Sometimes I will use something and realize I’ve owned it forever. It’s a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never...

Oooh, you just gave me a thought of mine! My bedside stand was a hand-me down from a college friend in the 90s. So I’ve been using that for close to 30 years now.

I think the idea is both are adding new files and also making changes to various files but his commits to the non-new files caused the conflict. Also, if both new files affect the same deliverable (like a DLL) then that could create a conflict in some cases (though I think that all depends on the build system).

How many of those are real serious recalls that they didn’t just fix with easy tweaks over the air? I hate Musk as much of the next guy but I follow a lot of EV YT channels and even the ones that don’t like Tesla acknowledge that the media overhyped the recalls given how many of them have been easy OTA fixes. Plus since they iterate very fast and don’t just update the car once every four years often it only affects a small subset. Like 1-4k cars in some cases rather than the typical 100k recall that Toyota would have.

To be fair, there are some good ones out there. I worked for a drug-rehab company in the 90s as the IT head that got mostly government funding for a 6 month-rehab-program for non-violent drug offenders (mostly stuff like heroine, cocaine, etc.). We also had an in-prison program but I don’t think that was as effective. Of course to get government contact money we would have to meet lots of strict guidelines too.

I definitely more wary of ones that don’t get any public funding and therefore have practically no guardrails and less forced transparency.

You absolutely should keep on watching YT. In fact I can specifically highly recommend the channel DukeUnivLibraries. This video with almost 1M views will sway in just the first 15 seconds but you will not be able to peel your eyes away for the entire 3 minutes and 14 seconds. Prepare yourself. Get some popcorn. youtu.be/e1iGEM9NMFM
