That’s not been my experience. It may be using a web view under the hood, but the functionality is quite different. Additional features, breaking the video call out of the primary pane, etc. To suggest that they’re essentially the same is not accurate.
Suggesting that multiculturalism has always been harmful to Québéc is a bit rich when you consider that it was adopted as a policy largely as a reflection of the multicultural nature of the French culture within a majority-English Canada.
Québéc has its own language, history, food, and culture, sure, but they also have their own legal system and a massive political party that advocates for their own political and cultural interests.
Really? All I’ve seen is a Flatpak that’s really just a wrapped web view. Is there now a native version of Teams for Linux?
Well presumably there are at least some performance and safety benefits to using these new alternatives. Otherwise it’s just a blatant license dodge.
Yes. Tailscale is surprisingly simple.
# systemctl start tailscale
# tailscale up
Debian should fork it and re-license it under the GPL.
In addition to the excellent examples posted here that refute this, I want to add “Last Exile”, “Wonderful Days”, and “Chrono Crusade”.
If a cyclist is going to take the lane (and we have every right to) it’s very dangerous to leave any room for drivers to pass because they inevitably try this sort of shit.
Ride out into the middle of the lane. Make them recognise you as someone taking the lane. They’ll still want to kill you for daring to be a cyclist, but they won’t want to damage their car.
Because your reading comprehension skills have grasped the last line: “but of course that’s not where we’re directing our efforts”? The vast vast majority of AI effort and funding is being poured into agents, the focus of the post.
Or maybe because you’re curious?
Or bored?
You do you guy/girl.
As for parsing the waste stream, some sites do this in a limited capacity to filter out typical recyclables, but not for things like nickel, copper, gold, and other metals. I believe that tools like AI can and should be applied to going through decades of landfill to extract minerals that would otherwise have to be conventionally mined.
Sadly, it’s not that simple.
They’re not cramming AI into products to appease clueless investors. They’re cramming into everything to see where it has traction because AI is very valuable… to them.
If a company can insert itself between you and your daily behaviour:
…then it can control that experience:
This isn’t idiocy, it’s very profitable and fucking evil.
Dropping environmental concerns from a pension profile has got to be the worst sort of irony. What good is retiring with slightly more money if the world you’re retiring into is literally on fire?
I actually wrote something on this back in February. The TL;DR being that given that so many companies manage to build impressive businesses on garbage software, that maybe professional devs like myself were thinking about it all wrong. Maybe garbage is “good enough”.
It wasn’t until months later that I posed this question to a former project manager and he offered the best explanation I’ve heard so far. Garbage is indeed good enough… until it isn’t. Then you’ve got to spend 10 times more money to unfuck the mess. So either you pay a little more now, or a lot more later. Either way, building it properly has a higher return in the end.
You posted an article with a misleading headline suggesting that the Prime Minister is elected by Canadians at large — something objectively false, and you’re suggesting that I’m the ignorant one.
Yes, but you have to account for the general ignorance Canadians have about our electoral system.
Woah woah there friend. We’re on the same side here. I cycle my kid to school and then onto work nearly every day and I’m regularly on the receiving end of some seriously scary and dangerous assholes behind the wheel. They feel entitled to the whole damned road, and I’m sure they fantasise about running us over. I’ve been tailgated, screamed at, nearly clipped multiple times by people “just wanting to catch the light” or some nonsense. They are dangerous assholes and should be banned from the city.
I’m just saying that if you’re going to pretend that everyone behind the wheel of a car is fully aware that they’re pushing two tonnes of steel and glass around at high speeds, then you’re not working with facts. Cars are literally designed to stoke the illusion of comfort and immobility, that you’re just “on the road” without a Giant Metal Cage around you. You take a human and put them in that situation they will inevitably drive like fucking psychopaths. That doesn’t mean that he shouldn’t go to prison forever, but it’s important to understand where this coming from.
The problem is the normalisation of a dangerous pattern.
I have been in precisely this position. The pain is real.
Politicians here have been stoking this anger for years now. Drivers feel entitled to do shit like this all the time (I speak from many personal experiences). He probably didn’t mean to kill the guy, but likely felt totally justified in jumping the curb and “trying to scare him”. They forget they’re driving fucking tanks around and justify their aggression with platitudes like “well I’m bigger, he should get out of the way”.
Why would you re-post the same misinformation three times and then keep all three posts up after you’ve been corrected twice? The Star is not owned by Post Media.
