Russische Angreifer klauen Quellcode von Microsoft
Seit Monaten greifen staatlich geförderte Cyberkriminelle die Systeme von Microsoft an. Das dauert auch jetzt noch an, dabei konnten Daten entwendet werden.

I am so angry at how certain politicians are combining with misinformation/disinformation sources to create huge confusion and misplaced anger and media hyperbole about the carbon tax in BC and Canada, especially when it comes to fuel for "normal" cars and trucks driven by "normal" people.
If you believe the carbon tax is the only or even largest reason gas prices are rising, then you have been lied to.
Here are some carbon tax and fuel facts in BC:

Of course, I can't start a day without being awfully angry about some shit.
So #Gentoo suddenly undoes USE=lzma [and USE=zstd] that used to be enabled by default in 23.0 profiles, apparently based on "consensus" on the mailing lists. The "consensus" boils down to one conspiracy theorist developer complaining, and being supported by 3 users whose Gentoo contributions boil down to having to express their opinions on everything on the mailing list.
This isn't only a problem, because Gentoo is letting itself be controlled by a vocal minority. This is a problem, because we've enabled something that can affect program output, told everyone to upgrade and rebuild their systems, then pulled the carpet from under them.
Wait, did that random app start using LZMA compression now that you've enabled it? Well, bad luck, you won't be able to open your files anymore. Surely, there's no better #security than not being able to do anything!
Unfortunately, sys-apps/kmod had explicit IUSE= lzma by default for a while now, so there's still a risk that you'll be able to boot your system. That's not good for security at all!

I haven't used stackoverflow much, just had two answers I'd posted there. I deleted them both, and got the same email others have got.. Probably the most passive-aggressive email I've ever received.
By the way if you delete your account, they anonymise your posts. AFAICT, that's against the creative commons attribution share-alike license of the posts.

Google's Education VP wants us to believe AI is the classroom's new calculator, but this is a terrible analogy:
1. We know how calculators produce their results.
2. You can check a calculator's answer using pretty much the same algorithm it uses.
3. Rare floating point errors aside, calculators do not invent false answers.
4. Calculators are based on math principles; LLMs are based on no principles.

At the hospital ER today some angry dude walked out of the waiting room and up to the nurse at the triage desk:
“I've been here for 25 minutes! How long is this going to take? ____ is not feeling any better!!”.
The nurse, who was very nicely helping us check in, and had helped the dozen or so others there, turned off the smile and just looked at him... dead pan stare… and said.
"Yes?”
Angry-dude said some other stuff, then turned around and went back to the w…
