I'm curious where we stand with regard to any planned or existing lawsuits against big tech for rights violations on artistic content. What are the courts saying about all this?

This idea that coding was a task for a real man or woman who were not lazy and capable of avoiding the pitfalls of the particular language they were using is and was never true. When you release a tool to the world that by its very use has the capacity of compromising security it will, of course, result in compromised security. So any effort to develop tools that prevent security flaws as part of the development process are superior for the general development community. Maybe that's not the case for some particular specialist project but for general development that will always be the case.

If only federal salaries were the only thing DOGE had to worry about.

smh

When I was at the University of Delaware we started with C. When my godson started 4 years ago it was scheme. I was never a big fan of scheme/lisp languages personally. I like the idea of using a relatively easy to understand language for fundies so long as its robust enough to cover all the bases. I don't think scheme/lisp is a good choice.

I suppose I'll be left in the dust, but I view AI as maybe an additional tool for finding code snippets to accomplish a specific task. Software architecture is not something I'll use AI for. I'm too much of a control freak for that.

Maybe this is where the failed audit money went :-)

They weighed a jumpsuit after walking and running through simulated rain. Came to the opposite conclusion.

That should make everyone angry! Go ahead and tell yourself you need this to censor the right and watch when it comes back and bites you in the butt.

Its hardly "ending" the debate. Personally I only use one space but one word processor doesn't decide what's correct. "Whitey" my technical writing instructor at the UofD would know, but sadly he has passed on.

Lets hope that they have a hotline setup that does not fail as well. Meaning several lines available and manned to take call ins of the physical ballot count regardless of whether or not the google forms appear to have succeeded or not.

so there

I'm using it at work on Windows 7 and I'm very happy with it. I like that I can develop with it and know that things will render properly. On linux? Sure why not? Its a good browser that adheres to standards.

Especially if you have a willing participant like a family member who wants to share their account with you ... https://fortune.com/2016/02/24...

Agreed! I continue to hold on to cable because I get tired of constantly having to enter credentials on my ROKU box to enable a stream from all of the various content providers. Also, who can afford to subscribe to all of the different streaming options coming along? There will be diminishing returns if they ramp up security too much on these things.
