> there are no health benefits to learn a new topic after having already exhausted your brain sitting +7 hours at work
There are. Unless your work requires almost constant creative reiteration over your mistakes on new topics, learning new things even when exhausted is still healthy for your brain.
You actually don’t need any data plan to call emergency services, 112 is literally baked into the GSM standard. As long as the phone (or car) can connect to a network, it can call 112. It doesn’t even need a SIM card.
A side note, though. This SIM-less emergency calls are blocked in some countries because there were a lot of fake calls. Some other countries put such calls on a less important list of calls. Many countries in EU do allow them, though.
So, car manufacturers could just put in the cellular capabilities without connecting to any network. They just don’t want to.
As a side note, is there any online community where you find people willing to do this? I’ve always struggled most with finding people eager to play and create music, especially as I get older. What you describe sounds like fun.
We definitely must come from different cultures because I raised my eyebrow quite high reading your comment.
My family, close friends, and my partner will definitely tell me when I neglect or abuse my mental and physical health. This includes bad decisions about the way I look.
And every time they do this I am thankful to them, because they usually notice these things way sooner than I would have.
The amount of negativity your positive comment has received looks almost overwhelming. I remember HN being a much happier place a few years ago. Perhaps I should take a break from it.
People working in one of the coolest industries on Earth really do not appreciate their lives nowadays.
I think you haven't used .NET in a while. Nowadays, logging is absurdly easy to configure. Heck, you usually don't even need to configure it, because the basics are already included in most templates. You just use the Logger class and it works.
The only time you have to spend more than 30 minutes on it is when you use some external logging libraries. And most of them are quite sane and simple to use, because it's so easy to create a custom logging provider.
I guess you are right. It's trust-based. For an actual obfuscation Signal would need to implement something like onion routing, right? I think Session does it.
Well, TIL. That does not refute my comment, though. Signal still does not know who you chat with. It's the cloud provider who might log the IP address of the sender. Identifying the person based on that information alone would be non-trivial if not simply impossible.
Signal does not know who you correspond with. The only information they keep is the account creation timestamp, and the date that the account last connected to the Signal service.
You may have confused this information with WhatsApp which indeed keeps a lot of metadata on each user.
There are. Unless your work requires almost constant creative reiteration over your mistakes on new topics, learning new things even when exhausted is still healthy for your brain.
