You're talking about phones and Internet, but to extend your thought a bit, checks don't work at the scale we run financial transactions anymore, they are scanned and recorded, then data about them is used for settlement, and they have been doing this for decades. But your point stands about phones and the Internet.
Or chagas. Or chikungunya. Or any of a number of other aegyptus-spread diseases. A species that is not native to most of the world, is not a natural pet of most ecosystems, and which doesn't contribute in any meaningful way to almost any ecosystem in the world.
Sadly most places aren't doing anything worth writing home about, but if this family actually cares then you're very right and they need to learn exactly how the new ingredient will work in their kitchen.
In my experience bromated flour makes dough that I don't like at all, so I'll be glad when that's gone.
It's not entirely outsourced by any means. There is a lot of it. The article is discussing one department that was outsourced, many others are not.
Regarding running their own Linux distro, that probably would be neither cheap or really helpful (which of their vendors would support that vs. some other distro in practice?) but yes, there is a sizeable IT footprint required for such a large place.
Sleeping with celebrities is celebs trying to calmly talk you to sleep. Empire and Revolutions are great podcasts. You can learn and then re-listen the next day if you want to learn more.
Would I lie to you is amazing, and the stories start to become a safety blanket. The unbelievable truth is great too.
Some compliance measures (PCI DSS 4, HIPAA) mandate encryption in transit and none penalize it, so making any of that easier and less error-prone seems like a step in the right direction.
I'm not windows expert, but as far as I know, the way to get snapshots on NTFS is via VSS, which is usually going to work by making a block level snapshot that can be mounted independently and used read only. I don't believe NTFS was designed or has been updated to implement the kind of filesystem features that I was describing.
And yes, NTFS is usually slower at a lot of day to day things. It's very sophisticated in some respects, but it's traditionally not strong at dealing with lots of small file operations across lots of files, something that Linux filesystems tend to be good at, especially as e.g. got was written to support kernel development and if there is something that would speed up git that required a filesystem change due to git showing a performance weakness, well, I believe that had precedent
Filesystems are either pretty simple or really complex. The old dos FAT filesystem just overwrote the first character of a file name with an omega, and so usually you could just undelete by having a utility that would change the name back, as long as nothing used the blocks.
Modern filesystems are an absolute wonder of spinning wheels inside of spinning wheels allocating ranges of blocks, and then doing bookkeeping to reorganize linked data structures as fast as an SSD can write or as efficiently as possible on spinning rust.
Some log structured filesystems can do special snapshotting either automatically like NetApp ontap or manually like zfs so that when you take a snapshot any further changes preserve a view of that snapshot at a point in time that you can treat like a special directory where you can cd to and copy back out data as it was as long as you have space. Windows supports this kind of functionality with the VSS API if the underlying FS tech supports it.
The downside to these approaches is that they tend to cause fragmentation, can cause a lot of extra space to be used (after all, if you delete a tb, it may be because you meant to and you needed to, so if you mean it, why hasn't it gone away, etc.,) and are a lot of complexity that 99% of the time 99% of the people don't want to think about it or pay for it (pay as in it's slower, uses more space, the complexity leads to more failure modes, etc )
Congratulations on the visit to Roosevelt Island! I hope you kept cool in the heat. When I grew up, we only ever called the power plant big Alice (no one ever spelled out "Allis" that I can recall), so thanks for looking into that!
If you think about it, preserving rain forests is free! Reforesting them only requires a few dedicated people, some seeds, and some time. The hard part is stopping people from fucking them up to make such small amounts of money.

I mean they're there, you just can't see them
As the first boom turned to bust, fuckedcompany.com was a snarky look behind the curtain of the dumb we all built.

I recall that it was cathouses in Columbia

Keepass2android works pretty well. I'm not sure for iPhones
If I you're using the 24.04 version you're not using gnome, you're using COSMIC. It is much smoother than the gnome-based DE was.

That does not look like a molotov.

Yeah, this is complete bullshit. Every bathroom in every home in Brazil has a spray nozzle, at least, to rinse off one's dirty bum.
The work on cosmic is proceeding and as far as I know when cosmic is done, 24.04 will be released. In the mean time 22.04 still gets updates.

We'll it hasn't killed the owner, neighbors, or any nearby ducks. Yet.

Well this is the last message on my feed right now, experiencing the symptoms you describe. You are quite the cause vs. effect quandary right now
