The stupidest part is that their aggressive hostility against new questions means that the content is becoming dated. The answers to many, many questions will change as the tech evolves.
And since AI’s ability to answer tech questions depends heavily on a similar question being in the training dataset, all the AIs are going to increasingly give outdated answers.
They really have shot themselves in the foot for at best some short term gain.
The headline is terrible.
They’re not banning retractable door handles, they’re banning electronic mechanisms for opening doors.
Door handles can still be retractable, they just need to work mechanically without power not electronically like Tesla handles do.
Which makes a fuck-ton more sense than having emergency manual release cables that nobody knows about. Last thing you want in an emergency is an escape route that requires special knowledge or tools to use.
I’m starting to think Microsoft gives windows a new version number every time they want to make a bunch of big breaking changes, just so the bad reputation can die when they rebrand it as Windows 12 (or whatever stupid naming scheme their marketing team comes with next.)

I hate that my thoughts on this need to waffle between:
(A) who do I think would be the best president, and
(B) who do I think has the most strategic chance of beating the GOP puppet candidate.
No.
Not because I’m evil, but because I am empathetic and someone evil would absolutely figure out a way to use that to manipulate me.
Anti-homeless architecture is meant to encourage homeless people to actually go to homeless shelters
Umm no… anti-homeless architecture isn’t meant to encourage people to go to homeless shelters, it’s meant to make it inconvenient to be homeless where “rich people” might have to see and acknowledge you. Its goal is to make the problem easier to ignore not drive people to get help.
We can’t say that. We don’t know what would’ve happened in Canada if Trump lost.
If Trump lost:
A lot of things could’ve been different, but most notably:
For all we know PP wouldn’t be seen as “the same MAGA threat”
If they’ve already bought the car Elon already has their money. Buying another car because we now know what a piece of shit Elon is, doesn’t change that.
Total monthly posts exploded after Spez enshitified Reddit, and is still growing steadily month over month.
That suggests that the current decline in monthly active users is primarily because lurkers who only came to lemmy after initially hearing about it on Reddit, went back to lurking Reddit.
The number of users that are contributors is still growing, and that’s what’s important.
One IT security team insisted we have separate source code repositories for production and development environments.
I’m honestly not sure how they thought that would work.
I think I read that the rules are a bit vague saying something like “release the handle”. And don’t clarify if that explicitly meant the handle is the last /only thing you can touch.
The rules are clear that they can’t touch the stone after it starts to cross the hog line. Which I’ve seen a video of him still touching the granite when the stone has clearly started to cross the line and that’s unambiguously against the rules, regardless of if the touch influenced the stone’s movement.
Edit: I just read the link on the comment above yours. They quote the exact rule in question, and clarify that their official interpretation is that it means touching the granite is against the rules.
