I am not so sure honestly. You can still wreck a codebase if you don't plan because the ai can make assumptions you don't want, or as other people say it's all a matter of taste

There's a few car dealerships that still use databases from the 80s. As for why they haven't migrated, I'd guess must be reasons I'd assume at this point it's a choice they have made

You're trying to create and sell a version of dos box? These companies have not replaced their computers because to the user there is no separation between the computer and the machine it controls. So the computer will be updated along with the equipment, which is not connected to the internet or a network anyways so it's not a cybersecurity risk. For the user, if it runs fine, there's no need to update just the computer, and the computer is updated along with the machine

In other words, these are embedded systems.

Finally npus can be like cuda. Why did Intel limit themselves to openvino? Didn't want to take on the burden of something like cuda? Maybe they want to separate consumer and business NPUs from data center products which use oneapi which is more like cuda

YouTube already does it autonomously with seemingly no legal consequences for them because you agree to it in their tos

This was not my experience at all. Someone on the bitchat android commented with a virus, reported it and was taken down 2 hours later

In central America for example I went to Panama's book fair and you could see old books for sale. There's a lot of fear among booksellers that a book will not sell, because they purely resell them so any losses fall entirely on booksellers. They do not have any partnerships with publishers

I failed a few days ago to use the npu with openvino and llama.cpp. I will try again with this and hopefully open source it. Thanks

Of course I will do everything on Linux. Might contribute back

That's an American take. In Latin America they sit in boxes and you can see it, because the pages will have been discolored after so many years of sitting somewhere waiting to be sold. They're only recycled if they're given away at book exchange events and no one wants them.

They sat in boxes

They don't pay for it continuously. They post it once as a LinkedIn post or a recruiter does it either in LinkedIn or elsewhere. They either don't pay for it or pay for it once if a recruiter does it

Nokia didn't adapt because of cost cutting. Their engineers wanted to get into smartphones asap. Android could have died at the hands of Symbian which phone manufacturers preferred, but it was led by nokia and it was fragile

Airlines and state owned companies seem to be the exception

No this is not common sense. No company in LATAM has 10000 people. Large companies just aren't a thing here. Most companies here are the 50 people companies you mention so the normal thing is to hire occasionally. And LATAM never had an industrial revolution so software positions are just rare unless the company is larger than the local average. If you do find one, it's not a pure one or is service oriented, not to build a product. What I mean is, building a technological product is rare let alone as a product company in LATAM and most technical positions are service or outsourcing oriented. If you find a technical product role like being a mobile developer, it's often not at a company that offers a technological product but a service in another industry like a bank

What country is it?

So you should apply to old job postings? Consensus in LATAM seems to be, they just forgot to take them down and they already have someone or in Latin America if you repost the same opening over and over the consensus seems to be the company is toxic they have a turnover problem, maybe you should say outright you're looking for 10 people

Well yes, it's no different from breaching an SLA agreement.

You are not buying something and expecting it to be what's on the tin? Aka what the benchmarks show?

That's because the users don't care about the licence. They did try to take down a porn Lora repo on hugging face. The trick is, don't say you're using minimax, and you can make porn with it.

They're trying to cash in but this is just sad

Also in other countries like Panama, people are pressing politicians to crack down on theft and the most stolen things are wallets and phones. So by permanently locking the bootloader, manufacturers avoid as much liability worldwide as possible. Avoiding legal liability worldwide is why phone manufacturers want phones to be as locked down as possible.

This is what phone manufacturers do. Very few use vanilla AOSP with just Google mobile services and their own hardware drivers.

I think the average person doesn't know they can use the find my phone feature on Android to lock their phone. When their phone is stolen they just get sad and call it a day and get another one. Maybe report it to police if they care in their country if police don't care, they just get another phone the day after.

I would say pins are even less secure because people usually set it up as something like their birthday and thieves also often simultaneously steal some id card in a wallet which has exactly that.

Normally the codes would be downloaded automatically from a server but sometimes the server would go down due to negligence because it would be owned by the school and well, student's laptops would start getting locked and they would have to go to a specific office somewhere in the city to get an unlock code from the it admin

I would think they are guessing most people's passwords are weak or something. Like a screen pattern is weak, can be broken in just 300k attempts or maybe less because people use the same patterns and people can't be bothered to use passphrases.

It could be disabled from the bios somehow if you knew the bios password or the bios could be reflashed with a programming Clip directly on the bios flash chip itself.

The token budget isn't to remove Google it's to create drivers for individual phone hardware, which phone and chip manufacturers keep closed source. Also it would be used to find exploits to unlock permanently locked bootloaders

Any discussion about this is shut down. I just read an article https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckqxvy98x578o In the UK according to the BBC, politicians are pressing Samsung and apple to make stolen phones bricks. Samsung in response said that they have implemented several security features for this purpose. I think Samsung considers removing OEM unlocking a security feature according to the bootloader unlock hall of shame.

Intel used to do the same with their anti theft technology aka Intel theft deterrent on their classmate PCs, so students had to enter unlock codes from an IT admin every 3 months or every say 200 boots to prevent the computer from being locked at the bios level preventing it from booting an OS, and there was an update which disabled that functionality permanently. And you would be warned when you had around 50 boots left to get the unlock code.

Phone manufacturers had Symbian which became open source

It's a net loss. Less data and in their view makes development harder.
