I fully believe it and it reads as extremely plausible. I'm less trying to cast down on the claim and more trying to hedge my authority on this subject.

It's probably less that he had "access" and more like it maintained some underlying systems.

In a prior role, we realized something similar with outages. For our particular product, we AWS went down - we went down. We freaked out the first time, but after it was done we realized not a single customer had inquired. This felt unusual since we were getting emails quickly if we have a self-inflicted outage.

Turns out, when a major provider went down all of our users were too busy fighting their own fires. When they do notice, it's on a day when ALL of their vendors are struggling so we don't get singled out as a bad apple.

I have read of Venezuelans using it as a safe harbor against their currency instability.

That seems valuable, but I’m not sure how much truth there is to a story I read on the internet.

For most of these bugs, they occur in a 3rd party software thats easily upgraded.

I’m saying patching is easy because the pill is delivered to you.

I strongly doubt that. The fixes for most of these are trivial to the point it’s almost automated.

Same where I live. I love finding high-mileage cars that are way cheaper than everything else. People seem allergic to these vehicles, but I’ve yet to have any major issues with them.

But, like clockwork, that 10 year marks and everything just starts rusting out. While I could be religious about washing, that’s a huge pain.

They're too hung up on their next product being more of the same.

They'd honestly do well just to pick one of the open harnesses, aquihire their team and start from their

Why not?

> but society is getting increasingly SAFE

It’s such a shame that media (social and traditional) really plays up loss aversion. My local news is basically fear mongering. My local social media page is filled with people who have nothing better to do with their time than complain about all of the negative stuff happening in this town. They take every isolated incident and project it as some major pattern. It’s really sad.

Yes, but there is generally not a requirement to inspect trees. Even a tree being dead is not sufficient to prove negligence. Dead trees don’t fall over immediately.

It depends. I had fences on several sides of my yard growing up. Nobody doubled up. For the most part, it worked. It seems liked all of the fences had a primary owner who’s attitude was “I have a fence, it doesn’t matter if you have a fence, but I do - so I will pay to maintain my fence”

It worked.

Nope (though it does depend). I’ve been through several trees falling from storms.

Unless negligence is involve (like an arborist being hired to condemn a tree), they’re generally considered and act of god. They’re the responsibility of the property they fall onto.

So, in the case of OP, the situation is unfortunate, but it’s on him to maintain his properties and his fence lines within his properties. It’s convenient the state has a fence along part of his property, but it’s not their responsibility to fix it for adjacent lots.

I’m not actually complaining but I’m seeing an increasing number of family oriented gaming consoles. They seem like something eared towards gamer parents who don’t wan their kids going all in on a console yet.

This positions them to compete directly against those

And, yet, I can't get Opus 5.5 to run analysis on a public data set without it complaining about all sorts of PII adjacent stuff.
