If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Had to look him up. He's from Middlesbrough? Sounds just like a former fellow Texan to me. Even says freeway instead of motorway.
And survived pancreatic cancer?! He's truly been on the Road to Hell and back. Lemminkäinen, this one.
This isn't usually the kind of thing I listen to, but I enjoyed it.
Lyrics excerpt: And all the roads jam up with credit
And there's nothing you can do
It's all just bits of paper flying away from you. He knows a ton about central banking, that's for sure.

A wonderful song - both part I and part II.

Deep learning‘s reached the end of its rope. At least according to a group of MIT researchers who recently conducted an audit of more than 1,000 pre-print papers on arXiv. I think I may have heard that before

Modern computers say we’ve squeezed nearly as much out of AI researchers as we can
FTFY

Or too much of AI has squeezed these researchers out of Natural Intelligence.

This sounds like one of those Bill Gates statements when he said nobody would need more than 640K of memory.

Government can give you nothing but what it takes from somebody else. A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you've got, including your freedom.-Ezra Taft Benson

Ok, but the sentiment is still valid.

Microsoft has ported the popular Sysinternals Procmon utility to Linux so that users can monitor running processes' activity. Finally, they have something to monitor and manage processes
But it's pretty?
|

I like sysinternals tools but a lot of them are things that do stuff that linux already can do.
like the one that tells you what process is locking a file.

Dogs are renowned for their world-class noses, but a new study suggests they may have an additional—albeit hidden—sensory talent: a magnetic compass. So they're not actually sniffing each other, they're just aligning based on their polarity?

Dung beetles use the Milky Way, but you've got to be nocturnal to do that.

Wow! The old 'Dogs Poop Pointing North' research has become incredibly refined!

The cat sometimes farts something close to a carrion smell. Still dogs sniff intently, as if it is a subtle scent.

The rise of DevOps is more an evolution than a revolution, and developer jobs aren’t going anywhere Uh, the 'dev' part?
Someone actually thought devs were going away just because some of them also deploy to the servers?

Quote: Instead, argued Knupp, the tyranny of DevOps was forcing coders to become generalists rather than specialists. The history of labour is largely one of increasing specialization. Trying to reverse this trend is usually imbecilic.

Ops is maintenance. You can't dev while doing ops.
So, one is paying dev to do ops, wasting money where development takes a backseat to maintenance. I spent years as a dev cleaning up mistakes of rockstar programmer (Hi Ralph!), got fired for the effort and had to sign a contract that the rockstar wasn't to blame. Haven't touched ops since that day. If the software complete, then maintenance shouldn't require a dev in the first place. If it does, you're wasting money.
If you can't afford ops, you can't afford dev. Go buy a lottery ticket. If you want dev, you pay for it, without them doing ops (or support, we had that discussion already)
How about DevOpSales? If you want to combine jobs you do not understand, why stop at two? DevOpsManagement will never be a thing, but what about DevOpsCleanToilets?
How about just blaming us for all that happens and taking all the credits for the good stuff? Aw, wait.. Hi Ralph!
