Ethical phone maybe only hardware wise, software wise with Google it is far from ethical

I’ve studied CS in Italy and most if not all exams were both written and oral some also had labs. I thought it was the same for other degrees too.

RIP any hope for an Apple alternative to Samsung Dex. An iPhone 16 pro running the same specs will never be able to run macOS. We already knew it but this made official

Why would anyone buy this over a good as new refurb 16 pro with 100% battery and likely few months of Apple care left? Here they can be found for $650 or less

So basically we are back at tagging stuff as good for first contributors like we have been doing since the dawn of GitHub

How does a potential positive contributor pierce through? If they are not contributing to something already and are not in the network with other contributors? They might be a SME on the subject and legit have something to bring to the table but only operated on private source.

I get that AI is creating a ton of toil to maintainers but this is not the solution.

Yeah and 50% more than Rome, but overall less than all airports already doing it in Europe. This news made front page out of two things:

1) English people do not know anything about continental Europe

2) Americans do not know anything about Europe

Gatwick already had it too, at least a part of it.

The fact Heathrow got 30/40% more traffic than other airports in the same continent already having it doesn’t make the news worth all this noise.

How is this news? A lot of airports in Europe had had this for years and even in England there were terminals within the major hubs where this was already the norm

Reading the blog post and comments here from fellow UK inhabitants I am shocked to see how phone lines are considered common when I always ever lived in places with only one of them for the entire place (3+ bedroom houses on two floors).

GitHub already charges organisations to fund open source features. Otherwise it wouldn't lack so many enterprise level features, it wouldn't have half baked solution that do not take into consideration enterprise requirements. GH Actions for example is still not there yet after years

Always fingerpick test if the monitor throws a number you don’t feel.

Any diabetic person must have heard and read this recommendation a thousand times.

The actual scenario to worry about is if the number is too high and a close loop system make so the pump injects too much insulin.

If you think about societies still in English colonial hangover and ChatGPT you might find that they have similar reasons to speak the way they speak.

Both aim at using an English that is safe, controlled and policed for fear of negative evaluation.

IP based exclusion should not be considered a security measure, not even for a low risk environment like a home lab

I don’t hate UK, otherwise I wouldn’t be so critical about it, I wouldn’t care if I hated it.

It’s okay if you wanna keep the head in the sand. I get it. It’s better if you don’t know any better. People who are themselves ignorant cannot see other people gaps.

Btw look up the reasons Coca Cola rebranded the Coke Zero to Coke Zero Sugar, and why it all stemmed from UK.
