And it’s still worse than a picture of a hill in Sonoma
Replace the CEO with an AI. They’re both good at lying and telling people what they want to hear, until they get caught
overwatch style
You mean team fortress style
Can’t wait for them to never roll it out
Kagi generated key points:
- The new Find My Device network on Android was designed with a strong focus on user security and privacy.
- The network uses a crowdsourced approach to locate lost or misplaced devices and belongings, even when they are offline.
- The location data reported by participating Android devices is end-to-end encrypted, ensuring Google cannot access or use the location information.
- The network has “aggregation by default” as a safety feature, requiring multiple nearby devices to detect a Bluetooth tag before reporting its location to the owner.
- The network also has protections to avoid contributing location reports when near the user’s home address.
- Rate limiting and throttling are used to prevent malicious real-time tracking, while still allowing the network to be useful for finding lost items.
- The network is compliant with industry standards for unwanted tracking, triggering alerts on both Android and iOS devices.
- Users have full control over which of their devices participate in the network and how.
- The network design has undergone internal security testing and is part of Android’s vulnerability rewards program.
- Prioritizing user safety and privacy is an ongoing commitment as the team continues to improve the Find My Device protections.
Recently I had to do an update to the underlying environment a codebase ran on. This was a somewhat involved upgrade and took a longer period of time than most of our work usually does. I did it in a separate worktree, so I didn’t have to constantly rejuggle the installed dependencies in the project, and could work on two features relatively concurrently
It also provides some utility for comparing the two versions. Nothing you couldn’t do other ways, but still useful
And in elixir/erlang we’re spoiled with loads of options, from ETS to mnesia
On the subreddits I moderated, I used a big regexp to preemptively filter their comments
Letting one through was a rare event
How about they cut executive pay instead of fucking the rank and file over
But you don’t have to go sketchy off brand. You can get Ubiquiti if you want a really good system, or eufy or reolink if you don’t want to muck about with the sysadmin stuff Ubiquiti requires
Best thing Elon has ever done right here
Apple has done this many times before. Over even more frivolous patents (i.e. a glossy black rectangle)
They made their bed, now they have to lie in it

some big stupid pop up interrupts my reading internet shit, pestering me for my email address
Seriously. I had a friend extolling how good his experience with his chiropractor was, in response to my tale about physical therapy after a skiing accident. I ended the argument pretty quickly by asking “how often do you have to go back”
Sign language yes, real time captions no. Only whatever live transcription crap your phone or computer could do
