We need to attach actual monetary amounts to PII. If a company loses the data they owe you that money. The money is increased based on how and if they disclosed the leak. Lying about a leak should be a criminal offense.

This would would allow engineers to better be able to prioritize security, which typically gets ignored or put low in priority.

Very difficult to use on mobile.

You can set Kagi as the default search engine today on iOS. Unless I’m misunderstanding.

I’m pretty sure Brave and Vivaldi are both based on Chromium/Blink not WebKit.

Something must be wrong with your computer. I don't see objectionable content when I turn mine on? I'd have to actively seek out objectionable content and I don't even have any sort of filtering or parental controls enabled on my own devices.

The example you give doesn’t really track. If a drug dealer is outside the entrance of your home it’s completely unavoidable. A kid looking at adult material online? Entirely within the control of the parents. We already have filtering and monitoring software.

I know several parents that limit screen time, require screen usage be restricted to public areas of the home, have parental controls and filtering operating etc.. some of the parents I know won’t even let their kids watch a movie unless they screen it first.

It’s been my experience that developers running Mac already know how to use Linux and actively choose to use Mac. Unless the company is forcing it at least.

Sure, it’s stopping some, but not most/all even with strong public opposition.

I don’t know a single engineer that has been terminated and replaced with AI. I know lots of engineers that were terminated due to shifting jobs offshore for cost savings, over hiring during COVID, and a poor economy.

NIMBY seems to have a hard time stopping data centers. Why do they have more success stopping renewables and rail?

AI still uses search engines though.

> It's costing a lot, it's not bringing much.

It kinda depends on what you mean by “much”, but we’ve certainly had advances from the ISS in the last decade.

Several experiments with microgravity manufacturing such as ZBLAN fiber optics, 3D bioprinting, and other medical technologies. Microgravity manufacturing can offer some significant quality improvements and prevent settling.

There are other improvements as well. Foundational research is very important and space has a solid track record of delivering science that we turn into very useful technology on earth.

I feel like people have been saying AI was great for years now?

It’s amazing how often an LLM mocks or stubs some code and then writes a test that only checks the mock, which ends up testing nothing.
