Noto Sans Mono for me

Why would a 302 temporary redirects for engramma.dev → app.engramma.dev be classified as “Social engineering content”?

Another situation is multi-episode releases. I remember first encountering this with LOST where the 2h season finale would be listed as two separate episodes, which for a season finale wasn’t too annoying. More recently, later seasons of The Good Place would air two episodes at a time, and that always caused a mess as well that required manual intervention sometimes.

And if you comply with unjust laws, then it’s way harder to challenge them in the courts.

This is one of the most sensible comments in the thread. The law is the problem. This is something which should have been self regulated by websites themselves, but Meta lobbied for laws like this so they wouldn’t have to police it. The law making this mandatory for everyone when this should be a parental control is the issue.

IMO the benefit and curse is you could fork it, maintain it, patch it yourself, etc if you wanted, but then its a full time job keeping it up to date with changes. As others have pointed out, this is a decisive change, so a fork probably wouldn’t be a solo project, but the bifurcation in development would be a large impact, slowing development in other fixes and features.

So that means everyone is either bi or ace?

It’s probably more likely that straight people don’t even exist. Everyone is a little bit gay.

Well the author is cited as AFP and had many articles posted today, so seems like it’s this newswire service? This seems like it’s written as a transcript for a segment on NPR. It could be that if it was written by an AI, that it was trained on those transcripts from news segments? Also possibly this was an actual audio segment and that was lost as it was posted to this news website. If you read transcripts of segments that aired on NPR, they feel the same way. It makes more sense when you hear the segment and the multiple speakers and interviews, but without that context, it reads oddly.

Their employees had Intune running on their personal phones and computers which got wiped. Great reminder to never mix work and personal devices.

That seems like a broad generalization, and for specialized software that requires newer hardware, you’d expect to find the rate of bitflips crashes much lower than 10%. You could argue that since Firefox is supported on older operating systems, longer than the support lifetime of the OS ^[1], it’s likely Firefox is being used specifically to get the last bit of life out of the hardware before it gets trashed.

And someone in leadership who isn’t about to die of natural causes.

Yeah, I’ve had my share of timezone madness, but usually anytime timezones are involved, the DST doesn’t cause too much more extra work (except for potentially creating invalid times in the spring you have to handle).

It’s been a while, but i worked on something similar long ago, and the way we did it was in the user’s profile, store the TZ identifier, so for example Europe/Berlin. We had alerts for users stored in an alerts table, and there was a column for “last sent” and “next scheduled”. Everytime an alert was sent, it would check the user’s profile and use the TZ info to generate the UTC time that the next email should go out and update “next scheduled” field with the UTC value. Granted the options for the schedule were fairly limited (every hour, every day, every month), but it worked pretty flawlessly from what I recall.

Yes, I’m familiar with the Tom Scott video, but even he says at the end to store data in UTC and use a library like tzdata for rendering, don’t do it yourself. I was more curious about what day to day issues were happening because of DST, since that seems like bad implementation, and not an impossible problem that would be causing half of all IT issues.

but how could this have happened? we subscribe to AWS Shield Advanced!?

What sorts of issues? It’s been common for decades to store time in UTC, and render local time on the client side.

This isn’t isolated to tech and is how bigotry persists

I think the lack of author attribution on this article is a hit of AI. Clicking on other articles, they do list the author and don’t have a fake interview tone Question and Answer tone to them.

What is up with the writing style of this article?? Seems like AI Slop, but it’s worse than usual. The Verge article has more details and isn’t written poorly. Check it out and not The Guardian.

Assuming the laptop you’re looking to control has HDMI out and USB input for Keyboard and mouse, I think you’re right with the KVM switch idea, one that supports USB and HDMI input, and can switch between them between two devices. What I would do is get something which can record HDMI on your main PC. Some gamer devices have HDMI passthrough, which you’d plug into the KVM switch, but you could also use an HDMI splitter to have a feed from the laptop going into the KVM switch and to the recorder on your main computer. On your main computer, you could use OBS Studio to record the video from the laptop.
