I recently had to work with XSLT (may it's inventor burn in hell for their crimes).
That's pretty much programming in XML. It's probably the worst possible thing.

Interesting how they went for an IoT SoC (Qualcomm QCM 6490), instead for an SoC that's actually meant for usage in phones.
They probably did this to be able to get longer Android updates. As a side effect, that means it natively supports desktop Ubuntu and Windows 11 IoT Enterprise.
On the other hand, this is pretty much the only phone using this SoC. (There are three models by a totally unknown brand from India that use the same SoC.)
It's going to be interesting to see whether that's an advantage or a disadvantage.
A typo that was translated in kind.
In English it says [Fir], which obviously is a typo, but in German it was translated to [Tanne] which means "fir tree".
While the English version is close to the real thing ([Fr]) and thus could slip through if you are careful, there is no way any decent translator wouldn't ask for confirmation when they are translating "Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fir tree, Sat"
I love that story! I tell it every time someone tries to sell me on anarchism.
Christiana was an old military complex that the government gave up on, so anarchist squatters moved in.
Soon they realized, that they needed some way to decide matters that concerned everyone. So they formed small councils, and in these councils they each chose some people to represent them in one big council. These people weren't elected politicians, just people chosen to represent them. They then voted on issues, and no, that wasn't a form of democracy. It's still anarchism.
Then then realized, that the upkeep of common areas and infrastructure costs money, so they required that everyone paid their share. That obviously weren't taxes. Just mandatory contributions.
When organized crime started to spread, they decided on some mandatory rules (you read right: these weren't laws, just mandatory rules that you had to keep if you didn't want to face punishment). Then they chose some strong men that should make sure the rules were followed. No, not police men. Just concerned strong men.
They worked together with Kopenhagen's police. Basically, they'd call the cops and then drag the offenders outside of Christiania to the waiting cops.
Part of the rules were that it wasn't allowed to consume hard drugs or to wear motor cycle gang attire.
So in the end, they had no politicians, no government, no taxes and no police force. Just things that where basically identical to these things. The only thing they really don't have is a prison, because they outsourced that to Kopenhagen.
Anarchism directly leads to a form of government, no matter how you call it.
If you want an opposite example, how anarchism lead to an anarcho-capitalistic nightmare, where the community decended into a rule by organized crime, google the Kowloon Walled City. It's equally interesting.
In the full email he goes on to tell the engineer what a micron is.
I guess, he just read that word somewhere and now feels cool that he knows it.
It would be cute if he was a junior manager, but this way it's just sad.
If there only was an easy way of understanding what employees wanted... But alas, since there isn't, forcing people to do something and then measuring how many of them resign seems to be the best way to figure it out.
The problem is discoverability. And that's where I don't get why anyone in their right mind would use Discord for stuff like that.
Say, you have Github, a forum or even a subreddit for your project.
Somebody asks a question, you answer it.
Somebody else has the same question. Either they are intelligent enough to find it themselves or they ask and you just link your old answer. Done.
On Discord, it's basically impossible to find an answer that is more than two screens full of posts ago. So you have to keep answering the very same questions all the time.
Well, if you ask e.g. ChatGPT for the lyrics to a song or page after page of a book, and it spits them out 1:1 correct, you could assume that it must have had access to the original.
WIll this also affect all other .ml domains? Or is this some anti-piracy thing? (I don't know fmhy, but from the name I guess it's about piracy.)
As evidenced by the brief moment in history when Netflix was all that and it drove video piracy all but to extinction.
So they are literally forced labour camps? How can anyone in the US still complain about Russia? (Just as a disclaimer, this is not a defence of Russia. I think the conditions there are terrible, but the US doesn't seem far behind, if at all)
Sure the designers of this monstrosity thought, "There are only black people living there, so it's a win-win" -.-
