Just exclude Russia? It's not like they give a damn about their climate commitments anyway

Russia's like that one kid that attacked another kid, is now having a bad day, and trying to make everyone else's life miserable for it

Der Gesetzesentwurf des Parlaments sah ein Verbot für KI-Anwendungen wie eine automatisierte Gesichtserkennung vor. Die EU-Staaten beharrten aber auf Ausnahmen zum Schutz der nationalen Sicherheit, zur Verteidigung und für andere militärische Zwecke.

Die nun erzielte Einigung sieht Beschränkungen für die Nutzung biometrischer Identifizierungssysteme durch die Strafverfolgungsbehörden vor.

They are fighting a war of attrition, that will last for years until Russia yields

You are forgetting next year's US elections, unfortunately. But if that doesn't go the wrong way, the Vietnam scenario is indeed somewhat realistic, with the difference that Ukraine is a lot closer to Russia than Vietnam was to the US

Musk "picked" the wrong fighting grounds here. I'm pretty sure he will lose even at the supreme court eventually. And each day this drags on is a win for the unions

I once collaborated with an exceptionally talented programmer who seemed so engrossed in his addiction that he would invent challenges where there were none, presumably to make his work more engaging and bearable. However, this often led to incomplete projects because once the stimulating aspects were finished, he struggled to find the motivation to continue. Clearly, this behavior was extreme and detrimental.

I think a lot of devs can relate to that

You should only pay full price if the release quality is great. And even then, there's a reason why #patientgamers is a trend. You save on hardware cost, game cost & get better quality games with extra post release content

Sounds like a huge subsidy for existing big business to me...

"In the design plans for the system, the word 'main' was used inconsistently between the device that sends the electric signals, and the device that receives the signals," NASA said in a written statement. "On the signal side, 'main' meant the main parachute. In contrast, on the receiver side 'main' was used as a reference to a pyrotechnic that fires to release the parachute canister cover and deploy the drogue.

"Engineers connected the two mains, causing the parachute deployment actions to occur out of order," NASA said.

Metal and plastic is easy, controlling cloth is hard

The funniest part is that Bezos got sued into paying Musk by his own shareholders

 

Which smartphones will get Android 14? Do we know?

 

Hello and welcome to all fellow reddit refugees. Contents shall be focused on Advent of Code only:

Advent of Code is an annual Advent calendar of small programming puzzles for a variety of skill sets and skill levels that can be solved in any programming language you like.

https://adventofcode.com/

 

Maybe a bit seasonal, but the Advent of Code sub was quite popular on reddit. I suggest we make it a thing here on programming.dev.

 

I saw a feature request for searching comments inside a post in this community, about 4 weeks old.

Seems like a pretty key feature that is still missing. Is this planned currently?
