The irony of your comment thinking the EU is going to fight this.

The DUNS number is the European Commission standard for business identification; the choice of D&B isn’t random, it literally came from EU requirements.

How does this avoid liability for anything?

Eh, in a case like this, without the 30 second “assume loaded” timeout, the system would be forever stuck in the loading screen for those impacted by the bugs. Sometimes it is better for your users to be optimistic that the system did indeed load.

Over the 15 years from 2008-2023, fatality rate per 100 million VMT has largely been stable, maybe increased some. I think that qualifies as not having recent wins.

you're going to trust the person who started the thread with no idea what happened to the company and then jumped to conclusions based on LinkedIn?

I understand your belief that One Zone implies less expensive, but I’m staunchly in favor of them having it in the name so people know that their data is in a single AZ. The storage class succinctly summarizes faster with lower availability.

> developers don't taking any time to optimize, lazy load, cache, minimize dependencies...

I built much more performant apps without lazy loading or caching when using html and a sprinkle of JS.

Not sure how that’s the fault of MacOS

For those building on AWS with VPC per service and using PrivateLink for connections between services, the whole IP conflict problem just evaporates. Admittedly, you’re paying some premiums to Amazon for that convenience.

Sure, but the point of Chapter 11 is to restructure so you can hopefully get back to operating profitably.

See https://alphastruxure.com/news-press-release/emtoc-microgrid... for an example of on-site hydrogen production.

> doesn't care if humans all die

His last slide literally says “best hope for a long-term future for humanity”. That’s literally the opposite of what you’re claiming.

I’m sorry, but your comment mixes two different types of dictionaries. You talk about “official” meanings which would be a prescriptive dictionary telling you the way you are allowed to use a word. But the dictionaries that include “figuratively” in their definitions are clearly descriptive, presenting all the ways words are commonly used.

You can’t take a descriptive dictionary and then claim it is prescriptive.

> I wasn't sure of the ethics of skewing the odds against your customers like this anyway.

This is interesting because I don’t think anyone would view the store as unethical for continuing to sell tickets from a roll when they know there have already been X winners from that role and therefore customer odds have gone down.

> Obama’s defense secretary

Obama wasn’t president in 2008, not sure why you are mentioning him.

That is one of the purposes of USAID, but that’s been defunded too.

Ground source heat pumps are generally considered to be “geothermal”.

In the case of FFTs, no. Which is why I prefer the term Fourier space. I don’t like frequency domain because I frequently work with 3-D and 5–D FFTs while I’ve always felt frequency is connected to single dimension FFT.

> there aren't already dozens of great apps that dedupe.

Most of those delete rather than use the features of APFS.

I can point to plenty of companies that have rewritten products at scale. That said, specifically relevant to the article, I believe Shopify and GitHub continue to run Ruby on Rails.

The big difference with Makefiles is that git hooks can’t be committed to the repo. Hook managers allow hooks to be shared and updated across a team.

Kobo is owned by Rakuten who used to own Overdrive/Libby.

Based on the thread, you can build it from the source code and telemetry won’t be enabled…

I don’t think this is sad at all. And I’m not sure how this can be described as bringing computer todo to paper.

No one other than the organizer needs anything Apple.

most of it doesn't cost any money. I believe "free" is an accurate description.

Half the point of the order is Trump’s admin wants gendered language. That is:

Pregnant person -> pregnant woman

Pregnant people -> pregnant women

I mean, hosting downloads that have been compressed with this seems fine. I have the original, I just want a smaller version for those downloading.

I highly doubt Matt Haughey is correct about pulsepoint being the source of this information. The source was almost certainly services that scan the public radio broadcast of emergency communications. As a first correction, pulsepoint isn’t a company. It is a nonprofit. Obviously nonprofits can sell data, but it is clear Haughey didn’t go very deep in his research to get such a basic item wrong.
