Auto upload to cloud that someone bas access to. Even Google photos with shared partners will automatically download your partners auto uploaded videos and photos. This should be more than enough until nazis take full control.

Yes, my point stands.

This is not directly on Microsoft as you have to be either ignorant or special kind of stupid to upload your encryption keys to US cloud. The government can request access to any data and a company can’t do anything.

The only way to resist this is to not store anything unencrypted from your customers which is quite doable but clearly microsoft has no interest in this.

I used to do hiring and it has been a solved problem for at least half a century now through trial periods.

I really don’t understand these multi-round interviews - what can you possible learn from them? It’s 2 short interviews -> 2-4 week well paid contract -> employment or not. Works every single time unless you are so disorganized that you simply can’t implement this then lack of talen is really the least of your worries.

Totally and it’s a great illustration how diversification is crucial for any organized system. If we started to diversify earlier we not only would have more economic power now but avoided thounsands of conflicts as well.

Though a bit of optimisim here - seems like we learned this lesson and most countries are taking energy hedging very seriously these days. I don’t think we’ll ever have a new resource like oil again.

I’d agree but oil is absolutely next level to all of that. Entire countries are basically held hostage by energy supply which was never the case before. You could cut off trade and that’s the worst thing you could do but now you can fundamentally disable the entire country as oil is so fundamental to everything.

Oil was such a massive security mistake that we’re still collectively recovering from it.

Appreciate your work!

.ml needs to be defeated as it’s a cesspool of flavored fascists.

Which also led to countless war, murder and torture campaigns.

Fully agree. I’m generally an AI optimist but I don’t understand communicating through AI generated text in any meaningful context - that’s incredibly disrespectful. I don’t even use it at work to talk business with my somewhat large team and I just don’t understand how anyone would appreciate an AI written thank you letter. What a dumb idea.

100% and I’m an early adopter of all decentralized platforms but I still run IT of my all extended family and have a few connections through these platforms so even with my limited use I’m still exposed to so many scams. I can’t imagine what a daily normal user sees, it must be just scam after scam.

There are several domains specific search features like duckduckgo bangs that allow you to directly search popular websites with text like interstellar !imdb - it’s super useful! I think firefox has something like this built in too.

They can’t ban all VPN IPs though

Nice but all I want is actually liability. Meta should be hold liable for each and every single scam ad and here in south-east asia it’s just rampant.

I see nothing but blatant scams, especially on Meta platforms. I don’t mean simple e-commerce scams either where you buy some trash and it never gets sent to you - it’s full on phishing and finance scams.

I just dont understand how are we collectively ok with this - every platform should have the burden of full liability, period. If someone gets their money taken through scam ad not only Meta should pay them back but suffer a 100x fine as well. The unskippable ad is nothing compared to this.

How To Be Perfect by Michael Schur (of The Good Place). I’m kinda sad how little ethics we teach these days and this book is a very good approachable overview of contemporary ethics that would make a huge difference for our society as a whole.

I really want to like the game but haven’t got a single enjoyable match in like 20 I tried. The graphics and environmenta are stunning I just don’t get the gameplay. It’s like first 10 minutes of a battle royale over and over without the rest of it.

Thailand is incredibly welcoming and my favorite place on earth. You’ll have no issues with your transition here though you need to make real money abroad or have good set of skills (like certified teaching) to get local employment.

Thailand visa is very easy. You can get elite visa which is like 12k usd for 5 years.

Very much agree with this argument though it’s not new. IP law has always been a secret weapon against US which is mostly a service economy country.

EU just seems too weak to take advantage of this though

Have you looked into streaming from a desktop? I’m using sunshine/moonlight to stream my video editor from gaming PC to Thinkpad and it works really well! The quality and responsiveness is really good these days to the point where it’s hard to even tell it’s a stream.

This is a common security fallacy as sure you might not drop your laptop like you’re not crashing your car but once you hit something it’s nice to have airbags right? People pay several thousand dollars to recover hard drives of dropped laptops and can you imagine being in such stressful position? So a bit of safety goes a long way.
