In a way it was archived, into the minds and training data of AI models.

Is that not a good excuse for drug legalisation? If drugs are illegal then we get poor-quality or adulterated drugs, leading to deaths, and funding illicit activities. If we legalise it, we get quality control and tax.

Because the Makefile also becomes a central place of what you can run in a project without having dozens of different shell scripts. You can comment on targets, depend on others. Makefile targets to restore, the build i18n files, etc

I made a bash script that takes your Makefile and gives you a nice dialog menu for the targets that have comments. Works nicely as a self documenting project command menu.

We use PM2 in a docker container since we got a memory leak and PM2 has a memory limiter option that allows us to kill and restart a process when it uses too much memory. If we let it grow the response time starts to drop due to GC taking longer and longer.

You can be rich, get an education, and then lose the money but not the education.

How is this different from the scam where someone sends out stock tips for different companies to different people? The ones that were successful they send out another round of random stock tips. Some of those will be right. Then they can target the people they sent the right ones to and say, look we predicted these so we are successful.

Basically, if you have many people predicting something, just from randomness some will be more successful and some won't be.

The source for that is the "Ministry of Defence’s Main Directorate of Intelligence (GUR)" so I would take that with a huge grain of salt.

They are a bit upset that Musk refused to allow them an offensive use of Starlink which would have, in his opinion, escalated the war.

It's also exposes your growth metrics. When using sequential id's one can tell how many users you have, how many users a month you are getting and all sorts of useful stuff that you probably don't want to expose.

It's how the British worked out how many tanks the German army had.

Yes! by the same logic we should not be tracking her public concerts. The location and times of the concerts should be private information only available to her.

It's tracking her jet, not her. She is free to use something else, and even send the jet to places without her. If I recall she even has 2 jets.

Sounds like we agree. Given the right instructions and environment, tools are useful.

Handing out knives/computers/chemistry sets without training and unsupervised does not help.

Computers can and are being used to poison the mind. You can get distracted, you can play games, you can go on sites like chat roulette which are popular with the kids etc

Knives are used in everyday life and can't explode or poison you either, yet we don't let our kids run around with knives for example. So saying if something can or can't explode is not a useful metric.

Teaching them how to use a computer under guidance, is useful and so should be treated like a tool to be taught on how to use. Not just handed out willy nilly.

And when deep fakes can easily recreate a face in real time video? doesn't have to be good enough to fool a human, just the face scan which uses a subset of points to match.

You can have merge trains where it will build the MR based on the MRs that are merging to master.

Huh, Gitlab does have "depends on MR" merging which will block until all the dependent MRs have been merged. Including on other projects.
