Strangly said but really they are just saying focus on the problem not the person.

Not sure why you need to convince anyone. Sure you like to run a team by concensus but that is not always possible. Some times you just have to make the call or run it up the chain to have some VP make the call and get people in line.

There is always a good argument for symplicity and AI is not simple and has uncertain security.

Similar thing with IDEs and editors when coding. I have always prefered an editor except when the IDE does exactly what I want which is often not the case.

I am saying it is our winner take all society that over values a few at the expense of the many. The existance of the prize is a good example in itself.

The idea that credit is so important is an artifact of the system. Sharing is its own reward. Most so called inventions and discoveries are things that others have already done or will do anyway but get no credit for. This is from someone who has published peer reviewed papers and has many patents. I still believe the credit issue is largely bullshit. The exception is that yes you kind of have to play the game to work the system and it is important for that reason.

Knowledge cannot be stollen. That concept is human fabrication. Knowledge is meant to be shared and once share is flow freely.

The Girls school issue. This is simple. The Iran war was in most aspects rushed, unplanned, unwise, and impulsive. This is about leadership.

The problem. You cannot lie to an agent, but you can remain silent. Your also taking an action with a known consequence and an action that is not allowed.

This is not mysterious. You do not have to unlock your phone if it uses a password which is something you know, but you cannot delete your data. This has always been a well known rule.

I know HR policy where I worked was specifically that you had to be working at the next job grade level before being promoted. The downside of that, mangement sometimes abuses this. So you have to be proactive too.

It is also often better to apologize then asking for permission when striving to do the correct thing.

Basically agree. AI helps but it still needs an expert to get the job done. There are so many times AI just does strange stuff and you have to know enough to know when it is just wrong. I think we all constantly encounter that.

Great. Any time someone has a successful business that supports Linux somehow it is just terrible. I always wonder if these are these real people or just FUD from competitors trying to make Linux support undesirable. Sure I prefer FOSS, but I’m also happy there is some commercial game support. Maybe I’ll use it some day, maybe I won’t.

The 4 year upgrade cycle is too short on one hand. On the other, critical software like Firefox is too old even then so I have to use a flatpack for that which does not integrate well. I am using Debian 12. The other option is that Mozilla does have a debian repo but that is harder to setup.

Yes humans are terible at multitasking.

Not at all. The Volt is great. No major issues. Not sure why your loosing your shit over something you seem to know nothing about.

Over bloan. Software does not age but security does. Other things that do not age well is specialty tech hardware components. Batteries are a question too.

I know my volt at 10 years does not have a viable oem battery replacement (back ordered and nutty price). I can get a reasonable after market battery though.

Yes good analogy. Just my guess. Been a long time since I actually worked in the field.

There are various designs of backlights. They typically have a stack of loose components in an assembly. By loose I mean not totally fixed but not too free. They have to free float enought that temperature changes do not cause issues. They also have to not stick, warp, or buckle over time. Harder to engineer then you might think.

So consider what might happen if for example the top backlight film might buckle some then stick to the back of the lcd. The film might deform which would change its optical properties. Then later thermal cycling might cause release. It might do same elsewhere.

Not saying this is mechanism, but just example.

Edit: Keep in mind the LCD is glass, and the backlight components are plastic. Very different thermal expansion coefficients. Then add LED or CCFL lighting and you have a big changing heat source. Add on top of that humidity changes too.

Backlight I think. Probably film pack warp / buckle / wetout. Just a guess.

Edit: Worst part looks kind of like a wrinkle.

Sounds to me like the backlight behind the LCD. They have components which could potentially sag, stick, or warp. White screen is probably best way to see. Also look at various angles. May be more visible at some angles then others.

Hard to unsee. I know this feeling. I used to work in the industry years ago. Displays are never perfect and hard to unsee things once you see them especially when it was part of your job.

See the edit to my comment. If not sharp, could be warping of films in backlight.

That is an interesting one. LCDs as far as I know do not usually burn in and if it is moving then it is not really that anyway.

I will interested what others come up with?

Edit: Is sharp or gradual. Might be warping of films in the backlight for example if not sharp. Just a thought.
