Dude it’s a sheet of paper. You can use wide ruled, college ruled or any paper but copy paper is best since it’s blank and should help see the spores easier. I’d definitely recommend a microscope. They’re fun for sure. You can find both items on Amazon. Paper is cheap but the microscope can be expensive for folks. There are cheaper and reliable models. Best of luck out there dude! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
no it won't, because I won't leave life or death decisions up to the AI. Hope that helps. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

It also recommends/states that:
- Pregnant women should smoke 2-3 cigarettes a day.
- You should eat at least one rock per day
- 10-12 cockroaches will crawl in your penis every year, giving them their name.
- Cleaning a rescued pigeon by removing the head, snapping the wings, folding the wings & removing the wings
- sleeping with your thermostat set between 600°f - 670°f
- leaving a dog in a hot car is fine and it's the same temp inside as it is outside
- a horse landed on Mars in 1977
- using gasoline in cooking recipes

Even with a specialized AI I wouldn't trust it 100%. If it worked by analyzing pictures there's always the risk it could miss something essential. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Sure, but then again, I don't really trust any humans 100% either. Specialist humans make mistakes too. We basically all go through life making risk assessments about how bad the outcome could be, and how much we trust the people involved. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

My question: Why are these companies rolling out garbage? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Money? That's capitalism. They don't care who is harmed, they just want profit. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
But that doesn't make sense. It costs money to develop the garbage that they're rolling out. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
For basically free, novel, user curated data to train their models on and to sell to advertisers and getting their apps on your devices? That's their model. They're utilizing technology they already have and want to develop while letting the users be their guinea pigs and also making money off them in the process. The development is an investment, not a cost. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
I don't know if you've tried to use Google lately, but it's factual garbage. That development was not an investment, it was a waste. They made their product useless. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Most tech is garbage at the start and this definitely wasn't ready to be rolled out, that doesn't mean the investment is bad. It just means it needs more work to be high enough quality. But they're getting free beta testing out of everyone so 🤷 people are lining up to demonstrate the flaws for them instead of having to do lengthy expensive QA internally | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

Not really because the average retail trader will never buy an option, and will never short a stock. Some people may get shaken off by the volatility, but ultimately if you’re in the market you need to understand that emotions shouldn’t make decisions and if you’re in something you’re in it because of the fundamentals. The ones that are trading against the fundamentals are hedge funds who are shorting the stock. If the conspiracies are to be believed (and they are believable) then the stock has been shorted for more shares than there are which will cause the price to shoot up and those that are owning shares will profit. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
The bubble didn’t pop though. The brokers didn’t buy enough of the stock and so they couldn’t legally allow people to buy the stock. When it happened people started selling off because people didn’t want to lose their money. The stock should have been halted while brokers bought up the stock to satiate the demands of their customers. When it would have reopened it would have reopened higher because there would still be a shit ton of buying pressure. The problem was they didn’t halt the stock. They let it keep going. But they only allowed retail to sell. Make sure you get it right | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Two billion, since the recent share offering. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Yes, one share traded twice counts as two trades. Obviously. I don’t care enough to go find the exact post where I was even asking about that, but it’s a pretty safe bet that I learned something.
More to the point though, when was that part of my initial comment? At what point is that even relevant? I laughed at the notion that Keith Gill is seen as a leader by anybody, not whether one share traded twice counts as two trades. He’s just some dude that day trades. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Ignoring the possibility of future or unadvertised usage of the technology (although you seem to have a ton of trust Microsoft will play nice for some reason). Imagine for a second that A system is compromised, everything ever viewed, typed, interacted with on that computer is now exposed. Passwords, privacy info, etc. Just look at all the ransomware attacks based around compromising system data.

Its also ignoring potential they are compelled to work with goverments to supply abilities to access those documents.

**TLDR:** users will be able to turn off this feature and data collected by this feature *should* only stay on the local machine.
Many of these comments (understandably) seem to be gloomy about the feature. I want to provide some more context regarding the way this feature is said to be working.
"When the feature was unveiled, Microsoft promised security. The data Recall collects is stored on device, "encrypted" using Bitlocker, and is never sent to Microsoft or advertisers. Users are free to turn off Recall, or if they do choose to use it, delete any and all snapshots at any time." - [Microsoft Insider](https://www.windowscentral.com/software-apps/windows-11/microsoft-should-recall-windows-recall-security-researcher-finds-microsofts-new-ai-tool-woefully-insecure)
This article also proceeds to raise some valid logic about the encryption aspect:
"With that said, I find the outrage about this discovery to be somewhat overblown. All your files are unencrypted when you're using your PC, yet most people aren't constantly concerned about malware potentially scraping their personal documents, pictures, downloads, videos, and synced cloud folders."
Nonetheless, I do have worries about this feature. It's does give MS and corporate IT departments to spy on people's activity and makes our machines that little bit less private. Password security is another big concern. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
I literally wouldn't be allowed to use this where I work. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

