Release 2025.6: Getting picky about Bluetooth
How GitLab decreased repo backup times from 48 hours to 41 minutes with a fix to Git
Maybe that’s intentional to keep you from wanting to stay there a long time and negotiate.
Most users don’t care, as long as they’re getting free stuff
Sad, but very true in my experience. I find even my friends who work in software engineering and have exposure to the bad sides of what technology can do, just don’t take any efforts to change. They addicted to Instagram, to Amazon, and everything else.
YT ads can be relevant to you based on data collected about you
They certainly can be but if there are 2 advertisers and one is the most relevant and the other pays them more money, which one do you think Google is going to show you?
The one that pays more because it’s an auction, but an advertiser that pays more for a less relevant ad to a user won’t be making as much money so there is an incentive to be more relevant.
They used a protocol called WebRTC that allows for establishing direct P2P connections to establish a connection to the Facebook app running on your phone. The FB app knew your identity so it was able to link your in browser actions with your FB identity.

Sounds a lot like getting used to time zones. Just get used to it being 3pm there when it’s 6pm here
It makes some things hard and some things easier. For example, you can more easily defend against DoS attacks because there’s just more targets.
But decentralized makes it easier for bot manipulation because you can hide your actions across multiple users on different instances and those instances can’t easily identify bot signatures like IP addresses to ban many accounts.
Google is doing this because they have incentives to do so. They want to block malicious actors like attack their platforms.
Other companies want to lock down their own apps because they don’t think users should be permitted to do anything other than use their apps exactly as they want.
I don’t like it as a user, but I also see the reason why companies want this by being on the security side of software.
This is the future of the Big Tech Internet if we’re not careful. Attestation to be able to use communications and other websites.
bash doesn’t have a main function either and no one is fucking complaining.
I don’t complain about Bash’s lack of features by not writing any Bash scripts and keeping to saner languages.
I used to work in Amazon (left after 10 years because it wore me down), but it wasn’t that compartmentalized.
I’m sure there were some teams that were like that but I could easily find another team, open a ticket, get a response and see their on calls investigate the issue. It was often times possible to look at their service metrics and source code to see if I could find the problem myself.
Support just can’t share that info because they don’t know what is considered a trade secret or internal detail vs what is public.
I’ve used Brultech in a house before. It’s not very user friendly to setup having to download some different firmware flashing tools and configure everything in a brittle web UI that only allows one browser tab at once. But it does have Ethernet, comes with a variety of different CT clamps. The donut style CT clamps are very compact making it easy to fit them into a electrical box. Don’t use the built-in one, use the HACS integration. The different sizes make me think that the Brultech is probably more accurate than the Emporia with only a single size.
I ended up going with Emporia Vue2 for my own house given the complexity and my house layout not really permitting the Brultech’s install.
Containers can provide SBoMs too and in comparison to HA OS, which is what the comment was referring to, container and core give you better control over the application allowing for more security mechanisms. Comparing container vs core for security is interesting cause container gives you some security features for free like seccomp, cap drops, namespacing, etc. which you don’t get for free with core.
I find the claim that core is more secure than a container because it has an SBoM as dubious, but maybe you’re talking generally about containers vs distro package managers.
Nope. Docker and Home Assistant OS will be the only supported installation strategies

No, it’s electrical code. Standard outlets can’t be used to supply power because it means you have a plug that has exposed wires commonly called suicide wires. While these balconey top solar likely use grid following so it has to detect a grid voltage, the electrical code doesn’t consider it AFAIK.
