No, publicly funded research is the reason the internet exists.

Despite the misleading headline, I really don't understand why anyone uses linkedin, there will inevitably be a trailing rely of comments claiming it has some irreplaceable value in professional networking, but I don't buy it. Nobody I've ever talked to has been able to articulate any actual value provided by "connecting" to another person on a social networking site. If you want to build professional connections go to lunch, join community calls, attend professional events, and go to conferences.

Sure it's a giant PITA, but it's not expensive to repair if you do the labor yourself. Parts for macbook are easy to comeby since Apple decentralizes repairs so heavily.

Sounds like his feedback loop is finally broken after years of logrolling with sycophants in government and higher ed.


Great, what's more concerning than crash rates though are impeding emergency vehicles, blocking roads, stalling when traffic lights are down, rolling past school buses with stop arms out, navigating in construction zones and lots of other issues that are left out of this report.


No, I think those are solidly less concerning than crash and injury rates.

Like, could you imagine yourself seeing a self driving car that's perfect in all the ways like that, no dumb quirks, but it crashes twice as often as a human, and saying "well it got the important stuff right"


Autonomous vehicles need to be safer than human drivers, not trading one set of safety concerns for different ones.

Waymo's cars are safer.

You have to pick one thing to be more important. Accident rates, or the stuff you listed in your first comment. Which one do you pick?

These cars are not one step forward, one step back. They're five steps forward, one step back. Saving lives is much bigger than the weirdness.


Yes, we're already running 800G networks, so this phrasing seems really silly to me.


The required shift from spoken first to written first communication, some people just never seem to make it on the boat.

Yeah, but I'm wondering when they'll officially change the name. lol


Sure I'll tell my employer to get right on that.


Sarcasm aside, it depends on whether your employer has configured Entra to allow classic TOTP (in which case Microsoft will try to push its own app as the default option, but you can in fact use anything that supports TOTP if you insist), respectively has set the option to only allow Microsoft's proprietary 2FA, which only works with the Microsoft app.


Yep our newest team member came in having never used a posix filesystem in a production environment. It genuinely blew my mind.
