In a glass half full perspective, it won’t send all your data to Google’s servers. The part they are not saying is that the data even remotely related to your query is going to be sent to Google anyway. They are claiming they will delete the data after 72 hours, which I believe they will for now, but knowing them, there’s probably going to be a sneaky policy update in a couple of years.

I wish more CEOs would pick up more buzzwords like “Blameless Post Mortems” and SRE, and less buzzwords like “AI” or “web 3.0”.

Of the SI system. The metric system started with cgs (centimeter, gram, second) and evolved from there.

They were all done by scientists or engineers.

The meter was defined based on what they calculated as 1 millionth of the length of Paris’ meridian.

The second was 1/86400 of a day, which makes sense with the angle/circle nomenclature on the clock.

The gram was initially set to be the mass of 1cm³ of water at 4°C - which is why 1l of water ≈ 1kg.

There’s nothing in the SI system that says ratios have to be between base units. Units that involve mass are defined against the kilogram not the gram.

Is it so surprising that the mindset that makes people unable to face changes in one area of their lives also makes them unable to face changes in other areas?

You don’t even need to go at a low level. Lots of programmers forget that their applications are not running in a piece of paper in general.

My team at work once had an app running Kubernetes and it had a memory leak, so its pod would get terminated every few hours. Since there were multiple pods, this had effectively no effect on the clients.

The app in question was otherwise “done”, there were no new features needed, and we hadn’t seen another bug in years.

When we transferred the ownership of the app to another team, they insisted on finding and fixing the memory leak. They spent almost one month to find the leak and refactor the app. The practical effect was none - in fact due to the normal pod scheduling they didn’t even buy that much lifetime to each individual pod.

Next time just shoot an movie industry exec, the sentence will be the same. /s (mandatory: don’t actually shoot anyone please)

x11 doesn’t support HDR at all, so even with HDR support still not being fully mature in KDE and GNOME that’s a argument for wayland.

Isn’t process explorer the GUI process manager on windows? Can we stop recommending cli tools by default? GNOME’s and KDE’s default process managers are more than enough for 99.999% of people coming from Windows.
