbitrarily you can’t hear some notes or vocals out of both speakers. Plus if you use Siri, for some reason only the left speaker speaks. We have an open concept kitchen and had one speaker in the counter and one in the living room on the tv stand and it was just overwhelmingly stupid to have only the speaker in the kitchen speak back.
It’s also stupid I can’t buy a single big home pod and pair it with 2-4 minis to make a 7.1 surround. Or even just pair more than 2 minis.
Another way to look at that is ~810 people having an issue with a different 810 people every single day assuming only one scan per day. That’s 891,000 people having a huge fucking problem at least once every single year.
I have this problem with my face in the TSA pre and passport system and every time I fly it gets worse because their confidence it is correct keeps going up and their trust in my actual fucking ID keeps going down
In 2019 the total size of the text stored by Reddit was only 50TB. A Petabyte of data in cold storage is only 12k a year so even if they 500x in size since 2019 (very unlikely) it’s a drop in their ARR. given they sell the data for advertising and for AI, they are not deleting it. Reddit also self hosts a lot of their infra (they used to present their architecture at kubecon) so the storage costs would be even lower
Opsgenie and PagerDuty let you add them as contacts from within the app and it manages the rotating numbers for you so you can keep using a specific ringtone for them. This is also how they can override DND so you can go back to muting your phone at night and know that pages will still come in.
