  • Comparison of $4,000 boutique audio cable to $7 Amazon Basics cable shows audiophiles waste a lot of money — scientific audio equipment analysis with analyzer shows no difference in quality

  • The one thing I would ask is if they were tested in an electrically noisy environment + how long they last.

    $4k is ridiculous, just buy the one that is twice the price of you want build quality.

  • Who is in charge of the deployment algorithm for lando? mercedes, or McLaren?

  • Not a fan of how much the "algorithm" controls deployment instead of the driver. A lot of it is caused by the rules enforcing certain deployment out of corners etc.

    Are other drivers having the same issues?

  • Immich doesn't explicitly support hotlinking, I remember it being a bit annoying to get an embeddable link? (Might have just been for video?)

  • Yes, it has the bot icon

  • The problem with this kind of stuff is that it HAS to be internet facing, and you want it to be stable so you don't cause dead links.

    You don't want to be hosting software that's not getting security updates, especially while linking to it randomly over the internet.

  • Has anyone seeing this migrated from the US to the UK as a dual citizen? What are some challenges to look out for when getting established in the UK?

    Jump

  • Every financial institution will ask if you are a US citizen. Most will refuse to accept you as a customer because they CBA with the tax bullshit.

    See if you can find a bank that will accept you now, so you are no scrambling when you get here.

  • GitHub Actions Is Slowly Killing Your Engineering Team - Ian Duncan

    Jump

  • My work uses Azure Dev Ops because it's "free", I assume it's effectively just GitHub actions, but without the AI (because no one has updated it in the last 5 years)?

    If so, I can agree the agents are awful.

  • Who works at a (tech) company that's not delirious about AI?

  • For the size of data that oil exploration requires, tapes make lots of sense still.

    They have higher density, and they are more shock proof. When you need to move masses of data round the world, writing it to tape, then sticking it on a plane is still the fastest way to move it (probably, may have changed I guess)

  • Removing the creators name/watermark isn't going to help matters

  • Should I use a dedicated password manager instead of Firefox's built-in manager?

    Jump

  • It's good for some stuff - it means you get strong unique passwords for sites etc.

    BUT

    The fact it auto completes basically means that if someone gets access to your phone/computer while it's logged in, they can log into anything. (A password is normally required to actually VIEW them? - maybe not on desktop!)

    I use the built in manager for most days to day stuff, but anything financial or non browser based is stored in keepass. It's a bit annoying, but way more secure that way.
