In the UK, you can get your license revoked for speeding. You can lose your license if you’re going a lot over the speed limit. If you’re going a bit slower you can get 3 or 6 points and if you get more than 12 points you also lose your license.
It doesn’t seem to do a huge amount to discourage speeding in my experience.
We had that in our DOS C code base. We didn’t have a debugger so we had a function that output debug messages to console if the debug flag was set.
There were more than a few instances where a crash would stop happening if we added debug messages.
We put it down to the linker rearranging modules to fit in memory as our exe was more than a megabyte in size.
If she were a celebrity would we feel the same?
I would, yes. She’s done absolutely nothing that warrants this treatment.
The only people who should have any ill will towards her are those that are directly affected by her actions. That should be the case even if she was famous before this.
It’s not your fault. I can’t see the one picture post that I made myself because it’s on imgur.
It’s so annoying that I need to use a VPN to see this in the UK.
I sometimes suspect that I am actually an AI. I’ve always struggled with captchas and I comment my code exactly as you’ve just described.
To play devil’s advocate:
The Netflix equivalent of this is that the show just disappears (the Marvel shows) or you get the first seasons and not the last or even the last and not the first (at one time Prime had part of Lucifer and Netflix had the rest).
The only reason that it went from free to paid (instead of just disappearing) is that they lost the licence for streaming it under Prime Video but they didn’t lose the licence for selling it.
They’ll probably say that it’s for the environment and that you should use a reusable bag for it.
Companies are good at doing things to benefit the environment when it also benefits their bottom line.
There’s a few Ts in that comment. There are one or two people who replace “th” with that symbol in the communities that I subscribe to.
I also find it mildly infuriating.
I’ve suddenly been getting regular Windows notifications from Adobe asking me to set them as the default PDF app.
Very annoying when I use Adobe reader once a month or so to sign documents.
They spent billions of dollars to develop and train the AIs that they use. They’re not going to remove it for fucking up someone’s YouTube channel.
They wouldn’t remove it even if it caused someone’s death (which it probably has considering that they have been shown to be very bad at therapy and that people go to them for therapy).
You don’t for the one time codes because there is a standard that is supported by many authenticator apps.
App based 2FA is better. Either the app generates a time based code that you enter into the site or the site sends a push notification to the app asking you to verify the login attempt.
Passkeys are good too as they replace the password completely and leave the 2FA part to the device.
It’s better than nothing and some people would really struggle to do other types of 2FA.
I find this very odd because Azure DevOps is hardly ever down in our experience.
This is the same as all the games that advertise themselves as having no ads but they do have ads for in app purchases.
For some reason they don’t consider those as being ads.
Damn if that’s the case, my paranoia is gonna go overdrive.

Btw, has anyone here actually got hacked? I feel like the media always overexaggerates “hacking” and its mostly people just using weak passwords (user error), not really hacking.
It’s more likely to be that they found out your login credentials, yes.
They might find a site with crappy security where they can try many usernames and passwords without getting blocked or they might actually hack the site and get the password list.
Having a strong password, not reusing passwords and enabling MFA goes a long way towards protecting against those scenarios.
The AI Fix podcast had a piece about how someone let an AI agent do the coding for them but had a disaster because he gave it access to the production database.
Very funny.

So when mum calls to ask if we need milk, she’sa villain!
It’s all about levels.
It’s entirely different to have a 30 second conversation about picking up milk compared to joining a work meeting.
Especially when that work meeting is a video call that is distracting the driver (they are looking at the phone in the picture).
There are definitely those that would ban all phone calls when driving.
Deterministic means for the same input you always get the same output.
For AI it would be if you ask it a question multiple times using exactly the same words you would get the same answer.
