  • The scale is different. Dynamics is mainly an ERP like Sage or SAP. It's something you could coordinate the movement of millions of goods through, and tens of thousands of people.

    Access is a database with a GUI that you can slap more GUIs onto at your own peril. Dynamics is an iteration of " Microsoft Great plains" that was turned into an unholy monstrosity to compete with Oracle/IBM, etc

    You will spend millions of dollars deploying it. It will both be bewildering too much and not enough.

  • Drastically different products. Its basically a full ERP with a full CRM build in. It massively outsizes Access, a DB/DBMS, in both complexity and abject stupidity.

  • It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!

  • Of course, but you're already immortal in a TNG world. Transporters can easily modify your body to give you eternal youth, and of course cure any disease or injury. Just make sure your brainwaves/synapses are updated in near real time and refresh the rest of the body daily.

    Why no one actually opts for it is beyond me.

  • It's a software suite for managing company finances, but can do way, way more if you keep slapping bullshit on it. You can run a retail operation through it, for example.

    It's a big, irritating "do anything financial for any type of business" app, and like most "all in one" tools is horribly over and under designed.

    Working with it is brittle, stupid, complicated and expensive.

  • Its actually a trick question, because the instant you step onto the transporter pad and beam out you die, making the snails chase moot.

    Beat the "immortal snail is chasing you forever by vaporizing your body into data and having a new clone of you made elsewhere" with this one weird trick.

  • What's a fun, cheap, solo workout someone can do at home?

    Jump

  • Belly fat is unfortunately just calorie reduction. You can't target fat on specific parts of the body, just overall.

    Improving core strength with no impact on the spine is tough, as most core exercises will likely engage the back and spine. I would try to implement standard, good form push ups if you can. Planking is also an option, but again form is king. Do them properly, for less time instead of "cheating" with loose form if you want to make improvements.

  • How long do I need to exercise for before I start seeing a difference?

    Jump

  • Another thing to add on to why weight isn't a great measurement - You will put on muscle as you lose fat, especially if you shift your diet while you workout. It's fully possible that you lose 5 lbs of fat in a month while putting on 5 lbs of muscle. Both are great strides forward, but the scale will show no change.

    If you are going to use a scale, get one that will do body fat analysis as well. They aren't 100% accurate, but its another measurement that gives a closer look at your actual fitness.

  • How long do I need to exercise for before I start seeing a difference?

    Jump

  • Basically 48 hrs between muscle groups. Mon - Wed - Friday is a reasonable pace if you do an "all in one" routine. If you want to do daily lifting workouts, you need to rotate arms/legs/core then repeat.

    OP, it seems counter-intuitive to workout less to improve, but you have to realize that you gain muscle by straining and overworking current muscle. To build and repair, the muscles need rest, nutrients and time. If you don't give it to them, they can't build up.

    Sleep, time and food are all as important as how much and how often you lift weights.

  • Score one for atheism!

    Jump

  • The last panel is ambiguous about whether the woman is having an emotional breakdown and lying on the ground in tears, or if she was killed by her son and was crying as she died. Both would work as someone being "convinced" their religion is wrong, as being dead would "convince" you about god.

    I think it's the former, but i see the latter.

  • I'm speaking specifically about how many Americans have the legal ability to buy these weapons. The cost involved is why I added the "if they have the money" line.

  • It's got a point, but capitalists will also gladly sell you every tool you need to overthrow them as long as you have the money for it.

    Nearly 150 million adults in the USA can go buy a semi auto rifle right now, even if their plan is to point it at Colt and Smith and Wesson.

  • Vates is pretty chill, as is clear in the article. I think your point is well said, but Vates likes the "vibe" of FOSS, and is willing to take a bit on the chin to keep that energy internally. A bit of "turn the other cheek." They also clearly enjoyed the whimsy and just straight panache of being ripped off in this manner for a while. Their company is doing well and growing rapidly from an excellent product, so I doubt the money mattered much.

    Well, even Jesus started kicking ass at one point with the money lenders. It looks like they are getting there now.

  • Vates spun up xcp-ng off the xen hypervisor and created a great "vsphere" like management plane called xen orchestra. Its a fantastic hypervisor with vsan/built in backups/etc. With vmware self immoliating after selling to Broadcom, they are an ideal stand in for vmwares primary product. Their licensing costs are wildly reasonable, even before the vmware debacle.

    They have gone from "a guy" to a 100 person company in the last few years while sticking by the FOSS ethic entirely. You can build the project from source, or even grab a few github scripts that build it for you. They have always been open and clear about letting you build it and use it however you like.

    They know how to cut this abusive behaviour off. They are fully capable. They don't want to use those tools, legal or technical, because it goes against the spirit of FOSS, even if it's to stop someone else who is abusing the spirit of FOSS.

    Being good people, they are using "name and shame" first, and are even so kind as to leave the "name" part out for now. I expect that they may make some changes down the line if the org, and maybe others playing this same game, dont play nicer.

  • Those of you that have negative sentiments towards AI: What would you want to happen right now?

    Jump

  • Perfect? Who said anything about perfect data? I said actually fact checked data. You keep movimg the bar on what possible as an excuse to not even try.

    They could indeed build models that worked on actual data from expert sources, and then have their agents check those sources for more correct info when they create an answer. They don't want to, for all the same reasons I've already stated.

    It's possible, it does not "doom" LLM, it just massively increases its accuracy and actual utility at the cost of money, effort and killing the VC hype cycle.

  • Those of you that have negative sentiments towards AI: What would you want to happen right now?

    Jump

  • That's how they work now, trained with bad data and designed to always answer with some kind of positive response.

    They absolutely can be trained on actual data, trained to give less confident answers, and have an error checking process run on their output after they formulate an answer.
