I find DeepSeek flash incredible for the price and good in general if it has good plans. I will typically plan using Opus or GLM, then implement with DSF


Apple often plays a game where they blend security and business interests, but represent it only as a security interest.

They own the OS and could do for private relay like what they do for screen recording: when it's in use, overlay an unhideable visual indicator that it's that it's in use. Make it visually obvious when it turns off.


> There's no organized political movement trying to tell people that seat belts and speed limits are immoral

I rode in a lot of cars when I lived in Eastern Ukraine, 9/10 times or more the seatbelts had been removed or tucked behind the seats and not intended to be used. I got some very funny/annoyed looks when I first arrived and dug around in seats looking for a belt.

There's no need for a political movement when you already have the thing (no seatbelts).


You can only do that if the school completely controls the laptop. You have to have the professor be able to verify that the student was using an approved laptop each class period. Seems like a nonstarter to me.


It's always a balance of tradeoffs and benefit. That might work, but there are already alternatives. If possible, change the design so that the anticipated load is acting on the x and y axis of the print. If that's not possible, another common tactic is to do something like partial print > insert metal rod in printed channel along y axis > resume print.


Nazis were invading other places now. The US cut off Japan's oil supply, triggering an existential crisis for Japan that led to a military attack.

If United States had joined the Axis powers, leadership very plausibly could have continued the practice of isolationism (which was the popular opinion before Pearl Harbor). It might have been a shortsighted move, but Nazis invading Europe did not sell the US population on entering the war.


Comment I replied to was talking about Europe during WWII


> other countries have much less firearm ownership.

Interesting. Why do you think countries with lower firearm ownership rates have fewer shootings?


> my phone provider simply refuses to let you call me with it.

I don't think it's necessary to go this far. The provider could indicate something like "CANNOT VERIFY NUMBER". I imagine most people would block such calls.


Isn’t that the same thing? I was making the assumption that the way I would block such calls would be by telling my phone provider they don’t need to route them to me in the first place.


The FCC issued a report on this very subject[1]. TLDR, there have been four exceptions to the SHAKEN/STIR requirements:

- Providers that can't afford it implement it - Non-IP networks - Small voice service providers that originate calls via satellite using U.S. NANP - Providers that lack control over the network infrastructure necessary to implement

Nothing is going to change as long as those holes exist.

The can't afford it exception is disappearing soon, as it isn't true for any business. Total setup costs for STIR/SHAKEN are under $2000 these days. Providers that lack control over the network infrastructure (i.e. they don't have the ability to control the stir/shaken headers so by definition they can't spoof numbers) will likely continue to be a thing as changing it would force pretty much every small business in the VOIP industry out of business and allow only large companies to be VOIP service providers.


> less than the cost of one of these Pis to acquire all of them together.

Before RAM went crazy, the Pi 4 was $75 for *8GB and $125 for 16GB.

Another consideration is heat and power consumption, I have an OptiPlex micro (also surplus) and power consumption is 8W-90W (standby versus peak), 5x-10x more than a Pi 4.
