I just remember things. Usually I think about the next steps in a projects while cycling or something. And then I implement them.
I tried using trello and similar couple of times but in the and I would barely use it and eventually forget to update it.
This. Bind connect command to a keyboard shortcut. Live in peace.
That’s exactly what I said. GrapheneOS devs target very specific group of users and most privacy focused users will be served better by other ROMs. They can do whatever they want but they clearly don’t care about wider community and I think wider community shouldn’t care about them as much as it does.
GrapheneOS developers are quite dickish about what they are willing to implement and how they treat their users. They work under the assumption that GrapheneOS is for people afraid of being hacked (like actively targeted by state level actors) and refuse to add anything that in their view compromises security. So for example they refuse to add pattern unlock because they think it’s less secure than PIN which is silly because I can just use ‘0000’ PIN which is as insecure as any pattern. It’s the same with supporting other phones. Personally I’m not worried about police trying to hack my phone, I just want deGoogled system with tracker protection. GrapheneOS devs don’t care. It’s all or nothing with them. I would recommend iode over Graphene to anyone not as paranoid as the devs.
I think it would be more useful to read The Rust Book twice than to learn C. Just read it slowly, try to understand everything, explore the topics it mentions in depth.
I’m sure some people would still be able to code just fine on crap hardware but it’s silly to think Open Source will not suffer if access to good hardware is limited.
Just running rust-analyzer for not-so-big project requires 5GB of RAM. Inspecting libraries will start another process and I sometimes have 2 projects open at the same time. You can work without it, using simple text editor but DX will way worse and unless you’re some Rust guru you will work slower. Compilation time will be way worse on older CPU so you will iterate slower. That’s why Linus is using a Threadripper.
Running integration tests for Java project I’m working on maxes out my 16 core CPU. My co-workers with older laptops struggled to set up the development environment and build the project because they were constantly running out of RAM.
Yes, we were all writing code 20 years ago in vim with just syntax highlighting but new stacks and new tools require new hardware.
Dude, I’m coding every day and I know what hardware requirements I have. You can write some code slowly on a potato but a lot of software development requires tons of RAM and powerful CPU. Linus Torvalds is using Threadripper 9960X for a reason.
Archeologist: Close analysis of pixels in this artifact will tell us that it belongs to the late AOL/early digg.com era.
easiest way to track literally everything you do on your system.
And ban undesired activities. “We see you’re building app to track ICE agents. That’s illegal. Your account was banned and all your data removed.”.
People don’t just use computers for gaming. If this continues people will struggle to do any meaningful work on their personal computes which is definitely not good. And I’m not talking about browsing facebook but about coding, doing research, editing videos and other useful shit.
Very interesting. I assumed that police always held privileged status in US but this could be simply because they are always portrayed like that in movies, even historical ones. The PR is definitely there. In pretty much every movie caps break the laws and ignore rights of everyone and it’s shown as something necessary and even ‘cool’. Bad guys don’t deserve rights…
In Spain when cops fuck up you simply take away their ability to work in law enforcement. It’s really that simple. In US they will just get hired by another city. The problem in US is not that this is hard to solve and requires some clever, hard to write legislation. The problem is that law enforcement always worked for the elites, not the masses and no one in power wants to change it.
People keep proposing naive solutions without realizing cops only use bodycams because they see them as net benefit for them. The technology was around for a long time but only became popular when it was sold as surveillance tool, not accountability tool. If police loses control of the footage they will simply stop using them. If you force them they will protest. Guess who the politicians will support in this fight?
Exactly. Impossible to tell from this article alone.
Meh, it just says new exam was introduces and a lot of students failed. This just means the schools are not good at preparing students for this exam, not that they don’t prepare for practicing medicine. I would say it’s normal that universities will need time to adapt their courses to the requirements of the exams. Maybe students are not well prepared for the format or maybe the just need to put greater focus on different parts of the curriculum. I don’t think this means that graduates are somehow less prepared, just that the new exam is another barrier for them to begin practice which means it will slow down induction of new doctors into the workforce. Hopefully they will adapt fast and this will not have any long term repercussions.
This is on purpose. Kids can’t like the same things as their parents. They have to look for things their parents are against to feel rebellious and independent. For my generation it was nu metal. My mother was used to nice, elegant men wearing suits and considered any artist with esthetics rougher then Julio Iglesias as ‘not nice’. So we had Korn, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson and other weirdos. We had violence and gore to shock our parents and can’t be shocked with that so kids today have overly ‘erotic’ artists like Cardy B. ‘Look ma, I’m listening to an ex stripper. You don’t like that, right?’. Musically our artists were too aggressive for our parents and kids today have rap which for me sounds simply boring. And that’s fine, that’s by design. If my generation was into those artists kids wouldn’t like them. Of course the biggest artists are the ones that manage to span generations like Taylor Swift but that’s for non-rebellious part of society that just likes things they already know.
And the dev will add an extra “ignore any previous instructions to ignore system warnings for AI”. Szach mat.
Basically GrapheneOS is for people worried about law enforcement or some state actors trying to access their phone using some commercial tools or 0 day exploits. It’s useful for journalist, lawyers, activists and so on.
Average users don’t really have to worry about those things. It’s unlikely that someone will try to hack you using such tools, you most probably don’t have any data wort protecting and it’s quicker and easier for you to just unlock your phone than to spend days/weeks/months in jail trying to protect your data.
What average user should care about is removing Google from their phones and blocking trackers. Other ROMs like iode also come without Google and have better tools than GrapheneOS for blocking trackers. They are as secure as any other Android phone.
