The point about the Bechdel test is that it’s such an incredibly low bar, and yet most fiction fail at it.

I will have a heart attack if I can feel ur anus in my pocket.

Even if a fix was discovered quickly it wouldn’t prevent the problem that it must be manually fixed on each computer. In this case a fix was discovered quickly even without access to source code.

Just having more eyes on the source code won’t do much. To discover errors like these the program must be properly tested on actual devices. This part obviously went wrong on Crowdstrike’s side. Making the code open source won’t necessarily fix this. People aren’t going to voluntarily try every cutting edge patch on their devices before it goes live.

I also doubt any of the forks would get much traction. IT departments aren’t going to jump to the next random fork, especially when the code has kernel access. If we can’t trust Crowdstrike, how can we trust new randos?

I doubt it. Few people are volunteering their time reading pull requests of random repos. It probably went fast from pull request to deployment, so there would be no time for anyone external to read.

The only thing open source would’ve done is to give us a faster explanation of why it happened after the fact.

Yes, I’ve seen this resume before.

I think it’s ironic. The guy is quite influential in his field, so he doesn’t really need a resume.

Chrome has fuckton more of Google telemetry, so it evens out.

I think the reason why people complain about politics is:

• They want to find an easy scapegoat. They didn’t like the movie, and it’s easy to blame one aspect when the actual reason is far more complicated. It’s like how people think Jar Jar Binks ruined Episode 1 when he was just one small part of the movie.
• Politics can often be badly implemented in movies. Not all politics are black and white where there are obvious good and bad sides. The characters of Princess Mononoke, while it’s clearly on the environmentalist side, shares multiple perspectives on the conflict.
• It’s easier to notice something when it’s bad, so people tend to notice the politics when it’s bad.

One of my first Ghibli movies and also my favorite. Saw it first time on an anime showing at a local cinema. Such a great adventure epic.

Now I want to watch it again.

A new hope started with blood line. It was established out of the gate that Luke’s father was a Jedi knight and a good friend of Obi Wan.

Force Awakens and Last Jedi seemed to go in the direction that Rey and Snoke are unrelated to previous blood lines, but nope, it’s all Palpatine.

Tell airbus to use the proper term “intellectually disabled” instead

Is this the guy from Skibidi Toilet?

Even without that extra finger it still has that uncanny AI vibe

This doesn’t sound like a thing enterprises are going to accept. It’s like spyware but with extra buzzwords.

I know people here love Linux, but I think most IT departments in the world would go for Apple first.

They will say it’s for “security reasons”

Perfect is the enemy of good

Windows95man was robbed

That wasn’t real communism. Everybody’s equal under real communism.

Hetero people would get executed too!

That XKCD is almost 18 years old and is still as relevant.

Freedom is obviously when I can be an asshole without repercussion.