According with Mr. Andrew S Tanenbaum:
> A modern computer consists of one or more processors, some main memory, disks, printers, a keyboard, a mouse, a display, network interfaces, and various other input/output devices. All in all, a complex system.oo If every application programmer had to understand how all these things work in detail, no code would ever get written. Furthermore, managing all these components and using them optimally is an exceedingly challenging job. For this reason, computers are equipped with a layer of software called the operating system, whose job is to provide user programs with a better, simpler, cleaner, model of the computer and to handle managing all the resources just mentioned.
In no place he says the job of a fvcking operating system is to screenshot you and collect data. I wish the fleas of thousand stray dogs infest the pubes of the person that had the idea of Recall. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

>The Azure for Operators and Mission Engineering teams are part of a broader organization created to house Microsoft moonshots. This organization, called Strategic Missions and Technologies, was created in 2021 and is led by the former Azure boss Jason Zander. It brings together cutting-edge initiatives such as quantum computing and space alongside its government cloud business.
They were moonshot teams. Gonna be tons of stuff in there that’s been funded for ten years with nothing traction-able. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

So unprofitable stuff that Microsoft has been sinking money into for decades hoping it turns into something major. That group probably has semi-regular layoffs as they cycle in-and-out different moonshot projects. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
My fav Oasis song | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Yes.
We've just spent the last few years being very hesitant to terminate anyone's employment because that wasn't considered moral during the pandemic, and we were printing free money while doing it.
These layoffs have been expected and indicative of nothing except the timeless reality that businesses aren't charities. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Azure was profitable therefor a the company can't let go of any employees? We're talking about a business. How does this make *any* sense?
Are you suggesting Microsoft should pay people they don't need? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

"get into IT" they said "you'll have job security" they said. Was going to school for accounting and gave it up for this shit. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
A quick piece of advice for anyone upset by all the tech layoff news.
The news doesn’t report when people are steadily hired, only layoffs, so it always sounds worse than it is.
In this case, the details are important. It was in Azure, but specifically in the teams that were working on ‘moonshot’ products. These are by definition going to fail more often than succeed, so there’s going to be projects shut down and the people laid off. MS is probably hiring the productive people into other teams and others go.
It’s never fun to lose a job, so we need to have empathy for the individuals, but I don’t believe the industry is doomed the way the news would make it seem. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
It’s needed to keep growth and meet EPS expectations on a quarterly basis. Makes sense to cut staff since that will help boost numbers in the future reporting periods. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
I agree they are not charities but that also means they should not receive taxpayer charity aka CHIPs act handouts to Intel etc.. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
This has been true for ever. If it's not something you can handle i suggest another profession that doesn't move much.
Accounting? Carpentry? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
When the product has been created, and you have no new product on the horizon, why keep those workers? To maintain and add some extra features over time doesn't require the same size of a team.
So yeah, it's not that weird they are being let go. Do you keep a carpenter when the woodwork is done, or a welder when the welding is done? This is a risk you take when you are in a production role. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
As someone whose brother has been in the industry for upwards of 20 years, it has not “been true forever”.
People were not asking for 5 years of experience in Java at a high level when Java had only been public for 2 years.
Companies do that shit intentionally so they can lowball you on salary when they give you an offer. Corporate greed is the problem, not the pace of the industry.

Depends on where you work. In large orgs you can't just randomly ask for raises, there is a promotion process and pay is tied to your level. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
It continues because people tolerate it. Many people have a fear of cancellation, and they justify keeping the service "one more dollar or two is ok". It is very effective.
They will continue increasing prices for as long as they can, then if there is a major backlash or loss of customers, they will decrease it a bit, or offer a cheaper tier with less features in a hope to drive customers to the more expensive plan. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Yes you can.
They don’t have to say yes (just like you don’t have to continue to pay for Spotify if they raise prices), but you absolutely can always ask for a raise and/or say that you’ll quit unless you get a raise/promotion/etc. If they say no then well you’ve got a decision to make, but you can *always* ask. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Premium launched at $9.99 in 2009. $2 in 15 years isn't insane. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Sure, but that’s what everyone is doing. I certainly get your point, but I think the entire streaming model is broken. Back when you had to buy digital or physical albums artists could make real money from their fans. Music enthusiasts would spend $10 to $50 a month and get a few new songs they could play as much as they wanted.
Now you can listen to 30 new albums in a day and each of those artists get a fraction of a cent. I don’t know who to fix it, but music is broken. Although maybe the right thing to do is add mandatory artist ads to albums. “Here’s their Patreon, merch store, and tour dates” | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Artists make pennies. The majority of artists barely even make minimum wage. And many are talented but unless you're basically a top 100 artist in America you're not making that much.

How is that any different to any of those other examples? They are paid a certain fee per stream which if they increase will also make those big artists richer.

I mean most people with a retirement plan have it invested in the stock market specifically so that it grows. If your money doesn't grow, you change what you're invested in. Meaning you sell your stagnant Spotify stock in favor of some other growing company. It's pretty much the only way to have enough money when you're old to not be destitute. These aren't "greedy shareholders" they're normal people like us. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

I agree, and I appreciate CDs too.
