Exactly. LLMs don't understand semantically what the data means, it's just how often some words appear close to others.
Of course this is oversimplified, but that's the main idea.

Keepass is exactly that. Basically all the client side parts, and the database is a single encrypted file that you can sync however you want.
I was hired to implement a CRM for an insurance company to replace their current system.
Of course no documentation or functional requirements where provided, so part of the task was to reverse engineer the current CRM.
After a couple of hours trying to find some type of backend code on the server, I discovered the bizarre truth: every bit of business logic was implemented in Stored Procedures and Triggers on a MSSQL database. There were no frontend code either on the server, users have some ActiveX controls installed locally that accessed the DB.
That was my first thought. Since when boycotting (aka not choosing) something is illegal?
It's not only salaries:
about half of Signal’s overall operating budget goes towards recruiting, compensating, and retaining the people who build and care for Signal. When benefits, HR services, taxes, recruiting, and salaries are included, this translates to around $19 million dollars per year.
For a YouTube replacement, maybe look into Nebula, it's a subscription streaming service, but owned by the content creators, no ads. It also has some podcasts.
Regarding music, I listen mostly to somaFM. It's an Internet radio with lots of different stations. Mostly independent artists. It's free, no subscription, no ads, listener supported (you can donate/buy merch to support them).
It says that they have 50 full time employees.
The ones that monitor torrent to sue people are lawyer firms, not the government.
I'm very happy with my FritzBox (7590), it handles de ADSL connection to the ISP, supports various DDNS providers, Wireguard VPN, 4 port gigabit switch (5 of you don't need the WAN port), guest WiFi with client isolation.
It also has basic media server and NAS functionality (with USB3 external hard drives).
Of course you can change the DNS server and other network controls like QOS, wake on LAN, port forwarding, different profiles with parental controls, filters, connection times, etc.
They also seem to take security seriously.
Exactly. There's a minimum 4 weeks that can be increased in the employment contract. Going up to 3 months is not rare, depending on the industry/type of job.
And it works both ways, so if the employer wants to fire you, the same notice period applies.
The option was there, but it wasn't ready for every day use. The performance impact was significant. The couple times I tried it, it was practically unusable. The UI also showed a warning about performance when you enabled it
I had a very good experience with Honeypot (https://www.honeypot.io/en/). It's Europe only, so not sure about the legal aspects of working from the US, but Germany have recently did some changes to laws related to work visas specifically to attract tech workers, so it shouldn't be that hard. You speak German, so that's a big plus.
It's a "reverse" job search, in the sense that you create your profile/CV and companies apply to you. After creating your profile, you do a short call with a recruiter, that helps you adjust it to the type of job you are looking for.
This!! Wendell is the best! He actually started designing his own KVMs because the ones on the market didn't have all the functionalities/support.
There was no version control at all. The company that provided the software was really shady, and the implementation was so bad that the (only) developer was there full time fixing the code and data directly in production when the users had any issue (which was several times a day).
I like SomaFm. Lots of different ambient music stations without commercials. I Specially like SpaceStation and DroneZone for coding.
Return to Monkey Island, Vampire Survivors and Northgard.
Plus, my boss bought an arcade cabinet for the office, so I've been playing lots of different arcade games, mostly Golden Axe, Bubble Bobble and Street Fighter II
Great game! And very playable on mobile too. I also enjoyed Shapez a lot. Looking forward to the sequel.
Yes!! I used Linux back then (still do) and I absolutely hated M$, but I loved the Intellimouse.
It's really great on the Stream Deck. The controls work perfectly. I played it a lot while commuting.
Replicators! Yes!!
Some restaurants probably will still exist as a premium option. And chefs can create recipes and sell them online.
They'll probably add DRM to it. Crap! 😬

I code in C/C++. Work laptop is windows, but the products run on various Linux and Unix flavors, as well as in Windows. So I use Clion on win, that syncs the code changes to a Linux VM for building and testing. The toolchain is in a docker image, so I can change the build and test environments without affecting each other. Since I need to test on different OSs, I have multiple VMs in a server at the office.
Same here. Now my router/AP does it automatically.
One of the best games ever! Doing a vanilla Royalty run now, and looking forward to try Biotech later.
Public transit in NY moves literally millions of people per day, so the chances are still pretty low.
Yes, I agree it's a lot.
I think that with "recruiting" and "HR services" they mean outsourced services, so maybe not all of it goes directly to the employees.
Great game! Just finished it on the Steam Deck.
Now I'm starting Botanicula. Loving it so far
I created a new steam account with a different email address just to order mine on a different country than my main account. You might need a local payment method for the country you are shipping to. Not sure if that's the case for Europe, but it's required for some countries.
Shift, Escape and mouse wiggle, in that order.
Maybe find a middle ground, like sharing the hosted service with just one or two persons, like a close friend, family member, etc. Could be someone you live with or that you can give VPN access to your network. That way is more private and mainly for your self, but also has some sense of doing it for others to motivate you.
Exactly
Also, the key word in these type of studies is "linked", which means that's only a correlation, with no proof of causality.
The way it's written, it makes you think that the screen time causes anxiety and depression, but there are other studies that suggest the causality goes in the other direction, kids that suffer from depression tend to spend more time in social media.
