Honestly, it was the tone of the message, which is admittedly difficult to derive from a forum. IMHO, the proper response would have been one that questioned whether the 'upscale grocer' selling spareribs at $6.99/lb vs $1.49/lb were at different ends of the subjective or objective quality spectrum. In my case, they are literally the same brand: Smithfield. The only difference is that Aldi is $5+/lb less expensive.

That said, IMO, unless we're talking about a butcher that sources heritage-breed Berkshire (or the like) pork from a local farmer, I don't really give a flying fuck where the previously cheap cut of meat I'm going to put on my smoker for 6h is sourced from.

Why would I pay $6.99/lb at one of the 'upscale grocers' in town for spareribs when I can get them at Aldi for $1.49? I, too, drive a Mercedes, but it doesn't mean I'm a fucking moron w/my money.

That is somewhat misleading. In this case you control (more or less) the client, so you can install a root certificate on your firewall and the client and let the firewall do its MitM on all your traffic. If Windows tries to evade that, the firewall will fail to decrypt the traffic and block it, which was the intended result. If Windows does not evade the MitM, the firewall can do full L7 filtering just like in the good old days.

It is wild that companies get to manage pension funds. That kind of thing is not legal around here...

The average employee lasts well less than a year at a fast casual; this had little to do w/her background.

I am absolutely certain many of those kids are great at writing code; what I have found in the last ~3y of hiring candidates out of undergrad and/or masters programs is that they DO NOT interview well.

They can answer esoteric technical questions about software dev (I *assume* this is because they study for coding interview questions) but they cannot possibly answer more general questions about themselves, how they would operate in a real-world business setting, and/or how they might build something from soup to nuts.

I'm not asking them to give me real-world experience; but, I expect a college graduate to be able to think about questions asked critically and provide a coherent and thoughtful reply to that question. Even if it's technically 'wrong', the conversational nature is INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT for any work I have done in my 25+ year career.

Anyone can have AI solve most esoteric technical coding problems now; interfacing ability w/others on the dev teams and the rest of the business is what is important in getting shit done.

Colleges need to start investing HEAVILY in leveling up their students in how to interview well.

"Ms. Mishra, the Purdue graduate, did not get the burrito-making gig at Chipotle."

I think this single sentence says more about it than anything else in the article.

You can't do that. The copilot is not a real key to the keyboard protocol. It sends something like Windows, Shift, F23. You cannot sensibly combine it with other keys or make it reliably control a modifier state. This is completely unlike the Windows key which is not only its own unique keycode but also typically gets non-conflicting lines on the keyboard matrix, so the hardware lets you combine it with any other key.

There are still unused keycodes available, AFAIK. It makes zero sense that the Copilot key was crippled. If it was only crippled in hardware, vendors could fix that, but the only way to fix the Copilot key is to reprogram the keyboard controller firmware, which then makes it incompatible with Windows.

Not the only one. My laptop and all my virtual machines (other than appliances) run Fedora, and the 6-month upgrade does not break anything.

Normal updates are automatically applied every morning.

I watch dogs (primarily overnight--most for 3-7 days but some 1 day and some >7d) via Rover. I make around $1500/month (pre-1099) and after their ~20% cut (of which most people give back to me in tips).

I WFH so the largely passive income is nice. I wouldn't have found as many people w/o a platform to do the heavy lifting for me in finding new dogs.

I am not advocating that we need to have these sorts of things in the market, but it does make for nice extra cash. YMMV.

In every car except Teslas. In a Tesla, the lane assist will not allow deviations from its chosen path. If you try to correct it, it will fight you until you do it strongly enough, at which point it will turn off entirely.

There is no "encourage" in a Tesla.

Steeeve has been spouting nonsense, blaming the pilots without having any concrete evidence. Then his next video suddenly comes up with "oh, new evidence, the RAT deployed" even though there had been reports of this within hours of the crash.

He has zero credibility at this point.

You can't shield that well. Navigation signals are ridiculously weak.

This is the kind of article I would expect in Pravda in the "good" old days of the Soviet Union.

These are some of the lies in the article:

The "ban" never existed, it was just a decision not to plan for nuclear power. Lifting the "ban" will not allow anyone to build nuclear reactors; that requires a separate legal framework.

The Danish grid has solved the inertia problem by buying commercial off-the-shelf synchronous compensators, at a far lower cost than implementing nuclear power.

The "ban" is not being lifted yet, the government is merely ordering an analysis of whether it makes sense to remove it.

Nuclear power is not being considered because it might help grid stability but because some people / politicians are worried about the fluctuating prices of electricity.

Indeed, it makes zero sense.

Broadcom, in its infinite wisdom, has decided to redefine the term "zero day".

"Broadcom defines a zero-day security patch as a patch or workaround for Critical Severity Security Alerts with a Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) score greater than or equal to 9.0."

So for Broadcom, zero day just means "really bad".
