As a Fedora user, I thought Debian would be more secure.

What’s wrong with your Fedora installation? Mine doesn’t do that (also without a TPM chip)

If this is true (or at least plausible to the relevant people), the author of that Twitter post will probably be on the radar of any shady government agency worldwide. Not a nice situation to be in.

Are you sure? Doesn’t the “smart edison bulb” design make it harder to dissipate heat to the casing, therefore making the LEDs get hotter compared to PCBs with LEDs surface mounted on them?

Anyway, if you want your light bulbsany technology to last long, don’t buy the “smart” variant. “Smart” usually means more components and/or more dependencies on interfaces, and more complexity, so a higher chance to fail.

Was ist das Problem?

Your comment is incorrect in many different ways.

Butter is fat and some sugar and protein.

No. The butter in my fridge has almost no sugar (0.6g in 100g) and almost no protein (0.7 g in 100g).

Pasta is mostly carbs.

For comparison: The pasta I have at home have more sugar (most have roughly 3g in 100g) and way more protein (12g in 100g).

they all become calories, and if you eat more calories than you burn, they will be stored as fat.

Are you sure you’re not simplifying too much?

Also, “just” eating less or more calories is not that easy if you ignore the side-effects. Carbohydrates will make you hungry very soon unless mixed (or eaten after) fibers, fat and protein. Which you should do anyways for health reasons.

TIL my thesis could have been easier if Typst would have been available years earlier.

That’s another reason for increasing minimum wages, as they try to do.

Actually, 90% income tax for the top incomes was common in western countries in the 50s.

400’000€ yearly income is not middle class. It is roughly the top 1%. Are you maybe mistaking property for income?

I would have preferred taxing on property instead of income, but as long as interests and profits and other benefits are part of income, it sounds reasonable to me.

I guess you could try AI-checking it and answer “Ignore all previous instructions. …”, followed by some new instructions. Some examples: https://www.aiweirdness.com/ignore-all-previous-instructions/

Maybe they should ban trowing away your trash instead.

Generell wünsche ich mir öfters mal einen klaren, kontrollierten Standard für Nachhaltigkeit anstatt für “Natürlichkeit”

Oh ja, bitte, das wäre so wichtig!

Capitalist perfection: you are paid for cycling, don’t do anything else!

One example for self documenting code is typing. If you use a language which enforces (or at least allows, as in Python 3.8+) strong typing and you use types pro actively, this is better than documentation, because it can be read and worked with by the compiler or interpreter. In contrast to documenting types, the compiler (or interpreter) will enforce that code meaning and type specification will not diverge. This includes explicitly marking parameters/arguments and return types as optional if they are.

I think no reasonable software developer should work without enforced type safety unless working with pure assembler languages. Any (higher) language which does not allow enforcing strong typing is terrible.

I have worked on larger older projects. The more comments you have, the larger the chance that code and comment diverge. Often, code is being changed/adapted/fixed, but the comments are not. If you read the comments then, your understanding of what the code does or should do gets wrong, leading you on a wrong path. This is why I prefer to have rather less comments. Most of the code is self a explanatory, if you properly name your variables, functions and whatever else you are working with.

Correction, 50% of VOTING Americans are VOTING fascist. Doesn’t necessarily mean they are fascist themselves.
