I think a lot of the downvotes I’ve gotten are from people who haven’t been exposed to much water. I grew up in Australia, we’re almost all trained swimmers.
But even here swimming lessons aren’t common before 5.

Kid was 5, went on a short walk to an open body of water where he would get feathers unsupervised.
When drowning is the second largest cause of deaths in children, I don’t think this is an acceptable level of risk.
Trial will determine whether that’s true or not though.


Interested to see where people move to. I didn’t know about it before but I’d like tobe involved now.


Well, their tone and lack of support for the latest pixel kinda does make me think that’s not true.
But I love a good conspiracy theory.
Like birds.
They’re not real


I think you misunderstand what is being said.
The point is that the post makes it sound like using a Pixel 11 under Android results in less security than before, but for most people there is no change since they never used MTE anyway.
That’s not what they’re saying. They’re saying Graphene without MTE is less secure, which isn’t something they want.
Which you can read from their post here
We strongly recommend against buying Pixel 11 devices. Pixel 8, 9 and 10 have much better overall security for GrapheneOS. Pixel 10 is cheaper with similar hardware and MTE. Pixel 11’s Titan M3 should improve BFU security for users without a strong passphrase, but losing MTE craters AFU security.


Well, wet dirt is permeable and my understanding was they needed to stop the radioactive material leeching into the water table. Which would have caused radiation poisoning and cancer rates to soar for much of Europe.
It also was not stupid from start to finish. If it were, it would still be uncovered and half of Europe would need to be evacuated.
IMO the biggest problems were to do with the reactor design being secret. That and the attempted coverup afterwards. But I wouldn’t consider the cleanup to have been incompetent. The Chernobyl liquidators have been widely credited with limiting the effects of the disaster.


That’s definitely not accurate. For example, stopping the water table from being as polluted under the conditions meant having to use people.
They could also have just not bothered.
I’m not saying that their response didn’t kill a lot of people.
It did.
I’m saying it could have been much worse sr


5000 would have been a massive undercount too


I found the bot guys!
I think of Pavlova. Yum!


SPR oil is sold competitively when the President finds, pursuant to the conditions set forth in the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), that a sale is required. Historically, the President has authorized emergency releases from the SPR on four occasions.
In short, yes I believe this to be the case


I dunno, sounds like a bunch of lies tbh. Like, he isn’t quiet, but how much of what he’s saying is coherent, let alone how much of what he’s been told is true?


They’re selling the strategic petroleum reserve.


Won’t somebody think of the children (in a non-creepy way that doesn’t focus on their genitals)?!


“Designed” but did not implement. Pretty much says everything you’d need to know.


Yeah these were both Australian companies that were purchased by american countries.
So yeah, the insanity is here.


You’re right. That is a very “fuck you got mine” position to take.
I will say I have 3 friends, all senior devs. 2 got laid off this month. It doesn’t affect you until it does.


Its not like you can have one without the other. But I’ve found that people demanding responses in “good faith” are rarely engaged in it themselves.
The comment you reaponsed to asked why you aren’t more angry about it. And you responded in support, without any reason why you wouldn’t be mad, and also that it was only taking “bad” jobs.
But I specifically mentioned work at microsoft and Google which aren’t “dog shit”.


Linters have existed for a long time. They were the original AI that generated code. Using AI to supplement work in a similar manner isn’t replacing devs.
So I’vw never used a linter that generates code. I’ve used them to enforce code styles but never to generate code. And code generation isn’t really the point there.
Second. AI isn’t replacing devs? The massive layoffs in the tech sector would disagree. Its also not “dogshit apps”. Google claims 90% of their code is generated and Microsoft claims 30% both come coupled with massive layoffs. To be fair Microsoft is kinda dogshit and Google search sucks now. But googles apps remain higher quality.
If the centrist argument is just to shrug and say “I guess we’re stuck with it”. I guess I’d say you aren’t a centrist and are a tacit supporter of ai.
Historically, bodies of water are the most dangerous. Not just due to drowning but the constant threat of predators at the waters edge.
But the biggest problem with your statistic is that most kids just simply don’t have access to large bodies of water regularly. If you were to factor that in, I think you’d find the risk is much, much higher.
