Take a video instead. It's faster and have a better coverage.

I always have do full 360 degrees inspection during pick up and return. Clockwise / counter clockwise, scanning top to bottom. Often narrating with what I'm currently seeing. Also giving often damaged areas a good attention (wheels, bumpers, etc)

A video would work too but I actually prefer taking high resolution stills vs android's smearing/stabilizing video features.

Does anyone here have real world experience with Pulumi?

Is it mature? How good is its support for non AWS & 2nd tier cloud services? Can it replace Terraform? Did you have hair pulling moments dealing with it?

I'm no expert in ML, one use case is that if you want to refine the already trained model that was trained elsewhere.

Additionally, privacy-preserving AI.

Yay! This brightens my day a little.

On the other hand it's just a slap on the wrist for FB.

405M?

The fine sounds like a lot, but Meta's profits last year were $117 billion.

Previous GDPR infringements have a huge impact on severity of future punishments. If they continue to violate GDPR they risk getting fined 4% of the Meta’s worldwide annual revenue (not profit!) or getting outright banned from processing data of EU citizens which would be absolutely devastating for them.

> outright banned from processing data of EU citizens

Enforced how?

How would they even force them to pay this fine?

Blocking / banning companies from buying ads / giving them money.

Exactly! https://osquery.io is one example that

You're implying that application written in Rust would not have no size, memory and security issues. That is of course not true.

Do you think it's unreasonable to assume that an app written in Rust will be smaller, use less memory and be safer than a similar app written in JavaScript?

I think it’s safe to assume that of anything written in something which doesn’t bundle an entire browser.

Though I do think it’s unrealistic that the legions of JavaScript devs are going to learn rust to make simple desktop apps because it doesn’t really have a reputation of being an easy language to learn.

The UI part of the app with its HTML/CSS/Javascript is normally the most the memory hungry part - there won't be a huge difference there between tauri and electron.

It depends on how big your app is. The problem with Electron is that it bundles its own installation of Chromium, so if you have 5 Electron apps, you have 5 instances of Chromium taking up memory. With something like Tauri, the system web view is used, which is likely already loaded into memory, so the marginal memory usage of each additional application is very small.

A big enough application will dwarf Chromium's memory usage with its own, but for smaller apps, the cost of running your own Chromium instance will dominate your app's memory overhead.

No, it won't be. You gotta weigh years if not decades of Node/JS experience vs 0 years of Rust experience of the average dev. Development time will be far shorter too.

As far as size goes:

a) Compiled JS apps generally have to include a whole Javascript engine, which makes them significantly larger b) Rust is designed for shipping small static binaries, whereas Node is not; node.exe by itself is tens of megabytes, and you can only make it smaller by compiling it yourself from source. Deno has compiling static binaries as an explicit feature so it may fare better in the long run, but it's still limited by a)

As an example: I just tested on MacOS and a hello world program compiled with `rustc` is 378KB, whereas one built with `deno compile` is 74MB.

The dataset may not be bogus, but a lot of this fashion / what people like / what people think is good

That way doesn't scale well. Things become very messy and unmaintainable really quickly. This is how people code in the past, and there are good reasons why people moved on.

Code becomes unmaintainable when it was organized poorly and grows or if discipline was not maintained during growth.

React projects are just as susceptible to that, and "modern" web development is quite frankly a larger maintainability headache due to the dependency hell they bring.

IE is outdated and unsupported by the maker. Time to let it die.

Please learn what /s means :)

Lead by example.
