Honestly, I think that this was a horrid read. It felt so unfocused, shallow and at times contradictory.

For example, at the top it talked about how software implementation has the highest adoption rate while code review/acceptance has the lowest, yet it never really talks about why that is apart from some shallow arguments (which I will come back later), or how to integrate AI more there.

And it never reached any depth, as any topic only gets grazed shortly before moving to the next, to the point where the pitfalls of overuse of AI (tech debt, security issues, etc.) are mentioned, twice, with no apparent acknowledgement of its former mention, and never mentioned how these issues get created nor show any examples.

And what I think is the funniest contradiction is that from the start, including the title, the article pushes for speed, yet near the end of the article, it discourages this thinking, saying that pushing dev teams for faster development will lead to corner cutting, and that for a better AI adoption one shouldn’t focus on development speed. Make up your damn mind before writing the article!

Ich Stimme zu, dass das “einfachste” Indiz bei den Beispielen die Stimme ist. Hier kommt es oft zu Stimmverzerrungen, die stark nach Dekodierfehler klingen, aber nur die Stimme betreffen.

Was auch auffällt sind Hintergrundcharakter. Ein gutes Beispiel ist die falsche Autoexpo. Wenn man die Szenen mit dem Mann mit dem Kinderwagen genauer ansieht, sind die Posen vom Mann und Kinderwagen immer sehr ähnlich. Des weiteren verhält sich der Mann sehr ungewöhnlich. Menschen verhalten sich sehr eigenartig wenn sie wissen, dass sie gefilmt werden, und man merkt dass sie oftmals achtsam die Kamera ignorieren während sie dennoch Aufmerksamkeit der Kamera geben. Teilweise schnelle Bewegungen durch die Anspannung, was die KI immer noch schlecht imitieren kann.

Generell ist die beste Strategie skeptisch zu Medien zu sein und die Inhalte zu hinterfragen.

Fun fact about Ayn Rand: BioShock was partly inspired by her philosophy, or rather how disastrous it would be.

Another fun fact about her: at the end of her life, she got financial aid from the government under a fake name.

Funnily enough, AFAIK this is also reflected in the total webpages on the internet. There is an extraordinary amount of German webpages compared to other non-english ones.

EDIT: Third most used language, after English and Spanish.

While it is correct, it doesn’t justify any and all the shady stuff Brave Software Inc. has done.

Uncommon speech patterns and behaviours. People with ASD are more likely to be suspected to be lying when they are telling the truth, due to avoidance of eye contact, lower stress threshold, talking about unnecessary tangents that seem unrelated to the topic and uncommon stress reactions like fawning.

Honestly, as weird as this movie and its premise was, it’s a very interesting and recommendable watch.

Ist ja auch irgendwie klar, wenn du praktisch ein thematisches Einkaufszentrum mit Eintrittspreis machst. Wahrscheinlich hätte das ganze wesentlich besser funktioniert, wenn die für die Attraktionen separat verlangt hätten. Dann wäre es wahrscheinlich ein besser Hangout-Spot für SciFi Fans und ähnlichen geworden.

While I agree that dd can be easily used, it still is a dumb command (as in its only purpose is to write and nothing else), which can result in some issues regarding validating the integrity of the installation, at least for a beginner.

Furthermore, it can be disastrous if you don’t pay attention to what you type in, as it will happily overwrite anything you type in.

Also, I don’t think that dd alone should be used as a backup, as it might result in inconsistent backups. The best simple backup system, no matter whether you are a beginner or an expert, are snapshots, and maybe using dd to backup those to an external drive to be sure.

I agree that once learning how to use dd programs like BalenaEtcher sort of become more clutter than anything else.

Still, something I would always prefer over dd is Ventoy, simply because not only allows me to easily make an ISO bootable, but allow multiple ISOs to be easily bootable on the same USB stick. I hope it never becomes abandonware.

Win+P allows you to quickly change how your windows works. Win+K brings up the menu to connect to a wireless monitor. Win+L will lock the screen. Win+R will call the “Run…” window.

KDE Plasma also inherits a lot of the shortcuts Windows has. AFAIK MATE/Cinnamon do also share some of the keybinds, but for some reason they use CTRL+ALT instead.

Also fun fact: the Windows key is also called the SUPER key.

Based on what I heard it was mainly cost vs benefit. It was mainly an expensive gimmick, as not only you had to buy more expensive equipment that had its limitations (expensive glasses that had to synchronise with the TV or very narrow fields of 3D), but also had to have channels with 3D (which might’ve cost extra) or more expensive media that was capable of delivering 3D.

While streaming could have been a contributing factor, due to it killing traditional TV channels and basically DVD sales, it seems that overall 3D cinema declined very fast as well. This is probably because how expensive it was for both cinemas and production companies, and production companies often resorted to cheaper alternatives rather than equipment that would actually film in 3D, leading to a much less satisfying effect. So as the 3D effects got shallower, the whole gimmick in theaters died, and probably the whole 3D fad.

I never got into Clue myself, though I blame Clue DVD for that. The premade cases led to a limited replay ability, sure, but due to these cases involving background narratives made you feel like a detective as you piece together alibis through story snippets.

It’s a shame they aren’t producing it anymore for quite some time now.

Both are authentic, with the vinegar variant being the Bavarian/Swabian variant. Not sure where the mayo variant came from however.

Are you sure that a dinosaur laid a chicken egg? Or did a chicken hatch from a dinosaur egg? When does a dinosaur end being a dinosaur and begin being a chicken anyways?

I should have elaborated on it a bit more, my bad.

While it’s true that DDoS is more of an active technology rather than a CYA thing. It does however also act as insurance when it comes to the “blame game”: if your site goes down it’s not your fault but the provider’s fault, meaning you might be able to recoup lost profits through a lawsuit.

Of course the only way to avoid this for the provider is to provide better and stronger systems, which normally would grow homogenous through more customers and/or growing fees for all customers, which would pay for better capacity and stronger protection by itself.

However here we have a client that is a high value target that others might want to take down at all costs. Even if they didn’t sue, a strong enough attack might, alongside naturally expected DDoS on other clients, not only take down this customer’s server, but others as well, which really isn’t something you want, for the reasons stated above. And rapidly increasing security could be not worth it, as it could devolve into an arms race by proxy with a high risk of the customer leaving if you raise their fees to much, leaving you with a system which’s maintenance will now dig into your profits due to a lost big income stream, or make other customers leave if you raise the general fee.

I don’t want TP convince anyone they are not like jerks, but rather highlight why a corporation would do something like this to a (most likely) lucrative client.

I think the main problem is that people try to shoehorn OOP mechanics into everything, leading to code that is hard to understand. Not to mention that this is basically encouraged by companies as well, to look “futuristic”. A great example of this approach going horribly wrong is FizzBuzz Enterprise Edition.

OOP can be great to abstract complex concepts into a more human readable format, especially when it comes to states. But overall it should be used rarely, as it creates a giant code overhead, and only as far as actually needed.
