As a Brit… Government policy is doing a pretty good job. Everything is making running an independent site completely infeasible. They’re legislating as if the only people who run sites are big tech corporations who have money to burn on compliance.
I’m assuming the duck’s on top
They probably are. They’re trying to make sure it hasn’t leaked onto archive.is.
Well he found out about the sub-prime mortgage fiasco by looking at the public filings that nobody bothers reading. All of the companies involved are public companies that have to file accounts. He’ll be tracing what’s going on and painting himself a picture.
Not sure if it’s exactly the same kit but you can get that for £300 in the UK.
You realise avoiding the anxiety is worse than dealing with it.
I see you like to party with Bernie.
Why are the American religious right so fixated on the rapture? It’s a death cult sprawling across the nation like a cancer.
My thoughts are “Why do they need one?”. It’s not like UEFI stops you doing anything.
UBIOS’s unique features over UEFI include increased support for chiplets and other heterogeneous computing use-cases, such as multi-CPU motherboards with mismatching CPUs, something UEFI struggles with or does not support. It will also better support non-x86 CPU architectures such as ARM, RISC-V, and LoongArch, the first major Chinese operating system.

I would say this is about increasing the level of control of the platform, not about technological issues.
Edit: For example, here’s the RISC-V UEFI specification.
Government ministers are bound by collective responsibility and so if Milliband states something definitively it is taken as government policy. All other members of government would be expected to say the same thing.
So the weasel words here are because it’s not agreed government policy that they should leave X. I expect they haven’t discussed it. If he’s more definitive it would potentially expose a split in opinion within the government (Oh the horror!).
Understand the code words. His opinion is that they should leave. This is his way of making it a topic for discussion in the government.
Agree with everything you said, but if you’re going to ask me about anything, then the thing I do 40 hours a week every week should be a safe subject. If I’m interviewing a chef, I’ll probably ask them about working in a kitchen. I may even ask them to demonstrate something.
I think it’s a reasonable expectation.
The key thing is to be as relaxed as you can be. Interviewing is a skill you learn, so go for a few interviews that you’re not as interested in. Try not to go for your dream job first, because you’ll be stressed to hell. Get a couple under your belt first if you can.
Interviews aren’t an exam. They’re a conversation.
I don’t prepare, because it’s testing a task that I do pretty much everyday. If I can’t do it on-demand I don’t see how I can call myself a programmer. That said, I do have some strategies.
Often the interviewer isn’t looking for people able to recite detail in the documentation. They are looking at the quality of the code you’ll produce. So I concentrate on explaining my approach to the problem, rather than the code.
…and so on. If it’s on a whiteboard I’ll often write in pseudo-code that looks something like a language, but I’ll state that I’m not trying to write perfect, compiler ready code.
I let them guide me to the level of detail they are looking for.
If it turns out they want to score points on me for missing a bracket, or getting the order of arguments wrong, then I take that as a negative against the company. Interviews go both ways, and you’re looking for people you can work with too. So if they’re going to nitpick in an interview they’re probably going to be horrible to work with day-to-day.
You asked the equivalent of “What’s a limey bastard?” at a British pub. It’s quite funny, but basically everything you kicked off answers your question.
Safer than ChatGPT you say? Wow…
That isn’t a high bar.
The solution will always be communication. You have to tell them that they are pushing you away; how they are hurting you; how you can’t live with the hate.
Keep away from the talking points. Talk about your feelings with them. Talk about your fear that if they continue you will lose them. If they still care about you, the thought that they are causing you pain should be horrific to them. Tell them that you fear losing them to hate.
…but keep away from the facts. Don’t try to prove them wrong. If they bring stuff up… “I don’t care if that’s true or not. It makes you angry, and full of hate, and I can’t live with that level of hate in my life”.
Share emotions. Don’t worry who’s right or wrong. It’ll be hard, but that’s the only way to start. Their rational brain is corrupted. It doesn’t work and appealing to it won’t work.
I’m with you. I think the markets are going to be demanding results very soon now. When they do…Nvidia, Meta, Google, X, Microsoft stock prices are all going to go into free-fall.
I’m a little confused by some of the discussion. Surely the problems they’re talking about with variations in the test system also apply to windows. You result can be affected by:
Linux is the same, but they seem to be more concerned about it. Can someone explain?
How steep is the learning curve there? Should I just go with Plex and keep it simple?
You’ve got it the wrong way round. Jellyfin is simple. I’ve never understood Plex.
I certainly remember PS2 consoles being used like that. The cell processor was impressive.
