Some regions have stopped observing standard time because of the accident risk with so many drivers, surgeons, and heavy equipment operators, for instance, working on a circadian rhythm issue. Yet, we cause sleep deprivation to a huge number of people more often each year with little concrete benefit we can tie causally to the amber alerts.

Whom do we sue for loved ones injured by amber alerts and sleep-deprivation?

there are ALPR cameras everywhere, and it's very hard to imagine John Q. Public is going to have a hot tip before our dystopian AI panopticon does.

I'm not sure whether you're for the seeming proliferation of camera surveillance - you say "everywhere" - or against it.

I'd normally consider the stress level of a surveiled population as a tangent, here.

Really? It happens this often?

In 26 years, I've seen this happen in two occasions with enterprise Linux. One of them was my own damned fault for using a marginal config. The other was an update that added a new dependency in the code but not the package.

That's it. Twice.

it sounds like "the freedom to work in one's best environment" is the ideal policy.

Yeah. They're suffering, but Render Unto Caesar.

If I want to choose freedom over "security", I should have the option to do so.

You can, but it's a careful sequence of steps.

  1. Discard, replace, and forever avoid anything apple. You controlling your device is really not their deal.
  2. Graphene on ... something
  3. This step intentionally left blank

it does rather beg the question

Nope. It just raises the question.

I like how, even near death, he still wanted people to represent themselves properly.

I hope we can continue to only reward people with attention when they can write to the 6th grade; and caution those who cannot, so they can edit their writing and meet that minimum.
