What is obvious? Why they need my messages for the voice speech emulation?

The person you’re replying to is saying that in the several years the technological means to impersonate people at scale has become widely available, and because of this financial institutions are having to strengthen their security measures to defend against fraud.

We have constitutional barriers that would obstruct something like this.

As a US citizen, I have to say that you are completely mistaken. The US is a privacy hellscape.

States are responsible for orders of magnitude more innocent human deaths than every "terrorist" group in human history combined.

They’re also responsible for the preservation of more human life and well being than any other organization.

Also got to love the linguistic coincidence of Crabs and Cancer and how tech companies grow ever larger (monopolistic) to the detriment of their host (the greater economy/humanity)

It’s not a linguistic coincidence. The disease is named after the animal.

Once you sign up customers for 'cheaper electricity, but you have to agree to the occasional loadshedding', you can probably also sign them up for a bit of 'oh, and please burn some more electricity, when we tell you to'.

The former is already happening and useful, the latter would be a relatively simple and easy add-on that could be used to offer ever so slightly cheaper electricity.

My washing machine has a timer. I do the wash when local electricity rates are near zero.

If you are building the same binary for all microservices you lose the dependency-reduction benefit microservices provide, since your build will still break because of some completely unrelated team's code.

You’ll still get some isolation since not all pathways share the same code. It’s not all or nothing.

The blown up whale in Oregon is sort of like the SR-71 speed readout story. Reposted endlessly, but you just kind of accept it.

jounker · 9 months ago

There’s film of the whale being blown up. The best part is the sound of whale meat falling from the sky.

Is this a joke paper? This is unoptimized bubble sort. This is the first sort I wrote when I was 13. This is literally the most obvious sort that exists.

It’s almost like a global trade war would be bad for businesses.
