Services are currently drop POP3 support. Gmail and Microsoft among them. I would consider it obsolete.

IMAP is very much alive but has so many pain points that JMAP was created to replace it, along with CardDAV and CalDAV for calendar and contacts.

Fastmail created and uses JMAP and Stalwart has first-class support for it.

    If this is primarily fixing old issues, over time we should see a sharp drop off and then even fewer security fixes then before due to fewer being introduced, due to being caught by AI upfront.

    On the other hand, if AI is introducing more issues than it is resolving, we’ll see the baseline of security issues being found permanently addressed.

    He’s referring specifically to local RAM used to run local AI models, whichl he argues is unused most of time. Say if you use your local AI for 4 hours a day, it’s idle for 20. Where the same model in a cloud might serve users across time zones 24/7.

    It’s a similar argument about private car ownership, where a car might be used 5% of the day for a lot of people while 95% of the time it requires storage space, aka a parking spot somewhere.

    Does your city have emotos regulations that seem effective? Let me know.

    I’m on a Transportation Commission looking at drafting regulations. I’m looking for specific ordinance language that works.

    In 1993 in St. Louis, Lou finds himself living outside the law and estranged from his Jewish family. He risks visiting his cousin Susan, a psychiatrist, whom he hasn’t seen in years, and invites along his Black girlfriend, Lili, who arrives at Susan’s home before he does. Susan has been recently divorced from her husband, Nick.

    In less than ninety minutes real time from Lili’s arrival, the lives of these four characters unravel before our eyes.

     

    AT&T claims the reason their router, the BGW320-500 sometimes factory resets itself is because it’s designed to do this in response to unexpected power loss, and if the house didn’t lose power, the power strip / surge protector may be at fault.

    Which I don’t doubt might be the case, I have old, cheap, generic power strip.

    So recommend me a power / strip protector you trust with your uptime. While I don’t need a UPS, I wouldn’t mind /some/ battery backup to smooth over brief power issues.

     

    This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

    Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

    Feature table for Amazon Q Developer appears to show "Peace of Mind" as a feature option for both the "Free Tier" and "Pro Tier", but the box is checked for neither tier.
