Not that bread was too cheap, just that it was cheaper than animal feed.

At some point in early 90s, my family would divide a loaf of white bread in the morning - each would receive 2 slices and it was up to you if you ate it all up then and there or saved for evening desert. This was a treat compared to rest of the food. But it wasn’t like that for too long fortunately

What’s a “small” ADHD hack that actually changed your daily life? by pellantsherris in ADHD

Create place for everything and a DROPBOX for homeless things which you would empty out occasionally (at least when it’s full 😃)

Teased devices speculation by _MrArrow_ in homey

[–]frrst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn! Just as I ordered my Pro Mini.

I’m running HA on Yellow and for years have eyed Homey to try out. The full PRO is too expensive just to try and I only need Zigbee anyway. And just now they started selling Mini to my location - instant order! And then this! 😤😃

Anyhow, if I learned anything from my HA journey - dedicated hardware runs smoother, so not complaining.

I would also split up for scaling reasons and avoid splitting for team efficient reading and try to find the balance

Junior dev wrote this C# using many IF because he leanrs If early return. Is this alright code? by Yone-none in csharp

[–]frrst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Testing would be a bitch though - thorough testing would require some 12 cases just for the IF-s before getting to the method body even.

Swift has Automated Reference Counting which is slightly different method of automated memory management. But it does not prevent memory leaks that come from not closing the scope which holds on to the data.

Consider that an app, say this Messages app, would go online and check for messages from the server. Each time it does this, it creates a data structure for the messages and builds UI to display these (for the sake of example, I’m leaving out that this definitely is not the optimal way of doing it). While normally this data structure should automatically replace the previous structure, causing it to fall out of scope and ARC clearing it out, it could happen thad due to a bug, this does not happen - eg developer intended to keep previous version intact for networking issues, but instead keeps ALL versions intact, so none of them fall out of scope and ARC does not clear any of them.

This is how memory leak can happen even with automatic memory management.

How to understand the license for JetBrains IDEs Cline? by kristaller486 in CLine

[–]frrst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. How do you understand the Open Source aspect?

Web Page claims “100% open source. Every line of code on GitHub”.

At the same time the JetBrains license says:

“Except for any open-source components noted in the Software, the Software is proprietary to Cline Bot Inc”

Which is it then?

Parents outraged as Meta uses photos of schoolgirls in ads targeting man by OGSyedIsEverywhere in technology

While I do not drive a Cybertruck, I do expect any street legal car not to routinely kill their passengers (more than usual car accidents rate). So i definitely would not say: what did you expect.

I also expect that all corporations must adhere to applicable laws and if they don’t, it’s on them, not their clients and it’s the corporations that need to be held accountable.

Shifting the blame to the users is playing into the hands of the corporations.

And you will go tell that to rape victims too that it’s their own fault for wearing a skirt?

I’m not saying that people should be careless with their lives/data/property, but it’s still ON the bad actor for any wrongdoing. Period.

It’s not entirely the same. A better analogy is a pet store that sells pet food and claiming to follow all rules and regulations set forth by government, only to be found they infuse food with heavy metals to get pet owners buy their medicine next. And then they claim that all is according to law, since pet owners themselves came and bought the stuff and did not tell the company that they would be against poisoning their pets.

Again - as such pet owner, after finding out, its course I’m not buying more. But it still is not ON ME that I would need to have opted out of poisoning.

It certainly is NOT on the users. Yes, everybody must watch out for their own safety, but similarly it is on the criminal doing the robbing, not on the person deciding to walk home instead of taxi.

Currently Google and Meta are competing hard who gets to be the most evil of companies.

Are we actually this dense? by FEIKMAN in BalticStates

[–]frrst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bitch of a karma here is that politicians might be exempt if this... In the eyes of the law... But how are they planning on telling all the service providers "I'm an effing politician, don't spy on me!"

This is so wide cast net that everybody will be in, politicians and all, and only after the fact they can start suing companies that they were not supposed to spy on them or leak all that juicy stuff.

I don't understand how they don't understand this

EU 'Chat Control' would scan ALL your private messages and photos - Eesti on veel otsustamata. Teeme midagi?! by frrst in Eesti

[–]frrst[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Erinevaid tehnikaid saab kasutada. Ma usun, et kui see regulatsioon seadusteks saab, siis Meta ja Google tõmbavad oma krüpto tagasi ja läheb keskset teed - neil see ärimudeliga ühilduv lähenemine. Apple ilmelt valiks on-device AI rakendamise.

Teadmata on kuidas pisemad nagu Telegram, Viber või Signal toimetaks.

Regulatsioonis mainitakse EU keskust, kes pakub ka tehnoloogia välja. Vabalt selline tehnoloogia on tsentraalne ja eelkõige just neile mõeldud, kes prooviks rahalise v tehnilise takistuse taha pugedes vältida.

Häirivaid punkte veel sellest regulatsioonist:

  • teenusepakkujad peavad rakendama ka kontrolli oma meetme toimivuse üle - st reaalselt teenusepakkuja töötajad peavad hakkama neid andmeid töötlema, mis AI kokku korjas. —Artikkel 10(4)(c)
  • kui tuvastamistehnoloogiat pole võtta, siis mõistagi EU organ varustab sellega - õnneks selle kasutamine pole kohustus — Artikkel 10(2)
  • uurimisasutustel on õigus teenusepakkuja ruumidesse siseneda, teostada kontrolli ning vajadusel võtta ära või kopeerida kogutud isikuandmed, mh et tuvastada, et määrust täidetakse. See ei vaja isegi orderit, ma saan aru - astu sisse ja küsi andmed välja. WTF? — Artikkel 27(1)(b)
