EU: "By January 2027, Google must also begin sharing anonymized search data with some rivals"

Google: "Europeans' private searches would be exposed to unfamiliar companies, without adequate anonymization of the data"

Em.... Google, the data is supposed to adequately anonymised! Sheesh.

This is barely brighter than the light from a full moon

And the full moon is quite bright. I think this is what he's referring too. People in a city don't realise just how bright.

I'm certainly not advising for this mirror thing, though. And most certainly not thousands of them...

You got Google you can look up what I wrote and confirm

Reeks of the "do your own research" crowd...

Just answer the question, FFS, and provide your references.

Water isn't wet. Water makes things wet.

It was always "the land of the free", but only for some.

Obviously Republican, so yeah, it's a core tenant -- companies and profits and billionaires before, well, everyone and everything else.

Never say never. "I have a lump of bytes that end in a NUL always -- this function works perfectly!"

It's also one of the things I love about C -- that you can do that.

I rarely use C. I generally use Typescript or Python these days.

But it is a genuine love I have of C, that it's so close to the hardware, and so powerful because of that, second only to raw assembler. (I tend to "visualise" how computers work through C).

But it's also so dangerous and easy to use wrong.

"To err is human, ..." from the original "to err is human, to forgive, devine", which also gives us "to err is human, to moo, bovine", and "... to bleat (or 'baaa'), ovine".

Yep. 40 hour weeks are still the norm here. And 20 days statuary holiday/vacation days (on top on national holidays).

AWS us-east-1 had an issue last year. us-east-1 is also the "Global" region, so this affected IAM Roles (among other "global" services) across the entire world. Everyone was affected until the issue was resolved.

I use opencode, with GitHub CoPilot/Claude Sonnet 4.6. Works great for me.

I much prefer it to using CoPilot in VSCode, which is pretty much useless (I can only access the one file that's open in your editor, or the extra file(s) you give me one just one query and then you have to add them all again to all a follow up question -- such bollox).
