Don't have links anymore, but few months ago I came across some startup trying to sell AI that watches your production environment and automatically optimizes queries for you.

It is just a matter of time until we see first AI induced large data loss.

Short version: A bunch of shitty companies have as business model to sell open databases to companies to track security vulnerabilities - at pretty much zero effort to themselves. So they've been bugging the kernel folks to start issuing CVEs and do impact analysis so they have more to sell - and the kernel folks just went "it is the kernel, everything is critical"

tl;dr: this is pretty much an elaborate "go fuck yourself" towards shady 'security' companies.

I'm in my 40s and therefore generally in the "get off my lawn, kids" age.

But I totally agree with that article. I've converted quite a few legacy devices with barrel jack to USB-C - and got rid of a huge box of junky old power bricks. Especially for devices I only use occasionally I don't want to search for the matching power bricks - I just want to plug it into one of the 4 USB-C PD sockets I have installed into my desk.

I wasn't quite sure what to think about this, so I've asked my local LLM. Seems it is fine.

After my Russian wife was browsing the internal news yesterday to see what level of information is provided over there she mentioned that their solution in the abortion debate is to have everyone give birth, and just give up the kids to be raised by the state if you don't want them.

Also there seems to be a proposal to exclude women from higher education unless they've given birth.

This feature also has the potential of endangering those drivers. If I were a driver I'd definitely not opt in to a function like this.

It's been shown over and over again for the last two decades that you can't build a reliable archive on platforms outside of your control. Stuff like Instagram can be useful for trying to draw traffic to your own platform - but you always should treat those platforms as throwaway content.

51% support slower employee response time outside of work hours

Uh, what? That does not compute. Either it's work, or it is not work (and I don't respond to anything, and don't get contacted in the first place)

this has helped me realize the unhealthy relationship I had with Reddit and was a good way to break that

Exactly, now that I have an unhealthy relationship with Lemmy I can't put effort into the one with Reddit.
