... and is built with Next.js including no less than 12 enormous x-font-woff2 chunks of data at the top of the source code and another big __NEXT_DATA__ JSON chunk at the bottom. Hardly lean, vanilla HTML and CSS.

ummm First amendment? Its not the first time misinformation has been broadcasted on air, why does the FCC need to get involved in this one. Would they have gotten involved if the implication was that he was a liberal?


They asked what was controversial about what he said, not whether the FCC's actions were constitutional.

The former is (for some at least) interesting. The latter is actually consequential. I'm concerned about the latter.

The former, whether I agree or not, is about legal, protected political speech.


I don't see the FCC cancelling news shows on which Trump lies. Double standards driven by politics and why the govt orgs need career staff and not political players. Rule of Law anyone?

Automation costs a lot. The projects I work on are almost always in the millions of dollars,band they're far from being considered "big" projects. The hardware manufacturers will sell you equipment that runs for thirty years. Companies are reluctant to replace working systems.

I replaced a PLC a couple years ago. The software to program it wouldn't run on my laptop because it used the win16 API. It used LL-984 ladder logic, and most people who were experts in that have retired. It's got new shiny IEC-compliant code now, and next they're looking at replacing the Windows 2000 machines they control it with. Once that's done, it'll run with little to no change until probably 2050.


In a lot of "technical" situations, people tend to opt for the well established English counter parts for nouns or concepts. eg even a native Hindi speaker will use कंप्यूटर / computer over संगणक / Sanganak
