If I remember correctly, Spahn is also member of other orgs related to the US, i. e. Atlantik-Brücke e. V.
It’s certainly interesting as he seems to be the only German member of Dialog. It makes me question if these kind of "memberships" make it (partially) possible for him to be in the position he is in now. Otherwise it’s questionable to me how he can stay in power despite being the person he is.
Assuming the files are encrypted anyway for DRM reasons: why should static content like movies be TLSed? I know I know, "TLS all the things", but it sounds like a high cost at Netflix scale.
I tried looking into Chutes just now. Seems like there is no easy way to just pay & start using it with OpenCode or Claude Code, right? Their docs don’t seem to mention it. Do I really have to execute code with their API in order to use the models?
I haven’t considered it. There was a small time frame where I thought these are "serious" conditions which worsens my ability to see over time, but apparently it’s just a normal thing and I know that I usually react overly sensitive to "anything". Like in: if an average persons says that a cup of tea is warm, I’d say it’s hot. I try to put most things I encounter in/on me to this perspective and it massively helped me calming down over these things. I just stopped attributing floaters (amongst other things) any brain time and since then I basically forgot I have them.
I simply need dark mode for nearly everything as otherwise I see floaters/mouches volantes [0] starting seconds after starring at white/light backgrounds. The same also happens to me when looking at natural light, like the sky during the day. That’s why I am known as the winter-sunglasses-man in my bubble.
Not judging, just reporting: organizers this year have urged people to wear masks. The vast majority (I guess >90%) of current attendees don’t wear a mask as of now.
Congress-Seuche has been a thing since forever and it won’t stop this year.
Also, tickets this year weren’t that hard to get compared to previous years at CCH. You could buy tickets until Dec 9 this year (without vouchers) because lots of people clicked the order button but never paid and those tickets went back into the pool. Highly recommended to check the ticket page every day because this happens quite often.
Can I connect a device which is not capable of running custom software, i. e. the router my ISP gives me, but which is able to connect to WireGuard, be used to connect into an existing tailnet?
I met developers who were way more than only 10x. They were so full of fire that they inspired whole departments with their drive. They drove up the productivity of each and every developer by 1.2x or something and in sum that was way more than they ever could have worked on their own. Sadly, management often doesn't recognize this skill and just sees a warrior who doesn't do as many commits as everyone else, finally getting rid of those.
I'm not nearly your age but discovered what it means to have a rollercoaster career.
Don't underestimate stability and the luxury to feel 'safe' in one place. If you fuck up once you don't have to be scared to sit on the street if you've been in the bucket for a long time already.
We usually don't get better with risk when we age.
Yeah, nice wet dream. If it would work this way, everyone should bet their life savings on it.
