RE: "I used to work for Tesla…"
@Benjamin-Hall said in "I used to work for Tesla…":
@Polygeekery And probably all that data is still available on their servers, just waiting for someone to crawl in and slurp it up. Linking it to people is trivial, since you have their entire driving history for a long time.
There's no way to tie it to an individual; it could be any Tesla owner who happens to park his car at 27 Shady Oak Drive every night.

RE: "Hacking" Teenager in trouble - for downloading public documents

Or to scan your unlocked car for later 3D printing?
That sounds suspiciously like downloading a car, an act so heinous that even DVD pirates wouldn't do it.

RE: OOP is TRWTF
Some might disagree with me, but the truth is that modern OOP has never been properly designed. It never came out of a proper research institution (in contrast with Haskell/FP). I do not consider Xerox or another enterprise to be a “proper research institution”. OOP doesn’t have decades of rigorous scientific research to back it up. Lambda calculus offers a complete theoretical foundation for Functional Programming. OOP has nothing to match that. OOP mainly “just happened”.
An organic development that wasn't "properly designed" at a research institute? *drops monocle in shock*

RE: responsivenes with vh and vw
@ixvedeusi said in responsivenes with vh and vw:
I find that too narrow, makes for too much going back and forth when I have all that space available on the sides. Might be ok for a phone but that's because phone screens just generally suck for reading. Around maybe 100 characters or so would be better.
100 is fine, and maybe even more, but in general shorter lines are more comfortable to read. There's probably a formal definition, but intuitively it makes sense that you don't want the beginning of the line to be out of your central field of vision and into your periphery by the time you're at the end. Keeping it there also avoids having to break the flow of what you're reading to find the next line. I think bigger line spacing helps with that as well, as the lines are more distinct from each other in terms of where they are visually.

I can say that this is a standard I like. I usually don't maximize my browser horizontally, and I don't like reading super wide lines of text.
I do, but I still don't want to read from one side of my monitor to the other.
Better Motherfucking Website has the right ideas about this stuff:
- body text 60-80 characters wide
- bigger line spacing
- slightly bigger font than default, but don't go crazy with it

RE: WTF is happening with Windows 11? And nothing else
@Tsaukpaetra said in WTF is happening with Windows 11? And nothing else:
My bet is it's a Microsoft Surface someshit. Those don't have a usable keyboard until their shit drivers get installed. It's fantastic.
How do you expect a small startup like Microsoft to be able to include drivers for every odd no-name device in existence, huh?
