Does this mean the execs are now also under the UCMJ?

I wonder if the executives have realised this

Their legal teams will most certainly have been involved.

I am not sure how common it is nowadays, but a more recent example of an Anchoress is Nazarena of Jesus. Born in 1907, she joined the Camaldolese in the 40s and lived as a recluse until her death in 1990.

Oooh, I am Baader-Meinhofing hard. I went down a rabbit hole on the Anchorite life after reading about Paul of Thebes.

I think it is really telling of the quality of the UI when the best way to use it is after enabling a bunch of accessibility settings. I found the Liquid Glass color background effect make some websites unusable on Safari due to the background becoming the same color as the text.

Historically consumer access to security/privacy tools has always been something the govt has wanted to restrict or prevent entirely.


Yeah it wasn't ever sane. It was just harder to onboard and you were still interacting mostly with people you knew. Now it's worse because you'll hardly ever interact with people you know.


Now days you just get a feed of LLM content or foreign psyop accounts. Your actual friends are on IM apps.


I bet c-suite uses Mac


Yeah, and I also bet their Outlook 'Copilot' button has more-than-zero options in its dropdown menu.

But I'd actually love to know how to achieve that, and so far Microsoft AI is awfully silent on the subject...


Nah, they probably just have Copilot as a bullet point on a slide, count that as "using AI", and are psyched for their next board meeting.


I bet they use iphones and leave computers to their underlings/assistants.


"Compute? Think with own brain? Our servants do that for us."


And everything aimed at developers assumes you're using Unix.


Hard disagree: there is a whole universe of Windows-based developers. But even for them, the best offer seems to be a frequently-updated but still-entirely-underwhelming Visual Studio Enterprise plug-in that after 6 months (or so) can't even show proposed changes in response to a prompt without destroying surrounding code...


Hardly, there is this misconception in FOSS circles that software development outside UNIX walls is an ilusion.


Written in '05 and still very poignant. I'd love to see a follow-up of this article updated for how it's changed 20 years later. Seems like the scale and decentralization has changed the most.


RDR2 works great on my AMD Linux machine.


Yeah, same here except in Retail. All the hiring is in the Indian campus where they can pay junior devs 11/hr compared to the 80/hr billed by Kforce, InfoSys, et. al.
