    I seriously doubt 75% of password strength checkers for that very reason.


    To be fair, having gone through a couple of GDPR transitions, deleted in reality is often a full row in the PII table. All your actions and behaviour are still logged, there’s just longer any way to tie your ID back to PII.


    Wait, are we talking Linux ISOs or “Linux ISOs”?


    This right here. Go live there. Stop trying to get the locals to speak your language.



    (I’m not a US citizen; I believe guns should be controlled and there’s no reason for a citizen to own a gun)

    Don’t US school run shooter exercises? Darwin, even here in the UK where I live, the secondary school (12-16) ran twice yearly active shooter exercises - although they called them something else, like “lockdown exercise” and we’ve only ever had one school shooting (1996).

    My point being that surely any exercise would train the whole response system, including pepper spray drones (still can’t quite believe I’m typing this - anything to avoid actual gun control, I guess)?


    Feel like we’re missing an overflow joke here!

    Or something like: // initialise a glass using max water value as indicator that glass is unused


    I’m not a US citizen but do you have any rights at a border checkpoint? I was under the impression that no warrant is necessary, nor lawyer required, to answer questions.


    I’ve worked in many large enterprises. They always cut too deep - thats the tactic: Cut more than needed to remove the “fat” (in the eyes of the decision holders) then rehire a bit where you’re not holding up.

    In this case it’s two steps back and one step forward. Net, it’s still a reduction of the org size.


    You’ve got to harvest them at your nearest pizzagate parlour. If you’re U.K. like me, we’ve only got one branch, the Pizza Express in Woking.




    Have you considered that natural selection also applies to being smarter so we can invent better drugs?


    Mozilla wants to do everything except make Firefox succeed, it seems.


    Arguably Zig has a simpler approach to memory management (which can also lead to more errors, arguably) which makes the transition from C somewhat easier. Downside is that the language is still under heavy development and you definitely have to be up for the ride.



    That’s the announcement. It isn’t the story.

    AI writing detected in an article about the evils of AI. It’s like rain on your wedding day.


    Denmark had a joke candidate who won a term in parliament 1994-1998: Jacob Haugaard.

    He ran representing the Party of Intentionally Workshy Elements (slogan: If Employment is Healthy, Give it to the Sick), on a programme of:

    • More tailwind on cycle paths [clearly a Danish issue]
    • A standard work day of 8 hours spare time, 8 hours of sleep and then 8 hours of rest.
    • Army field rations to include Nutella.
    • Shorter supermarket queues

    When he got in he was clearly terrified, but over time he did participate and take part. I don’t think he could quite believe it.

    I loved his parting shot, after his term ended, when his portrait (like that of all MPs) was hung in Parliament and he said: “Let this serve as a warning that any idiot populist can get elected”.
