The churn is rewriting 50+ line comments on every function. These comments will also include every place that references this function, as well as random historical data.

You can backload via generator plugged in. Nothing physically stopping it. You just would need to shut off the primary breaker so you don't load the line outside of your house.

The solar is the same way, but with an auto cutoff.

If it isn't an informed decision, it isn't really a decision at all. And the huge majority of people the huge majority of the time do not want to make an informed decision: they want what they came to the site for, news, games, family photos, etc.

You go to Facebook to see your cute nephew make spit bubbles. Do you care that they access your camera and canvas? What is a canvas? And sure access my camera, I want to upload photos!

It's fundamentally broken. They've studied the dark patterns, not to avoid them but to implement them best.

I think they'll keep cheap consumer electronics for the most part. Not as cheap as this last decade, but still cheap. They just want to control the entire software chain from boot to network-accessed resources.

Are you human? Then you must verify it from a "trusted computer", preferably with your driver's license. Gets governments and corporations as much information as they want, along with a guarantee that you can't "steal" their content and can't avoid their ads.

To the common man, there is no real difference between tax evasion and tax "optimization". Especially since the people who most use those "optimizations" often have excessive impact on the writing of the tax code in the first place!

It's the same critiques that come up with taxing the rich. "Oh people will just evade it". Cool then nail them then. Or if they all want to move to tiny tax shelters then tax them when they move their money there.

They want you to believe it's not possible to restrict them so that you don't try.

Intent matters.

You cannot reasonably create a law that covers all situations in their entirety. Even if you could, it would become obsolete the second it's in effect

Do you understand every part of your dependencies now, pre-AI?

I see it kind of like baking/cooking. Do you bake your bread from scratch? Do you grow your own wheat and grist your own flour?

I think over reliance on it or not even trying to understand what is happening is a big problem to be sure, but it's certainly not a new problem.

He's right about interest rates. But he's missing the point behind the debate: whose policy choices got us to where we are today where this is necessary? Republicans.

Not just Trump, Republicans as a whole. They are not fiscally conservative at all, and their culture wars and religious crusades are going to bankrupt the nation.

They'll sell you up a rope to corporate donors asking for deregulation. And we've seen exactly what happens when there is money to be made at the expense of other people's lives: spoiler alert, people like money more than they care about other people's health.

Why is it necessary to legislate it if it's nonsense? If there is no culpability, why would there be any threat?

It's astoundingly trivial to abuse.

If people could imagine it being used against them, maybe they might understand. Like labeling the Republican party a terrorist organization because they sponsored Jan 6 insurrectionists.

> If you use git for packages, then your repo becomes the package boundary. You no longer have the option of producing multiple packages from one repo, or even one package from multiple repos.

What does this even mean?

I'd argue that having the source to build the thing is more important than the artifacts. Release artifacts are more of a convenience. If the thing doesn't build from the source given, what use is it?

It makes it more accepted, because if everyone is doing it why wouldn't I do it?

Report that shit to your security officer

Their dining tables are pretty much all solid pine.
